***Nation of Mist, Great Sea***
“I am wet!”
No seriously! The water is everywhere! Ascathon bombarded our castle with water-balls until it fell. I doubt that he held back in any way.
It took me an hour to get the sand out of my hair! Haah... at least I can take a nice nap now. I leave the bath after putting on my nightgown and throw myself onto the bed of my room.
“Nice ass... was that an invitation?”
I turn around and pull the blanket over my body while shooting up. Ascathon is sitting on the couch with a big and heavy book in his hands. “What are you doing in my room!?”
“Our room.”
“My room!”
“There aren't any more rooms in the mansion. We have to share.”
“Then stay on the couch. If you touch the bed I will rip off something important!”
He shakes his head and continues to read his book while I eye him with suspicion. But after half an hour I get tired and lie down to sleep. It was a busy day after all.
While trying not to think about the guy in my room I drift off to sleep.
…..
….
…
..
“AAAaah!”
I shoot up and am standing in my bed one hundred percent awake. Assassins? Why the scream!? What's going on?
The stars and the full moon are bright tonight and the big windows let just enough light inside the room to make my surroundings visible.
Then I become aware of a dark figure wriggling on the floor. Haaah.... It's the stupid hermit with his nightmares again! Does that mean that I won't get a single night of sleep while I am on this island!?
I jump from the bed and try to shake the idiot awake. “Hey. Wake up!” But after shaking him it seems that his bad dreams just became worse because he starts to wriggle and moan even more.

Geez. What to do? Should I hit him to grant him eternal sleep? Suddenly his arms shoot out and hug me to pull me down to his side. Seriously? I start to wriggle myself out of his grasp. I am no hugging doll!
“Don't leave me...”
He mumbles something while his breathing smooths and his expression becomes relaxed again. Haah... I can't bring myself to wake him up now.
I untangle myself from his embrace and walk back to my bed. So tired. Just a few more hours of sleep. That should do it.
…..
….
…
..
“AAAaah!”
I am upright in my bed with my arms raised sluggishly for defence. So tired! Where is the enemy!?
Then my eyes fall onto a wriggling person on the ground and my mind catches up with the situation.
For a few minutes I stare grumpily at the guy on the floor while I ponder about my options. Then I stand up and shake him like before while dangling a pillow in front of me.
*snatch*
“Don't leave me...”
Like expected. I turn and throw myself onto the bed. Just an hour of sleep... just one hour...
…..
….
…
..
“AAAaah!”
I yank up again with burning eyes and feel anger welling up from deep inside me. This is the worst wedding night ever! My eyes wander to the wriggling figure on the ground.
The pillow is a metre beside him. I stand up and loom above him while considering my options for the third time.
If this goes on I will get no sleep at all.
…..
….
…
..
***Ascathon's POV***
Aaah. That was the best night of this life. The nightmares stopped at some point and I had a good dreamless sleep. I open my eyes while the gears in my head slowly start to turn again.
Then I realize that something is definitely strange. Shouldn't I be lying on the hard couch? Why am I in the soft bed while lying on my back?

And why is that black haired devil using me as a body pillow while hugging me from the side?
“What the fuck happened last night?” I start mumbling to myself while some pearls of sweat appear on my forehead? Did we do it?
“Shut up or I will crush you....” Celestial mumbles while strengthening her embrace and pressing the air out of my lungs.
“What... WHAT HAPPENED?”
Celestial looks up to me with bloodshot eyes and tears on her face. “You will take responsibility!”
“Res... pon...si...bility?”
“Shut up! You know what you have done!”
Nooo! I don't know! What did I do in my sleep!? Did I blow it? Were a few years of frustration bad enough to loose my control?
Kane told me that I should use the situation and fuck her until neither of us could stand any more. Then I should make a run for it and disappear under some stone for the rest of my life. But I am not a guy like that!
Will I be a papa? With HER as mama!? What did I do to deserve this fate!?
***Celestial's POV***
It has been a few days since our first night and our small trip is coming to an end. Even though it was pretty horrible I could somehow turn the situation to my favour.
I didn't mean my first words after waking up like that and the horrible sleepless night just added to my appearance and his misunderstanding.
Though I didn't bother to clear the misunderstanding up after he came to the wrong conclusion. This gives me even more leverage on him.
It's actually strange that he fell for the oldest trick in the book. Just sleep with a guy and act like something really horrible happened in the morning.
He will go ballistic and lick your feet. Kukuku. I might have secured the upper position in this relationship.
I hum while I walk back towards the big living room. But upon arrival I realize that nobody is there. Strange. I didn't find anyone throughout the whole mansion?
There is just a little paper on the desk. Hmm...
Dear Celestial,
I arranged a sneaky departure while you were taking a bath. The others are deceived by illusion-magic. They think that you are safe and sound with us on the ship.
Thanks for always taking so long! It's really reliable.
Don't think of me as a fool. I found out that you weren't really pregnant and planned my revenge ever since!
Maybe a few weeks on an isolated island will bring you to terms. Enjoy being beached for a while. I think I will find a way to explain your disappearance to Violetta and Liandra.
Maybe you are lucky and Fingulf decides to visit his vacation-island. Though I doubt that because you frightened him so much. I will inform him about the demon who is sealed on his island.
Sincerely yours,
Your dear husband!
“~Kukukukuku......~”
***Ascathon's POV***
I smile delighted while I see the island vanishing on the horizon. My little scheme worked out perfectly. Even now everyone thinks that Celestial is in her cabin while dealing with sea-sickness.
“That's strange.” A seaman at my side points towards the horizon and reaches for a telescope at his belt.
As he points towards the island I see a fast closing cloud of white exploding water. I squint my eyes with a feeling of dread as I spot a figure in front of the explosions!
It's Celestial! She is kicking the water with such force that she is actually running on it! Holy....
A moment later she reaches the ship and jumps on deck with a perfect somersault, landing right next to me.
I force a smile onto my face. “Hi, dear! How unexpected to see you again so soon...”
She turns and grabs my clothes while smiling and lifts me a few centimetres into the air.
“....Kukukuku... ~Dear~ We have to talk!”

Also English isn't my mother language so any advice or correction is welcomed.
