Hope welcomed his kiss by parting her lips and circled her arms around his neck. His hands moved down to her floral dress, as he caressed her legs and then, thighs.
Now, his back was on the mattress while she was slightly on him. His one hand was still on the leg, which rested above his while his other hand moved to her back; his fingers. playing with the zipper of her dress.
When he was completely on the mattress and Hope hovered over him, he withdrew from the kiss. They both gasped for air, peering into each other's eyes. “You know, | like you,” Ariel said. “And my heart says I'll fall in love with you soon,” she whispered against his lips.
Her fingers tenderly caressed his face as she admired him. “I just want to have a family with you. I'll definitely provide you what you desire. After all, you've given me a life, where | can breathe peacefully,” Hope expressed her inner thoughts to him.
“| would love to find a lost family with you again. It’s on you how you win my heart,” Logan asserted. “And | feel you will,” he muttered.
Hope ended up smiling. “I cannot believe you are so soft. | mean, you were so angry the day you made me sign the contract,” she stated.
“That’s the way | work. I’m soft in front of a very few people. You are one among them,” Logan said as his hand stroked her hair. He drew her close and again kissed her. “And | cannot get enough of your lips. Kissing you has now become my hobby,” he murmured.
He pulled down the zipper of her dress along with the shoulder strap. Logan’s face buried in the crook of her neck as he repeatedly kissed a same spot, particularly where he left the mark on her. His fingers caressed her arm, making her feel better. “We need to go. There’s a ball,” Hope said as she pulled away this time.
“F*ck the ball. | need you,” Logan said.
“But | want to win the best couple prize with you.” Hope’s puppy eyes pleaded with him.
“We are the best. We don’t need any prize to believe in that,” Logan affirmed.
“No,” Hope insisted on him. “You were the one who told them we would go to the ball. You cannot step back like this,” she complained to him. “And if you don’t go with me, I'll go by myself,” she stated. Hope knew she would agree to accompany her to the ball if she talked about going alone.

“Then, you should go alone. | want to take some rest,” Logan said and let go of her. He moved away from him while Hope’s jaw dropped in astonishment. She didn’t anticipate Logan to let her go alone in the ball.
On the other hand, Logan knew Hope would not go without him to the ball. He wanted an alone time with her.
Hope stood up and zipped up her dress. “Fine. I'll go by myself,” she stated, causing Logan’s eyes to grow.
“You can’t go alone there. It’s a ball for the couples,” Logan stated but she just vanished. to the washroom. “She won’t go without me,” he murmured.
Hope finally exited the washroom after freshening up. She combed her hair and checked herself once more in the mirror. Logan only noticed her actions as no words. were exchanged between them.
Without looking at him, Hope went toward the door. She had made up her mind to go. to the call without Logan. Even if she had to stand alone, she would do..
“Is she really leaving?” Logan mumbled and got down the bed. He then heard the door closing as Hope had indeed left.
Hope, as soon as stepped out of the room, went ahead toward the elevator. “Logan should have agree to come with me,” she crossed her arms across her chest and shortly reached the elevator. Dropping her one hand down, she pressed the button on it and waited for it open.
After a few seconds, the elevator opened and she saw several couples inside it all were dressed for the ball.
Hope felt a bit insecure, but she just entered the elevator and it closed. ‘Every husband has accompanied his wife unlike mine,’ she thought.
‘But Logan is like this. He is merely attracted to my body now. | should deprive him of me. He should know how important I’m for him, Hope thought in her mind. The elevator soon reached the first floor, where in the Star Hall, the ball was organized.
Hope was the last one to exit the elevator and she saw how the couples were walking hand in hands with each other. She definitely felt low about it, realizing how Logan didn’t even try to come with her.
“Ma’am, this way please, an usher directed her to the hall, where the ball would be.

taking place shortly. She smiled and went ahead to the door.
As she walked in, Hope realized a whole new world was present inside. The ball room was decorated in a way that one would feel they had come to a kingdom’s ball of mediaeval era.

Hope heard the announcement and saw everyone prepared to go to the dance floor. Some didn’t show interest, but they had come to enjoy the ball.
“Where’s your husband? | thought you two are going to come together,” remarked the same lady from the elevator.
Hope peered at her and thought of a lie. “My husband is coming soon,” she stated and fidgeted with her fingers nervously.
The lady gave her a sa distic smile as if she caught Hope’s lie. “But | didn’t see your husband exiting the room,” she pronounced with a smirk.
Hope gulped and wondered if that woman was keeping her radar eyes on her.
“Well, it happens. | think your husband is forced into a marriage with you. Am | right?” the lady questioned her.
“N-No that’s not true. You assume too much,” Hope said. Hope then excused herself as she wanted to run out of that place. As she reached the door, her heel broke and the next second, Hope was on the floor.
Hope heard people laughing on her clumsiness, but she was kind of used to it. Tears did emerge in her eyes, but she didn’t let them fall.
“Who bullied my wife?” Suddenly Logan’s voice reverberated.
