The Ultimate Trilogy

21. Captive Like an Exotic Bird in a Golden Cage

Yu Zhenzhen exploded, "Who's your princess consort? I just received news of my freedom to choose, and yet you act so annoying. I'll say it for the last time, let me go."

Natsu Sin ignored her words as a nostalgic smile appeared on his face, "You're going to love the county of Natsu. It feels like summer all year long."

Yu Zhenzhen snorted, "Too bad for you, I'm a winter bitch all year long."

He burst into laughter, his eyes flashing with amusement, "If princess wants, this prince can make it cold all the time."

Yu Zhenzhen was going to retort but her words died in her throat when she heard the ones coming out of his mouth, "And can warm you up with my things."

"Nasty! Only you," she pointed at him and pointed at her sixteen year old body, "Would want to screw this potato-like figure."

I'm kidding! This body is voluptuous without troubles! I just have to lie to get rid of this weirdo, she mentally apologized to the original Yu Zhenzhen.

"Potato huh? Why don't we have some fun so that I can verify whether or not it qualifies for that category..."

"No!" Yu Zhenzhen screamed when he started unlocking the cell door. "Stay away or I will curse thee!"

He opened the cell and slowly walked inside in a menacing manner. He tried reaching for Yu Zhenzhen, but thanks to her small body, she agilely dodged his attempts.

He sighed and threw her a blanket he had hidden with a jesting manner, "I only said my things, you just assumed I meant to sleep with you."

Yu Zhenzhen's face turned bloody scarlet with embarrassment. She shielded her face and mumbled incoherent words.

Natsu Sin only laughed again and walked outside, "Sweet dreams princess."

On his way with his back turned he added, "If you actually want me to sleep with you, I'm only a yell away..." He paused and turned around with a wink, "Though my innocent self will only cuddle... I can let you take advantage of me though."

Yu Zhenzhen flipped him off and he shook his head in feigned shock, "You don't want this deliciousness?" He pointed at himself.

"Not in this lifetime or any lifetime! Now piss off and let me sleep, Sin gege," Yu Zhenzhen mocked.

He saluted and left leaving Yu Zhenzhen alone with only her thoughts to keep her company.

Here is the full chapter without the preview. I've also decided that I'll post the next chapter's preview in the previous one so I don't have to unpublish and republish things.

So here is the preview for

chapter 22: confessions

"Your lordship," A man bowed to Nangong Longwei in respect.

Nangong Longwei didn't acknowledge his greeting and only asked, "Have you discovered where that bastard has kept my wife?"

The man was silent making Nangong Longwei angrily bang his fist on the table, "Useless! I expect her location in the next few hours or heavens forbid what I will do."

The man bowed, unfazed by his lord's behavior. After all, ever since meeting the princess, his highness' cold self had gradually developed a temper that shocked everyone in Nangong Manor.

Though they weren't pleased about the temper, it was still better than him monotonously commanding with a cold voice. Their lord had finally managed to show an emotion.

"Yes my lord," the man said calmly. He swiftly exited and left Nangong Longwei by himself in his study.

Nangong Longwei looked at the portrait of the woman in front of him. In the painting, she smiled at him like like she was the brilliant sun.

In reality, she would always keep a scowl whenever he was near her. But a scowl was better than her dull face and closed eyes. For the past two months, he, for the first time, felt useless.

He had secretly sneaked the most exclusive and best physician in all of Yu, his physician, to check on the princess' condition. The doctor's analyzation told him that there was a problem with her soul, but he couldn't figure out what.

Nangong Longwei scolded him for not healing and took him back. From that moment on, he had personally watched over the princess every night until it became a habit. When the princess' maid found out, she was shocked, but she knew he was only doing it out of concern hence agreeing to keep quiet about it.

When he heard that she had finally woken up, he was exhilarated. He had barely managed to keep himself in control at the morning court from seeking her.

But all this time, a question roamed in his head-why?

Why was he even caring about her and her business? Why did he feel useless whenever she was in a coma? Why does she make him feel a foreign feeling in his chest? These questions, he will personally ask her whenever he takes her back from that bastard. Which bastard? The only one that actually had the guts to take his wife-the foreign prince...
