My Annoying Duke's

Momentary happiness

When they reached the palace the next day, Nicole immediately did her usual activities. He went to the stables to see their two horses. Vale went to the palace to report to the King about the invitation from Dalles.

"Lady, you'd better not go riding like you used to. I'm afraid it's gonna rain." Elisha said worriedly. He sometimes looks up.

Nicole looked out. The sky looks so bright. It would not rain, he thought. "It doesn't seem like it, Elisa. The sky outside is very bright. I went riding for a while. I want to feed the air around this pine forest. I've never been around it before. I wonder what King Phillip used to do here" Nicole said happily.

Elisha nodded. "Alright Lady, be careful. And quickly go home because I'm worried."

Nicole takes out her horse and begins to wander through the towering pine forest.

"I think I should go home." Vale said when he and Juan were at the palace. They're planning something.

"Has something happened? Between you and Nicole?"

Vale looked at Juan. "What do you mean, your majesty?"

"Rarely do you want to go home soon. You've only been here a while. Now you want to go home quickly." Juan looked suspiciously at Vale.

"It looks like it's going to rain. That's why I'm going home fast." Vale clearly while looking at the sky.

"Unfortunately I can't let you go home. You're gonna have to keep me playing cricket for a second."

Vale sighs. If the king asked for it, he could not do much. "All right."

It was almost late in the afternoon when the rainstorm finally stopped. Vale decided to go home because the situation was safe. The rain had subsided and the King had rested. As his horse approached his palace, he felt that something was amiss. From a distance he could see Elisha was anxious. Elisha was never like that. He knows it. Did something happen to Nicole? Nah!

Vale sped up his horse. He jumped when the horse stopped. "What's up Eli?" Ask worried.

"Lady, Mylord. Lady hasn't been home since noon."

Vale widened his eyes. "Where?"

"He went as usual with his horse." Answer Elisha

"Horses? Did Nicole run away?" Vale never wanted that to happen. He looked at Elisha without any intention of letting go.

"No. Lady just wants to go around this forest."

"Why did you let him go alone?"ask Vale angry.

"Mylord, Lady almost goes every day on her horse. But he only left for 30 minutes. This time, however, the Lady was gone for a long time. Night is almost here but Lady is not home yet. I'm concerned. The Lady cannot leave this palace because she has brought nothing. Please bring Lady home, Mylord. I'm really worried."

"I'll look for him." Vale answered while riding his horse. He'll find Nicole even to the end of the world. He must have found it.

Other place.

Nicole woke up with a heavy body. He fainted from the cold. The sounds of animals began to sound. Nicole hugged her own body that was shivering with cold and fear. He doesn't know how to get home. The road to the palace was very far away and he did not know where he was. He walked before the rainstorm came. This time there was no way he could walk because of the bruises.

His favorite horse was lost when he was kept and tied to a tree. In the end he took refuge in a shady tree when the rain began to fall. And the storm ravaged the plants around it. Honey, that big tree can't hold rainwater. He was still wet and cold. He wants to go home. Her crying and coldness were meaningless. No one can help him.

"Mylord" he cried.

The Vale horse was speeding up at high speed. He knew all the areas here because his father often invited him to hunt.

"Nicole!" Call Vale tight. He continued to sharpen his gaze in all directions. From a distance he could see Nicole's horse looking confused. Coming down. Vale went around looking. Nicole but could not be found. He tied Nicole's horse in the tree.

"Nicole!" call echoed.

Nicole turned her body over because she heard a voice calling out to her. He stood up holding a tree behind him. Coldness drains his power. He drowned and sat back down waiting for anyone who could help him.

"Nicole!" get Vale.

Nicole is shocked to see Vale on her horse. He looks very worried. He saw Vale get off his horse quickly.

"Vales. Found me?" Isak Nicole's. When he got up, his body went limp so he fell down. Vale ran over to Nicole.

"What's going on?"tanyanya worried

"I saw your horse there!" vale answered while pointing at the place where Nicole's horse was.

"Can you stand up?"he added.

"My feet hurt."

Vale saw Nicole's leg bruised. He's surprised. "What's wrong with your leg?"

"So when I was looking for a place to shelter, I was hit by a falling tree branch." Nicole said as she coughed occasionally.

Vale lifts Nicole's body. "We're going home now. Hot body. You have a fever." he said.

"I'm sorry I worry you so much."

Vale looked at Nicole. "What matters is that you're okay."

Vale took Nicole quickly. He didn't want anything bad to happen to Nicole.

Upon arriving at the palace, Nicole was immediately brought to the room and given direct help by Vale and Elisha. Elisha looked very worried.

Vale looked at Nicole who had fallen asleep.

"Lady will be fine, Mylord. He only had a fever because of the rain. You don't have to worry. His leg wound was already on the line. You don't have to worry." said Elisha, carrying a basin of water. "You want dinner?" tanyanya back.

"I don't feel the appetite. You out. Let me take care of Nicole. Maybe he'll feel comfortable if when he wakes up I'm next to him."

Elisha smiled. "Alright, Mylord. Good night."

Nicole felt her body warm. He opened his eyes slowly. In front of her eyes was the body of a man who was holding her. Nicole moved slowly. At once his eyes were open. Vale was staring at him. "You're better?" He asked while holding Nicole's forehead. His body temperature is normal.

Nicole nodded her head. He tried to let go of his embrace. Vale also loosened his hand. He let Nicole wake up from her sleep. "I want a drink." Nicole said.

"I'll get you. You stay here." Vale saw the teapot next to him empty.

When she walked back into the room, Nicole was sitting next to the bed. He looked at Nicole without moving. His heart was beating fast.

"What's wrong?"ask Nicole worried. He walked and sat next to Nicole. Nicole could see the doubt in her husband's eyes.

"Can I ask you something?"ask Vale doubtfully.

"Yes, say." Nicole said calmly.

Suddenly Vale held Nicole's hand. "I want to sleep with you tonight."

Nicole was surprised but then she smiled. "All right, let's do it." Answer's calm.

"Are you going to be okay?"

Nicole held both Vale cheeks. "Yes"

Hearing that, without a second thought Vale immediately grabbed Nicole into his arms. They began to learn all the meaning of marriage.

As morning approached, Nicole slowly walked out of Vale's arms, smiling as she recalled what Vale had done last night. Vale treated him very carefully despite doubts. He felt loved and he loved her. He is happy that his love is reciprocated.

Nicole comes out of the bathroom and approaches Vale, who is still asleep. He smiled happily. This morning it will make the best breakfast. He'll make food for Vale. The best food he ever made.

While humming in the kitchen, he started cooking. Elissa who saw it was also happy to see her loved ones happy. He left Nicole. Let him make food for his loved ones. If he saw that, he was eager to tell the Duchess. Suddenly he saw Vale descending in a hurry. Face pale. Elise followed.

The man then approached Nicole and said he didn't know. A second later he heard a loud slap on Vale's cheek. Nicole looked at Vale's face angrily. His face was red and tears had fallen on his cheeks. He sees Nicole running out without being chased by Vale.

Elissa ran after Nicole but the figure had disappeared. However, he knew where the figure was. He walked towards the horse stables. He heard sobs being held so as not to be heard from outside. Elisha came in and found Nicole's face looking chaotic. He looked at Elissa while crying.

"Darling.." said Elisha while staring sadly. Nicole whipped at Elissa's arms in tears. "Crying, boy!" His whisper..
