The Whisper Of The Sea

Vol 78s

Leona is currently in Edmund's arms, inside Leona's room. The sound of their breathing was heard inside that small room, only a small window became a light inside the room. They were still hugging while their breathing had started to gradually normalize.

Edmund was still hugging Leona, gluing her embrace. "How did you find this remote village dear?" tanyakanya.

"Hm, I found it just like that, even though the road was broken, I still chose to stay in this village, the chances of people looking for me to this village are very small. But you found it." Leona. Edmund smiled at it.

"Do you know how many villages I passed by to look for you? Fortunately I have a fever. Otherwise, I'll leave this village without finding you."

Leona raised her head. Her hair was loosely cut on the right side of her shoulder. "If you leave, maybe you'll never find me, I'm very good at hiding."

"Yes I know, you can even make a tree house and hide there, which is why I'm so worried about not being able to find you. If I go back to Cambridge, I'll give a present to the head of the guard, because he brought you to me."

Leona hugged Edmund and placed her face on his chest. "And strangely you can still do it despite being sick, and unconscious. Isn't that dangerous, what if that one isn't me, are you still going to attract another woman and sleep with her?" Leona said while hitting him.

Edmund chuckles. "That night I could smell your scent, though I was not fully aware, but I was sure it was you who was beside me, so I had no hesitation in taking you to bed at all, moreover, you called my name as usual when we made love.

Leona's cheeks were flushed. "I-I have to get up and prepare lunch, we're in the room all day, you don't even get to eat breakfast properly."

"I'd rather be like this, I still want to spend time with you in bed like this. It's been a long time since we've spent time like this because I was so busy at Cambridge, you didn't even let me touch you because you were mad at me."

"Mm, you're right. But can you still do it without eating anything? I mean your energy will diminish and your stamina will ....

"Do you doubt me, Miss Edmund?" Edmund said, raising one eyebrow.

"B-not so, but ....

Leona was unable to pucker, due to his provocation, Edmund once again proved he was able to do so, now that he had taken control of her lips and completely mastered Leona's body.

The woman walked in the garden of Alexander's residence. She was Edmund's stepmother. Although they already knew Leona's background, and learned that she was also a famous noble and had good relations with the kingdom. But the woman was still dissatisfied. He already disliked Leona, let alone the woman who had fought him like Edmund was staring at him with a hostile face.

He had to think of a way for the woman to be knocked out of Alexander's life. There were many other noble women who were willing to marry Edmund. Even though she is not Sofia.

"Prepare my traveling clothes, I want to go somewhere."

"Good Mistress."

we'll see how that woman gets out of Edmund's life. A noble and pirate princess? don't make me laugh. Edmund's father may have accepted you and lamented because of you but I didn't. I won't let your pirate blood end with Alexander's."

***

That day Leona cooked for the two of them. Edmund helps her cut vegetables next to Leona. Sometimes she steals Leona's kisses when she walks or Leona accidentally nudges her body in the cramped kitchen. And they will end up in bed just like that, and all will be delayed again because Edmund is reluctant to let Leona go.

After several threats, Edmund finally listens to Leona and they eat together."

"Leona, you still want to be in this village? Your father and the others want to see you, they're worried about you. What if we visit them. If you want, we can go back anytime to this village."

Leona nodded. "I want to meet Dad, Jastin and Ronald. I also want to meet Laura. He helped me a lot." Edmund stopped eating and looked at Leona with regret.

"I'm sorry Leona, I didn't know my decision hurt you so much." Edmund said, holding Leona's hand.

"Well, it was Kenan who took me to Laura's house. Did he say anything to you?" tanyakanya.

Edmund bowed and remembered his encounter with Kenan. "Yes, he told me with an angry face, only this time he was so angry with me, his angry face was creepy." He said, making Edmund laugh.

When Edmund was with Leona again, he really did not give up his supervision to his wife, even though Leona was washing clothes or was washing dishes, he would definitely help her, he would help her, Leona was repairing the garden in her yard. Edmund was beside her doing whatever Leona was doing.

"I'm going to the market."

"Wait a minute, I'm gonna put on my shirt, I'm coming." He quickly put on his clothes because he had been bare-chested since he had repaired the yard. Leona looked at him. Sweat ran down his forehead.

"Edmund. You're not tired? look, you sweat a lot." Said Leona taking her handkerchief and gently rubbing her sweat. She smiled and unhesitatingly kissed Leona when they were in the crowd.

"E-edmund you why the hell, a lot of people here." Whispered Leona while bowed in embarrassment as some people looked at her with smiles, even they nudged and gaped at each other.

"I just don't want you to disappear in front of me. I've had enough of your loss, and it's like it's killing me, making me have trouble breathing, and it's empty, everything I do is empty and means nothing when you're not with me. I just don't want you to leave me again." He held Leona's hand and held their fingers together.

"So, I can say I'll die if you try to leave me once again, Leona." Edmund.

"I-I wouldn't have done it if your stupid idea hadn't popped into your head. Tsk, I don't want to go, is it my fault? Blame that rule for making you think of marrying that frog woman." Leona said with annoyance. Although Leona was angry with him. Edmund did not relax his fingers at all, he even clasped them tightly.

"Here you go, don't talk about it anymore. What matters is that you're back with me." Leona.

They stopped at several stores and shopped for home necessities, as well as various items that Leona needed. A man suddenly greeted him. "Hi, weren't you the lady from yesterday?" Said a man she met at the store when she bought vegetable seeds.

"Who is Leona?" ask Edmund.

"Ah, forgive my impoliteness My name is Vincent Grey." Said the man his gray eyes staring at Edmund and the grip of Edmund's hand on Leona's hand.

"Include him Edmund Alexander, he's my husband." Leona.

"It's nice to meet you both." He shook Edmund's hand and he finally left.

"It's only been a few days in this village and now you have the acquaintance of a man?" Edmund looked at Leona while narrowing his eyes.

"Just happened to meet when buying vegetable seeds." Leona shrugged her shoulders and pulled Eemund back to buy other things.

****

There was a laughing sound from inside the room, the head of the bodyguard reported that Lady Leona had been found and that she was with Edmund in the village.

"Let them spend time together, let's just say they're on a honeymoon, so that as soon as I have grandchildren, I can't wait to hear their good news.

"You can go."

"Good sir."

****

The butler came out of Mr. Alexander's room and was going back to his post to keep watch. Suddenly, Mrs Alexander blocked her path.

"Head of Dean's bodyguard, how's my son-in-law? I'm really worried about him, can I tell you what village my son-in-law and Edmund are in?" Said Mrs Alexander with a sad face.

"Madam, they're in Leaf Village."

"Ah, really? Next time I'll visit them and bring some delicious food for my dear daughter-in-law." He left and left the head of the bodyguard who was still staring at him from a distance.

Mrs Alexander was giving a letter to the female servant in secret. "Take this, and tell him to do as it is written on this paper, half of it I'll give you when their work is done"

"Good Mistress."

A smile on his old lips.

this time Alexander's family can be saved thanks to me, they should be grateful for my hard work, I will pluck out all the weeds that tried to enter my family.

The maid wore a black hood that covered her entire body. That night he came to a small dark hallway, a hut guarded by a large tall man. After he arrived, the maid handed him the letter written by her Nyonya.

"Do as written in the letter, this is your payment. Half will the Madam give if your task is done."

"Okay, we get it, miss."

The waiter walked across the small passageway intending to return to the castle, as the atmosphere grew quieter. Someone pulled his hand and smothered his mouth and took him somewhere.

"Don't move much, if you still want to live. Do as we tell you, you understand."

"Good." The waiter said scared. He was taken to a gathering place for large ships and also there were pirate ships. An old man looked at him with a wrathful face.

"Say, what the Alexander Family is planning."

The moon shone again illuminated Leaf village, at that time, after they had dinner, the two were sitting on the terrace of the house while hugging to enjoy the beauty of the moon and stars scattered.

"I like you being with me every time Edmund. And when we're relaxed we can be together like this." Leona sank her head in Edmund's chest deeply.

"I like it too, spending time with you like this makes me forget about time, even time feels very fast going." The answer.

"Hmm yeah, one day if we go back to Cambridge you'll be busy again, instead of me forbidding you to do your chores, I'm glad you're spending time with your friends, too, but I want you to make time for me, and not think about work."

"Sure, if I do it again you can pull me and take me away from all that work. But it won't happen again. That time they were on a show, making me agree to a ridiculous marriage with that woman."

"Hmm I know, because I was there looking at all of you." Leona said sulking.

"really? I'm sorry, it won't happen again. I promise." Edmund. That night they enjoyed their time together and joked with each other, not knowing there was a group of assassins who were heading to Leaf village to eliminate Leona.
