nNathan then tried to kiss her one more time on the lips and decided that they should go home.

nHand in hand, the two walked out of MJ City and directly entered into the black Bentley that's waiting for them in the private parking lot.

nThis time, Hiro was driving the car while the two were sitting on the back seat of the car. The partition was already up to give them privacy.

nNathan looked at Kim Eunji whose eyes were closed and her head was leaning against the head rest. He frowned as he felt like Kim Eunji was sleeping in an uncomfortable position.

nHe found this habit of hers, which was sleeping on the car no matter how long or short the trip was, admirable. It was like she didn't have any trouble sleeping at all.

nHe decided to unbuckle Kim Eunji's seatbelt and made her head to rest on his lap. He then decided to grab some spare blanket and placed it over her body.

n

"Drive carefully. Your Mistress is sleeping.

" Nathan reminded Hiro.

nAfter a thirty minute drive, they finally arrived at Nathan's residence.

nAs soon as the car stopped, Kim Eunji also woke up.

n

"Are we home?

" Nathan smiled the moment she said home. That only means she already considered his house as hers.

n

"Yeah...

" He then helped Kim Eunji to return to her sitting position. He helped her in fixing her hair and fix any wrinkle on the dress like a doting and pampering fiancé that she deserved.

n

"I'm sorry. I didn't know I had fallen asleep.

" She then apologized to him.

n

"It's okay. I had a great time appreciating your beautiful sleeping face anyways. So, let's go? You must be tired for you to fell asleep immediately the moment the car drove off.

" Nathan remarked.

n

"I don't know. I just found your presence very comfortable which made me fell asleep when you're around.

" She explained.

n

"Is that so?

"

n

"Yes.

"

nAfter their quick chat, Nathan and Kim Eunji went out of the car. As soon as they went out of the car and the view on the entrance made Kim Eunji to frown. It was almost eleven in the evening. Most of them should be getting ready to sleep since they still had to wake up early.

nThe servants were patiently waiting on the main entrance of the manor. Though most of their heads were down, they could not hide their happiness over the news.

n

"Good evening Bai-sama! Good evening Kim-sama! Congratulations on your engagement!

" They greeted in unison.

n

"Thank you. Mina-san, you should be sleeping now. It's already late, isn't it?

" Kim Eunji pointed out.

n

"Your Mistress is right, you should be retreating in your quarters by now.

" Nathan agreed.

n

"Oh my gosh! Let me see the ring!

" Rin who had just arrived in the scene immediately rushed to Kim Eunji's side to look at the ring not minding that she was gasping for air.

n

"Rin, isn't it already passed ten o'clock? You should be in bed by now.

" Nathan pointed out in a serious tone like a big brother scolding his little sister.

n

"Gomin Bai-sama but I just can't contain my happiness when I heard the news of your engagement with Eunji-sama.

" Rin reasoned.

n

"Aiyah! Just give her some slack. Who told you to spill the news of our engagement at this hour?

"

nKim Eunji's statement made Nathan speechless.

n

"I didn't.

" He uttered.

nHiro who was standing at the corner was guilty. Rin had been bugging him days before which made him slipped one day and accidentally told her about Nathan's supposedly secret proposal plan.

n

"I'm sorry Master. It was me who accidentally slipped and had given Rin some clues about your proposal.

" Hiro came forward to apologize. He's afraid since Nathan was so particular with details.

nSince Nathan was in a good mood, he did not scold Hiro but instead gave him a gentle reminder.

nAfter they chatted for a while, Nathan then lead Kim Eunji to her room, or shall we say, their now room since Nathan had been sleeping with her ever since.

nHe then left her as he had something to arrange in his study for his trip tomorrow morning.

nKim Eunji on the other hand utilized the time to have a warm shower. Wrapped in her black bathrobe, she walked out of the shower and entered back into the room then walked in the walk-in closet where he saw Nathan choosing his pajamas.

n

"Done?

" Nathan asked.

n

"Mm.

" Kim Eunji only hummed as she set her eyes on the particular nightgown. It was a pink satin gown. But the gown was pared with a beautiful pink lingerie.

nNathan watched Kim Eunji picking up her nightwear and gulped hard.

nHe watched Kim Eunji removing the tie of her robe and let it slipped off her shoulder and then eventually dropped off the ground.

nShe was completely naked as she stood and looked at Nathan's bluish green eyes.

nHer heterochromia eyes were like two black hole sucking Nathan's soul.

n

"Out.

" Kim Eunji said but Nathan only raised his brow as if asking her why.

n

"Can't you see? I'm changing here.

" She explained.

n

"Love, why do I feel like you're instead tempting me to pounce and take you here?

" Nathan teased and quirked his brows.

n

"Stop being so full of yourself okay? I'm serious.

" Kim Eunji said as she picked up the robe from the ground and wore it back.

nBut then, before Nathan could even react, Kim Eunji pushed him out of the walk-in closet.

nNathan had no other choice but to leave and do his thing. He had completely forgotten that Kim Eunji could be a tease sometimes.

nAfter he was done showering, Nathan walked out of the shower wearing a white robe on his body. He frowned when he saw Kim Eunji changing the bandage on her surgery wound on her side.

nBut that's not what made him frowned, he frowned when he saw Kim Eunji's forehead. It was covered with huge beads of sweat.

n

"Love, are you okay?

" He asked but Kim Eunji did not budge. She continued what she was doing and only looked up when she's done.

n

"Eunji! Are you okay?!

" He suddenly asked in panic. He thought that her wound must have been aching while she was cleaning it herself.

n

"I'm fine. This is nothing.

" Kim Eunji then subconsciously placed her hand on her stomach as she looked at Nathan.

n

"My Aunt Flo came to visit me.

"

n

"You're on your monthly period?

" Nathan asked her. He had heard his mother using Aunt Flo as a reference when she's on her period that's why Nathan had an idea about it.

n

"Yes.

" Kim Eunji weakly nodded.

nNathan closely examined Kim Eunji's face. He knew that some women had it rough when this time of the month came to visit on the other hand some didn't have much discomfort having it.

nHe thought Kim Eunji belonged to the former.

n

"Is it painful?

" Nathan asked as he tried to wipe off the beads of sweat on Kim Eunji's forehead.

n

"I can manage.

" Kim Eunji shortly replied.

nShe had no energy to talk with him as he's already occupied by the pain that she's feeling ill.

n

"Are you sure?

" Nathan asked. It's not everyday that a he would encounter someone having bad cramps so he had to make sure.

n

"I'm stronger than you think Nathan.

" Kim Eunji was stubborn.

nNathan then changed his clothes and left to go downstairs.

nThere's no way he would let her be in that condition.

nHe then prepared a hot mixture of brown sugar and water to ease her pain. He also brought hot compress to put on her abdomen.

n

"What's that?

" Kim Eunji who was about to sleep was surprised to see Nathan carrying a tray with a small bowl in it.

n

"Drink this, this may help your cramps. Mom would usually ask me to prepare this when it was her time of the month.

" He explained.

nWithout any hesitation, Kim Eunji drank it in one gulp. Not minding if the solution was still hot or cold.

nAfter drinking, she placed the silver bowl back on the tray and then adjusted her position to lean on the headboard.

nHowever, Nathan had other plans. He shifted Kim Eunji's body so that she would be leaning on him instead.

nHe then placed the heating pack on her tummy ad he said,

"You should have told me that you have your time of the month today. Had I known, we should have not stayed that long in the cold earlier and not let you drink and touched something cold.

"

n

"I didn't know it was coming either. I'm used to having it on an irregular cycle. Like sometimes I had it now and then will have it after the next two months.

"

n

"Would that be okay?

" He asked her worriedly.

n

"It's normal...I...guess. I don't know.

"

n

"Have you visited and expert before?

"

nHe frowned when Kim Eunji shook her head.

n

"Before you board the plane tomorrow, I'll arrange you to see a Doctor. She's a friend. You don't have to worry about it.

" Nathan assured her.

nAfter some time of applying the warm compress on her belly, Kim Eunji had managed to fall asleep.

nNathan then carefully shifted her body back to the bed to not wake her up and then tucked her underneath the covers.

n

"Goodnight my beloved.

" Nathan said and then kissed her lips.

nHe then stood up and walked towards the shower room to have another round of cold shower.

nWhen he come back he sighed when he saw her tightly hugging his pillow.

nHe then slowly removed the pillow off her and then let her hug him instead.

n

"I love you.

" He uttered.

n

"I love you too.

" Kim Eunji suddenly responded and scooted over towards him.

nAnd their first night of as an engaged couple was spent that way.
