Sebastian had been expecting an annoying grin or a chuckle from Alexander, knowing the man and his sense of humor. But unexpectedly, none of those came. And that was a shocking surprise - albeit a rather pleasant one.
He glanced at Alexander and saw him quietly refilling his own glass with a neutral expression. "Hmm… there are a lot of factors that could lead to that. But first, Sebby, are you sure you don't know the reason why though?" he asked, lifting his eyes to look straight into Sebastian's grey ones.
The look in Alexander's eyes was filled with genuine curiosity, something that Sebastian was totally not expecting.
Looking away, he stared up at the sky. This was strange to him, talking about such a private thing to someone else. Despite the amount of alcohol he had already downed to loosen up a little, his lips remained tightly shut. Alexander seemed to be aware of that though. And he spoke again as if he had already known in advance that Sebastian would no longer say anything more.
"If it's not because you had done something she wasn't okay with, then perhaps she might be wanting something else from you."
His words pulled at Sebastian's attention and his hand stopped mid-movement as he was about to take another swig of his drink.
"Maybe she wants it real and raw or nothing at all. My guess is because, knowing you, you're probably a little too shut closed even to her. Or you're not giving her the kind of trust and intimacy she must be longing for as your wife. And since I do know you, I believe you've been keeping her too much in the dark about all the more important things regarding yourself. I'm not really certain, as I don't know what's exactly the problem, but I believe the root is mostly because you don't say or explain a thing to her. You need to make her understand why you're not doing something or else she'd overthink and come up with an answer all on her own. And believe me, women are just geniuses when it comes to cooking up things. That would definitely lead to more misunderstandings. Though the best thing still is for you to communicate and don't try to read her actions and thoughts on your own. You wouldn't know her thoughts. Ask her why instead. Ask her what it is that she wants or what's the problem." Alex was watching Sebastian's face like a hawk as he explained in those lengthy words of his.
It had immediately dawned on Alex the moment Sebastian blurted those words out that Abi's suspicion was right all along. That Sebastian had never even kissed his wife yet, and that he never explained why. Abi was certain Elle already had feelings for Sebastian and he was also certain Sebastian was already a goner for his wife. The two desired each other, and so much and that was freaking obvious. So, Alex could only deduce that it was definitely the reason.
Alex later left Sebastian alone outside and returned to their room.
He snuggled straight into the warm bed and pulled Abi close into his embrace, unintentionally waking her up.
"Where did you go?" she asked in a sleepy voice.
"Just had a drink and chatted with Sebby for a moment."
Abi blinked her sleepy eyes before it suddenly turned alert. She then looked at him curiously.
Without her even needing to ask, Alex could already read the questions in her eyes so he began telling her about their talk. Well, he just could not hide anything from his wife.
"What did he say?" she asked and Alex sighed.
"He didn't say anything. But he didn't need to. I know he got the message. Let's hope he'd try to say something and explain to Izabelle. But I'm afraid it would really be hard for him to open up about those things. Even the alcohol was not enough to make him talk."
Abi smiled with a lot of hope. "Love will do the magic on him, Alex," she said with quite the confident tone and Alex grinned back at his wife before kissing her mouth.
"Absolutely. Now why don't you start doing your love magic on me too, my love?" Alex purred and she climbed on top of him, smiling seductively as all traces of sleepiness were gone.
…
The next morning Elle woke up early and since seeing that Sebastian was still deeply asleep in bed, she washed up and left the room and found Abi brewing some coffee in the kitchen. The two of them then went outside while drinking coffee and Elle was shocked at the scenery that appeared before her.
It was as though they were in the Alps, but she was quite sure they were not. To the east of the house, there was a range of tall, mighty mountains that had several dark peaks and an enchanting waterfall flowing down from it. To the west of the house, a vast field of flowers just spread before her eyes. Though they were wild flowers, Elle still thought they could not be more beautiful! To the north, there was a thick forest of pine trees that looked so cool and lush that it made her want to rush off to explore it as soon as she could. Abi and Alex's house was just so quaint and picturesque, situated in the middle of this amazing scenery - almost as though it were pulled out directly from a fairytale book! Theirs were the only house with ginger colored roof and white washed walls, while the other houses were the typical cottage styled variety.
Elle could not believe how beautiful the place was in daylight without the fog enveloping the entire village!
Too bad she could not stay out and watch the scenery longer as they needed to get ready for today's activities. She was not disappointed though, as Abi promised her that she would see the beauty of the village when they go out into town later on.
Later that morning, Alex and Sebastian were all dressed up impeccably in their royal robes while waiting for their wives to come out from getting themselves ready.
Sebastian looked bored as he sat there, staring at the mask that Elle had painted last night until he lifted his face and saw Izabelle coming out of the door.
