Chapter 97 That's my wife you are talking to... Part 1

The dazzling sun shined brightly illuminating a lazy relaxing weekend. Some slouched lazily. Some yawned, tossing and turning around, still in bed. But things were not so peaceful all around.

"If you don't agree with this, get the hell out of my house, you witch!" Luther yelled, throwing a plate full of delicious-looking food directly aimed for Su Lin's face.

"You ungrateful bastard. Do you think I won't do it?" Su Lin smoothly dodged the incoming missile and smirked at him.

She then lifted a jug full of water and returned the favor.

Luther was now dripping wet from top to bottom.

His white hospital gown, now transparent from water splashed all over him didn't do any favors and beautifully showcased his chiseled muscular chest.

"Have it your way asshole. I will be your wife for a year. In return, I get your entire bank balance." Su Lin scoffed angrily and walked upstairs to her room.

.....

24 hours earlier .....

Luther slowly flickered his eyes and woke up from his deep slumber, accompanied by a whole lot of confusing vague memories of vividly pleasant dreams.

Drops and drops of burning hot energy seemed to endlessly trickle inside him.

They completely burned his body from inside out, invoking a soul-crushing gut-wrenching pain, but he was somehow able to bear it all.

He was able to bear it all, but only because of her.

Her gaze... Her loving gaze never had never once left him.

Petals of warm kisses fell on his body and erased any trace of pain he had felt.

He had in fact never felt more energetic in his entire life.

And the woman who he thought he would forever have to forget, was gently kissing him with infinite warmth and love.

Her gentle eyes drove him crazy and he could no longer control himself.

He pushed her soft body down and devoured her like a starved hungry animal. He ravaged her lips and continued punishing her pure body with all his might.

And somehow, it still didn't feel enough. He needed more of her.. a lot more...

This paltry meal he ate only drove him more hungry, crazy, and energetic.

He was just about to nibble on her lips again when a rough pair of hands disturbed him and rudely invaded their privacy.

He bit his lips in frustration and unwillingly opened his eyes, only to find 6 sturdy men, his so-called brothers, standing around his bed gaping at him in shock and awe.

Luther woke up abruptly and fumbled the empty space next to him, hoping to find a naked Su Lin. But for some reason, she was not there.

Not only that, but she also wasn't even present in the room. A shade of disappointment slowly crossed his face.

Reality slowly dawned on him, as he recollected the transpired events.

What the hell? How... How on earth did they cure my complete paralysis?

Luther jumped out of the bed, testing the extent of his recovery.

"Slowly bro." Monkey moved closer, intending to assist Luther, which 2 seconds later was very apparent that he didn't really need to do.

The joy of his complete recovery lasted only for a few seconds when a second thought popped into Luther's mind.

Was that all a dream...? He wondered.

It was just then that Su Lin got back after her morning workout.

She walked into the room, took one indifferent look at Luther, and then signaled Monkey, asking him to meet with her outside.

In reality, she just didn't know how to face the man, she had inadvertently 'raped' when he was unconscious.

The sweat from the workout camouflaged her burning cheeks, as she quickly shut the door on Luther's perplexed face.

Doesn't she even care if I am ok? Luther felt a tinge in his heart.

Monkey excused himself and when outside when Rabbit and Squirrel relayed to Luther everything that had happened.

"So its some mysterious precious herb she found in the bottom of an ocean?", Luther asked again to confirm the ridiculous information he had just heard.

He obviously, knew that she was talented. She was talented enough to slay a mighty demon like the male-patterned baldness!

But she was talented enough to help someone recover from complete paralysis? That was just downright unbelievably ridiculous!!

After overcoming this initial shock and awe, feelings of warmth and gentleness surface on Luther's face.

This woman... she has saved his life once again...

Was there even a point in running away from her anymore? Could he really do that even if he wanted to?

The minute he had leaped in front of her, offering himself to the God of death, in her place, everything had become crystal clear to him.

That woman... He had already fallen hopelessly in love with her...

But why is she not paying any attention to me? She saved my life, but I saved hers too, damn it!!

Luther sulked like a small child and interrogated Monkey when he returned after chatting with Su Lin.

"She just wanted some cash for traveling bro. That was all." Monkey briefed him and moved on to check his body, for any signs of irregularity.

Luther abruptly pushed him aside and rushed outside, half-naked with his hospital gown swaying in the wind.

"Bro... Bro...", Monkey called after him and ran behind him.

And thus, after a mere 10 mins of back and forth, things unnecessarily got out of hand, and Luther ended up offering his entire wealth, in exchange for one year of marriage.

And Su Lin bit her lips, angrily accepting his terms, very clearly out of spite.

And the six others in the room scratched their heads and wondered... They could have just proposed to each other in normal ways right?

What was this game of cat and mouse? But, more importantly, who was the cat and was the mouse?!
