Chapter 7 LIVIUS

It was around four in the afternoon when he finished signing the documents for the day. He couldn't help but massaged his temples as his headaches.

Because he had been rushing and doing a lot of work so that he can be with his wife, his health had been forgotten.

Livius stood up from his chair and stretched his body. He took his jacket from the chair and put it on. He looked around the office and sighed, it wasn't an easy job to be the leader of such a huge family.

And for the sake of feeding such a huge family, he can only take the burden and strive for the best. At the age of thirty-nine, he was finally not alone and found his other half.

When others of his race found their mates at the age of eighteen, he wasn't that fortunate. Besides he wasn't in a hurry to start a family as he was a man on a mission.

But when his mission was finally done, he still didn't manage to find his soulmate. He watched his other family members find their own, starting their own families and having children.

Years passed and there was still no sign of his beloved one. He ended up giving up and simply thought that maybe he was cursed and this is the reason why he still couldn't find his own soulmate just like the rest.

But who knew that at age thirty-nine he finally met his beloved, even though she is a little bit different, he was still happy to have found the person he was going to spend the rest of his life with?

Livius's assistant, his right-hand man walked into the office and slightly bowed, "the car is ready."

Livius heard this and nodded his head to show that he has heard it. After that he followed his assistant out of the office and on the way, the several secretaries all greeted him and he responded with a nod.

The two took the elevator down to the basement parking where the car was waiting for him. One of the bodyguards opened the car door for him and he entered inside.

The driver didn't delay and drove the car away, the car he was currently in was in the middle while one car was in the front and the other at the back.

It could be seen that Livius was a man of great importance. Livius had closed his eyes as he wanted to have some rest. He didn't want to meet his beloved with such eyes.

At the apartment, Venus had finished taking a second bath and put on something warm. Her husband was going to come and fetch her. he had promised her last week when they last met that he was going to take her to his place.

She was quite surprised to hear that the place where she spent the weekend and, on a honeymoon, phase was not his real home but a place where he stays when he is in the city.

This simply showed her that her man was very rich and that fact was quite exhilarating for her.

Venus looked at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction. She was wearing a pair of blue jeans and covering herself with a fur coat to hide from the cold.

When she was done checking herself and making sure that her dress and makeup were on point, she walked toward the living room and sat down on the couch with her phone in hand.

She checked the time and grimaced, she didn't know what time her husband was going to arrive as that man was a workaholic.

Venus began to play with her phone as she waited for her husband to arrive. Luckily, she didn't need to wait for a long time as she heard the doorbell ring. Venus was so excited that she stood up quickly and rushed to the door.

When the door was opened Livius came face to face with a flushed young lady that made his cold heart race. He looked at the beautiful young lady who had stolen his heart at first sight.

He looked at the young girl who smiled at him before throwing herself at him. He embraced her tightly and planted a kiss on her forehead.

Venus was in a very good mood but when she thought of how this man-made her wait for hours she pouted and this cute action was noticed by Livius who couldn't take his eyes off her.

"What's wrong darling?" he asked as he took her inside the loft.

Venus snorted as she looked at him and then looked away. She knew that she was acting childish but she couldn't help it. This man had not called her for days and she was simply so pissed at him.

"I am not talking to you!" she harrumphed at him.

Livius who had never been in a serious relationship before couldn't help but look at his young wife who was throwing a tantrum. How was he supposed to know why she was in this mood and acting this way?

[Livius, as a man you are supposed to coax our mate! Ladies need to be loved, showed concern, and just embrace them. You can't let our mate suffer any hardship!]

Livius grimaced as he listened to his other half in his head. As much as he didn't want to listen to this voice, he thought that in the end, the voice in his head was speaking the truth.

He had never gone wrong by following it, they were one. The voice was him and he was it. He looked at Venus who was still facing away from him. Following his instincts, he hugged his wife from the back.

Venus had been waiting for Livius to take some action but couldn't feel anything. She knew that Livius was not like any other men she had seen out there. He was like a statue, if she had not thrown herself at him that night, she didn't know how long she would have to wait for him to make a move.

"Don't be mad at me, okay! If I have done something wrong then please forgive me. I will do my best to change it," Livius softly spoke and his words poke her heart greatly.

Her face was now flushed while her heart was racing like crazy. Livius could feel her heart beating so fast and he couldn't help but smile.

Venus didn't want to make things worse and spoil this great day because of her willfulness so she turned around and looked at her man.

She raised her hand and touched the scar on the left side of his face. To her, Livius was a handsome man, one she was in love with but for others, he may be the source of nightmares.

Love is in the eyes of the beholder after all.
