Sahara looked up at Matthew, staying silent. He pulled back a bit and put his hand down on her face and smiled. âWill youâ¦Think about it?â
Seeing him like this, Sahara wasnât wanting to be a harsh person. She could see his breathing being a lot more rapid and that his hand was sweating. His eyes were nervousâ¦So, she nodded.
She watched him breath out rapidly, as though he had been holding it in, and she couldnât believe that prince charming was having difficulties with someone like herâ¦
What could I possibly give him?
After a short silence, following that thoughtâ¦Sahara actually started to wonder if she really did undervalue herselfâ¦But, how could she not!
As flashes of memories entered her mind, Sahara felt herself get angry. She had been ignored, had to be independent, had to learn things the hard way and on her own. Then, having so many things happen to males that she knewâ¦Even in this life, what about Talonâ¦Even with this prince charming, hasnât he got problems as well!
âThen be bad luck for me, Iâd still want to be with you!â
Stunned, Sahara suddenly felt like an idiotâ¦What to do? She even felt heat grow in her cheeks!
âSahara?â Matthew asked, having watched her go silent, he had waited patiently for her to doâ¦Something! Anything!
Sahara looked around, and due to this, remembered what she was doingâ¦Again! âAhâ¦Right!â
Sighing, she touched Matthew and teleported once againâ¦Arriving back to where the General was.
Matthew quickly shielded her eyes, but Sahara already let out a laugh, âHeâs not even healed yet!â
She forcefully takes his hand away and walked up to the sleeping couple on the bed. Even though, it could be possible that some âdeedâ may have happened, there was still no clear indication.
Honestly, Sahara was worried. What if the ashâ¦Thingâ¦Was contagious? If something had happened, she really would prefer to look now and make sure that everything was alright. Andâ¦The longer she left things, the more work she had to do!
Sahara didnât really care to much for nudityâ¦Well, you couldnât see anything anyway, as the two of them were covered by a blanketâ¦
Sitting back on the bed, in a tiny and uncomfortable spot, Sahara touched the ladyâs forehead first and closed her eyes.
After about ten minutes, Sahara let out a breath of relief and nodded. She wasnât in a dire need for help. Her exhaustion will start to vanish soon, and she was sure that since her husband was now better, her malnourished body will only get better. But luckily, no ash was found in her body, so, it didnât seem to be contagiousâ¦Thatâs of course if they did do the âdeedâ. It seemed rather too personal to check if there was an âextraâ substance in a certain areaâ¦So, all Sahara could do is check to see if there was any ash substance elsewhere.
Sadly, it was probably just easier to see if they did the deed, because it seemed that the ash wasnât given by touch.
It would have made things so much easier to know some things first! She was a doctor, what was there to blush about!?
With just a quick look, Sahara felt so much better. She felt pretty positive that the madam of the household was going to be alright.
After that, and saving her spiritual essence for the real patient, Sahara put her hand over the Generalâs head and began to heal him once againâ¦
Matthew was so shocked that his mouth was hanging opened!
âSâ¦Sahara!?â He whispered.
What the hell are you doing!?
Matthew was livid!
How can you just walk into a room with a naked man!?
Even though Matthew had no evidence that the man on that bed was naked or not, Matthew couldnât help but think the worst!
Knowing that his beloved woman was a free-spirited person, there were still some lines you shouldnât cross!
Unable to speak, for more than one reason, Matthew wasnât able to relax at all!
***
After an hour passed, nothing had happened, and the two bodies were happily sleeping, while Sahara started to sweat and finish healing the Generalâs body.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
All the ash was now cleared, and she had been able to bring back to âlifeâ, some of the dead, brittleâ¦Areas. And she had yet to fix the wall to his dantian, as he was basically a wastrel at the moment, but she wanted to fix him up one hundred percent!
Doing all this, easily took another hour and just as Sahara had finished, the General rolled over and hugged his wife, giving off some strange noise, as he drifted back to sleep.
Sahara let out a quiet laugh, shaking her head.
Her work was finally complete, as the Generalâs body was not skin and bones anymore, heâs physique from before he had contracted this âcurseâ had returned, and it was even better than before. She knew it because it was like stretch marks, there were signs on how big things used to be. She had never actually seen a picture of the General beforehand, nor met him in person either, but it didnât mean she couldnât get any idea how he used to look like. It really was amazing, the human body!
His dantian hadnât come to what it was though, which upset Sahara. She could feel that the way the General was, before he had got the âcurseâ, had been really quite formidable, she assumed it to be of at least at rank five, minimum.
But nowâ¦He had plummeted to become a rank two cultivator, and that was the best that she could do, she had no idea how to make him rank up to what he was beforeâ¦But, he wasnât a waste anymore, he most certainly can cultivate again!
Teleporting to Matthew, Sahara sees that Naruto was outside the window and looked pathetically unhappyâ¦
While she had been concentrating, Matthew had a glare fight with the fox and he had just stayed outside, waiting.
There was no way that he was going to take one step inside, Matthew had uttered silently to the fox. But he had been extra nasty because of Sahara doing what she had just done! He wasnât able to keep his rising anger in and had vented some of it out onto the poor, little foxâ¦Of course, this venting wasnât life threatening, it was just glares. Matthew knew that Sahara cared very much for the fox, so he wasnât going to bring any kind of injury to itâ¦
Naruto, having been stuck outside for a good hour, had even been glared at for whimpering!
Now, he looked like a child that had been sitting in the corner for a while, and now wanted to come out and have some cuddlesâ¦
âNaruto?â
Matthew walked into her line of vision and said, âCan we go now!?â
âMmm, heâs better now. His wife is fine too, I checked her, just in case.â Sahara said, moving around Matthew and going through the windowed area. She picked up Naruto and pat him, as he dug his head away from view into her arm.
Ohâ¦Poor thing!
Grumbling came into her hearing and Sahara turned to find Matthewâ¦Looking like Naruto just did.
She laughed and patted him on the shoulder. âThere there.â
Sheâs hopeless!
Matthew took Saharaâs hand, that she had patted him on the shoulder with, and kissed it.
If I leave some kind of mark on her, will she never do that again!?
But just being able to kiss her hand, made him feel betterâ¦He thought, as he slowly let her hand go again.
Sighing in his heart, Matthew calmed down and found himself distracted when he looked back up at her.
Wow, thatâsâ¦So romantic!
Sahara went beat red! Just one small, little action andâ¦
In all her experience, not once had a man ever done that to her!
Blinking, Sahara tried to find her composure againâ¦But it left herâ¦
Ah, heâs really like a prince charming!
Seeing the reaction of his Princess, made Matthew feel proud. He was most definitely someone that wanted to entice a lady to want more of something. Heâd finally seen something that might be a weakness to his Princess!
Staring at her red, adorable face, Matthew smiled. He was having the best day!
Sahara finally looked away from him, only blushing more now, because she had been so taken to his actionsâ¦And looks!
âI want to see the animals.â
This will help me calm down! No looking at the man! No looking at the man!
Trying to act herself, Sahara looked everywhere else but him, and finally found something down a hill. It was a horse paddock and she disappearedâ¦To appear right near it.
Animals, come save me!
After ten minutes, Naruto and Sahara were finally back to themselves, and they were finding new friendsâ¦
Matthew shook his head to her happy face. But he didnât do anything.
Sighing, he could only watch and wait, that maybe one day, the adorable woman would come to him.
Unable to think of more important tasks anyway, he walked a bit closer, sat down and watched the silly Princess and fox pat and talk to the animals.
It wasnât strange, that the animals didnât seem to listen to Sahara, but they listened to Naruto, which made Matthew unknowingly enjoy his time even more. He knew that he should try to like that fox, if he could teach it to protect and make sure it listens to himâ¦
What made Matthew frown though, at a time, was that his Princess seemed to be a lot better with animals then peopleâ¦Thinking back to her past, he could see why.
Did she dislike people in general now? Perhaps I should somehow turn myself into an animal, I might get more of her attention then!
When an hour had past, Sahara had gone into the stable and had even fallen asleep against the hay.
Matthew sighed to this, wanting to put his Princess into a bed.
âHave I an extra guest?â
Matthew turned to see the General, âAhâ¦â
Remembering what Sahara had done, not too long ago, Matthew looked away, not able to say anything more.
âShe can stay, donât worry yourself, Iâll get someone to keep an eye out for her.â
Matthew looked back at his friend and smiled, âThank you.â
It was really good, to see Shaun walking and looking normal again. After the shock of such a difference from the last time that he had visited, he expressed his happiness to the Generalâs good health.
Shaun widened his eyes, âI should be thanking you! Wasnât it you that brought her here?â
Narrowing his eyes, Matthew shook his head, ââ¦If I didnâtâ¦Then who did?â
Silence overcame them, when they realized they had no idea how this had taken place!
Smiling, to the strange fate, Matthew couldnât help but say, âWhoever brought her here doesnât matter. I am glad you are alright again. Iâll make sure that she knows that we are very grateful for her help.â
Laughing, Shaun slapped Matthew on the shoulder, âOf course you will!â
Already, the General knew that Matthew was talking like a married man, almost like it was his given right to pass information onto the little lady like any husband!
Frowning at Shaun, Matthew said, âYou have misunderstood!â
âSure I haveâ¦Ohâ¦Thatâs right! She doesnât even know that youâre the Second Prince! How are you going to let her know about that!? And her eyes! My boy, sheâll be great on the battlefield!â
The General couldnât help but imagining how his enemies will stop at the red eyes, making it easier for him to cut them all down!
Laughing, the General put his hand out in front of him and then put it into a fist. He felt so good to be alive again! He couldnât wait for the next fight already! Who would be the first he could spar with!?
Sighing, Matthew went silent. He still didnât know how Sahara had gotten red eyesâ¦
