Not A Honeymoon

It didn’t take her long to make her breakfast, which was coffee and Pancakes with maple syrup and a bunch of strawberries. Eryna always made two servings, one for herself and the other for Simba and today was no different.

“Here! You can eat this one,” She gave the other serving to the butler.

“Me? How can I…”

“Sigh, Just accompany me while eating, I don’t like eating alone,”

It had been less than a second since Eryna said that when she felt the atmosphere around her froze up.

“How dare you step into the kitchen?”

Micah stood in the door staring at Eryna with a bloodthirsty gaze.

‘I thought I would have a peaceful breakfast but it seems like mother nature doesn’t want that,’

“How could you let her in?”

Micha directed his anger toward the butler as well who lowered his gaze.

“I was hungry so I cooked up something for me, please don’t scold him,”

“I don’t care if you were hungry or not, Get out of here,”

‘SIGH, This…’

“Fine, Uncle Shaun could you get me my cell phone please, I have a call to make,”

Micah’s gaze froze on Eryna when she uttered those words, he was confused about what she was about to do.

The butler walked out in a hurry and came back with her cell phone,

“Where is it? “ She swiped through her contacts.

‘What?” The butler asked in a mumble.

“I can’t find Grandpa’s phone number, He asked me to tell him whenever I needed something. I am going to ask him to build me another kitchen as his grandson doesn’t want me to use his.”

‘Yes, I know how much you are scared of your grandpa, and I will use him against you for as long as we are together,’

Eryna peeked at Micah’s flushed face when she spoke those words, he walked in closer and took the phone out of Eryna’s hand before she could do anything.

“That, you don’t have to disturb him for these small things, he is a busy man,” Micah turned her cellphone off and placed it in his pocket.

“Sigh, then how am I supposed to make food for myself?” Eryna spoke in a dejected voice.

“Go on, use it however you please,” His teeth were tightly clenched and his face was serious like an ice block. He turned around to walk away but stopped at the sight of food. He readily picked the plate of pancakes and walked out without permission.

“This, put that back, I made it with so much effort, how could you just take it from me?” Eryna followed him with an angry expression,

Micah stopped midway and Eryna, who was walking right behind him, bumped into his back.

“Ouch…” She rubbed her nose and stepped back.

“Why did you stop all of a sudden?”

She spoke angrily,

Micha didn’t answer her and walked back to the kitchen, he leisurely picked up the coffee cup and walked out again as if it was the most normal thing he could have done.

“You thief!” Eryna shouted, and this time Micah turned around with a stoic face,

“Thief? This is my house, My kitchen, my food, How can I be a thief?”

“This-This shameless person!” Eryna stomped her feet in anger while Micah walked away calmly.

The atmosphere of the dining room was extremely cold, Eryna and Micah sat on the opposite side of the table with food before them,

The butler had given up on his serving to calm the battle between the two, Eryna dug into the pancake mercilessly and bit into it harshly as she stared at Micah, who was reading his files at the breakfast table.

It was quite a scene for the housemaids who had just walked in through the main door, some had stopped breathing while the others were on the verge of collapsing at the sight of their Master eating breakfast in the mansion.

Eryna had cleaned up her plate and got up to walk away,

“Clean up the mess you have made,” he growled.

Eryna who had already made up her mind to clean up the kitchen got upset at him telling her what to do, she rolled her eyes back at him, she parted her lips.

“What if I don’t?”

Her face was painted with an arrogant look,

“What did you say?” Micah rose from his chair with an angry expression.

Eryna’s expression suddenly changed from arrogant to a timed one and she parted her lips again, but this time a soft voice escaped her mouth.

“Oh, Grandpa you are here?”Eryna spoke in a soft voice as she gazed past Micah.

“Ha, You think you can fool me twice?” Micah spoke coldly.

“Micah! How dare you treat her like this?” A grave voice spoke from behind Micah that made him freeze, his face darkened as he stared at Eryna who had a victorious smile on her face.

“Grandpa? Why are you here?” Micah fixed her expressions and turned around swiftly.

“Why do you think I am here? I wanted to see how badly are you treating your wife,”

He spoke in a voice filled with anger.

“It’s a Misunderstanding, I was just…”

“Silence!... I know I have arranged this marriage for you two, but that does not mean that I will let you do whatever you please to that innocent child,”

He roared at Micha on which he hung his head low.

‘Did I get too overboard? Now I kind of feel bad for him,’

Eryna looked at Micah’s hanging head and thought to herself.

“You are going to take a break from work and spend time with your wife…”

He spoke again.

“No! grandpa I don’t want a break,”

Micah’s eyes trembled as he rejected his grandpa's words.

‘Why is he overreacting, he only told him to spend time with his wife—NO WAY!’

When Eryna realized that the wife grandpa was talking about was her, she was at a loss for words,

“Yes, grandpa there is no need for that, it would waste a lot of his time. Let’s do that another time,”

Eryna sprinted over to grandpa’s sides and hugged his arm.
