The Cursed Prince

Chapter 143 - Great Minds Think Alike



Mars smiled sheepishly and opened the carriage door for them. He almost forgot his surroundings, busy with his thoughts about a winter wedding and their future babies.

He got out first and then waited to help Emmelyn down the carriage. When they were about to enter through the castle's main door, they saw two horses galloped from afar heading in their direction.

"That must be Heron with the royal physician, Your Highness," said his coachman.

Mars remembered he ordered one of his soldiers to get Mr. Vitas to come because Emmelyn couldn't breathe earlier.

He was happy to know that the soldier was swift and could arrive with the old physician by the time their carriage reached the castle. He planned to reward that particular soldier with gold.

"Good evening, Your Highness," Mr. Vitas came down from his horse with the help of the soldier. He bowed down to the prince and Emmelyn. "I heard Her Highness is unwell?"

"Yes, please come in. It's cold outside." Mars took Emmelyn by the hand and walked with her inside. Mr. Vitas followed. The soldier who came with him helped him carry his bag.

Since the royal physician was really old, Mars took Emmelyn and Mr. Vitas to his study on the first floor. He didn't want to tire the really old man by climbing the stairs to their chamber.

Roshan immediately came with a servant to bring hot tea for them in a pot and three cups.

"Thank you for coming, Mr. Vitas," said Mars after he sat on his seat. He pulled Emmelyn to sit next to him. Together they listened to what the old doctor had to say.

Mr. Vitas checked Emmelyn's pulse, heart rate and asked her questions about her symptoms. Mars listened to the examination, feeling nervous.

He only found out from the examination that Emmelyn, even though she looked tough on the outside, apparently had a weak heart.

"Hmm.. so, you've had this condition since you are a child?" Mr, Vitas nodded his head over and over again and took note of everything that Emmelyn told him with a quill and paper from his bag.

"Yeah, but it's nothing..." Emmelyn rolled her eyes. "As you can see, I'm healthy."

"Yes, you are healthy when you are not triggered, your highness," Mr. Vitas replied calmly. "I just ask you to never forget your potion and have plenty of exercise during your pregnancy."

"Exercise how?" Mars furrowed his brows. "It's too cold outside."

Winter would arrive in a few days and he wouldn't have the heart to let Emmelyn go out to workout. He had even asked the girl to stop training with his soldiers after she got pregnant.

Mr. Vitas cleared his throat and spoke in an as-a-matter-of-factly tone, "Well... there is plenty of exercises that both Your Highness could do indoors."

[Wait.. did he mean sex?]

[Indoor exercise for couple... was he talking about sex???]

Emmelyn immediately gave the prince a side-eye, while Mars' eyes went round in surprise. He really had nothing to do with what the royal physician suggested earlier.

'It wasn't me,' He pleaded with his eyes, trying to defend his innocence. 'I didn't ask Mr. Vitas to tell us to have sexercise during your pregnancy.'

'Hmph. Like hell, I would believe you.' Emmelyn rolled her eyes so hard, they almost fell out of their sockets.

'I did ask him to tell you that we had to have sex every day to make sure we can conceive. I am guilty of that. However, not for this one.' Mars shook his head.

'I KNEW IT!' Emmelyn crossed her arms on her chest.

The royal physician didn't notice the couple's mental bickering. He wrote something on his notes and then gave it to the prince.

"Your Highness can look for this lady. She studied in the far east and brought a meditation technique that she called yoga. It can be a really good indoor exercise for you."

Mars accepted the note, looking dumbfounded.

Apparently what the doctor meant by indoor exercise was... real exercise.

He had assumed wrongly. And so had Emmelyn.

Mars and Emmelyn tried to hide their blushing faces by pretending to look at the ceiling and the wall. Apparently, they both had the same dirty minds.

Mars blamed his perverted thoughts on his sexless nights for the past week.

Tonight, he just realized how much he missed being intimate with Emmelyn because the first thing that came to his mind when Mr. Vitas suggested exercise was their vigorous lovemaking.

He always considered it a good workout to start his day or to end it.

Ahh... he missed it so badly. Now he wished Mr. Vitas did prescribe sex for Emmelyn in order to have a healthy pregnancy.

"Ahem.. noted, Mr. Vitas," Mars cleared his throat and folded the paper neatly, and put it in the drawer. "I will send Roshan to find her tomorrow."

"Another thing to note, Her Highness must not be stressed. Her heart is weak and having stress during pregnancy is risky for her health," Mr. Vitas put all his equipment back into his bag and then closed it. "I will send some more vitamins and herbs for Her Highness tomorrow."

"Thank you, Sir," Mars patted the old doctor by the shoulder. "My men will take you home in a carriage. It must feel uncomfortable for you to ride that horse in a hurry just now."

"It's okay. I'm glad to be of service," replied. Mr. Vitas with a smile. "Then, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave, Your Highness."

"Yes, thank you for coming. Safe travels."

After the old doctor took his leave, Mars and Emmelyn exchanged glances. 

"You were thinking what I was thinking!" Mars smiled broadly.

He was so happy that they were thinking alike regarding the sexercise part, and especially because he could read her mind when they were sharing the same thoughts.

Gosh, he missed holding this woman in his arms and kissing her all over.

Did she miss him too? So that her mind went in that direction earlier?

Did she also secretly hope Mr. Vitas would prescribe them sex to help with her heart condition?

"You pervert," Emmelyn muttered under her breath, but she was smiling faintly.

"You are a pervert too," Mars replied lightheartedly. "You were thinking the same."

Emmelyn could now confirm that pervertedness was indeed contagious. She had missed sleeping with the prince by her side. The huge bed felt so, so empty and cold without him hugging her.

Maybe it was time to invite him to come back?

DO YOU WANT MASS RELEASE 15 CHAPTERS?

If yes, help me win the first spot in Win-Win this March. If "The Cursed Prince" can top the event and become #1 book in both ML and FL sections (male and female sections), I'll throw in 15 chapters mass release on March 31.

JKS's book: "My Vampire System" from the ML (male lead) section has always won the event from the beginning. Last month he got 2500 buyers. If we want to win, we'll need to cross that number.

Usually, I get 1200 privi buyers from this book. So, I'll need around 1300 more. You can help! All Privi tiers count, including the first tier of 1 coin. If you want to help me win the event, you just need to spend 1 coin for the 1st tier.

You don't have to unlock the chapter in the privilege and just wait for those chapters to become regular chapters. 

As a reward, IF we do win in both sections, male and female, I will give a mass release of 15 chapters on March 31. I know it's hard, but it's not impossible.

If you help me, I'll happily work harder and stockpile to make that mass release happen.

If you want to see the Win-Win ranking,  you can go to The Cursed Prince book synopsis and check the Win-Win status. Check my paragraph comment.
