BXBX NOVEL Chapter 175 - Working Together
"Are you awake?" He asked with a smile.
Anya turned to hear the sound. When she saw Aiden, her cheeks immediately flushed remembering what they had done earlier. She immediately pulled the blanket over her entire body, not daring to look at Aiden.
Aiden chuckled seeing Anya. This was not their first time, but for Anya, it was her first experience of being conscious. That's why she felt embarrassed.
Aiden sat on the edge of the bed, "Anya..." He called softly.
"I-… I want to wear my clothes. Can you come out first?" Anya stuttered as she said this, not daring to remove the blanket in the slightest.
Aiden lifted the edge of the blanket and put his hand inside. He found Anya's leg and pulled her out of the blanket.
Anya still tried to cover her face even though her entire body, without any bandage, was visible. Her hand gripped the edge of the blanket tightly.
"Anya. You cover your face with a blanket so you can't see me. But I can see your whole body." Aiden said while looking at Anya.
"Aiden! You...You pervert!" Anya immediately got up from bed while still holding the blanket. She was so embarrassed!
However, it seemed that she was still so exhausted that her legs couldn't hold her back.
Aiden immediately caught Anya's body, wrapped her in a blanket and picked her up, "Tired? I've prepared warm water for you." Aiden took her into the bathroom.
Anya let Aiden carry her to the bathroom because she was so exhausted that her own legs felt like jelly.
The bathtub in the bathroom was filled with warm water. Steam was still rising, making the room look hazy. Anya still felt embarrassed to look at Aiden so she hid her face on Aiden's shoulder.
Aiden kissed the side of Anya's face gently, "Are you still embarrassed?"
In response, Anya simply buried her head in Aiden's shoulders even deeper. Aiden chuckled at the sight. He lowered Anya's body and slowly placed her in the bathtub filled with warm water.
Upon touching the warm water, Anya breathed a sigh of relief. The warm water made her limp body feel alive again. Aiden took a small chair and sat beside the bathtub. His hand held Anya's face, turning Anya's gaze to his.
"Anya, I can see you now." Aiden's eyes looked at Anya with love.
Anya stared wide and looked at Aiden happily, "Is it true? Are your eyes okay?" Anya asked.
"Hmm ... When we unite, suddenly I can see light from my eyes." Aiden kissed Anya on the cheek as he said, "Anya, you are my healer."
Anya immediately shifted her gaze shyly and slightly pushed Aiden's chest with her hand, "You must be lying to me!"
"I don't lie. The doctor who told me that if I am in a good mood or I am happy, my recovery can be faster. I'm really excited today." Aiden said seriously.
"Have you really recovered?" Anya asked excitedly.
"I don't know. If I wake up tomorrow and I can't see anymore, you can heal me again." Aiden said with a mischievous smile. He looked closely at Anya, did not take his eyes off his wife at all, "I already said you are my healer. As long as we ... "
"I don't want to." Anya hugged him nervously and interrupted Aiden's words.
She didn't want to do it again. Aiden was truly like a beast. Even though she didn't feel as much pain as the first time they did it, she felt her energy was drained. She couldn't match Aiden's stamina and ended up falling asleep from exhaustion. After waking up, her whole body felt limp.
She wouldn't be able to keep up with him if Aiden asked her for it every day!
"You don't want to help with my recovery?" Aiden asked, raising his eyebrows.
Anya wanted to answer, but suddenly her head felt dizzy. Her face looks a little pale. Seeing Anya holding her head, Aiden immediately looked worried, "What's wrong? Are you dizzy?"
Aiden had been holding himself up too long so he went too far this time, making his wife feel dizzy. The man felt a little regretful. Anya must have felt her whole body tired that she refused to do it with Aiden again. He should be able to hold himself.
"If you want to do this again, you better think of another way to recover your eyes." Anya said with a frown.
"Forgive me. I couldn't help it and have been waiting too long. Next time I'll be careful. I won't force you if you don't want to. I'm just too happy to see you after my world has been dark all this time." Aiden said casually.
"I don't want to help you. I'm really in pain." Anya said while sulking like a child.
Aiden listened patiently and kissed Anya on the cheek, "Where does it hurt? Let me see."
"No! I'll rest for a while and then it will recover on its own!" Anya refused directly. How could she show Aiden the part that hurts? Just imagining it made her feel so embarrassed!
Aiden poured warm water on Anya's shoulder which was not submerged in water. He also helped gently soap Anya's shoulders and hands, not daring to use any of his strength for fear of hurting Anya.
Anya became even more restless and nervous. She curled up while covering her body like a ball, "Can you come out?"
"Can you shower yourself?" Aiden asked worriedly.
"I am very hungry. I haven't had lunch earlier. Can you find me some food? I'll come out after I finish taking a shower." Anya felt uncomfortable with Aiden's presence there.
Even though they were husband and wife, she still felt embarrassed when others saw her body.
Aiden's eyes swept across Anya's body as she tried to cover up, "I've seen them all. Why should you be ashamed?"
"No! I'm still embarrassed. Come out quickly." Anya hit the surface of the water in front of her, making the water wet the floor.
Aiden just laughed when he saw her, "I'll be back after ordering food."
Anya's face turned red. She didn't say anything and didn't dare look at Aiden who walked out.
After Aiden left, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. She stretched out all over and leaned back in the bathtub, closing her eyes. After her whole body felt a little more refreshed, she stood up and grabbed the end of the tub to get out.
However, as she stood up, she felt the floor before her spinning. She closed her eyes for a moment and when she opened them again, the dizziness eased a little.
She got out of the bathtub cautiously and put on slippers and a towel to wrap her body. Suddenly, her vision darkened.
"Ahh!" Anya shouted when she felt herself falling. She waved her hand, looking for any object to hold her body.
Meanwhile, Aiden felt uneasy so he immediately ordered food and returned to the bathroom. He was afraid that Anya would pass out if she was left alone.
When he opened the bathroom's door, he saw Anya's tiny body shaking and was about to fall to the ground.
He immediately rushed to catch her and pulled Anya's body into his arms.
Anya's head hit Aiden's chest and smelled her husband's scent. Unconsciously, her hands hugged Aiden tightly because she was so shocked.
"Thank god I'm here." Aiden immediately picked her up and walked out of the bathroom.
Anya leaned weakly in Aiden's embrace, "I haven't eaten lunch and had no strength. Who do you think made me like this?"
"I remember using a lot of energy. You just lie down and enjoy what I do to you." Aiden said, kissing Anya's cheek with glee.
