Chapter 46: Shared Feelings

"Mmm, so warm,"

Ember was lying on her husband’s chest and her fingers were gently moving across his abdomen.

She was having a great time, and a blissful smile was present on her face.

For the past 10 minutes, she had been touching her husband’s body, subconsciously, and a strange feeling was surrounding her heart.

"Mmm, a bit muscular,"

A small moan left her lips, and her fingers traced her husband’s abs, which were covered by his shirt.

’Yeah, yeah, touch them more. Since you are my wife you are allowed to touch me as much as you want,’

A smirk bloomed on Nellas’ face, as he moved one of his hands toward his wife’s hair and the other to her waist.

Currently, his mind was not focused on anything else but his wife, and her touch was sending jolts of tickles throughout his body.

"Mmm,"

Again, a moan escaped Ember’s lips, she was currently dreaming and wasn’t aware that she was not only caressing her husband’s body but also letting out cute moans.

"Haha,"

A chuckle left Nell’s lips, and he closed his eyes, allowing his wife to continue her action.

After a while, the woman suddenly moved her head, and her chin pressed on his abdomen.

’Is she awake?’

Nell wondered, and without hesitation, he opened his eyes and looked at his wife, only to see that she was not awake, and a red blush was tinted on her cheeks.

’How cute,’

His heart skipped a beat, and a loving smile appeared on his face, as his hands gently cupped her cheeks.

Then, after a short pause, his gaze landed on her lips and his thumb gently touched the pinkish-red softness.

’Her lips... they are so soft.’

He spoke in his mind and his thoughts were met with the system’s sudden response.

[Host is having a great time, isn’t it?]

However, before even reading the message, Nellas closed his eyes for a second before opening it and placing his head back on the floor.

He stared at the ceiling as a frown began to surface on his face.

[Huh? Did I do something I shouldn’t have done?]

The system was confused, and it didn’t understand the reason behind the host’s expression.

But, unbeknownst to it, Nellas was frowning because the system’s sudden message had interrupted the moment.

’An expert in ruining the mood.’

He was annoyed because just like the last time, the system had interrupted the romantic scene between him and his sleeping wife again.

It was as if the system was trying to protect his innocent wife from... Ahem... his dirty hands?

"Haaa~"

With a deep sigh leaving his lips, he retreated his hands and placed them on the ground.

He didn’t want to hold his wife anymore because if he did, the system would stupidly interrupt the moment again.

So, the best way was to let go of his wife and let her sleep.

’But, my wife really sleeps for a long time,’

Thinking that, he grabbed his phone which was placed on the table, and checked the time.

It was currently 9:46 AM.

’Shouldn’t she be awake by now?’

He thought to himself, but his question was immediately answered by the system.

[While on the streets, she didn’t get a lot of sleep, and her body is currently using the opportunity to have some sleep.]

The system was right, his wife’s body really needed some sleep to recover its energy.

Since she was really weak, she had to eat a lot, and this was the same with sleep.

"I see. Then, let her sleep,"

With that, Nell placed the phone back on the table, and his hand moved to the back of his head and placed it between the floor and his head.

Then, he began wondering what had prompted his wife to come to him and hold his arm last night.

’Was she scared, or was she...’

The last option didn’t occur in his mind, as he had a hard time believing that his wife would actually want to hold him and sleep next to him.

’No, that can’t be,’

He rejected the idea and a sense of loneliness began to fill his heart.

After all, he was not an attractive man, and he couldn’t compare himself to those male leads from the novels.

With those shiny silver hair, blue eyes, and handsome face, they could easily sweep any girl off their feet.

Unlike them, his appearance was mediocre.

It wasn’t like he wasn’t handsome, he was.

It is just that he is not as good-looking as the male leads in the novels.

And, his personality was not as charming as them, too.

After thinking about everything, a deep sigh left his lips, and a feeling of self-pity was beginning to rise in his heart.

’I don’t even know why I am comparing myself with the male leads.’

It was his subconscious mind that wanted him to be the best for his wife.

She deserved the best, and he was doing his best to give her the best, because...

His heart was beating for her.

After he became a Dark Zombie, his heart never beat once, and it was always cold, just like the dead.

But now, whenever he is around his wife, or whenever he looks at her, his heart begins to beat.

The blood that should be frozen in his body would begin to flow, and he would feel the warmth in his cold body.

Just like normal humans, the blood would rush to his cheeks, and his face would become red, while his heartbeat would keep getting fast.

It was something new, and every time his heart would beat, a wave of happiness would surge through his heart which would make him feel relaxed.

It was a very blissful and beautiful feeling and he wished that the feeling would stay with him forever.

Regardless, when he isn’t with his wife, the feelings would gradually vanish, and his heart would return to its cold state.

And, every time his heart would turn cold, a part of his soul would become empty as if there was a void in it.

It was a sad and depressing feeling, and the only thing that would fill the void was the sight of his wife’s smiling face.

Phew~

A content sigh left his lips and he couldn’t help but wonder why his wife was the only one who could make him feel like that.

Why was she the only one who could bring happiness to his dark life?

The question kept lingering in his mind and his heart began to ache as he couldn’t find an answer to it.

’Why did I fall for her? And, why did she fall for me?’

Thinking that, he closed his eyes, and slowly, his heart calmed down, and his breathing became stable.

’She... She is too good for me. She is pure, and I am tainted. She is an angel, and I am a demon.’

As he spoke in his mind, a faint smile appeared on his face, but, the sadness on his face didn’t vanish.

’Why is she too good for me?’

....

At the same time, Ember’s eyes were twitching and her heart was aching.

She had woken up but Nellas wasn’t aware of it, because she had her face toward her husband’s legs and the back of her head was facing his face.

The moment her husband touched her lips and began to caress her hair, she had woken up.

She didn’t know what to do, so she pretended to be asleep while enjoying the blissful moment.

However, it all changed, her heart suddenly began to ache and it felt as if something was piercing her heart.

It was an unknown feeling, and tears began to gather in the corners of her eyes.

’What... is...?’

She didn’t know the reason behind it, but her heart was screaming and she could feel her throat closing.

Unknown to her, she was feeling the same as her husband, and she was sharing the same emotions.

It was because of the ’Dream Synchronization’ mode the system had activated.

The moment Nellas was feeling the pain in his heart, Ember would feel the same, and it was all happening subconsciously.

The ’Dream Synchronization’ didn’t only make them share the same dream but it also made them feel each other’s feelings.

And, at this moment, both husband and wife were sharing the same negative feelings.

’Why... am I feeling sad?’

She was feeling a bit of confusion, and her eyebrows were scrunched, as her fingers unintentionally clutched the man’s shirt.

’Why is he too good for me?’

Suddenly, the same question as her husband echoed in her mind.

She felt undeserving.

She thought that she wasn’t worthy of the man she loved the most.

The only reason she was feeling like this was because she wasn’t only sharing the same feelings as her husband but also the same thoughts as him.

However, this was all a subconscious thing and the couple didn’t realize that they were both sharing the same thoughts.

’He... He deserves someone better. Someone, who is beautiful, pure, and strong.’

She thought, but her heart was rejecting it.

It wasn’t willing to give him to anyone.

It wanted him.

It wanted Nellas.

The person who had saved her, the person who was protecting her.

He was the one her heart was beating for, and it would not allow her to let him go.

’No, he is mine. I can’t let him go.’

As the thought crossed her mind, a strange sensation suddenly emerged in her chest, and a feeling of possessiveness filled her heart.

’I am not gonna give him to anyone. I will become someone worthy of his love. Yes, I will become someone who can stand beside him and proudly claim him as mine.’

It was the beginning of a new phase, as both, husband and wife, decided to improve themselves and become someone who would deserve each other’s love.

Even if it means becoming powerful and standing at the top.

The couple was unaware of the changes that were about to occur and the path they were about to take.

All they knew was that they wanted to be the best for each other.

"Nell..."

Ember’s soft voice entered Nell’s ears, and he was taken aback, as he didn’t expect her to be awake.

"Em, you have awakened?"
