"Then tell me, are you really planning to propose now?" Zaki asked but instead of answering him, Sei started asking him instead.

"Tell me, what happened in the police station?" He uttered coldly and Zaki could only scratch his nape as he answered him right away.

"Don't worry, they didn't touch her. They just showed her your picture when you're twelve." He said and Sei fell silent for a while before he could talk again.

"So if I showed her my face before this…" Sei paused and Zaki continued his statement.

"If you did, the agents will surely find out that she's connected with you even if she denies it. After all, the agents that asked her were member of XBI's top intelligence unit. They're psychologist expert in detecting lies and reading body language and expressions." Zaki said and Sei averted his gaze towards the dark night as he clenched his fist.

"And besides, your wife is just like you. You both don't have the talent of hiding the truth." He continued but Sei still remained silent.

Sei was aware of the risk and he's always been afraid that sooner or later, something like this will happen. He knew from the beginning what will be the price of him revealing himself to her. He knew that if that happens, his dear wife will only end up just like him, a person hidden from the eyes of the world. She will be forced to hide and stay behind the shadows. Her wings will be broken into pieces, and her only way of surviving was to lock herself inside a cage.

The fear that was lurking inside him every day was unbearable. He was terrified to death that one day, one wrong move and he will lose her. A part of him wanted to just show himself to her so he could just keep her safe in his embrace. However, he knew that if he does that, it was the same as chaining her into his world of darkness. He knew that doing it will be the same as taking away her freedom and breaking her wings so she can't fly freely over the vast bright sky anymore.

Just by thinking about it, Sei couldn't bear to make her live like that. He thought that he'd rather destroy himself than let his sun lose her light.

That moment, Sei looked at the ring in his hand before he buried it in his fist. The darkness in his eyes sparked a burning emotion that made Zaki felt an extreme chill down his spine. And with just a single glance at him that moment, was enough for Zaki to realize his answer.

Zaki knew that he will never risk anything when it comes to her. He knew that Sei will never forgive anyone, even his own self if something happens to her.

"Let's talk more about this later Sei. I also have something I'd like to say regarding her. For now, sort out your mind so you could tell me your ultimate plan soon. Let's go back to sleep first, it's still midnight." Zaki then broke the deafening and extremely cold silence as he yawned. And when the man didn't move, he just walked back to his bed and laid.

Moments later, Zaki felt him finally leaving the room.

However, approximately two hours later, Zaki's eyes opened. Well, it was because someone entered the room again.

The next moment, Sei was already standing beside his bed. Zaki could only knit his brows the moment he looked at the clock and it's still 2AM.

"What is it this time?" Zaki sluggishly asked as he covered his eyes with the back of his hand.

"Go back to your room. I'm going to sleep here." Sei replied and Zaki immediately rose due to great surprise.

"H-huh?!Are you sleep talking?!" he exclaimed when Sei just heaved a deep sigh.

"Oi, what the hell's going on with you? You should be the one going back to your room. Don't leave your wife alone!" Zaki continued with his voice mixed with frustration when Sei just quietly turned his back and left the room without saying anything. Leaving Zaki who could only stare at the door with disbelief.

"Is he even fully awake? Ahh… people in love is really beyond words to define." Zaki murmured as he laid back again when all of a sudden, he rose with his eyes opened wide.

"Wait! Could it be that he's trying to escape from his wife's claws because he's having a hard time controlling himself again?!" Zaki blurted before he suddenly jumped out of his bed and took strides towards the door. He locked the door to make sure that Sei can't enter the room again. Well, this study room was the only room close enough to their bedroom so Zaki knew that this is the only place where Sei could run to since he will never go farther away from her.
