My Drama King Husband (Yvaine and Silas) novel Chapter 23

He stepped into the bathroom and immediately noticed the massive array of foreign products lining the vanity.

Before today, he only owned a single bottle of basic men's body wash. Now, the counter was crowded with dozens of high-end options. There were body washes in every scent imaginable—rose, strawberry, apple—along with a myriad of jars he couldn't even identify.

He picked a few up to inspect them: exfoliating scrubs, various scented body lotions, and an assortment of essential oils.

Silas stood frozen.

In his twenty-something years of life, this was the first time he had come face-to-face with the luxurious, extensive vanity collection of a true high-society heiress. The variety was dazzling, practically a boutique in itself.

Did his mother and sisters have this many products at home?

He had never paid attention.

Maybe... they probably did, right?

Silas stripped off his clothes and started the shower.

After a moment's thought, he began popping open the various bottles, smelling them one by one.

Finally, he found the exact scent he had just smelled on Yvaine.

It was the champaca blossom body wash.

He proceeded to use her champaca blossom wash for his shower.

When he stepped out, she had already finished her skincare routine and was tucked into bed.

Silas climbed in beside her.

The moment he settled in, Yvaine caught the familiar, distinct fragrance of champaca blossoms radiating from his skin.

That wasn't what his body wash smelled like.

His usual soap barely had a scent at all.

"Did you use my body wash?" she asked.

Silas hesitated. "...Am I not allowed to?"

Yvaine smiled. "You can."

She was just a little... curious.

She hadn't expected him to reach for that specific one.

Out of the dizzying number of soaps, oils, and body washes she owned, he had somehow picked the exact same one she had used tonight.

Was it... just a coincidence?

Or did he intentionally choose to smell like her?

"Do you like the scent?" she asked softly.

He suddenly leaned in, his face hovering right over her collarbone, and took a slow, deep breath against her neck. "I love it. It smells incredible."
