Caspian entered the bedroom and was about to lie down on the bed.
"Wait a moment." Willow stopped him.
"What's wrong?"
"You've been running all around the country without any sleep. Why don't you take a shower and put on a change of clothes? You'll feel much better," Willow sheepishly replied.
Willow was right as Caspian had gone from South Aridlands to West Aridlands and back. His clothes were dirty after the journey.
"Alright. I'll take a hot shower, then," Caspian nodded his head. He had also been wanting to take a proper rest.
There was an important battle waiting for him at night.
Caspian went into the bathroom to freshen up.
Willow became excited as she watched him enter the bathroom.
The reason she advised him to take a shower before bed was because she wanted to spend some alone time together.
The couple hadn't seen each other for a while due to Caspian being out of the house for the war efforts.
Willow wanted to stay with Caspian for a little more if given the chance. She had no idea how many more battles Caspian would have to face.
She figured that they wouldn't be noticed if she kept her voice down and locked the doors and windows.
Willow had heard that men would always be energetic early in the morning.
She was jealous when she woke up to find Caspian and Macy alone in the living room despite not showing it on the surface.
Willow finally realized the possibility of danger.
The danger that other women would snatch Caspian away from her.
Willow realized that Zoey was right in the fact that having a child would be the only way to secure a man's heart. She decided that she had to make haste in creating a new life with Caspian.
Caspian shouted from inside the bathroom, interrupting her thoughts, "Willow, can you get me a change of clothes? I forgot to bring it with me."
Caspian was only thinking of taking a shower before going to bed and forgot to bring along a change of clothes with him into the bathroom.
"Okay, give me a moment," Willow replied. She then opened the closet to look for his clothes.
She retrieved a set of clothes and walked toward the bathroom door. "Open the door."
"Alright, but don't look."
Even though they were a married couple, it was still embarrassing to be seen naked while taking a shower.
Caspian suddenly realized that he had not taken a shower together with Willow.
"What are you talking about? Why would I try to sneak a peek at you? Besides, I've already seen your body plenty of times. Jeez!" Willow complained.
Caspian realized that Willow was right.
There were no more secrets between the two of them.
Caspian slowly pushed the bathroom door open.
Willow was welcomed with the sight of a majestic body.
It had only been a few days since they last saw each other. But Willow was extremely excited as if it was her first time witnessing his body again.
Caspian took his clothes and closed the door. He already noticed that Willow had been eyeing his body.
But he decided not to expose her.
Willow sat down on the bed while her heart raced.
She didn't know why, but her heart would get restless every time she finally reunited with Caspian after a period of time apart.
It was as if Caspian's body had an alluring and irresistible charm to it.
Willow's face gradually turned red.
"I'm going out for a moment, Willow," Caspian said as he came out of the bathroom.
"Why? Aren't you going to sleep? Why are you going out now?"
