"What are you talking to my wife about?" I asked.

After she had fallen asleep, I had summoned Luc from the magic tower. I had no idea she was taking things that way.

When I found out what she was thinking about, it was hard to control myself. I was angrier than ever. But the things she said- she had a point. And it was true that I did not bring her here because I was in love with her. I just had no idea why I wanted her that time.

There was a blankness in my mind whenever I tried to think about what the reason might be. It was as if someone removed those thoughts of that time from my mind.

"So, she realized it," Luc chuckled.

"It's no matter to laugh about," I said bitterly.

"I can't believe she told you those," he said.

Of course, she did not tell me about it. But I could not tell him that. My wife was the only person who knew about my ability to read minds.

"She didn't tell you those, did she? I wonder how you found out."

"That's none of your business," I said. "Now tell me. What the hell are you putting in her head?"

"I am not doing anything. I just helped her realize a few things," he shrugged.

"Realize? It seems like you're trying to break us apart."

"Huh, break you apart?" Luc laughed. "Don't make me laugh. I have no intention of breaking you apart. You're my friend and she is someone I care about. And I am grateful that she could tame a beast like you. I would be stupid to try to break your relationship.

But it's not like there aren't people who are actively trying to do so."

"What do you mean?"

"First, tell me if it's true."

"What's true?" I asked.

"That you brought her here because you wanted her power."

"I did not."

"Is that so?" he chuckled. It was clear that he did not believe me at all.

I sighed. "She doesn't believe me as well."

"You two fought?" he asked, but it seemed more like he was sure that we did. "Well, isn't it your fault? Do you think this all coincidence will go past someone's eyes? And it's not normal either. Who will believe you?"

"I know that it's all fucked up. But the thing is, even I don't know why I brought her here," I said.

"Now you're clearly messing with me. I don't care if you mess with me. But you clearly made her cry again. She is your wife, for god's sake!"

"I know she is my wife! And I am not messing with her! I don't even know what's going on," I yelled. "Yes, I brought her here and for seven years, I waited for her. But when I went to her, I suddenly lost the reason to bring her. And when I saw her there, I just couldn't take my eyes off.

That's the time I got a real reason to bring her."

"It's strange to hear this from you, but anyway, so what you mean is you fell for her that time and wanted to make her your mate?"

"No," I said. "I wanted to make her my mate all those time. But that time, I didn't have a reason, or perhaps, I had a reason, but I don't know what."

"That's totally almost bullshit," he said. "But... What did Blue say about it?"

"She doesn't believe me. But she said that if I was telling the truth, then it seems that someone possessed my thoughts... That's not possible, of course."

"Heh, she is smarter than I thought," he smirked. "Actually, I predicted something like this when I found out that she had black mana. I wanted to ask you myself if you remember the reason you wanted her. The fact that you fell for someone and waited for her for seven years was really strange and unbelievable. I always knew something was off. You're more the type to make an abrupt decision.

That's why the fact that you saw her that night and brought her here to make your mate is believable. But not the other one. Something surely happened seven years ago."

"I wanted to ask you this. But somehow, you found out about it from her," he added. "You didn't yell at her, did you?"

"So, what's your theory?" I asked, ignoring his question.

"So, you did! She is pregnant! You can't just yell at her," he said. "Really? Why the hell did you even marry?"

"I don't need to hear that from someone like you," I grumbled.

"Huh, someone like me? Look at who is talking... You can't even take care of her. Anyway, even if I say things like this, you won't listen to me," he muttered. "Anyway, what I suspect happened is that you truly were possessed or something like that."

"That doesn't make any sense."

"Actually, trying to control someone's thoughts is what a dark mage can do. It's not your wife obviously, since her power isn't awakened yet, and more importantly, why the hell would she even bother to do it when you are literally head over heels for her?"

"Can it be the dark mage whose power you detected before?" I asked.

"It might be," he said, thinking about something intently. "And I suspect that it is someone who is hiding their power almost perfectly. And there is almost no hole."

"Almost?" I said. "You got an idea?"

"Nah, not really. I think it's someone we least expect. I think Blue thinks the same. Oddly enough, we think almost the same way. It would be good if we were siblings... Anyway, make sure that she is protected these days at all costs.

I have two predictions- it's someone who knows about her power and that's also for a long time. And it's a powerful dark mage. They manipulated your thoughts and made you go there."

"That mage surely played with Evelyn's mind as well and made her go where Blue was. And then you went to get her and met Blue. Since then, you wanted to bring her here and I think it's because you wanted her power. Let's be honest here- you actually like power a lot. And you will do anything to gain more.

But after you met Blue, for some reason, that manipulation did not work on you anymore and you forgot why you wanted her before."

"And that dark mage wanted you to bring her here so they could use her power. Or so they could kill her after her power is awakened. So, there will be three teams. One- who will want to save her to use her power, all the time, before and after the awakening. Two- who will want to kill her before or after the awakening to save the world since they think that all dark mages are evil and too powerful.

And three who want to save her before the awakening and then kill her after the awakening."

"Because if a mage kills a dark mage after their power is bloomed, then that mage gets all the dark mage's power," I finished for him.

"Exactly. So, no matter what happens, what you choose, or what she chooses, she will always have enemies in this world. And you can't even take her back to her world since she will most probably die if her power isn't awakened. The only thing to do is to awake her power."

If that was the case, then the only way to protect her was to be by her side. If her power was awakened, perhaps she would be able to protect herself most of the time. But I did not want that. If it was not for her life, I would rather not awaken her power. Because, if her power was awakened, she would be less dependent on me. I did not want that.

I wanted her to be dependent on me as much as possible since in that case, she would not be able to even think of leaving me.

"But are you really telling the truth that you did not bring her here for her power only?" Luc asked.

"It's true. I did not. If your assumptions are correct, then perhaps I wanted her for her power before. But not in my right senses, I ever wanted her for her power," I said. "I just wanted her because I liked her. It's true that I am kind of obsessed with her, but it's definitely not her power.

Really, I don't give a fuck about what she can do and what she can't. All I want is for her to be with me."
