"Joy!" Crown Prince Vlad entered his bedchamber with a wide smile on his face. "I have some good news for you."
Joyce was sitting at her dressing table; she was busy going through an old grimoire. She was reading the spells and was trying to memorize them. And she was so immersed in the book that she didn't even notice her husband entering the room and calling her name.
Vlad sighed upon seeing his wife doing the same thing which he had asked her not to do countless times.
He went up to her and leaned down to wrap his arms around her shoulders from behind.
Joyce finally lifted her gaze from the grimoire and looked at the reflection of her husband in the mirror. She couldn't help but lovingly stare at her husband's handsome face.
His trimmed beard and mustache made him look mature. His black soft curls looked disheveled, but somehow, that made him look even more attractive. And his light brown eyes, which were reflecting the candle lights were endearing.
