No wonder Jasper Mo was still trying to win her over again, but would Hero allow him to snatch his wife from him? Of course not, he'd make sure that this woman would eventually fall in love with him until no more space was left for Jasper Mo to conquer. 

As his gaze roamed over her, Hero concluded that he would have laughed if someone told him that he'd remarry. He would even laugh harder if they told him he'd have a one-night stand with her before marriage, knocking her up.

After his first wife's death and Little Amber's birth, Hero didn't think there would be a day that he would remarry. 

Shaking his head slightly, Hero tore his gaze away from her to the window where the moonlight was struggling to get past through. Giving his wife a last glance before shutting his eyes, he wondered briefly if they could get out of their contractual marriage and truly live as husband and wife in all aspects. 

The day was Saturday, and the warm sunlight that drifted through the same curtains the moonlight kissed last night woke Little Amber before Luna did. Little Amber squirmed as she tried to get out from her Mommy's arm that lay across her but froze when she felt another person lying on the bed. 

Turning her head next to her, she saw her father crack an eye open and glare back at her with the same intensity she was throwing at him. Silently, Hero was telling her to be still and not to wake up Luna before closing his eyes again to rest his eyes. 

The woman in question sighed softly on her sleep and pulled Little Amber closer as she shifted on the bed, not aware of the cold war between her husband and stepdaughter. 

An hour later, Luna's eyes opened slowly; and she smiled sleepily as she snuggled into the warmth that surrounded her. Sighing softly, she pressed herself against the source of the warmth and felt the arm around her tighten.

It took her some time to realize that the body sleeping next to her wasn't the same small child she invited on her bed last night. 

Her eyes shot open, and Luna stifled a gasp as her gaze met with her husband's. 

"Good morning, Wife. Did you sleep well last night?" he asked. 

Her mind froze as she realized that she was pressed against his body, and he had wrapped an arm around her as though he was trying to keep her there. It took her a moment to realize that Little Amber who had clung to her for most of the night was not present. 

Luna fought hard the blush that crept on to her face, but it was too late for her to hide it as Hero had already seen it. 

Amused, Hero pitied her and released her from his hold as she moved out of her bed. 

"Where's Amber?" she asked Hero, trying to divert her focus away from this delicious man who was currently tempting her. 

Luna halted at that. What? Delicious? What the hell was wrong with her brain, ah? Why did she suddenly think that Hero was quite charming and delectable looking as he lay on her bed? 

Luna chastised and slapped herself mentally. 

It must be her damn hormones acting again. If it wasn't because she was pregnant, she didn't think she would have this kind of thoughts towards her husband.

There was no way in hell she would admit that she was s.e.x.u.a.lly attracted to her husband… but looking at him was so tempting, she wondered what would it be.

'No!' Luna cradled her head and forced the dirty thoughts away from her mind. This couldn't possibly be happening! This wasn't her! Damn, her own body was betraying her. 

Hero lay back on the bed and stared at her confusedly. He could sense that she was somewhat trapped in an internal battle, causing her facial expression turned from confusion, to surprise, and to horror. 

Ah, compared to sleeping alone on his own bed, he felt much relaxed when he slept on the same bed with his wife although his daughter was between them. 

"Look behind you," he said. Luna did what he'd just said, glad that he was able to change the mood within the room. 

Luna didn't think she would be able to answer her husband if he asked her what was wrong with her. 

She found Little Amber sitting on the floor surrounded by the toys she brought with her. Noticing her stare, the girl turned around and smiled at her, glad to see that her Mommy was finally awake. 

Little Amber stood up and raised her arms up, informing her Mommy she wanted to be picked up by her. Luna did but not without Hero scolding his daughter first. 

"When your Mommy's bump starts to show up, you can't do this anymore. You'll hurt her and the baby," he told Little Amber. 

Little Amber stuck her tongue out and avoided her father's glare. He could not stop her from taking her Mommy's attention. 

Why did she have such a bad daddy anyway? Why did he always fight with her for Mommy's attention? 

"Did my baby sleep well last night? Because Mommy's hoping you'll accompany her to visit her friend today?" 

Since Luna wasn't able to meet Corinne during the banquet, she promised that she'd pay a visit to her and Mia this weekend. 

Little Amber nodded her head, excited to go out again like they did yesterday when her Mommy took her for shopping. 

Before meeting her new Mommy, Little Amber always wondered what would it feels like if she has a mommy of her own but thinking about her father's attitude, she didn't any woman would agree to become her mommy. 

Little Amber certainly didn't want her Aunt Veronica to become her mom. She's violent and loud. She also made her cry through her shouting. As Little Amber wrap her small arms around her mommy, she thanked her bad daddy in her heart.
