Ailwin looked at the Kaze, wondering what was taking him so long to say what was on his mind."Is there a reason behind you coming here?" Growing tired of his downtime being interrupted, Ailwin bought Kaze"s attention back to the matter that bought him here.
"Oh! Yes, wait one moment...Miss Mikaela?" Kaze held his wristband up, and Mika"s face came into view.
"Yea...I"m here." After making sure the connection wasn"t lost, Kaze pa.s.sed his wristband to Ailwin.
"Mika?" Ailwin never thought Mika would call him, especially not at night.
"One second...Kaze you can go back now. Oh! and keep up the good work and I like the abs you got going on!" Mika"s hand reached out wanting to run her hand across his six-pack. Regrettably, she was miles away and inside of a screen so she was out of luck.
"Leave." Ailwin"s cold voice made Kaze felt like his body was being encased ice.
Kaze had been so tired from all the long training exercises that he didn"t realize he left his room without a s.h.i.+rt on. If Mika didn"t say anything, he probably wouldn"t have noticed at all, unlucky for him, neither would have Ailwin.
Not liking that his future wife had called another man at night and saw his body before even seeing his and was admiring it, Ailwin wanted Kaze gone from his room.
"Y-Yes." Kaze left the room feeling like he just ended up on Prince Ailwin"s blacklist.
Once the door clicked closed, Ailwin gave Mika his full attention.
"This is a leisure call or a business call?" Ailwin sat up a little more, letting his robe flaps open wider by a few millimeters.
"Both." Mika showed no excitement at seeing hints of Ailwin"s pectorial muscules.
Ailwin was disappointed he tried moving the wristband around to get better angles for Mika to see, but all that resulted in Mika growing frustrated with his constant moving.
"Will you stop it already!?... Why do you keep moving your arms?" Her neck was hurting from all the swinging her head was doing due to him moving the camera back and forth.

"*Cough*...m-my arms are getting tired from holding the wristband up. Why didn"t you call me on my monitor?"
If I had a bigger screen to work with, I wouldn"t be making a fool out of myself right now, Ailwin thought.
"Right now, my Amara clan is being watched by everyone, including the royal family. I couldn"t take the chance of them finding the connection between the two of us."
"Mmm..." Ailwin nodded his head, it would be best not to give their opponents any opportunities.
"...okay, then I"m guessing we are on to the next step in your plan then...?"
"En, I need to push my father"s hand." Mika glance out the window where she sure her father is meeting with her mother.
"Your father...?"
"Yes well, any loving father wouldn"t want their daughter to marry your brother, and sadly my father loves my sister."
"And you want me to do what?" Ailwin couldn"t understand Mika"s thoughts.
"I need to push my dear step-mother and my sister into a corner...Right now, everything has been in their court. I want to force them to choose between family and their greed."
"And how will you make that happen?"
"By upping the ante with your brother...I want you to release some information to the spies in your camp that you and Kamyrn are planning to get married to each other secretly before the month ends."
"....spies in my camp...? You mean Kaze?" Ailwin"s eyes strayed to the door.
"Ha. Ha. Ha. No. I mean the ones your siblings and father sent to you. You know, the ones you keep around so you can feed false information to them..." Giving him pointed look, Mika made it clear that she isn"t stupid.
"Touché...so you want me to make Thallan believe he is about to lose his prize bride after only just winning her."
"Yup."
"Okay, is that all..?" Ailwin hoped it wasn"t, he liked talking to her.
"En, thanks. Oh! and keep up the good work, Kaze is looking good." Mika raised her thumb up to the screen.
Back in his room, nestled in his warm bed, Kaze felt a chill creep up his spine. Pulling the covers closer around himself, he wonders if he caught a cold from walking around s.h.i.+rtless late at night.
"You"re telling your soon-to-be husband that another man looks good after calling him late at night..."
"Mmm...I see where you"re coming from....I should"ve called General Gilwenys and thanked him instead. He"s the one who trains the soldiers, after all.... Okay, duly noted. Bye." Mika ended the call with Ailwin left feeling a little sorry for himself and thankful no one was here to witness crumbled dignity.
