"Remus!! What the fuck are you doing in my suite? How could you come without any notice?" Brina shouted. She is still in her bathrobe, dammit!

"Well, this isn't the first time I came without prior notice." he said, with one of his legs crossed over his other knee.

"Ahh! That's different. We were still in college back then and I didn't have any boyfriend then!" Brina said, scoffing at him.

"Wasn't Nickolas your boyfriend back then? It's just a change of man that's it" he said, mocking her.

Brina's eyes turned chilly again.

How dare he compare her precious Louis with that bastard Nickolas!!

How dare he!!

"What? Did I say anything wrong?" Remus asked.

Truth to be said, he is just testing the waters.

He wanted to know how much she hates Nickolas. That's it!

Otherwise, he wouldn't be provoking her.

Meanwhile, Brina gritted her teeth. She couldn't control herself when someone spoke ill of Louis.

Her cool and composed nature just morphed back into her overbearing and furious nature.

Without any further thoughts, her hand reached for the knife stand and, without even looking at it, she hurled it towards Remus, furiously.

Her eyes are glowing balefully while she gets surrounded with a murderous aura.

The knife whizzed past Remus, just a fraction of an inch away from his right ear.

Remus froze.

Ha! Brina is turning back to Sabrina! And, yeah!! And, he wants exactly the same as well.

It's because the revenge she is talking about might not wait as long as she expected.

If his calculations and observations are right, her enemies might cross paths with her very soon. And, the outcome of it is unpredictable yet.

However, taking the worst case scenario, if she gets recognized, it will be inevitable for her to escape.

And, in order to face them, Brina has to turn back into Sabrina. However, it can't happen overnight.

She needs to be awakened slowly, so the devil in her will come out when needed. If it was Sabrina she wouldn't have left her cousins Nolen and Nadia alive like that.

She would have shown them how hell feels like. But, it seems like she has grown soft and kind over these few years.

To protect Will and herself she shouldn't even bat an eye before taking the cruelest and heart cold decisions. If not, she will be doomed.

Meanwhile..

"What if the knife would have striked me? My beautiful face" Remus pouted.

"I don't care about your ugly face. Just don't compare Louis with that bastard. And, don't ever come here without asking my permission, got it?" Brina warned him as she walked to him and pulled back that knife from the couch.

Later, she walked into the kitchen to start cooking.

Louis will definitely be exhausted and hungry. She is sure he will come without having his dinner so that they can eat together.

So, Brina didn't want to starve her future hubby. Even for a few minutes!

"Why should I ask permission? Am I not your best friend and brother? Or, don't you trust me yet" Remus asked, hurt evident in his eyes.

"Back then, I never cared how Nickolas felt. It's because I simply didn't care much about him nor I had registered the fact that he was my boyfriend. However, it's different now. I don't want Louis to get hurt or feel jealous or misunderstand me. I just don't want to trouble him from my side" Brina said.

Remus laughed.

"Don't you think it would hurt him if you keep secrets from him?" he asked, raising his brow in mockery.

"You were such a hypocrite sometimes. Acting as if everything will be fine and thinking as if all your assumptions and perceptions will never go wrong. Don't you think your secret would hurt Louis? He is a crowned Prince after all" Remus mocked her.

"On the first note, it's none of your business Remus. My personal life is not your concern anymore. So, better be in limits and now fuck off" Brina scoffed while she continued chopping vegetables.

Her anger is evident in the way how she is chopping. It is as if those vegetables are Remus's throat.

"All right. Don't be rude like this" Remus said.

"You were the one who was rude by popping up in my room like this!" Brina interjected him.

That 'chop' 'chop' sound is getting intense.

"Forgive me, devil. I came here to give you this 'special' document. This will help you to all the facts and affairs related to all the five Kingdoms. I didn't want to waste your time till tomorrow morning. So, I came now to give you this personally." Remus told her.

"I didn't ask you not to come! I said, inform me and come" Brina said, rolling her eyes at his puppy face.

"What if Louis sees you here, Remus? He will definitely recognize you and I had to tell him everything from the very start. For which, this is not the right time. I just don't want to risk it, that's it" Brina said.

"Got it. Study well. And, yeah,I brought some homemade snacks for you while studying. Aunt Morgana made these for you" he said, pointing to the bag.

"Thank you-." Brina said.

"Don't thank me" he chuckled.

"I did not thank you. That thanks is for mum." Brina mocked him as she opened the secret door, gesturing for him to go now.

….

After a few minutes.

Louis arrived.

He already messaged her about the connected doors today morning and told her that he would be there by night.

And, when he arrived, Brina was in the kitchen as she simultaneously continued cooking and reading the soft copy of History on her phone.

Louis chuckled when he saw her.

At first, he used to have office romance fantasies.

Now, his college romance fantasies might get fulfilled!!

"Started studying already?" he asked as he hugged her from behind and kissed the nape of her neck.

"I have to! If I complete revising the history, I can go on with learning facts and affairs" Brina said, snuggling into him.

Louis smiled as he tapped her nose.

"I can help you. I will be your teacher for these three days" he said, winking at her.

"Sure," Brina replied. Anyway, she wants someone to tell her about current political and international affairs. After going away from here, she never cared to learn too much about all this stuff.

"Good. You are my student then" Louis said, teasing her playfully.

As soon as Brina heard it, she abruptly moved away from his hug, maintaining distance.

Louis pouted. Confused by her sudden distancing, he asked, "Baby, what happened? Why did you move away?"

"I don't want to hug you anymore anymore," Brina said.

"Why?" Louis asked.

"Because you are my teacher now. How can I have a relationship with my teacher?" This time it's her turn to tease him.

"Ahh! This is unfair." Louis said, pouting at her angrily. However, he isn't angry but enjoying his baby's naughtiness.

"Then, let's be a 'teacher and student with benefits'" Louis said, winking.

"Interesting. So, what are the rules, Mr. Professor?" Brina asked, equally playful.

"So simple, dear student. I will be asking the questions related to your exam topics and if you answer correctly, you get to wish. You can do whatever you like to do with me" he said.

"Like what?" Brina asked, grinning. She can see where this is going. And, yep, it will be fun.

"Hmm, you can kiss me, undress me or seduce me or you can even give me a blo-" he is about to continue but, Brina covered his mouth.

"Ahh. Enough of detailing. Continue with your rules please" Brina said, her cheeks getting flushed.

Her boyfriend seems to be getting shameless day by day. This is the effect of the approaching D day, the marriage.

Even she is facing the same, too.

Louis laughed. He leaned over and pecked her lips. "Of course, my wifey" he whispered.

"And, if you don't answer correctly, I get to do whatever I want to do with you," Louis said, winking at her.

"Ahh! So cunning of you, sir. You are the one who is getting profited by this, no matter who wins" Brina said, rolling her eyes.

"That's true. Think of this, if a student wins, wouldn't the teacher feel as if he won? So, even if you win, that credit goes to me and I should be the one to get credited with it" Louis said, winking at Brina.

Brina chuckled.

"So genius of you" she laughed as she hugged him and closed her eyes. Louis smiled and kissed her head.

They just finished their dinner while they talked about the funny terms of their naughty game.

He has a magical impact on her. No matter how stressed she was or how angry she was, it would vanish as soon as Louis comes.

Their time together could heal anything for her.

And, the same goes for Louis too.

He really had a hectic day. With that rebellion hurling towards the other Kingdoms and with the instability the noble families are facing now… it has indeed been tough on him.

This instability would continue till the next Queen gets selected, but only if, every house is satisfied with the selection. Otherwise, there will be disputes.

And, these disputes will open the entrance to the rebellion directly welcoming it to infect the heart of the Kingdom.

Louis couldn't help but worry. Brina is not from any of the noble family. This is making him restless. Will the noble families accept her??
