Ice Prince: Rewrite The Star

Max and Chleo spent their vacation on the sea with the marine mammals during these two days. They dived, walked above water, and mounted whales.

Max taught Chleo to operate their yacht and together explore the vast ocean that seems endless.

But on this last day, Max had prepared a special event for Chleo. He told Chleo to close her eyes and not to peek.

"I can't believe you prepared an endless surprise for me."

Max laughed, amused seeing the pouting lips of his lover's pouted lips.

"This is the last one. Follow my step."

Max led Chleo to follow him until he got off the yacht. Chleo could feel the pleasant feeling every time she walked above the water. It truly amazed her she could do something that no one could, thanks to her lover's ability.

She wondered where Max would take her to, considering she saw nothing the last time she checked before Max asked her to close her eyes.

Chleo wore a sleeveless white dress with a red camellia flower image on the hem of the dress. The skirt fluttered as the breeze blew on her.

Her hair was styled in a bun, letting a few strands on the sides fall to decorate her face.

Miraculously, even though the night wind was blowing hard, Chleo didn't feel cold as if the wind didn't dare to approach her.

She didn't know for how long the walk until Max stopped unexpectedly. Chleo sensed Max walking behind her, and something snaked around her waist.

She smiled as she was hugged gently from behind, and she heard a loving whisper right next to her ear.

"You can open your eyes now."

Chleo did what she told, and her jaw fell in amazement.

She saw a small round table and two aluminum plating like those served to royalty. In the center of the round table was a beautiful rose placed in a cylindrical glass bottle.

Not only that, a round table and two elegant chairs that were so beautiful were placed on the water!!?

There were also a few small candles placed in small colored glasses around their dinner table in a heart shape. Chleo could hear the whales' singing and the dolphins' laughter as if they were excited seeing her happy and astonished face.

Just imagine, they would have a romantic dinner above the water? How romantic could this man be?

If only Chleo gave Axel a chance and she accepted her husband's feelings, would their married life change?

She wouldn't have fallen into Vectis's evil plan if she was with her husband? And the blue king wouldn't ask to reverse the time and change the history, would he?

What's the point of being sorry now? If Max didn't rewrite the star for her, Chleo would never have met Uncle Kinsey and Aunt Katie, and neither would she meet two sweet younger cousins, like Kendrich and Melodie.

Hence, Chleo decided not to regret what had happened. She might regret never having fond memories of her marriage to Axel, but at least now she'll make up for it to create good memories with Max.

But...

Chleo turned around and hugged her lover's waist while looking at Max sadly.

"What is it? You don't like it?"

Chleo shook her head quickly so that Max wouldn't misunderstand. "No. I like it very much. But, you've done a lot for me, whereas I… I didn't do anything."

Max smiled softly at that. He raised his hands to cup Chleo's face then gave her a short kiss.

"You have done one huge thing for me by giving me a second chance. As for me, I want to do whatever I couldn't before. I want to take you around the world, take you to beautiful places so I can see you smile. Therefore, you don't need to do anything."

Chleo's heart skipped a beat hearing this. Her heart was moved, and she was genuinely grateful to have a second chance in her life to be with Max.

How can there be a man who truly loves her when she has hurt him so much?

If this man hadn't been Max, Chleo was sure, other men would have hated her and forgotten about her.

Chleo remembered very well the words she expressed were so cruel and painful. If she was the one receiving the cold treatment and hurtful words, she wasn't sure if her heart could handle it.

Tears dripped from the corners of her eyes which were quickly wiped away by a swipe of Max's thumb.

"Why are you crying?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's because I realized I'm not worthy enough to be with you."

"Shh. Why are you talking like that? There's no woman in this world I want more than you."

"But…"

"Chleo, are you going to leave me?"

"No. I don't want to leave your side."

Max smiled brightly at this, and he felt relieved when he sensed Chleo's tightness and Chleo's fingers gripping his shirt.

"Then don't be skeptical like that again. Hmm? You are far more worthy to be with me, and I will never let you go." Max landed his lips on Chleo's forehead to convey his feelings.

Nevertheless, Chleo still had doubts and wasn't sure if she could be happy like this without doing anything? She felt insecure, and slowly doubts began to devour her from inside.

Max could sense her anxiety and decided to do what he planned that night.

"I should have done it later after we finished our nice dining. But it looks like you can't wait."

Chleo's brow furrowed in confusion at the man's last sentence.

What did he mean by she couldn't wait?

Chleo was even more confused when she saw Max raise her right hand and bring it to the man's mouth.

Her face heated up as she felt the cold yet warm lips touch one of her knuckles.

Though confused as to why Max was kissing her ring finger instead of the back of her hand, Chleo remained silent while only her heart was beating rapidly.

After giving a lingering kiss, Max stroked Chleo's ring finger, and there was a bluish glow in her ring finger.

Chleo was curious about the light, raised her five right fingers, and her eyes widened at what she saw.
