Chapter 330: Still Your Birthday**

Mineah's birthday celebration had extended into the early hours of the morning. She and Nikolai were both exhausted, but it was worth it because she really had a great time celebrating it with the people she cared about. She also received tons of gifts but of course, none could compare to the magical gifts Nikolai had given her.

She carefully extricated from her husband's hug and quietly sat up on the bed. She smiled fondly watching Nikolai fast asleep. The sun had already risen, and while she knew she should wake him, she didn't have the heart to disturb his peaceful sleep. 

A heavy sigh escaped her as she stood up and stared at Nikolai. 

She felt there was something unsettling about his words from the previous night. Her gut was telling her that Nikolai was hiding something from her. The illusions he did were very out of context for her birthday celebration. Yet Nikolai extended an effort to create a powerful spell she couldn't break, almost forcing her to recognize him amongst the crowd. She couldn't help but suspect that Nikolai was concealing something important from her.

'Nikolai won't do something like this for no reason,' Mineah muttered. Also, she knew that Nikolai would not hide things from her if the reasons he had were not valid.
