**TITLE: He Returned to Break and Own Me and for His Queen**
**Chapter 98: A Husband’s Insecurity**

In the dimming light of the room, the acupoints that once seemed hazy and misplaced in Oriana’s recollections suddenly crystallized with clarity, mapping themselves like a constellation across the intricate framework of the human body. It was as if a veil had been lifted, revealing the hidden pathways of energy that flowed through each limb and joint.

With unwavering concentration, Micah guided her through the delicate process, needle after needle, over three hundred points meticulously placed with precision. The atmosphere was charged with the weight of their shared focus, the world outside fading into obscurity as night enveloped them.

“The final point, Neiting,” Micah announced, his voice steady yet gentle. “It’s located on the instep, nestled between the second and third metatarsal bones.”

With a sense of accomplishment, Oriana inserted the last needle into its designated spot. A long, relieved sigh escaped her lips, and her eyes sparkled with triumph. “Micah, did I really manage to do it all?”

As she finally disengaged from the intense learning process, her gaze lifted to meet his. It was then that she noticed the beads of sweat forming at his temples, glistening under the soft glow of the room. His usually aloof eyes held a depth that could have been intimidating, yet they were also strikingly clear and pure, a reflection of something profound within him. A faint smile graced his lips, reminiscent of a gentle breeze that stirred something deep within Oriana’s heart, leaving her momentarily entranced.

But the moment was fleeting, for Micah, unable to bear the weight of her gaze any longer, broke the spell with a wry smile. “While I’m grateful for your skills, being needled for such an extended period… might be a bit much for my constitution.”

“Ah! I’m so sorry! I’ll take them out right away!” Snapping back to reality, Oriana quickly set to work, gently removing the last few needles and disinfecting the points with care, her heart racing with a mix of exhilaration and guilt.

Feeling a wave of remorse wash over her, she took a damp tissue and delicately wiped the cold sweat from his temples. “I truly apologize. Was it very uncomfortable for you?”

“It’s alright,” he reassured her, his voice soothing. “When the points are needled correctly, it’s not painful. Just a sensation of soreness and numbness.” He shifted his joints slightly, testing their movement. “It’s fortunate I found such a quick learner for William. Otherwise, I might have endured a bit more discomfort.”

The fact that he could still find humor in the situation made Oriana chuckle, her heart swelling with gratitude for the bond they shared.

As she began to pack away the medical kit, a memory flickered in her mind—Kieran’s words from earlier. She casually inquired, “Were you in a bad mood today? You can talk to me about it, you know.”

Though Micah’s tinted glasses shielded his eyes from the light, he could still perceive the genuine concern reflected in Oriana’s clear gaze. Touched by her kindness, the corners of his lips turned upward slightly. “There were a few unpleasant matters that occupied my thoughts, but…” He paused, his gaze softening as he took in her earnest expression. He curled his index finger, almost succumbing to the urge to playfully boop her nose. “This kind of negativity… I don’t want to pass it onto you.”
