I Didn’t Tame The Beastly Duke! - Chapter 14

“…I’ll ‘sleep together’ with you tonight as you wish.”

Leonis whispered in Celia’s ear after sending the priest away. Celia’s eyes widened as they got closer and Leonis’ eyes danced pleasantly. 

“I’m sure you didn’t get scared after talking to me when you brought it up first?”

Of course I wasn’t scared. But what do you expect from this and what do you want to do later, Duke?

✦ ✦ ✦

“The bath is ready, Madam.”

When the maids heard the news that they would be sleeping together, they became even busier. They were convinced that Celia and the Duke already had their first night, but they haven’t given it much thought since they were preoccupied with the moxibustion. [1]

Of course, there was a reason why moxibustion was used. Celia’s health wasn’t good.

‘Second night is as important as the first night!’

It was none other than the first night after moving into the Duke’s mansion.

The Duchess had not shown her fussy side, but her attitude could change if she was not satisfied with the Duke in bed. 

In noble families, rumors about a lady who suffocated the people around her because she was in a bad relationship with her husband were common.

Therefore, Celia’s maids prepared for their night with all their zeal and sincerity. Celia was surprised to touch her skin that had softened after being massaged in the bath.

‘Skin care does work.’

It was surprising that it wasn’t a modern dermatologist when the maids’ hands could make such a difference.

Inside the Duchess’ room, which belonged to Celia, there were incense candles with a subtle fragrance. A large bed was sparsely sprinkled with rose petals, which had presumably been soaked in perfume. These had a weak scent as well.

‘It’s not even night yet.’

Celia paused in front of a window curtain. It was gradually getting dark outside. If you roll up the window, you will be able to see the sunset.

Leonis had some work left to do so they couldn’t eat dinner together. The dinner, which was prepared to commemorate the Duchy’s restoration, was not only plenty in number but also delicious. There was not only meat, but also fish, clams, lobster, and other delicacies…

It was a shame she couldn’t eat too much and had to eat slowly because her stomach was still weak.

‘Shouldn’t the goddess’ blood make my stomach strong?’

She couldn’t say this in front of anyone because of her dignity. She felt rejuvenated after having such a satisfying dinner and getting skincare from the maids.

Her stomach was full, her skin was smooth and her body was tired. It was perfect for her to sleep but she felt angry at herself by thinking unnecessary things. She couldn’t tell him not to come now.

‘Would it be good?’

Sex with Leonis was expected since his character was congenial. Besides, male leads of romance fantasy novels have enough techniques to make them feel the climax just by kissing!

‘That kiss was definitely good….’

So she couldn’t say anything about fiddling while washing up.  She couldn’t speak because she was embarrassed, but she felt Leonis’ hand was good even when he was washing her. 

However, when the maids served her, she felt uncomfortable and repulsed because they were strangers.

She assumed it was because she wasn’t used to having someone else serve her. Leonis was an exception.

While Celia sat waiting on the bed, someone knocked on the door. Knock knock, Celia straightened the hem of her robe and looked over to the door.

“What happened?”

“Madam, the Duke is here.”

She seemed to be one of Celia’s maids. Celia nodded, but then remembered that the door was shut.

“Tell him to come in.”

Click.

The door opened and Leonis came inside. Just as Celia was dressed in a robe waiting for him, Leonis was also dressed in a robe. He appeared to have just finished washing up because his hair was still wet.

Shouldn’t an opportunity like this be taken? 

Celia got out of the bed promptly. Leonis, who had entered the room calmly, came to a halt when he saw Celia approaching. Their difference in physique was obvious. Celia was about two heads smaller than him. 

When he looked into her sparkling eyes, he wondered if Marquis Montague had deceived Leonis about Celia’s age. 

“…Why?”

From the start, she tried to match the atmosphere by warming up her face. His wife, who had already stood in front of him and was within reach, glanced at him in interest with her eyes glittering.

“Can I touch you?”

What?

“No, wait… Hey.”

He tried not to panic while she tried to untie the straps on his robe. It was so blatant, and she seemed to have thrown the straps away somewhere.

Leonis was genuinely embarrassed because no woman had ever treated him this way before. Celia was very confident.

‘You also stripped me and touched me!’

She was frustrated that she didn’t touch it properly while they were showering that day. Celia decided to go ahead with it from the start after determining that it was the cause of her shrinking in the fight.

We’ll touch each other anyway! Player’s victory!

It wasn’t quite what she had hoped for, but it was nice to see Leonis panic. His hand grabbed Celia’s wrist as the straps had already fallen loose.

“It’s good to be aggressive, but… Wouldn’t it be better for you not to provoke me?”

“I haven’t done anything yet…..”

Just by taking a step closer, Leonis could have Celia in his arms. The front of her robe was open, revealing her breasts, but Leonis held her wrists, preventing her from touching him.

“You’re more sneaky and bolder than you look, my wife.”

“Do you think you’re the only one who can do it? You were the one who touched my body under the guise of washing it.”

“So? Are you going to get that revenge this time?”

Leonis removed his robe with ease after releasing Celia’s hand. A thin silk robe fell down at his feet, revealing his naked body. He didn’t seem to have any underwear on.

“Good. Feel free to touch it.”

As they stared at each other, Celia’s eyes went from Leonis’ face to his neck and back to his chest. She felt it when they took a shower together, but it was not normal.

‘Wh-whoa.’

Celia was overwhelmed when she saw his muscular naked body. In reality, she felt as if she had seen a flawless mold that she couldn’t duplicate. It was not just large, but it also drew emphasis to the body, making it appear sleek and solid.

“Are you not going to touch it?” Leonis asked. 

He ignored Celia’s piercing yet twinkling gaze. At those words, Celia swallowed and stretched out her hand. 

‘Somehow why do I feel like I am a pervert?’

But the pressure would be a mistake……! They got married and now they just want to sleep together. Wasn’t Leonis the one who said it was fine to touch it? So…

‘I shouldn’t touch it… I should.’

Celia thought that she was more perverted when she got nervous and her cheeks turned red. Her fingertips were gently pressed against his chest. His skin was strangely firm and smooth at the same time.

It’s natural for it to be different from other people’s skin, but it feels strange. As Celia sweeps her palms up, the muscles beneath her palms tense up.

‘Is this how a human body can be created in reality?’

She had seen a body that looked similar on TV, but she couldn’t believe it when she touched it.

This was something you could actually hold in your hands… It wasn’t a fictitious body; it was a real one!

Leonis’ face flushed as soon as she raised her hands and swept them down. He had a tickled and embarrassed expression on his face. 

“….I’m not a kid.”

Leonis lowered his head as he touched Celia’s cheek. When she tried to take a step back in surprise, her gown’s waist strap had already untied.

“Ahh!”

Leonis’ hands removed Celia’s silk robe. Even with that alone, Celia felt as if her fighting power had been halved. 

Leonis’ arm enveloped Celia’s waist when she stumbled. The two naked bodies came in contact as he pulled Celia close. Celia flinched as she felt something hard and hot touch her stomach. She was speechless as she stared at it reflexively.

“Wh-what is….”

Big! It wasn’t just big, it was huge! Is this why it’s such a tragedy?

Celia couldn’t take her eyes off it as she felt her blood drain. She just touched his chest and waist, but his veins were so engorged to the point where she couldn’t stop it.

“I don’t think it’s going to fit…”

When she murmured unconsciously, Leonis’ hand slid down her chin, collarbone, chest, and between her legs.

“Hiick!”

Celia’s body trembled at the sensation of a finger that tickled her entrance. But Leonis was holding her back, fingers pressing into Celia’s vagina.

“Ah… it’s definitely tight. But…”

“Haaaah!”

His fingertips only came in a little but they moved and rubbed inside as if they were widening it. Then, she felt his fingers come in a little deeper.

Celia had been involved with a man in her previous life, but it still felt strange. She was embarrassed, as though this was the first time something like this had happened to her. It seemed this body had never been touched by a man before since Celia was terrified of Marquis Montague.

Nonetheless, given her desire to run away with her ex-fiancé, she appeared to either really love Fabian or despised Leonis.

“Mmhh…Uhh!”

Leonis’ kiss fell from her moaning lips.

The hasty kiss filled with longing caused her mouth to open instinctively. Leonis’ tongue was as relentless and fiery as his lips, and Celia nearly forgot there was a finger pressing through her vagina.

Celia’s slender arms wrapped around Leonis’ neck. His kiss was still good. She felt embarrassed when he touched her bottom part. It was a strange but pleasant sensation.

‘Is this the characteristic of a male lead from a romance fantasy? A buff?’

She felt her inside wall getting wider and softer. A transparent liquid flowed down her thighs as two or three fingers stretched out her walls.
