An unfamiliar warmth spread over my lips, which had been swept away by his fingers a while ago.

I was so surprised that I opened my eyes wide.

My rigid body was held against him.

“Ohhhhhhhhhh.”

Edlade’s sudden kiss made me confused, at the same time my mind went blank when he bit my lips.

With a short pain that was completely different from the habit of biting, he slipped in through the gaping of my lips without hesitation.

His hot, mushy tongue pulled mine.

I clutched his lapel in a rough stirring motion so that I shouldn’t fall.

“Ohhh.”

A moan with a desire that could not be hidden came out through the gap so that I could breathe.

I was ashamed of not being able to control that, so my body stiffened even more, but the hand that softly brushed my back took away all my strength.

It was difficult to recognize what was happening.

With hot breath, his tongue swept and skimmed my mouth unstoppably.

The saliva flowed between our lips.

Rather than being dirty, it felt like my desire had been caught, and the shame came over me.

“Haa…….”

His hand stroking my back slowly wrapped around my waist.

The already close body got closer the moment he gave strength to the arm that was wrapped around my waist.

My body trembled.

We felt each other’s bodies closely with the dress and shirt.

He pulled me so hard that my heart was racing, and I took him in with no intention of rebelling.

Can this be called luck?

The burning desire had already passed through the lower abdomen and reached even deeper.

Am I still afraid of the night with him?

Or maybe I am looking forward to the night with him.

“Uhhhhhhh…”

He scanned the roof of his mouth and bit my tongue, which ran away. It was reckless and somewhat ferocious.

Just like a beast that has endured a long time in front of delicious food, barely eating.

“Haa…… Haa.”

He licked my lips while I moaned uncontrollably.

My eyes, which were filled with shame, started yearning for the next act.

The kiss that was neither long nor short, my droopy body was fully embraced, and leaned on him.

“Haa…….”

I struggled for breath, panting hot breaths again and again.

My chest went up and down, and I tried again and again to find a stable breath.

Every time that happened, Edlade’s body twitched and hardened.

“…Mi, I’m sorry. I am not used to it.”

I felt like I had to say something, so I hurriedly blurted it out.

Then, above my head, he picked – and laughed.

The smile seemed to be pleasant, but it seemed to make fun of me, so my face heated up.

‘Of course, I’m not used to it. It’s the first time since I came back… I’ve never kissed like this in my last life.’

Edlade in her past life has always been kind. Those were sweet kisses and he was careful every time.

It was completely different from his current kiss, which seemed to eat me.

“It’s the first time…… Have you never been with me before?”

My body trembled.

Speaking of the before, I should be referring to Edlade of yesterday, the person in this life.

Why did I think of him in my past life?

“Oh, no. To you, I am just a stranger…”

“That’s the same now.”

He held my chin and lifted my bowed head.

I closed his eyes tightly, wanting to kiss him again.

But his lips did not touch, and when I opened my eyes, he was smiling with a rare curled lips. 

“You must have liked the kiss you just shared with me.”

“……”

“It’s more than I expected.”

The corners of his mouth that went up with a squeak were clearly ‘teasing’, so my face really caught fire.

There’s nothing to be ashamed of!

“No, don’t make fun of me. To you, I’m a stranger…… To me, you are my husband who will be with me for the rest of my life…….”

“……”

Edlade did not respond to my words. He just slowly raised his hand and tumbled through my messy hair.

He grabbed my wavy hair as it flowed between his big fingers.

He brought it to his lips and gently closed his eyes and kissed it.

My body heated up even though it was different from the kiss we had shared a while ago.

Even the act of kissing the hair was tempting and made me feel anxious.

Edlade relaxed his arm that was tightly wrapped around me.

As if sliding away from him, my body trembled as if I missed his warmth.

As if the only bedroom in the moonlight was a new hell prepared by the devil, my anxious body was perplexed not knowing where to turn.

“……. Wasn’t it a political marriage?”

His voice was too low.

It was a strange question, but I nodded, trying to calm my lost body.

“Just because it was an arranged marriage doesn’t mean that your heart won’t grow. At least I respect you as a spouse.”

“….Respect?”

I raised my hands to his chest and gave strength to my lips.

“If you wish… I will do my wife’s duty.”

“…”

I tried to ignore the trembling of my fingertips.

I also wondered if the desire caught my mind.

It’s okay if he forgets everything about me in a little while.

The hesitation had already melted away by kissing him.

Because it’s okay to be hurt.

It’s okay if my heart breaks into pieces.

It’s okay to have a relationship that doesn’t make sense.

“You…….”

As if dissatisfied, he stopped what he was about to say and closed his eyes.

He looked like he was trying to contain his anger.

He must have been in a good mood a little while ago, but he must have been offended again.

“Did I make another mistake?”

If not, would she have looked like a sleazy woman?

But Edlade still spoke in a lower voice than usual.

“No, that’s the answer…… I’m willing, indeed.”

That’s all Edlade said.

He gave an ambiguous answer that was neither affirmative nor negative, and then turned his back and walked away casually.

Left alone, I stared blankly at the spot where he stood.

“Ha.”

I flopped down on the bed. 

Embarrassment came later and I hugged the pillow.

‘Crazy, really… crazy!’

I’m going to rebel a little bit.

My overly honest body welcomed him with open arms, far from resisting.

My tongue, which had run away with shame, tried to get entangled with him at least a little bit.

Desire was anxious to reach out a little.

What a miserable woman I looked like.

How did he accept the statement that I would be willing to spend the night as a married couple who had no love?

“Willing…… d…….”

I gathered my knees due to the heat of my body that did not cool down.

I wrapped my knees with both arms and buried my face.

‘This heat… It won’t cool down today.’

If you’ve never experienced it before, it wouldn’t be this much.

Even though it wasn’t her present body, I have seen all of Edlade’s body.

I went through everything.

There is no untouched place, even to the secret corner.

I vividly remember the moment when I accepted him with my whole body.

Because of that, the body that was excited with just one kiss did not sink easily.

As if the master’s thoughts were against it, heat boiled savagely, asking for the next thing.

“Bath…… I need a bath.”

It’s been a long time since I woke up.

I was feeling a little hungry, but the time was already approaching midnight.

What’s the point of waking up Lasha, who went out together? I went into the bathroom and took a bath alone.

There was no hot water either.

I had to soak it in cold water and try to cool it down.

“……. I won’t be able to sleep tonight.”

I closed his eyes after saying it in despair as if it was natural.

It was cold, but it was hot inside.

I was forced to soak in cold water for quite some time in the heat that did not go away easily.

I might catch a cold, but I felt like my body would explode in the heat if I didn’t do this now.

After cooling for a while, I went out to the living room and a small bell rang from the clock hanging on the wall.

It was the sound of midnight.

‘……He must have forgotten.’

It’s a new day.

Her hot kiss with Edlade, which had just been a while ago, has now become yesterday and has been forgotten from his memory.

Even though I knew it, I felt dejected and sat down on the sofa.

Cold air seeped through the robe that wrapped around my body.

“It’s cold.”

Shaking my body, I lay on the sofa and curled up.

It was obviously so hot a little while ago, but now, the awful cold made my bones tremble.

Even though I knew, it hurt.

 

***

 

I fell asleep on the sofa and when I woke up, the dawn was brightening.

I hurriedly changed my clothes before Lasha saw me sleeping on the sofa in this gown.

“Ah.”

My throat was prickly.

I really had a cold again.

As Edlade said, my body was excessively weak.

‘If I get caught, I won’t be able to get out of bed for another week.’

I remember Halbert taking over my work when I had caught a cold due to rain.

It was Halbert who strangely saved me, so I didn’t want to overdo it.

Fortunately, however, there was Noi this time.

The air in the office was a little cool.

As soon as I turned on the magic stone that gave off warm air, it became warm.

There were a few papers piled up on the desk.

I finished everything I had to deal with urgently, and Noi took care of the small things on his own.

All that was left now was to welcome Cheon-rang, who will return to the mansion next week.

“Cheon-rang”

In the Philemon family, there was a knight group called ‘Cheon-rang’.

Not everyone can be a member of the Cheon-rang.

There are no questions about the origin and only when you pass the test completely will you be eligible for the apprenticeship. With relentless training and skills, you will be able to officially become the knight of Cheon-rang.

It was tricky and difficult, but you are given the right treatment when you enter the Cheon-rang Knights.

It was the best in the empire, so honor was the basic thing to follow naturally.

Cheonrang was the name given to only 10 of the Knights.

Each one of them was powerful enough to be compared to more than 100 knights.

They only followed the words of Philemon’s patriarchy and were able to act relatively freely other than that.

‘Aldebaran was also a Cheon-rang Knight.’

In my past life, I was even more frightened by the story of their return.

The fact that the duke called them meant that there was something to be done. Therefore, there should be no neglect in treating them. First impressions are important.

In the past, I was trembling under a blanket in my bedroom, but not now. They gave their lives for Edlade.

Since I came back to correct the tragedy that had caused me, my attitude toward them had to change as well.

‘I’ll treat them well.’

There was not a bit of falsehood in their minds that wielded the sword for Edlade until the end.

As I calmly settled my mind and arranged my thoughts, I heard a knock on the door.

Knock knock~

“My Lady, it’s Halbert.”
