Duke, You're a Bit Stiff (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 105
Though she tried hard to keep a composed face and act as if nothing was wrong, in truth it wasn’t so.
Cassus had spent many nights with her even after they consummated their marriage.
As days passed under the moonlight, feeling each other’s touch, the bed’s lifespan had deteriorated to the point where it absolutely needed replacing.
Afterward, when they complained about the bed being faulty and got a new one, it wasn’t long before even that sturdy bed began to creak.
No matter how much Cassus held Artia, his thirst never seemed quenched.
‘Was I really this lecherous before…?’
Whether it was because he was in his prime or not, Cassus grew slightly uneasy at the thought that no matter how old he got, his body would keep burning with desire like this.
‘What if she starts to hate me?’
If the day ever came when Artia grew tired of him, Cassus felt he’d truly be miserable.
At the gym, Cassus stayed glued to Artia’s side, watching vigilantly like a hawk to ensure no other man approached her.
If any man so much as spoke a word to Artia, Cassus would instantly and ruthlessly shut him down.
Yet, every time he saw Artia in leggings that clearly outlined her figure, Cassus felt guilty.
Artia was sincerely focused on training her body, yet he kept having impure thoughts—so much so that he pinched his own thighs mercilessly again and again.
Because of this, his firm thighs were now covered in bruises all over.
Whenever Artia noticed the growing number of bruises and asked why he kept getting so injured, Cassus would excuse himself by saying he’d been absentminded lately and kept bumping into things.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
