In front of my eyes that blinked open due to a somewhat stuffy feeling, the first thing I saw was the well-toned chest of a muscular man.

I slowly lifted my head as Cahilern, who was holding me, grinned. His face looked happier than ever.

“Did you sleep well?”

With Cahilern’s voice sounding slightly more relaxed than usual, the memories of last night suddenly came to mind, and I lowered my head deeply. The well-defined muscles that reached down to the belly button came into view, and unable to handle the situation, I eventually closed my eyes tightly.

‘Ah, I did it.’

Yes, I did. Eventually, it happened.

Honestly, I didn’t imagine such a day would come, but even so, I didn’t expect it would be yesterday.

“Do you want to sleep more?”

Cahilern, brushing his back, asked affectionately. My shoulders twitched at the sensation of his large hand touching my bare skin.

The current situation was quite embarrassing, but if Cahilern were to ask whether I regretted last night, the answer would be no. If I were to go back to yesterday, I would make the same choice. Fortunately.

‘I do like Cahilern.’

It might seem absurd to fully realize my feelings after spending just one night, but it didn’t seem like a bad thing. I laughed silently, and Cahilern hugged me, placing his lips on my forehead.

“If you’re not sleeping well, I wish I could help.”

Wondering what he wanted help with, I raised my head, and he smiled mischievously. Cahilern’s movements, sticking so close, made my face flush.

“Oh my!”

Covering my mouth with both hands, I looked away quietly as Sylvia exclaimed in admiration.

“Oh my, oh my!”

Sylvia continued to express her admiration, and it only stopped after I intervened.

“You finally had your wedding night!”

Sylvia seemed very proud of her advice, and indeed, her help was significant.

If Sylvia hadn’t made such remarks yesterday, it would have been an ordinary day without any incidents. It’s just a little embarrassing to have rushed over after hearing those remarks.

Sylvia gently wiped my body with a sponge. She seemed to want to ask many things but maintained a restrained expression. Feeling like a magpie repaying a favor, I said with a grateful tone.

“Ask just one thing. I won’t answer two.”

“Do fireworks explode above your head and do bells ring in your ears as described in novels?”

…I began to wonder what kind of books she was reading.

Macha and Randolf repeatedly glanced at Cahilern, who seemed unusually happy, with puzzled looks. However, they soon seemed to realize it was related to me. The subtly changed atmosphere between Cahilern and me clearly indicated progress.
Asking Cahilern wouldn’t get me an answer, as Macha looked at me and twinkled her eyes.

However, I pretended not to see and avoided his gaze. Then, as if they were someone whose interesting story had been abruptly interrupted, Macha and Randolf looked at me with intense curiosity.

“Should I teach you how to ride a horse?”

In response to Cahilern’s question, I nodded. In Hyllic, even women rode horses, and there were occasional events related to horseback riding in the royal palace. Learning in advance would undoubtedly be useful.

Randolf brought out Cahilern’s most cherished black horse.

Cahilern, who climbed onto the mounting block, quickly seated me on the horse, holding my waist. Suddenly, the memory of him holding my waist last night came to mind, and my face turned red, causing Cahilern to chuckle.

After Cahilern mounted behind me, he leaned against my back and kissed my cheek. Although Macha and Randolf seemed to scold with their expressions, Cahilern didn’t care at all.

Ten days passed very quickly. During that time, Cahilern and I strolled along the beach in the morning and evening, explored the port city, and enjoyed local festivals.

It was the first time since the possession that I spent each day happily without any worries. On the last day, it was regrettable to return to the palace.

I heard about the origin of the fairy named Rin. It was a young shoot that looked like it would sprout soon, contained in a small glass bottle.

It was unexpected that something so tender and weak-looking could be the origin of a fairy.

When I returned to the palace, I planned to negotiate with Shanna and Elia using Rin and Shanna’s origins.

To do that, I needed to find a way to separate Flora and Shanna, who were always together like one body.

“Have a good trip.”

As Cahilern and I entered the palace, we went to greet the king. The king’s face, which had become more vibrant, was not good enough to die anytime soon.

Until recently, he used to throw statues at Cahilern, who made childish remarks, but now he seemed reluctant to even lift a book. However, despite my pity for him, he didn’t seem to like me very much. Somehow, his gaze was more piercing than usual.

“Did you hear about Violet Viscount being involved in a scam?”

Damn it, this must have been the ominous foreboding that lingered before leaving for the honeymoon.
