Madam and the Stable Keeper (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 123
“We should start getting ready to enter soon.”
Edith turned the conversation awkwardly, fearing someone might notice his blatant gaze.
“…….”
Walter quietly adjusted Edith’s veil and then fixed his eyes straight ahead. He felt he’d struggle to restrain his urges if he didn’t shift his gaze elsewhere.
In truth, he wanted nothing more than to cast her veil onto the floor right then and there and cup her flushed cheeks in his hands.
He longed to taste those lips that so subtly concealed desire, to torment them until she confessed exactly what she wanted and since when she’d felt this way.
It had weighed heavily on him since he noticed that morning how she had looked at his bare torso with eyes unlike her usual ones.
He’d thought he could keep his hunger well in check, yet meeting those slyly curious blue eyes had melted his resolve like a crumbling fortress.
Even checking the recommended rest period mentioned in during wedding preparations—and confirming it was an appropriate time to respond to his wife’s desires—could ultimately be traced back to Edith herself providing the impetus.
“Now that I think of it, if we hold the ceremony now, tonight will be our wedding night, won’t it?”
“……!”
“Tradition really is something. They say the marriage could even be declared invalid if the wedding night isn’t consummated.”

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
