Estelle’s pulse throbbed against the palm of his hand.
A warm, distinct sensation flowed through his own body. Johannes swallowed unknowingly.
‘It’s not even a difficult task.’
The fingers that he had brought to Estelle’s neck couldn’t exert any strength. They didn’t move at all. For a moment, Johannes wondered if there was something wrong with his hand.
‘I can’t kill her.’
He was more tense, worried that he might accidentally hurt this delicate woman’s neck. Johannes held his hand more tightly.
His heart pounded.
He couldn’t distinguish whether it was the heartbeat of the woman he was holding or his own. Johannes glared at the sleeping Estelle, whose eyes were a creepy red.
A frivolous feeling.
This frivolous feeling and impulse dominated him.
Johannes was caught between the rationality that wanted to deny the fact and the impulse that wanted to accept it. Like a loop that can’t be tied, no conclusion was reached.
“Ha.”
Johannes let out a ridiculous laugh.
“It was nothing.”
At first, Estelle was just a simple revenge target for him to avenge Libertan. But if it were just that, it would be fair to kill her immediately.
‘I thought it was a trivial emotion.’
He was confident that even if some emotion arose, he could easily get rid of it. Even now, that fact has not changed.
‘…However.’
Even while considering Estelle as a variable of this revenge, Johannes couldn’t coldly abandon Estelle.
In the end, she became more than just a revenge target.
He reluctantly acknowledged that fact.
“My wife.”
The woman who, even in this situation, was sleeping soundly without any caution.
Foolishly, she doesn’t know who she has beside her, what will happen while she is asleep.
“Estelle Libertan.”
Johannes slowly called Estelle’s name.
Because the name of the revenge target was not important at all, he didn’t utter it even though he knew it. After all, it didn’t look strange since Estelle also called him ‘Duke’.
Johannes grabbed a handful of Estelle’s pink platinum hair and carefully kissed her. The moments when he was with Estelle flashed back.
“I was wrong. I didn’t want to worry you about a minor illness.”
“Just, it’s not worth unnecessarily consuming emotions.”
“Can you treat me if I want, Duke?”
Estelle continued to make Johannes angry.
When Johannes saw Estelle’s calm attitude, her docile and unguarded attitude, he got angry. Even though it was beneficial to him, he couldn’t endure the anger that welled up emotionally.
‘What if you knew I was trying to kill you?’
Then, the woman might say something similar. It’s okay. Thinking so, he felt a hot surge of anger in his head again.
“…Duke?”
Estelle slowly opened her eyes.
Thankfully, there were no marks left on the neck that he had strangled. Johannes, relieved by that fact, reconfirmed the absurd fact that if he squeezed the woman’s body a little harder, marks would remain.
“Duke. Is something wrong?”
“Nothing special.”
Watching Estelle stretch, Johannes gave a tender smile.
“It’s just so good to see my wife first thing in the morning.”
“No, don’t tease me.”
“Was I too sincere?”
As Johannes shrugged his shoulders, Estelle’s cheeks turned strangely red. The man placed his hand on her pretty cheek.
“…We just woke up together.”
“I might not know, but that’s not it for me.”
This innocent reaction is too cute.
The desire that arose contrary to the plan for the woman who was nothing more than a revenge target. The obsession to want to own everything about this woman, and to leave only me in her entirety.
“Every time I see my wife, I feel a new emotion.”
I need to confirm this desire for you.
Somehow, it doesn’t interfere with this revenge.
“It’s strange.”
Johannes, who looked at Estelle gently, had soft eyes.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]Sleeping with Johannes was harmful to the heart in many ways.
‘What’s going on this morning?’
Honestly, I felt something was unusual since I woke up. But during my sleep, Johannes seemed to have made some kind of decision, acting like a madman.
‘Especially those eyes……’
For a moment, but the red pupils felt like the flames of hell. As if he would drag me to hell and kill me at any moment.
The creepy feeling was so long ago that I got goosebumps.
‘I couldn’t even do anything about the hostess.’
But that didn’t matter. I had already warned Patricia, and Johan had given directions, so all I had to do was ask Betty.
Betty, who happened to come in, greeted me with a pleasant face.
“Madam. Did you sleep well?”
“Mm, did you sleep well, Betty?”
“I couldn’t sleep well because I was worried about you, Madam.”
“Worried about me…?”
I blinked my eyes in question.
“Do I have any problem?”
“Rather than a problem… It was the first day you two shared a bedroom.”
Betty, who had come closer, cautiously spoke.
“I really didn’t know that the master would use this marital bedroom with you, Madam. He originally can’t even sleep with anyone.”
“……”
“I was worried what would happen if you were shocked when the master left you in the middle of the night.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
