This clause was the most important one for Blair, as it was intended to be used when it was time to have Asiel.
However, she couldn’t tell him the truth.
She couldn’t talk about her rebirth or such nonsense, and above all, he must not know about Asiel’s existence.
If he found out, he might even try to eliminate Asiel, who could become an obstacle, in order to raise the child born from Miella as his successor.
That was absolutely unacceptable.
Blair’s plan was to finalize everything related to him before having Asiel, and then divorce him and leave the empire before he could realize she was pregnant.
In the end, Blair came up with a plausible lie.
“I just… I want to get along with you, even if it’s only for a while…”
Herdin smirked as he watched Blair, who was hiding her true thoughts.
“A good relationship, huh?”
How could we possibly have a good relationship?
With just one word from your mother, with just one statement from you, my deceased aunt was buried underground without even being able to defend herself, disgraced.
I didn’t even know what the truth was, but I had to accept it.
Even if I didn’t know what her purpose was, she seemed quite desperate, even willing to sacrifice her own body. Her appearance was amusing.
If you rejected my desperation and are now simply accepting everything from our side, well… That makes me feel somewhat belittled.
Herdin stood up and approached Blair.
In an instant, they were in close quarters, and Blair held her breath.
He was right in front of her, close enough that their breaths could touch if she exhaled.
“So, according to this clause, we must fulfill the obligations of a couple.”
Blair trembled as she felt his hand gently caress her cheek, and his soft voice echoed in her ear. But what surprised her more than anything was his words.
She hadn’t expected him to use this clause first. She had made the clause just in case, but she didn’t think he would use it anymore now that he didn’t have to pretend to love her.
“I want it right now.”
His intense desire was clearly evident in his blue eyes as he gazed at her lips. His hand that encircled her cheek touched her lips with his thumb.
Feeling the warmth from his fingertips, her heart began to race rapidly.
At that moment, as Herdin looked at Blair’s lips, their eyes met.
“Right now.”
In his blue eyes, there was a raw, unbridled desire.
Blair, taken aback by the raw desire, had no time to react as his lips descended upon hers.
Suddenly, Blair remembered that he was a man too.
“Men can overlap with someone they don’t care about,” she thought.
Yeah, this wasn’t love. It wasn’t pretending to love for another purpose either. It was just a momentary desire.
Thinking this way, Blair felt more at ease. If it meant giving herself to him in exchange for being able to see Asiel again, she could do it anytime.
Blair collected her confused thoughts and closed her eyes in resignation.
Herdin, without delay, parted Blair’s lips with his own and invaded her mouth. He found her quivering tongue and tangled with it.
“Umm…”
As their moist flesh touched, a moan escaped involuntarily. Breathing became erratic, and heat surged through her body. Her mind grew hazy.
His lips were still hot and sweet, almost cruelly so.
Herdin lightly embraced Blair and brought her onto his thighs, beginning to devour her in earnest.
Thick lips, soft tongue, labored breath, moans escaping like sobs, everything.
Herdin grabbed Blair’s shoulder straps that had slipped down over her robe.
“Ah…!”
Startled, Blair tried to pull away from the sudden move, and Herdin stopped his kiss.
Blair hesitated for a moment when their eyes met. His eyes resembled the fierce gaze of a beast interrupted during its meal.
However, despite that, he showed no intention of letting her go from his embrace. As a result, his arms tightened firmly around her.
Because of that, something substantial could be felt beneath her tightly pressed thighs. Blair’s body froze as she realized what it was.
She wanted to get up right away, but if she moved, she might get even closer to him.
Avoiding his gaze, Blair spoke in a small voice.
“Let’s go to the bed… to the bed, please.”
It was almost like begging.
Herdin looked at Blair in silence for a moment and then, as she requested, picked her up swiftly.
During that brief moment, he didn’t stop kissing her throat. He sucked on it as if he were a hungry beast.
With firm steps, they walked to the bed, where Herdin gently laid Blair down. He had already begun to remove the nightgown that had been partially undone.
His gaze remained fixed on Blair throughout the process.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
