Just as if showing the situation a while ago, strawberries were rolling on the table.
When she hastily moved her gaze to the floor, as if to prove the time they had yearned for each other, clothes were spread on the floor.
With a heavy heart, Delia tightly closed her eyes.
With her eyes closed, his firm chest touching her back and the humid breath flowing in her nape felt even more vivid.
Sharing a bed with the enemy.
There was no way to avoid this situation no matter what she did.
If it couldn’t be avoided, she had to fend off a bit brazenly.
“Okay. It was worth trying once. It wasn’t bad.”
At Delia’s answer, Aaron’s eyebrows twitched.
“Just that?”
“What else do you need?”
“Say it again. Different from your previous answer?”
Aaron moved his hand to the heart as he pulled Delia deeper.
“It was because the commander was so aggressive that I had to survive. It was perjury by threat. That’s what it was.”
Aaron looked at Delia, who was unashamedly babbling, and subtly strengthened his grip.
“Can you swear by your heart that what you said is true?”
At the pressure felt through the heart, Delia took a quick breath.
As Delia, cornered, struggled to escape, his arms tightened even more.
“I just told you. Why do you keep asking?”
Feeling Delia flustered, Aaron’s eyes softened.
“I get it. I’ll believe you.”
“It’s really true.”
“Alright. I’ll believe as the prisoner said. So tell me, what’s your identity?”
The clear echoing voice quickly faded.
Delia held her breath as if her heart had stopped.
Her whole body stiffened, and she couldn’t move a single finger.
The relationship between the man holding her waist from behind and herself felt eerily clear.
He was the supreme commander of the Stilitz Empire that invaded Eorenti.
She absolutely shouldn’t reveal her identity to him.
That she is the princess of the Kingdom of Eorenti.
With heightened vigilance, Delia asked.
“Why? Are you going to use me because of one time? Dream on. I’m not someone easily used.”
Aaron gently sucked on her ear, as if to relax the stiff body in his arms.
“I’m not that shameless to use such a thing. And I’m sorry, but the prisoner no longer has any use.”
“Why do you ask then?”
“When the war ends, I’m going to send a marriage proposal.”
“What?”
Delia abruptly sat up, covering her body that had become red like a flame.
Her rough movement made her shining hair flutter.
The expression on Delia, looking down on Aaron, was filled with shock.
“Commander. You’re not in your right mind.”
Aaron, lying on the bed, just smiled leisurely.
His silver hair, resembling his smile, sparkled beautifully.
“Our army will spare your family’s territory.”
‘Eorenti itself is our family’s territory?’
Delia swallowed words she couldn’t dare utter.
“I will give your family the title of the Stilitz Empire.
‘A royal family of one country with the title of an enemy country. It’s so humiliating that I’d rather die.’
“I’ll let you enjoy more than you did in Eorenti.”
‘I don’t need such a thing.’
Delia, screaming inside, clenched the quilt tighter.
It seemed like she had to make their relationship clear to the commander of the enemy country.
“Commander. It seems like you’ve forgotten. We are enemies. It’s troublesome if you keep being sticky because we slept together just once.”
“Just once we slept together?”
“We are enemies fighting with guns pointed at each other. But marriage?”
Delia tried to get away from Aaron, turning her head ferociously.
One mistake is enough.
She clenched the quilt tightly and moved her body outside the bed.
But in a flash, her vision flipped, and she was drawn under Aaron.
The distinct gray eyes of the Shuterights Royal Family were looking down at her with a strange energy.
“Let go immediately, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that nonsense.”
Delia’s voice trembled involuntarily under the immense energy that enveloped her.
He had a sturdy body honed as a soldier.
Wide shoulders that had been supporting Delia when she was about to collapse powerless.
Strong arms that lifted her up without shaking.
The tremors from his body had lingered like an aftereffect, shaking Delia’s heart.
“You already heard it. That I’ll propose.”
Delia spat out the words more resolutely to hide her own trembling.
“It’s nonsensical. We’re enemies. Yet, we’re going to get married? During the war?”
“I’ll make it possible.”
“I don’t want it. You’re a prideful imperial soldier. If I reject, you said you won’t. Marriage is also a personal matter. If I refuse, you can’t do it.”
“That’s right. I won’t force you. I’ll wait patiently. Until you give your permission.”
As always, Aaron’s lips drew a beautiful curve.
His voice was as low and soft as foam.
However, Delia couldn’t hide her creepy feeling.
“There will never be a chance for permission. Especially for marriage.”
“Really?”
“Commander. Distinguish between public and private matters clearly. We’re enemies and if we take a step out from here, we have to fight for our lives.”
“Then, I’ll lock you up so that you can’t take a single step. As a commander, keeping a prisoner from escaping is part of my public duties.”
Aaron’s large hand gently brushed Delia’s cheek and neck.
“Until you give your permission, I’ll hold on to you.”
“Commander!!!”
Delia’s horrified scream echoed through the headquarters of the Shuterights Commander.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
