Pretending to sleep, I had no way to avoid Rinel’s lips.

Actually, I didn’t want to avoid it.

I left him alone as he explored my lips.

His soft kiss was so sweet that I almost forgot to pretend to sleep and my lips parted.

Perhaps because he heard I was not feeling well, he only gently brushed his lips on mine.

A ticklish sensation forced me to open my eyes.

“Your Majesty, when did you arrive?”

“Just now. Zelda, weren’t you awake?”

I felt caught.

“…I just woke up too, I felt something wriggling on my lips….”

I replied, gently biting my lower lip.

“But… why are you undressed?”

“I thought I should cool you down because you have a fever.”

He spoke as if he was stating a fact.

“I’m okay now.”

I said, gently pushing his firm chest away with both hands.

“So, you’re asking me to move?”

Rinel, perhaps annoyed, intentionally pressed his body further against me and asked.

“…Please, lie comfortably next to me.”

I gestured to my side of the bed.

However, as expected, he didn’t budge.

“You might be okay now, but now I’m not okay.”

“Huh? Where… are you uncomfortable?”

At my words, he buried his face in my neck, chuckled briefly, then lifted his head again.

“Terribly.”

“Where are you going?”

I put my hand on his forehead.

I wondered if he had strained himself from the morning meetings and was now feeling unwell.

Fortunately, he had no fever.

“Where do you feel uncomfortable?”

“It’s not that I’m uncomfortable because something’s wrong, it’s that I’m uncomfortable because it’s too good.”

“What… does that mean?”

“Sigh, you can be so dull.”

Rinel sighed as if exasperated.

“You’re calling me dull?”

I wanted to tell him how fast I had run from the training ground to our bedroom.

“Yeah. Or are you pretending not to know? Teasingly.”

He lightly pinched my cheek.

His smiling face made me feel that he wasn’t in pain, but I couldn’t understand why he was laughing.

“I heard you had a fever and were sweating a lot? Seems true.”

He wiped a bead of sweat from my forehead and spoke.

“Oh, yes… I should have taken a quick shower, but I just… lay down because I wasn’t feeling well earlier. I’ll go to the bathroom for a bit.”

As I tried to get up, he pushed my forehead with his large hand.

“No, just stay as you are.”

“But I’ve sweated so much….”

“It’s okay. I’m going to sweat too.”

“Your Majesty, what…?”

“Sweat. Zelda, maybe if you sweat one more time, your fever will go down more?”

His languid voice made my mind hazy.

“But I’m okay now?”

“What are you talking about? Your body is still this hot.”

Rinel whispered again as he leaned his body against mine.

The look in his eyes was full of desire.

My breath, which had just calmed down, started to rise again.

“I’ve missed you all day. Right here.”

His tender lips broke through mine.

The sweet sensation of him inside my mouth quickly became insistent.

“Ah… I shouldn’t do this to a sick person….”

There was a hint of guilt in Rinel’s voice.

“I’m sorry, I can’t stop.”

His honest confession was incredibly electrifying.

“Zelda, what should I do? I’m such an inconsiderate husband.”

Despite his continued selfblame, his unstoppable passion was incredibly sexy.

“I’m okay. So, please….”

Oh, damn.

My last reasonable word didn’t come to mind.

What should I say?

He stared down at me.

It seemed he was subtly anticipating my next words.

When I didn’t continue after a few seconds, he, tired of waiting, asked first.

“Please… what.”

“….”

As I rolled my eyes around, stalling for time, Rinel opened his mouth again.

“Stay with me tonight?”

He asked, brushing my cheek.

“Yes.”

“Cool down the remaining fever in your body too?”

“Yes?”

“So, please, let’s start?”

“Yes?!”

“Isn’t that what you wanted to say?”

“No, I was saying… Ah!”

Rinel rolled over with me in his arms.

Our positions changed, and I ended up looking down at him.

“Do you know how beautiful you look when you look down at me like this?”

He was already starting to let go of his senses.

And my senses were also ready to surrender willingly to his instinct.

From the start, it was a fight I couldn’t resist or win.

An entirely nonhumiliating surrender.

I wanted to yield to his desire quickly.

“Rinel…”

“Do you know how much you’re tempting me right now?”

I just realized what he was saying. Had my senses suddenly heightened?

“I know.”

“How so?”

“Just a feeling.”

I quietly responded, placing my hands on his chest that was rising and falling.

“Haah…”

Rinel’s chest rose high before falling again.

“Just say it if you start to feel unwell again. No, just bite me.”

“Why should I bite you?”

“Because I don’t think I can stop verbally.”

He said with sincerity.

“But where should I bite?”

“Except for a few places, it doesn’t matter where you bite.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Don’t you want to ask where?”

A playful smile spread across Rinel’s lips.

“Do you want me to ask?”

I asked quietly as I leaned my upper body forward.

I could feel his courageous muscles twitching here and there.

“Well, you could pretend you don’t know.”
