‘Seems like Cecil will open that door and come in any moment.’
Come to think of it, since entering the royal palace, I don’t think I’ve been alone.
Thinking that someone might see us being so close, shivers ran down my spine. I blocked Hadel’s lips, who was trying to kiss me, with both hands and shouted.
“We need to work! What if people come?”
Hadel’s response was concise.
“Don’t come. Today is a day off.”
A day off?
Surprised by the unexpected answer, I blinked. Hadel and a day off. It didn’t seem to fit or make sense.
After all, this damn palace is not a place to leave people alone?
“…Hadel, you’re incredibly busy, aren’t you?”
To my bewildered question, Hadel nodded vigorously. For a moment, it seemed like dark circles had spread under his eyes, whether it was a joke or not.
“I’ve been really busy. I worked harder than usual today to take a break.”
“Worked harder?”
Hadel, who used to complain, looked at me with serious eyes again. Then, in a voice as smooth as melting chocolate, he said,
“It’s impossible to endure any longer.”
A sweet kiss followed immediately.
Actually touching Hadel’s side, I felt the skin clinging more than before, and I could feel the muscles twitching.
‘Hadel, you really lost weight.’
I was touched that he had come to see me despite all the hardships and struggles.
‘Moreover, he said he would have just looked and gone back if I hadn’t woken up.’
The corners of Hadel’s eyes, now reddened, were enchanting. I pressed the ends with my fingers.
‘It seems a bit tanned.’
Maybe it’s because we met after a long time, but I kept looking for the changed appearance of Hadel.
‘Maybe not only yesterday, but did he also come in late at night on other days to see me sleeping!’
At that moment, Hadel lightly nibbled at my neck. With the tingling sensation throughout my body, I shrank my shoulders.
“Ugh! Hadel!”
Hadel twisted his lips lightly.
“You keep getting distracted.”
Then, seemingly deliberately, he nibbled at my neck gently.
“Stop, stop! Ugh!”
With a moan coming from my mouth, Hadel opened his eyes narrowly.
“Sensual sounds.”
“Anyone would make a sound if touched like this… Ugh.”
Who is even here? Hadel, right?
‘It’s you who’s sensual!’
The cute puppy seemed to wake up and feel like I had turned into a large golden retriever.
‘Moreover, it’s not my misconception, but he really looks like he’s about to gulp me down in one bite.’
I felt like I shouldn’t be doing this between the strange feeling and the pleasure being handed over to me.
And at some point, this thought occurred to me.
‘No, why am I the only one worrying?’
In the end, what I’m worrying about is that this is a palace, and sharing love on the sofa right now is not the dignified behavior of royalty. Moreover, we’re unmarried.
‘So what? What? Why? What’s the problem?’
Since coming to the palace, I’ve become stiff. Considering the things that were fine and dandy in the north, it seems like something is bothering me now.
“But really, who cares? After all, the palace etiquette I know is from a hundred years ago, right? Now it’s much more relaxed than back then.”
And above all, etiquette or whatever.
“This, not enjoying it would be a loss!”
…Yeah. Let’s be honest. I succumbed to pleasure.
As I changed my attitude, the next thing was a breeze. As Hadel said, I absorbed a lot of flame mana, so it seemed like I wouldn’t turn into a fox for a while.
“Yeah, this is life.”
Waking up and sleeping in Hadel’s arms, my heart was full of flame and refreshing.
Hadel wanted to take one more day off, but he couldn’t because he was very busy. I was also dragged to work, but I had a strange confidence different from before.
“Bring it on, whatever it is. I’ll burn it all down.”
This was the confidence that comes when the flame is full.
Returning to my palace in high spirits,
“Marian! What’s going on here? It goes against the etiquette! Completely against it!”
The first thing I heard was Sesil’s scolding.
Even after a hundred years, it seems this goes against the now relaxed etiquette. Tch.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
