When she looked at Heon in bewilderment, Heon’s eyes assured her that everything was fine. Having received his assurance, MoonWon turned back to Doyoon and cautiously bowed.

“Your Excellency… I mean, Your Majesty, I do not know what you mean, but thank you for your consideration. However, that won’t be necessary, so I will merely accept your goodwill.”

If he said one thing, she returned it twofold. She spoke confidently, unlike most women, but it wasn’t bad. The more they spoke, the more fun she seemed.

Doyoon liked Heon, but he also took a liking to MoonWon. However, he wasn’t so foolish as to covet another man’s wife.

Meanwhile, Doyoon watched MoonWon as she bid her husband farewell and didn’t take his eyes off her until she left.

“It seems that the lady will become your weakness.”

Heon did not say anything in response.

* * *

Although they had prepared a room for him, Doyoon left the bamboo grove late at night when he heard everything he came to hear. MoonWon didn’t know why the Emperor of Ju had come all the way over here to see Heon, but she kept her questions to herself.

Even if she asked, he’d tell her the pleasant things, but he’d keep his mouth shut if it was not. At times, it was a bit frustrating, but the Heon she knew would never tell her something unpleasant.

“Please rest.”

After having finished preparing the bedding, Yeori bowed to MoonWon. After Yeori left, MoonWon turned her eyes to Heon.

Even though he was the Chief Commander of SeoMoon, he had a relationship with the Emperor of Ju.

Although it was a dangerous situation, MoonWon did not feel bothered. She just realized anew that the life Heon lived was not an easy one.

“She said that the bedding has been prepared.”

Heon, who had been looking out the window, turned his head to MoonWon.

His expression was blank, and she couldn’t tell what he was thinking. However, she still smiled at him.

She didn’t mind that he didn’t show his emotions on his face. She didn’t mind that he wasn’t much of a talker. She could just smile more, and she could be the first one to begin a conversation with him.

As MoonWon turned to leave, Heon quietly grabbed her arm and pulled. He buried his face against her body.

“If we are to return to the main residence tomorrow, we should go to sleep early.”

“I don’t want to go.”

Even though he ordered the bedding to be prepared, he was now telling her that he didn’t want to go to his room. Although his expression did not betray any emotion, his eyes were filled with it as they looked at MoonWon.

“There is still one last thing we need to do as a married couple.”

Was this man planning on suffocating her by making her gasp? MoonWon felt her skin flush from the sign of impending danger as she pushed against his shoulder. However, he grabbed her hands before she could succeed.

“We can do that later…”

“Later when?”

Had he always known how to use her own words against her? Heon watched as she tried to avoid him. He narrowed his eyes as if to tell her he wouldn’t let her go.

“Didn’t you say you’d stay with me?”

“I definitely did say that, but…”

Their first night as man and wife had passed by without any event, but now she couldn’t escape it. MoonWon swallowed her breath at the thought that Heon might be able to hear her racing heartbeats.

“Don’t tell me you believe that a child is brought over by a stork…”

“That’s not it at all!”

Heon burst into laughter.

At first, MoonWon thought Heon was a fearful, cold man. But now she felt that he was actually a very mischievous man.

“If I tell you I don’t want to, will you let me go for the night?”

“Are you deserting me?”

“No! Definitely not that!”

MoonWon fiercely shook her head.

“I’m a bit… Actually, I’m very nervous.”

Although she was usually as steady as any man he knew, this was another side of her he hadn’t seen before.

Before her royal engagement to JaeHoon, she was given a few books to study and her mother had personally come to tell her what would happen. However, that was completely different from actually doing the deed.

She wished she’d just faint. But rather than feeling lightheaded, she felt that her senses were becoming more clear whenever they interacted.

“Me too.”

The rolling fear came to a halt when she heard his words.

Heon was telling her that he was nervous just as much as she was. Heon might have said it to make her feel more relaxed, but it still managed to calm her nerves.

It wasn’t that she didn’t feel scared. But seeing as how Heon was opening his heart to her, she wanted to open up her heart to him as well.

MoonWon wrapped her hand around Heon’s cheek and drew closer to him.

Her trembling lips lightly brushed against his. Her timid touch made his last strand of reason quiver precariously. As she pulled back, Heon quickly grabbed her and locked her within his embrace.

The thin skirt of her nightgown was taken off by Heon’s hand.

MoonWon bit her lips as her naked body was exposed to the soft candlelight. She was even embarrassed to show her body to Yeori and took her baths alone.

“Husband, the light…”

She cautiously brought up the light. But when she felt the feverish breath on her shoulder, she caught her breath.

The delicate curve of her shoulders seemed to be drawn by a painter. His lips automatically went to them. Heon was overcome with a feeling different from when their lips met in a kiss. When she felt his lips on her shoulder followed by his rough tongue, MoonWon began to tremble in his arms.

“Haa.”

With one arm covering her breasts, MoonWon clung onto Heon. Her eyes were damp.

“It’s okay.”

She was too precious and important. He didn’t want to get drunk on his own selfish desires. She was the woman he had decided to spend the rest of his life with. He wanted to accept the love she offered and give her his in return as they lived a long life together.

He licked the tears that were clinging to the edge of her eyes.

He hated women’s tears, but MoonWon’s tasted sweet.

“Haa.”

As her breaths grew more strained, Heon’s lips stretched into a smile.

“The light…”

MoonWon’s anxious eyes turned to the candle. He felt sorry for MoonWon’s discomfort, but Heon wanted to look at MoonWon a little while longer.

He loved the feel of her smooth skin against his. He didn’t feel this way because she was a woman. He felt this way because she was MoonWon.

“Ah! Husband!”

“I’ll look for a little longer.”

MoonWon looked like she was on the verge of tears, but Heon hadn’t seen all of her yet. He laid her down on the bedding and began to take off his own clothes. MoonWon closed her eyes when she saw that he was naked.

“Hnng.”

His lips on the nape of her neck were scorching hot as if they were branding her skin. When she felt him continue his advance, MoonWon grew surprised and pulled away. But before she could move, his arm wrapped around her hips.

“Haa.”

When his lips buried themselves against her pale neck, MoonWon let out a sigh. Her soft body against his, the moans leaking out of her mouth as she tried to hold them back… All of it served to arouse him even further.

Holding both of her arms in one hand, Heon raised them above her head.

When he saw her glaring up at him, he smiled for a moment. Then his scorching mouth began to suck her lower lip. He sucked and bit her lips until they grew red and swollen, but instead of stopping, he bared his teeth and bit down once again.

“Ow!”

MoonWon frowned at the piercing pain. He buried his face into her collar as if to console her before licking along the valleys of her collarbone.

His hand stroked her arms as they traveled down to her breast. Her skin was so soft that he felt like they’d melt at the touch. He squeezed them and teased them in turn before lightly pinching their peaks.

MoonWon let out a moan, but it was soon muffled by Heon’s lips. As his tongue dominated hers, his hand slowly moved down her stomach. His hand stopped at her bottom and squeezed.

“Hnng.”

After he squeezed her firm bottom, Heon’s hand slowly moved along the sleek curve. After placing a few more kisses on her lips, Heon’s lips traveled past her collar and moved towards her chest.

He bared his teeth and lightly scraped them along her skin, creating a red trail in its wake. As if that weren’t enough, Heon buried his face in the valley of her breasts and took in a deep breath.

The more traces he left on her body, the sweeter her scent seemed to be. Drawn by her sweet scent, Heon unconsciously bit down. The following moan drove him crazy.

“I won’t give you to anyone else.”

The words hissed out of his clenched teeth. MoonWon’s heart trembled.

“I’m yours, Husband.”

Heon wanted her just as much as she wanted him. MoonWon’s hand touched his cheek. The sweat forming on his brow trickled in between her fingers.

“I’m going to be with you.”

The more she spoke, the more his brow twitched. She didn’t want to make him feel nervous anymore. From now on, Heon was the man she’d spend the rest of her life with.

“I’m going to be with you, Husband.”

As the light was extinguished, Heon’s lips covered hers.

As if this were the first time Heon was having a taste of ecstasy, his touch was more rough than gentle. More frantic than relaxed.

“Haa.”

After having received his attention until now, MoonWon began to approach him. The hand that had been clinging to his shoulder now wrapped around his back, and the other arm was entwined around his neck.

As their breaths grew faster, so did their touch.

“Ugh.”

After biting and sucking the peaks of her breast, Heon’s lip enclosed around it once again. MoonWon’s hips twisted underneath him. Although she couldn’t help it due to the rising fever spreading throughout her body, Heon frowned when he felt her try to escape.

His hand firmly held onto her hips as they struggled to get away. Her soft body squirming underneath him pushed him to his limit. Like a starving, savage beast, he was drawn to her flawless, rosy skin.

“H-Husband!”

With every breath he took, his desire for MoonWon grew stronger. He tried to hold back, but the pleasure only intensified with each second that passed.

Heon’s hand traveled up her parted legs. MoonWon shook her head as she felt him draw closer to that hidden place. Suddenly, she felt his fingers brush against her sensitive flesh.

“No! You mustn’t… Haa.”

Although she was embarrassed, his fingers did not hesitate to plunge into her entrance. She tried to close her legs at the unexpected intrusion, but his fingers continued to stroke her.

Her face grew warm. Her damp eyes filled with tears again.

“Ah… Aaah.”

Before she could tell him to stop, another finger entered deep within her. As if to soothe her trembling body, Heon pressed his lips to her eyes.

She never knew her body could make sounds like this. The wet sounds were embarrassingly loud, and she felt like her lungs would burst as her moans filled the room.

“You’re doing well.”

“It feels uncomfortable.”

“It’ll get better.”

“I’m tired… I don't know what to do.”

Having known no other man, MoonWon looked up at Heon in confusion. When their eyes met, Heon reached his limit. Pulling his hands away from her drenched entrance, Heon grabbed her thigh.

MoonWon flinched when she felt the swollen head of his cock touch her entrance. When she tried to escape, Heon held on and slowly buried himself inside her.

“Hmm. Hnnnng.”

A completely different moan left MoonWon’s lips. Having received a man for the very first time, MoonWon held her breath as she bit her lips.

“It’s okay.”

“It… hurts.”

“You need to relax for it to feel better.”

He had only entered halfway. When he felt her wet walls squeeze around him, Heon bit his lips as well. When he moved his hips to thrust a little further inside, MoonWon’s frown deepened as if she’d faint.

“Haa.”

MoonWon let out a deep breath in order to relax, but the pain did not go away too easily.

She endured the ache and glanced up at Heon. Because MoonWon seemed to be in a lot more pain than expected, Heon’s brows were furrowed and he could not continue.

“It’s okay. I can take it.”

When he saw her smiling at him, Heon pressed his lips to the tip of her eye, As if to soothe her, Heon began to softly caress her body.

When she saw his silent expression, MoonWon quietly embraced him. With her permission, when Heon felt her body relax to a certain extent, he filled her all the way.

“Haa.”

Although it wasn’t as painful as the beginning, it still stung. Did she have to feel this pain every time she accepted a man into her body? Her eyes twitched at the hazy thought for only a moment. Her head was soon wiped clean of any thought.

This wasn’t just any man. It was Heon. If it was him, she could endure any kind of pain.

“...It’ll get better soon.”

Having noticed that she was having a difficult time, Heon whispered in a low voice as he kept still within her. Even though he could have moved as he wished, he was waiting for her.

“I love you.”

Heon’s body tensed when he heard her whisper.

“I love you, Husband.”

MoonWon pressed her lips against his after her confession. Heon began to move.

His gentle thrusts soon grew frantic. Although she felt immense pain when she first received him, her body was soon filled with a different kind of heat.

When he pulled out, the emptiness only lasted a moment. Whenever he plunged back into her, her tender body shook. She couldn’t hear the kinds of sounds bursting out of her throat. All she could feel was Heon’s presence filling her up.

Instead of pushing him away, MoonWon wrapped her arms around his neck. Heon’s arms were enclosed around her hips and gripping her thigh.

The moment she felt as if her body would burn and disappear from this heat, the fever reached its peak. Then she heard Heon let out a low groan as he exploded inside her.

“Haa.”

MoonWon let out a gasp when she felt the strange sensation of being filled up inside. She tried to calm down, but due to the aftereffects of their fierce bout of lovemaking, her body could not stop shaking.

“Huu.”

Heon let out a sigh and buried his face against her chest. He liked smelling her sweet fragrance and hearing her heart racing inside her chest.

After listening to her heartbeats with his eyes closed, Heon slowly got up.

Seeing her lying limp on the bed, Heon pressed a kiss on her lips.

MoonWon couldn’t muster the energy to open her eyes, but she smiled when she felt his kiss and opened her mouth.

Their breaths tangled, and their emotions melted together.

After their kiss, Heon pulled her into his arms. He gently stroked her back and let out a satisfied sigh.
