Finally, the wedding day arrived.
“I’m getting married...”
Looking out the window, Elze muttered in vain. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t believe it. The garden was bustling with servants from the imperial family. They were busily setting up tables, talking among themselves, and hanging transparent veils over trees.
The pure white virgin road running through the middle of the garden particularly caught Elze's eye. As Elze was staring blankly at it, a knock came and a voice called her.
"Miss."
It was the sound that signaled the end of the short break. Elze was momentarily frustrated by the sound that was scarier than the call of the grim reaper, but she soon straightened her face and told them to come in.
“Come in.”
As soon as Elze gave permission, the maids came in and surrounded her as if they were surrounding her. And Elze was held captive by them and had to start dressing up again. The dressing up that started with a bath at dawn showed no sign of ending. Elze, who had eaten only a bowl of soup all day, muttered helplessly.
"Hungry..."
But Elze's pitiful appeal fell on deaf ears. Rosalie, the chief maid who had come out of the palace, spoke firmly with a stern expression.
“No, you can’t. Instead, I’ll give you something to drink.”
“...”
And Elze had to go through hell again.
“Ugj!!”
She didn't think it would hurt this much even if she got stabbed by a knife. Tears welled up in her eyes as the corset straps tightened without mercy. Of course, she couldn't cry as she pleased.
“My makeup is smudging.”
Elze had to hold back the tears that were rising. Rumors of corsets crushing her ribs and internal organs kept coming to her mind.
After tightening her corset to the point of suffocation, she put on her knickers and petticoat and then put on a crinoline to hold up her dress. The crinoline, made of strong whalebone to hold up the heavy hem of her dress, was quite heavy on its own. Elze felt like she was carrying a basket upside down.
Then finally the wedding dress. They spread the bottom of the dress wide with a long stick, then carefully lowered it down so that it covered Elze's body. They smoothed out the wrinkles and buttoned up the densely packed buttons on the back one by one.
The maids, who had been discussing it among themselves, neatly tied up Elze's ivory hair. They placed a tiara studded with crystals on her head and a veil of delicately embroidered lace hanging down.
Just when she thought she would die before the wedding, the makeup was finished. The maid showed Elze the full-length mirror with a satisfied look on her face.
“If anything is lacking or you are not satisfied with anything, please tell me without holding back.”
Elze blinked. The girl in the mirror was unfamiliar. The girl in the pure white dress, perfectly dressed, did not seem like Elze. She looked like a Princess from a fairy tale. But Elze did not have time to properly appreciate her own appearance.
The maid held Elze and repeated the things she had to pay attention to during the wedding. Elze, who had already memorized everything, listened to what she said with one ear and looked out the window. Through the window, she could see the guests entering one by one. Looking at the people filling the Targayel garden, she was already dizzy.
After finishing her make-up, Elze took a short rest and then went down to the garden. While waiting inside the white tent, she heard loud music and voices outside.
Just a moment ago, she was so out of it that she didn't know what was going on, but suddenly the wedding started to feel real. Elze, who had been running around a lot even on the battlefield, felt her body tremble with tension.
At some point, the noise subsided. Along with it, the sound of the groom entering could be heard, and the officiant's voice could be heard.
While Elze was absentmindedly listening to what the master was saying, the maids helped Elze up. They said as they busily straightened her crumpled dress.
“You must leave now.”
A veil was placed over Elze's face. The girls, led by Elze, who was embarrassed by her vision being obstructed, headed towards the Virgin Road.
The guests were packed on both sides of the Virgin Road, and the knights were standing here and there in case of an emergency. When Elze appeared, everyone clapped their hands until their palms broke and cheered. The applause was so loud that it hurt her ears.
Most of those cheering were people Elze did not know. They had gathered not to celebrate Elze's marriage, but to celebrate Shan's rise to power as Count Targayel.
Elze stood at the end of the virgin road amidst the packed guests. Astin, who had been waiting nearby, approached Elze and stood next to her. Astin, wearing a bow tie and a suit, was faintly visible through the veil. Astin took off his large glasses and neatly combed his hair, and Elze relaxed a little.
“Please escort me.”
Astin took Elze's hand at the whisper of the maid assisting her. Astin, whose eyes were already red from the brink of tears, still escorted Elze in a dignified manner.
At the end of the virgin road where they walked hand in hand, there was Shan. It was inexplicable how each step they took felt so big. Elze stopped in front of Shan, and Astin handed Elze’s hand to Shan.
“...”
Shan's hand wrapped around Elze's. He squeezed her hand tightly once and then let go. With the help of the maids, Elze sat down next to Shan, facing him.
Shan lifted Elze's veil. Her vision, which had been cloudy until then, became clear for the first time. Elze opened her eyes wide as she saw Shan standing right in front of her.
Shan, with his hair neatly combed back and dressed in a smoky suit, looked more noble and elegant than anyone else. His firm body and sparkling purple eyes. The moment she met his eyes, her heart pounded and her face heated up.
Elze was still so out of it that she began to reflect on herself, wondering if she had been weak to such a handsome man.
She couldn't hear a single word the priest was saying. She just stood there, not knowing what to do, when Shan grabbed Elze's hand. Then he quickly took off her glove and put a silver ring on her fourth finger. Elze finally came to her senses at the feeling of the cool metal.
At that moment, the voice of the priest, which she had never heard before, was heard clearly.
“...a kiss of oath.”
With those words, Shan's lips came closer. Elze, who had been preoccupied with his face, quickly closed her eyes in bewilderment at the approaching lips. Her heart, which had been pounding just a moment ago, suddenly began to beat faster. Elze was not ready to kiss Shan.
It was just a ceremonial kiss, according to the order of the meal... Elze tried to calm her mind by thinking that way. Then she waited for Shan’s lips to approach.
But the moment their lips touched, Elze had to open her eyes wide again. She thought they would just lightly touch lips and end it. But that was just Elze’s thought.
“Ugh...!”
He parted her lips and delved into her tongue. As Elze, startled by the somewhat rough kiss, swayed, his hands held her waist tightly. With a sloshing sound, his tongue swirled around her mouth. The guests cheered and jeered at the deep kiss.
Shan didn't close his eyes. He was looking straight at Elze. Elze trembled without realizing it. It felt like her body was being pierced by his purple gaze. Her mind became hazy. His tongue licked Elze's lips. Slowly, their lips parted, and Shan let out a hot breath. The moment the passionate kiss ended, Elze let out a gasp of breath she had been holding. The guests shouted loudly.
“May God bless you on your new journey!”
Flower petals fell from all directions, bells rang, and the guests all stood up and cheered. Elze looked at Shan amidst the fluttering flower petals.
“...”
He smiled faintly without saying a word. The faint excitement from the kiss that had just passed remained in his eyes. Shan quickly turned his gaze away from Elze and nodded briefly at the guests. Elze followed suit and bowed slightly.
But unlike her body which moved mechanically, her mind was complicated with thoughts about the rough kiss.
The relationship between Shan and Elze was nothing more than a political marriage, nothing more, nothing less. To be more precise, both Elze and Shan were bad luck to each other, so they were worse than strangers.
But what was that passionate kiss?
There was a sticky emotion to his kiss, which was clearly aimed at Elze and no one else.
There was no reason for him to have such feelings for 'Erzenes'. Really, there was not even a bit...
The wedding was over, but the real festivities were just beginning.
In keeping with the tradition of the Baluar, the guests feasted and drank in the Targayel mansion for the night after the wedding. While the guests merrily reveled through the night, the bride and groom prepared for their first night together.
“Madam, please stand up.”
"Ah..."
The title had already changed. Elze, who had become a madam from a young lady, slowly got up from the bathtub. With a sloshing sound, the bath water mixed with rose petals fell. The maids wiped Elze’s body with a towel and applied perfume. They also rounded the tips of her nails and thoroughly checked the pubic area between her legs.
“I will dress you.”
The clothes the maids made her wear were light and see-through gowns. It seemed like they would be easy to take off, but Elze wore them obediently.
Before taking a bath, Rosalie, the head maid, told Elze a story while taking off her dress. Thanks to her stories, Elze realized how lucky she was.
Marriages between noble families were mostly political marriages. As such, the marriage partners would often exchange portraits and only see each other properly at the wedding hall. That is why the inspection before the first night was said to be very strict.
Not only did they examine the appearance of the genitals, they even checked for the presence of the hymen. They even set up a curtain during the first night and checked to see if things were going well. And all the details were reported directly to each family.
Fortunately, there was no one for Elze or Shan to report to. The Targayel House only had Elze and Astin, and the Cirxus House had been completely wiped out, so Shan had no family either.
Even though she was born and raised in the Baluar Empire, Elze still had memories of living in modern-day Korea. If she had really been checked all over her body and had to be watched until the first night... The mere thought was horrifying. It was something Elze absolutely could not accept.
“Madam, this way.”
Following the guidance of the maids, Elze entered the bedroom. It was the bedroom used by the previous Count and Countess, that is, her parents. Elze had never used this room, but from now on, this was going to be Elze’s bedroom.
The bedroom, which had a somewhat heavy atmosphere, had been completely transformed to suit the young newlyweds. There was still no one in the bedroom, which had a much fresher interior.
The door closed behind her, leaving only Elze in the bedroom. Elze looked around the bedroom. Then, seeing the red flower petals scattered on the bed, she let out a long moan.
“Umm...”
No matter what, rose petals on the bed didn't seem right. Elze imagined herself and Shan lying side by side on a bed full of rose petals for a moment, then quickly crawled onto the bed and swept the petals off with her hands.
Then, as she was looking around for anything suspicious, she noticed a small table next to the bed. On the table was a bottle of wine, two glasses, and some simple snacks. Elze quickly ran to the table after seeing the small cheeses, fruits, and crackers sitting cutely on the plate.
It's food!!
At dawn, she had a bowl of soup and after that, she only drank a little bit of beverage like she was dipping her beak. Elze sat down at the table and happily started eating the snacks. The moment the fruit juice spread in her mouth, she was so moved that she almost cried.
While she was at it, she also opened a bottle of wine. She uncorked it and poured some wine, and it smelled fragrant. When Elze smelled it, she thought it was a high-quality wine.
The feeling of being depressed and gloomy just a moment ago suddenly came flooding back to her. She didn't know it was because of the food in her mouth. Elze was eating, humming to herself when the bedroom door suddenly opened.
“Ouch!”
Elze, who had been eating until her mouth was about to burst, quickly swallowed the food in her mouth. Then she picked up the wine glass next to her, took a sip, and said calmly.
"... You came?"
Shan, who had come in after closing the bedroom door, looked at Elze with a dumbfounded expression. Elze smiled awkwardly and made an excuse.
“I was hungry so I was eating first. I didn’t eat anything all day today.”
Shan came walking slowly and sat down opposite Elze. He was dressed casually. A faint scent of perfume emanated from Shan as well. He too had clearly been thoroughly washed by the maids. Elze felt a strange sense of kinship.
He picked up the wine glass and offered it to Elze. Feeling sorry for having eaten all the food by herself, Elze poured him some wine without saying a word. Shan also filled Elze’s empty glass with wine.
He swirled his wineglass a couple of times, sniffed at the aroma, and sipped it slowly. She thought he was only good at wielding a sword on the battlefield, but he seemed very familiar with aristocratic culture.
The two of them just sipped wine for a while. Elze, who had been blinded by the food and now came to her senses, looked at Shan. It was starting to feel real that she was going to have to spend her first night together. She glanced at him from time to time, and their eyes met.
“Elzzenes.”
"... Yes?"
He rested his chin on one hand. He was lying leisurely on the table when he asked.
“Do you have any secrets you’re keeping from me?”
“...”
“Now that we’re a couple, there shouldn’t be any secrets between us.”
Shan put a noose around Elze. As he tightened it, Elze's chest tightened too. Elze put down the wine glass she was holding on the table. It was a way to counterattack with an attack. Elze asked him a question in return.
“Then you have nothing to hide from me?”
Shan chuckled at the abrupt question. Just as she was about to feel relieved by his laughter, the table overturned with a loud crash. Glasses and bottles of wine were scattered across the soft carpet, and Elze was lying on the floor.
“!!”
His hands tangled around her gown. Shan narrowed his eyes at the sight of her exposed white chest and muttered.
“...You really are a woman.”
Elze slapped his hand away and opened her gown.
“Then did you think I was a man?”
Her face burned with embarrassment. Elze tried to push Shan away, but his hand held down her wrist.
“...”
He pressed Elze down on the floor, unable to move, and looked down at her. His gaze licked over Elze. Elze felt like she had become prey to a beast. He whispered languidly.
“Where are you going?”
The purple eyes sank deeply.
“You have to have a first night, Erzenes.”
Elze even forgot to breathe. She couldn't believe what he said.
Are you really doing this? Really, on your first night?
This whole situation seemed like a joke, like a dream. Unlike the energetic start, Elze froze at Shan’s one word. Shan asked with a slight frown.
"First?"
It took a while before she understood what he was asking. Eventually, Elze couldn't stand it anymore and pushed him away with a scream. Shan laughed and pushed her.
Elze tried to get up, but she carefully grabbed the robe that was falling off her body and got up. Then she climbed onto the bed and quickly pulled the blanket over her head.
It's crazy, it's crazy.
Elze squeezed her eyes shut. Her face felt so hot that she thought it would burst. She was overcome with regret and reflection that she had taken marriage too lightly.
The bed felt like it was tilting to one side. Shan was sitting on the edge. Instead of just sitting down, he lay down next to Elze. Then he muttered, slightly lifting the end of the blanket.
“I guess I’ll be up all night.”
She didn't have the presence of mind to react to his words. Elze held on to the blanket as if it were her lifeline and wouldn't let go.
Shan stroked Elze's hair which was slightly sticking out from the blanket. The ivory hair was shining softly in the dark bedroom. It seemed like a simple and meaningless action, but Elze's whole body felt tingly. It felt like her hair had become an erogenous zone. Shan muttered to herself softly.
“When I see you...”
Shan's hand, which was touching her hair, gained strength.
“I'm angry.”
Elze flinched and shook her shoulders. There were many reasons why Elze would make Shan angry. But not Erzenes. Shan said to Elze, who could not ask why.
“I feel like you’re hiding something from me.”
“...”
“But on the other hand, I don’t know anything.”
Shan's hand slowly dug into the blanket. His hand grabbed Elze's round shoulder. He caressed her shoulder for a moment, then slowly entered the open gown.
“I still don’t fully understand my feelings...”
She felt Shan's chest behind her. Elze crouched down, but she couldn't stop Shan from digging in.
“But now one thing is certain.”
His hands were not hasty. They were slow and affectionate. The hands that slowly touched Elze were warm. He buried his lips in Elze’s nape. He whispered, kissing her deeply along the line where her neck and shoulder met.
“It is a fact that Erzenes of Targayel is mine as of today.”
Elze sucked in a breath. The place where he had kissed her felt hot and burning. Elze reflexively pushed him away and said.
“I am your wife, not your possession.”
Then Shan answered with a sly smile.
“Either way is not bad.”
He let go of Elze and stood up. He kissed her lightly and took off Elze’s gown. With a rustling sound, the gown was pulled back. Goosebumps appeared on her skin as it came in contact with the cold air, and Elze shivered briefly.
Shan threw Elze's gown carelessly onto the floor. Elze felt as if her last line of defense had been breached. Feeling disappointed, she pulled the blanket over her body to cover herself, and a smile appeared in Shan's eyes as he watched her.
He slowly took off his gown while staring at Elze. Through the flowing fabric, a firm and muscular body was revealed. It was a firm body without an ounce of fat. The sight of the dark light flickering over his bronze skin was embarrassingly explicit.
Elxe looked around anxiously, not knowing where to look. Shan slowly approached her side. She felt the bed tilting under his weight. She swallowed a deep breath in tension, and Shan’s hand wrapped around her calf. He slowly swept her leg up. A low voice rang through her ear.
“You have many scars on your body.”
The place he touched was so hot that it was unbearable. Elze tried to push his hand away, but there was no way to stop it. Instead, Shan intertwined his hand with hers. His long fingers searched and touched Elze’s hand.
“You have a lot of calluses on your hands as if you were holding a sword.”
He kissed Elxe, who was twisting her body slightly. Their soft lips touched, and his smooth tongue dug inside. He licked along the teeth thoroughly and gently rubbed the roof of her mouth.
As she shrugged her shoulders at the ticklish feeling, his tongue began to rub the roof of her mouth a little more persistently. When their lips separated after a long kiss, Elze let out the breath she had been holding back.
“...”
His exhaled breath scattered across her face. Their noses brushed each other's at a distance of less than half a hand's span.
The eyes that met her gaze were vivid purple. Eyes like violets that she had thought were pretty since she first saw him. The heat contained in the sparkling eyes was hot. As she looked at them, her head became increasingly hazy. It was as if she was being possessed. Shan’s fingertips touched Elze’s face. He gently held her cheek and whispered.
“They are completely different people, but how can they feel so similar?”
There must have been a lack of air in the room. Or maybe the wine was too strong and she was drunk without realizing it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been this hard to breathe.
Elze was panting heavily. Shan brought his lips to Elze’s relaxed eyes. He kissed her briefly and asked her a question she couldn’t answer.
“Do you happen to know the answer, Erzenes?”
Of course, Elze couldn't answer, and Shan didn't pursue it further. The conversation ended there. However, another conversation continued between the two. It was a deep and intimate conversation shared between their bodies.
"Ah..."
Elze moaned softly. A soft hand fell on her chest. He caressed it and gently pinched the nipple that had emerged at the end. Her eyes widened at the tingling sensation, but this time, instead of his fingers, he bit her with his mouth.
A tingling sensation spread from the tip of her chest. She felt her nipples rising upright. Unable to hold it back, she let out a small sound, and Shan tormented that place even more persistently. She licked the protruding protrusion with his tongue and then bit it with his teeth, causing her lower abdomen to tingle.
While Elze was distracted by her chest, Shan's other hand was groping her thigh. The hand that had been squeezing and tracing the tender flesh inside her thigh went to the deepest part. The finger lightly touched the gap between her legs. Elze, who was very tense, shook her waist.
“Ugh, uh... !”
His thumb rubbed the sensitive spot that was slightly swollen. At the same time, a long finger slowly dug inside. The feeling of the foreign substance was unfamiliar. But what was more bothersome was the wet sound coming from below. She could hear a squelching friction sound as the finger was pushed into the moist area.
Her face turned red from embarrassment and she felt like she was going to burst. Instinctively wanting to avoid it, Elze moved her butt back slightly. Then Shan, who had been stroking her chest with his lips, lifted her head and kissed her.
Elxe missed the moment to close her eyes. She ended up kissing him while facing him. Their faces were so close that her fluttering eyelashes seemed to brush against Shan’s face.
Shan looked straight at Elze and slowly moved his fingers. He rubbed the raised area and slowly dug inside. At first, his fingers gave a slight pain. However, as he caressed the sensitive area and felt inside, a strange sensation arose.
A moan kept leaking out between her lips. Even though she kept her mouth shut, the sound kept leaking out. Shan swept her tongue inside her mouth and swallowed the moans Elze let out.
She tried to ignore the tingling sensation, but at some point, the sensation began to increase rapidly. Something tingling gathered in her lower abdomen and her waist shook. Shan’s fingers dug in and rubbed a little more roughly.
Fearing the sensation that was about to come, she instinctively grabbed his forearm. But Shan didn’t stop his hand. Elze felt the muscles under her palm twitching, and she squeezed her eyes shut. A high-pitched sound erupted along with the sensation of her entire body being pulled apart.
“Ah, ahh... !”
She dug her nails into his forearm. He must have been in pain because she had dug them in with all her might, but Shan didn’t make a sound. As the body that had been convulsing slightly gradually calmed down, Shan groaned deeply. Something hot was rubbed against her thigh. Elze, who absentmindedly looked down, was shocked.
Surely... you’re not going to put that in me right now, are you?
Elze looked at Shan in disbelief, but his eyes were already open. His purple eyes were gleaming with dark energy. His eyes, furrowed deeply between his eyebrows and licking Elze, were not normal.
She was suddenly scared, but at the same time, it was strange. It was the first time she saw him, who was always easygoing, getting so anxious.
Shan took his penis and pushed it into the entrance rather hastily. The wet penis entered without difficulty.
“Ugh...!”
A tingling sensation ran down her spine. Elze's mouth fell open because it was hot and thick. Shan pushed in all the way, not even giving Elze time to accept it.
“!!”
She couldn't even make a sound, and her body trembled. Maybe it was because of the sensation of his throbbing penis, but her insides felt hot as if they were on fire. A belated moan dripped from her mouth.
The tense body naturally gained strength. Shan let out a low growl as her lower body tightened. His hands gripped her buttocks tightly. She could feel the momentum of his violent rampage. Elze took a deep breath and called out to him urgently.
“...Haauk, Shan!”
Shan's body stopped. Elze tried to catch her breath and whispered to him.
“Shan, wait a minute, slow down a little...”
Shan seemed to have finally come to his senses. He sighed, his face distorted.
“Erzenes...”
Shan, who called Elze's name as if lamenting, muttered softly with a troubled expression on his face.
“I’m trying to be gentle... but it’s difficult.”
Shan looked confused for some reason. It seemed like he was not used to being in a situation where he couldn't control himself. Elze swallowed hard as she watched Shan. She had somehow managed to stop him, but the more she stayed still, the more she felt strange. She couldn't believe that he had put something like a weapon inside.
Shan was looking down at Elze with his eyes slightly lowered. His hand was gently placed on Elze’s stomach. With a little force, the inside and genitals were rubbed. The feeling of being filled tightly inside was so obvious that Elze tightly gripped the hem of the sheet with her hand.
Shan's body slowly tilted. Their lower abdomens were pressed together, and his face was close. The flowing hair tickled her skin. Shan pulled Elze's hand and made her hold the back of his neck.
The penis that had been deeply embedded slowly pushed back. Elze felt goosebumps at the feeling of the flesh inside being pushed out. Shan bit the tip of her ear. He slid his tongue along her earlobe and licked the inside of her ear.
A sticky sound rang in her ears. She felt like his tongue was digging in, containing her from top to bottom. Elze's face turned red again. Shan spoke to Elze, who couldn't say anything out of embarrassment and raised his head.
“Tell me how it feels, Erzenes.”
His demands were persistent. He touched here and there, asked how things were here, and watched Elze’s reactions. He dug through her thoroughly, not missing even the slightest moan. Elze felt like her insides were being stripped bare in front of him. In the end, she could only cover her face with her hands and mumble.
“Ugh... Stop asking, things like that... ahh!”
Shan dug deep inside. When Elze opened her eyes wide and trembled, Shan teased that place a little more. It was like this when she just reacted. Her eyes turned red from the dizzying pleasure. Shan smiled faintly and said.
“Because I want to make you feel good.”
He took Elze's hand away from her face. Then he put her finger in his mouth, licked it diligently, and whispered.
“I hope we can have fun together.”
Shan's face as he uttered those words was so hideous that Elze froze, unable to move. He bit the tip of Elze's finger and moved his hips again.
From then on, Shan led Elze skillfully, and Elze was helplessly dragged by him. Elze melted into him in an instant, like ice in boiling water. And when Elze got a little used to the pleasure, Shan stopped lenient from then on.
“Hah!!”
He thrust his penis deep inside her. She gasped and screamed as she felt it reach all the way inside her. Her eyes became dizzy and hot heat rose up. As her legs, which were in the air, swayed without a place to go, Shan wrapped her legs around his waist.
Something hard gently cut into her insides and then suddenly pushed out. The burning pleasure gradually burned her body. A few light orgasms swept over her entire body. Elze grabbed the sheets and tore them apart, then scratched Shan’s back with her nails.
At some point, when she came to her senses, Elze realized that she was screaming like a bird. But she couldn't hold back her moans. She was suddenly scared as she lost control of her body. She felt like things would get really weird if she kept going like this. Elze spoke with a trembling voice as if sobbing.
“Shan, huh, wait, slow down...!”
But Shan didn't slow down. Instead, he dug deeper and harder. Elze was cornered by him, and there was nowhere to run. She couldn't move and had to feel every last bit of pleasure that was being given. The sensations that had been slowly gathering suddenly became hard. With a sharp pleasure that felt like stabbing her lower abdomen, Elze reached her climax.
"Ah...!"
Elze shrank back and hugged Shan. He groaned in a scratchy low voice, then bit Elze’s nape. Liquid spurted into her stomach. The feeling of her insides getting wet engulfed her body like an afterglow. Elze couldn’t shake off the afterglow for a long time.
After barely calming down and looking at Shan, he kissed her without saying a word. Elze accepted his kiss in a state of exhaustion. It was a soft and affectionate kiss. Because she liked the tickling feeling, Elze closed her eyes and kissed him languidly.
It was a crazy first night. She don't know for sure, but Shan seemed to have a good relationship with her. And Elze... didn't hate it either.
Shan Cirxus, the hero of the Baluar, is now the man who will become Count of Targayel.
As a hero who ended the Hundred Years' War, he had it all - from appearance to fame, wealth, and position - but Shan did not have everything from the beginning.
Shan's family, the Cirxus family, was a family that was too honorable to be called noble. They only held the titles of Viscount and Baron. By Shan's time, they had become a family that was not even as wealthy or as honorable as commoners.
Shan's mother died while giving birth to him. Not long after, his father also died in an accident. Left alone, Shan wandered among his relatives, but they all just threw stones at him, calling him the devil who ate his parents.
The world was cruel to young Shan. Everything demanded a price, and no good deed was done without reason. Shan had to realize the logic of the power that moved the world at a young age.
Shan thought this was the end of hell. But soon he had to realize that he could fall even deeper.
"Oh my, you're so cute. Are you Shan?"
It was the home of a distant relative. It was a family of merchants who had a large business, but the husband was often away from home because he was doing business overseas. The wife often spent time alone.
One day, she called Shan and asked him to sleep with her. She was bigger than Shan and kissed Shan, muttering in a state of ecstasy.
"You have very pretty purple eyes..."
Of course, Shan pushed her away. Shan was so scared that he couldn't even scream properly. He tried to run away, but the door was locked tightly.
She laughed out loud behind Shan, who was pounding desperately on the locked door and tugging at the doorknob.
"What are you going to do by running away from here? You have nowhere to go."
Shan pleaded with her.
"Please save me, ma'am... I was wrong, please let me go..."
But the child's desperate plea had no power. Her fingers brushed Shan's pleading lips.
“I’m getting married...”
Looking out the window, Elze muttered in vain. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t believe it. The garden was bustling with servants from the imperial family. They were busily setting up tables, talking among themselves, and hanging transparent veils over trees.
The pure white virgin road running through the middle of the garden particularly caught Elze's eye. As Elze was staring blankly at it, a knock came and a voice called her.
"Miss."
It was the sound that signaled the end of the short break. Elze was momentarily frustrated by the sound that was scarier than the call of the grim reaper, but she soon straightened her face and told them to come in.
“Come in.”
As soon as Elze gave permission, the maids came in and surrounded her as if they were surrounding her. And Elze was held captive by them and had to start dressing up again. The dressing up that started with a bath at dawn showed no sign of ending. Elze, who had eaten only a bowl of soup all day, muttered helplessly.
"Hungry..."
But Elze's pitiful appeal fell on deaf ears. Rosalie, the chief maid who had come out of the palace, spoke firmly with a stern expression.
“No, you can’t. Instead, I’ll give you something to drink.”
“...”
And Elze had to go through hell again.
“Ugj!!”
She didn't think it would hurt this much even if she got stabbed by a knife. Tears welled up in her eyes as the corset straps tightened without mercy. Of course, she couldn't cry as she pleased.
“My makeup is smudging.”
Elze had to hold back the tears that were rising. Rumors of corsets crushing her ribs and internal organs kept coming to her mind.
After tightening her corset to the point of suffocation, she put on her knickers and petticoat and then put on a crinoline to hold up her dress. The crinoline, made of strong whalebone to hold up the heavy hem of her dress, was quite heavy on its own. Elze felt like she was carrying a basket upside down.
Then finally the wedding dress. They spread the bottom of the dress wide with a long stick, then carefully lowered it down so that it covered Elze's body. They smoothed out the wrinkles and buttoned up the densely packed buttons on the back one by one.
The maids, who had been discussing it among themselves, neatly tied up Elze's ivory hair. They placed a tiara studded with crystals on her head and a veil of delicately embroidered lace hanging down.
Just when she thought she would die before the wedding, the makeup was finished. The maid showed Elze the full-length mirror with a satisfied look on her face.
“If anything is lacking or you are not satisfied with anything, please tell me without holding back.”
Elze blinked. The girl in the mirror was unfamiliar. The girl in the pure white dress, perfectly dressed, did not seem like Elze. She looked like a Princess from a fairy tale. But Elze did not have time to properly appreciate her own appearance.
The maid held Elze and repeated the things she had to pay attention to during the wedding. Elze, who had already memorized everything, listened to what she said with one ear and looked out the window. Through the window, she could see the guests entering one by one. Looking at the people filling the Targayel garden, she was already dizzy.
After finishing her make-up, Elze took a short rest and then went down to the garden. While waiting inside the white tent, she heard loud music and voices outside.
Just a moment ago, she was so out of it that she didn't know what was going on, but suddenly the wedding started to feel real. Elze, who had been running around a lot even on the battlefield, felt her body tremble with tension.
At some point, the noise subsided. Along with it, the sound of the groom entering could be heard, and the officiant's voice could be heard.
While Elze was absentmindedly listening to what the master was saying, the maids helped Elze up. They said as they busily straightened her crumpled dress.
“You must leave now.”
A veil was placed over Elze's face. The girls, led by Elze, who was embarrassed by her vision being obstructed, headed towards the Virgin Road.
The guests were packed on both sides of the Virgin Road, and the knights were standing here and there in case of an emergency. When Elze appeared, everyone clapped their hands until their palms broke and cheered. The applause was so loud that it hurt her ears.
Most of those cheering were people Elze did not know. They had gathered not to celebrate Elze's marriage, but to celebrate Shan's rise to power as Count Targayel.
Elze stood at the end of the virgin road amidst the packed guests. Astin, who had been waiting nearby, approached Elze and stood next to her. Astin, wearing a bow tie and a suit, was faintly visible through the veil. Astin took off his large glasses and neatly combed his hair, and Elze relaxed a little.
“Please escort me.”
Astin took Elze's hand at the whisper of the maid assisting her. Astin, whose eyes were already red from the brink of tears, still escorted Elze in a dignified manner.
At the end of the virgin road where they walked hand in hand, there was Shan. It was inexplicable how each step they took felt so big. Elze stopped in front of Shan, and Astin handed Elze’s hand to Shan.
“...”
Shan's hand wrapped around Elze's. He squeezed her hand tightly once and then let go. With the help of the maids, Elze sat down next to Shan, facing him.
Shan lifted Elze's veil. Her vision, which had been cloudy until then, became clear for the first time. Elze opened her eyes wide as she saw Shan standing right in front of her.
Shan, with his hair neatly combed back and dressed in a smoky suit, looked more noble and elegant than anyone else. His firm body and sparkling purple eyes. The moment she met his eyes, her heart pounded and her face heated up.
Elze was still so out of it that she began to reflect on herself, wondering if she had been weak to such a handsome man.
She couldn't hear a single word the priest was saying. She just stood there, not knowing what to do, when Shan grabbed Elze's hand. Then he quickly took off her glove and put a silver ring on her fourth finger. Elze finally came to her senses at the feeling of the cool metal.
At that moment, the voice of the priest, which she had never heard before, was heard clearly.
“...a kiss of oath.”
With those words, Shan's lips came closer. Elze, who had been preoccupied with his face, quickly closed her eyes in bewilderment at the approaching lips. Her heart, which had been pounding just a moment ago, suddenly began to beat faster. Elze was not ready to kiss Shan.
It was just a ceremonial kiss, according to the order of the meal... Elze tried to calm her mind by thinking that way. Then she waited for Shan’s lips to approach.
But the moment their lips touched, Elze had to open her eyes wide again. She thought they would just lightly touch lips and end it. But that was just Elze’s thought.
“Ugh...!”
He parted her lips and delved into her tongue. As Elze, startled by the somewhat rough kiss, swayed, his hands held her waist tightly. With a sloshing sound, his tongue swirled around her mouth. The guests cheered and jeered at the deep kiss.
Shan didn't close his eyes. He was looking straight at Elze. Elze trembled without realizing it. It felt like her body was being pierced by his purple gaze. Her mind became hazy. His tongue licked Elze's lips. Slowly, their lips parted, and Shan let out a hot breath. The moment the passionate kiss ended, Elze let out a gasp of breath she had been holding. The guests shouted loudly.
“May God bless you on your new journey!”
Flower petals fell from all directions, bells rang, and the guests all stood up and cheered. Elze looked at Shan amidst the fluttering flower petals.
“...”
He smiled faintly without saying a word. The faint excitement from the kiss that had just passed remained in his eyes. Shan quickly turned his gaze away from Elze and nodded briefly at the guests. Elze followed suit and bowed slightly.
But unlike her body which moved mechanically, her mind was complicated with thoughts about the rough kiss.
The relationship between Shan and Elze was nothing more than a political marriage, nothing more, nothing less. To be more precise, both Elze and Shan were bad luck to each other, so they were worse than strangers.
But what was that passionate kiss?
There was a sticky emotion to his kiss, which was clearly aimed at Elze and no one else.
There was no reason for him to have such feelings for 'Erzenes'. Really, there was not even a bit...
***
The wedding was over, but the real festivities were just beginning.
In keeping with the tradition of the Baluar, the guests feasted and drank in the Targayel mansion for the night after the wedding. While the guests merrily reveled through the night, the bride and groom prepared for their first night together.
“Madam, please stand up.”
"Ah..."
The title had already changed. Elze, who had become a madam from a young lady, slowly got up from the bathtub. With a sloshing sound, the bath water mixed with rose petals fell. The maids wiped Elze’s body with a towel and applied perfume. They also rounded the tips of her nails and thoroughly checked the pubic area between her legs.
“I will dress you.”
The clothes the maids made her wear were light and see-through gowns. It seemed like they would be easy to take off, but Elze wore them obediently.
Before taking a bath, Rosalie, the head maid, told Elze a story while taking off her dress. Thanks to her stories, Elze realized how lucky she was.
Marriages between noble families were mostly political marriages. As such, the marriage partners would often exchange portraits and only see each other properly at the wedding hall. That is why the inspection before the first night was said to be very strict.
Not only did they examine the appearance of the genitals, they even checked for the presence of the hymen. They even set up a curtain during the first night and checked to see if things were going well. And all the details were reported directly to each family.
Fortunately, there was no one for Elze or Shan to report to. The Targayel House only had Elze and Astin, and the Cirxus House had been completely wiped out, so Shan had no family either.
Even though she was born and raised in the Baluar Empire, Elze still had memories of living in modern-day Korea. If she had really been checked all over her body and had to be watched until the first night... The mere thought was horrifying. It was something Elze absolutely could not accept.
“Madam, this way.”
Following the guidance of the maids, Elze entered the bedroom. It was the bedroom used by the previous Count and Countess, that is, her parents. Elze had never used this room, but from now on, this was going to be Elze’s bedroom.
The bedroom, which had a somewhat heavy atmosphere, had been completely transformed to suit the young newlyweds. There was still no one in the bedroom, which had a much fresher interior.
The door closed behind her, leaving only Elze in the bedroom. Elze looked around the bedroom. Then, seeing the red flower petals scattered on the bed, she let out a long moan.
“Umm...”
No matter what, rose petals on the bed didn't seem right. Elze imagined herself and Shan lying side by side on a bed full of rose petals for a moment, then quickly crawled onto the bed and swept the petals off with her hands.
Then, as she was looking around for anything suspicious, she noticed a small table next to the bed. On the table was a bottle of wine, two glasses, and some simple snacks. Elze quickly ran to the table after seeing the small cheeses, fruits, and crackers sitting cutely on the plate.
It's food!!
At dawn, she had a bowl of soup and after that, she only drank a little bit of beverage like she was dipping her beak. Elze sat down at the table and happily started eating the snacks. The moment the fruit juice spread in her mouth, she was so moved that she almost cried.
While she was at it, she also opened a bottle of wine. She uncorked it and poured some wine, and it smelled fragrant. When Elze smelled it, she thought it was a high-quality wine.
The feeling of being depressed and gloomy just a moment ago suddenly came flooding back to her. She didn't know it was because of the food in her mouth. Elze was eating, humming to herself when the bedroom door suddenly opened.
“Ouch!”
Elze, who had been eating until her mouth was about to burst, quickly swallowed the food in her mouth. Then she picked up the wine glass next to her, took a sip, and said calmly.
"... You came?"
Shan, who had come in after closing the bedroom door, looked at Elze with a dumbfounded expression. Elze smiled awkwardly and made an excuse.
“I was hungry so I was eating first. I didn’t eat anything all day today.”
Shan came walking slowly and sat down opposite Elze. He was dressed casually. A faint scent of perfume emanated from Shan as well. He too had clearly been thoroughly washed by the maids. Elze felt a strange sense of kinship.
He picked up the wine glass and offered it to Elze. Feeling sorry for having eaten all the food by herself, Elze poured him some wine without saying a word. Shan also filled Elze’s empty glass with wine.
He swirled his wineglass a couple of times, sniffed at the aroma, and sipped it slowly. She thought he was only good at wielding a sword on the battlefield, but he seemed very familiar with aristocratic culture.
The two of them just sipped wine for a while. Elze, who had been blinded by the food and now came to her senses, looked at Shan. It was starting to feel real that she was going to have to spend her first night together. She glanced at him from time to time, and their eyes met.
“Elzzenes.”
"... Yes?"
He rested his chin on one hand. He was lying leisurely on the table when he asked.
“Do you have any secrets you’re keeping from me?”
“...”
“Now that we’re a couple, there shouldn’t be any secrets between us.”
Shan put a noose around Elze. As he tightened it, Elze's chest tightened too. Elze put down the wine glass she was holding on the table. It was a way to counterattack with an attack. Elze asked him a question in return.
“Then you have nothing to hide from me?”
Shan chuckled at the abrupt question. Just as she was about to feel relieved by his laughter, the table overturned with a loud crash. Glasses and bottles of wine were scattered across the soft carpet, and Elze was lying on the floor.
“!!”
His hands tangled around her gown. Shan narrowed his eyes at the sight of her exposed white chest and muttered.
“...You really are a woman.”
Elze slapped his hand away and opened her gown.
“Then did you think I was a man?”
Her face burned with embarrassment. Elze tried to push Shan away, but his hand held down her wrist.
“...”
He pressed Elze down on the floor, unable to move, and looked down at her. His gaze licked over Elze. Elze felt like she had become prey to a beast. He whispered languidly.
“Where are you going?”
The purple eyes sank deeply.
“You have to have a first night, Erzenes.”
Elze even forgot to breathe. She couldn't believe what he said.
Are you really doing this? Really, on your first night?
This whole situation seemed like a joke, like a dream. Unlike the energetic start, Elze froze at Shan’s one word. Shan asked with a slight frown.
"First?"
It took a while before she understood what he was asking. Eventually, Elze couldn't stand it anymore and pushed him away with a scream. Shan laughed and pushed her.
Elze tried to get up, but she carefully grabbed the robe that was falling off her body and got up. Then she climbed onto the bed and quickly pulled the blanket over her head.
It's crazy, it's crazy.
Elze squeezed her eyes shut. Her face felt so hot that she thought it would burst. She was overcome with regret and reflection that she had taken marriage too lightly.
The bed felt like it was tilting to one side. Shan was sitting on the edge. Instead of just sitting down, he lay down next to Elze. Then he muttered, slightly lifting the end of the blanket.
“I guess I’ll be up all night.”
She didn't have the presence of mind to react to his words. Elze held on to the blanket as if it were her lifeline and wouldn't let go.
Shan stroked Elze's hair which was slightly sticking out from the blanket. The ivory hair was shining softly in the dark bedroom. It seemed like a simple and meaningless action, but Elze's whole body felt tingly. It felt like her hair had become an erogenous zone. Shan muttered to herself softly.
“When I see you...”
Shan's hand, which was touching her hair, gained strength.
“I'm angry.”
Elze flinched and shook her shoulders. There were many reasons why Elze would make Shan angry. But not Erzenes. Shan said to Elze, who could not ask why.
“I feel like you’re hiding something from me.”
“...”
“But on the other hand, I don’t know anything.”
Shan's hand slowly dug into the blanket. His hand grabbed Elze's round shoulder. He caressed her shoulder for a moment, then slowly entered the open gown.
“I still don’t fully understand my feelings...”
She felt Shan's chest behind her. Elze crouched down, but she couldn't stop Shan from digging in.
“But now one thing is certain.”
His hands were not hasty. They were slow and affectionate. The hands that slowly touched Elze were warm. He buried his lips in Elze’s nape. He whispered, kissing her deeply along the line where her neck and shoulder met.
“It is a fact that Erzenes of Targayel is mine as of today.”
Elze sucked in a breath. The place where he had kissed her felt hot and burning. Elze reflexively pushed him away and said.
“I am your wife, not your possession.”
Then Shan answered with a sly smile.
“Either way is not bad.”
He let go of Elze and stood up. He kissed her lightly and took off Elze’s gown. With a rustling sound, the gown was pulled back. Goosebumps appeared on her skin as it came in contact with the cold air, and Elze shivered briefly.
Shan threw Elze's gown carelessly onto the floor. Elze felt as if her last line of defense had been breached. Feeling disappointed, she pulled the blanket over her body to cover herself, and a smile appeared in Shan's eyes as he watched her.
He slowly took off his gown while staring at Elze. Through the flowing fabric, a firm and muscular body was revealed. It was a firm body without an ounce of fat. The sight of the dark light flickering over his bronze skin was embarrassingly explicit.
Elxe looked around anxiously, not knowing where to look. Shan slowly approached her side. She felt the bed tilting under his weight. She swallowed a deep breath in tension, and Shan’s hand wrapped around her calf. He slowly swept her leg up. A low voice rang through her ear.
“You have many scars on your body.”
The place he touched was so hot that it was unbearable. Elze tried to push his hand away, but there was no way to stop it. Instead, Shan intertwined his hand with hers. His long fingers searched and touched Elze’s hand.
“You have a lot of calluses on your hands as if you were holding a sword.”
He kissed Elxe, who was twisting her body slightly. Their soft lips touched, and his smooth tongue dug inside. He licked along the teeth thoroughly and gently rubbed the roof of her mouth.
As she shrugged her shoulders at the ticklish feeling, his tongue began to rub the roof of her mouth a little more persistently. When their lips separated after a long kiss, Elze let out the breath she had been holding back.
“...”
His exhaled breath scattered across her face. Their noses brushed each other's at a distance of less than half a hand's span.
The eyes that met her gaze were vivid purple. Eyes like violets that she had thought were pretty since she first saw him. The heat contained in the sparkling eyes was hot. As she looked at them, her head became increasingly hazy. It was as if she was being possessed. Shan’s fingertips touched Elze’s face. He gently held her cheek and whispered.
“They are completely different people, but how can they feel so similar?”
There must have been a lack of air in the room. Or maybe the wine was too strong and she was drunk without realizing it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been this hard to breathe.
Elze was panting heavily. Shan brought his lips to Elze’s relaxed eyes. He kissed her briefly and asked her a question she couldn’t answer.
“Do you happen to know the answer, Erzenes?”
Of course, Elze couldn't answer, and Shan didn't pursue it further. The conversation ended there. However, another conversation continued between the two. It was a deep and intimate conversation shared between their bodies.
"Ah..."
Elze moaned softly. A soft hand fell on her chest. He caressed it and gently pinched the nipple that had emerged at the end. Her eyes widened at the tingling sensation, but this time, instead of his fingers, he bit her with his mouth.
A tingling sensation spread from the tip of her chest. She felt her nipples rising upright. Unable to hold it back, she let out a small sound, and Shan tormented that place even more persistently. She licked the protruding protrusion with his tongue and then bit it with his teeth, causing her lower abdomen to tingle.
While Elze was distracted by her chest, Shan's other hand was groping her thigh. The hand that had been squeezing and tracing the tender flesh inside her thigh went to the deepest part. The finger lightly touched the gap between her legs. Elze, who was very tense, shook her waist.
“Ugh, uh... !”
His thumb rubbed the sensitive spot that was slightly swollen. At the same time, a long finger slowly dug inside. The feeling of the foreign substance was unfamiliar. But what was more bothersome was the wet sound coming from below. She could hear a squelching friction sound as the finger was pushed into the moist area.
Her face turned red from embarrassment and she felt like she was going to burst. Instinctively wanting to avoid it, Elze moved her butt back slightly. Then Shan, who had been stroking her chest with his lips, lifted her head and kissed her.
Elxe missed the moment to close her eyes. She ended up kissing him while facing him. Their faces were so close that her fluttering eyelashes seemed to brush against Shan’s face.
Shan looked straight at Elze and slowly moved his fingers. He rubbed the raised area and slowly dug inside. At first, his fingers gave a slight pain. However, as he caressed the sensitive area and felt inside, a strange sensation arose.
A moan kept leaking out between her lips. Even though she kept her mouth shut, the sound kept leaking out. Shan swept her tongue inside her mouth and swallowed the moans Elze let out.
She tried to ignore the tingling sensation, but at some point, the sensation began to increase rapidly. Something tingling gathered in her lower abdomen and her waist shook. Shan’s fingers dug in and rubbed a little more roughly.
Fearing the sensation that was about to come, she instinctively grabbed his forearm. But Shan didn’t stop his hand. Elze felt the muscles under her palm twitching, and she squeezed her eyes shut. A high-pitched sound erupted along with the sensation of her entire body being pulled apart.
“Ah, ahh... !”
She dug her nails into his forearm. He must have been in pain because she had dug them in with all her might, but Shan didn’t make a sound. As the body that had been convulsing slightly gradually calmed down, Shan groaned deeply. Something hot was rubbed against her thigh. Elze, who absentmindedly looked down, was shocked.
Surely... you’re not going to put that in me right now, are you?
Elze looked at Shan in disbelief, but his eyes were already open. His purple eyes were gleaming with dark energy. His eyes, furrowed deeply between his eyebrows and licking Elze, were not normal.
She was suddenly scared, but at the same time, it was strange. It was the first time she saw him, who was always easygoing, getting so anxious.
Shan took his penis and pushed it into the entrance rather hastily. The wet penis entered without difficulty.
“Ugh...!”
A tingling sensation ran down her spine. Elze's mouth fell open because it was hot and thick. Shan pushed in all the way, not even giving Elze time to accept it.
“!!”
She couldn't even make a sound, and her body trembled. Maybe it was because of the sensation of his throbbing penis, but her insides felt hot as if they were on fire. A belated moan dripped from her mouth.
The tense body naturally gained strength. Shan let out a low growl as her lower body tightened. His hands gripped her buttocks tightly. She could feel the momentum of his violent rampage. Elze took a deep breath and called out to him urgently.
“...Haauk, Shan!”
Shan's body stopped. Elze tried to catch her breath and whispered to him.
“Shan, wait a minute, slow down a little...”
Shan seemed to have finally come to his senses. He sighed, his face distorted.
“Erzenes...”
Shan, who called Elze's name as if lamenting, muttered softly with a troubled expression on his face.
“I’m trying to be gentle... but it’s difficult.”
Shan looked confused for some reason. It seemed like he was not used to being in a situation where he couldn't control himself. Elze swallowed hard as she watched Shan. She had somehow managed to stop him, but the more she stayed still, the more she felt strange. She couldn't believe that he had put something like a weapon inside.
Shan was looking down at Elze with his eyes slightly lowered. His hand was gently placed on Elze’s stomach. With a little force, the inside and genitals were rubbed. The feeling of being filled tightly inside was so obvious that Elze tightly gripped the hem of the sheet with her hand.
Shan's body slowly tilted. Their lower abdomens were pressed together, and his face was close. The flowing hair tickled her skin. Shan pulled Elze's hand and made her hold the back of his neck.
The penis that had been deeply embedded slowly pushed back. Elze felt goosebumps at the feeling of the flesh inside being pushed out. Shan bit the tip of her ear. He slid his tongue along her earlobe and licked the inside of her ear.
A sticky sound rang in her ears. She felt like his tongue was digging in, containing her from top to bottom. Elze's face turned red again. Shan spoke to Elze, who couldn't say anything out of embarrassment and raised his head.
“Tell me how it feels, Erzenes.”
His demands were persistent. He touched here and there, asked how things were here, and watched Elze’s reactions. He dug through her thoroughly, not missing even the slightest moan. Elze felt like her insides were being stripped bare in front of him. In the end, she could only cover her face with her hands and mumble.
“Ugh... Stop asking, things like that... ahh!”
Shan dug deep inside. When Elze opened her eyes wide and trembled, Shan teased that place a little more. It was like this when she just reacted. Her eyes turned red from the dizzying pleasure. Shan smiled faintly and said.
“Because I want to make you feel good.”
He took Elze's hand away from her face. Then he put her finger in his mouth, licked it diligently, and whispered.
“I hope we can have fun together.”
Shan's face as he uttered those words was so hideous that Elze froze, unable to move. He bit the tip of Elze's finger and moved his hips again.
From then on, Shan led Elze skillfully, and Elze was helplessly dragged by him. Elze melted into him in an instant, like ice in boiling water. And when Elze got a little used to the pleasure, Shan stopped lenient from then on.
“Hah!!”
He thrust his penis deep inside her. She gasped and screamed as she felt it reach all the way inside her. Her eyes became dizzy and hot heat rose up. As her legs, which were in the air, swayed without a place to go, Shan wrapped her legs around his waist.
Something hard gently cut into her insides and then suddenly pushed out. The burning pleasure gradually burned her body. A few light orgasms swept over her entire body. Elze grabbed the sheets and tore them apart, then scratched Shan’s back with her nails.
At some point, when she came to her senses, Elze realized that she was screaming like a bird. But she couldn't hold back her moans. She was suddenly scared as she lost control of her body. She felt like things would get really weird if she kept going like this. Elze spoke with a trembling voice as if sobbing.
“Shan, huh, wait, slow down...!”
But Shan didn't slow down. Instead, he dug deeper and harder. Elze was cornered by him, and there was nowhere to run. She couldn't move and had to feel every last bit of pleasure that was being given. The sensations that had been slowly gathering suddenly became hard. With a sharp pleasure that felt like stabbing her lower abdomen, Elze reached her climax.
"Ah...!"
Elze shrank back and hugged Shan. He groaned in a scratchy low voice, then bit Elze’s nape. Liquid spurted into her stomach. The feeling of her insides getting wet engulfed her body like an afterglow. Elze couldn’t shake off the afterglow for a long time.
After barely calming down and looking at Shan, he kissed her without saying a word. Elze accepted his kiss in a state of exhaustion. It was a soft and affectionate kiss. Because she liked the tickling feeling, Elze closed her eyes and kissed him languidly.
It was a crazy first night. She don't know for sure, but Shan seemed to have a good relationship with her. And Elze... didn't hate it either.
***
Shan Cirxus, the hero of the Baluar, is now the man who will become Count of Targayel.
As a hero who ended the Hundred Years' War, he had it all - from appearance to fame, wealth, and position - but Shan did not have everything from the beginning.
Shan's family, the Cirxus family, was a family that was too honorable to be called noble. They only held the titles of Viscount and Baron. By Shan's time, they had become a family that was not even as wealthy or as honorable as commoners.
Shan's mother died while giving birth to him. Not long after, his father also died in an accident. Left alone, Shan wandered among his relatives, but they all just threw stones at him, calling him the devil who ate his parents.
The world was cruel to young Shan. Everything demanded a price, and no good deed was done without reason. Shan had to realize the logic of the power that moved the world at a young age.
Shan thought this was the end of hell. But soon he had to realize that he could fall even deeper.
"Oh my, you're so cute. Are you Shan?"
It was the home of a distant relative. It was a family of merchants who had a large business, but the husband was often away from home because he was doing business overseas. The wife often spent time alone.
One day, she called Shan and asked him to sleep with her. She was bigger than Shan and kissed Shan, muttering in a state of ecstasy.
"You have very pretty purple eyes..."
Of course, Shan pushed her away. Shan was so scared that he couldn't even scream properly. He tried to run away, but the door was locked tightly.
She laughed out loud behind Shan, who was pounding desperately on the locked door and tugging at the doorknob.
"What are you going to do by running away from here? You have nowhere to go."
Shan pleaded with her.
"Please save me, ma'am... I was wrong, please let me go..."
But the child's desperate plea had no power. Her fingers brushed Shan's pleading lips.
"That's what kids like you usually do."
She said, her eyes sparkling with lust.
"If you want to eat even a piece of bread... take it off."
When Shan resisted to the end, she forcibly took off Shan's pants. Then, she craved his young body and satisfied her greed. Shan could not escape.
That was rape.
From that day on, Shan was forced to have sex with her. It was the beginning of a hellish time. But Shan was not on her side anywhere.
The maids watched as Shan was sexually abused, but they turned a blind eye to it. When she begged for help, they only pushed Shan back to the room.
After a while, the husband came home and found out about the atrocities committed by his wife. As expected, Shan was beaten and kicked out. Shan was not given a chance to explain himself.
Shan went to another relative's house. But the same thing happened again and again. No matter which house Shan went to, the women would flock to Shan like moths to a light.
Someone's wife, someone's daughter, someone's sister... They all said that Shan had seduced them. And they went crazy over Shan.
"Where are you going? Don't leave my side. You tempted me!"
"Why won't you tell me you love me! Why!!"
"I can't live without you. Run away with me."
"If you leave me, you will die...!"
It was always Shan's fault in the end. Shan was always blamed and kicked out.
He thinks it was around that time that Shan became crooked. The moment he relaxed and thought that it didn't matter anymore, everything became easy.
From then on, Shan actively accepted the women who flirted with him. Now, they could no longer harass Shan.
Shan trampled on the lust and obsession they poured out as they clung to him. He dominated them and hurt them in the name of love.
The moment he treated women like toys, the anger that had no place to go seemed to subside for a moment.
But in the end, it was only a moment. The emptiness and anger that filled his heart did not disappear. Rather, it only grew bigger.
During the days of going from one woman's house to another, Shan saw a recruitment poster stuck on a wall on the street. He thought it was a strange poster trying to stimulate patriotism, but he couldn't take his eyes off the poster for a long time.
The next day, Shan volunteered for the war. He had no fear of losing his life. Death had long since lost its meaning to him.
He didn't want to live like this anymore. To calm the anger boiling inside him, Shan headed to the battlefield.
Shan, who fought in the Baluar Empire army, was able to join as a knight. Although he was considered a knight because he was a nobleman, his treatment was worse than that of a mercenary. Shan’s role was to be a brave arrow catcher who stood at the forefront of the battlefield and died bravely without receiving any special compensation.
But Shan was not ordinary. And the battlefield was a place where Shan could fully display his talents. Shan displayed incredible strength, surprising even himself.
Shan, who became a knight, was an awl in the pocket. He stood out so much that he couldn't hide it, and Shan didn't hide himself either.
However, as Shan's ability was recognized, the number of people who were jealous of him also increased. Shan's personality also played a part in this. Shan, who did not let anyone else be above him, did not know how to bend. Many of his superiors fell down because of Shan's stiff attitude, but Shan remained confident.
The Battle of Kirkla was a costly one for him. Shan was attacked by his fellow knights during his retreat and was abandoned.
Shan should have died that day, but he survived.
"Get your mind straight from now on. I will save you."
That was his first meeting with Elze.
"Why...you saved me."
"Just like that."
Elze rescued Shan and then suddenly left without asking for anything in return. Shan was able to survive thanks to Elze and returned to the camp three days later.
From then on, Shan became more and more vicious on the battlefield. However, he did not simply swing his sword. While achieving merits on the battlefield, he also gathered his own forces.
On the battlefield, people are instinctively drawn to the strong. Many had been wanting to follow Shan. Shan no longer ignored them and took them under his command.
He also deliberately approached Crown Prince Raymond. The two of them needed each other. He used Shan, and Shan used him.
Shan had grown old enough that no one could mess with him. But even amid his hectic days, there was one thought that kept lingering in Shan's mind.
Why did you save me?
Elze risked his own life to save Shan. He didn't expect anything in return, and she didn't look particularly sympathetic.
Indifferently as if it were a given... he saved Shan.
That was a big question, and Shan was obsessed with it for a long time. Shan had his followers investigate Elze's movements. Although he never showed himself, he was like a stalker, watching his every move and receiving reports.
Shan himself couldn't figure out why he was doing this.
She said, her eyes sparkling with lust.
"If you want to eat even a piece of bread... take it off."
When Shan resisted to the end, she forcibly took off Shan's pants. Then, she craved his young body and satisfied her greed. Shan could not escape.
That was rape.
From that day on, Shan was forced to have sex with her. It was the beginning of a hellish time. But Shan was not on her side anywhere.
The maids watched as Shan was sexually abused, but they turned a blind eye to it. When she begged for help, they only pushed Shan back to the room.
After a while, the husband came home and found out about the atrocities committed by his wife. As expected, Shan was beaten and kicked out. Shan was not given a chance to explain himself.
Shan went to another relative's house. But the same thing happened again and again. No matter which house Shan went to, the women would flock to Shan like moths to a light.
Someone's wife, someone's daughter, someone's sister... They all said that Shan had seduced them. And they went crazy over Shan.
"Where are you going? Don't leave my side. You tempted me!"
"Why won't you tell me you love me! Why!!"
"I can't live without you. Run away with me."
"If you leave me, you will die...!"
It was always Shan's fault in the end. Shan was always blamed and kicked out.
He thinks it was around that time that Shan became crooked. The moment he relaxed and thought that it didn't matter anymore, everything became easy.
From then on, Shan actively accepted the women who flirted with him. Now, they could no longer harass Shan.
Shan trampled on the lust and obsession they poured out as they clung to him. He dominated them and hurt them in the name of love.
The moment he treated women like toys, the anger that had no place to go seemed to subside for a moment.
But in the end, it was only a moment. The emptiness and anger that filled his heart did not disappear. Rather, it only grew bigger.
During the days of going from one woman's house to another, Shan saw a recruitment poster stuck on a wall on the street. He thought it was a strange poster trying to stimulate patriotism, but he couldn't take his eyes off the poster for a long time.
The next day, Shan volunteered for the war. He had no fear of losing his life. Death had long since lost its meaning to him.
He didn't want to live like this anymore. To calm the anger boiling inside him, Shan headed to the battlefield.
Shan, who fought in the Baluar Empire army, was able to join as a knight. Although he was considered a knight because he was a nobleman, his treatment was worse than that of a mercenary. Shan’s role was to be a brave arrow catcher who stood at the forefront of the battlefield and died bravely without receiving any special compensation.
But Shan was not ordinary. And the battlefield was a place where Shan could fully display his talents. Shan displayed incredible strength, surprising even himself.
Shan, who became a knight, was an awl in the pocket. He stood out so much that he couldn't hide it, and Shan didn't hide himself either.
However, as Shan's ability was recognized, the number of people who were jealous of him also increased. Shan's personality also played a part in this. Shan, who did not let anyone else be above him, did not know how to bend. Many of his superiors fell down because of Shan's stiff attitude, but Shan remained confident.
The Battle of Kirkla was a costly one for him. Shan was attacked by his fellow knights during his retreat and was abandoned.
Shan should have died that day, but he survived.
"Get your mind straight from now on. I will save you."
That was his first meeting with Elze.
"Why...you saved me."
"Just like that."
Elze rescued Shan and then suddenly left without asking for anything in return. Shan was able to survive thanks to Elze and returned to the camp three days later.
From then on, Shan became more and more vicious on the battlefield. However, he did not simply swing his sword. While achieving merits on the battlefield, he also gathered his own forces.
On the battlefield, people are instinctively drawn to the strong. Many had been wanting to follow Shan. Shan no longer ignored them and took them under his command.
He also deliberately approached Crown Prince Raymond. The two of them needed each other. He used Shan, and Shan used him.
Shan had grown old enough that no one could mess with him. But even amid his hectic days, there was one thought that kept lingering in Shan's mind.
