【Special Side Story Episode 2】
* * *
The next morning.
Saying he had outside appointments, Kail kissed my forehead early and went out.
Despite being fully armored in cat form last night, he was as affectionate with physical contact as usual.
‘…But why did he do that?’
Sipping my tea, I looked around.
Since only Eta was here, I thought I’d get some relationship advice.
“…Eta, this is embarrassing to say. Kail appeared in cat form last night. What does this mean?”
After seeming to think for a moment, Eta answered with a serious face.
“It means he appeared in cat form.”
“Hm?”
That’s not helpful at all.
‘…The maid who picked out the nightgown turns out to be perpetually single?’
I eventually asked directly.
“Does appearing in beast form on our first night mean Kail doesn’t want to have heirs with me?”
Finally understanding what I meant, Eta gasped and stepped back.
“Good heavens! What a tragedy!”
Then she vehemently denied it.
“That can’t be! His Majesty Kail has dreamed every day of living with Lady Aisha. When building the royal palace, he naturally considered rooms for future children. Even…”
“Even?”
“He received special education about the first night!”
“…From whom? From dwarves?”
“There are no humans here besides Lady Aisha. So naturally it was us. That comment just now was discriminatory against dwarves.”
Eta answered sourly.
But that wasn’t the problem.
How did the dwarves explain something that would be embarrassing even between humans…?
I couldn’t even figure out how to ask.
So I just blinked suspiciously, when suddenly Eta pushed up her glinting glasses and emphasized her expertise.
“As Lady Aisha said, we are not human. However, we have precisely analyzed the peculiar process by which they reproduce offspring throughout human history. I’m confident we know more than Lady Aisha, who has never performed the ritual.”
“…Right. I’ve never… done it. Never studied it either.”
In the end, I had to declare defeat.
“Anyway, Kail transformed into a cat, and I’m worried he’ll keep doing that. Isn’t there some way to handle this?”
“Well. Even we can’t control His Majesty’s beast transformation… Moreover, since the bed is sized for his beast form, he can sleep comfortably even without being human.”
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck my blank mind.
“…That was the problem.”
“Pardon?”
“Then we just need to have our first night in a space where he can’t transform into a beast! Like going on a honeymoon. Somewhere all the furniture is sized for humans. Then he won’t be able to transform!”
“Good heavens, that’s brilliant!”
Eta also seemed to like my idea.
“Then I’ll research suitable honeymoon destinations for Lady Aisha and His Majesty Kail and report back.”
“Thank you!”
After making this pact with Eta for our honeymoon, the second night arrived.
I was rolling myself up in the blanket alone again when a huge shadow loomed over the dim bed.
“Kail, did you appear as a cat again?”
“Meow.”
A cat again, I see.
“What are you trying to avoid by keep transforming into a cat?”
When I smiled softly and asked quite directly this time, he seemed embarrassed and showed his belly in surrender.
But since all he could say was meow, he definitely wouldn’t tell me the reason.
“Fine. If you don’t want to talk, don’t.”
If you’re going to keep your mouth shut, I’ll just move the interrogation room.
I smiled mischievously and fell asleep in his arms.

The next day.
Our honeymoon destination was decided.
Eta explained enthusiastically, as if there was no better place.
“It’s a kingdom called Lepta, located south of the Frozen Empire along with the Maein Kingdom. This kingdom is famous as a resort for nobles, and due to its characteristically humid and warm climate, clothing tends to be simple. Also, perhaps due to that characteristic…”
Gulp.
I swallowed and asked.
“…Perhaps?”
Eta pushed up her glasses as if she’d made a good point.
“They’re said to be open about ‘sexuality’ as well.”
Good heavens.
I don’t know what exactly, but at least I’ll be able to see Kail shirtless.
“Approved!”
And so our honeymoon destination was decided.
* * *
“Look into the Kingdom of Lepta. Aisha wants to go there for our honeymoon.”
After finishing his afternoon schedule, Kail ordered his aide.
Even when busy with various state affairs, he always shared meals with Aisha, and she had mentioned the Kingdom of Lepta during one such meal.
‘They say festivals are always being held and the air is warm. My body felt heavy from gloves and scarves every time I went out, but how light would I feel there? I’ll wear short-sleeved dresses, so I might be light enough to fly around.’
She must have really wanted to go, sparkling her eyes while even joking, so he couldn’t refuse.
He hadn’t planned to refuse anyway.
However, when he saw the report his aide had compiled, he doubted his eyes.
“…How can a single shoulder strap support the weight of fabric to cover important areas? Aide, did you investigate this properly?”
Aisha’s comment about being light enough to fly around wasn’t an exaggeration.
The aide, who had been listening quietly, cleared his throat.
“A-ahem. Your Majesty. To avoid misunderstanding, they don’t cover important areas with straps, but wear sleeveless tops.”
“Isn’t that the same thing? Either way, Aisha’s shoulders would be exposed.”
“Yes, that’s correct. However, commoners, nobles, and even the king dress that way there. It’s due to climate, not improper intentions.”
“I’m interpreting it improperly.”
“May I ask why?”
“Because…”
Kail, who had started to speak in agitation, stopped.
Suddenly, a scene unfolded in his mind like fluffy clouds.
That first night.
When Aisha sat up in bed and the blankets became disheveled around her, white, soft skin was revealed between them.
On her white, round shoulders hung a thin strap-like camisole, precariously like a thread ring.
Remembering the silhouette of the dress that curved like a winding river below that—
“…”
Kail couldn’t say anything and covered his face with his palm.
Even trying to think rationally, his body reacted first.
“Your Majesty?”
“…”
“Your Majesty, why are your earlobes turning red while talking to me? Should I be concerned?”
“Quiet.”
Glaring at his aide through his fingers, he let out a labored sigh.
In fact, Kail hadn’t slept a wink that night.
Outwardly, he had curled up to keep Aisha warm, but he kept remembering Aisha’s cool figure hidden under the blankets.
‘Kail, what’s wrong? Should I scratch your chin? Should I pet your head?’
When she asked if she should pet him with those pure, innocent eyes, how flustered he had been.
“Your Majesty?”
The aide’s call could no longer be heard.
He completely buried his face in his hands on the desk.
‘She seemed to be looking forward to the wedding night.’
It was natural.
Now the two of them were married and legally husband and wife.
But there was something Kail realized that Aisha had overlooked.
As far as he knew, Aisha had never formally received education about the ‘wedding night.’
