Chapter 29
My fingers, which had been brushing the fine hairs at the nape of my neck—unusually stiffened—now traced down to my collarbone.
“You’ll harbor doubts until I show you. Will you look for yourself?”
The weight of his hand pressing firmly around the bone extending to my shoulder awakened sensation deep in my lower belly.
“….”
At this point, even someone utterly oblivious should have understood.
It was a form of seduction—a request to resume our “devotions.”
I shifted my gaze slightly to Rotar Eisenrit’s chest.
The buttons of his loose linen shirt were only half-fastened, and beneath the beautifully sculpted skin, the firm muscles of his chest were starkly defined.
Come to think of it, had I ever truly seen Rotar Eisenrit’s body properly?
I had always been too consumed with fervent heat, too occupied with receiving his lips and touch. I had never even considered undressing the man who held me close and whispered intimate words against my skin.
I nodded as though entranced.
A low laugh seemed to echo above my head. His large hand drew away the robe draped over my body as though it had been waiting for this very moment.
***
“Ah, ah, ah….”
Moans spilled from my lips unbidden. Even when I clenched my teeth to stifle them, it was only momentary.
I crumpled the bed sheets in my grip, overwhelmed by the cascading pleasure, yet I refused to let my eyes leave the sight before me.
Because his bare back, unclothed and exposed, filled my entire vision.
Across the broad expanse, densely woven muscle rippled with his every movement.
Thin scars scattered across the surface, yet they were not unsightly—they were the marks of a warrior, befitting his exceptionally large and powerful frame.
As my hands gripped his thighs, thick sinews and defined muscle lines became visible beneath my palms.
As I gazed at his muscular forearms, Rotar Eisenrit lifted his head slightly, sensing my attention.
“Does it repel you?”
His murmur, spoken with his lips pressed against my skin, sent a sharp thrill through my lower belly.
“Ah, wh—what?”
“My body. It’s abnormal, isn’t it?”
Only then did I grasp his meaning. I barely managed to focus my trembling eyes as I asked back.
“Who told you something like that?”
“….”
Rotar Eisenrit chose silence.
He slowly lifted his lips from my skin, then—soft, soft—pressed damp kisses across the flushed, heated surface.
Simultaneously, his hand holding my thigh moved as well.
“Ah, Rotar, ah….”
I barely managed to speak through ragged breaths under the relentless stimulation.
“Ah, ah… if you don’t want to talk, that’s fine…, ah!”
Instead of responding, Rotar Eisenrit sank his teeth into the tender flesh below my collarbone.
He extended his tongue to caress the sensitive skin with its textured surface, and my hips arched involuntarily into the air.
“Ah, ah, ah….”
His movements continued with measured control, the tip of his tongue circling gently in a soothing rhythm.
I gripped the blanket with both hands, steadying my breath. With wet eyes, I looked down at him and spoke the words I had originally intended to say.
“Disgusting enemies? There are none. Hah, it’s just….”
Rotar Eisenrit pressed his lips together and sucked at my delicate skin, his tongue tracing its softness.
“Ah, terrifying, ah, I was so scared.”
In that moment, Rotar Eisenrit’s movements came to an abrupt halt.
With his tongue half-withdrawn, he lifted his gaze, and our eyes met. I continued speaking while holding his stare.
“…When you dragged your blood-soaked body to rescue me. I thought, what if you actually died like this?”
“….”
“It was so reckless. You’re not truly immortal…ah!”
The caress resumed only briefly. As I spoke, he bit my skin again, and an involuntary moan escaped my lips.
Rotar Eisenrit rubbed the caught flesh with the tip of his tongue.
Then he closed his lips and drew in deeply, and as the heat surged through my entire body, I trembled uncontrollably.
It was immediately after that Rotar Eisenrit’s hands began to move with urgency.
“Ah, ah, ah, yes!”
The pleasure that seemed to penetrate every corner of my body threatened to scatter my consciousness. When that sensation reached its peak.
“Ah, ah…!”
My vision went white.
My entire body trembled in the aftermath of ecstasy. Rotar Eisenrit left gentle kisses across my body.
Soon he spoke.
“Elise, you were equally reckless.”
“Ah, ah, what….”
“You consumed a lethal poison. A drug created to kill. Even with an antidote, no one could predict how your body would react. The poison could have acted quickly, killing you at an unexpected moment.”
“…No, Konrad handled it well….”
“Or perhaps Maximilian could have chosen differently. To let you suffer and die without administering the antidote, to violate you as you writhed in agony. He is certainly capable of such cruelty.”
“….”
“You must have known. That it was a choice fraught with variables.”
“No…, ah, wait, ah!”
It hadn’t been long since we stopped. His hands grasped my thighs again, and I gasped in surprise.
“What terrifies me more than anything now is that you might abandon me in this life and leave.”
“Wait, please stop…!”
Rotar Eisenrit moved immediately. The pleasure that rushed in from his tongue’s caresses melted my resistance helplessly. A red warning light began to blare in my mind.
I had to stop this now. Otherwise.
“Yes, no, ah, yes…!”
“What if you die seeking an easier life in the next one? Wouldn’t that be too cruel? Have you ever considered the feelings of one left behind alone?”
“No, yes, I, that’s not, ah, ah, ah!”
But there was no escape from the embrace of the Empire’s strongest man.
Then, when my eyes met his deep green gaze.
‘…Why?’
I felt my breath catch. The face of the man who had been driving me forward moments ago seemed far too fragile for such intensity.
It was strange. Rotar Eisenrit and I were bound by necessity. We had to topple our common enemy, Maximilian. We had to survive without being consumed by him.
In other words, we were cards that could be discarded depending on each other’s needs.
Rotar was right. A card I would never choose in the next life if I failed in this one. And that card was Rotar Eisenrit.
“…Rotar”.
“Yes, Your Highness?”
The human heart is impossible to fathom.
The way he seemed unsettled because of me irritated me. I didn’t want to see that expression on his face. Not tonight, at least.
I lifted my trembling hand and cupped his cheek.
I pulled him close and pressed my lips against his. Silently, deliberately, like stamping a seal.
The warmth and softness of his touch sent a tingling sensation through a corner of my heart.
I parted my lips and opened my mouth again, close enough to feel his breath against my skin.
“I won’t abandon you. Even if circumstances worsen and we both plummet into the depths of hell together.”
“….”
“Not until you die. So.”
I quietly lifted one leg. I planted my foot firmly and nudged.
“…!”
I had touched something on this man that was utterly unremarkable nowhere.
It wasn’t frightening or uncomfortable like before.
Why was that? What had changed? Was it because this man, who despised my suffering more than I did, stood before me?
I whispered as I watched Rotar, unable to hide the wavering in his eyes.
“Shall we try it? This marital duty, as they call it.”
It was an impulsive choice. But once I said it, my chest felt lighter.
For some reason, his green eyes, darker than before, swept across my face. Rotar’s lips trembled as if parched before he spoke.
I expected him to utter gentlemanly words—asking if I would regret it, telling me to reconsider. But instead.
“…You have made your choice.”
What came back was a quiet warning.
My body, suspended in midair, was flipped over immediately after.
All that filled my vision were the bed’s headboard and pillows. I instinctively tried to turn around, but my hips were firmly held in place.
“…Rotar?”
“Be careful not to bite your tongue.”
That was the last warning Rotar gave me.
Only then did I understand.
“…Ah…!”
Rotar was a wolf masquerading as an obedient dog.
