Chapter 148 - FANFIC (NON CANON): Moonlit Night

{…This is it…I am done…}

I got up and angrily stormed my way to the Empress dowager's palace with Xiao Ruo running behind me trying to stop me, But this time no one can stop me after that.

{…How dare they? They killed my….my (｡ŏ﹏ŏ) my hot pot …Poisoned it, before I could eat it ·´¯`(>▂

Just as I turned into the hallway to her reception hall. I heard a male voice and a female voice arguing.

{…Hmmm…Is she is on a killing spree again?...}

We looked around and saw that there were no place maids or guards so I stuck my ear to the door and listened.

"'Why her? There are so many girls in this country, why did you choose her? I am okay with anyone else just not her!"

"Mother, this is my last and final warning to you. Stop putting aphrodisiacs in my food and poisons in Lei Xing's. I am not choosing anyone else as empress other than her. It's your choice, it's either her or an empty chair for the heir"

"And for today's episode, I believe that you must need rest after all that. All this planning and plotting must be exhausting, how about you stay indoors for a while? A month will be enough for you to rest. Guards !." There were footsteps coming towards the door then they stopped near the door "Remember Mother, there is no one but her for me...no one ." 

Before I could listen any further, Xiao Ruo pulled me back, "The guards are coming, let's go"

We hid in the corner of the hall and when the route was clear, we went on our way. 

I returned to my palace and sat still in a daze as Xiao Ruo scolded me. The only thing I could hear were his words, "…No one but her for me" 

{…Maybe he isn't that bad and this isn't as bad as it seems…maybe, just maybe…}

Eventually, Xiao Ruo sighed and went to see to dinner, while I jumped on the bed to rest. I ended up just laying on the bed for a long while staring at the ceiling.

{…He has done so much for me…maybe I should give something back…}

With that thought in my mind, I called for Ah Jin.

After Emperor and I had dinner, I left the room and told Ah Jin to get the arrangements ready. Then I came back to the emperor and made idle talk until she came in carrying the Qin, behind her were Xiao Ruo and some servants carrying the other things.

After the set up was complete, they all left the room with Xiao Ruo giving me a discrete thumbs up for good luck.

{…Who was this luck for? Me, so I play successfully or for the Emperor to get through my performance with his ear drums intact?...}

I glanced at the Emperor who was looking at me with a raised eyebrow and a small smirk. I looked away and shyly smiled as I sat down and put my hands on the Qin, then I closed my eyes ,took a deep breath and began playing.

As I played, I just watched his eyes. When I first sat, they were filled with puzzlement then astonishment and finally as I proceeded further into the song they bright with happiness and amus.e.m.e.nt.

Perhaps I was paying too much attention to his changing expressions. As a result, I was so distracted by his extreme devotion to my song and ended up plucked a string too hard cutting my finger and I exclaimed, "Ow" and looked down at my finger.

He was next to me in an instant and took my hand and examined my finger like he was a surgeon. I stifled my giggles as I looked at his concentrated expression.

As if knowing that I was laughing at him, he shifted his gaze to my face. I froze and blinked at him and he smiled and said, "Your performance was exceptional; however, I think that your skills lie elsewhere. You should concentrate on your horse-riding training with me."

After saying that he went back to his examination then called for the servants to get some medication. He refused their help and chose to apply the medication on his own.

The tenderness he was doing it with was slowly warmed my heart. He had countless beauties in harem, at his beck and call and yet here he was bandaging my finger like it was the most precious thing in the world. As I looked at him, only one thought came to my mind.

{…It really might be okay if it's him…It'll be okay if it's him…}

After he finished the first aid and was about to get up, I pulled his hand with a force even I didn't know I had. As he fell back down the pillow near me, I touched his face and moved closer to him, leaving a few inches between our faces.

"Your majesty, how about those riding lessons right now?" He smiled a bit, clearly confused. He wanted to say something his words were swallowed by my kiss.

Our lips molded together like they never had before, as if moved as if they were one. It seemed like he finally realized what I meant and he passionately deepened the kiss. The passion overwhelmed me, it was like a predatory wolf preying on a lamb, and the poor lamb me was shocked at first, but eventually responded with the same passion.

One hand tangled into my long hair while the second was clutching my waist. My hands worked quickly on the front of his robe and opened it. One hand on his cheek, while the other hand began exploring down his chest.

As my hand went deeper downwards, my arm was suddenly grabbed by his hand, he broke the kiss and looked at me with searching eyes,  "Are you sure? I am okay with. I don't to force you to do something you don't want to." I could see a lot of emotions swirling in his eyes; affection, l.u.s.t and most prominently was determination.

I knew that if I stopped now, he would not say anything to me, but the thing was that I didn't want to stop. I wanted to become one with him, to never be apart, to become one soul and body, together. I never experienced this sort of feeling in my past life and did not think it possible, but now it was here and I knew that if I wanted to, it had to be with him and no one but him.

With this resolve in my mind, I softly smiled at him then started trailing kisses down his neck. I moved to his collar bone and lightly bit it, I earned me a gasp from him. I giggled lightly before kissing down his chest. I reached for one of his two rose colored buds and sucked on it, twirling my tongue around it and bit lightly before moving on to the next one and giving it the same attention.

I could hear the Emperor sucking in his breaths and gasping and it I shyly smiled and continued my work. I started trailing down his chest leaving kiss marks on his chest, making sure each fully bloomed into hickeys before moving to the next. He belongs to me and I wanted anyone who saw to know, anyone who actually dared to venture this far. Just as I was about to reach his naval area, I was suddenly yanked up and hastily carried and gently dropped on the bed.

"You have teased me too much. It's my turn now." Emperor said with a wicked smirk as he swiftly removed his robes and came to me bare chested. I took a deep breath, I was nervous but I determinedly looked at him with a come hither expression, goading him and simply laid back and let him do his work.

He kissed me a bit roughly almost bruising my lips. He bit my lower lip then sucked on it and then his tongue went in to dance with mine. He poured all of his passion into the kiss and I could feel his urgency, it seems I had made him wait too long. His hands worked fast, I didn't even realise when he had removed my clothes, leaving me with only in my inner garments.

He licked my earlobe and nibbled on it lightly as his hands undid my inner garments and slid them off. He raised his head and first of all used his eyes to feast on my body and then his mouth did.

He sucked on the little mole between the valley of my white mounds to his heart's content as his hands busied themselves with playing with the two peaks on my chest, then he moved on to suck on the peaks as I did his, making me a gasping and m.o.a.ning mess, despite my attempts to stifle the sounds.

After his mouth had enough of playing them, he kissed downwards towards my belly as his hands continued to play with my bosom. He licked, sucked and bit, no part of my body was left untouched by him. My hands were pulling his hair, begging for something yet no knowing what it was.

He was unstoppable in his pursuit. He knew what he wanted and he knew how to take it. His search led him to my thighs which he peppered with light kisses, making me feel ticklish. The constant attacks made me giggle and I felt him smile against my skin. He quickly kissed his way back up and deeply kissed my lips as he parted my legs and placed himself between them. He stopped for a bit and looked at me softly and I shyly trained my eyes at his chest, I could feel my face, no, my whole body burning.

He lightly caressed my hair and then kissed my forehead and then my cheeks and went back to kissing my lips as he tried to ease himself into me. I felt a sharp pain and immediately sucked in a breath, breaking the kiss, the pain was intense and it felt like I was being torn apart on the inside. I knew it would hurt but I was not prepared for this level of pain, I couldn't help the tears sliding down my eyes, he stopped and lightly brushed at the tears and kissed them away and stayed still until I calmed down a bit and whispered, "Continue."

He gently kissed my lips and then began moving slowly and carefully as I closed my eyes and tried to bear it. He was slow and steady, clearly holding back for me, like always. Eventually, the pain was slowly masked with the pleasure that was steadily bubbling up in me. He buried his head in my neck, raining kisses on it as he panted and grunted with pleasure, melody to my ears.

As he went faster, I could feel myself letting go and slowly ascending to the high he was taking me to and eventually felt myself erupting, as he bent down and passionately held my lips as he reached his own climax. We kissed for a long while, then he laid down beside me holding close and snuggly as we both gasped for air as, coming down from our pleasure ride, looking at each other feeling fully sated. I felt drowsy and lightheaded like I was floating in the clouds with him as my only anchor.

I truly saw him for the first time, The real him basking in the moonlight looking at me with loving eyes. I saw the man, not the Emperor, I saw my husband. I leaned forward and softly kissed him and we kissed for a long while and then snuggled close together. He covered our bodies with the blanket and we both went to sleep, hugging each other close.
