“Are you going to continue following me?”

With an annoyed voice, Theon turned to Mason who was following him.

The two men’s steps were now on the bridge between the detached palace and the royal palace.

“You can’t do this. I don’t trust Your Majesty. Come with me to the east palace.”

“If you bring up that conversation one more time… you won’t even be able to enter the royal palace.”

“No… It’s because I’m worried. I’m worried.”

“That’s enough, from this moment on no one is allowed to come inside the detached palace. Secretary Mason in particular. I’m talking to you.”

Theon’s dignified fingers turned to Mason.

“But if there is anything urgent…”

“You can tell me tomorrow.”

“There may be correspondence from the border.”

“Just don’t come. Don’t come, even if someone dies. I really won’t stand still if I’m interrupted again.”

Keep that in mind.

Judging from his master’s glaring eyes, it seemed that he wasn’t lying.

He could see that his tightly closed mouth and twitching eyebrows were filled with determination.

“Ugh… Your wish is my command.”

The loyal subject Mason Fren.

With a deep sigh, he finally raised the white flag.

***

Trudge, trudge.

Theon’s regular heart rate quickly rose with the sound of his footsteps echoing inside the detached palace.

The interior, which was so familiar to him to the point it was boring, felt unfamiliar and exciting as if it was his first time there.

The detached palace, which was usually filled with darkness without any ray of light, was all set to welcome the new owner.

Reflecting Ayla’s taste for flowers and plants, the entire palace was full of life like never before. The black wallpaper and furniture on all sides were also changed for pastel tones, creating a warm and sweet atmosphere.

Crackle! Crackle!

Along with the sound of the dry firewood burning, a pleasant humming tickled Theon’s ears. Feeling a presence, Ayla, who was sitting on the rug and sorting out the clothes she had brought, turned her gaze upwards.

“You’re here?”

Ayla’s eyes bent slightly when she found Theon, and she smiled beautifully. The white dress, resembling her white skin, was dazzling. And the golden embroidery on top of it. The slender body and pretty eyes that could be seen at first glance between the long black pearly hair were so beautiful that he couldn’t take his eyes off them.

Thump-

Theon’s heart shook greatly at the sight of his beautiful lover. So much that he was worried she might hear it.

“How does it feel coming back to the detached palace?”

“The mood changed a lot, so I was surprised. When I first came here, it was so dark that I was worried a ghost would come out.”

Smiling shyly, Ayla slowly scanned her surroundings with her blue eyes.

Though she hardened for a moment due to Theon’s straightforward words that ensued.

“Because it’s our honeymoon.”

“Cough. This is where I’ll stay, isn’t it? It’s a little far from where Your Majesty is staying.”

“Hm… In theory, yes.”

Unlike Ayla, who was embarrassed, Theon’s expression was only serious.

Ayla clapped her hands and opened her mouth, looking around as if she was going to change the topic.

“I was surprised that the b-bed was so spacious. The blankets are soft and there is good sunlight. I love it.”

“We’re going to share that.”

Woosh.

Ayla’s face turned red in an instant.

She looked adorable, looking down while moving her lips slightly. So much that he wanted to hold her right away.

“Is it weird for a couple to use one bed?”

“It’s… still soon! We didn’t even hold the wedding ceremony.”

“We can hold it as early as tomorrow.”

Theon, who had come closer to her, whispered in Ayla’s ear.

Ayla’s blue eyes, which were swiftly shaking at his sweet voice, gradually found their place.

“Thank you.”

“…”

“For being my queen.”

Theon’s fingertips gently swept down Ayla’s hair.

The two people remained silent for a while, their gazes facing each other.

“Thank you. For accepting the lacking me as the queen.”

Theon smiled at Ayla’s sincere voice.

His moist lips descended past her round forehead onto the sharp bridge of her nose.

Theon, who was scanning Ayla’s red cheeks with his fingertips, slowly brought his lips closer.

“I love you.”

Along with his low sinking voice, the quiet interior was filled with lewd noises as their tongues intertwined.

Theon’s tongue, which had been pushed in roughly, wandered through her mouth with a skillful movement.

Exhaling a sultry breath as he scanned through Ayla’s neat teeth, he slowly detached his lips, unable to hold back anymore.

The saliva of the two stretched like a web between their detached lips.

“I love you.”

Ayla whispered to Theon with hazy eyes.

At the same time, Theon’s body was close to her slightly open white legs.

“I’m going to stop holding back now.”

There was a deep desire in Theon’s eyes as he took a rough breath. Soon, his large hands lifted Ayla’s slender body.

Ayla’s arms naturally wrapped around Theon’s neck and her body rose in the air.

With a fishy smile, his moist lips bit Ayla’s lips as if to swallow them.

Trudge, trudge.

The two closely attached bodies headed to the canopy bed in the center.

The curtain that came down from the towering columns fluttered.

Like the slightly fluttering eyes of the two people that contained each other.

After gazing at each other for a while, the lips of the two instantly overlapped.

The hot, soft touch that was moving smoothly inside her mouth seemed to make her mind grow dazed.

A small moan burst out of Ayla’s mouth as Theon swept through her back, exposed through the opening of her dress.

At the same time, she felt a soft touch beneath her heated skin.

As she was lying on the bed, she could see Theon smiling affectionately at her.

“Shall we do the rest inside?”

Ayla nodded shyly, both cheeks flushing at Theon’s voice asking for permission.

Whoosh.

The secret whispers of the two continued through the drawn curtains.

Along with a burst of occasional happy laughter.
