Elysia narrowed her eyes and gazed at Cassian.

Why did he come in without even knocking on her?

Anxiety that she probably didn’t hear, slowly crept up.

He furrowed his brows as he looked at the red eyes that shook anxiously. Cassian went straight to her, took her hand and wrapped one hand around her forehead while the other around her neck.

“If you’re sick, you should have told me… Hoo.”

Elysia let Cassian observe her. When she felt cool along with his refreshing body, it was difficult for her to refuse.

Pushing back and forth like this, it wasn’t even funny.

“Let’s go to the bedroom.”

Cassian carefully held her in his arms.

Elysia, who had thought she would refuse, meekly wrapped her arms around Cassian’s neck. In fact, she didn’t even dare to walk on her own. Even after just having a conversation with Ramote, she was already losing energy already.

There were no words between them as she headed for the bedroom.

Elysia had such a conversation yesterday, and she was seeing him for the first time since that, so it was difficult for her to open her mouth easily.

Meanwhile, Cassian seemed angry with her condition.

Placing Elysia on the bed, he leaned her over and reached out his hand.

His long fingers brushed the corners of her eyes.

“Did you cry?”

“No.”

Cassian pondered something, and then he reached out his hand behind Elysia’s back. With the sound of the ribbon unraveling and her clothes loosening, she hurriedly raised her hand to restrain him.

“What is it all of a sudden?!”

“Your body is a fireball. Are you still wearing it?”

“It’s okay.”

“If it’s because you didn’t drink enough blood yesterday…”

Elysia shook her head at his words.

The wounds because of the sword were already healing steadily. But, what is this…? It was like the fever of a young woman who became aware of the depths of her heart when she heard a confession…

At that, she stopped thinking in shame.

“It’s all right. It’ll get better with time, okay?”

“Did you sleep?”

Hearing such a confession, she couldn’t have been able to sleep.

Elysia lowered her eyes again.

It was because he knew it didn’t seem like she slept well last night. In addition, the culprit was only him, so he had nothing to say.

“If you’re really worried, just stop the maids.”

“What do you mean?”

“I just want to get some rest. Maybe soon, they’ll drag me to the bathroom, and do this here and there. It’s going to be rough, and it’s very difficult for me right now.”

“Hmm…”

Cassian tilted his head, thinking, and rubbed his chin.

Elysia thought she would get an answer saying yes, but somehow she was worried.

“I don’t do things for free.”

“….?”

“I’m not going to do it.”

The corners of Elysia’s lips twitched.

Of course, she knew that he was being brazen after doing that yesterday, but she didn’t expect it to come out like that. After all, she has no choice but to give Gray an excuse that she’s sick.

Elysia didn’t want to do that to the worried and weeping Gray, though what should she do?

“Okay, then.”

Elysia looked at him without an answer and asked a question. “By the way, why did you come in without knocking? It’s fine for me, but an excuse for Old Man.”

“There must have been something that I shouldn’t have looked at?”

“There was nothing like that.”

There were just a lot of things he shouldn’t have heard…

She had been restraining herself since she was moved to the mansion by Cassian. When he came out like that, she didn’t have anything else to say, so she kept her mouth shut.

“I don’t know what you’re worried about, but I didn’t see anything. I didn’t hear anything.”

The more he said it, the more suspicious it became.

Just as she was about to ask something else, Elysia could hear the sound of thunderous footsteps.

“Your maids seem to be coming already. It’s not too late now.”

Saying so, Cassian gave her a subtle signal to tell him to help. Although she smiled and shook her head.

Gray’s voice was heard along with a knock.

At that, he raised the corners of his lips and gave the words to come in.

…Why was he smiling so playfully?

The three maids stiffened as if they didn’t know Cassian was there. Then, he opened his mouth to the maids.

“Is there a lot to do?”

“Yes? Oh… Tomorrow is the wedding day. I was about to give a massage.”

‘Except for the wounds, of course,’ Gray swallowed.

“Is the bathroom ready?”

“Yes, yes.”

At his question, the maids, including Elysia, tilted their heads. She was about to get up as she felt something uneasy about it. However, Cassian raised his hand and grabbed her shoulder.

“I’ll do it, so just go.”

“…Yes?”

“I told you to retreat.”

Hearing his words, the maids blushed and hurriedly left the bedroom.

As they left, Elysia pouted her mouth and poked her finger to his side before opening her mouth. “Thank you. I’m going to sleep, then.”

“Well, it doesn’t matter if you fall asleep.”

“What do you mean… Kyaak!”

Cassian grabbed Elysia and moved her to the bathroom.

Did he really mean it? Didn’t he just say that he was worried since her whole body is a ball of fire?!

“Cassian, I’m sick.”

“I think you look fine.”

Elysia paused as she tried to refute what that meant. Obviously, her body, which had been hot until thirty minutes ago, was as cool as usual.

Why is it so arbitrary…?

It was clear that this body did not know who its owner was.

“I have a wound on that side.”

“I know. I’m not going to touch that.”

“Didn’t you tell me to lie down and rest?”

“Rest in the bathroom.”

Elysia struggled to get out of his grasp, but to no avail.

Upon arriving at the bathroom, Cassian gently placed Elysia on the massage bed. How fast are the touches to take off her clingy dress… In an instant, she was dressed in a chemise.

“Look at the wound.”

“If you get a massage, it might reopen.”

“Hmmm.”

Elysia desperately grabbed his collar and shook her head. At the same time, Cassian suddenly lowered the tip of his eyebrows and stared at her.

What’s with this miserableness like a dog beaten in the rain?

Elysia grabbed her back and pushed her body back. She immediately reminded herself not to be deceived, as his expression was not very playful until just a moment ago.

“Show me. I’m worried.”

There was a hint of earnestness in his voice.

Show it to Cassian…? Yes?

He grabbed Elysia’s wrist, which was holding her chemise.

“I won’t show you.”

Slowly, Cassian lowered his head and blew into her ear. The power was released from the hand in an instant, along with her getting goosebumps.

At that moment, he put a blanket on her leg and lifted the chemise.

What, when did he even cover her with a blanket…?

“This… swindler. Blackmailer.”

“This is enough for you to go to the bath.”

Cassian, seeing her wounds, raised the corners of his lips. And, he reached out to take off her chemise.

“Don’t do that.”

“I’ll just give you a massage.”

“Lies.”

“I want you to know that no matter how much I was rejected yesterday, I wouldn’t do anything.”

Elysia’s lips closed as if making a shushing sound.

Wasn’t it taboo?

She didn’t say anything, so she thought he was going to do the same too, but perhaps not.

“Call the maids again.”

“You can’t show any wounds.”

“I can cover it.”

“Don’t worry, wife. I’ll take care of you here and there, just like you said.”

Cassian stretched out his hand towards Elysia, who had stiffened at the word ‘wife.’ He quickly removed the chemise and turned over her body. Then, he laid a large towel around her waist as she lay on her back and stretched his hand to her side.

After looking at some massage oils, Cassian quickly opened the bottle.

“…Hah!”

“It’s a massage, though it should be difficult to feel it.”

“It’s not that… Ah.”

Cassian slid his fingers along her shoulder line.

Meanwhile, Elysia, who had already been massaged by him, looked devastated. She won’t be able to escape from him now. Her body knew all too well the pleasure of his hands.

After a while.

“Hng. There, there.”

“Can’t you recover from muscle soreness? Is it because you’re sick today?”

Leaving him to answer it himself, Elysia felt his hand moving around gently. Cassian squeezed her calf with his fingers. At the same time, she was busy holding her breath and trembled.

He was a great man in many ways.

“It hurts!”

“I think you like it even when it hurts.”

“How can I—haak… gentler.”

“Hold on. I can’t help it here.”

Belatedly, the maids who came to the front of the bathroom with a pack to put on Elysia’s face returned with blushing faces.

***
 

Elysia was only released when Lloyd said that he was looking for Cassian.

“This isn’t it…”

Laying down on the bed with her weary body, she let out a long sigh. So, doesn’t this make it seem like nothing happened yesterday? How did this happen?

Elysia gave a self-helpful laugh.

“Lady, it’s Gray.”

“Come in.”

She glanced at the door with a puzzled gaze. There, Gray’s hands were holding familiar objects.

“…What?”

“That’s why I didn’t bring this in the bathroom! You have to put on a face mask, too.”

“No wonder.”

“I’ll just do it here.”

She then put a towel on the pillow as Elysia lay down. Gray, who had been putting a pack on her face, opened her mouth.

“You don’t know how upset everyone was when the Young Lady met the Crown Prince. I’m so glad you met such a good person.”

“You can’t even talk about His Highness…”

“Shh.”

“Take it away.”

“Shh! Don’t talk while wearing a face mask.”

“Ugh…”

Elysia rolled her eyes and looked out the window.

It was already getting dark.

“Actually, I didn’t think he liked the Lady.”

Elysia closed her eyes and listened to Grey.

…What did she say about her?

Without thinking for a long time, she was able to realize one thing for sure. If he really wanted to… If he didn’t like it, she had to leave. Even though she had no intention of leaving on her own unless Cassian pushed her out first, Elysia had mistakenly thought that she was pushing him too hard.

She was afraid of getting hurt, so she pretended.

Because of that, in the end, it was Cassian who got hurt…

Elysia jumped up to her feet.

“Lady!”

Maybe they can just pretend they can’t win and try together.

There was an excuse that she could not break the contract, and there was an excuse that she was comfortable with sucking blood from his finger. Maybe their heart doesn’t get bigger here unexpectedly, and after three years, it might end like a passing romance…

Elysia didn’t know if she would have such a heart that she could happily live with the memories. She hated being dragged around like this without being able to leave.

On the subject that she proudly declared that the next three years he would be hers. It’s been a while since she told Lumiere to take him away, and she was terrified inside.

‘I’m sorry Cassian, but it was just as planned…’

“Grey, where is His Excellency?”

“Uh… Maybe he’s in the office.”
