Ethan stood in the ceremonial hall, dressed neatly in wedding robes. In front of him stood Sophia. She looked at him, her eyes slightly distant, as if lost in thought.
The air between them was filled with quiet tension.
Seeing this,the maids working started to cry.
The love of their life was marrying someone else while the male servants gritted their teeth angrily with hateful gaze.
'Why?Why is it him?'
Their looks didn't escape Nina and Oliver gazes who snorted inwardly.
'It's because of your looks.Do you even deserve him.'
At the same time they had to admit.
Ethan looked quite otherworldly.
Little did they know how correct they were.
The priest stepped forward. His voice was steady as he looked at them both and said, "Please seal the vow of love with a kiss."
Ethan had barely processed the words when Sophia leaned forward without hesitation. She closed the distance and kissed him.
From the side, Nina, Oliver, and Randal immediately turned their heads away, avoiding the sight.
'Oh God… lady, please control yourself,''Ethan thought silently, feeling the warmth on his face.
Thankfully, the marriage had been arranged privately, with only a few people present. If this had been a public event with hundreds of guests, it could have hurt their reputation.
The ceremony itself was simple. The priest had guided them through the vows before announcing them as husband and wife. There were no grand celebrations, no loud music or feasts. Just a quiet exchange of words, a symbolic kiss, and a few blessings.
As they stepped away from the altar, Ethan let out a slow breath. The past month of endless lessons and sleepless days had finally led to this moment. Sophia, standing beside him, seemed calm and composed.
Ethan, however, felt a mix of relief and uncertainty, wondering what awaited him in this new chapter of life.
.....
The room was dimly lit, the soft glow of candles casting warm light across the bed. The faint scent of flowers lingered in the air, mixing with the quiet rhythm of Ethan's breath.
Sophia leaned close, her lips brushing against his ear. Her voice was low and warm, each word curling around him like a secret.
"What…For real?"
Ethan's eyes widened slightly, his heart skipping a beat. He turned his head toward her, searching her gaze for confirmation.
Sophia's smile deepened into something mischievous, her eyes glinting with both affection and boldness.
"Please…It's our first night husband..Can't do such small things..Also I promise you can have as many women as you like,I won't come in our way.
Ethan felt a tingle down his spine hearing the sweet sultry voice.
"Are you joking with me?"He asked, wondering if this was a trap.
"Of course not….I am sure once you enter a noble society,people will throw them at you."
Ethan felt a headache and waved his hand"Stop...Ju..Just tell me, do you really want me to act like that?"
She gave a slow, deliberate nod, her fingers tracing lightly over his chest as if seducing him.
"Please.." she whispered.
'Hisss..I didn't know mediaeval people also know to enjoy like this..'
'So my wife is into hardcore shit.'
