Anne, who took a deep breath, lifted her heavy eyelids with difficulty. She tried her best to hold on with her mental strength whenever she was hit with a wave of dizziness, but her retinas were dyed with darkness in a world that was turned upside down halfway through, and she seemed to lose her consciousness for a moment.
Through her half-closed eyes, the Grand Duke could be seen raising his upper body. Just as the dawn light passing through the window shone on his face, his shadowy, sculptural appearance shone beautifully. She thought he was beautiful when she saw him last night, but when the bright light hit him from the front, her eyes were dazzled. Moreover, unlike Anne, who was lying on the bed with her hair scattered all over her body, the Grand Duke had a clean face without a single mess.
“You will be satisfied with this.”
The Grand Duke asked, wiping his bangs back coolly. A slight smile spread across his lips.
“. . . Your Grace?”
To be precise, it was the Grand Duke who had satiated his lust. Anne’s voice cracked badly as she asked back, the aftermath of her screaming all night long.
He smirked at the answer that was deliberately sensitive.
“I would rather ask. I can’t believe it’s the first time I’ve seen a person panting under me. It suits me so well.”
“. . .”
“And I did exactly what my wife wanted.”
Deep lust was etched in his stern tone, saying that he was merely complying with a request. As if to look back on last night, the Grand Duke slowly pulled his removed penis upward.
At the unparalleled size, Anne lowered her gaze not to show her embarrassment.
“Like I said, it’s not at all a waste to not get the compensation money. I will never be tired of this body in the future.”
A body worthy of compensation has no different meaning than to be a prostitute in exchange for money. Anne, who bit her lip in contempt, looked at him with tears in her eyes.
“You don’t have to look at me like that. Even if it’s not a deal, all you have to do here is spread your legs.”
He frowned with a dissatisfied expression at her disrespectful look. Then he glanced at her, who didn’t answer, and then spat out with kindness.
“As you said, now that you are the Grand Duchess, you can do whatever you want in the castle.”
“It’s a relie that I’m locked up.”
The Grand Duke, who was about to get up, approached at once as if to attack Anne in response to the harsh reply. Surprised at him who approached her nose in the blink of an eye, Anne instinctively pulled her body.
“If you want to be locked up, I can do that. It’s not so bad. It would be okay to lock you up and just do it all day.”
The unique deep pupils gave off a deep light and fell onto Anne’s body which had goosebumps all over.
Anne instinctively clenched her legs and quickly wrapped the sheet around her body. If she crossed the line further here, it really looked like everything would start over.
“You don’t have to do that.”
“If you do it one more time, the odds will increase.”
With a short smile, the Grand Duke spread Anne’s fingers that were holding the sheet like he lifeline. He felt her body tremble as he touched her hand.
Seeing that reaction, he grabbed the rest of her fingers one by one, as if he was playing. As soon as the last little finger was pulled, the sheet that was barely holding on fell down helplessly.
The traces that had bloomed like flames on the pure white naked body were revealed. The tooth marks gathered on the chest, and the red marks that spread like fiery flowers below them. Below the navel, the blue color was clear, as if a bruise was already forming. It was the place where the Grand Duke’s grip passed through the night.
It was at that moment that the expression of the unreadable man became vague. In the meantime, Anne quickly covered her neck with the cloth she had snatched, hiding her nakedness from his scandalous gaze.
He wanted to show a little bit of guilt. But, more than that, it was because he didn’t calm down even when he saw her poor body.
The Grand Duke was silent for a moment. There was a long awkward silence, not knowing what to say when he saw this appearance, and he felt uncomfortable. The Grand Duke, who had been observing Anne’s expression, stood up.
“I’ll send the maids.”
The Grand Duke, who spoke briefly, walked over to the bedside and began to put on the clothes he had taken off. On his bare back muscles, she could see the little scratches from her gripping all night long. Even after getting her nails trimmed, there were marks she had imprinted hard at the moment of climax.
Anne turned her head. Not because she was sorry, but because she didn’t want to look at the confirmation that she had been lying under the man all night.
As the door closed tightly, a deadly stillness came. Anne then removed the sheet that had been covering her body, and carefully raised her body. Even though she only slightly moved her limbs, a soft groan escaped.
There were torn pieces of fabric that were likely to be worn by beggars here and there. She thought plain dresses were his taste, but it seems that it was his taste to rip off those dresses.
