Chapter 1

Twisted Engagement (1)

“Hngh, ah! Ah…. ahngh!”

With every thrust he made came a squishy sound as he shoved his penis in and out of her. Rowena lifted her waist, not bothering to hide her flushed face.

“Ngh! Ah…!”

Cecil, who was stroking Rowena’s thigh as she lay stretched out on the bed, looked at their groins with a deep smile.

His penis glistened, dripping wet with  Rowena’s juices. The delicate hole opened wide to take the full length of his penis that seemed too big to fit.

Cecil laughed, thinking how he had never seen anything more spectacular than this.

“Rowena, can you still take it? Looks like I’ll have to work harder.”

As he spoke, he flicked her dripping wet clit with his fingers. Rowena collapsed with a loud moan as an orgasm rocked her entire body.

“Hngh! Ahngh…”

Cecil smiled as Rowena’s body quivered underneath him.

“What? Did you come before me?”

“Hm? Rowena.”

Cecil whispered to her as he fiddled with her clit, spreading her juices around. Rowena shook her head as the intense pleasure overwhelmed her.

“N-no… I didn’t. Mhm, there…. Ahngh!”

As soon as the words left her lips, Cecil pushed through her soaking wet folds  again. Rowena sobbed as his penis pierced through her insides. She felt like she was about to die.

“Rowena, your back is stiff. You have to move it.”

“Ah, put it there…. p-please….! Ngh….”

He moved gently but she felt as if she was melting. She didn’t expect that he could still go deeper into her.

Cecil smiled and glanced at the hourglass placed at the bedside. It was about to drop the last grain of sand.

“Hm. Time’s up.”

“Yes? Ah?!”

As soon as the last grain of sand fell, Cecil raised himself up. Rowena immediately looked up from underneath him.

Cecil smirked, grabbed Rowena’s ass and rubbed his penis against the slimy crack in between.

“Ahngh…”

“As punishment, I’ll let you go for an hour. You’re my bedroom teacher, right?”

If you can’t do this, you should be punished.

“Ah, no! Ah, hngh! Ngh! Ahng! Ah, ah, ah, ahh!”

Rowena’s body shook back and forth as he pounded violently against her hips. Her mouth fell open at the feeling of his huge penis filling her up.

Cecil quickly covered Rowena’s mouth with his and pushed his tongue in.

“Ugh, heup! Heuk, ahnghh!”

Rowena struggled as both her openings were filled up. The pleasure was so intense, it was driving her crazy. Cecil seemed indifferent as he rammed into her with reckless abandon.

“This isn’t it…. “

This was most definitely not the marriage she had expected.

***

Four months ago.

Rowena knew how strange her appearance would be.

Throughout her life as Lyria’s friend, she had been known as Lady Wenson’s handmaiden, or the ignorant lady who couldn’t tell when to speak.

However, Lyria had a weak heart, and her little friend Rowena was often forced to speak on her behalf.

Like just now.

“Your Highness, crown prince. Can you spare me a moment of your time? It’s about my friend Lyria.”

Rowena lifted the hem of her dress and greeted him elegantly, but her appearance somehow bore some semblance to that of a knight.

Cecil, who was talking with a friend at the banquet, turned to look at Rowena.

He was a prince with a cold heart. The only child of the old emperor, and he was raised with much care. However, even that could not soften his sharp disposition.

The emperor was glad that he resembled him. The emperor was valiant, cruel and not afraid to see blood.

Cecil glanced over Rowena’s figure once with a blatant gaze, then stood up.

“Let’s do that then. Are you going to talk here?”

“I wish to converse in a quieter place.”

Seeing Rowena’s confident appearance, some of the young girls started to gossip. Some whispered that the young lady was not afraid.

“Sure. This had better be something interesting. I don’t plan to waste my time.”

At Cecil’s words, Rowena clutched the hem of her dress, gulped and answered.

“……I’ll try.”

***

The banquet hall was connected to the garden by a glass door. Rowena, who had attended banquets in this mansion numerous times, knew the way to the rose garden. Cecil followed her through the garden quietly, as he looked at her suspiciously.

“…. This should be quiet enough. Tell me what you want to say now.”

It was a place where she wanted to completely distance them from people’s gazes, voices, and spying. Cecil spoke in a nonchalant tone and turned around to face her.

Rowena, who was three or four paces away from him, suddenly knelt down.

Flop

The hem of the dress was spread over a well-polished lawn. Cecil frowned without any sign of surprise.

“What are you doing?”

“Your Highness, please reconsider your engagement with my friend, Lyria!”

Lyria was one of Cecil’s fiancée candidates. Since the results were sent to her the previous day, she may have told Rowena too.

“Why?”

“L-Lyria has someone dear to her.”

In fact, she had a lover, but she felt not to disclose that information. The position of Lyria’s lover, Kian, would be compromised.

“Because he is someone she has a crush on… She doesn’t wish to be engaged.”

“The Marquis doesn’t know. Lyria was struggling with her own thoughts.”

“Then did the lady herself ask you to tell me about it?”

Even if she had a lover, it was something she could keep hidden and still get married because she was up against the only crown prince of the Empire. Rowena wouldn’t have done this if Lyria hadn’t cried out and clung to her.

“I am afraid of him. He is so cold… If I could speak, I think he would stare at me coldly. I can’t even say a word in front of him.”

It was true that Cecil, with his blue-black hair and blue eyes, looked cold. But Rowena believed that he was the one she could talk to.

“Y-yes.”

“It’s absurd. You mean you asked for it even though you knew the rumors about me?”

Rowena froze and raised her eyebrows. She had heard the rumors about the prince.

Did they say, bloody killer?

So, despite his attractive appearance, many young girls were afraid of him. In fact, there was a case where the crown prince beheaded someone at a party, and several ladies passed out.

“You foolishly thought I would grant that request.”

“Because you’re not someone who will harm people for no reason.”

As soon as she spoke those words, she heard the swish of a blade. Rowena froze, staring at the sword that glowed blue in the moonlight.

“Have I just been told that my fiancée doesn’t want me? Contrary to your expectations, young lady, I’m not a very good-tempered person.”

Rowena gulped saliva as Cecil answered with a stern face. He continued speaking in a low tone.

“Ah. By the way, you’re in a good position for me to slash your head, yes. Did you foresee my reaction?”

“Oh, no! I’m on my knees to apologize on my friend’s behalf.”

“Yes? Instead of an apology… Do you think that the sin of disrespecting the royal family will be erased simply because you bent the knee to the crown prince? Most nobles should kneel when they see me.”

Cecil answered. As she stared into the sharp end of the shining blade, Rowena broke out in a cold sweat and shook her head.

“There must be a way to change Your Highness’s mind other than beheading me.”

“I’ll give you a chance to say what it is.”

“Y-Yes!”

“Three minutes.”

“How generous!”

Rowena cleared her throat lightly and spoke in a quick, high tone. She did so because she was nervous and there was a time limit, also so that he could hear her properly.

“Y-you are scary but also very handsome! There is someone in the world who is right for you So it’s not because my friend is afraid of Your Highness! It would be good for both of you if you go your separate ways and meet your loved ones?”

“……”

D-did it work?

Rowena carefully studied Cecil’s eyes.

Staying indifferent like that, huh? Did I just waste my time talking like that?!

All he had to do was swing his sword, and her head would roll away.

“You can’t speak smoothly.”

“I-I’m sorry.”

Surprisingly, it wasn’t an angry face, but Cecil looked at Rowena with a frown.

“At the end of the day, everyone keeps saying that they have a soulmate, but that’s a naive mindset. I am the crown prince, and soon I will become the Emperor. Do you think I will find a fiancée by checking the reactions of the young girls?”

“But since you are looking for someone who will be your companion for the rest of your life, isn’t it right to do so? It is someone who you will spend the rest of your life with, the crown princess.”

“Well, most young girls are afraid of me. It would make sense to search for one….”

As Cecil continued his speech, it suddenly occurred to him that he had been talking to Rowena for quite some time. He even had a sword in his hand.
