These tears of joy marked a new beginning of their lives… together with each other…
They both were panting after their wonderful lovemaking. Ryu was still on top of Arya feeling her heartbeats in rhythm with his own. They were wet with sweat but neither of them wanted to part from the other as their bodies entwined in each other's embrace careless of the sweat and stickiness of their bodies.
Ryu lied down beside Arya holding her in his embrace and keeping her head on his arms he lightly caressed her hair.
Arya smiled and hid her face in his chest, her breaths landing on his chest made him aroused again and
a certain part of his body again stood all high and mighty poking at her abdomen.
Though Arya was tired and even feeling sore down there but even she wanted to have this feeling again and when she felt Ryu's hard on, she blushed and asked him.
"What is that? Do you want to do it again?" Arya murmured with a worn out yet seductive tone on Ryu's neck.
She heard him laugh and said, "Oh that is my sword. It seems that it hadn't had enough so it's poking at you like that."
Arya blushed under his neck however, she was still sore and the pain between her thighs was more palpable this time as they rested.
"Take me again Arya," Ryu said and moved towards her and tilted his head touching her chin as he began to kiss her lips once more.
His kiss was deep and demanding and his hands were searching and exploring her body with his sensual touching.
Regardless of her tired and still aching body, Arya felt the desires building inside of her as she received and answered Ryu's passionate kisses.
In the middle of their intense kissing and touching, Arya suddenly felt something weird between her thighs. There was too much wetness down there…
'Is it because of his release inside me that I am feeling this way?'
And then again she felt something gushing out from down there… 'oops! Is it….."
Her eyes widened as she gently pushed Ryu to stop.
"What's the matter?" Ryu voiced out hoarsely as his misty eyes stared at Arya closely.
"Wait, I think there's something… Uhm I will check first…" she said and picked a sheet from the bed, wrapped on herself then she quickly ran towards the bathroom.
Ryu sat up on the bed and smiled when he saw her bashfulness even after all this time spent with each other, while he waited to understand why she ran away like that. He was alarmed to see a lot of blood on the bed sheet.
He was stupefied while he stared blankly at the blood stain. 'Did I overdo it? Was I too rough with her? Is it because this was her first…? But…How come there's so much of blood?' He thought worriedly.
Then he quickly stood up to go in the bathroom but the door was locked.
"Arya, are you alright? What's going on?" Ryu asked in full concern. He was so worried. He heard the water gushing inside so he knocked louder when he heard no response from Arya.
"Arya, open the door please. Are you alright?" he asked while he continued to knock.
The sounds of water flowing finally stopped and Arya opened the door with an awkward apologetic look on her face while she looked at him.
"I think I started with my periods just now," Arya murmured timidly.
'What? Periods, suddenly?'
Ryu let out a deep long sigh he was relieved on hearing it was because of the menstrual cycle, else he was feeling guilty of having hurt Arya and made her bleed because of his passion.
'Now what about me? Someone reminded Ryu'
Arya was also feeling awkward on not being able to satiate her beloved husband on their first night because of her periods.
Arya's eyes went down while she bit her lip.
"Is it still up?" she muttered innocently while staring at his baton that was still erected.
Ryu scratched his head then cursed while he creased his forehead as he looked down at his erect little brother down there.
Arya laughed out loud seeing the pitiful expression of Ryu as he exhaled loudly.
Technically, this was their first night; first nights are supposed to be whole night affair… not a single time stunt... but… uhmff… we shall have to wait now…
'Is it a first night or morning? Today is the first time my husband and I consummated our marriage…'
'Yes… Husband… I am married… Our marriage is registered already; we are a married couple and legally wedded under the law.'
She chuckled inside and felt happy to the core of her heart.
'I am officially Mrs. Ken now, wife of Ryu Ken.'
Arya was too delightful just at the thought of being a wife to Ryu.
A wicked smile plastered on her face. She knew Ryu could last several times had she not been blocked by periods, so she wanted to help him out and please him at the same time.
"Come here, I'll take care of that." she said expressively before she pulled Ryu inside their bathroom and helped him with his erection to release his load.

"You know the girl right? What do you think of her?" Elder Master Ken asked while he blew smoke from his cigar.
He was walking in the exquisite Garden of his grand mansion with Butler Omni.
"She is a nice and charming lady. I think that you have already had her background checked Elder Master." Butler Omni replied as he fanned out the smoke of cigar from his face.
"Yeah, I did. But of course you had spent some time with her in the island and had talked to her also. You are good with your judgment about people so I will rather rely on you than those reports." Elder Master Ken said as he blew another cloud of smoke from his cigar directly to Butler Omni's face.
He laughed when Butler Omni coughed. Then he looked at the lovely flowers around him and smiled contently. He liked strolling around at his late wife's garden. It gave him peace and tranquility all the time.
Cecile was not reliable in taking care of the garden. Well, he can't blame her if she doesn't like plants and flowers unlike his late wife. He just hoped someone like her wife from the family could maintain this garden.
"I'm sure you will also like her Elder Master. She is someone who can handle and take good care of a family. She gives importance to her family above anything else." Butler Omni answered.
He was confident that Arya will be accepted at the Ken's Mansion. But of course, she had to undergo for the usual initiation from the Elder and the rest of the family.
It was part of the family tradition so whoever entered the Ken Family will become strong and will not feel small at all. Butler Omni was confident Arya will make it through though.
"I like tough headed woman. Let's see how sturdy that one can be." Elder Master Ken simpered.
Then he added, "The Field Marshall's daughter seemed to be a good option too. I actually had a lineup of several excellent girls as blind dates for him. However, Ryu has already made his choice."
Elder Master Ken released a long deep sigh.
He had promised not to interfere anymore with the personal lives of his family ever since the death of his wife Livy and he intended to keep that promise.
He just hoped Ryu had made the right choice.
