He placed his hand on his chest. His heart was beating irregularly and erratically, as if it was anxious. Clearly, it was something within his own body, but this heart trembled with anxiety, completely different from his will. Kung, kung, kung, that heart felt as if it was something separate from him. No, from the start, he felt detached from this space. It was something he was experiencing for the first time.

“I will try not to have a relationship with Jason again if possible.”

She said that and turned her head slightly. She was being cold. Once again, Jason’s heart raced erratically. Jason shook his head, denying her denial. No, that couldn’t be. She was his. His female, and the person who would become his mate. She didn’t know, but from the moment they were intimate, he had a premonition that he would dedicate his whole life to her. He would probably only want her, though he didn’t know for sure.

“How, how do you know that? Huh? You liked it earlier. Isn’t it possible that you could be into me too? Then I,”

“I am in love with someone else.”

Kung. This time, something like a boulder fell. Jason lost his words at that distinct sensation. The woman who was still holding his thing, and who was now in his arms, said that she loved someone else. She was rejecting him. He was experiencing heartbreak for the first time in his life, one right after another, from a woman. He had only met her for a day, but he couldn’t understand why his heart was so broken and malfunctioning.

“S**t.”

Jason grabbed Roina’s shoulders, pushed her down, and climbed on top of her. He was looking down at her with intense eyes. As he moved, the hard male organ inside her stimulated her. This time, even Roina couldn’t help but let out a moan, “Eung-“. At that sight, Jason felt aroused again, and at the thought that she was forbidden to him, he also felt like he couldn’t do anything. Everything about her was a first for him. He was tormented by unfamiliar emotions.

“Still,”

He tried to say something but paused for a moment, as if his words were stuck. Anything he said here would be inappropriate, but he couldn’t say nothing. He couldn’t lose her. His instincts were telling him that. She was his. His only female. Please, please don’t leave me. Your scent is all over me like this. How can you go to someone else? A painful groan flowed out on its own.

“Still, huh? You might end up loving me instead of that person.”

Roina, still turned away, didn’t look at him. It was a silent refusal. Damn it, he bit down on his words again. Why, why? Heartlessly, God had designated someone with a partner as his destined one. He resented her so much for looking at a place completely different from him.

“Don’t decide now. Huh? You’re mine right now. Just for a moment, just stay like this for a moment.”

The last part was almost a plea. He placed clumsy kisses all over her body with his clumsy lips. Her neck, earlobes, her cleavage, peaks, and fingers. Everywhere on her. It was a courtship of kisses.

However, Roina tightly closed her eyes and, in the end, didn’t turn back to him.

The two were only able to separate after a long time like that.

“What? You can’t reach the Archmage?”

At Yoseph’s question, the aide nodded with an uneasy face.

Where did he go without leaving any word? Yoseph swept back his hair nervously. By now, it was long overdue for the Archmage to contact them again. He tapped the floor impatiently with his toes.

“There’s someone who saw the Archmage!”

At that moment, a knight stepped forward and said to him. It was a knight who had been inquiring about the closest places to the Imperial Palace. As Yoseph looked in that direction, a trainee knight, seemingly a subordinate of that knight, came forward with a somewhat unsure attitude.

“The Archmage went to the Imperial Palace. He sent me to bring a formal invitation.”

He said that and looked towards the Imperial Palace. The Imperial Palace of the Kailum Empire stood there in the middle of the capital in a dazzlingly resplendent state.

“Why? The New Year’s banquet is tomorrow, and… The visit to the Imperial Palace was put off due to the search for Lady Roina.”

“That, well, he seems to have thought that Lady Roina was at the Imperial Palace.”

They’ve gone in different directions. Yoseph rubbed his forehead at the trainee knight’s hesitant words. He thought he could finally get some proper rest, but a new incident had occurred.
