I Was Given a Political Marriage - I Was Given a Political Marriage chapter 6
6 – Second Punishment (1)
Xian stroked her rough but scarred hand.
Startle.
Scarlett was surprised by the soft texture that was different from her own.
‘It’s soft… How can a man’s hand be this soft?’
It’s not the first time I’ve held a man’s hand, but it’s the first time I’ve felt something so soft.
She tried hard not to forget this touch.
“I’m glad to see you’re doing well. I can’t talk or send letters during vacation.”
“Yeah, I can’t even send a letter…”
It was completely unacceptable for a commoner to send a letter to a nobleman’s youngsik.
It will probably be torn to shreds or thrown away before it even arrives.
“I’m glad you seem to be doing well. Do you know how bored I was? My mother and the two tutors worked hard.”
“huh.”
“I couldn’t eat comfortably, I couldn’t meet people as I wanted. It was just too hard for me not to have freedom.”
It was also cute to see him go on talking to the side.
An angel-like smile that smiles innocently at oneself who has nothing.
It was like a blue star guiding a path at night where there was nothing.
“And marriage talk… Oh, this is nothing.”
“What, what is it? I want to hear it too.”
At the mention of marriage, that woman passed through my mind.
The face of an aristocratic woman who didn’t fight Xian’s reaction.
Scarlett became worried as hostility rose in an instant.
“As you know, I had a fiancée.”
“Yeah, I thought it was a temporary agreement because of family business.”
“Maybe the marriage discussion between the families went a little well… It seems that they even promised to get married without me knowing.”
“Huh?”
When I heard Xian’s words, my head went blank.
There was no expectation that it would lead to him, but it was because the weight of the word marriage, not engagement, was different.
“Are you really engaged? With that woman?”
“Yeah. Well, the head of the family also likes it, so it’s not particularly bad.”
Scarlett asked as her hands trembled.
“You? Do you like that girl?”
“Huh? Well, rather than good… I just don’t know.”
Xian looked at the sky for a while, sticking to his expressionless expression.
There seemed to be some unknown calmness and sadness in his appearance.
‘I don’t like it, but you’re forced to do it. My, there’s nothing I can do for you.’
Kwak.
For the first time, he felt incompetent with his status and power.
What if you were born into a better family than that woman? Or any…
Even if I had these meaningless delusions, nothing changed.
He is still a knight cadet from a commoner, and he is a nobleman, Young-sik, who will marry a higher nobleman.
“But, well, it’s not bad. Scarlett? Are you okay? Your complexion…”
“Oh, it’s nothing. It’s a bit cold, so I’ll go first.”
Scarlett then left to clear her mind.
He moved with helplessness and despondency as the driving force, but soon his footsteps stopped like an engine soaked in seawater.
“Oh, no.”
For some reason, my eyes are blurry. Maybe it will be chilly tonight too?
***
After parting with Scarlett, Xian slowly went back to the dorm, probably feeling cold.
When I went back to my room, Eileen, who had finished the paperwork first, was waiting for me.
“I guess you finished your work first? You have a lot of free time.”
“A little bit of paperwork is all it takes. I thought it would come sooner rather than later, isn’t it?”
Sitting on the sofa reading a book, she looked up at me for a moment.
“I met a friend. It’s been a while, so it took a while?”
“Is it a girl?”
“No man.”
‘If I called her a woman for no reason, I might get bullied again.’
Looking at the teeth marks that still remained, it felt like the nightmare of that day was reliving.
Red eyes close to madness. Fresh blood flowed from his white teeth.
Because that smile, which was elegant but frightening, was instinctively rejected.
“lie.”
widely.
Red eyes met after the thick book was closed.
“Sian, are you lying to your wife?”
Eileen slowly stood up and buried her head in his shoulder as if questioning him and hugged him.
Soft body and fragrant picking. A cool voice echoed through them.
“…sorry.”
“What, did you really lie?”
“ah.”
I was so surprised that I could not have imagined that what I agreed to was bluffing.
Scarlett gave strength to the arms she embraced in response to my reaction.
Gradually, his face began to frown at the force emanating from the arms wrapped around his waist.
“That commoner again, huh?”
“…”
“answer.”
Took. A white tooth hung over his neck before he knew it.
At that moment, Xian broke out in a cold sweat and closed his eyes.
It was a kind of warning. It is a warning to answer well because this tender neck can be torn off at any time.
“That’s right. But we never met as women. Because we’re friends…”
“A friend.”
I spit out the word friend several times on my lips and closed my eyes as if savoring it.
“So you’re a woman.”
“uh?”
“What did I say last time? Didn’t I tell you not to talk to women? It’s already the second time today, Xian.”
Xian’s gaze met with the red eye looking down at him right in front of him.
When he noticed himself reflected in his eyes, his waist was already getting stronger.
The moment when my breath quickened and only red eyes appeared in front of my eyes.
“Even if you think about it, you’re wrong, right? The original promise wasn’t meant to be broken.”
“Ugh… gagging, my back hurts.”
“You’re going to… be punished?”
I couldn’t help but nod my head at Eileen’s gaze, which seemed to want an answer.
At that moment, the strength in her lower back was released, and her hand came under her hamstring.
“Lay down in bed.”
Took.
Xian was thrown onto the bed like luggage.
When he regained his focus in the shaky vision, a blonde woman was riding on top of him before he knew it.
coo coo coo I tried to move with all my might, but my wrists were caught and I couldn’t move.
“Sian, how much do I have to restrain you to only look at me?”
“Uh… are you going to do it again?”
“Yeah. I’ll free your hand, so take down your clothes yourself.”
Hands free again. But he did not use that freedom to escape.
He slowly lowered his collar, only making the collarbone and white neck stand out.
Eileen satisfactorily looks at the traces of the night a few days ago, the tooth marks that still remain intact.
After skimming it with her thumb, she quietly brushed her hair and lowered her head.
“Whoa…now you can take it off on your own? Good job.”
“…”
She quietly touched her white skin like white jade silk, then slowly brought her lips together.
side. Red marks carved with mild pain.
Since the skin is sensitive, even the slightest touch left traces on it.
“Since it’s so pretty and precious, do flying insects keep sticking to it? Oh… should I just confine it?”
“no…”
“Don’t you like it? Ang, Xian, remember this feeling well.”
My body recoils with the familiar pain in my collarbone.
“I don’t know when it will be, but if you become blind, remember me with this pain. And always whisper that I love you Eileen.”
“Ah…!”
“What did I say?”
I clenched my teeth and closed my eyes at the intense pain I felt in my collarbone.
The words that kept asking me what he said in my ears, while suffering the familiar pain in my heart, forced them to imprint them in my mind.
“Eileen, I love you.”
“Nice job. Side♡ It might hurt more next time, so be careful Xian. I’m a jealous girl.”
“huh…”
As the pain gradually faded, she warmly wrapped her face and body in a hug.
Holding you in a soft and warm embrace, repeating the words that I still love you.
Tonight, too, I fall in love with her.
“I love you Xian.”
“..”
“answer.”
“me too.”
Whoops. As if he was satisfied with this, he smiled like a bright child.
He still hugs me, strokes my hair, and puts his hand on my waist.
The two slowly fall asleep and quietly close their eyes.
Aileen closed her eyes comfortably, as if she was both satisfied and happy, and Xian, who was sick but fell asleep quickly, as if she liked being in a warm embrace.
The two of them walked slowly toward the land of dreams, sharing each other’s warmth on a dark night.

“It’s okay, it hurts.”
“Does it look good?”
“It’s hard to cover up.”
Xian, who was changing his clothes while looking at the mirror, paid attention to his eyes and concentrated all his attention.
Fortunately, the reddened skin and teeth marks were barely covered and the preparations were completed quietly.
“The skin care I’ve received so far… it’s become like this.”
I was saddened to think that this was the result of the skin care I had received as part of the groom’s class.
‘If you take care of it, it bites and leaves a trace, otherwise it’s a kiss mark.’
“Should I go to the lecture?”
When he said it quietly as if it was difficult, Eileen, who was caressing his hair next to him, whispered.
“Anyway, since you’re in the same class as me, let’s talk together.”
“I hate that more.”
“I’m fine Xian.”
I hate to listen to economics lectures, but to listen to them with my fiancé, isn’t this hell?
Xian slowly headed towards the classroom and looked at the world outside the window for a while.
‘Is it the Knights Faculty?’
He saw the morning training of a knight faculty different from Eileen and himself.
Red hair that was sweating profusely and out of breath in between the women who were training hard.
Facing a familiar face, Xian quietly cheered with a strange smile and heart.
“Everyone works hard.”
“What are you doing not going? Let’s go quickly, Xian.”
Looking at his fiancée embracing his arm, he walked back on his way.
I hate classes, but I have to work hard.
The two of them also entered the gap between the people walking quietly.
