Chapter 312 - The Destia Siblings (1) (1/2)
I was able to take a refreshing nap all afternoon after eating lunch. When I woke up, the sky was turning red orange and the sun was just about to set. Regaleon was sitting by my side reading a book.
”Did you get a good sleep?” Regaleon asked with a smile.
”Yes, I feel refreshed after taking the afternoon nap.” I replied with a smile. ”Where did you get the book?” I asked out of curiosity.
I have thought that maybe Regaleon left our room when I was asleep. Then he thought of him meeting Deborah by chance made me feel irritated in some way. I know that Regaleon loves me and is a loyal husband, but I cannot stop women such as Deborah to try to get close and seduce him. That is what makes me feel irritated.
”If you are thinking that I left when you were asleep, then you are mistaken.” Regaleon smiled sweetly at me.
”H-How did you…” I was about to ask how did Regaleon knew what I thought but I sighed and smiled. I am happy that Regaleon understands me to this extent.
”That is because I can see the scowl on your face. And here… you have a crease.” Regaleon rubbed the space in between my eyebrows. ”Do not worry, I did not leave this room when you were sleeping. I stayed inside all this time. This book… I saw took it from the bookshelf there.” He gestured over the side where a small bookshelf was located.
I felt embarrassed that my thoughts were seen through. ”S-Sorry for thinking such things. I can not but help feel getting irritated if a woman tries to get near you with such thoughts.”
”It is okay.” Regaleon pulled me into his embrace. ”As my wife, you are entitled to get irritated and angry with women who tries get near me with such unpleasant thoughts. I will gladly let you punish them.” He pressed his lips on my forehead.
I am happy with Regaleon's every word, but I was a little bit dissatisfied. After the battle with the sirens, Regaleon has not touched me beyond light kisses either in my forehead or cheeks. At first, I was thankful because I always felt fatigued and worn out in our travels. But now I am fully rested, I am hoping for something more.
”What is the matter my love?” Regaleon might have seen the scowl on my face.
I looked at his intently. I cannot believe that I was yearning for his lips, as if I were thirsty for them. The mood around us was just right. I thought of having the initiative to kiss him first.
I slowly closed the gap between us and closed my eyes. My lips had found his and was now feeling its heat. At first it was just a light peck, but I was not satisfied and deepened the kiss.
”Hmmhh.” Regaleon m.o.a.ned. His arms that was already wrapped around my waist pulled me even closer to him.
My body felt hot and wanting. Regaleon's arms started to explore my body, gently caressing along the way. Our kiss became breathless, our tongues intertwined.
When we parted our lips, we were both catching our breath. Regaleon's face was flushed, and I bet mine was as well.
”My love… let us not take things further.” Regaleon said with gentleness. ”I am hardly trying to contain myself now.”
”B-But why?” I asked doubtful. ”I want you.” I said with yearning.
”Me too my love.” Regaleon caressed my cheeks with his thumb. ”But Anatalia said that we should abstain in the first trimester of your pregnancy. I do not want anything to happy to you or our baby.” He sighed.
I was awakened from my inner desires after hearing Regaleon's reason. It is true that abstinence should be practiced in the first trimester of the pregnancy. It was also included in the bridal lessons I took.
'Why did I not remember such an important information.' I scolded myself.
Maybe because I never thought of having a child this early. I thought that my marriage my marriage with Regaleon would be done after the war ends. Me conceiving was not planned at all.
”I-I am sorry. I forgot that piece of information.” I said with embarrassment. ”Umm, are you okay? Does it not hurt?” I asked.
Regaleon's manhood was evidently bulging under his trousers. I also learned that men could feel pain if it were not released, and it was the job of a wife to help her husband as the bridal lessons taught me.
”I am fine.” Regaleon said. ”I can manage. Just stay here and rest okay.” Regaleon parted with a kiss on my forehead and walked towards the bathroom.
I felt guilty letting Regaleon endure such a thing. I should be careful not to entice him so much.
'But what about me?' I thought to myself. I also felt hot inside my body.

Before the sun had set, our group that continued to travel in horseback had arrived in Duke Destia's estate. They were properly greeted and was shown to their respective rooms to rest.
Duke Destia sent word to our room later that evening that he had prepared a feast for dinner. It was welcome us and our group's arrival.
