Chapter 325 (1/2)

Yes, you were a woman like this, a doll-like woman made only for the emperor.

All right, as you treated me like a stallion, let me sow a seed for you.

I laughed coldly, hugging her cold body. I sneered at her, who stiffened at the moment.

Why are you trembling when I want to have sex with you as you wish? Don’t you want it? Do you feel it’s terrible to have sex with a man with a commoner’s blood?

Well, what can I do? This is my reality. You are made for the emperor, anyway. You can sleep with anybody as long as he wears the crown of the emperor, right?

Though she got frozen and bit her lips tightly in pain, she didn’t resist when I forced her to make love. Watching tears coming from her closed eyes, I twisted my mouth.

Damn it. Do you really want to give birth to a baby boy who could be the crown prince? Do you want the baby so much that you had sex with a man you didn’t love and you despised so much?

Even when I was confused with this kind of thought, my body soaked in sexual pleasure was faithful to its mission. Only after I ejaculated did I get disillusioned with her. What did I do now? How come I had sex with another woman when I had a beloved woman?

When I thought that the noble faction might take issue with this, my head began to throb.

I was giddy with the thought of Jiun crying when she discovered this. And…

I hurriedly raised my body and put on my clothes. I didn’t have the heart to look back. But I flinched when I saw her through the gap of the closed door.

Are you crying now? Wasn’t this what you wanted? Didn’t you use the pro-emperor faction to put pressure on me to sleep with you, so you could give birth to the next emperor? Then, why are you crying? Why are you so sad?

Oh, I see. You were upset because you had sex with a man with a commoner’s blood, right? Did it offend your noble pride so much? Was that the reason?

Gnashing my teeth, I turned around, but after a few days, I visited her palace again because I felt ill at ease. And I was angry at myself because I felt guilty even for a moment.

As usual, she took off her clothes with indifference. I gave a hollow smile at her. I felt bitter when she didn’t even moan when I hugged her cold body roughly.

Oh, I see. I was foolish enough to think she had emotions when she would only fulfil her duty when needed.

I glanced at Jiun who confessed, blushing. I felt something strange. If I’ve got a woman that I love, isn’t it normal that I should be happy as if I owned the whole world?

But, strangely enough, I wasn’t as happy as I thought. I felt gratified, but I wasn’t as happy as if I had the whole world. I found there was something lacking even though I had what I wanted.

Did I not love her then?

Suddenly such a question came to my mind, but I hurriedly shook my head. No way, that’s impossible! Who else could I love without this woman who cared about me only?

Watching her black eyes trembling anxiously, I made a forced smile at her. Ignoring my growing doubt about my love for her, I whispered into her ears that I loved her. Then I ordered them to hold a grand banquet to prove my affection for her.

There was joy in Duke Lars’s eyes, who came to see me to congratulate Lady Monique’s pregnancy.

I nodded calmly because I knew she would get pregnant one day.
