Their journey was unexpectedly smooth, and they managed to reach the northern border in five days, but because of the two sick passengers, the carriage moved slowly.

Although it was January, the winter had been quite warm this year. If they were careful, they’d be able to pass through Mount Paran with no major issues.

They would arrive at Yeha tomorrow.

Yujo’s heart raced inside her chest. It was almost painful, but she couldn’t calm down. Tomorrow, she would don men’s clothing and finish their journey on horseback. If possible, she wanted to race back to him, but that wasn’t possible.

Her brother and the guibin had basically been lying inside the carriage for the entire journey. To keep the cold air from entering inside, the interior walls of the carriage were covered in cotton blankets. They even installed a small brazier inside.

“You should get some rest, too.”

Yuha spoke worriedly from his bed. He felt as if he was a burden his young sister had to bear, and he felt incredibly uncomfortable.

“I am resting.”

“What do you mean? You’re not eating your meals properly, and I know you’re barely getting any sleep.”

“I think I’m just nervous.”

Yujo laughed softly as she handed her brother his medicine. She was really grateful for Duke HyoEun. He had sent them off with more than enough equipment and people, so they were able to have a smooth journey.

All the people that they had met along the way were all sent by Duke HyoEun, and they seemed to be connected to the Nine Families. They all had fierce eyes and were very meticulous about their work.

How did this organization function?

She had heard that the Northern Nine Families all moved with the Paran priestess at their center. Although the empire had already fallen, these people still believed in the ancient ways. They believed that one day, a powerful priestess with immense divine power would come and rebuild the old Paran once again.

She was prophesied to be a pure maiden with a fierce soul, and she would become Paran’s queen. She would hold all ten seals within her grasp and rebuild the northern nation. By doing so, she would bring peace and freedom to the land once more.

Yujo shook her head. How could anyone believe such a ridiculous prophecy? The divine nation had long collapsed hundreds of years ago, but she could still feel the tenacity and patience of all these people . It was quite amazing.

After checking on the guibin, Yujo returned to her room. Her body was frozen from the cold air, and she was covered in dust and smelled like horses.

She requested some hot water and took a bath for the first time in a long while. She meticulously washed her hair. She wanted to enter the land of Yeha with a clean body.

As the night deepened, the air grew cold. She opened a window and saw that the sky was filled with stars. Far off in the distance, she could see the shadowy outline of Mount Paran standing like a great giant. The mountain’s peak seemed to pierce the cold, white moon. The wind whistled as it blew past the mountain.

After looking at the landscape for a long time, Yujo began to close the window. Suddenly, she had a strange feeling.

This is…

Yujo froze and continued to stare out the window. On top of a roof, she saw a dark shadow watching her.

A thick pelt was draped around his neck. His black hair fluttered in the wind. She could clearly see the sharp eyes piercing through her in the darkness. Yujo merely stared at him. And he merely stared back at her.

Everything was over. No, actually, everything shouldn’t have begun in the first place.

She needed to close the window. She needed to lower the curtains right now. She mustn’t make any more memories. She mustn’t even see him in her dreams.

Think about what he did to you. Think about everything that happened that night. They gave each other deep wounds, and they both couldn’t forgive each other.

But she couldn’t close it. Although she hated him, she couldn’t stop it.

Like a black panther, he entered through the window. He smelled like the cold wind. He had probably raced over here on his horse.

Yujo was pushed back against a wall. She opened her lips and welcomed his fierce kiss. He didn’t say a word. But what needed to be said? What could they say?

A cold hand reached into her bosom. A shiver ran down her chest and stomach. However, Yujo didn’t try to escape. Just this once… Just one more time… She wanted to embrace this man.

The tears dripping out of her eyes didn’t matter. Their rough kisses didn’t matter. He pushed his way in and began to undo her clothes. His movements grew rough. It all didn’t matter anymore.

I hate you. I hate myself.

But I don’t want to leave you.

Aah, she really didn’t want to leave him like this.

But how could she tell him that?

His arms wrapped around her so tightly that she could barely breathe. The anger and sadness inside of him along with the emperor’s command that he stay away from her… None of it held him back in this moment. His guilt and rage… The rejection and jealousy… None of it mattered anymore.

He just didn’t want to let her go. And she didn’t want to abandon him. If they parted like this, they would never meet again. They didn’t want to waste any time.

His coat fell to the floor. Her thin nightclothes followed.

At one point, the moonlight settled on top of the man’s back.

They were standing so close that the cold wind couldn’t travel between them. His hand grasped her bottom and lifted her up. With her back against the wall, Yujo opened her legs.

The man’s cock plunged into her insufficiently wet entrance, but Yujo didn’t make a sound. Even if her whole body ripped apart and was destroyed, she still wanted this man.

She endured the pain and held onto him with a tight grasp. She widened her legs before wrapping them around his hips.

Garan suddenly stopped moving.

He was inside her. Their chests were pressed up against each other, and he could feel their heartbeats racing. He wrapped his arms around her hips and took a step back.

Feeling him move inside her, Yujo let out a soft moan. She raised her head with much difficulty and looked into his eyes.

The blue moonlight filled the room. This woman who held him inside her was so beautiful. Her black hair was gathered over her shoulder and fell down like a waterfall. Her dark blue eyes were only looking at him.

“Yujo.”

He called her by her name for the first time.

Her eyes grew warm. Tears pooled along the rim before falling down without any hesitation. Yujo didn’t want to cry at this moment, so she laughed. Her watery smile was filled with genuine happiness for the first time.

‘Garan.”

She called him.

He lowered his lips onto hers. She opened her mouth and bit him. They rubbed and sucked as they tangled together. His lips, his breaths… Everything about him was so lovable.

How did I come to meet someone like you?

She was drawn to him by some indescribable force, and she ended up embracing a man she didn’t want. No matter how much time had passed, she’d never forget him.

She felt the bed press up against her back. She felt this man’s scorching body against her skin. He pressed his lips against her forehead. She pressed her soft lips against his eyes and nose before lightly brushing them against his lips. While she did this, he continued to rock into her, the most ancient rhythm of all time.

Their bodies stuck together, and their limbs were tangled around each other. Yujo lost herself. She followed his rhythm and began to rock her own body against his. Their bodies fiercely came together and parted only to want more.

The movements grew faster. They couldn’t recognize the moans leaving their mouths. They tightly grabbed onto one another as if they were trying not to lose the other in the deep, dark waters.

I love you.

Yujo whispered in her heart.

I love you, my Red King.

They were on fire. It was as if they were drowning in lava. The scorching fire flowed down their bodies and swallowed her shoulders and chest.

It traveled down her lower stomach to the warmth between her thighs. It enveloped their lips and his cheek, his disheveled black hair and his undulating hips, before traveling down the contracting muscles of his thighs.

They were surrounded by fire. They melted and mixed together.

A soaring fire bloomed before it flowed inside her.

Yujo tightly shut her eyes.

Had dawn arrived?

A faint light glimmered from the closed window. The chickens roaming freely at the inn were roosting and began to cry out. Thanks to them, she began to hear the whispers of the men as they got up to work.

Yujo’s eyes flickered, but she didn’t move a muscle.

Her back was hot and he was still inside her. Because her body was much smaller than his, she could feel his presence a lot more clearly.

Her mouth was dry, but she tried to swallow. Once he caught her, he’d never let go until the very end. This behavior of his was still the same. Because he had pinned her down all night long, her body felt stiff like wet cotton.

I really need to go now…

They needed to pass through Mount Paran today.

She carefully pulled away and felt him pull out of her body. Yujo gasped at the sensation. She couldn’t keep lying down like this.

She carefully got up. Her legs trembled, and she couldn’t see anything in the darkness. She was more tired than when she had fought in the battlefield.

Her legs shook as she made her way to her nightclothes. As she walked, she could feel their mixed essence drip out of her entrance and trickle down her thighs.

Oh dear.

Yujo held back a moan as she bit her lips.

“Come here.”

Suddenly, she heard his voice behind her. Startled, she turned around. He was lying naked in bed as he gazed at her. His black eyes were gleaming with languid desire.

“I need to go.”

“I know. I’ll follow you over the mountain, so come here for now.”

What if the emperor finds out?

Yujo slightly frowned.

“I’ll take care of it.”

He spoke before stretching out his hand. If she denied him, he’d get up and grab her. Yujo let out a sigh and shook her head.

“I don’t think I’d be able to ride my horse.”

“Then you can just take the carriage. Why are you still standing there?”

Yujo finally began to approach him. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her to his chest before pinning her down underneath him. Yujo coyly turned her head away.

“Are you going to follow me to Yeha?”

“No way.”

“Hmph.”

Yujo avoided his lips.

“I’ll follow you up until you reach the border.”

She felt angry for some reason. As if last night had been a dream, his face was completely calm.

But what did it matter? As he once said, she was the one who was abandoning him.

As if they had agreed to it beforehand, neither of them mentioned that today was their final day together. Instead, their lips tangled once more. Unlike last night’s frantic movements, this kiss was tender.

He moved on top of her once again. Yujo moaned as she pushed him away, but it didn’t matter. His cock hardened and began to poke her lower stomach. She sighed and whined, but she felt her legs opening.

His stiff rod plunged into her swollen entrance.

Yujo sucked in a breath and shook her head. Her vision turned hazy. Her body writhed as he began to thrust into her.

His hips began to rock, and Yujo’s body slid up and down on top of the bedding.

“Uuugh.”

Yujo moaned as she closed her eyes. The scorching pleasure spread out to her fingertips and toes. No matter how much she tried to stop it, it was no use. Where did this intense ecstasy come from?

During all their endless movements, the sun began to rise. Yujo desperately wanted him to finish, so she gathered her strength and tightened her legs around his hips. However, his thrusting hips didn’t slow down.

“Aaah, Garan.”

At Yujo’s cry, Garan happily latched onto her nipple. Yujo felt as if she were soaring in the sky. As she reached her climax, she was filled with joy and dread. She bit down onto his shoulder.

He felt as if he was losing his mind. HisHis hands squeezed her bottom as he fiercely rammed his hips into hers. Yujo threw her head back and saw the sun shining outside.

Suddenly, the Red King froze, and she could feel his hot seed spurting inside her.

Yujo grasped his back and shuddered.

At that moment, she had a premonition. She felt that they had just made a child…
