Chapter 1 – 【 The Princess’s Preference 】 (Part 4)

As Yuria’s eyes sharpened, he sneered.

“You know it’s an insult when a woman tries to set up a separate household with another man in a scenic villa while her husband is still very much alive.”

His sarcastic tone was unpleasant, but it wasn’t the time to argue about it. Yuria shook her head. He was greatly misunderstanding.

“Why did you ask to bring the jewels? Were you planning to sell them to furnish the house?”

“No, you’re misunderstanding something—”

“Misunderstanding?”

Cedric, who had been tapping the map with his fingers in displ*asure, turned to Yuria. As he took a step closer, Yuria flinched involuntarily.

“No need to make excuses. It’s not like you’re the only married woman having an affair.”

Even in Ritano alone, there are many, Cedric kept muttering incomprehensible words.

“But among them, there’s no woman who doesn’t know her husband’s c*ck.”

“Wh-what are you….”

Hearing such a vulgar word for the first time in her life, she stumbled momentarily, and his rough hand immediately grabbed her arm.

“In that sense, you’re quite shameless, Princess.”

“Who was it that rejected me on the wedding night…?”

Momentarily flaring up and retorting, Yuria soon closed her lips. Saying such things without any pride. Covering her mouth with her hand, she avoided Cedric’s gaze and stepped back. She had barely taken a step back when he grabbed her waist and lifted her onto the table.

Yuria, who ended up sitting on the map, screamed sharply. Before she could do anything, he pushed between her legs, making it difficult for her to get off the table. Facing his broad chest that blocked her view, Yuria bit the soft flesh inside her mouth.

Just being seated on the table made her heart pound. Now that she thought about it, she hadn’t been this close to him since they walked arm in arm at their wedding. As she timidly looked up, her eyes met Cedric’s, who was looking down at her.

In his usually emotionless black eyes, anger flickered. He could tolerate an affair, but not a separate household. Yuria was not entirely clueless and sensed what he intended to do. He seemed to be trying to consummate the long-delayed marriage out of spite.

Is this the last chance? 

She swallowed dryly. 

Is he trying to see if we can physically match before considering divorce? 

If she behaved well now, he might reconsider their marriage. No matter how capable Cedric was, a divorce with royalty would be troublesome and annoying for him too.

So maybe, just maybe, he was giving her one last chance. If she accepted him quietly and behaved properly in the future, he might let it slide. Yuria stopped struggling. Not that she had been resisting fiercely in the first place.

Given that he was angry, it wouldn’t be a gentle and intimate act. But she had already braced herself for that when she planned to drug him and force herself on him.

“Yeah, come to think of it, it’s my fault too. If I had given you my c*ck as a husband’s duty earlier, you wouldn’t have done such a shameless thing, Princess.”

Even though she had braced herself, she couldn’t get used to the vulgar words coming from Cedric’s mouth. She had never heard anyone say such things to her face, so she didn’t know how to respond.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? Did you secretly think so too, Princess?”

Honestly, she did. If he had suggested consummation two more times, she wouldn’t have refused, even if reluctantly. But Yuria’s lips said otherwise.

“…That’s not true.”

“Not true? Judging by your expression, you really think it’s my fault.”

Since when did this man read my expressions so well? 

Yuria subtly turned her head to avoid his gaze.

“Fine, let’s say it’s my fault.”

Suddenly, she felt the weight shift backwards. One of her legs was lifted, and her view changed. Thanks to Cedric holding her waist, she didn’t hit anything, but the sudden change in position left her flustered.

“You’ll give me a chance to make up for it, right? Once you set up a separate household, it’ll be hard to see your face.”

One by one, her other leg was lifted onto the table. The hem of her thin indoor dress fell onto her lower abdomen.Seeing his gaze directed between her spread legs, Yuria felt like screaming for real. 

Was he planning to do it here? On the table?

“T-to the bed, Cedric.”

It was just a few steps away, so why—

“We will, after I clean your p*ssy. I can’t consummate the marriage with a p*ssy that’s been used by who knows how many c*cks, can I, Princess?”

“No, no.”

Distracted by the vulgar words piercing her eardrums, Yuria didn’t even notice him lifting the hem of her dress that slightly covered her legs.

“My p*ssy isn’t dirty. I’ve never, not even once…”

Yuria squeezed her eyes shut and spoke as if wringing out the words.

“I’ve never done it. I’ve never gone all the way with another man. It’s true.”

This was true. The most she had done was hugging, and at most a light kiss. It was something Charlotte always found regrettable. She always set her up with healthy men, but Yuria never went beyond talking. Yuria never really wanted to go all the way with another man.

It wasn’t because of some old-fashioned notion of keeping her purity. She just didn’t want to. Her heart and body didn’t react. 

What was I thinking having an affair? 

She neither hurt Cedric’s pride nor enjoyed herself properly, and in the end, she was left with regret. Yuria’s thoughts didn’t last long.

She wasn’t brave enough to keep thinking while exposing her lower half.

“Do you expect me to believe that?”

“It may be hard to believe, but it’s true.”

“Well, who would believe that when you’re wearing such underwear? Only a complete idiot would believe it.”

Only then did Yuria realize that his gaze was on her underwear. Instinctively trying to cover it with her skirt, Cedric grabbed her wrist and lifted it. His grip was too strong to twist out of. If he applied more force, her slender wrist could easily break.

“You’re walking around in underwear that shows off your p*ssy, practically begging to be f*cked.”

Even though his gaze had no physical substance, a tingling sensation arose where his eyes lingered. Her already flushed face grew even hotter.

“E-everyone wears this kind of underwear.”

Despite her embarrassment, Yuria didn’t give up defending herself. This was truly unfair. Her white lace underwear wasn’t so indecent as to be called “such underwear.”

“Don’t lie. Who else wears underwear that doesn’t even cover their p*ssy?”

“It’s true, ah…”

Suddenly, Cedric hooked his finger into her underwear and pulled it up. As he pulled it up, the underwear turned into a string and dug into Yuria’s g*nitals.

“Wear proper underwear, Princess. A crude man like me can only think of doing crude things when he sees this.”

“Ugh, don’t, don’t pull, ah.”

The underwear, pulled up like a rein, spread her plump l*bia apart and rubbed against the tender flesh. The unfamiliar sensation of even her anus being rubbed made Yuria unwittingly lift her hips and moan.

“Looks like this underwear was made for this kind of thing. It’s easy to pull and feels—”

Cedric, looking down at Yuria who was biting her lip to suppress her moans, muttered softly.

“Good.”

Seeing how wet she already was. Cedric pushed aside the underwear he had been playing with and grabbed Yuria’s ankles, barely keeping her balanced on the edge of the table. Her legs spread wide, and between her trembling thighs, her red flesh bloomed like a flower. Her heated l*bia spread open like a ripe fruit.

Acting all prim and proper now. 

Cedric clicked his tongue shortly. 

Oh, was that the role the Princess was supposed to play in this act? 

Pretending to dislike it even if she liked it, acting like it’s not okay even if it is. Despite being teased by having her underwear pulled, Yuria didn’t kick out once. Other than trying to cover her underwear, she didn’t resist at all.

She only verbally defended how proper her underwear was. Unable to hide the excitement rising from her fulfilled expectations, the area between the Princess’s legs grew moist. It was quite an arousing sight. Cedric buried his head between the red, tender flesh that had spread open.

A place he had never tasted, even though it was his.

“Ah, ah….”

His lips descended on a place that had never been touched by another’s skin. Her plump l*bia spread to the sides, and his hot breath clung to the sensitive mucous membranes. The foreign sensation made her thighs involuntarily close. But the grip on her ankles pressing down grew stronger.

The more Yuria struggled, the more she ended up spreading her legs in a lewd posture.

“Ah, stop, ah…”

His hot flesh licked up her v*lva and then burrowed into the slit. The sensation of his wet tongue wriggling through her moist flesh was utterly foreign. 

This is, this is too lewd. 

Though she had received s*x education in the palace and learned about marital relations, she had never learned about a man sucking between a woman’s thighs.

“Ah, no, this kind of thing…”

She swallowed the words that almost slipped out. If she told him to stop and Cedric actually stopped, the fear of him losing interest and leaving filled her with sudden fear.

If he leaves like that, he will never seek her out again.If she couldn’t even satisfy him in bed, he would lose whatever little attachment he had left. Then the divorce would proceed without a moment’s delay.

That, that was truly unbearable. It would be better if the reason for the divorce was infidelity. Even if she couldn’t move her hips like a temptress, she resolved not to reject what he was doing. As soon as she made that resolution, he bit down on her swollen cl*toris.
