"He does." Primrose turned toward her husband and buried her face into his embrace. "Husband, I’m really happy because I can finally come home."
Edmund lay beside her and gently stroked the back of her head. He didn’t say anything, but his warmth and quiet presence were enough to calm her heart.
The long trip from Noctvaris to Illvaris had taken so much energy, and the carriage bed could never compare to her real bed. Maybe that was why she fell asleep so quickly, without even noticing.
When she woke up, she faintly saw the snowstorm raging outside through the gap in the curtain. Even though it was already morning, the sky still looked dark, but she didn’t feel cold at all because her husband’s body radiated natural warmth.
Primrose looked down and realized Edmund must have changed her clothes last night so she could sleep more comfortably.
Primrose looked down and realized Edmund had even changed her clothes so she could sleep more comfortably. She lifted her head and tapped the tip of Edmund’s nose playfully. He always looked extra adorable when he was asleep, and she couldn’t help teasing him.
But before she could poke him again, Edmund suddenly grabbed her hand and opened his eyes. "My wife, you should have kissed me instead."
Primrose was startled for a moment before laughing. "I was about to kiss you, but you already woke up." He leaned forward, closing his eyes. "Now you’re the one who has to kiss me."
Without saying anything, Edmund immediately did what she asked. He kissed her lips several times until it deepened and Primrose almost lost her breath.
"Husband..." she whispered breathlessly when he finally pulled away. "You shouldn’t do naughty things in my parents’ house. You’ve only been here for one night."
She smiled when Edmund didn’t seem to care about her playful warning. He said, "Once everyone knows you’re pregnant, they’ll also know we’ve done a lot of naughty things."
Primrose giggled as her husband continued kissing her lips and moved down to her neck. He had even shifted on top of her now. At this moment, she knew Edmund wanted to do something more than just kissing.
She didn’t mind if he wanted to have morning sex. Besides, the weather outside was terrible, so they couldn’t go anywhere anyway. However, just before Edmund could go any further, the door to her chamber suddenly burst open.
"My Lady! We’re here to—"
Edmund and Primrose turned at the same time, staring at three maids standing frozen in the doorway. They were holding breakfast trays and towels, which immediately slipped from their hands and crashed to the floor.
[AAAAA THE BEAST KING WANTS TO EAT MY LADY!]
They screamed inside their minds all at once.
Primrose let out a soft sigh, then spoke half-heartedly, "Girls... you can’t just barge into my bedroom like that anymore." She added with a tiny pout,"I’m a married woman now."
Back when she still lived here, the maids were used to entering her room first thing in the morning to wake her up or bring breakfast if her father wasn’t home.
Since Primrose had just returned after months away, it was natural for them to be excited and instinctively resume the routine they used to do for her.
After all, they had also prepared a separate room for the Lycan King, and it was normal for nobles to sleep in different rooms if they didn’t plan to spend the night together.
So to walk in and see the mighty Lycan King in their Lady’s bed first thing in the morning... and looking like he was about to devour her... their souls almost left their bodies.
After a moment, they finally realized Edmund wasn’t trying to eat Primrose, but did something indecent to her instead!
That sounded better, but at the same time, they still weren’t happy! Maybe because they always saw Primrose as an innocent and sweet lady, even though she had never been innocent, not even before she got married.
"We—we’re sorry, My Lady!" Nani bowed so fast her hair almost fell off, and the others quickly followed. "We will come back later!"
In seconds, they rushed out and closed the door, leaving the fallen breakfast and towels scattered on the floor.
Primrose finally laughed and gently pushed Edmund aside so she could sit up. "You should’ve made sure the door was locked."
After their steamy moment was destroyed just like that, both of them lost the mood to continue what they planned earlier.
Well, technically Edmund still wanted to, but since his wife clearly wasn’t in the mood anymore, he didn’t force her.
"Don’t worry." Primrose kissed his cheek lightly. "We can do it again tonight. But for now, get up, we have something else to do!"
