HAPPY READING

















He gently and softly kissed every corner of her face while his hand slowly moved up and down, from her back to her waist.

While he was languidly engrossed in afterplay, a thought came to her mind and she abruptly burst into laughter.

"Jungkook, you know, Lady Milton who came this afternoon said something funny."

"Lady Milton... ah, you mean the daughter of the Baron of Milton."

The Baron of Milton was a vassal to the duke, a rigid and upright man. It was recognized that he educated his children to emulate his righteous character so he had allowed the daughter of Milton and his wife to interact more frequently. He wanted her life in the north to be enjoyable.

"Yes, she asked if you possibly wouldn't let me go outside."

His hand which was caressing her back paused for a moment. Lisa chuckled and continued speaking, not noticing.

"I told her that wasn't how it was, so she asked me to go horse riding with her."

Faraway.

"Horse riding?"

"Lady Milton says it's fun and is a sport. May I learn?"

"...It sounds dangerous."

"It isn't that dangerous. She said a lot of women do it."

"Do you really want to learn?"

He did not like it. He had seen in the past how the appearance of women going riding and then panting afterwards would capture the eyes of men. It was also quite the sight to see a woman in riding clothes these days.

There was nothing more indecent than the way it clung tightly and revealed the body.

In the past, he was no different from other men, in that he thought that it was nice to look at plus he was never one to care for a woman or distinguish who he spent on but that was already a thing of the past.

He never clung to trivial things of the past.

"I can't?"

Lisa placed her cheek on his chest and pitifully blinked her eyes. In that moment, he barely managed to stop himself from immediately saying that she could do whatever she wanted.

He did not want her to go horse riding. He could not bear to see foolish men leering at her but this was her first request to him since they had gotten married. He didn't want to see her disappointed look if he refused.

'A riding place that only women are allowed in... I don't think there's anything like that in Roam... I'll use this opportunity and make one then.'

There was no such place, not only in Roam but in the entire Xenon. This was the moment when the only women-only equestrian (horse-riding) practice field was formed.

The place, which would serve as an important venue for social activities of women in northern high society in the distant future, began with a man's unwillingness for his wife to be seen.

"Okay. Only if you promised to learn within the castle until you can safely ride to some extent."

He would make the practice field while she was learning to ride. It would take about a week or so.

If that wasn't enough time, he would ask her riding teacher to hold her back a few more days. He also had get a horse riding teacher. A female horse riding teacher.
