Lisa looked around in earnest. She held her breath and quietly squeezed herself to the corner.

At that moment.

Bang!

The door opened, and the dresses hanging in the chest were pushed aside.

“Lisa …”

Jungkook growled. Lisa looked up at Jungkook with an awkward expression.

She knew someone would be looking for her, but she didn’t expect Jungkook, the Emperor, would search and find her himself again.

“Y-your M-majesty, how could you—yourself…. Ahh!”

Jungkook bent down into the chest, grabbed Lisa’s waist, and plucked her out as if lifting a child. Lisa struggled in fright, and in response, Jungkook slapped her ass.

“Ek! What are you doing!”

“That’s what I’d like to ask.”

Jungkook, who held Lisa, glared at her, suppressing his anger.

“Why are you hiding in the closet when you should be waiting for me in the bedroom?”

“H-hiding?”

“Or were you trying to play hide-and-seek?”

asked Jungkook with a frigid laugh.

He looked furious, so Lisa avoided his glare, glancing at the floor.

“I-I didn’t like the clothes I was wearing… …. While choosing clothes, I fell asleep.”

“After closing the dresser door.”

“If the maids found me… … It would take three or four hours to try on this suit and that suit… … .”

“You’re still trying to talk your way out of this.”

Jungkook snorted and laughed as he left the dressing room, hugging Lisa.

Behind Jungkook, the handmaids and attendants watched with them with anxiety. When the Emperor came out of the dressing room and enter the bedroom, he did not head towards the bed but instead towards the door.

‘Huh?’

He walked out of Lisa’s bedroom.

“Uh… . Wh… … Uh, where are we going……?”

You’re not gonna put me in jail, are you?

For a moment, Lisa panicked and nervously asked Jungkook, but Jungkook didn’t even glance at Lisa.

“The Empress will be living with me at the main palace as of today.”

“We hear and obey your Maj—”

“Ack— why?”

Before the couriers could reply with their affirmation, Lisa, who was still in Jungkook’s arms, shook, furious. Jungkook looked at Lisa with a fierce look.

“Why?”

Lisa felt his bloody gaze.

“Is that the voice of the Empress, who fled from sharing the Emperor’s bed twice?”

“I-I never ran away.”

“Ho—Really?”

Jungkook hurriedly walked down the hallway that led to the main palace ignoring his train of escorts, guards, and attendants urgently following him.

“Let’s see if that’s true or not—in my bed.”

***

There was a considerable distance from the Empress’s Palace to the Main Palace where the Emperor lived. In the meanwhile, Jungkook never put Lisa down.

Rather than letting her down, the arms that held her were firm, not coloured by fatigue or tremors.

The addition of the weight of her dress meant she should have exceeded the weight of an adult man. Lisa was in awe of Jungkook’s strength.

While the Empress’s Palace focused on the splendor and elegance, the Main Palace seemed to focus on highlighting the Imperial family’s dignity with grandeur and spirit.

The high ceilings were filled with arts related to the empire’s past emperors, with their statues and portraits all around.

In the lavishly marbled hall, precious gems and gold were used to illustrate the wealth of the empire generously.

Jungkook stridingly walked past it all with indifference.

The Emperor’s residence was located at the Main Palace’s innermost part and was the largest complex in the Main Palace.

At every juncture, the guards, servants, and knights were surprised to see the Emperor carrying the Empress in his arms.

Lisa protested and pleaded her case, having to pull the hem of her clothes down each time, but Jungkook didn’t pay her any mind.

At the eighth enormous, spacious corridor reminiscent of a hall, they finally reached the Emperor’s quarter.

The main palace was kept strictly.

It was common for the Imperial family to return on a whim, so when the Emperor who was expected to spend the night at the Empress’s Palace returned, the servants hid their surprise and showed professional courtesy to the Imperial couple.

Jungkook’s bedroom had already been perfectly prepared.

Boom!

The door to the bedroom opened, and Jungkook with Lisa in one arm entered. As Jungkook strode toward the bed, an attendant who followed them quietly shut the door without a sign.

Lisa stole a glance while being held to Jungkook’s chest.

You’re not going to throw me onto the bed like in the movies, are you? It’s fun to watch it in movies or read about it in novels, but it actually hurts……

They arrive at the huge bed (which seemed to be bigger than the bed in Lisa’s bedroom); Jungkook was also the novel’s main character.

Contrary to her stiff face, Lisa inadvertently exhaled a sigh of relief when Jungkook’s hard arm lowered her on to the bed.

“… … It’s too early to be relieved.”

said Jungkook crookedly, looking into Lisa’s face with cold eyes.

Lisa glanced at Jungkook, clasped his face, and kissed him.

“!”

Instantly, Jungkook’s face turned red.

His anger didn’t cool down with this, but the reason quickly crumbled on Lisa’s lips, which he had not touched in a long time.

‘Damn!’

Lisa’s lips were so sweet and fragrant. Jungkook indulged in Lisa’s lips in a frenzy, pushing her down on the bed.

Why does it feel softer and sweeter than I remember? I felt like I was choking in dizziness.

“Cheeky… … . With just one kiss… … . Um… … . Avoid punishment… … There will be, ha… … . Is that right?”

He wasn’t intimidating at all when he said this while kissing. Rather, Jungkook only confirmed how weak he was to Lisa’s body.

Jungkook was embarrassed by himself.

What’s that kiss? His soaring outrage had reached the sky and in an instant was captured, and instead, the vacuum it left in its wake was filled with fervor for Lisa.

If this situation was repeated, it would be undeniable that he wrapped around her finger and skirt and would listen to whatever she wanted.

“Hmmm…….”
