Lips On The Tip Of a Knife - Chapter 5
” [ Congratulations on having a new family , my daughter. This mother is so happy that the day will come to see you have such a decent family . ]”
I thought that sometimes it wasn’t bad to be receiving the sincere blessings of the Duchess , who seemed happier than anyone else in the world. The guests who attended the wedding waited for the ceremony to begin with different sentiments.
” What kind of person is the bride chosen by the Grand Duchy?”
” It was said to be a saving beauty.”
” You said you fell in love at first sight ?”
The person who attended because he was curious about the bride. Those who attended for political purposes. A person who attended because he couldn’t get rid of the regret of unrequited love. The person who just got invited to sit. No one knew the truth about the rumored wedding. In the first place , none of them knew the real reason for Cassian’s marriage.
‘ What the hell is your Majesty thinking … ‘
Count Allan , Count Irmano , Cassian’s right arm and aide , the very few who knew all the truth , the wedding seemed to be just a great show . In the first place , this marriage was nothing more than a regular marriage . By the way … … .
‘ You seem strangely sincere.’
Cassian was weird to Alan. Suddenly there was a lot of laughter. Originally , Cassian wasn’t a person who laughed so well. Alan’s feelings have become very complicated to the abnormal reactions Cassian has seen over the past few days , as if it’s crazy.
‘Although he was originally unknown. ‘
It was the seat of Cardinal Nero , who was officiating while Alan groaned. The ceremony began. Following the entrance of today’s protagonist , the bride and groom , the hall was fluttering.
” Ugh … “
“Break ……”
The only thing that existed in the hall with the sound of breathing in was stillness. Everyone was looking at only one person. It was Arne , who would become Terneugen’s Grand Duchess and Cassian’s wife . … When I was preparing for the wedding , I had no idea , but Arne felt strange when she entered the wedding hall m. It was the same when Cassian laughed strangely when he saw Arne in a wedding dress. Even when he went to the battlefield , he had never been nervous , but Arne felt a slight tension. It’s because of your mood that the bouquet in your hand feels like a sword , right ?
” Are you. “
When Cassian called for himself , Arne was in a strange mood. Wouldn’t it be nice to have someone call you by name ? Cassian , dressed in a formal dress , looked cooler than usual. As the eyes met , Cassian smiled and reached out his hand. As he stared at the hand , Arne carefully grabbed it. As I felt the warmth and presence from my hands , the reality of marriage was suddenly realized.
‘I’m really getting married.’
It’s also with this guy.
” First of all , on behalf of the two protagonists , we would like to thank both sides for attending this event today . Shining blessings and light be with you.”
Cardinal Nero , on the officiating occasion , opened his mouth. He said something , but oddly enough , Arne’s ears couldn’t hear it properly. Suddenly , the sense of reality disappeared, make a knight vow ? He was hesitant , but when Arne finished answering safely , Jurye asked Cassian this time .
” Does the bridegroom swear to love the bride forever ?”
When asked , Cassian’s gaze turned to Arne. Her eyes deep like the abyss contained Arne. Arne flinched at the gaze that seemed to be sucked in , and Casian pulled the tail of his mouth and laughed.
” I swear .”
An answer that cannot be known whether it is true or false.One thing that didn’t change in the vague answer was that Cassian had no intention of letting Arne go. Ironically , Arne was feeling it too.
” Then kiss them swearing eternal love.”
The kiss of the oath. Soon Arne was embarrassed m.
‘ kiss ? ‘
I wasn’t embarrassed because I didn’t know the word kiss. I was just embarrassed that | had to kiss a man I hadn’t yet met. Cassian’s smile deepened as he saw Arne frowning as if in trouble. As if asking for help , Arne saw Cassian … … . Well , I found the wrong person . The final sequence of the wedding. The eyes of Cassian , who smiled kindly , thickened . Cassian lifted the veil that was covering Arne’s face lightly. The fiercely beautiful red eyes stared at Cassian. You probably won’t be able to find these beautiful eyes easily in the future.
” If you want to quit , run now. This is your last chance.”
Arne frowns at the low voice heard only by Arne. What the hell is this man talking about during the wedding. Besides , this kind of conversation had once been done before.
” Sometimes it’s too late to run away. “
” Yeah. You are late. “
In a short moment , eyes came and went. The moment Arne noticed the black desire that fluttered deep in Cassian’s blue eyes , he was already caught. Arne breathed in the overlapping lips. Stealing that breath , Cassian digs deeper. Arne , who was dragged away helplessly , remembered that people were watching it , and tried to stop , but Cassian didn’t stop. When Arne thought that he would die of breathing difficulties if he did this in a crazy kiss , Cassian let Arne go.
” With this , I declare that Her Majesty Xian and Her Majesty Arne are married.”
Nothing else was already visible. As Arne met her eyes , Cassian licked her lips with a satisfying smile , like a fat beast. Arne realized that moment.
‘ This marriage is already ruined.’
The end of this marriage is dominated by a strong premonition that seems to be the only ending of either one killing Kasian or being eaten by him.
~~~ Terneugen Castle was bustling with the wedding reception. Of course , Arne , the protagonist , was also right to attend the reception …
” There’s a lot going on today , so take a break!”
” Arne – sama has already done everything enough! “
” I can’t overwhelm Arne’s precious feet more than this!”
” Yes ! If you move more than this , you will fall !”
Due to the overprotection of the maids , she was absent. The overprotection of the maids , which was usually enormous , was undoubtedly enormous today. Even though the opponents are nobles!
‘ Can do this ? ‘
Of course not , but no one said anything , so Arne simply gave up his duty. As soon as it became a grand prize , the first greetings and first exchanges were thrown out , it was unimaginable to anyone else , but what should I do ? Arne was truly satisfied. There was a deep dissatisfaction with the maids who usually treat them like babies , but it was different only today. Arne cherished the peace of the interlude. I don’t know other times , but today I was tired. The mind , not the body.
‘ What the hell has happened today …’
I got married. It was a marriage that seemed unlikely to have any influence on life , but , surprisingly , Arne was stupid. Perhaps the biggest contributor to this situation …… Perhaps it was a kiss of an oath. Arne , who was fiddling with her lips , flashed her cheeks as she recalled the day.
‘ No , let’s forget. Let’s forget such a kiss! ‘
To Arne , who shook his head and tried desperately to forget , the maids suddenly made a tremendous remark.
” Ho – ho , have a good night !”
” Have a comfortable night!”
Of course , he was going to have a good night and a comfortable night , but Arne soon realized what the maids were saying to him.
” The first night.”
My sleepy mind awakened. The banquet to celebrate the wedding is held all night , but the two of the wedding’s protagonists greeted them and were able to leave their rooms when the time came. After removing the uncomfortable dress and cumbersome decorations from the Grand Duchy’s room , Arne had a cool bath , and belatedly conflicted with the awakened reality. First night.
‘ I can’t be still like this. ‘
First night ? There was no way Arne could send that kind of thing. Arne , who recalled the daytime kiss , became more serious. I had no intention of killing Cassian today , but I didn’t know I would kill him anyway.
‘ The woman who killed her husband on the first day of marriage. I have no intention of doing that. ‘
I thought it was a little cool , but I wasn’t crazy enough yet. I thought maybe I’d do it soon , but I was still sane! Therefore , there was only one answer left for Arne.
” It’s an escape. “
The historic event today called the first night.
Wasn’t it all right to not see your husband? Arne , who came to a simple conclusion , looked at the dynamics outside the door.
” It’s so popular … “
If it were , I could do it , but I couldn’t handle the after – storm when I was caught. There was no law requiring people to only walk through the door. And the door wasn’t the only door. Arne’s gaze turned to the window in the room. When I opened the window wide and looked around , the view was clear. The Grand Duchess ‘ room was located on the highest side of the castle.
‘ But I think it’s possible if I run over there. ‘
The street was so wide that ordinary people couldn’t think of running , but Arne didn’t care . It was the moment when I was just moving to try to escape.
” What are you doing ?”
“………..! “
When the hell came, Cassian looked at Arne, leaning against the open door.
