So apparently, Ren spending the night with me was a very big deal and this news traveled fast like wildfire all over the imperial palace. I bet no one suspected that Ren spent the night with me without engaging in any activities that could lead to the production of a baby. I wonder how they would all react if they knew that Ren and I just slept peacefully side by side until morning came.
I still found it hard to believe that last night was Ren’s first time spending the night in his inner court. I figured that for some reason, Ren wasn’t entirely fond of his place and had little to no interactions with it, but it was still surprising, nonetheless.
If I recalled correctly, Shin did mention that Ren wasn’t interested in women in his inner court because his attention was always on the wars and battles. He fully engaged himself on that front and sometimes he wouldn’t be in the palace at all.
If Ren wanted to lessen the pressure fro
“Then…about me learning medicine…” I said hesitantly. Was it really…impossible? Shin did not tell me that it wasn’t possible…“I don’t know…if you gain enough favors then maybe…” Ren said before flashing me a calculating smile.Gain enough favors…I knew that Ren was baiting me, and I was surprised that I wasn’t mad at him for it.“Really?” I said as I narrowed my eyes at him.“Yeah, really. Be a good girl and I’ll see what I can do about that…” Ren said.“Thank you, Ren! I’ll make sure that I get to study medicine,” I said, proudly accepting his challenge.Studying some advance medical techniques here is probably the only interest I have of being here in the capital. I’ll do anything to get the chance!“A woman studying medicine is goin
However, there were many scars on his arms, and they reminded me that regardless of how at ease Ren acted when he was with me, the man before me is one of the most notorious conquerors of our time. I didn’t know how many empires rose and fell at his hands…“What are you thinking about? You’ve gone silent on me again…” Ren asked in a whisper, his eyes still closed.“I…was just thinking that the battlefield is a very dangerous place…” I replied softly, while trying to keep my eyes away from his scars.“Because of my scars?” Ren asked.“…Yes,” I mumbled my reply.“I’ll be fine. There’s no need for you to worry,” Ren said reassuringly as he reached up his hand and placed it on my cheek. His hand was wet and warm from the bath water, and it made me smile.“Do you…like wars?” I aske
“Ren…” I whispered his name in between my pleasurable moans as I closed my eyes and relax my body into his.“Your body is very sensitive, Rin. You’re reacting so much to my caresses…” Ren said as his hands continued to play around with my delicate breasts.“Stop…don’t say that…” I whispered.“But it’s true. Don’t keep your pleasurable cries to yourself, let me hear them…” Ren whispered into my ear seductively.“Ahhh…Ahhh…” I moaned louder despite myself when Ren started pinching my nipples harder.My nipples arched and I felt a slight stinging pain; however, the pleasure that I felt from his touch was so fulfilling that I cried out. My back arched, thrusting my breasts towards his hands while my hips writhed for relief.I felt his hand running along my inner thigh and I close
His fingers stretched my pussy walls and filled me completely. My body felt like it was floating in bliss as the void inside of me was filled by Ren’s fingers. Without warning, Ren began moving his fingers, pumping them in and out of my hole. His movement was rough and forceful; however, instead of feeling pain, I found it so fulfilling instead.“Ah! Ah! Ahhh!” I moaned and cried out loudly as I lost myself in pleasure and desire.My hips pumped up and down wildly, meeting his thrusts halfway to urge his fingers deeper and deeper inside of my hole. His fingers caressed my walls and pushed against the pleasure spot deep inside of me. It felt so amazing…“Cry out as much as you want, Rin. Don’t hold back…” Ren whispered into my ear, his warm breath caressing my ear.“Ren…I…” I said before my moans prevented me from saying anymore. The pleasure flooding my body was
This is the Royal Medical Office?! Really?!I stood there gazing up at the large sign with my mouth hanging open in astonishment. I couldn’t believe that I was standing in front of the Royal Medical Office. This is the place that I’ve always wanted to visit. The skill and practice of the royal doctors of the Flame Dragon empire was famous throughout the land. Even in my small village, medical traders who visited would often speak about the advancement of medical knowledge and practices from the capital.There was no way that a small town like mine would have the same advanced equipment or knowledge like the capital of such a large empire. I turned to Ren and cried out in joy as I clapped my hands together.“You look so excited…” Ren teased.“I’ve always wanted to come here!” I exclaimed excitedly. I couldn’t stop smiling from ear to ear.It was like my dream land w
“I thought…royal doctors only treated royalty…” I mumbled.“You’re right, that was surely the case up until recently. Royal doctors were reserved for treating members of the royal family only. Exceptions were made for their favorite concubines and such. Recently, I was able to convince my father to extend the work of our royal doctors to other people, although more work can definitely be done there…” Ren said as he flashed me a small smile.“Thank you, Ren…” I thanked him with all my heart.“Why are you thanking me?” Ren asked, he seemed genuinely confused.“I don’t know…I guess…for helping other people…” I replied a little hesitantly, unsure of how to put my feelings into words.“There’s a long way to go, Rin. Even now not all medical herbs are accessible to the commoners even if they ar
“Umm…today is a little bit busy because many representatives from the provinces and towns are here to collect their monthly medicine rations as per the policy. The lines you see are representatives queuing up to receive the medicine so that they can bring it back to their hometown…” the doctor explained in simple terms.“I see,” Ren said curtly.We walked along to various counters that were busy preparing and distributing medicine. Well wrapped parcels were passed over the counter from the doctors and herbalists in charge to the representatives.There were many questions that I wanted to ask such as what medicines and herbs were being given out. If there were diseases spreading in the provinces? However, I knew that asking questions now would seem out of place and I had to heed Ren’s warning.The doctor already looked puzzled enough that I was with Ren on his surprise visit to the Royal Medical
The following morning marked the start of my official journey to becoming a successful concubine, whatever that meant. It started off with Auntie waking me up super early in the morning and the maids helping me get dressed and ready for the day.I watched as a very serious-looking Auntie marched back and forth in my sitting room as she began lecturing me on the importance of being a successful woman in the inner court.“It is my pride and honor to have served the royal family for generations in grooming successful concubines who would produce heirs to the throne and continue the royal family tree. It is of the highest honor for women in this empire to be chosen to serve members of the royal family…” Auntie lectured in her authoritative voice.I sat there as I watched her pace around while she continued to lecture me. I couldn’t help but wonder how many women she had lectured this way and how many were convinced of her t
