Summary
“So, you want me to hold you? Without expecting anything in return.”
Rayliel, who was sold off as a concubine to an old duke and unjustly executed, finds herself back in time.
To escape the clutches of the duke, who obsessively valued a woman’s purity, she chooses to sleep with the first man she meets.
“Tell me the reason. Why are you so desperate to sleep with me?”
“You looked like the least… troublesome option.”
The man let out a faint laugh. He was already sitting on the bed when he pulled Rayliel toward him, positioning himself behind her.
Then, he whispered in her ear.
“Spread your legs.”
His hands moved swiftly, giving Rayliel no chance to resist as he forcefully parted her thighs. Rayliel stared at her exposed body in the mirror.
“If you even think about closing them, that won’t be any fun.”
***
Despite having sacrificed her purity, Rayliel was nevertheless sold to the duke. But the man reappears, rescuing her and offering her a proposal she can’t refuse…
“Shall we make a deal, Miss Rayliel?”
“A deal…?”
“All you have to do is be with me like you did that day. Undress when I say so, lay with me when I ask, and spread your legs when I command.”
“…….”
“Whenever I want, day or night—it doesn’t matter.”
Easy, right?
His red eyes, filled with madness, glinted ominously, as if he were about to devour her whole.
