I Didn’t Tame The Beastly Duke!

Chapter 26

By pretending to beg for forgiveness, he tried hard to explain himself to Celia over and over again. Someone else would have ridiculed this shameless behavior, but Celia was now his wife.

She was not just his legal wife, but he was a man who wanted to be a real couple with her.

[..I still love you, and I believe you still love me too. Your hatred for me, all that hate, will prove that love.

You must be crying when you think of me, just as I cant take a sip of water when I think of you.]

Wrong. Celia was smiling and living happily in Leonis arms.

She ate properly this morning, and the only tears she shed were when she was drenched in pleasure in his arms.

[If he has a conscience, he will not interfere between the two of us.]

What should he do? Leonis flexed his jaw to prevent the sound of breaking bones from the cleft palate. He intended to interfere with Fabian with all his strength.

There is no relationship between them already!

.Leon? Why are you so angry? Was it a fake letter impersonating my sister? Was there something like gossip written on it?

Celias voice made Leonis suddenly escape from his anger. Leon. She had already called him by his pet name.

This blatant ex-fianc pretended as if there was still something left of his relationship with Celia. But Celia had completely forgotten him.

. At the very least, she was trying to forget about him. Seeing that she was willing to accept Leonis and embrace him in her arms.

Even when they were making love every night, Leonis wasnt the only one who touched Celia.

Leonis looked at Celia when he recalled how excitedly she had accepted that lewd and tender touch.

Yes. Its ridiculous. Its embarrassing to read this to my wife. But Do you want to see it?

Celias expression became firm as Leonis spoke with a hazy expression.

I dont want to read gossip. Please dispose of it.

Its not that she wasnt curious about Fabians letter; she just didnt need it if the curiosity made Leon uncomfortable.

Fabian was a shameless guy anyways, so theres going to be resentment towards anything written on it.

Id rather burn it.

Leonis was happy with Celias response. He folded a portion of the letter out of fear of Celia noticing any part of it, stuffed it into an envelope, and walked over to the fireplace.

Because they lived in the north, the fireplace in the hall room was lit up. Leonis tossed the letter into the flame in the fireplace. The flames quickly consumed the crumpled envelope.

Leonis turned back to Celia after confirming that the letter had been completely burned. As if she had lost interest, Celia was already getting up from the sofa.

Her gaze was drawn to Leonis gift box, which had yet to be organized.

Leonis walked faster from behind. He hugged Celia as soon as she looked back at him.

Celia, my wife hug me.

His whispered voice was filled with a tragic emotion. Celia wrapped her arms around Leonis, certain that the letter was from Fabian.

As her slender arms wrapped around his waist, Leonis let out a soft sigh. Leonis leaned over to Celia, swallowing something he couldnt say.

Celia was hugged by his huge body, as if it was covering her frail body.

Please love me.

He couldnt say anything that would ruin her love and cause her to betray him in a miserable way. Leonis had a minimum conscience.

If he let go of this hand even a little, Celia seemed to fly away without looking back.

Celia.

Celias body tightened by the arms, growing stronger with each passing moment, she was embraced in. Leonis seemed unconscious about it, but if he continued in this way, he would be guilty of hurting her.

Leon, please take a seat over there. Im going to sit on top of you.

He flinched and bowed his head at her as Celia whispered to Leonis. Celias eyes gleamed with a playful shine.

All right.

You can refuse to answer whatever I ask.

Celia led Leonis to the sofa by pulling his hand. Celia climbed on her knees and sat with her hips on Leonis lap, dressed in an indoor dress.

Did the letter have such unpleasant content?

Even though she was sitting on his lap, Leonis eye level was still higher than Celias. Celia covered Leonis cheek with her hands as he buried his face.

Yeah.

I felt bad. Ive heard that there are people who say ugly things.

What had Celia been thinking when she let him read the letter? Was it because she had completely put him out of mind?

Betrayal left a deep scar in peoples hearts. It varied in depth depending on her level of faith, so the wounds she received must have been huge.

Leonis was so afraid that the faith that had driven her to death would return. He was afraid that she would leave him.

There was one thing in Fabians letter that wasnt true.

Leonis could not give up on her, even if Celia had an affair with him. If she accused him of being forced to marry and asked him to leave their relationship alone. He might have accepted it with a heavy heart.

If I hold on to you. If I kneel at your feet and beg with my forehead against the back of your feet

Leonis whispering voice was heavy.

Celia blinked slowly and looked up at him.

Tears did not flow on his distorted face, but Celia thought that his face looked like he was already crying.

Then Will you stay by my side?

Please love me.

Leonis looked at Celia with an imploring expression on his face that he couldnt put into words. Her blue eyes were more beautiful than ever. So Leonis became even more miserable.

Who could not love her?

Even though he was not Fabian, it was not surprising if everyone who knew her would fall in love with her.

Celia.

Leonis looked at her anxiously, fearing that Celia would run away at the question. Celia seemed to be bewildered but also troubled.

Leonis pressed his lips against the palm of her hand where his face was buried. Celias hand moved at the touch of his hot, moist lips. When Celias soft fingers caressed Leonis lower lip, his lips parted.

As his bright red tongue tasted her fingers, Celia let out a sigh.

Forever

Leonis heart sank at his whispering voice. Celia said as she scoured Leonis face with her blue eyes.

Swear you wont betray me.

I swear. You are my wife Celia, I will not betray you.

Celias eyes were filled with satisfaction as he said it in a trembling voice. Even that was pleasing to Leonis.

You cant cheat on me either. Youve got to love me forever.

When Celia said the next words, Leonis seemed to be dreaming.

I will only love you. I swear forever I love you forever.

Celias eyes gleamed as she heard Leonis response. Leonis was staring at her like a dream.

Then, you are mine.

Celia said while looking at Leonis face with round eyes.

Leonis didnt even want Celia to love him. It seemed suffocating just to ask if she could stay by his side.

Will you stay by my side?

Celia made eye contact and smiled playfully.

You have to come after me. You are mine.

As she finished saying that, Celia embraced Leonis neck and pressed her lips against his hot lips. Celias lips were warmer than his, but there was something soft and sweet.

Leonis sighed deeply and swallowed Celias lips. Now he had a distant thought that he should pursue her for the rest of his life, but his body was trembling with joy.

Even though he felt that he shouldnt have dared to ask her for love, he had hope. By seeing how she smiled so much, it seemed it wont be long before Celia loved him.

Even if it was in the distant future, he could wait as long as he could if she held him in her arms like this and didnt see any other men, and if he could put his arms around her and kiss her.

Leonis eyes welled up with tears. Celia, who was stroking his face, panicked when she noticed his hot tears wet her fingertips.

I love you. I love you, Celia

The words spilled out like a dam had burst. Logically, he should not dare to hold out his heart because he would not get it back if it did not work for him.

If she did allow me to stay by her side. I can say this.

Celia had a surprised and compassionate expression on her face as she looked at Leonis. While saying that, Leonis was concerned that his words would make her feel burdened.

I like you too. Its not love yet

Maybe it will be.

It would be more difficult to not love someone who is devoted and clings to their relationship.

Leonis seemed to be at a loss for words at what he had never expected.

There were no traces of Fabians dirty words left in his mind. Only Celias words that she likes him are filled in his head He even believed he had been saved.

Celia.

Leonis tears were carefully swept away by her delicate fingertips. Leonis breathed deeply, filling even the darkest corners of his chest with happiness.

Happiness. It was a word he didnt think hed ever hear again in his life.

Leonis hugged and kissed Celia once more. He could feel Celia embracing his trembling body with happiness. His arms squeezed Celia again.

She was his happiness.
