As soon as she entered the room, the door closed, and Leon pushed Dana. Dana leaned against the hard door and looked at Leon fearfully.
“Leon, I…”
Leon’s rough breath brushed against Dana’s cheeks and ears. In the end, she had to tell him. The fact that he saw such a scene first seemed to have caused an unexpected misunderstanding, so she felt uncomfortable.
Dana took a big breath and closed her eyes.
“I’m… Dana Deniz.”
Leon listened to her and tucked Dana’s hair behind her ears. Unlike his friendly touch, Leon was still looking into her eyes sharp.
Being somehow familiar with this composition, Dana opened her mouth, comforting herself while shaking her blue eyes.
No, this person is not Rian. He’s the one who saved me.
“… The memory is back.”
“…”
Leon gradually came down, fiddling with Dana’s winding blonde hair. He hadn’t spoken for a while. Will he hate her? Dana looked at him in tension, and Leon studied Dana’s face.
“Yes, that’s a relief.”
After a while, he spoke in a low voice. But what was the relief?
“If you don’t tell me the truth, what should I do with you…? I thought a lot about it.”
After saying that, Leon finally took a step back. The tightness in her chest eased and Dana exhaled. However, looking back on his words, Leon was in a sense the most dangerous man to her.
He calmed down, quickly turned, and walked toward the terrace.
The accommodation given to the only Grand Duke in the Empire was, of course, the best room in the Annex palace.
From the terrace of his room, he could see the structure of the separate palace at a glance.
Leon smirked once he noticed something before he could tilt the curtain. His eyes went sore again.
“What should I do for you?”
At the gloomy murmur, Dana went to his side and stopped.
“What?”
Leon reached out one hand to Dana, fixing his gaze somewhere over the window without an answer. It meant to come this way.
Somehow he looked very angry even from behind. However, unlike the appearance shown to Dana earlier, he was cool and calm.
“Why…?”
Dana approached him and followed Leon’s gaze. A thin wrinkle appeared on her forehead.
Rian, who had been acting like he was about to leave, was hiding behind a tree and spying on their room. Although they could see him, he was still doing it, which meant that their side could not be seen properly from below.
Dana didn’t know how to react, so she quietly bit her lower lip.
“He seems to have a lot of lingering feelings.”
His hand lightly came up above her hips. Dana couldn’t answer Leon’s words, flinching at the small contact.
“You look like that, too.”
“What do you mean? That’s not true.”
“Lingering doesn’t necessarily mean good feelings.”
Leon responded leisurely to the slight denial. In his relaxation, he gritted his teeth.
Dana slowly turned her head and looked at Leon.
Then he looked at Dana. As expected, Leon’s eyes were angry, but he tried not to show it to her.
“Yeah, it’s just the past.”
“How much do you know?”
“Tell me what you remember.”
Leon made Dana stand in front of him. Somehow, he felt pathetic for being jealous of the past, so he wasn’t confident to face her.
What she went through was too complicated to simply dismiss as jealousy, and Rian, who tried to hurt Dana, wanted to strangle her to death right away. But before that, what he felt at the moment was definitely “jealousy”.
“I was the one you decided to marry, Dana Deniz… There was no need to use a band.”
As Dana’s story began, Leon’s grip on her waist became stronger. He placed his lips slowly against the back of her neck revealed between her hair.
“So…”
“Keep going.”
“I met you when I was young, I came to Tertius Castle holding my father’s hand. I remember this. This was more of a dream than a memory… Ah!”
Leon pulled the knot tied behind Dana’s neck with his teeth and untied it. When the string that supported it flowed down, the upper body of the dress also fell.
Dana hurriedly covered her chest, grabbing the clothes flowing down with her hands. However, Leon soon loosened the crossed string behind her back, and the back was exposed except for the front she was holding.
Dana unknowingly looked at Rian below. Even though she knew he couldn’t see her properly, she somehow felt like he could see everything, so she clenched her clothes even tighter.
“Leon…”
“It must be bothering you a lot.”
“No, it’s not like that…”
Leon came down kissing along the spine from Dana’s back neck. Every time his hot breath touched her lips, her body flinched. She bent over and touched the terrace glass wall. Even at this moment, Dana gave in to the familiar excitement, even though she felt pathetic for collapsing quickly from his touch.
“Hah, I lost my memory and passed out… It’s because of him. Ahh!”
When Rian’s story came out, Leon bit somewhere on Dana’s back hard with his teeth. Dana took a breath and peeked at him.
“Stop… Shall we talk?”
“No, keep going.”
Dana’s back was exposed to her hips. Leon reached between the dresses and stroked her slender waist and pelvis.
Dana continued to talk, contemplating whether to lead him to bed or not.
“He tried to deceive me and kill me after receiving the power of attorney of the merchant group. I thought I was going to die like that… When I woke up, you were there, I had no memory.”
A large hand stroked her buttocks and pressed the sensitive area over her underwear.
“Haah.”
At the moment Dana was about to lose her footing, she managed to hold out and moaned. Leon was holding himself back now. The more he listened to the story, the more he got sick to his stomach.
