After Story 2
“Please, please hurry up.”
“You have to spread your legs more and open your own p*ssy in order for me to answer your request, Saye.”
He could not miss the unexplored view of the beautiful silver forest that had been messed up. Kainer buried his face in Saye’s warm place and she gasped loudly. He breathed in and out as if he was going to inhale all of Saye’s scents.
The smooth tongue passed over her thigh. Her inner thighs trembled and she staggered as if her legs were about to break. He greedily sucked and licked the inside of her under the pretext of cleaning up, and Saye let out a weeping-like moan through her closed lips.
Down below, Saye could hear the indecent sounds of Kainer devouring her.
“Ah, please…”
“It seems like it’s become a habit that you keep dripping even when I’m sucking gently.”
“Because Lord Kainer is doing it like that…”
Even when she was tearful, she said what she wanted to say quite bluntly. Despite the protests that contained resentment towards him, Kainer devoured Saye with a loud noise. It didn’t matter if his lips, chin, and the entire lower jaw of his face were glistening with her fluids.
“Your Majesty, the Sixth Imperial Princess Mirga wants to see you.”
At the sound of Hassan outside the door, Saye shoved Kainer’s head off her. At that moment, the reflection in her gray eyes was his face, all wet. Before Saye could reach out and wipe it with her hand, Kainer’s languid reply fell.
“Come in.”
As soon as a woman appeared in the immediate vicinity, Saye was embarrassed. As Enin said, she is a gorgeous beauty. She was wearing a veil on her face, but the very thin silver veil made her look even better.
When Mirga entered the room, she saw Kainer sitting on his knees in front of Saye, burying his face in her lower body.
“…Your Majesty?”
“You’re no longer your brother’s sister, have you forgotten your etiquette?”
Kainer continued to lick the silver mound without being pushed back even when Saye forced him away, and spoke out in a low-pitched voice. He didn’t even give Mirga a glance.
The only thing facing Mirga is Saye, barely standing there with her trembling legs. This was their first meeting.
Mirga seemed perplexed at first, but soon she smiled in full bloom and knelt down and put her forehead on the floor.
“Greetings, Sultan.”
“Get up.”
Kainer said still without even giving her a gaze.
Even though his big body was hidden under the thin underskirt, she couldn’t tell what he was doing. Saye was dizzy and closed her eyes tightly.
“It’s been a while, but won’t you face me? I’m heartbroken, Your Majesty.”
Kainer took the hem of his robe, which Saye had been grasping so tightly, out of her hand, and straightened his outfit. As if there was no such thing as friendship between siblings who inherited the same blood, his cold eyes were only kind when his gaze met Saye.
“This is the only concubine of the empire who is making a name for herself.”
As soon as she came in and saw Saye, Mirga’s eyes, who dared to point it out, were confident.
Saye didn’t want her to win in her favor. But Mirga didn’t have to be hostile.
In front of Saye, who was embarrassed because she could not understand her intentions, Mirga’s lips raised alluringly.
“The rumor is that she is a rare woman who monopolizes a great person who should have seen many descendants by now.”
“Mirga.”
She was his older sister. Since she returned to the Imperial Palace at the age of fifteen, she used to hang out often with the Fourth Princess Erencia.
Mirga laughed as Kainer called her name briefly, but it was a warning. Kainer stood up next to Saye, filled with only an unreadable look as if he was dealing with a completely different person, not a sibling.
“I was wondering who she was, but I didn’t expect to be such a beautiful and tender person. Greetings, Haseki Kadin Efendi.”
Mirga bowed her head, emphasizing the ‘haseki’ title attached to the concubine who gave birth to the Sultan’s child.
“Nice to meet you, Princess.”
Saye’s eyes turned to Mirga’s stomach, which was quite swollen. She hadn’t heard that Mirga was pregnant.
As if Mirga felt Saye’s gaze, Mirga stroked her swollen stomach with both hands.
“It’s the legacy my husband left me.”
After three years of marriage, when her husband, who was a member of a foreign royal family, died, Saye seemed to understand why she returned to the Empire with a child in her womb.
“Some people are afraid that my unborn child might be a son. Will you protect me, Your Majesty?”
Saye also gave birth to a child, so it made sense. The moment she was hostile to Saye was probably because of her vigilance to protect her child.
“Your Majesty.”
In addition, Saye also called Kainer. At the place where she married, she couldn’t even recover properly after giving birth. Most of the people there lost their lives at the hands of Kainer, and the only family she had that remained was Kainer, who butchered their blood. How terrifying must be the threats Mirga had received. Saye gulped.
“As my generous Kadin asks, I will listen. One, only until you give birth. If you want to make the child the successor of the foreign royal family, do it with your own hands. Was this not your real intention for coming here, Mirga?”
If it was Mirga, she would easily survive the battle of the concubines. That means that if she ran away from here on the pretext of giving birth, the other side would not be too happy.
“Thank you, Kadin, for your kindness. I’ve been looking for a very nice gift for the one and only Haseki Kadin Efendi in the Empire.”
Mirga’s eyes shone like stars.
Mirga was calling someone outside, and Saye soon realized that the gift Mirga was talking about was a person, not an object. It was a beautiful woman with long silver hair and red eyes, just like hers, who entered the room with her back straight.
“It just so happened this child came into my husband’s concubinage. I brought her to use as a limb, as I’m sure Haseki would like her too.”
When a husband died, the concubines were freed unless there was a special will. Of course, that freedom was not true freedom.
“Lai, convey your greetings.”
“Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire and his only Haseki Kadin Efendi.”
The woman, speaking in a pure, clear voice, was on her knees, with her head on the floor. She was still lying there, as Kainer had not commanded her to rise.
“Your Majesty?”
Kainer’s eyes did not separate from the woman, Lai, who prostrated on the floor.
Very few people had silver hair in the first place. It would have been nice if Lai had the color of Saye’s eyes too, but Mirga was satisfied with this. When Mirga looked into Kainer’s eyes, it seemed that her prediction had come true. Although Mirga said it was a gift for Saye, it was meant for Kainer from the beginning.
If Kainer’s taste was like that, there’s nothing she wouldn’t do to match it, even if it was rare and hard to find.
“Mirga.”
Kainer looks at Lai. Mirga, who was looking at Saye, turned her head to look at him. That’s why she was late to reply to Kainer who called her.
An ordinary woman would have shown anxiety and jealousy because she was threatened with something special to her husband alone when she was the only one for her husband, but what Mirga sees on her face is just surprise and curiosity.
Mirga frowned slightly.
Curious. She knew what the future would be like. How foolish was this Kadin that she couldn’t even see an inch in front of her.
A man’s affection easily changed and tended to transfer from one woman to another. Kainer met various women during his time as a prince, and even got engaged. He stopped just after he turned 20, but now that he became Emperor, who’s to say that habit wouldn’t change?
Most of the harem women who gave birth to the Sultan’s children were never called again after giving birth.
“Mirga.”
Kainer called Mirga again. Then she answered, as Mirga took her eyes off Saye.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“You knew how to survive. It was a wise decision to step out.”
Kainer’s eyes were focused on Saye. The curious gray pupil fixed on Lai, who was lying down. Looking down at Saye, Kainer twisted one corner of his lips.
“It’s interesting. Miss Saye, what are you going to do? If you would like to receive that gift, say yes.”
Mirga was quite surprised to see Kainer, who called his partner’s name affectionately and respectfully. Even kneeling in front of the woman was not enough. An Emperor who acted like a servant who served his master with all his heart. Was this another prank or play? Mirga’s eyes lit up, to find capriciousness in the Emperor.
“…I want to talk to her.”
If Saye refused to accept the gift, it would be an insult to Mirga. However, if she was willing to accept it, she thought it would be quite troublesome because Lai would come in a state of silence. Mirga was quite curious about how Saye would react but her answer came unexpectedly.
An ambiguous word that neither accepts nor refuses to accept.
As if Kainer was the same, he grabbed Saye’s chin and drew her attention to him.
“Are you saying you’ll take her?”
A look of trouble spread across her face. She couldn’t believe she was being gifted with a person.
“You have to answer for sure. The moment you receive it, it will be Miss Saye’s responsibility.”
Responsibility comes with a price, Kainer added in his mind.
“I’ll take her.”
After a moment’s deliberation, Saye’s decision made her smile a little darker. Mirga quickly opened her mouth to see if the Sultan or Saye would change their mind.
“She’s a mess now because of a long journey. I will take her to my place to wash and dress up and send her off. I am glad that Haseki has accepted my gift.”
There was no comparison between Mirga, who knew how to destroy a harem woman, and Saye, who had never been a full-fledged harem woman. She was an easy opponent to deal with.
Mirga had to make herself stay here. She had to stick with Kainer until the child was delivered safely, or until her child grew up.
Mirga did not believe in Saye. Although Saye looked naive and stupid, Mirga had seen many women who hid their true nature and harmed their opponents to the point of death. It would be foolish to kill or expel all of the other women and believe in Saye, who was alone by the Emperor’s side, so it appears.
Mirga had also dealt with harem women since childhood, and even though she was able to see through shallow numbers and insidious assassination attempts, didn’t she fall into a situation where she was pushed into a fight and ran away?
His husband made a promise to Mirga before his death. If the child to be born is a boy, he will succeed him.
The child in the womb must be a boy. It must. Only then could Mirga hold her child and return to the battlefield as a victor.
In order to do so, it was better to have Lai, who she could use to her heart’s content than Kainer’s concubine, who she didn’t know entirely. Because it’s clear what each other wanted. She herself promised to bring Lai into the eyes of the Emperor, and Lai agreed to help her give birth to the child safely.
It didn’t matter that Lai was her husband’s concubine. A childless concubine was left with nothing after her husband’s death. She was free, but what could she do? She could enter another family, but there’s no better partner than the Emperor of the Empire.
“I am glad that my wife received a gift.”
It’s not a bad start.
Seeing Kainer staring at Lai for a while, Mirga was convinced.
