Barbaric Spouse, Descry the Night's Lure-Chapter 109: Scene CIX

"No." — The mainglousse child said offended. — "I held Master’s Wife’s hand first. I allow Master!"

"She’s my Wife. Her hand is mine to begin with, kid." — Annoyed he retorted with cold tone. As if giving orders to the innocent child.

"... Master’s Wife... is that true? Nu cannot take Master’s Wife’s hand?... But Nu likes taking Master’s Wife’s hand..."

"It’s mine."

"! Nnh... No... Nu took it first!"

"She married me first."

Ewelina had stayed silent at their exchange, slightly entertained until the child became saddened at his strict tone.

"Husband... Do not be like this..." — Ewelina said in secrecy to the man before turning to the unique child. — "Nu is a fair child, I also like taking your hand. Husband is teasing you, please do not feel sad..."

"Hng~ Master’s Wife! Master is a meanie!"

"Yet I said no lie."

"Aslak." — Glaring at her spouse as the child came to hug her, the severe tone of Ewelina reprimanded the man, who even when she was to bend to comfort Nu, he would not release her hand out of pride.

"Gasp!... M-Master’s name... Hehehehe! Master is in trouble!!" — Playful, the child lightly moved away to maliciously tease her Master as she felt safe in the arms of the woman. — "Mean Master is in trouble~~ Nu will tell Grey and Litilmenni!"

"... I’m not in trouble."

"Nu, it is late for you to climb the tower and talk to Grey... Will you be obedient and tell them tomorrow? Remember that good rest permits Nu to play further during the day."

"Hum~ Alright! Nu will sleep and tell them!" — Energetic, the child gave in to the nice caress of her cheek the woman gave, turning to her Master to smirk in goodbye. — "Hehe~ Master’s Wife likes Nu more than Master, Litilmenni will laugh!"

"... Nu."

"Gasp! Nu leaves!! Good night!!!" — Appalled by the growl of the man she ran away into the corridor. Leaving the couple on their own to watch how her short legs took her speedily away from any scary scolding.

Ewelina stared from below, still crouching in the position she had adopted to comfort the child. Graciously standing as Nu was about to disappear from her sight.

"Stupid kid." — Aslak muttered, unaware he was truly in trouble.

"Husband is indeed in trouble." — Ewelina commenced, condemning his attitude. — "How come you go against a child like that? She is not stupid but innocent. While husband is mean and childish."

"... She started."

"....."

"Saying she allows me to. What’s that nonsense?... Tsk."

".... Pff...!" — Surprised by his truly childish answer said with complete seriousness, Ewelina held her breath from the bafflement to turn and release a whiff of a restrained laugh. — ’This spouse of mine! How come he is like this?! Hahaha!’

"Wasn’t I in trouble? How come you laugh?"

"Hahaha, goodness... Yet how can I not? Husband’s behaviour is unexpected... It is entertaining."

"..... I wasn’t playing. You’re my wife, she’s who needs my permission."

"... Husband do you truly mean that?"

"Yes. You said since I’m your spouse I can touch. Therefore others need permission... I allow the kid..... Why do you keep laughing."

"hahaha! Aslak... Haha... Come. I shall tell you once alone." — Seeing a pair of servants approaching, Ewelina pulled his hand while smiling gently from the giggles he caused with his severity.

’Lovely man of savage nature...’ — Ewelina thought happily as she pulled the grumbling man. — ’This possessiveness... I love and can allow from you.’

"... Oi. I said no lie." — When little length was left for their shared chambers to be reached, Aslak said bothered. Since even while Ewelina smiled, she had confirmed he was in trouble as the child had teased. — "The kid’s in the wrong, woman."

"Ouf... Husband." — She said as she entered the room he held the door open to, turning so Ewelina could delightfully look into the frowning man’s eyes. And so, her hand came to his cheek as she also lured him into the chambers with lit candles that received them. — "It is you who is in the wrong although no lie was told."

"?? I’m not in the wrong."

"... I am your wife... Yes. However, the touch you are permitted is not to be granted to any other... You do know it is different, right?"

”... She also holds your hand."

"... Yet our fingers do not intertwine... It is not the same."

"... I don’t get it. You’re only making my grudge bigger, Ewelina."

"Sigh... Husband your thoughts are extreme... A pure child, she is young and innocent. Hence, such is the touch they get for children need pure affection." — To the frustrated sigh that left her, the eyes of the woman came down, tracing the man’s chest with conservative, yet tempting fingertips, peeking at his tough skin so her blush could emerge at the words she intended to tell, truly honest to the attentive gaze of her spouse.

"However..."

"... What." — Gulping down as he stared at the flutter of her humble eyelashes, he inquired while the feminine bony finger burned him desireful of further touch.

The hands of the wild man slipped cautiously to take the hips of the woman, causing the heated breeze of her near breath to graze the flesh of his thrilled chest.

"Aslak... You are special..."

"How."

"... The manner in which you touch me... Along the many places you can touch of me, differ greatly from others."

"..." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Others have many limitations... while you have no restrictions as I, your wife... I am only yours to take..."

Youthful voice of the woman rang in his ears wondrously as the timid shine of her gaze met his dazed ones. A thirsty swallow was invoked as the lick of his edges occurred, coming along with the slight lift of his corners.

"Truly, Fatædi?"

"Yes..."

"Fuuhh... Darn woman... it’s these eyes and fur you tempt me with." — Stepping even closer, looming onto Ewelina, Aslak fiercely growled as if it were a menace. Yet it was his fervour to use the frail sweetness of the wife talking to take advantage with sly schemes. — "I want revenge."

"uh... What?"

"I said I kept grudge... isn’t it nice you are only mine to take, Fatædi?"

The mesh of concern and anticipation could be seen in her expression as the spouse teased for a kiss that wouldn’t graze her lips. Unlacing the whispers of a yearning female that responded dazed by the frustrating strokes his hands gave to her waist.

"You... You still hold grudge...?"

"I do."

*Nibbles*

Leaning this time, the awaited kiss was a bite to her lip that caused a delectable flinch in the woman. Solely separating to announce a battle.

"So you’ll have to fight me now... Become fierce, Fatædi."
