    Although it was hard to tell what Lee Moon thought of Heon, when it came to other people, it wasn’t that difficult to figure out.

    After Consort Yu’s authority had been shaken and Heon’s power had increased, many opponents began to come out from the shadows.

    “I don’t have any personal grudges against you. Your sins have merely gotten you to this point, so die quietly.”

    Heon heard words like these quite often. He raised his head. The night sky was full of clouds. It looked like there was going to be another battle tonight.

    “You should regret being born the Consort’s son.”

    The assassin raised his sword as he spoke. Heon chuckled. When the assassin saw Heon’s reaction, a fierce aura burst out of him. However, Heon merely sighed.

    “Do you think Consort Yu will collapse just because I die?”

    “What?”

    “If she were a woman who would collapse just because her only son died, then she wouldn’t have betrayed her family and left the way she did.”

    “What are you talking about?! Die!”

    The assassin roared as he flashed his sword at Heon. With his sword still in its sheath at his hip, Heon merely moved to the side. Having lost his balance, the assassin stumbled.

    Heon struck the staggering assassin’s wrist and took his sword. Then he swung the sword to the side. With a flash, the sword cut the assassin in front him as well as the one approaching him from behind.

    ‘You must block the Consort.’

    Heon might have mistakenly understood those words as a command to kill the Consort. That spiteful, venomous, tenacious woman. If she weren’t his mother, and if it weren’t for his father’s dying wish, he would have killed her by now.

    ‘Should I just kill her and be done with it?’

    When the shocking thought passed through his head, Heon smiled.

    He was already the son of a woman who abandoned her family. He didn’t want to be branded as a son who killed his own mother as well.

    Although he hadn’t lived a completely upright life, he hadn’t lived a reckless one either.

    ‘So why did I do all this now?’

    If he had to kick the Consort out of her position, he had planned on doing it in one fell swoop. In order to protect his clan, he needed power, and if he wanted to protect the wide, rich land of the bamboo grove, he needed authority.

    Either way, there was no other choice he could have made. That was why he continued to stand at the line he had drawn for himself.

    ‘Do you hate me that much?’

    “Die!”

    Evading the sword coming from behind, Heon took his own out of its sheath. One raindrop turned into two. In no time, the rain poured down. It was so heavy that it was difficult to see in front of him.

    Every time Heon moved his sword, the clear raindrops were stained with red blood. He let out a groan when he felt the sharp end of a blade pierce his flesh, but it only lasted a moment. His sword stabbed a vital point, and the assassin caught his breath.

    The stench of blood drifted into Heon’s nose. The assassin let out a shout and aimed for Heon’s heart. He tried to turn around, but the sword cut down his cheek.

    “Why am I thinking of such things now…”

    “Aaagh!”

    Rather than the blood drenching his entire body, MoonWon’s strained voice continued to distract him. If she had been a clingy woman like his mother, he wouldn’t be thinking of her like this.

    After blocking another sword with his own, Heon turned around and swung his sword down in a long stroke. Splitting the torrential rain with his sword, Heon heard the cries of an unknown man within the rain.

    ‘Why are you so unwilling to listen to me at all?’

    Just having her by his side was tiring enough. Unlike the other women who left him when he flashed them his murderous eyes and cold rebuttals, she remained inside his field of vision. Even though she continued to get hurt by his hateful words, she’d approach him again as if it hadn’t happened.

    ‘I’m really doing my best.’

    “I know.”

    In the rain, Heon thrust his sword into the neck of an assassin. As Heon felled the assassins one by one, his body was gradually covered in wounds. However, for some reason, as he watched the assassins attack him with a murderous look in their eyes, his head was only filled with the image of MoonWon as she lowered her head in disappointment.

    “Ah… You little…!”

    A bulky assassin blocked Heon’s sword before falling down. The final assassin clenched the sword in his hand. Heon merely stared at him and didn’t attack. Therefore, the assassin stepped forward and made the first move.

    “Die!”

    In an instant, the assassin’s sword closed the distance between them. Heon’s hand moved. The clash of sword against sword only lasted a moment. The assassin grabbed Heon’s blade with his bare hand.

    “Aaagh!”

    Blood was pouring out of the hand grasping the sword, but the assassin held on and roared as he swung his sword at Heon’s neck with all his might. Heon barely managed to block the attack with his wrist. The blade cut through his sleeve but did not go past his wristguard.

    Clang!

    Instead of meeting flesh, the blade struck metal. When the assassin was stunned by the sudden noise, Heon used this chance to push him off. Then he squarely planted his fist in his jaw.

    “Ugh!” 

    The assassin’s sword grazed the back of Heon’s hand, causing blood to burst out. Meanwhile, there was a deep cut on Heon’s wrist. Crying out in pain, the assassin tried to escape, but Heon’s sword began to make its way to him.

    Before he could scream, Heon’s blade pierced through his neck. The assassin’s body slumped to the ground.

    “Huu.”

    Heon let out a tired sigh as he stood in the rain. Drenched from head to toe, Heon suddenly burst into laughter.

    ‘Let’s take care of our bodies.’

    If he showed up like this in front of her, MoonWon would scold him, but he had no reason to complain. Now that he thought about it, she was the only person in his life who had said something like that to him. Even though he treated her so coldly, she continued to approach him. He tried to hide the wounds in his heart, but she tried to embrace them.

    It was late, and it was raining so much. She was probably already asleep. But wouldn’t she still be waiting for him? She might even give him an earful as soon as she saw him.

    He already had his hands full with keeping Lee Moon in check and fighting against Consort Yu. How could he be thinking about a woman at a time like this?

    A woman whose family could not protect her. A woman who held no power. He couldn’t let himself be shaken by a woman whose fate was merely passing his. This must never happen.

    “Not now.”

    Taking care of himself alone was more than enough work. If he took the wrong step at any time, he could lose his life. So how could he walk the edge of this cliff with someone else? He couldn’t even imagine asking someone to share the burden he had to bear.

    Heon did his best to suppress these thoughts and turned around to head back to the residence. Suddenly, he came to a halt.

    “Your Highness.”

    Heon wasn’t sure when he’d gotten here, but JaeHoon was currently watching him with his guards in tow.

    He must not have noticed because he was fighting the assassins. No, he probably hadn’t noticed because he had been thinking about MoonWon. Upset with himself for being so lax, Heon furrowed his brow.

    “She is my wife.”

    Heon’s eyes traveled down to the wound on his hand. His blood was being washed away by the rain, but the wound was very severe. He recalled how MoonWon had promised to do anything he asked in return for letting her write her letters.

    He merely said what he wanted but did not plan on taking responsibility. The way JaeHoon was behaving was no different from Consort Yu.

    JaeHoon had definitely meant the former, but Heon’s thoughts were with the latter.

    The sense of loss from losing one’s parents felt incredibly empty. It made him feel like he had no direction or drive in his life. So he channeled all of it into protecting the clan from predatory wolves and getting revenge on the traitorous Consort Yu.

    And for the first time in his life, someone shook him from his path. Although he tried to get back on track multiple times, the woman approached him and asked to be together. She grabbed onto him no matter how many times he pushed her away.

    However, he felt that it had been a good decision to take her as his wife.

    Although she was sorry for making such a request, if YongUn was reinstated to an attendant, the only one who could do this favor for her was Heon.

    “Even though he was reinstated just as he wanted, our situation is different now. It will not be easy for him. You may know this already, but my father isn’t someone who cares much for other people. He only does things that would be advantageous for him. You must never share your authority with him. Please just help him take care of his work.”

    MoonWon looked away as if the request was awkward to make. Although she was asking favors of him like other women, the content of her request and the way she asked him was unique to her.

    “In exchange for doing you this favor, what will you do for me in return?”

    “Excuse me?”

    MoonWon froze at the unexpected question. A rare smile flickered on Heon’s face. Although it had been an incredibly tiring and long night, he wanted to feel someone’s warmth, even for just a moment.

    “Ah!”

    Although no one had ever seen this side of him, if it was MoonWon, it was alright. She was the one who continued to approach him even when he told her to go away, so she would accept any shocking behavior that came from him. 

    Heon grabbed her slender wrist and pulled. When she was right in front of him, he lowered his head into her embrace.

    “H-Husband!”

    MoonWon cried out in confusion, but Heon closed his eyes and blocked his ears. With his face enclosed in her soft warmth, Heon took in a deep breath. Her racing heartbeats, her soft breaths… He liked hearing it all.

    Although he still hated women, he wanted to keep MoonWon close.

    At first, MoonWon was bewildered and didn’t seem to know what to do. However, she calmed down soon enough. A few moments later, she cautiously lifted her hand and began to stroke his hair.

    “You should head to bed… Husband!”

    When MoonWon saw that Heon was lying on her own bed, she swallowed her breath. She had ordered for her bedding to be prepared while she was treating Heon earlier.

    “You should head back to your room and go to sleep.”

    Heon’s eyes opened when he heard MoonWon’s voice. Her face was bright red and looked like it would burst at the slightest touch. She avoided his gaze.

    “You should head back and go to sleep now.”

    Just a moment before, she had given him a soft embrace. Now she was telling him to go back. Heon quietly closed his eyes.

    “Husband!”

    Heon heard her helpless cry, but he ignored it. They were married. No one would criticize them for sleeping in the same bed. And he wanted to stay by MoonWon’s side, even if it was just for today.

    However, despite Heon’s wishes, MoonWon’s insides were being burnt to ashes.

    Not knowing what to do, MoonWon began to fidget before she carefully approached the edge of the bedding.

    “H-Husband! Are you sleeping?”

    MoonWon asked cautiously, her voice slightly shaking. Heon was used to her answering him with firm resolution, so this sounded very new to him.

    He never imagined a woman’s voice would cause him to waver like this.

    “Husband! You should head back and go to bed.”

    Her small hand shook his arm. Soon, her hand began to shake him with much more force. Unable to feign ignorance any longer, Heon opened his eyes.

    Relieved to see this, MoonWon smiled.

    “Are you telling me, an injured man, to go back out? When it’s raining like that?”

    When she heard his answer, MoonWon’s hand moved up to his cheek. Although he was covered in small wounds, they weren’t so serious that he couldn’t go back to his room. Additionally, the moment Heon went outside, numerous servants would be ready to cover him with an umbrella. 

    “If some rain gets into my wounds and something happens, will you take responsibility?”

    “But if you use an umbrella, then…”

    “In this rain?”

    MoonWon was at a loss for words. Heon wasn’t wrong, but sharing a room together made her heart race and her breath catch.

    “But there is only one bedding, so it will be uncomfortable for you.”

    “You and I… We’re married, aren’t we?”

    MoonWon swallowed. She hadn’t forgotten it, but now that everything was happening, her head drew a blank. Although they had been married for several months now, the time they spent apart was a lot longer than the time they spent together.

    Heon was definitely not in the wrong, but what was she supposed to do now that he was changing his behavior?

    “It looks like rumors will spread about how the Mistress kicked out the Master.”

     “Who would say such a nasty… I’m just saying that you can’t sleep here.”

    She vehemently argued that he mustn’t stay here, but Heon never planned on listening to her. Now that he was in the warm room surrounded by MoonWon’s fragrance, exhaustion began to wash over him.

    Heon’s breaths grew steady as he fell asleep, and MoonWon looked like she was on the verge of tears.

    ‘What do I do?’

    She couldn’t wake him up now that he had fallen asleep again.

    Ultimately, she’d have to pass the night like this. After covering Heon with a blanket, MoonWon crouched into a chair. It was uncomfortable, but this was the best she could think of.

    With her knees gathered together, MoonWon propped her head on her arms and gazed at Heon.

    This man usually passed by her as if she were made of stone, but now that he was suddenly acting like this, her heart couldn’t help but flutter. However, she was also worried that something might have happened to warrant this change in behavior. Did he hear something strange from JaeHoon?

    ‘No.’

    She was curious, but she didn’t want to ask him.

    She didn’t want to tangle herself with JaeHoon anymore. She didn’t even want to think about it.

    As sleep slowly washed over her, MoonWon let out a sigh. She buried her head into her arms and closed her eyes.

    A few moments later, Heon opened his eyes. He watched MoonWon as she slept crouched in her seat. His eye slightly twitched.

    “How tactless.”

    He hadn’t planned on doing anything with her. She could have told him to get out since this was her bed or she could have ignored him and just layed down. But instead, she was just making it harder for herself.

    Heon got out of bed and approached MoonWon. She was already petite, but seeing her like this made her look even smaller. She looked like she was going to fall out of her chair, so he picked her up. She must have been deeply asleep because she did not flinch as he placed her in her bed.

    He covered her in the blanket she had used on him and stared at her.

    Heon carefully swept the hair that had been covering her face. His hand then traveled down to touch her cheek.

    Every time she took a breath, her skin felt soft and unfamiliar.

    “Mm?”

    When MoonWon suddenly moved, Heon quickly took his hand back in shock.

    It wasn’t like he committed a crime, but his heart was racing inside his chest. He did his best to calm down as he observed her. However, MoonWon must have been very tired because she was still asleep.

    “Huu.”

    He let out a silent sigh as he propped his head in his hand. He continued to gaze at her. He was now fully awake.

    As the rain continued to pour down outside, Heon watched MoonWon for a long time.
