    Chapter 23. The Northern Grand Duke has become strange

    She had a lot of thoughts because of Leo who showed such kindness after she got hurt. However, she was confused whether his changed behavior was an expression of gratitude or affection.

    ‘Yeah, well. It doesn’t matter. Just because he likes me doesn’t mean I’m going to marry him.’

    Suddenly, her hand that was stabbing the steak with the fork stopped thinking about that.

    ‘Wait, what would happen to me if Leo takes a Grand Duchess?’

    Up until now, she had only thought about erecting Leo’s genitals, But now that he was like most men, she had to worry about him having another woman. If he were to marry a Grand Duchess and she didn’t like her existence, Leo might not give her power.

    ‘Ah, if that happens, all the hard work up until now will be in vain.’

    Jana, who suddenly lost her appetite due to a worry, fiddled with the handle of the fork that was holding down the steak slice.

    Leo asked, looking at her.

    “Why aren’t you eating?”

    “…..”

    “Doesn’t it taste good? Should I ask them to bring me something else?”

    “Oh, no. It’s delicious.”

    Jana waved her hand at Leo’s words and said.

    “But why aren’t you eating?”

    “I’m eating.”

    Jana put the meat she had forked into her mouth and munched. Leo, who was looking at her with a strange gaze, picked up a glass of water and wet his lips.

    “Are you having a hard time because I’m bothering you too much?”

    It’s true that he has bothered her too much, but it’s not like it’s so hard, so she shook her head slightly. The problem was Leo’s future wife.

    “Then why do you have that expression?”

    “What’s with my expression……”

    “The expression of being scolded. If the food isn’t good, I’ll fire the chef, so tell me.”

    “Oh, no?! It’s really delicious! It’s really sweet!”

    Jaina shouted urgently, startled by Leo’s sudden words about firing the chef. Leo, who was staring at her, tilted his head and asked.

    “Then what’s the reason? It’s not that I’m being too hard on you, and it’s not that the food doesn’t taste good, so why are you suddenly feeling down? Tell me. Why are you doing that?”

    Jaina felt like she couldn’t just leave it at that, so she carefully opened her mouth while fiddling with the fork in her hand.

    “Excuse me, Leo… Are you going to get married?”

    Leo’s eyebrow rose at her question.

    “Marriage?”

    “Yes. Now that you’ve gotten erect, I thought you might want to think about marriage.”

    “What does having a dick have to do with marriage?”

    “No, you know, no, when you were asexual, you probably wouldn’t have thought about taking in a grand duchess…….”

    When Jaina tried to muffle her words, Leo let out a short sigh and said.

    “It’s true that I don’t want to take in a grand duchess, but it’s not like I wasn’t going to get married when my dick wasn’t working.”

    “T-That’s right…….? But now that you can have sex with women like other people, I thought you might want to think about marriage…….”

    “I just don’t want to get married.”

    Leo cut Jaina off and answered firmly.

    “Really?”

    Jaina’s expression brightened at his words. Leo’s eyebrows furrowed.

    “What exactly are you worried about?”

    “……..”

    “Are you afraid that I’ll take the Grand Duchess right away just because I can erect my dick?”

    Jaina rolled her eyes, dumbfounded by Leo’s words.

    Leo stared at her and continued.

    “So you’re afraid that I’ll kick you out of the Grand Duchy?”

    “……..”

    “Or are you worried that I won’t be able to give you holy power?”

    Jaina’s eyes widened again because Leo had once again pointed out her exact thoughts. She couldn’t understand how a man who didn’t even know the ‘female’ part of a woman could figure out her mind so clearly.

    “Tell me, Jaina. What exactly are you worried about?”

    “Just like you said. If you take a wife now, I might not be able to receive power from you anymore.”

    Leo’s expression changed ambiguously at Jaina’s words.

    “If the person who will become the Grand Duchess doesn’t want to allow it, I won’t be able to receive your power anymore. Then I’ll end up dying….”

    “Why are you worrying about such useless things?”

    Leo frowned as he cut Jaina off.

    “This is an important matter that affects my life.”

    Jaina looked at him, feeling somewhat upset because Leo said that her worries were useless. Leo looked at her strangely.

    When the heated gazes continued in silence, Leo opened his mouth.

    “Then you can become the Grand Duchess.”

    “What, Grand Duchess?!”

    Jaina raised her eyebrows and asked. Leo looked at her with a blank expression and said. 

    “It’s an important matter that’s life-threatening.” 

    “No, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to be the Grand Duchess…” 

    “Anyway, it’s a dick that I won’t use if it’s not you.” 

    Jaina’s eyes widened at those words. Leo looked at her with a blank expression and continued. 

    “I don’t plan on putting my dick in any hole other than your pussy.”

    She doesn’t know why her heart is beating so hard when he’s talking so casually and vulgarly. Jaina, who felt burdened by Leo’s gaze, rolled her eyes and licked her lips to avoid his gaze.

    “Anyone can say that. But relationships between men and women aren’t as easy as they sound.”

    “What else would be difficult?”

    “What if you fall in love with one of the noble ladies of the empire? If that happens, you’ll never be able to keep what you just said.”

    “Love?”
