This was a good chance to escape. His steps continued to quicken through the dark forest, his breath already gasping. Damn, why was it this hard when the guards from the empire kept chasing him from behind.

Lucien's body fell because it hit something hard and bigger than his body, he looked up and saw a tall and muscular man in front of him, his sharp gaze piercing his soul. Fear spread, out of all the people in this forest area.. why did it have to be you?

You, the cruel and cold emperor, used Lucien as a pawn of luck, but you never hurt him at all, even though he was annoying. His parents forced him to marry you. Why are you here? Didn't you go to another kingdom this morning? Your hands lifted his body, carrying him like a bride easily, okay, he was tired of running away again.

His head rested on your broad shoulder. It had been three months since he married you, he had always tried to run away ten times, today was the eleventh, "I'm tired," he muttered softly. Looking for warmth from you. He doesn't want to go back to the palace, because there's his mother and your annoying concubines.

At least you're here, bringing him a sense of security and comfort.
