Eden Found Again
Kiern's discharge day was drawing near.
“You healed well. You really can retire now. Instead, you have to disinfect thoroughly every day.”
The doctor who looked at the affected part calmly said that it was okay to leave the hospital. Elizabeth breathed a sigh of relief when she was told that she had healed well.
I heard that he recovered quickly because he was hit while avoiding a dangerous area. Elizabeth vaguely looked at the affected area and asked.
"Will there be scars after all?"
"It's probably because it was a gunshot wound."
Elizabeth's face darkened at the doctor's meaningless muttering. It was a pity that a scar was added to the already scarred body.
I didn't realize it until now, but there were a lot of scars on Kiern's body. All of these were obtained on the battlefield.
Some considered the scar a medal, but in Elizabeth's eyes it was a stigma that reminded her of the war. Those traces will bring back memories of being on the battlefield.
Then Kiern took Elizabeth's hand tight. he said looking at her.
"It's not your fault."
Apparently, she thought she was blaming herself. Elizabeth let out a deep breath and took her hand.
"It's just that there are too many scars than I thought."
His eyes scanned the knife and bullet wounds in her abdomen and back. Time unknown to me was carved on his body. That fact hurt me.
It was a look filled with pity, but it felt like blood was rushing to Kiern. It was a bonus that he couldn't stand the fact that he was there again at the end of his gaze. It's also because I put up with it too long with the excuse of being a patient.
"Do not look at me like that".
"because?"
"Why do you think that is?"
Kiern smiled slowly and stroked her hand gently. Seeing the deep blue eyes, Elizabeth's face instantly turned red.
It is a good moment.
The doctor coughed as he watched the two men make love. It was even more surprising to learn that the opponent in front of him was the powerful Duke of Agafel.
I'm not as crazy as the rumors say. It must be different for a lover.
It was unbelievable that he had a normal relationship than he thought because he was a duke with such crazy moves. So he asked the doctor.
“When can I do vigorous exercise?”
"Yeah? Well, it's fine as long as you don't lift anything heavy. It's not like both arms are injured, so be careful with the affected area… … .”
The doctor gave a serious answer, but when he saw Elizabeth, whose face was as red as an apple, he stopped.
It's a naughty greeting.
Apparently, the duke seemed to enjoy seeing his lover in trouble. The doctor coughed and muttered what he was about to say.
"Keuheum, anyway, congratulations on your discharge."
Then, he hurriedly left the place. It was because I thought that if I stayed long, I would only see the good side of others.
In the car back to the hotel, Elizabeth hardened her face and punched Kiern's chest.
"I told you not to do that in front of people."
"I blame you for being too cute."
"Was it less correct?"
"I'm sick, Ellie."
Kiern let out a shallow moan as she watched Elizabeth strike back. Of course, his fist was at the level of a cotton bat, so it didn't hurt.
Elizabeth, unaware of this, fainted and stroked his chest.
"Are you sick? I hit you hard.
“… … .”
"Does it hurt a lot?"
"Ho, it might be better if you do it."
Kiern's smiling banter made Elizabeth realize later that she was faking her illness and she widened her eyes. In the end, Kiern, who had been hit harder than before, had no choice but to let out real pain this time.
"Kuk."
"Are you Eden? Ho, would it be better if I did it?
"Sometimes?"
Kiern, who kept an open expression to the end, gently pulled the unprotected woman towards him. Elizabeth's eyes widened like a startled rabbit's.
"Did you hear that? Now that I'm well healed, there's no problem in my daily life."
“He said he still had to work hard on disinfection. Don't lift anything heavy."
"You are not heavy."
"Kill!"
Elizabeth quickly covered her mouth with her hand and bit her lower lip. I felt a wave of heat throughout my body.
As her body tensed with embarrassment, Kierne smiled and kissed her palm deeply.
"As expected, you are not alert."
"That?"
"You keep provoking me by giving away your skin like this."
Kiern took his hand and began to kiss him. From the tips of the fingers to the palm and back of the hand. Elizabeth moaned into his lips, which gradually rose.
“Kee, kirne.
"Yeah."
"How long will that be?"
Elizabeth asked as if pleading, covering her mouth with one hand. It was because his body was very tired from the strange behavior that followed in the rattling of the carriage.
Kiern spoke slowly, looking down at her cheeks flushed with love.
"Until you drop?"
“… … .”
"Aren't you coming?"
she asked provocatively, putting her arms around his neck. It meant that if he didn't even match his mouth, he would torture him like this.
As soon as Elizabeth was released from the hospital, he laughed at him that he couldn't leave me alone. She also had a sweet body, so there was nothing to turn down.
she said, kissing him softly on the lips.
"I can't get over it."
Kiern responded with a smile at the pout's response.
"Let's do the right thing, then."
After that, he swallowed Elizabeth's lips. When the cherry lips were crushed, the soft tongue inside them touched.
The sound of meat colliding resounded within the carriage. It was a kiss that was neither too rude nor too reverent.
After a while, he kissed her hot cheek and called her name as if enjoying the aftertaste.
Ellie.
"Yeah?"
Isabel.
"yes I'm here."
Elizabeth playfully retorted, and he said seriously.
"......can I be so happy?"
Elizabeth blinked at the sudden question. Sensing his slight anxiety afterwards, she put their foreheads together and whispered.
"Yes. You can be happy. I'm happy too now."
“… … .”
“Because we only have good things left to do. That's why I hope you don't lose the most precious thing today while regretting your past mistakes."
Elizabeth held Kiern in her arms. As each other's hearts grew closer, the feeling of being alive was transmitted to both of them.
"I will no longer disappear in front of you, Kirn."
“… … .”
"So you must be treated properly this time."
At Elizabeth's words, he nodded slowly. It was because he knew that the treatment she was talking about was about hallucinations.
It was five years of living with his auditory hallucinations as a lifeline. Now that he had his real back, it was my turn to put his hallucinations aside.
She rested her head on his shoulder and squeezed his arm. It was only after they disappeared that I realized their value, and only after I found them again, did I realize that all those moments were heaven.
Kiern decided to protect the heaven she had found while enjoying it to the full. With the beloved Isabel and Eden, fruit of the two.
"Thank you."
“… … .”
"I'll do better, Ellie."
"Yes. I'll look forward to it.
Elizabeth laughed and returned to her seat. While I was getting dressed, the carriage stopped in front of the Line Hotel.
Kierne escorted her away with her uninjured arm. Eddie was the first to greet them.
"I waited very hard."
"What about Eden?"
"You look for your son as soon as you arrive."
Eddie pursed his lips and added that he was in the game room. Elizabeth and Kiern went straight to Eden.
Eden didn't know that Kiern was hospitalized. There were some things I didn't want to worry about and I was afraid to find out the inside story.
Thanks to the servants' strict mouth control earlier, Eden didn't know his true whereabouts during the entire hospitalization. I thought I was just going on a business trip.
After a while, Kiern, whose mischief was triggered, snuck into the arcade. Elizabeth, who was watching this, also joined in and quieted the footsteps.
The two of them were standing in front of the door. Eden, who found the two of them late, stopped playing with Anna and ran towards them.
"oh? mom and dad!"
"this."
Kiern ruffled Eden's hair with a face full of regret that her plan to surprise him had failed.
"How have you been?"
"Yeah!"
Eden said boldly. Normally, I would have whimpered for a hug as soon as I saw it, but it was weird.
A slight wrinkle formed on Kiern's face as she noticed Eden subtly examining her arm. He spoke lightly as if he was having a normal conversation.
"Son, why don't you ask me to hug you today?"
