Eon Jin look at him, "Your Royal Highness.... I didn't expect that you like this design... It's nice it's very... Romantic..." She said while looking around the room. Tae Pyung gulped, "Honestly, I don't know about this..." He said. Eon Jin look at him with puzzlement.
"Halmeoni!" The two said together.
Eon Jin and Tae Pyung let an awkward smile and they both feel uncomfortable this time. "Maybe... I will take a warm bath first, Your Royal Highness..." Eon Jin said. "Ah... Sure... There's a secret door behind there. It's a passage towards to where my bath house is." Tae Pyung said. Eon Jin nodded and she immediately walks towards to the door to avoid Tae Pyung.
"Oh my!" Eon Jin said when she open the door. Tae Pyung immediately went over her to check on her. "Why?" He said. They both startled when they saw the bath house.
Just like the room, it's surrounded by the flowers petals, scented candles and the water is already lukewarm and the scents is so inviting to soak.
Tae Pyung smile mischievously. He slowly turn around Eon Jin to face him. "Your Royal Highness..." Eon Jin said and Tae Pyung control his laugther when he saw her blushing."You remember our unfinished business?" Tae Pyung asked softly. Eon Jin look at him with puzzlement. "In the greenhouse, My Princess?" He added. Eon Jin gulped when she recall their intimate scene at the greenhouse. Tae Pyung smile mischievously as he slowly closing the door of the bath house. "You also want to take a warm bath, Your Royal Highness?" Eon Jin asked innocently but it's so seducing for Tae Pyung. "Yes, My Princess... If you let me join you now..." He said. He reach her hand and kiss it, "Can I join you, My Princess?" He said while looking at her eyes without any blink.
Eon Jin let out a sweet smile to hide her nervousness. Tae Pyung adjust his face to kiss her. He kiss her gently yet in a sweet way. Eon Jin close her eyes as she feel his warm breath, his soft lips that keep touching her lips. She feel his hand travel to her back.
Tae Pyung break their kisses and they both breathless. "Waeyo?" Eon Jin said. "Just wait me here, My Princess... I want to make sure that no one will disturb us tonight." He whispered.
Tae Pyung went to the door and open it. "No one will disturb us tonight, Arasso? And that's a command..." Tae Pyung said.
"Yes, Your Royal Highness..." All the royal court ladies and Chief Eunuch Chi su said.
Tae Pyung look at to Wol Sook and Man bok and gave them a death glared. "If any one call me or Princess Eon Jin, Tonight... I swear I will hang their head at the central side of the market..." He said. Wol Sook and Man bok look to each other and they both control their laughters. Tae Pyung immediately close the door and go back to where the Crown Princess is.
