Chapter 14

Wooyoung PV

"What if we go to the inn like the old days?"
My cousin proposes, as soon as we finish examining the estate's account books.
"All these years under military service ... dear cousin, you need the warmth of a woman tonight"
He says chuckling; but Hea appears immediately in my mind..and I can't allow it.

I approve the idea of ​​Yeosang; and as soon as we leave the library, Hea appears clearly in a hurry in the corridor.
"Why are you not with my mother?"
I tell her, placing myself in front, blocking her way.
"I was just going to her"
She answers me, breathless;
And my eyes fall on her neckline shining with sweat, which leads me to thoughts that are not very chaste.
"See to do your duty! Or you will be punished.."
To my sentence, I see Yeosang hold back a laugh.
"Yes sir"
Hea tells me, incinerating me with a look as she bows, and I move to let her pass.
"I imagine the punishment would be in the bedroom.."
My cousin says making fun of me.
"It's not like you're thinking. I'm just having fun"
"Apparently it's a family vice to have fun with the servants"
He says when we start walking again.
"Don't tell me that you too .."
He looks at me raising an eyebrow,
"Oh my god Yeosang! You are about to get married and still go with the maids"
My mother gave me the news a few days ago, and I'm happy; so at least for a while she will be distracted from finding a wife for me.
"I don't even know who my wife will be yet ... so I have fun with beautiful girls without commitment as long as I can"
I can't even imagine marrying a woman I don't know.
"I can't blame you. Then I propose to drink like never before today! To celebrate my return and your freedom"
And try to forget a broken heart..
"Finally the Wooyoung I know!"

Hea PV

"Finaly my dear! Why did you take so long?"
Lady Jung asks me as soon as I enter her room.
"Forgive me. Earl Wooyoung held me back.."
I say still breathless, taking a book from the desk, for the usual reading.
"..Hea I want to ask you a question. And you must answer me sincerely"
"Sure countess, ask"
I answer, sitting in the armchair in front of her.
"It's too late?"
She asks me, but I don't understand what she's talking about.
"Too late for what?"
"Have you been with Wooyoung?"
The countess's explicit question leaves me shocked, but I hasten to shake my head in denial.
"Absolutely not"
"Thank goodness! It would be your ruin, my dear, and I would suffer so much"
It seems like everyone wants to remind me how much what I feel is impossible.
"You have to keep him away, Hea"
She adds seriously
"I'll keep him at bay"
"No my dear, far away! Wooyoung is a man and if he wants he can take what he wants"
I nod, but I don't think that Wooyoung can get to do such a thing ... I still remember his fury towards the man who tried to rape Kiki.
