Remarried Empress

ly to see him flap his wings while asking with his eyes what had happened.

But from that day on, I was completely absorbed in work.

I was trying to keep my mind occupied so as not to fall completely in love with Heinley.

Even if I liked him, not loved him, or even if I loved him only to the point so as not to suffer, I wanted to hold that line.

Fortunately, there was much work to be done, so I didn’t need to create it.

Trade with Rwibt also progressed rapidly, as the first three test teams were formed.

Now we had to wait for the results they would bring back, and based on those results determine the corrective actions to be taken.

Once I had expressed my good wishes to the three test teams before they set out on the trip to Rwibt, I returned to the office exhausted.

After working for several days on only three hours of sleep, fatigue was starting to get the better of me.
I drank two cups of strong coffee, but my eyelids still felt very heavy anyway.

In the end, I seemed to have fallen asleep.
When I opened my eyes, my body was tilted to one side.

Why hadn’t I fallen? What was I leaning on now?

Looking up, I could see that I was leaning on Heinley’s shoulder.

“Heinley?”

When did he get here? Once I called him puzzled, Heinley startled and inadvertently bumped my head with his.

“It’s not too much.”

“Huh?”

“Did it bother you to see me passed out like that because of the alcohol?”

“Why do you say that?”

“You’ve been avoiding me since the day I passed out from too much alcohol.”

“I haven’t avoided you.
We always see each other at night.”

“Only at night.”

“…”

“Every time I visited you during the day you’re busy.”

“I was really busy.”

It was true.
I wasn’t trying to avoid Heinley, I was just trying to finish as much work as possible.

“I understand.”

Heinley stared at me with a frown and said,

“You’re trying to avoid me by being busy, right? You work on things that could be left for later.”

“…That’s not true.”

When I answered again, Heinley took my hand firmly and asked,

“So, did it bother you that I became Queen while so drunk?”

As he held my hand firmly, he stroked the back of it with his thumb, but he wore a very worried expression.

“Absolutely not.”

I denied it again, Heinley closed his mouth and lowered his gaze.

I didn’t want to hurt him.
Really, I didn’t.
I just wanted to keep a line so I wouldn’t get swept away by the current.

It broke my heart to see Heinley sad, I felt guilty.

Should I have expressed my feelings more clearly? But how? I think I love you, but I only want to love you in moderation, should I say that?

Unable to resist the impulse, I kissed him, put my hand on his soft blond hair and stroked it, tilted my head and rested my forehead against his.

“You’re so handsome, Heinley.”

I whispered, softly kissing his face.

“My Queen… Navier.”

When I slipped my hand into his shirt and bit his earlobe, Heinley let out a low moan.

I put my feelings inside a box by force, but they finally came out, suddenly finding this man so lovely that it was hard to resist.

I slowly moved my hands down towards his pants as I caressed his entire body.

“Heinley.
Spread your legs.”

But before I could reach my treasure, Heinley tightened his legs and turned backwards.

As I wondered why he did this, he gave me a reproachful look.

“Heinley?”

As soon as I spoke his name, his mouth opened and closed a couple of times.

I don’t know why, but he had a very complicated expression.
After a while, Heinley covered his face and asked,

“My Queen.
Are you only… interested in my body?”
