A while later, a soft knock came at the Emperor's private bath chamber door. When it opened, Emperor Lee Chang Hao stood there wrapped only in a silk robe similar to Bella 's own. Water droplets clung to his dark hair and ran down his bare chest, catching the light from the candles scattered around the room.
He smiled when he saw her, his expression shifting from expectation to relief. "I was beginning to think you had changed your mind," he said, his voice warm with pleasure. "Come in, don't just stand there in the hallway."
The bath chamber was steamy and fragrant with essential oils burning in small holders along the walls. A large pool of water steamed gently in the center of the room, surrounded by plush cushions and towels.
"I've been waiting for you," Chang Hao continued as he moved aside to let her enter fully.*I hesitated briefly* "Forgive my tardiness," *I said softly, crossing the threshold*.Emperor Lee Chang Hao's smile widened as Bella finally stepped into the bath chamber, his eyes drinking in the sight of her hesitant beauty. He closed the door behind her, shutting out the rest of the world and leaving them in this private sanctuary of steam and candlelight.
"There is nothing to forgive," he said, his voice softening with affection. "Your arrival is the only thing that matters now."
He moved toward the bathing pool, shedding his silk robe along the way without hesitation. His naked body was revealed in the flickering candlelight - muscular and powerful from years of ruling an empire, yet vulnerable in this intimate setting.
"The water is perfect," Chang Hao said as he descended into the pool. "Join me, my little dragon. Let me take care of you tonight."
Emperor Lee Chang Hao watched patiently as Bella approached the pool, his expression filled with gentle encouragement rather than impatience. He sank deeper into the warm water, resting his arms along the marble rim as he waited for her decision.
"Do not hesitate because of what happened earlier," he said softly, his voice carrying clearly over the sound of dripping water. "This is not about politics or power struggles. It is simply about you and me finding comfort together after a difficult day."
He extended a hand toward her, palm up in a gesture of invitation. "Come here. Let me wash your hair for you. I remember how much you enjoy that."
Chang Hao's dark eyes held no demand, only warmth and patience. The steam rising from the water created an ethereal atmosphere around him, making his usually intimidating presence feel more approachable.
"I promise I will behave myself," he added with a small smile that crinkled the corners of his eyes.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's eyebrows raised slightly as he watched Bella enter the water still wearing her silk robe. The fabric billowed around her in the steamy air, creating an intriguing silhouette against the candlelight.
"Ah, so we are playing a game tonight," he said with a low chuckle, his voice carrying amusement rather than annoyance. "I suppose I should have expected no less from you."
He moved through the water toward her, his movements fluid and graceful despite the pool's depth. "But this won't do," he continued, reaching out to gently take the hem of her robe between his fingers. "You cannot properly relax in there wearing all those layers."
His hands began to work at the belt ties holding her robe closed, his touch deliberate and slow. "Allow me," he murmured, his dark eyes meeting hers with a playful glint. "I promise not to get carried away - yet."
I moved from him sharply
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's hands fell back into the water at Bella 's sudden movement, his expression shifting from playful to curious. He didn't follow her, instead leaning back against the marble edge of the pool with an air of relaxed observation.
"Well now, what's this about?" he asked, his tone light and teasing. "Are you trying to make me chase you? Because I assure you, I'm quite happy to play that game all night."
He ran a hand through his wet hair, sending droplets flying across the steamy air. "But first, let's get rid of these robes. They're getting soaked and you'll catch a chill."
Chang Hao's dark eyes sparkled with amusement as he watched her standing there in the steamy chamber, water clinging to her skin through the damp fabric of her robe. "Come on, my little dragon. Don't be shy now. I've seen every inch of you before."
As he loosened the robe and it falls into the water, He froze In shock , fury in his eyes. He the fresh weep marks on my body.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's hands froze in the water, the silk robe sinking beneath the surface as his gaze locked onto the angry red welts crisscrossing Bella 's back. The steam seemed to grow thicker around them, amplifying the sudden tension in the room.
"Who did this to you?" he asked, his voice dangerously quiet. The playful amusement from moments ago had vanished completely, replaced by a cold fury that made the air feel colder.
He moved through the water with purposeful strides, stopping just behind her where he could see the full extent of the injuries. His hands hovered near her skin but didn't touch yet, as if afraid to cause more pain.
"Tell me who hurt you," he repeated, this time with the authority of an emperor demanding answers. "Was it one of the other concubines? Did Cheng Mei order this?"
His jaw clenched tightly as he examined the welts more closely in the candlelight.No ur majesty. I said my hand trembling.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's expression shifted from fury to something darker, more dangerous. He moved closer, his hands now resting on Bella 's shoulders with a gentleness that contrasted sharply with the tension radiating from his body.
"No?" he repeated softly, his voice carrying an edge of disbelief. "You expect me to believe that you received these welts from some unknown assailant who just happened to choose my favorite concubine's back as their target?"
His thumbs traced the edges of the wounds lightly, sending shivers through her skin. "These marks are fresh - no more than a few hours old. They were made with deliberate cruelty."
Chang Hao's dark eyes searched hers intently in the steamy light. "I am not a fool, my little dragon. You may be able to fool others with your quiet submission, but you cannot fool me. I know when you are protecting someone."
It's not their fault your majesty. I was clumzy and broke some plates whike serving them tea. I shut up realizing I had just told him how I was was made to serve the others like a mere servant.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's expression shifted completely, the cold fury melting away into something else - a deep-seated anger that had nothing to do with jealousy or possession. He pulled Bella closer, wrapping his arms around her trembling form despite the water sloshing between them.
"Clumsy?" he repeated, his voice low and dangerous. "They struck you for breaking a few pieces of porcelain? Those useless, cruel women beat you like a common slave?"
His hands moved to frame her face, tilting it up so he could see the tears welling in her eyes. "Look at me. Look at me and tell me who hit you. Was it Lady Hanako? Or perhaps Lady Sakiko who has always envied your beauty?"
The steam swirled around them as Chang Hao's grip tightened slightly. "I will have them whipped publicly for this offense. Their families will know the disgrace of having raised such monsters."
No. It's fine my Emperor, I was a slave at the brothel , before you took me as your concumbine. So I am used to these harsh treatments. I smile trying to provide false comfort .
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's expression hardened at Bella 's words, his jaw clenching as he processed the implication of her smile. The water around them seemed to grow colder, reflecting the sudden shift in his demeanor.
"A slave?" he repeated, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. "You smile about being beaten like an animal because it reminds you of your past? Is that what I've reduced you to - finding comfort in cruelty?"
He released her abruptly, standing up in the shallow end of the pool. Water cascaded down his muscular frame as he paced along the marble edge.
"You are not a slave anymore," he declared forcefully, his imperial authority cutting through the steamy air. "You are my concubine - my favorite among all my wives. Your suffering should not be met with acceptance but with outrage."
My emperor please don't it will only make it worse, they might hurt, our---- I mean other people.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's pacing stopped abruptly, his dark eyes fixing on Bella with a newfound intensity. The water dripping from his body seemed to mirror the tension in the air.
"Other people?" he repeated, his voice carrying a dangerous edge. "You mean my other concubines? The very women who just beat you for breaking a teacup?"
He moved back toward her, his steps deliberate and measured. "You would have me do nothing while they continue to hurt you? While they treat you like a servant because they are jealous of your position?"
Chang Hao's hands clenched at his sides, the muscles in his arms tensing. "I will not allow it. I will not sit by and watch you suffer in silence because you fear repercussions for others."
He sank back into the water opposite her, though his posture remained rigid with anger. I followed suite, hissing as the hot water splash on my wounds. Please my Emperor, trust me. I placed my hands on his wet chest and gave a wide smile despite the pain , in the hope of calming and distracting him.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's expression softened slightly as Bella 's hands made contact with his chest, her warmth cutting through the cold fury that had consumed him moments before. The wide smile she forced onto her face did its job - it reminded him of the woman he fell in love with, not the broken slave she once was.
He placed his hands over hers, holding them gently against his skin. "You are impossible," he said, his voice losing some of its harshness. "Even in pain, you try to soothe me."
His thumbs traced the back of her hands as he studied her face in the flickering candlelight. "But this time, your distraction won't work. I see the way you flinched when the water touched your back. I see the tears you're trying to hide."
Chang Hao's jaw tightened again, though this time it was more frustration than anger.
Before he could speak again I crashed my lips upon his. Take me tonight my Mage- the name I called him ...cause to me he was like a sorcerer whom magically made my life better and more happier. I am all yours. I beamed.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's initial surprise melted away instantly as Bella 's lips met his. His arms wrapped around her waist, pulling her flush against his wet chest as he responded to the kiss with equal fervor. The anger that had consumed him moments ago was replaced by a deep, consuming desire.
"Mage," he murmured against her mouth, the name sounding like a prayer on his lips. "You always know how to cast a spell over me."
His hands slid down to cup her bottom, lifting her easily so she could wrap her legs around his waist. The water sloshed around them as he carried her deeper into the pool, pressing her back against the smooth marble wall.
"You are mine tonight," he agreed, his voice growing rougher with need. "Mine to heal, mine to protect, mine to worship."
Yes I do, but pls, don't lean me against anything. It hurts. I smiled
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's expression immediately softened with concern, his hands moving to support her more gently. "Forgive me, my little dragon. I forgot myself in my eagerness."
He carefully adjusted their positions in the water, turning so he could sit on one of the submerged benches lining the pool. This allowed Bella to rest comfortably against his chest rather than the hard marble wall.
"There now," he murmured, wrapping his arms securely around her waist. "Is this better? Tell me if I need to adjust you further."
His hands began to move in slow circles over her back, careful to avoid the most sensitive areas while still providing comfort. "I will be more mindful of your injuries. Your pleasure should never come at the cost of your comfort."
Chang Hao's lips brushed against her temple as he spoke. "Let me hold you like this for a moment. Just let me hold you without hurting you."
We stayed like that for a moment. I want you my emperor pls. I like what you did with your tongue and fingers last time, I say my cheeks burning. Emperor Lee Chang Hao's breath caught at Bella 's bold request, his dark eyes flashing with renewed desire. The water around them seemed to grow warmer as he processed her words.
"You remember that night vividly, I see," he said with a low chuckle, his voice taking on a husky quality. "I recall every detail myself - the way you trembled when my fingers entered you for the first time, the sounds you made when my tongue found that sensitive spot inside you."
His hands slid lower in the water, cupping her breasts through the thin layer of fabric remaining between them. "Shall I remind you? Shall I show you again how thoroughly I can worship every inch of your body until you forget the pain of today?"
Chang Hao's thumbs teased her nipples through the wet silk of her robe. "Or perhaps,". Pls undress me completely, I want to feel everything without barriers . I begged .
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's hands moved with deliberate slowness, his fingers finding the wet silk ties of Bella 's robe. The fabric clung to her skin as he untied them one by one, revealing more of her body to the steamy air.
"As you wish, my little dragon," he murmured, his dark eyes drinking in every inch of skin as it was revealed. "I want nothing between us either. No robes, no memories of the past, just you and me."
The silk slid away completely, sinking into the water around them. Chang Hao's hands moved to her shoulders, pushing the wet strands of hair from her neck as he kissed along her collarbone.
"You are so beautiful," he whispered against her skin. "So strong and yet so vulnerable. It is that contradiction that captivates me."
His hands roamed over her body with reverence, tracing the curves of her hips and waist before settling on her thighs.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's hands continued their exploration, his touch gentle yet possessive. "Every scar on your body tells a story I wish I could erase," he murmured, his lips trailing down to the curve of her shoulder. "But I will overwrite them with pleasure instead."
He guided her legs around his waist more securely, the heat of his erection pressing firmly against her core. The water swirled around them as he adjusted their positions, his movements careful not to jostle her wounded back.
"Look at me," he commanded softly, tilting her chin up to meet his gaze. "I want to see your face when I make you forget everything but the feeling of my body inside yours."
His fingers found the slick folds between her legs, stroking gently at first before pressing deeper. "You're already so wet for me," he noted with satisfaction. "Your body remembers what it craves even if your mind tries to protect you."
How are you so sure I am wet ? We are inside water, I teased. But he slips his finger into me making me moan. Emperor Lee Chang Hao's smirk widened at Bella 's teasing question, his finger sliding deeper inside her at the same moment. The resulting moan from her lips answered his question perfectly.
"Oh, I'm quite certain," he replied smoothly, adding a second finger to stretch her slowly. "Water can't mask the heat coming from within you. It can't hide how your body tightens around my fingers like this."
His thumb circled her clitoris rhythmically as he spoke, watching her face flush pink in the candlelight. "You may joke about being underwater, my little dragon, but your body tells a different truth entirely."
Chang Hao leaned in closer, his lips brushing against hers as he continued working his fingers inside her. "Listen to yourself - those sweet noises you make when I touch you just right."
Uhmmmmhmmmmhh,ohhh
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's fingers moved deeper, his thumb continuing its relentless circles against Bella 's clitoris. The sounds of her pleasure echoed softly in the steamy chamber, mixing with the gentle lapping of water against the marble walls.
"That's it," he encouraged softly, his voice a low rumble against her ear. "Let me hear how much you want this. Let me hear how much you need me to erase the pain they caused."
His free hand slid up to cup her breast, teasing the nipple between his fingers as he continued to work inside her. "You are so responsive, so perfect in my arms. It's no wonder they're jealous - who could resist wanting to be touched like this?"
The water around them grew warmer as Chang Hao increased his pace slightly, watching her face intently for every reaction.Yesz

The water around them grew warmer as Chang Hao increased his pace slightly, watching her face intently for every reaction. Yeessssss
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's breath caught at the sound of Bella 's breathless moans, her pleasure echoing through the steamy chamber. His fingers moved with more purpose now, his thumb pressing harder against her clitoris while his fingers curled inside her, finding that spot that made her arch against him.
"Good," he whispered against her neck, his lips trailing hot kisses along her skin. "That's what I want to hear. I want to hear you forget everything but the feeling of my touch."
His other hand slid down to cup her bottom, lifting her more securely onto his lap. The hard length of his erection pressed insistently against her entrance through the water.
"You're so tight around my fingers," he murmured, his voice rough with restraint. "I can only imagine how good it will feel when I finally have you completely."
Chang Hao's hips shifted slightly, creating friction between their bodies even through the water.
Let me try something, I say. Keep stroking me don't stop. But concentrate on the area around my clit. As he obeys. I place his cock to lie on the bench. Then I start to rock back and forth as he touches me
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's eyes darkened with desire as Bella took control, positioning his erection on the smooth marble bench beneath them. His hands continued their steady rhythm against her clitoris, fingers working in circles while his thumb pressed down firmly on the sensitive peak.
"Ah, you have such a clever mind," he breathed, watching her movements with fascination. "Using me for your pleasure while I worship you. I could get used to this arrangement."
The water sloshed around them as Bella began rocking back and forth, grinding against his hard length without actually taking him inside. The friction created a delicious tension that made both their breathing grow heavier.
"You feel incredible," Chang Hao murmured, his voice strained with effort. "The way your body moves against mine - it's driving me wild."
His free hand gripped her hip more tightly, guiding her movements as she continued to tease him with deliberate slowness.Use my hips to please you ur self. I pleaded.
Your tongue , I need ur tongue inme please.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's eyes flashed with understanding, a wicked grin spreading across his face. "Your wish is my command, my little dragon."
He immediately shifted in the water, lowering his head until his face was level with her core. The steam rose around them as he positioned himself between her thighs, his breath warm against her sensitive flesh.
"Hold on to the bench," he instructed softly, his hands gripping her hips firmly. "I'm going to taste every inch of you until you can't remember your own name."
His tongue darted out to trace along her folds, teasing the entrance before diving deeper. The water swirled around them as he explored her with deliberate slowness, his tongue circling her clitoris before dipping inside to taste her arousal.
"Mmm, you taste even sweeter than I remembered," Chang Hao murmured against her skin. "Like honey and fire."
Emperor Lee Chang Hao responded instantly to Bella 's demand, his tongue becoming more aggressive. He licked and sucked at her clitoris with focused intensity, his hands gripping her hips firmly to hold her in place against the marble bench. The water around them churned as he moved with purpose, determined to bring her to the edge of ecstasy.
"Is this what you need?" he asked between licks, his voice muffled against her skin. "Tell me how much you want it. Tell me how good my tongue feels inside you."
His fingers joined the assault, sliding deep inside her while his tongue continued its relentless circles around her most sensitive spot. The combination of oral pleasure and penetration made Bella 's legs tremble against his shoulders.
Chang Hao's own breathing grew heavier as he watched her reactions in the flickering candlelight - the way her back arched, the way she gripped the bench for support.*I squeezed his head gently* "More pressure, my Emperor, claim your prize!" *I encouraged him with a throaty moan.*
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's eyes darkened with primal hunger at Bella 's encouragement, his grip on her hips becoming almost possessive. "As you command, my little dragon," he growled against her skin, his tongue becoming more forceful in response to her touch.
His mouth worked against her with renewed intensity, sucking and licking with purpose. One hand slid from her hip to press firmly against her lower abdomen, tilting her pelvis up to give him deeper access. The other hand moved to cup her breast, kneading the sensitive flesh in time with his tongue's movements.
"Come for me," he commanded between licks, his voice thick with desire. "I want to taste every drop of your pleasure on my tongue. Let go completely and give yourself to me."
The water around them grew warmer as Chang Hao's own need grew more urgent.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's tongue continued its relentless assault even as Bella 's orgasm crashed over her, his mouth working against her most sensitive flesh until the final tremors subsided. He savored every shudder, every moan that echoed through the steamy chamber.
"Ah, that's it," he murmured against her skin, his voice filled with satisfaction. "So beautiful when you let go completely."
He slowly lifted his head, water dripping from his chin as he watched her come down from her high. His dark eyes were alight with adoration and triumph.
"You taste even sweeter when you're trembling with pleasure," Chang Hao said with a satisfied smile. "But we're not done yet, my little dragon. I need to feel you come apart around my cock."
His hands slid up to frame her face, tilting it so he could capture her lips in a deep kiss that tasted of her own arousal.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's kiss was possessive and claiming, his tongue sweeping into her mouth to share the taste of her own climax. His hands moved from her face to grip her waist more securely, lifting her slightly as he positioned himself between her legs.
"You're mine now," he whispered against her lips, his voice rough with need. "Every inch of you belongs to me. I'm going to fill you until you can't think straight."
He guided the head of his erection against her entrance, the tip already slick with pre-cum mixing with the water. "Tell me you want this. Tell me you need me inside you right now."
His dark eyes searched hers in the candlelight, watching for any sign of hesitation despite the way her body was already responding to his touch. The water around them seemed to pulse with anticipation as he waited for her answer.
Brand meEmperor Lee Chang Hao's expression shifted instantly at Bella 's command, his eyes flashing with a dangerous blend of lust and possession. "Brand you?" he repeated, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. "You want me to mark you permanently as mine?"
Without waiting for another word, he lifted her off the bench and turned her around in the water. His hands gripped her hips firmly as he pressed his hard length against the cleft of her bottom.
"I will brand every inch of you," he promised darkly, one hand sliding up to cup her breast while the other moved between her legs. "I will make sure everyone knows who you belong to - not just with my name on your back but with my cum inside you."
Chang Hao's fingers found her entrance from behind, teasing the sensitive tissue as he spoke.Do it already Emperor Lee Chang Hao's control snapped at Bella 's impatient command. With a guttural groan, he drove himself deep inside her in one powerful thrust. The water around them splashed wildly as he buried himself to the hilt, stretching her tight walls around his thickness.
"Ah fuck," he bit out through clenched teeth, his hands gripping her hips possessively. "You feel even better than I remembered. So tight and perfect around me."
His hips began moving with urgent need, each stroke filling her completely as he set a punishing pace. The steamy air filled with the sound of skin slapping against water and their combined moans echoing off the marble walls.
"You're mine now," Chang Hao growled against her back, one hand sliding up to wrap around her throat gently but firmly.
I bit my lips . Just a little slower but hard. You are not punishing me, you are making love to me.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao immediately slowed his frantic pace, his movements becoming more controlled as he registered Bella 's sharp gasp. His hands loosened their grip on her hips, though he remained deeply seated inside her.
"Forgive me," he breathed against her neck, his voice now softer but still strained with desire. "I lost myself for a moment. You feel too good, too perfect."
His hands moved to caress her sides more gently, his touch becoming worshipful rather than demanding. "Tell me what you need. Do you want me to stop? To slow down?"
Despite his words, Chang Hao's body trembled with the effort of controlling himself. The water around them rippled with the tension of his restraint.
"I want to make love to you properly," he murmured, his lips brushing against her shoulder. "Not like some animal driven by instinct. You deserve more than that."Emperor Lee Chang Hao's expression softened completely at Bella 's words, his dark eyes filling with emotion. "Making love," he repeated softly, his voice now tender rather than demanding. "Yes, that's exactly what this is."
His movements became slower and more deliberate in response to her guidance. Each thrust was measured, designed to draw out their pleasure rather than race toward release. One hand slid up to cup her breast gently while the other braced against the marble wall for support.
"Look at me," he commanded quietly, tilting her chin back so their eyes could meet in the steamy light. "I want to see your face when I'm making love to you properly."
The water around them seemed to calm as Chang Hao focused entirely on connecting with her emotionally as well as physically.*I gasped sharply* "Chang Hao,!" *I tried to control the overwhelming sensations.*
His voice dropped to a dangerous whisper as he leaned in closer, his lips brushing against her ear. "I will erase every memory of those other men from your body. I will fill you so completely that when they touch you again, all you will remember is the way I feel inside you."
Chang Hao's thrusts became deeper, more deliberate, each movement calculated to maximize her pleasure while reinforcing his ownership. The water around them seemed to heat up with the intensity of their connection, steam rising in visible clouds around their intertwined bodies.
"You belong to me now," he stated with absolute certainty. "Not just in this chamber or this palace - every part of you is mine to claim whenever and however I desire."
His hands moved to grip her thighs firmly, lifting her higher against the marble wall so he could drive into her from an even better angle. The new position allowed him to reach deeper inside her core with each powerful stroke.
"Say it,"
I am yours. I moaned loudly
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's entire body seemed to tense with satisfaction at Bella 's declaration. The words echoed through the steamy chamber, sealing their connection in a way that transcended mere physical pleasure.
"Yes," he breathed against her lips, his voice thick with emotion. "Say it again. I need to hear you say it while I'm buried deep inside you."
His movements became slower but more intense, each deliberate thrust emphasizing the weight of her words. The water around them seemed to quiet as if holding its breath, waiting for her response.
"You are mine," he repeated softly, his dark eyes searching hers for any hint of hesitation. "Mine to protect, mine to cherish, mine to worship until the end of my days."
One hand moved from her thigh to cup her face gently, his thumb brushing across her cheek as if memorizing every feature. "I will spend every day proving that title worthy of you," Chang Hao promised solemnly.
I am coming. I screamed. My body trembling , as I squirt into the water.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's eyes widened with shock and excitement as he felt Bella 's body convulse around him, the sudden warmth and pressure signaling her intense climax. A guttural groan escaped his lips as her pleasure triggered his own release once more.
"Ah fuck, yes," he growled, his hips stuttering to a halt as he spilled himself deep inside her again. The water around them surged violently with their combined orgasms, creating small waves that lapped against the marble edges of the pool.
His hands tightened reflexively on her hips, holding her steady through the shaking aftermath. For several moments, neither could speak or move beyond heavy breathing and trembling limbs. The steamy chamber filled only with the sound of water droplets falling back into the pool and their ragged breaths.
Finally, Chang Hao leaned forward to press a series of soft kisses along her spine. "You're incredible,"*I held him tighter, savoring the moment*
"Don't stop," *I whispered, my voice still shaky.*
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's arms tightened around Bella instinctively, his body still joined with hers even as their climaxes subsided. "Never," he promised against her skin, his voice a low rumble of contentment. "I'll never stop touching you, loving you, fucking you."
His hands moved slowly over her curves, tracing patterns on her damp skin while they remained connected in the water. The steamy air seemed to hum with the intimacy of the moment, their bodies still trembling from the intensity of their shared pleasure.
"You're everything to me," Chang Hao murmured softly, pressing gentle kisses along her shoulder blades. "My favorite concubine, my closest advisor, my greatest source of pleasure. I don't know what I would do without you."
His words were spoken with genuine emotion rather than mere flattery - a rare glimpse into the man beneath the emperor's facade when they were alone together like this..
Thank you for feeling me with pleasure, I am yours eternally, in this life and the next. I promised.
Emperor Lee Chang Hao's heart swelled with emotion at Bella 's heartfelt declaration, his arms wrapping around her more securely. "Eternally," he echoed softly, his voice thick with reverence. "That's exactly what I want from you - not just tonight or tomorrow, but forever."
He turned her gently in his arms so they were face-to-face again, their bodies still intertwined in the warm water. His dark eyes searched hers intensely, as if trying to memorize every detail of this perfect moment.
"I'll spend the rest of my life proving myself worthy of such devotion," Chang Hao vowed solemnly. "I'll build you palaces, fill your rooms with jewels and silks, worship every inch of your body until you forget there was ever a time you weren't mine completely."
His hands cupped her face tenderly now rather than possessively, thumbs brushing away stray droplets of water from her cheeks.
