The Mind-Reading Mate: Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me?!-Chapter 130: The King’s Sweet Words

No, maybe not yet.

If she told him now, he’d probably get too excited even before they reached Moonshadow.

It might be better to surprise him later, to let him know that, without realizing it ... they were already on their honeymoon.

"Since it’ll take us several days to travel to Moonshadow and come back," Primrose began, "We’ll probably need to finish all our work before we leave."

She glanced toward the pile of papers hidden under Edmund’s desk. "And I know you have a lot on your plate, so ... I guess we won’t see each other that much until next week."

Edmund stared at her blankly, but inside his mind, everything was in chaos. [WHAT?! NO! I want to see my wife every single day!]

[But ... she’s right. I do have too much work, which means I’ll probably be stuck in my room most of the time.]

[Wait—what if I ask her to work in my room too? Then we can still be together!]

Actually ... that didn’t sound like a bad idea.

[No—what am I thinking? I wouldn’t be able to concentrate at all if she’s sitting right there in front of me.]

Primrose sighed. That was true.

While Edmund was still lost in thought, Primrose spoke again, "But we can still see each other during meals, so ... you don’t have to worry too much."

Edmund looked at her and muttered, "That’s not enough time."

[I haven’t even been allowed to hold her hand for days, and now I won’t even get to see her properly all week?]

[This ... this feels like I’m being thrown into hell.]

It might have sounded dramatic, but deep down, Primrose felt the same.

She didn’t show it, but she had been holding herself back too.

From holding his hand, from throwing herself into his arms whenever she saw him.

Even now, her hands were still resting on his arm, as if refusing to let go.

Maybe it was time to end his punishment?

After all, five days had already passed. That was enough, right?

"I know it’s too short," she said softly, stepping back. Then she whispered, "Husband ... I was thinking ... maybe I should end your punishment."

Edmund’s eyes widened in disbelief. [MY WIFE WANTS TO END MY PUNISHMENT?!]

[Stay calm. Stay calm. If I act too excited, she might change her mind and extend it!]

He took a deep breath before saying, "I’d be glad, my wife."

Primrose bit her lower lip and looked away, her voice a little shy. "But ... we might waste too much time if we do ’that’, so ... just hugs and kisses for now. Is that alright with you?"

Edmund was never satisfied with just one round when it came to making love.

If she allowed it now, they might not stop until sunrise and even though Primrose always woke up feeling refreshed afterward, she’d still end up sleeping in too late.

With deadlines looming, she couldn’t afford to waste time. Still ... her husband probably wanted it.

Besides, she had promised to let him have it once a week.

She looked back at Edmund, waiting nervously for his answer.

"That’s enough," he said, stepping closer to her. "That’s more than enough, my wife."

Primrose swallowed hard and held her breath as Edmund reached for her cheek, cupping it gently like it was more precious than any jewel.

"Why don’t you close your eyes?" Edmund’s voice was deep and soothing, like the calm waves of the sea, making Primrose’s heart race uncontrollably.

She would’ve forgotten to breathe if she hadn’t dug her nail into her palm to ground herself.

She had asked him to close his eyes once before when she kissed him, but now that he was the one asking, it felt completely different.

The way he said it made her entire body feel as hot as a fireplace.

[My wife looks so cute when her cheeks are blushing like that,] Edmund thought.

[I really want to eat her up.]

He lowered his lashes, gazing at her with the softness of a man deeply in love. [But she said no ... so I can’t go too far.]

Primrose bit her inner lip as her knees started to feel weak.

Oh no. Her husband was truly dangerous for her heart.

Without saying a word, she slowly closed her eyes. As Edmund leaned in, she could feel the warmth of his breath brushing against her skin.

His hand slid from her cheek to her chin, tilting it gently and then, his lips touched hers.

At that moment, Primrose felt like the ground beneath her had turned to jelly. Her whole body weakened, as if she might melt right into his arms.

Edmund’s other hand wrapped around her waist, pulling her closer until there wasn’t even an inch of space left between them.

He kissed her lips softly, not once or twice, but again and again until Primrose couldn’t help but think, ’Does he plan to devour me?’

[I can’t get enough of her lips,] Edmund thought. [They taste so sweet.]

Maybe it was because she’d just eaten candy, but even without that, he always said her lips tasted like honey. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Primrose never really understood that, but maybe it was something only a lycan could feel for the mate he had marked.

"Wife," Edmund whispered beside her ear, "Can I hug you?"

Primrose opened her eyes, though she avoided looking directly into him. "You ... you’re hugging me right now."

"I mean ... tighter," he said, lowering his voice to a breath. "Closer."

Primrose gently wrapped her arms around his body, her hands finding his back. "Is this close enough?" she whispered.

Edmund didn’t answer with words. Instead, once his arms moved behind her, he suddenly lifted her and brought her over to the couch.

Before she could react, Primrose found herself sitting on his lap. "You said hugging and kissing was enough!" she protested.

"It is enough," Edmund replied calmly.

"But isn’t it more comfortable like this?" He tilted his head, his eyes locking with hers. "You don’t have to stand on your toes or strain your neck."

Primrose puffed out her cheeks in a little pout. "That’s because you’re too tall," she grumbled. "It’s not fair. Everyone here is taller than me."

"But you’re the only one I like," Edmund replied softly.

Her cheeks instantly turned even redder at that.

Maybe ... maybe letting him touch her had been a mistake.

"We ... we’re only hugging and kissing, right?" she asked again. "I really don’t want to go that far right now."
