Nyx had only guessed from a few words she overheard in casual conversion that riktigt be very young but the se expected him to be this young

He looked like he was only in his teens, probably not even past his coming-of- age ceremony yet, so he only had his original name, without a courtesy name.

Compared to him, Nyx was a bit older-alreadly twenty. Her stepmother never bothered with her marriage, and her father didn't care whether she ended up as an old maid or not.

If she didn't end up with Erik, her only option would be to marry down, and she wouldn't find a good bastard.

In a world so unfair to women, a husband meant the fate of a woman's entire life. The fact that she had been so home meant her stepmother clearly had no good intentions.

Nyx's thoughts wandered for a moment. Her gaze lingered on Erik in front of her, and when the came to the realized the had been staring at him so intently that he was almost about to catch fire from the heat of her gaze. His face was red from embarrassment.

Nyx couldn't help but chuckle, as she raised her hands horizontally and spinning around in a circle, Today is your wedding day, and I've dressed like this. Can you guess who I am?"

The answer was obvious.

Erik gritted his teeth, silently frustrated with himself.

He wasn't an idiot. Seeing that bright red wedding dress, he immediately understood who she was, but his mouth didn't listen to him and he foolishly asked a dumb question.

"I... I don't think I... asked you... to come in," he stuttered when he spoke.

His cold words became disjointed, and Erik felt deeply embarrassed, his face turning even redder.

"Oh.. I didn't ask you," Nyx said, her voice dragging on as if she'd just realized something. I thought newlyweds were supposed to sleep in the same room."

"Should I leave now?" she asked, turning as if to walk away.

"No, you can't." The voice behind her was clearly anxious. "Stay, a-and come here."

In his rush, he slapped the low table beside the bed with his palm, instinctively trying to prop himself up. But when he realized what he had done, he froze and quickly sat back down.

Erik looked dazed. He didn't know what he was thinking.

Ever since he saw his new wife clearly, his brain seemed no longer under his

After teasing Erik a little, Nyx slowly stopped in her tracks, gently closing the door behind her. She then stepped around the mess on the floor, walking toward the bed and standing not far from it.

Erik nervously watched her feet, only relaxing when she had stepped past all the broken pieces of pottery. He promised himself he would never break a cup again.

It's because breaking cups means I have to call someone to clean it up, and it is such a hassle. That must be why I regret it. I'm probably regretting it because of that, Erik thought, tried to convince himself, and focused again.

"What... are you standing there for?" he muttered, lowering his gaze and not looking at Nyx. His voice was stiff. "Come here and help me change."

The room grew quiet for a moment.

Seeing Nyx still standing there, he sounded colder, his brow furrowed in impatience. "You don't know how to serve? Didn't your family teach you any manners?"

Nyx thought, Teach what manners! The way of being a wife! How to be submissive and serve my husband?"

Nyx pinched her fingers, seeing through the bluff of this foolish Pale Wolf. She decided to hold back her urge to hit him for
