Sleeping Apart

That night, her fears were confirmed as Dohwi pounced on her like a relentless shadow.

“Dohwi, we did this yesterday. All night long!”

“Your lower lips don’t seem to agree.”

After a night of torment that left her feeling half-dead, Sohwa made a drastic decision the next day.

Sohwa had been pacing awkwardly outside the servant quarters for quite some time.

“What brings you here, ma’am?”

The servants, busy spinning silk and weaving, had already noticed her hesitant footsteps.

“Hmm, I’m looking for the servant who helped me last time....”

“Oh, she’s gone to the market to buy some glue.”

One of them replied.

Since Sohwa always had Woongsik accompany her, she rarely interacted with the servants in the weaving house.

All she knew about them was that some of them were lynxes.

“Well then, I suppose I’ll have to speak with you. I’ll be staying here from today.”

“What? Here in the servant quarters? Oh no, ma’am, that won’t do!”
