Predatory Marriage (Web Novel)

Chapter 231 – Doubts (1)

Translator: Atlas / Editor: Regan

Somehow, Leah had the impression that if Ishakan set his mind to teaching bad guys a lesson, he might eradicate evil from the world. But she did not ask any further questions. He didnt seem eager to provide details.

This didnt please her, but she wasnt so curious that she would press. He was the King of Kurkan. There were probably many things he couldnt explain to her.

“What would you say to bathing together?” Ishakan asked, and bit the tip of her nose. “Your husband has been working hard.”

Leah started at the sting of the bite.

“Bathe?” She already felt embarrassed at the bare thought of stepping naked into a bathtub with him. She averted her eyes. “But the hot water…”

“You dont have to worry about that.” Ishakan lifted her into his arms and headed for the bathroom. How was it possible to bathe without water?

“Mura did a good job,” he said as he made his way to the marble tub, which was already filled with water. She still felt anxious about stepping naked into the tub, but unexpectedly, she didnt have to.

Ishakan sat her on the edge of the tub without removing her nightgown, leaving only her feet to dangle in the water. It felt good with the warm water swirling around her calves. Beside her, Ishakan matter-of-factly began to remove his own clothes.

She hadnt expected him to undress so readily. Leah didnt know where to look as he let his clothes fall on the floor, stepping entirely naked into the tub. His sculpted body was perfectly proportioned, his muscles well-defined and harmonious in motion. Her eyes accidentally met his.

Ishakan sank into the tub with a slight smile, the water level rising around his large body. The tub was large enough that he didnt have to bend his knees as he immersed himself, pushing back his wet hair to bare his high forehead.

“Do you still smell blood?” He asked, sitting up and resting his arms on either side of the tub.
