Character Profile All chapters can found here. Yunho separated himself from Heechul. He could always count on his best friend during times like these. When Jaejoong had rushed out bursting with anger, Heechul had chosen the right moment to come in and calm a frustrated, confused and helpless Yunho.
“I’ve really messed things between us.” Yunho sighed, rubbing his head which had begun hurting after all that paperwork and the fight between Yunho and Jaejoong.
“No, you have not.” Heechul comforted. “He will come around.”
“What should I do to make amends?” Yunho asked. “I have been a terrible spouse. I have left him alone in a city that is foreign to him and disregarded him for paperwork. And now, I have made him hate me after I stuck Kangin with him in replacement of my presence.”
“He doesn’t hate you, Yunho.” Heechul tried to convince his friend. “He is just upset. Plus, I think he needs to understand what entails in being the spouse of the Lord of the Eastern lands. He will have to learn that his husband will be away when it comes to political matters and guards will constantly follow him around for his own safety.”
“That may be true, Heechul.” Yoochun began, “but one requires time to adjust to these things. Jaejoong is obviously too new to the situation. In fact, we all are.”
“Yoochun is right.” Changmin supported his cousin. “We all need to adjust to the new positions we have been assigned bit by bit. For now, I think it would be wise that Yunho-hyung spends some time with Jaejoong until we have come up with an arrangement.”
“That’s a good idea.” Yunho nodded and took off to find his beloved.

Yunho had looked all over the manor but did not find Jaejoong. Where could he have run off to?
“Kangin!” Yunho called out when he saw the guard looking coming down from a staircase, looking weary.
“Lord Yunho!” Kangin greeted, his eyes seem to have a little more life now as he rushed over to where his lord stood.
“Where is Jaejoong?” Yunho asked quickly, also tired from his search.
“He has been locked up in his chambers, Lord Yunho.” Kangin reported. “He refuses to let anyone in.”
“Our chambers of course!” Yunho rushed off before he even thanked his guard. He couldn’t believe he didn’t check his own chambers to find his spouse.
--
The guards situated beside the doors to their chambers stepped aside and opened the door for their lord without any questions asked. Yunho did not need permission to enter his own room.
Yunho stepped through the set of doors and made his way to the bed chamber where he saw Jaejoong laid across their bed.
“Jaejoong…?” Yunho stepped slowly into the room, afraid that his even his heavy steps will annoy Jaejoong further.
“I do not wish to see you!” Jaejoong yelled from his position, face still buried within the pillows, refusing to look up.
“I’m sorry, beloved.” Yunho proceeded nonetheless, not ready to back down until he had made amends. “I’m so sorry for leaving you alone, I’m sorry for not being there to fulfil my promises, I’m sorry for letting a guard you’re not familiar with follow you around, I really am sorry.”
Jaejoong looked up from his position, sniffling. “So you don’t think I’m a brat?”
“No…! Of course not!” Yunho declared, surprised that this is was what Jaejoong thought of himself. “You’re not a brat! What gave you that idea?” He inched closer to Jaejoong, sitting next to him on the bed.
“Because I’m useless and I throw tantrums?” Jaejoong said uncertainly, hoping that Yunho did not think the same.
“You are not useless, my love! You’re my spouse!” Yunho exclaimed. This was crazy! Yunho didn’t know that Jaejoong thought so lowly of himself. Worse still, it was Yunho who made him feel that way.
“Well, I have nothing to contribute here! I can’t help out in the chores because you have so many servants. I can’t cook as you have an army of cooks. I can’t even help you in the planning of the ball because I’m not well versed with politics or event planning!” Jaejoong listed off all the reasons that made him feel utterly useless around here.
“Jaejoong, why did you tell me you felt his way?!” Yunho asked shocked that his spouse had hidden something so big that had been bothering him.
Jaejoong sniffed, having nothing to say. Yunho came closer to him and gently took him into his strong arms. He caressed Jaejoong’s back who sighed softy into his shoulder, exhausted from the emotional turmoil he had been through.
“Let’s start this all over again, alright?” Yunho suggested. “Today I promise to spend the entire day with you. We will go out and see the city and its people. It’ll be great fun.” Yunho promised. Jaejoong looked up at his husband and smiled while nodding.
“Then tomorrow perhaps someone, maybe even Heechul, could tutor you on politics. It’s important that you know something about the eastern politics since I’ll be taking over my father’s position as lord soon.” Yunho explained and Jaejoong agreed although the idea of Heechul did not sit well with him. Especially since he had just caught them in an embrace with each other. However, Jaejoong wanted to brush the incident off. He had already made himself look like a child in front of Yunho and bringing up his jealousy over Heechul would only worsen the situation.
“Now why don’t you get ready so that we can set off to see the city, hmm?” Yunho asked gently as Jaejoong agreed once again, this time a full blown smile on his face.

Yunho and Jaejoong walked hand in hand along the city’s cobblestoned main road. To Jaejoong, everything seemed so foreign. The eastern lands were indeed very different from the lands back in the west. Most of their roads were made of dirt and cobblestones were rare. The city was also filled with various buildings of different architecture. Some of which stood tall above the couple almost as if they were touching the skies. Back home, everyone mostly lived 2 storey houses and the taller buildings had merely 4 storeys at most. Yet here, the towers seemed endless. Even the people here were unlike those back in Jaejoong’s hometown. First of all there were so many of them! On top of that, they appeared different as well. Back home, people had lighter hair and eyes yet here everyone seemed to have stark black hair and eyes. In fact Jaejoong just noticed that his eyes and hair was a shade of light brown while Yunho spotted jet black hair and eyes.
“This is wonderful, Yunho!” Jaejoong exclaimed as he continued taking in his beautiful surroundings. Yunho beamed at his lover who seemed have his spirits lifted after what took place today. Jaejoong had been so engrossed in the looking at the magnificent buildings and surroundings that he had not paid attention to all the people bowing to Yunho and him. The people on the street had stopped doing what they had been busy with when they had seen two guards marching through the street. It is then they realized that they were in fact accompanying the newly wed Lord Yunho and Lord Jaejoong. Most of them had seen Yunho before but for many of them it was their first time encountering Jaejoong. He was indeed as bewitchingly beautiful as people who had seen him had described. His flawless complexion and astounding features did justice as to why people termed him as one of most beauteous beta-males.
While Jaejoong continued to be awed by his surroundings, Yunho took the time to bow and nod politely to the bystanders. He then steered Jaejoong to another direction where the crowd seemed to thin out. They seemed to be heading towards the battlements that surrounded the capital of the Eastern lands. The Eastern lands were indeed huge but their bustling capital sat upon a cliff that overlooked the Eastern Sea.
“Oh it’s beautiful!” Jaejoong breathed as he rushed towards the low battlements. The view was wondrous as the endless clear blue sea lay ahead of them. Jaejoong had never seen the sea before. His town had been nowhere near a shoreline and the most he got to see where lakes which now seemed like a droplet of water compared to the vast blue body ahead of him.
“Do you like it?” Yunho asked as he savoured the feeling of the cool salty breeze upon his face while spending his time with his beloved.
“Absolutely!” Jaejoong grinned as he continued looking out. This was a dream come true for him. He let the wind play with his fine hair locks as he spread his arms out, pretending that he was a bird flying above the vast blue sea. Sometimes dipping his feet in and imagining the cool water splash around.
Yunho held his arms and turned him around to face him instead. “You look ravishing.” He whispered before bending down and taking Jaejoong’s lips.
Jaejoong swore that he felt fireworks go off in his head and his toes curl in excitement. Yunho was indeed making all his dreams come true in just one moment. Jaejoong wrapped his arms around Yunho’s shoulder who continued kissing him more rigour. This…was starting to feel like home.

If the venison meat on the dinner table was not the highlight of the meal, it was definitely the red apples of Jaejoong’s cheek and his delightful laughter. He had been enthusiastically telling the occupants of the dining room about the wonders he had discovered today and how he found everything all so fascinating. Mr. Jung, Changmin and Yoochun pretended to be intrigued by his stories when in actual fact they already knew all of what Jaejoong was telling them since it was their town. However, they sat bemused at how entertaining Jaejoong was when he described things. It was truly endearing.
“I’m glad you are so enthusiastic about learning about the town.” Heechul commented. He had decided to stay for dinner after his arrival. In fact, he had announced that he would be taking temporary residence at the Jung manor in order to monitor Jaejoong and his politics classes. “I hope I will be seeing the same enthusiasm during the political lessons.”
One of the ways Yunho had decided to remedy the situation of Jaejoong feeling useless was to assign him to doing something. It was only upon seeing Heechul seated at the table in the dining room talking to Mr. Jung about some political matter, it struck him that Heechul would be the perfect person who could teach Jaejoong a thing or two. It seemed like a perfect plan to Yunho. An opportunity within an opportunity. Both his best friend and spouse could bond while his spouse found a purpose to serve.
“I will.” Jaejoong answered, his smile wavering a little.
“Good to hear.” Heechul replied back.

“I had a good time today, Yunho.” Jaejoong said as the two laid on their bed while he caressed Yunho’s chest. Yunho turned to look at Jaejoong, who looked stunning bursting with liveliness in his sheer nightdress. In return, Yunho brought up his own hand to touch the beautiful face of his other half. He brought his face close to his own and captured those luscious lips in a kiss.
With one hand under Jaejoong, cradling him close, Yunho brought his other hand to skirt up Jaejoong’s night clothes. Yunho could feel each contour and dip of Jaejoong’s body as he pressed up against Yunho. His wandering hands moved up from Jaejoong’s knees to the insides of his thighs until they reached their destination.
Jaejoong mewled into Yunho’s mouth, his arms coming to wrap around Yunho’s shoulders while he worked magic with his hands. Yunho took his time to prepare Jaejoong as Jaejoong was still getting used to doing this. Yunho alternated between going soft and slow and then hard and fast until he had Jaejoong as a withering mess. Jaejoong’s loud pants fanned against his own deep breaths as he became more and more aroused seeing his partner getting all riled up.
When Jaejoong deemed himself ready, he blindly reached to unbuckle Yunho’s breeches. Yunho helped him along by lifting himself off the bed and throwing the breeches away once they came off. Once that obstacle was overcome, Yunho rolled on top of Jaejoong. He helped Jaejoong spread his thighs further by lifting the material of his clothes further up his chest but not taking them off completely because Jaejoong looked beautiful in the translucent white cloth.
Jaejoong cried out as Yunho finally entered him. He continued moaning as Yunho moved in and out while burying his head into the junction of Jaejoong’s neck.
“You’re so so so beautiful.” Yunho whispered and Jaejoong hugged him closer, driving his body deeper into his own.
The two continued making love as the words “I love you” hung in the air when they reached their peak and sated their love for one another.
