Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 1624

Thomas didn't make many promises or say exactly how he would treat Rosalind. He only said that from now on, as husband and wife, they would work together and live their days in harmony.

On their wedding night, Rosalind felt a little nervous. When the curtain of the bridal chamber was drawn, she found herself trembling for some reason.

Before she left her family, her nursemaid had told her what to expect on the wedding night and how to be with her husband. Though she was shy, she listened carefully and thought she understood it all well. But when the moment truly came, she didn't know what to do. Her whole body trembled with nerves.

Luckily, Thomas was very gentle.

Rosalind's nursemaid had said the wedding night might not always be a pleasant experience for a young woman, but if she could endure the first few days, everything would get better. Still, she felt her nursemaid had not said everything. The closeness of their bodies, the meeting of their souls — she found that feeling very beautiful.

Of course, she kept those thoughts to herself and didn't tell Elise.

The days after their marriage were sweeter than Rosalind had imagined. She had thought Thomas would be a stern, serious man, strict and perhaps dull. But he was very attentive. He noticed her moods and took care of her feelings. When he had time off, he took her to explore nearby places.

As a commander of the city garrison, he wasn't allowed to leave the capital without permission. So, the places they visited were only around the city. Over the years, they had seen all the interesting and not-so-interesting spots in the capital.

Her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were kind to her and very understanding. They knew she had to return to teaching at the academy, so they tried not to trouble her with household matters. Knowing how tiring teaching was for her mind, Alice would even have soup prepared every day, waiting for her when she came home.

They had only been married six months, but everyone praised how healthy and radiant Rosalind looked. Her grandparents finally breathed a sigh of relief, trusting that she was truly happy.

Rosalind still remembered the winter of their second year of marriage, when she caught a cold. At that time, Thomas had been busy with the army and couldn't come home, caught up with distributing winter clothes to the soldiers.
