ML helped loosen her up with his fingers before presentation, so that might have helped. Blood may come later when it actually tore if the act gets too vigorous. Too much other bodily fluid at the moment. The description of the sensation of first penetrance ("hot stick of fire" iirc?) is very on point though.
Girls, I know women can bleed for reasons other than being virgins, I also know not all virgins bleed during their first time. Thank you for pointing it out but I brought it up for story telling type shi
Most writers depict bleeding as a sign of a woman's first time and it could be used as additional drama in this scene where trust is already all over the place and Chae-Woo is already losing it, I was just thinking about how it could turn out. I even wrote "IF she bleeds". I'll emphasize the IF this time.
Anyway, I was just thinking of hypotheticals for drama's sake, thanks for sharing your thoughts on blood and the hymen lmao
I'll put it like this, if, for whatever reason, he realized this is her first time despite them being "married", what would he think? Would he just jump to conclusions that they must have been that bad of a couple? Or will he spiral and start to believe what she said just before this that they were never married?
If you want to humor my blood comment. Maybe he will go into self hate mode because he just assumes he was too rough, or she plays it off saying she got her period. That's what I was thinking about anyway, but idk.

I'm thinking this the whole time but, isn't she a virgin? And if so, what would chae-woo think if she bleeds and he realized they've never been together despite being "married"?
She's been mentioning for the past few chaps that she's kept herself away from relationship and people in general, and how she knows about sex but it doesn't sound like it's from experience at all, so I'm so curious about that now...
