I Will Seduce The Northern Duke - Chapter 105
Selina’s face, who was staring at Kalcion, gradually subsided.
It started out as a joke but got serious when Kalcion dragged the time out. The answer to this question should be short and quick. If he had smiled at any answer, she would have gone over laughing.
“…Maybe, I’m not that attractive as a woman. I didn’t know that.”
He now offended her no matter what he answered. Meanwhile, Selina turned her body around and slipped out of Kalcion’s arms.
“Oh.”
His eyes were dizzy watching Selina, who rolled over to the end of the bed and lay with her back to him.
He couldn’t even remember how they slept before they slept facing each other. The space where Selina had escaped from his arm felt like a hole. Countless invisible holes, like needle holes, were drilled in his skin like the wind was blowing through his body with each breath.
He had always heard of soldiers with penetrating wounds. The hole was as small as the thickness of a finger, but it felt like the coldest wind of midwinter blew through the hole and seeped into the bones.
Kalcion’s heart was like that now.
It was invisible, but it was clear that something had pierced him. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have made his heart ache like this.
He had to stop it quickly.
Even when he pressed his hand against her chest, he couldn’t tell where the hole was. The wind didn’t stop and froze every corner of his body. A cold he had never felt in his life took over his body. Seeing Selina’s small back in front of him… that warm and cozy body when hugged.
The next moment, Kalcion stretched out his arm, possessed.
“…Why.”
Selina didn’t shake off the arms away as he clasped her from behind, even though her cheeks were complaining. He rather procrastinated and pressed her back to his chest.
‘…Ah.’
Admiration spread through Kalcion’s heart. She finally filled one of the many holes he had.
“It’s cold.”
“…It’s cold? The Duke?”
He thought it was a funny excuse, so she also responded the same way. Nevertheless, he pretended not to know, and with all his might he lied.
“Yes. It’s warm to hold you.”
Even though it was difficult for him to open his lips at first, now, lies could easily come out. These lips were so heavy back then. He wondered if they were the same ones he struggled with. Kalcion’s acting skills seem to be quite good now.
Selina was so surprised that she turned around.
“What? Really? Are you really hurt…?”
The hole in his chest narrowed as she turned to face him and warmth rushed in like a breeze of spring.
Selina’s quivering movements as she tried to find the injured place by touching his arm made Kalcion’s face warm. The unbearable tenderness he felt without embracing has made him act as he pleases.
“…Ah.”
A groan escaped from Selina’s mouth as he hugged her tightly.
“I’m not hurt… My body is cold.”
“What’s going on?”
Perhaps because of her concern, Selina tolerated Kalcion’s unruly behavior.
Once unbridled, the beast was unruly.
He buried his nose behind her ear, where it led to the nape of her neck. It smelled sweet and cute, like the back of a cat’s head. At that moment, he understood Selina’s feelings when she buried her face in his chest and smelled deep. He wanted to lock the smell in the deepest part of his chest.
Kalcion took a deep breath, breathing slowly.
“Oh, it tickles…”
Selina shrugged him off and rubbed the top of his foot with her toes. Perhaps, she was stuffy and she groaned like a puppy. Still, instead of letting go, Kalcion hugged her tighter. His whole body felt like it had to be touched.
“Is your head where you got hurt…”
Selina, who had been squealing, relaxed her body, soon gave up, and rested her head on Kalcion’s chest.
The tight body was satisfying.
“Maybe.”
He was out of his mind, so maybe he hurt his head a bit.
Kalcion, who regained his composure, looked down at Selina and even smiled at her. It was a trick that anyone could see. They were sleeping in a sturdy bedroom where no wind could seep through, and they slept under a warm blanket, making no excuses for being cold.
Even when he thought about it himself, it was ridiculous that it would have made him laugh though what about it? He was just content now.
By the way, he can’t believe that Selina didn’t know about this, and was putting up with it without saying anything.
His chest, which had a hole punctured in it, this time jumped out like boiling lava.
‘Is this special treatment?’
Wherever she went, she was in the spotlight. It had nothing to do with being a woman or a man. There were also jealousy and longing eyes, but there were also many men who saw her as a woman and tried to do something.
It did, at least in Kalcion’s eyes. Wasn’t the Crown Prince the closest example of that?
However, Selina did not allow herself to be close to anyone—to have anyone by her side, not even exchange a single word. Compared to that, being able to hug and sleep with her like this was the perfect special treatment.
‘…I can touch her like this.’
Kalcion brushed her flowing hair, stroking her forehead, and touching her cheeks. Whether he wiped her eyelids with his thumb, brushed her nose, or fluttered on her lips, she stayed still. All she did was gaze up at him.
“Why are you fiddling like that?”
She asked, but did not avoid him or get angry at him.
Her lips were soft against his thumb. There was a moment when this touched his own lips. A tingling sensation ran through his mind as if it had been struck by lightning. Just by remembering that, thunderclouds came rushing in.
It was an astonishing thrill.
“Why did you kiss my lips before?”
Just before the sudden outing on the hunt, he remembered Selina overlapping their lips. It was he who demanded more than the Crown Prince, but he did not know that she would put their lips together.
“…U-uh, why are you asking that all of a sudden?”
The blushing Selina avoided his eyes that met hers.
“I’m curious as to why.”
“Why are you curious?”
Kalcion, who was contemplating what to answer, frankly knocked on the door instead of turning around.
“I want to do it again.”
“….!”
“It was good.”
At those words, her shoulders twitched. Even in the dark room, he could clearly see the redness of her neck. Her lips, as well as her face, were red with flush.
“If there is a reason or if I can guess the reason, then I’ll be able to do it again.”
“Well, back then, I did it because it felt like I had to do more than the Crown Prince…”
Kalcion was deeply disappointed.
He wondered if that was because of this superficial reason. Moreover, he didn’t like the fact that the Crown Prince was involved in the reason for their kiss. Still, he did not give up. There was a goal for the action, and the reason was only possible when they reached an agreement.
“Are you used to kissing the lips?”
Morning and evening kisses on the cheek were very natural. Selina made the proposal first. Although he was fine until that point, as he thought she was used to the lips, he felt uncomfortable in his stomach again.
“What…?! Ah, no matter how much I am used to it, it’s not that far!”
Selina jumped.
The response was very satisfactory. Kalcion tightened his hand on her chin, turning her head towards him. As she was forced to face him, she rolled her eyes to and fro before meeting his gaze. The eyes were as red as cherry blossoms. It seemed to taste sweet when licked.
However, what was more coveting were the lips about to burst. Kalcion’s face was skillfully drawing closer as if he had noticed it.
“Then, why don’t we try to get used to it now?”
“Why, why?”
“Because we’re lovers.”
“But, it’s not like we’re going to do it in front of other people…”
Selina mumbled and went back and forth. Still, she did not actively push him away. Her confused attitude made Kalcion even more impatient. He slammed her into his torso.
“Can’t we ?”
“It’s not that we can’t, though…”
He wanted her to be honest when she was pushed to an alley she couldn’t get out of. Kalcion drove Selina to the end of the alley.
“No?”
“It’s not that I don’t want to…”
“Then, can I?”
At the end of the alley, Selina closed her eyes tightly. Nonetheless, she did not forget the kind consideration, which put her head out so that he could find her lips.
Kalcion slowly lowered his head.
The moment their lips touched, the lightning that he had remembered fell. The numbness of the lightning that pierced him from the tip of his head to his toes seemed to have passed on to Selina, who was touching him.
Her hand that was holding Kalcion’s arm tightened as their lips touched, slowly biting the open lower lip, and gliding through the teeth with the tongue. His clothes were pulled tight enough.
“Uhpp…”
Kalcion’s lips, which started with a soft encounter, gradually revealed the true color of the north wind. He cradled the back of her head and almost laid her on the bed, overlapping their body and mingling with her lips more deeply.
Her soft body, wriggling under his body, encouraged his aggression.
“Hup, ah!”
The unbearable Selina shook her head and pulled their lips apart.
“Ah, haa—haa…!”
Selina squeezed Kalcion’s chest as she let out rough breaths.
Her breath, which was more rough than usual, leaked out of his pushed mouth. At the same time, the lips that had just met were seen again. It was drenched in saliva that they didn’t know whom it belonged to, and it was glistening in the dark.
It seemed like the only light to follow in the lost forest.
The second kiss did not require permission.
