I have to treat him kindly and tenderly. As I widened the gap in the middle of the loose shirt a bit more, traces of old scars plainly came into sight. These were scars that I’d already seen and known about, but seeing them made me feel bad all over again. If only there were no scars, it would have been a clear fair skin. When it comes to men, maybe because they don’t get exposed to the sun that much, they also have white skin. But, I can’t believe these sort of traces were left on him. How can I get rid of these? Should I ask the High Priest for help?

Using the tip of my fingers, I started to trace the scars and check them one by one. The long diagonal scar near the right rib was probably a cut by a sword, and there was a stab wound on his side. There was also an unidentified scratch mark at the bottom of his left chest. The three traces were left at certain spaces, and looking at the sizes, the culprits weren’t just any ordinary beasts. I also saw a bite mark on one of his flanks. There were no other teeth marks, apart from this pair of fangs, and by the looks of how deeply embedded the mark was, it was evident that he had been bitten by a snake. No other beast with long fangs, given the narrow gap between the puncture marks and the size of the mouth, would have been able to bite his flank properly. But…

“Was it a poisonous snake?”

Captain Jullius who was half distracted, nodded his head reflexively at my question.

“Yes, it was.”

“Fortunately, you were all right.”

It wouldn’t be a problem even if I were to be bitten by a poisonous snake since I have holy power, but this isn’t the case for Captain. I responded in annoyance and slid his shirt down past his shoulders.

“Clauen helped me.”

“That person-, no, that demon?”

Looks like Clauen has known him for a very long time if he has seen him when he was young. I’m a bit jealous, though.

“Um, can I pull up my shirt?”

“No, you can’t.”

I’m going to take it off so I can see everything. I didn’t get to see it, but that brat must have seen it, and I don’t like that fact. I mean, he is my fiancé. So, of course I should become the first when it comes to who knows about Captain well, damn you circus performer bloke. Even though it can’t be helped that the time we’ve spent together is way shorter, I’m upset. Besides, he treated his wound, which means he has even touched him already with his hands, hasn’t he? Damn it, since it has come to this, using only my hands isn’t enough. I didn’t know if there was an antidote or not, otherwise I would have used my mouth to suck the poison out. I also can’t lose to him.

However, it was difficult to put my mouth on his flank from this angle. Then, should I do it to his chest after all? I put my lips on Captain’s exposed chest.

“Ro, Roel?”

His panicked voice could be heard from above my head. Why are you surprised like that? You gave me your consent to touch you. There’s no rule that I can only touch you with my hands. So what if I want to touch you using only my lips? While I was at it, I stuck out my tongue and licked his skin slightly. As my tongue swept over his skin, I could feel Captain’s upper body flinching then trembling.

Mmm, I think… this is fine. Maybe because he had just come out after bathing, his skin was soft and smelled good. When my tongue touched the scar, it didn’t feel bad. I licked him once again and when I glanced up, I could see from his face that he didn’t know what to do. Is he mistaken about this again?

“I didn’t do it to taste you. I’ve told you that I wouldn’t eat you.”

Though, I think it should be okay to bite him once. As I thought so, I unconsciously swallowed down my saliva. I’m not going to eat him, but I bet he must be delicious. Why does he look tempting when he doesn’t even shine? Eventually, I couldn’t hold back like before and I bit his nape lightly and sucked on it. Even if I bit his skin like this and breathed in the scent of his skin, I still felt that something was lacking, and that feeling didn’t disappear. My heart clearly feels empty, but I don’t know what else to do here.

Can I find out what to do next if I read the romance book a bit more? Or do I truly have to devour Captain to get rid of this emptiness?

‘… what the heck.’

As I grew restless from the insatiable desire, I withdrew my teeth and saw that the traces left on his white nape were darker than I thought. There was a dark reddish tinge in addition to the teeth mark, that made it look as if it had been hit hard. Will this become a bruise? I think it might already be one. I stroked the mark with my hand while feeling a bit embarrassed.

“Does it hurt?”

“Not really.”

“That doesn’t mean it didn’t hurt at all though, right?”

“… Well, you did bite me.”

After all, I bit him pretty hard, so it would be weird if it didn’t hurt. While I was fiddling with the mark in silence, Captain Jullius opened his mouth again.

“It’s okay even if you bite me.”

“If you keep saying ‘it’s okay, it’s okay’ like that, I might bite you really hard, you know?”

“Even so, it’s okay.”

It’s okay? What do you mean by ‘it’s okay’? I’m not okay. Using both hands, I held Captain Jullius’s face, so that he couldn’t avoid my eyes. He may be scary for others who aren’t used to him, but not for me. I just looked into his gentle pale gray eyes then said,

“Are you going to give your neck to someone else like this?”

“No.”

His quick reply was very satisfying.

“Only for me, right?”

“Yes.”

That’s the right answer.

“I have no intention of hurting you. I did bite you a bit, but I wouldn’t truly eat you. However…”

I kissed him lightly, then continued.

“If you behave like this to others, I’ll tear you apart. I think I will lose my mind and bite you to the bones then swallow you up.”

I mean it. If Captain himself gives his neck to another bastard, I’ll swallow him first before that bastard can have a single morsel of him. Since I’m his fiancée, wouldn’t I have that much right over him?

Even so, Captain Jullius obediently complied with my selfish request.

“I got it. However Roel wants.”

“… I think I’ll do anything as I please, though.”

Isn’t he too soft? Even though he could be more forceful, I wonder when he is going to be aggressive. Do I really have to search for a wild animal trainer? I held back from sighing and put my hands down, then I puckered my lips slightly.

“Kiss me.”

“… Right now?”

“Yes. Not the morning kiss, but the one where you put your tongue in.”

Is there any way he’ll do it? I should at least make him to do something like this. If I keep encouraging him to make the first move, won’t he improve? After hearing what I said in a half-commanding tone, Captain Jullius hesitated for a moment then lowered his head. Maybe he’ll do it properly this time, and he won’t just give me a light kiss on my cheek again.

I closed my eyes in suspense with a pounding heart, and soon I felt something soft pressing lightly on my lips. Good, he put his lips properly. Although I told him to put his tongue in, this much alone was a success. But suddenly, the wet tip of his tongue slightly thrust in between my lips. Huh? Isn’t he overdoing it?

“Ju–“

The moment I opened my mouth to tell him that this much was enough, our overlapping lips pressed together harder, deepening the kiss. Then, the tongue, which was not mine, got into my mouth. Huh? Huh?

Wa, wait?!n
What is this! Why are you suddenly kissing me properly?! I’ve only done it twice, but he’s too impatient! Regardless of what’s on my mind, his tongue had broken into my mouth and began to plunder my mouth. I couldn’t avoid it and I could feel an itchy sensation rising in me as our tongues brushed against each other. I was so flustered that I couldn’t swallow the rest of my saliva properly, and the sound of something wet was faintly heard as he moved. Aargh, what is this? Why?!

Forget responding properly to the unexpected situation, I was stunned and turned stiff. In the meantine, Captain’s tongue licked my lips slightly just like what I did before and then backed away. I, I wanted him to follow my lead, but I think this is too fast! I looked at his face and its proud look, like a dog who had fetched the thrown stick, with a complicated feeling. Are you asking to be praised? Should I praise him?

“Uh… well done.”

“I tried my best to follow what Roel did.”

“I, I see……”

… He learned faster than I expected. Then again, it’s only natural because if he’s slow at learning something that used his body, his combat skills wouldn’t improve to this extent, but still, this is absurd after all. It’s just that I feel that something is weird.

“Achoo!”

Then, I suddenly heard someone sneeze. It wasn’t me, so naturally it was Captain Jullius. The sneeze lightened the awkward mood.

“Did you catch a cold?”

I should’ve told him to just put on his shirt. He shook his head briefly in answer to my question, while pulling up his shirt, which had slipped down to his elbow.

“No, the smell is…..”

“Smell– Ah, you mean the smell of cosmetics?”

I had sprayed perfume on myself.

“I also always hated the smell of cosmetics, to the point where I couldn’t breath properly in the past.”

The smell of the mixture of all sorts of spices and herbs was pungent to the point where it made your nose tingle. I have already gotten used to it now, but that doesn’t mean I like it.

“Now then, I’m going to take a bath.”

I’ll also change my cumbersome dress. I came down from Captain’s lap, and after turning him down when he offered to see me off, I returned to the main house.n
