Chapter 149
There wasnât a single part of the paragraph that could be read aloud, from beginning to end.
I couldnât believe the novel I had confidently picked up without the slightest hesitation was an e****c novel. And Gerard had caught me with it. Heat began rushing to my face.
Gerard turned his body fully toward me and propped his head on the arm resting against the back of the sofa.
âWhat exactly do you like? Being tied up? Or being made to cry?â
ââŚâŚâ
âTo be honest, Iâve never really thought about that sort of thing, but if you want it, I can do as much asâŚâ
When I merely bit my lip, he stopped speaking.
âLook at how embarrassed you are. I canât even tease you.â
I hid the book behind my back and seized his hand again as though snatching it away.
Why did embarrassing things keep happening whenever I was in front of Gerard? I hated the version of myself from moments ago who had boasted about reading books.
âYour energyâs good. Arenât you purifying me a little too passionately?â
âYou need to hurry home. Itâll get colder once dawn comes.â
âAre you still embarrassed?â
ââŚWhat do I have to be embarrassed about?â
âThen why wonât you look at me?â
I stubbornly refused to raise my head. No, it would be more accurate to say that I couldnât.
âIâm just tired.â
I wanted to finish the purification quickly and send him home, but merely holding hands didnât seem to be enough.
âClose your eyes. You absolutely canât open them.â
âAlright.â
He answered obediently, but his words couldnât be trusted. I covered his eyes with my palm before pressing my lips to his.
Rather than looking surprised, Gerard wrapped an arm around my waist as though he had been waiting for this and pulled me toward him. I used my other hand to grab his arm and push it down.
When I slipped my tongue into his moist mouth, his tongue entwined deeply with mine. The hot breath flowing into me and the saliva melting together made the air around us turn sticky in an instant.
It was far more caressing than purification required. I avoided his tongue, closed my lips for a moment, and opened them again.
âMmphâŚâ
In that brief interval, a wet piece of flesh pushed into my mouth this time.
It was too fast and skillful to block.
He swept through the tender inside of my mouth like an invader, then pressed the tip of his tongue near my throat and drew out a moan. The act of arousing me so expertly left me breathless.
I pushed away the flesh rubbing against my tongue and spat it out.
âPlease, stay still so I can purify youâŚâ
âDonât worry. Itâs working well.â
His body leaned toward mine. The old sofa creaked, and one side sank far too deeply. Before I knew it, the back of the hand covering his eyes was rubbing against the bridge of my nose and my forehead.
âStick out your tongue. Iâll finish quickly.â
I hesitated at the way he coaxed me gently, like a witch offering a poisoned apple.
âYou said it gets colder at dawn.â
At those words, I had no choice but to do as he said.
I tilted my head back slightly, pressed my lips to his, and stuck out my tongue. Once he felt it, he gently sucked my tongue into his mouth.
Suck. The wet sound rang blatantly between our joined lips. After sucking until the root of my tongue tingled, he moved from my lips down beneath my chin.
The hand covering his eyes had already lost its purpose and was wandering aimlessly.
My face grew damp as he sucked everywhere as though I were candy.
âHaa, ngh⌠Stop, I think this is enough.â
Before I knew it, I was lying fully back against the sofa. His firm thigh had slipped between my bent knees, and he subtly rubbed himself against me.
