ââ¦â¦.â
âThat could be why.â
I realized what I was going to say when I met Ash.
âAsh, you, I heard you went to the Imperial Palace yesterday?â
âYeah.â
âTo take me out from the family register.â
âRight.â
âYou proceed right away.â
âBecause thereâs no reason to avoid it.â
Ash touched my hair with his other hand that didnât touch the sofa. The side hair fell behind the ears.
âI was impatient to do so as soon as possible.â
ââ¦â¦.â
The body that stood close to me had a scent that irritated my nose.
He doesnât even spray perfume. Why does he smell so good every time?
Itâs not like itâs the smell that I only smell. There is a bean pod in the sense of smell.
I grabbed Ashâs hand from my ear and touched it, praising myself for not sniffing it.
ââ¦â¦you know.â
âYeah.â
âThe queen is dead.â
I told the story I heard from the emperor in a quiet voice.
âI heard the rebels cut her throats.â
Ash looked at me silently.
âSo how do you feel?â
âYeahâ¦â¦â¦â
Well. What should I say about this? Itâs neither bad nor good.
There is no feeling of comfort or exhilaration, nor is it sad.
âJustâ¦â¦Ah, I see. That kind of feeling.â
And at the same time, I was a little bit restless for no reason.
Ash looked inside my eyes as if he had read the insides of my mind that werenât added
In time, a quiet voice came out.
âThatâs enough.â
âReally?â
âYes.â
My hand, which was touching the back of Ashâs hand, was caught by Ash in reverse.
The warmth that enveloped my hands was warm. The stable temperature that was passed on made me laugh secretly.
âRight. Thatâs right. Thatâs enough.â
I learned of the existence of the queen, and I wondered what she was like, so I met her in person.
And now I hear her end.
This is enough.
Yes. I wonât think of her any more in the future. As for the dead.
I slapped myself like I was ready to do anything.
I thought Iâd hit myself one more time, but before I did, I was held up by Ash and forced to stop.
Ash grasped both my hands and looked down at me.
âLetâs kiss.â
Then he said, âIâm going to do it,â and I felt my burning ears and my mouth was watering.
ââ¦â¦whatever.â
Next, a soft touch soon pressed down on the lips.
A neat man bit my lower lip and soon the heat invaded inside.
It was a kiss that seemed as usual but was deeper and more tenacious somewhere. Itâs as if heâs trying to keep my mind out of the way.
ââ¦â¦..ha.â
Breathing came out of the air. In the middle of the monitoring lips, I opened my eyes breathing out. There was something I was curious about.
âWhy do you keep holding my handsâ¦â¦â¦.â
I couldnât finish talking. Because I found something different in my hands before that.
âHuh?â
A ring in my left-hand finger.
I saw a gold border that wasnât there a while ago. I blinked and soon opened my eyes wide.
âHuh?â
âWhat do you say?â
As if to recall the lingering imagery, I kissed his lips short again, and Ash smiled and curled his eyes.
âDo you like it?â
Ashâs voice sounded as realistic as it was floating in the air.
I shut my mouth many times. Then I barely said.
âWha, what is this?â
âWell. The engagement ring?â
Ash kindly answered me, knowing everything and asking me.
Ash lowered his eyes and glanced at the ring he had put in my left hand and stared back at me.
âAnything would be good. Evidence that my sister is no longer my sister.â
The centre of the gold ring was studded with red jewels. Just like my hair colour.
Ashâs voice continued to be heard as if I was possessed.
âLetâs go pick the next one together. Because I want to put it in the one you like the most.â
The next.
The next one after the engagement ring. I clenched my mouth, where a strange scream almost popped out. My face was in a fit of rage.
âMy delusion wasnât so far ahead of me.â
it occurred to me first that⦠Indeed, I wasnât as urgent as I looked.
Slower than Ash, at least in practice. I donât know what heâs thinking.
I wriggled my ringed hand for no reason and opened my mouth.
ââ¦â¦..when did you buy it?â
âWell, when Iâm out of my mind and impatient to get my sister out of the family register?â
âOh, yesterday.â
He was really busy all day. I kept my tongue shut again.
Then Ashâs finger touched my closed lips.
âI told you. Youâll soon be the Duchess.â
Ash must think I was surprised by the sudden development.
No, of course, I was surprised, but all the bigger appreciation was a joy. The inside of my cheek itched with joy.
I put my arm around Ashâs neck instead of saying something about this sentiment.
Then, I kissed him first, shamefully saying, âI donât have that much courage.â
With my arms tightly wrapped, I pushed the warmth in.
Ash thought that I would stop moving, and soon spread his palm wide and supported my back.
And the other hand seemed to support the lower part of the hip, followed by a flash of body.
I felt like I was floating in the air for a while and soon felt a soft touch all over my back.
I loosened my arm from Ashâs neck with my lips still on and only my posture changed.
So Iâm sure Iâm not the only one like that, but when I kiss, I sometimes feel like stuttering in the other personâs body. Like now.
I started with Ashâs back head and slowly lowered my hand. I swept away his solid body without hiding my greed.
Thatâs all it took from Ashâs interlocked lips.
ââ¦â¦..why?â
Only after I spit the words out that I notice that my voice sounds grumpy.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ha, but I canât help it. Iâm not good enough yet. Is he done already? No, right?
My heart was busily up and down.
Then Ash muttered with a subtle look.
âAre you seducing me?â
âHuh?â
What do you mean, seducing someoneâ¦â¦..
My hand suddenly caught my eye as soon as I was puzzled by an unknown word.
One hand under Ashâs clavicle, the other hand groping Ashâs waist.
ââ¦â¦..â
What are you guys doing there?
When did you get there? I was startled and quickly took my hand off.
Iâm telling you, this was never intended. Itâs just a new hand that I donât know moved at will.
I picked up a pathetic excuse and swallowed it, but I heard a voice that was somewhat cracked, perhaps because of my feelings.
âThis is not fair.â
âUh, eh?â
âI feel like Iâm seeing the end of my patience holding up with all my mightâ¦â
ââ¦â¦..â
âSomebody seducing such a person.â
The neat eyebrows were slightly more defiant than usual.
I didnât mean to seduce you. But there was something else I couldnât just swallow.
âWhat are you holding up?â
ââ¦â¦â
âWhat are you holding up?â
Ashâs eyelashes flinched.
I moved my throat to the agitation. My heart throbbed.
Then I raised my hand again, which I had removed from Ashâs body in amazement.
Then, I slowly swept the upper body muscles of Ash, who I used to look outside his clothes whenever I had to.
Every time I passed my hand, I felt every part of my hand was tense.
Ash is nervous, too.
It must be a fact of course, but somehow it felt new. I felt strangely hot.
I passed my dry sigh. Ashâs forehead was dug deep. I spoke softly, looking at the wrinkles.
âWhatever it is, I donât remember telling you to hold up with it.â
ââ¦â¦Lydia.â
Ash called my name. The pent-up voice sounded like a groan.
Why? It was a voice that made the heart bounce. It tickles my fingertips.
âDo you know what youâre saying now?â
Well, maybe I know.
No, I know. Itâs because I know too well. How can I not know?
I wasnât a dreamy, pure teenage girl. Moreover, I have memories of my previous life as an adult.
So with a face that doesnât know anything, âThe fruit of love? Isnât that a kiss?â That means Iâm old enough to ask.
Of course, I wouldnât have said that when I was a teenager, thanks to early education, but anyway.
What matters is that I am now clearly aware of how my actions can be seen.
âYeah.â
ââ¦â¦â¦â
âI know.â
I put my finger up, slipped against his tense body. My body was also struggling as if the tension was contagious.
âI know what Iâm doing.â
Come to think of it, there have been similar situations before.
It was in the Oval Office, andâ¦â¦â¦ slightly different positions and positions. Was he sitting at his desk?
I remembered the temptation I had seen somewhere in the past, and I had impulsively put it into practice.
And thanks to that, I thought I couldnât leave the office for kissing that day.
But right nowâ¦â¦â¦ well, unlike then, I donât think itâs going to end simply with a long kiss.
I donât want to let it end. All right. To be honest, I wanted to do this pretty much from the previous part.
I told you, the incarnation of desire.
When I was shovelling without knowing Ashâs mind, I hit my head against the wall by myself.
Butâ¦â¦it was before I even organized my family register, and the users didnât know that I was from a different bloodline from Ash, so I was so guilty of morality that I couldnât imagine and reveal these things.
But not now. Thereâs nothing to be bothered about now.
My fingers, with great boldness, continued to go down unceasingly past Ashâs pit of the stomach.
When I was about to reach his belly button, Ash caught it.
Ash responded to me without even blinking his eyes.
âââââ
