Chapter 184
Undercover Infiltration Duchess
Iâll Give You Everything (9)
The dragon makes Dragon Lairâs treasure, but if a mercenary defeats the dragon and steals it, it will belong to the mercenary. If someone kills a mercenary and steals a prize, it belongs to the man who stole it belongs to the extortionist. That was a matter of course.
Ownership is not guaranteed like the noblemanâs estate or private property registered in the state. If you take it away, itâs over. If you take it away, itâs mine.
Just as a treasure cannot choose its owner on its own, the owner cannot brand it as his own. If one doesnât want to lose it, they have to keep it hard. Or get rid of all the guys trying to steal.
âIf you donât keep it, youâve lived a life where things were taken away from you, Edmond. Soâ¦â
Now she understands why Edmond wants to keep her in his arms so much.
âI donât like the word âif.â Family doesnât mean anything. Itâs just painful to do it.â
âDid anything happen to you, Edmond?â
âNot in the past, but it happened when I met you.â
âMe?â
Ezet had no intention of leaving Edmondâs side. Even if he loses his title or property, she will live with this man.
But Edmond has lived a life where he doesnât know when to lose his precious treasure if he doesnât keep it right next to him. Freeing Ezet for Edmund is like staying in the tension and anxiety of losing her to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
Thatâs too harsh of a job.
âEdmond, Iâm not an object. I canât have another man at my disposal.â
âI know; thatâs why I feel more anxious.â
âWhy?â
âIf you change your mind, thereâs no way to change it back.â
Even if someone kidnapped or imprisoned Ezet, Edmond would save her at all costs. He hates it so much that he wants to separate the body from the soul by imagining it, but it doesnât collapse. If Ezet says he wants to, he can put up with it.
But if Ezet becomes fond of other men, so she tells Edmond she wants to break up.
She canât stand it.
âEdmond doesnât trust me?â
âIâm a man of no faith, so you canât expect that. I just follow you.â
ââ¦I heard you donât make painful assumptions.â
âSo I didnât think about the future.â
The human mind changes. What if Ezet is sick of Edmond and says sheâs leaving? To be honest, he couldnât think of a way.
So Edmond hated the assumption that if. It is only the present that exists. Itâs just how he feels now. Thatâs how one can live. If Ezet imagines that he may no longer accept her love, she will collapse.
âIâm used to living like itâs my last day. Thatâs how Iâve always lived like that.
âIf you donât keep it, youâve lived a life that was taken away from it, Edmond. Soâ¦..
Now I understand why Edmond wants to keep her in his arms so much.
âI donât like the word âif.â Family doesnât mean anything. Itâs just painful to do it.â
âIs Edmond scared of anything?â
âBut I donât like it if I bother you so much that you wonât be able to get up tomorrow.â
âYouâre saying I can do as much as I want, right?â
âOhâ¦â¦â
The distance that had been separated narrowed in a flash. She thought she had a broad chest on her back, and a big hand came in through the gown where her waistband was loosened.
âI havenât given permission yet.â
âThen refuse.â
Ezetâs shoulders flinched as his firm fingers groped through the soft edges. He didnât hesitate. The rejection was even more not.
Edmond kissed her ear and pushed a finger through the thick notes.
It was wet.
âI want to, but Iâm embarrassed to tell you, so I asked you to know.â
It was just like that now.
âYou want to pretend you canât beat me, donât you? I know.â
âHooâ¦â¦â
He pulled his finger and stroked the bud with his fingertip. When her husband touched the sensitive clitor*s, an intense pleasure flowed and tickled his lower stomach.
A sweet sigh flowed out of anticipation.
âOh, oh, oh, ohâ¦â¦â
âI havenât even started anything in earnest, but youâre already shaking your back.â
âI wanted to⦠Iâve been wanting to do this for a while⦠â
She had a desire since the first eye contact. While refusing, she wanted to continue to have sex with Edmond while talking. Reason only blocked him, saying that he should not follow his instincts without solving the problems at hand.
But Edmond said there was a solution. Despite not explaining the situation to herself, Ezet somehow was relieved by Edmondâs words. There is no mistake in what he does.
The boundaries of desire were lifted just by showing signs of solving the problem that was agonizing over. Ezet leaned a little to the side and spread her legs wide. She leaned on her side, and something bulky and hard touched her butt.
âEdmond wanted to keep going.â
âBecause Iâm always ready to hug you.â
Will this be similar when a couple becomes a couple? It seems that he is not the only one who kissed and shared flesh all day long and wanted to be one.
