Chapter 63
The Terminally-Ill Side-Character Inside of a Martial Arts Novel
It wasnât mere impulse.
It wasnât a conclusion reached suddenly, nor was it pressure that I had to do something for him.
This wasnât such a complicated and headache-inducing action.
It was simply an expression.
That I trust you, love you, and want to know more about you. An expression of wanting to connect the me and you that I didnât know.
So it meant that it was okay for me to allow you everything.
When the hesitating hand seemed to move, lips were overlapped again.
The same kind of kiss as before, but his soft tongue brushing against mine was warmer and moister. His hands that were holding me had wandered before, but now they were unwavering.
Hyuk Dojin and I were both responding to each otherâs actions, and he would shudder once more at my response.
In this way, without saying a word, we were learning how to treat each other.
His tongue and mouth that separated from my lips went down along my jawline, kissing my chin, and in the meantime, his hands moved to untie the straps of my clothes.
He flicked open the collar, licked my shoulder, and went down further, delving deep into my collarbone and chest.
Like a baby wanting its motherâs milk, he wanted me like that.
âUghâ¦â
I tried hard to suppress the sounds coming out from between my lips by biting my fingers, but the sounds didnât subside.
It was embarrassing and my head felt dizzy.
The sensations I had never felt before and the deep humiliation that came with it. But if it was with Hyuk Dojin, not anyone else, I could allow all of that.
So there was no need to try hard to hold back the rough breaths that came with the foreplay and the heat.
âAh!â
I gripped the back of his hand that was grabbing my thigh. Then Hyuk Dojin grabbed my hand as if he had been waiting and came up. His eyes stared directly at my face. In the darkness, his eyes were filled with me.
What kind of expression am I making? What kind of face am I facing him with? I wanted to see, but I didnât have the confidence to look at my own face, so I turned my head. I thought I could hear Hyuk Dojinâs slightly rough breathing, then a small voice rang in my ear.
âMaybe I had hoped for this day.â
ââ¦â
âThe day I first saw Sowol, the day I held you in my arms as you collapsed. That was a turning point.â
His breath touching my ear was ticklish. When I tried to avoid it by turning my neck, he clung to me persistently.
âWhen the hardened land, dry and cracked like a withered land, cracked open with the person named Sowol entering, I could finally feel that I was alive. The emotions I tried not to reveal to anyone after my mother passed away, Sowol exposed them dozens of times a day.â
I turned my head at the sound of a small laugh. He lightly kissed me.
âEven when I tried hard to turn my head, you were captured at the end of my gaze. Even when I tried to hide my emotions beneath my consciousness, you drew out everything of mine like a well. And in the end, youâre drawing out this impulse that Iâve never felt before.â
His hand moved gently.
âAhâ¦!â
The hand that had been moving around my chest slowly grabbed my hand that had come up to meet it.
âWife, you are the only and last person who made me want to hold someone. So.â
When his words ended, the hand he had been supporting slowly collapsed. Hyuk Dojinâs weight falling on top of me pressed down on me just right.
And the moment we became one, I had to bite my lip.
Hyuk Dojin looked at me and quietly said:
âIt would be troublesome if you think of running away.â
* * *
I slowly opened my eyes at the rustling sound. Beyond the blurry vision, the brightened room slowly came into view.
I blankly looked at one spot in the room, turned my head to look around, then slightly raised my body. With a rustling sound, the blanket covering my upper body slipped down.
The winter chill seeped in through the gap. Only then did I realize that I was completely naked.
When I hurriedly pulled the blanket up, a small laugh was heard from the side. As I turned my head, Hyuk Dojin was lying next to me, looking up at me.
He smiled brightly as our eyes met.
âGood morning.â
ââ¦â
I slightly opened my mouth at his nonchalant words. Hyuk Dojin wasnât wearing a single thread on his body. Because I had pulled the blanket as I got up, the blanket was slightly hanging on his waist, and his curved legs and body reaching up and down were greeting me.
Hyuk Dojin stared intently at my rolling eyes, then raised his body and approached me closely.
His hand gently wrapped around my shoulder, embracing me, then pushed me back down onto the bed and climbed on top.
Unlike the darkness, the room filled with light was too bright and clear. And that light was blatantly illuminating Hyuk Dojin.
I tried hard to hold onto my eyes that wanted to roll around freely regardless of the ownerâs will. It was a gaze that seemed like it would go down with the slightest mistake.
As if he knew or didnât know my heart, Hyuk Dojin stared at my face intently, then grinned and opened his mouth.
âIf you want to look, you can look. Didnât you see everything yesterday?â
âThatâ¦!â
âDid you only look? Didnât you also touch and lick?â
I felt my face grow hot at his words. The events of the dawn that I had forgotten came back to mind. The first night I experienced was painful at first, but it was only a fleeting moment compared to the emotions I would feel later.
My body, having gotten used to it, quickly adapted, and in the deep darkness, the shame was far too lacking to stop the inherent pleasure.
All night, I clung to him and let out moans no different from sobs. On a normal day, a man would have been restless and let me go with such reactions from me, but when I struggled, Hyuk Dojin only rested for a moment and kept pushing me relentlessly.
He pushed until I felt like it was the end. Even when I tried to stop him, saying I couldnât take it anymore, Hyuk Dojin went beyond that end.
Even now, when I think of the events at dawn, my body tingles.
The pleasure I had never felt before evoked emotions that were hard to shake off. Hyuk Dojinâs arm slowly rose and touched my shoulder again. His eyes had turned lecherous.
âI told them not to come in this morning. There wonât be anyone near the room.â
âThat meansâ¦â
Hyuk Dojin grinned.
âI was waiting because it was a bit lacking last night.â
âWaitâ¦!â
I tried to stop him as he rushed at me with eyes as sharp as a beast.
However, my body, which had become sensitive due to the bodily conversation we had until dawn, tingled even with a slight touch.
In the end, the arms I had swung to resist went down and were caught by him again.
âAh⦠noâ¦â
The resistance was literally momentary.
* * *
When I finished washing my exhausted body after the morning lovemaking following the dawn, Hyuk Dojin was grinning from ear to ear for some reason.
Unlike me, who was worn out, Hyuk Dojin, who had used his body the most, looked rather fine and overflowing with energy.
I sat on a chair to eat the meal prepared while I was washing, picked up the chopsticks, and glared at Hyuk Dojin.
He met my eyes while serving food and grinned.
Seeing that he might take me back to bed at this rate, I hurriedly fixed my eyes on the food.
âHoâ¦â
âA-anyway, youâre not going to work today? Arenât you busy?â
âItâs alright. I plan to spend time with you today. So you donât have to worry.â
Itâs not that Iâm worried about Hyuk Dojin, but Iâm worried that I might wither away if I stick with him any longer.
As I was trying hard to avoid him who kept trying to create a strange atmosphere, a knocking sound was heard at the door.
âCome in!â
I urgently called out for them to come in and turned my head.
It was a good way to escape from Hyuk Dojin, who kept his eyes shining.@@novelbin@@
As the door opened, a maid cautiously revealed herself. It was the maid who was holding the baby yesterday.
Since she wasnât the maid who attended to me and Hyuk Dojin, I looked at her with a puzzled face, and she bowed deeply.
However, her expression seemed troubled, so I waited, thinking there might be a problem, and the maidâs mouth opened slowly.
âUm⦠Young Cult Leader. I have something to tell you, so I rudely knocked on the door. I apologize.â
Hyuk Dojin clicked his tongue, displeased with the maid who had disrupted his plan.
At his blunt action as if telling her to speak, the maid hesitated for a moment and cautiously said:
âWell⦠something strange happened.â
Something strange? Hyuk Dojin kept glancing at me, then fixed his gaze on the maid when her reaction was unusual.
âSomething strange?â
Did something serious happen? Did the Holy Stream League or Lee Seonghak do something? Or something on par with that?
âDid someone see poison being put in the food? Or did they see someone else trying to pierce through the people of my pavilion? If not that, thenâ¦â
âAh, no! Itâs not that. Itâs not something dangerous like that⦠No, maybe it could be dangerousâ¦â
At the maidâs behavior, rambling incoherently, Hyuk Dojin narrowed his brows and got up from his seat.
What could it be that she canât speak properly like that?
I also waited for the maidâs mouth to open quickly. And just as the maid was about to open her mouth with a small sigh, the tightly closed door swung open and a clear laughter was heard.
âHahaha!!â
Along with the laughter, a young child entered. With brown hair that looked to be about four years oldâ¦
âGolden eyes?â
The maid hurriedly grabbed the child who was running straight to me and quickly opened her mouth.
âItâs this child! Until yesterday, it was just a baby, but overnight, it has already become like thisâ¦!â
ââ¦Youâre saying that child is the baby from yesterday?â
âYes! Itâs the baby from yesterday!â
Hyuk Dojin quietly looked at the child wriggling in the maidâs arms and approached closely.
Then, like yesterday, the child glared at Hyuk Dojin, who was approaching, and bared its teeth as if growling.
At that sight, Hyuk Dojin faltered and sighed.
âUntil last night, it was clearly a baby wrapped in a cloth, but as if someone had replaced it overnight⦠Ah!â
Even while the maid was urgently opening her mouth, the child, who had been constantly wriggling, finally escaped from her hands and ran to me in an instant.
Hyuk Dojin tried to reach out and grab the child in the middle, but the child rolled on the floor and avoided his hand.
âKya!!â
Then it accurately nestled into my arms. The child rubbed its brown hair against my head and smiled as if it was so delighted.
Not knowing what to do with the child, I hurriedly looked at Hyuk Dojin.
He alternately examined me and the child, then said with an extremely serious face:
âWere you the childâs mother?â
ââ¦â
Is he getting revenge now? I glared at him with my eyes narrowed.
