RAMHM - Chapter 113 < I Want You >






I flinched when his hot skin touched my cold feet, but I couldn't escape.

The thick-jointed fingers that tightened the moment I flinched caught me like a trap.

You told me to have confidence in myself.

Instead, Rhodnes licked his lips at the prominent shinbone as if marking his territory or branding it.

“Ro, Roan!”

The atmosphere was becoming too dangerous, so I called out hurriedly, but Rhodnes did not answer.

But he said it while chewing the flesh on the inside of my calf so that it wouldn't hurt.

“...Am I too cowardly?”

The lips that held a self-deprecating smile invaded the inside of my knees in the blink of an eye.

It was so dizzying that my eyes spun for a moment.

The red eyes that were still looking up at me without taking their lips off seemed to have suffocated my throat, preventing me from making even the slightest sound.

It was a sight that looked like the blood of a beast that had just had its neck cut, or like a single sliver of charcoal that had been in the fire for a long time.

I swallowed my dry saliva as my throat felt parched.

“...I’ll do whatever you say.”

“Roan?”

It was so embarrassing.

It was the first time I felt something inside me shake so violently.

Is this what it feels like to be fascinated by something?

I was always nervous and trembling in front of him, but now it was different.

His gaze, absorbed in me with all of his buttons fastened, was thousands, tens of thousands of times more sensual than that of Rhodnes in front of Doris, who had all of his buttons undone.

The breath coming out of his mouth buried in my bare skin tickled the skin on the inside of my thighs past my knees every time he spoke.

I shivered for a moment at the thrill that ran down my spine, then held onto his shiny, blond hair with both hands, signaling that I would no longer allow him to invade.

But Rhodnes frowned at me, not looking angry but rather irritated.

“So, so... for now...”

“...For now?”

His lips answered slowly, making a wet sound as they moved toward the hem of my dress, which was slightly rolled up.

The eyes of Rhodnes, who was slowly biting the hem of my dress with his sensual lips, were still staring at me.

As if squeezing the entire body with the eyes. As if slowly driving the prey so as not to startle it right before eating it.

“Roan...”

A strange feeling swirled inside me.

I got a little closer to him. A strange possessive desire to have him completely mine, just like he said, heated up like the surface of my skin where his lips had touched.

Somewhere on my body, I couldn't pinpoint, was trembling with tension and excitement.

As he moistened his dry lips with his tongue, his red gaze that had been staring intently moved straight to that spot.

I saw the eyes that seemed to be burning suddenly darken.

“You... you...”

Before I knew it, the two hands that had been holding his hair like a rope were full of strength.

The trembling of my hands must have been clearly felt in my head.

“I want you, Roan.”

I remembered his breath, entangled with mine all night long. Sweet, wet, hot.

A strong force that transcended reason and irrationality, focusing solely on me in the rain.

“To have you, what should I do... what should I do?”

I wasn't even running. I was out of breath and had to choose my words.

It was clear that he too was recalling the sensations of last night.

He rubbed the leg that his firm hand was holding tightly. I saw the corners of his lips that were still biting the hem of my dress stretch out.

Soon, the low laughter of Rhodnes filled the floor.

His deeply sunken eyes began to twinkle like stars.

And I witnessed right before my eyes the process of those beautiful stars burning brightly and changing into various colors.

Instead of answering, he gently but firmly pulled my hand away, which had been holding his hair and blocking his entry.

The plump lips that had just been biting the hem of my dress began to advance toward the place they had not been able to conquer.

Underneath the black mourning dress.

As the breath spread to the delicate flesh on the inside of my thighs, I raised my head.

The light from the chandelier hanging high in the ceiling was blinding and confusing.

Just before my sense of reason flew away, I easily twisted both my wrists away from his hand.

I pressed down on his head again, stopping him from savoring the tender flesh like a beast that had discovered a delicious meal, and he finally raised his head.

I wasn't the only one who was fascinated.

“Adrienne.”

There was a hint of inexplicable pleading in the deeply sunken voice.

“Here, this is your office...”

Not knowing what to do, I was holding on tightly to the hem of my dress when Rhodnes grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him.

Then as if he didn't want to hear it, his hot lips covered my mouth and dug right in.

The breath of Rhodnes swam freely within me.

Naturally, I felt a force pulling at the back of my head and waist, so I slowly moved my hand that was on his chest to block it and moved it up to his shoulder.

When the growl, like an angry animal, traveled past his disconnect and into my mouth, I parted my lips slightly with all my might.

His lips, which were about to follow me again, became wet and I let out a breath, but I shook my head slightly.

“I don’t like it here.”

“Adrienne, please...”

A groaning voice dispersed from right in front of my nose.

Ironically, my head, which was on the verge of bursting from excessive excitement, was desperately trying to regain my senses.

“It’s my first time. It’s too bright. It’s scary. This isn’t a bedroom.”

"...First?"

The force that had been pulling me incessantly, like a child throwing a tantrum, suddenly stopped.

The eyes that had been flashing like a crystal of bright red temptation were filled with bewilderment.

My face suddenly turned red.

“You, maybe not you, but... I'm not used to this, so...”

“You get married...”

I could practically see him swallowing the afterthought.

I hugged the neck of Rhodnes, who was standing there blankly, to hide my burning face.

“Even if I got married, I didn’t do it. After I got married, my health got worse...”

The words that came to my mind were, “Because Noevian, who tried to push me into the Crown Prince’s government, didn’t touch me.” But I didn’t say anything else.

I'm sure Rhodnes understood by now. Anyway, the important thing is that I'm new to this and not used to it.

My heart was beating so hard and fast, it felt like it was inside my head.

The same was true of the heart of Rhodnes, who was facing me. I hung on his neck and rubbed my cheek against his chest, feeling shame that was constantly rising.

“Don’t ask anymore. Anyway. I don’t want to...be here right now.”

“...”

When he didn't answer, I became anxious again.

I lifted my head slightly and looked up at him. Rhodnes was looking down at me with his neck flushed red.

“Adrienne.”

"Yes."

Immediately, he got up while holding me.

I had no choice but to hang on to his neck, my dangling legs naturally wrapped around his waist.

I could feel his chest pounding, and Rhodnes spun around, jumping up.

“...Roan?”

No, rather than spinning around in circles, I was aimlessly wandering around the office, unable to suppress my surging emotions.

When I started to feel dizzy, Rhodnes quickly sat me down on the windowsill, supported my arms against the windowsill as if to confine me, and gave me a short kiss.

Where had the sensual man who had seemed like he would swallow me up just a moment ago gone? Instead, a handsome young man, shining in the sunlight streaming in from outside the window, was looking at me as if he were looking at a wonderful work of art.

“I didn’t know I was such a cowardly and narrow-minded person.”

“Roan?”

“My heart feels like it’s going to burst when I think about the possibility that I could be your first and last.”

And then I threw myself into his arms.

The heartbeat I could hear no longer seemed to be my own, but his.

“I know you must have been driven crazy by the jealousy that surged up at times. But no matter how debaucherous your life was, I don’t really care. If you just stay by my side and don’t leave, I think I could take out my heart and give it to you.”

“Roan!”

“But when you tell me that I am the only person in this world who can reach you the deepest, I want to laugh so loudly that this palace will shake. Even if I had the whole world, I wouldn’t feel the way I do now.”

In him, who was spewing words like a machine gun with red eyes, I could glimpse the face of a boy who had achieved his first love.

“Calm down, Roan.”

“How do I calm down?”

Rhodnes hugged me tighter. My body felt like it was going to burst.

“I... I don’t really have the first and last... and the thought of you reaching the deepest part of me...”

I was just trying to calm down the overly dramatic reaction.

Rhodes gently let me go from his arms, and then his blank expression disappeared in an instant and his eyes flashed like lightning.

“You set fire to that bachelor’s heart, and now you plan to burn it so black that not even ashes remain?”

“No, that’s...”

“I didn’t know. I had such little patience.”

A smile spread across his face, trying not to laugh.

It was so picturesque that I could only stare blankly.

“Take responsibility.”

And again, he hugged me so tightly that it took my breath away.

It was around the time when I felt a sense of betrayal and despair in the situation where people in mourning clothes were unable to touch each other.

Knock knock.

A sharp knock shattered the ticklish air.

The movement of trying to bury his lips on the nape of my neck, which was tightly wrapped in a black dress, stopped.

Rhodnes' face suddenly distorted.

Knock knock.

As the face that had been ignoring me and moving again stopped, I now got down from the windowsill and quickly straightened my clothes.

“Who are you?”

Rhodnes, who had been staring at the sight with sunken eyes, answered nervously.

“Brother, I have good news!”

It was the voice of Ephero that came to mind at first glance.

Ephero, who acted like a docile sheep only in front of Rhodnes, had a voice as sweet as honey.

But Rhodnes wrapped his arms around my shoulders with a sincere and foolish hand and rested his head on my crown. It was obvious that he was suppressing his surging emotions.

I patted his hand comfortingly and wiped his still damp lips with my fingertips.

Rhodes didn't let go, grabbed my hand, and pressed it against his lips as if to say something.

Bam.

Ephero, who had little patience, opened the office door.

Ephero, whose mouth fell open when he found Rhodnes kissing my fingertips, quickly covered Victor's eyes with his hand.

“What are you doing? Let go.”

Epero's hand lowered, and at the same time, I pulled my hand from Rhodnes's lips.

Rhodnes turned his remaining gaze to Ephero with a feeling of regret.

“What’s going on? You didn’t even ask permission to come in.”

“I’m sorry, bro. But this guy has to meet Madam urgently to talk to her.”

Ephero quickly pushed Victor's back and made an excuse.

“Found it. The name of the medicine.”

My head, which had felt like it was filled with hot steam, cleared up as if it had been ventilated.

I wiped away my embarrassed expression and guided them to the sofa.

With his arms crossed, Rhodnes's gaze shifted to me, who was using his office as if it were my own, and his younger brother, who didn't hide his delight at being in his domain anyway.

“It was hard to find.”

And then I glared at the back of Victor's head, who clearly wanted to be praised by me.
