As if he knew that I had been tense the whole time, the hand that had been caressing the back of my neck slid down to my arm, spreading the heat little by little from my fingertips.
“Ah...”
His traces filled the delicate part of my wrist and the sensitive part of my arm without fail.
“...!”
And soon, when the two of us got close, I unconsciously hugged him tightly.
The field seemed to be pouring out my breath. My breath, which had become a little hotter, was already hot enough.
However, he did not hastily push me away. He gradually approached the place where I had been tense from my ankles to my knees.
Until the hem of my dress flowed down over his black hair.
“Belled...!”
The sound was surprisingly direct.
What was felt more clearly was his movement.
The tidal wave that had struck was enough to shake me.
The hem of my dress fluttered as I raised my body.
Before the cold air could even reach me, his hot body completely enveloped me.
“...!”
I let out a breath, his presence clear through the heat that hadn’t left.
He spread a heaviness and awe on my body that was hot enough to melt.
But I didn’t want to let go, that kind of thing.
My arms that hugged Belled’s neck tightened.
Are all nights like this?
Do all couples have such soft nights? Is that why people love?
Or is it because they love that they can spend nights like this?
I was confused.
‘You don’t love me.’
...If he can spend nights like this without loving me, what would a deeper night be like?
“...!”
I covered my mouth without realizing it. Belled whispered to me.
“Didn’t I tell you, you don’t have to hold back?”
You need to let out your desires. Not suppress them.
I didn’t just react to those words. He had kept his distance as if he was going to back off, but he had closed the distance in an instant.
“...!”
A faint breath that I couldn’t hold back escaped my lips. Belled let out a low laugh.
“Yes, like that.”
As if telling me to try a little more.
I could hear the sound of a heartbeat from Beled, who was embracing me.
No, it might have been mine. Thump thump, even though he wasn’t shaking, my whole body felt like it was shaking.
Is this what it feels like to be loved?
Am I being loved?
I was confused. What did I want?
When I saw him, my heart was beating, was it because I was used to his touch and wanted pleasure, or did I...
love him?
If I loved him, could I feel such intense emotions in a short period? Why did it feel like only two people were left in the whole world?
If this sudden blooming was love, wouldn’t it cool down just as quickly as it bloomed?
Then, wasn’t I just using this person for pleasure?
Then a thought suddenly occurred to me. In this person’s long life, what kind of existence would I be... in?
“...!”
Again, the warmth he conveyed scattered my thoughts before they could even take shape.
So, all that came out were fragmentary questions.
“Belled, originally...”
The question leaked out between the breaths of the field.
“Were you human?”
Belled answered without hesitation.
“Yes.”
It didn’t seem to be a secret. I felt like I had let go of something that had been bothering me for a while.
It felt like I had secretly investigated someone else.
“Are you surprised?”
I nodded honestly.
Who would believe that a demon used to be human? The temple taught that demons and humans were completely different species.
“I knew that demons were cursed by the gods.”
Belled narrowed his eyes at those words.
“If they were, they would have been. The Gods,”
Belled said, pausing his words due to movement, slowly caressing me.
“Because they didn’t want you to have the ability to threaten their authority.”
He whispered as he kissed my white knees that were clearly visible. His gaze was still focused on me.
“In short, it was God’s will to destroy all wizards who challenged His power.”
My eyes widened at those words.
“Wizard?”
Magic was long ago forgotten.
The history I had learned was that the power of the Gods was much stronger than magic, so magic was naturally eliminated.
But wasn’t that the case?
“Yes, I was a wizard.”
The man’s firm hand, which was supporting my knees, lifted my legs slightly.
“All demons are wizards. Those who tried to fulfill their desires with only human power.”
The lips touching the inside of my knees spread a tickling and thrilling feeling. My body leaned back without me knowing it.
“Those who did not simply pray to the Gods and hope for luck, but tried to realize it directly with human power.”
The hand that had been massaging the inside of my knees moved more boldly. I let out a faint breath as I swayed my body.
“From God’s perspective, it must have been very, very uncomfortable for Him.”
My raised body was gently laid to the side. His hand dug into my exposed back.
“If it was a curse, there was a curse. They were wizards.”
He twisted his lips as the hand that had been digging into my waist moved gently.
“Because He made it so that you can’t replenish your magical power through normal means, and if you can’t replenish your magical power that way, you’ll end up becoming a monster.”
My hand that held his hand trembled without me knowing. My hand, covered by his large hand, swept up my body.
Spreading the pent-up heat.
“Blocking the other side of the door and here, calling the other side of the door hell.”
“...!”
The words that seemed to disperse in pleasure dug into my head along with the word hell.
“Hell...”
“Yes.”
He lay down on my back. Then, he hugged me and whispered.
“Hell is where those who go against the will of God go, and if you don’t want to go there, you should follow the will of God.”
I clearly heard him laughing as if he was mocking me.
“In that case, I said I’d rather go to hell.”
‘I’d rather go to hell.’
I suddenly remembered the thoughts smiled had had a while ago. Wasn’t it similar?
“Ah...”
I turned my head slightly toward Belled again.
“Then is it true that you have been there since the founding of the empire?”
It seemed as if the heat did not leave his firm embrace. Even without him having to light it up, my body, which had been burning hot, seemed to melt away.
I also felt lethargic, I let out a long breath.
“Yes, do you feel distant?”
Belled tilted his head slightly and looked down at me.
“No matter how long I have existed, like this.”
He smiled as he stroked my soft body with his fingertips, leaving traces as if he were playing the piano.
“The fact that I am the one who makes your breath burn and draws out your desires remains unchanged.”
“No, actually...”
I shook my head. I did not feel any aversion or distance from him.
If I had, I might have called him human.
However, I was afraid of the greed inside me raising its head. Those thoughts would make others point fingers at me.
“What were you trying to say when you stopped?”
He narrowed his eyes.
“Why, in a place where you can do whatever you want?”
Even though he told me to reveal my desires as much as I wanted. Aren’t you still used to it?
His hand moved boldly over me.
The hand that cleared away the mess wrapped around my lower abdomen.
My breathing, which had been trembling with a strange heat, became rough.
I covered my mouth without realizing it because of the embarrassment.
“Tell me.”
Belled’s smile deepened. As if telling me to tell him before he stimulated me further.
His fingertips gently pressed and stimulated the strange sensation.
His touch, which seemed to stimulate me more but not at the same time, was tantalizing.
“...!”
“Would you tell me?”
Strangely, it didn’t feel unpleasant to be trapped in his firm arms and be asked for an answer.
Rather, my mood was about to rise. I was embarrassed by myself for that.
“Come on.”
Belled wouldn’t let me think rationally.
Finally, I exhaled deeply and whispered.
“I think Belled will live longer than me.”
Belled nodded at his words.
“I guess so.”
“Then I may be just a passing person in your life, but to me...”
Belled said firmly in response to my words.
“That’s not true.”
As if he had heard unpleasant words. His kiss touched the top of my head.
“There has never been a stronger stimulus than you, to me.”
No one aroused my desire as intensely as you.
He narrowed his eyes. As if telling me not to belittle his desire.
“...That’s not what I meant.”
I continued.
“If that’s the case for you, I think I can be with you until the end of my life... as long as we don’t break up."
I think I won’t die alone.
Belled’s movements stopped for a moment at those words.
“Ah...”
His traces filled the delicate part of my wrist and the sensitive part of my arm without fail.
“...!”
And soon, when the two of us got close, I unconsciously hugged him tightly.
