Chapter 71.1

“You would be so uncomfortable. So I put you to bed.”

He spoke as if he didn’t understand what the problem was.

“You seem to be very tired since you slept so soundly. What the hell were you doing while I lay unconscious?”

“You…”

Yurina realized the situation again and tried to stand up. However, Raynard put his arm around her waist and pinned her down.

Although he was injured a couple of days ago, now he just smiled, showing no signs of suffering. Rather, it was Yurina who was horrified by his behavior.

“Are you okay? But your back…”

“It doesn’t matter.”

“I’m glad for that, but still let me get up.”

Yurina wanted to get rid of his arm around her waist, but Raynard put even more strength into his grip. Perhaps it seemed to him not enough, so in addition he crushed her legs with his own.

“I want some more.”

In his old habit, he now buried his face into Yurina’s neck.

In their childhood, when he did this, Yurina brushed his hair or stroked his back every time, as if comforting a small child.

This time, she couldn’t. After all, she no longer took his actions for friendly gestures.

Last night, when they were exchanging confessions, Yurina was blunt. But after, when she met Raynard in bed in the morning, her face instantly turned red. All her life, Yurina believed that she wasn’t one to be shy of men.

It looks like things were different.

Seeing Yurina blush up to her neck, Raynard laughed out loud.

“You’re just like a tomato.”

When Raynard bit her neck lightly as if he had found a real tomato there, Yurina forgot about his injury and pushed him away. Before he could find any support, Raynard flew off of the bed.

Raynard’s merry laughter followed her as Yurina hurried out.

Raynard laughed even louder as the door slammed shut.

Raised in a noble family, Yurina had a strict etiquette and never slammed doors. And if she made such a loud sound, this should be regarded as extreme embarrassment.

Whoever heard of sleeping in the same bed?

Both of his ears were now also red even at the mere thought of it. Yurina overlooked this, overwhelmed by her own embarrassment. But in fact, he was also very nervous while lying with Yurina.

Or was it just tension?

After laying Yurina down next to him, Raynard couldn’t close his eyes afterwards.

‘Besides, how can I fall asleep in front of this sleeping little human, defenseless like a child? Even if I close my eyes, the sound of Yurina’s breathing keeps trying to wake me from my sleep, as well as the proximity of her soft and warm body.’

‘Plump lips and white skin that shone in the dim candlelight. This face once appeared to me in my dreams. Now that I know that it is mine, I can’t bear the instinctive craving that keeps growing in my womb.’

‘Yes, and if I hadn’t been tormented by desire, I still wouldn’t have been able to sleep, because how I was afraid that it would all fall apart, like a mirage. The whole last evening is unreal. Everything was like a dream.’

‘A voice whispering that she likes me, soft lips that I bit and sucked until I was out of breath.’

‘I couldn’t miss my happiness, that’s why I was in such a hurry. When Yurina was out of breath, she pulled away for a moment, but after catching her breath, she kissed me again. I don’t know how many times we repeated this cycle.’

Even after Yurina disappeared through the door, he smiled for a while, albeit with pain in his right shoulder.

He told Yurina that he was okay, but the pain in his muscles was worse than expected. If you complain to the doctor and get from that medicine, everything will straighten out right away. But if Reynard went for it, Yurina would once again blame herself for what happened.

‘I’m even glad she came out.’

If she watched him all the time from the side and saw his pain, of course, there would be no end to her worries. Yurina’s crying was enough to touch the hearts of many men. Raynard didn’t want to see her cry, if that was possible.

Raynard held his breath, enduring the pain, and leaned lazily against the head of the bed. When he saw Yurina’s face turn red like a ripe tomato, a smile appeared on his lips.

‘It was so sweet.’

And although she wasn’t embarrassed at the moment of their confession, Reynard subsequently felt a change in her attitude. She must have been embarrassed by his sharp impulse and their kiss?

Reynard once again remembered Yurina’s expression at the moment of her confession, and covered his face with both hands. His cheeks burned with fire, so much so that, without looking in the mirror, he could imagine how much he blushed.
