Chapter 223: Cai Yan... Why?



His arms tightened around her small waist, pressing her soft breasts against his muscular chest as they embraced one another. Asher wanted to feel her warmth and closeness even more. He felt like he was drowning in this blissful happiness as he immersed himself deeper and deeper into this sweet moment, not wanting to let go of this special person whom he had found.

Their kiss became more passionate as the minutes passed, and Cai Yan's body grew hotter and hotter. Asher began stroking her slender back and running his hands up and down her silky hair while their tongues continued to dance together, sharing a fiery passion between them.

After a few moments, Cai Yan pulled her head away from his lips, separating herself from him while still staring at his eyes with a loving expression on her face. She wiped off his remaining tears from the corner of his eyes with her fingers as she gave him a smile that could melt anyone's heart.

"I am sorry, but we shouldn't continue this further. Our souls aren't strong yet to withstand such intimacy in this Dream World. If we continue, the consequences will be devastating for both of us." Cai Yan apologized with a red face. She was burning with desire for him, but she couldn't let this relationship progress any further. At least not now.

Hearing this, Asher didn't respond but hugged her tighter and rested his forehead against hers. He took a deep breath and exhaled before asking, "Cai Yan... Why? I don't know much about you, and yet, I feel drawn to you. My heart aches for you, even though I don't remember knowing you before this moment. So please tell me, why am I feeling this way towards you?

Why do your words sound like you've known me all along? How come your gaze feels like you've been waiting for me to return for years? Why does my heart skip a beat when I look into those beautiful eyes of yours? How can I explain to myself that I want to protect you and treasure you, even though we're strangers? Why do I want to make you mine?"

She looked at him with a soft smile as she listened to his questions, her expression growing sadder with every word he uttered. After a brief pause, she spoke in a calm voice while stroking his cheek with her thumbs, "My dear, you will soon understand why I am the way I am right now. And when that time comes, you'll also learn the truth about our past and what binds us together.

But for now, I hope you can trust me when I say that I love you with all my heart. No matter what happens from now on, I promise to stay by your side forever. I will support you in all aspects as long as you let me, so please believe in my words and let me be by your side. That's all I ask of you."

After saying her piece, she cupped his face with both of her hands and gave him a peck on the lips again.

Asher closed his eyes as he relished in her warmth and tender touch, letting himself sink deeper into her embrace as he breathed in her scent, which was reminiscent of the pleasant aroma of flowers on a sunny spring day.

'Sigh... This is too much. I've just met her, but why does she seem so important to me?' He wondered before activating the Astral Nexus Core Orb in secret to check whether he was under some type of illusion technique used by her.

While their tongues intertwined in a sensual dance, she felt his fingers digging deep into her skin, causing her to whimper in pleasure. She shivered at the sensation of having him touch her everywhere as he explored her body, leaving marks all over her smooth skin as he claimed her as his own.

After a couple of minutes, he released his hand from her ass and grabbed onto her cheeks with both his hands while pushing his tongue deeper inside her mouth. Then, the very next moment, he pulled her tongue in between his lips and began sucking it like it was a delicious treat.

The sensation made Cai Yan lose her mind, causing her to let out a series of muffled moans, which sounded like music to Asher's ears.

He felt his body heating up with lust for her, wanting to strip off her clothes and take her here and now. However, he didn't do so as he remembered what Cai Yan said earlier; that their souls weren't strong enough to handle such stimulation in this world.

So he restrained himself as much as possible by focusing his attention on her tongue alone, treating it as his main priority as he teased and toyed with it while eliciting sweet moans from her throat.

As he twirled his tongue around her own, Asher could feel the smoothness and suppleness of her tongue, which reminded him of a soft and delicate piece of meat. It was so enticing that he couldn't help but suck on it harder, trying to draw out more of its sweetness.

It was almost like he was drinking honey, and he was addicted to its flavor. The more he played with it, the more he craved it. Like a thirsty man in the desert, he couldn't get enough of her taste.

And just like that, their kiss lasted for several minutes as they savored each other's mouths, feeling their tongues sliding against each other in perfect sync. He found it difficult to keep himself from devouring her entire body, and he wished that they could make love in reality, where they could feel the full effects of their passion without the risk of damaging their souls.

Finally, after a good while, Asher pulled back from the kiss and stared at Cai Yan with a mischievous smile on his face as he licked his lips, tasting the remains of her saliva on his tongue. "You're so adorable, Cai Yan. I can't wait to make you mine in reality." He declared as he leaned forward and planted another gentle kiss on her forehead.

After he finished speaking, he noticed that a faint blush had formed across her cheeks. Her lips curled upwards in a cute smile as she whispered back, "Me too."

He grinned upon hearing this and hugged her tight, holding her close to his chest as if he were afraid of losing her forever. Cai Yan closed her eyes and snuggled against his broad torso, inhaling his masculine scent while listening to his steady heartbeat. She felt so comfortable that she wanted to spend the rest of her life like this, basking in his warmth and affection.
