Chapter 236: Access Denied?
“So how would that go exactly?” Cero asked before laying a kiss on her thigh.
“...” Raya remained silent for a moment.
It was only a couple of seconds later that she let go of his index finger, which she had been holding with her teeth.
“I’m staying clear off the tips of your fingers by the way.”
“Really?” He asked, stroking her leg. “You know there’s only Poison if I decide to produce it.”
“You’re sure there’s not a drop that stays there hanging?” Raya asked, holding his hand by the wrist. She studied each of his fingers, before depositing a kiss on the back of his hand. “Or... You know... Traces that remain.”
“That’s a good question.” Cero whispered as he grabbed her hips and pulled her a bit closer. “Would you like to test that? A guinea pig might be necessary.”
“That’s not funny.” Raya whispered with a defiant gaze, holding the tip of index finger an inch away from her tongue. “What if you end up poisoning me?”
The Paru moved closer, until his face was inches away from hers.
“Then I’ll have to kiss you intensely and passionately, deeply enough to suck all of the Poison out of you.”
“Really?” She pushed against the ground with her elbows, pushing herself up and further closing the distance between them. “I’d like to see that.” Raya whispered, her lips an inch away from his.
“Well...” Cero pulled back, before lowering his head towards her stomach while keeping his gaze locked on her. “I would only do that as a last-case solution.” He whispered before kissing her stomach.
“Is that...” Raya gasped from his kiss, her shoulders pushing forward. “So?” She lay a hand on the back of his head, stroking him gently. “I might already be poisoned though. From being around the Poison, and its source.”
“You’re saying that I’m like a Poison to you?”
“Well...” Raya moved her hips closer to his knees, causing her face to once again be inches away from his. “You do have a certain intoxicating effect on me.”
“Then...” The Paru lay a hand on her chest, just above her breasts, and pushed her down, causing her arms to fold and her upper back to touch the ground below again. “We’ll need to take it slow. Doses here and there.”
“So that I can build up a tolerance?” Raya chuckled.
“Yes.” Cero whispered as he lowered himself to kiss her stomach again, and stroked her side with a hand. “I wouldn’t want you to succumb too early.”
“I wouldn’t.” Raya caressed the hand he was holding her down with. “I can handle a bit of Poison.”
“What is it?”
“What... What do you mean?”
“Is there... Something you want to talk about?”
“N-No...” Raya muttered. “Nothing.” She shook her head.
“Alright.” The Paru nodded.
As his hands moved, she expected him to stroke and kiss her some more.
But instead,
“What is it?” Cero asked again, having pulled her closer until her body was stuck to his.
He had moved back and placed his legs forward, placing her right on and against him, her breasts pushed against his chest.
“It’s... It’s nothing...” Raya muttered as she looked away, unable to maintain his gaze.
“It’s definitely something.” He whispered with a smile. “My exit point can tell.”
“Sh-Shut up!” Raya chuckled despite feeling embarrassed.
“I’m waiting.” Cero said, holding her close.
“It’s just... I...”
“Come on.” The Paru urged, tightening his grip around her slightly. “I’m not letting you go until you let it out.”
Raya scratched her forehead, looked away, rubbed her face, and let out a sigh.
“I just don’t... I don’t get why...”
“Why... What?”
“Why you’re with me.”
