Harmless Obsession for the Captivating Male Lead-Chapter 13: ‘…What?’
‘…What?’
Rosenia blinked wildly in confusion at what she had just heard.
No matter how hard Rosenia thought about it, she couldn’t believe it had come from Llewellyn Rasiane’s mouth.
‘A place he can’t wait to feel. W-where the hell is that? Why is he driving me crazy?’
Rosenia stumbled back in embarrassment and took another step back. The way his emerald eyes gently stared at her as if looking through her heart made her unable to stand properly.
“Rose, I won’t feel you if you don’t want me to-ugh…”
Llewellyn suddenly leaned over and grabbed his chest. Startled, Rosenia flinched then hurried to his side.
“D-Duke, are you okay?”
“Ha…”
With heavy breath, his pained expression slowly eased. Soon after, he raised his head and looked at her with a frail look.
Rosenia didn’t know why, but…Llewellyn looked scared.
“Rose…If you don’t help me…I’ll die.”
At his words, Rosenia took in a trembling breath. With a resigned smile, he spoke.
“Of course…it wouldn’t be bad to die in your arms.”
“…What?”
“But, I’m still afraid to die.”
Llewellyn slipped his hand towards her. Though within distance, his hand could only wander aimlessly, unable to reach her.
“I want to live. There’s so much to be desired. Most unfortunate of all is…”
“…”
“The chance to be close to you, it’ll be lost forever.”
Rosenia hesitated upon hearing his remark.
A chance to be close to her.
‘Llewellyn Rasiane was hoping for something like that…?’
All the common sense that Rosenia had come to know now seemed incomprehensible, and she felt completely lost.
‘No matter what, he’s not himself…’
Rosenia hesitated because she didn’t know what to say, but was suddenly reminded of their households.
Reflecting upon it carefully, Rosenia thought it was quite plausible. She darted her lips and asked in a timid voice.
“The kiss with me…Was it that good?”
Llewellyn widened his eyes. He stared at her, hesitated, then soon answered with a dejected smile.
“Yes, it was great. That kind of bliss, I can’t get enough of it.”
“I-I see…”
Rosenia nodded and blushed slightly. She was now certain from his answer. She guessed they were a pretty good match physically.
‘Then it’s understandable that he wants to get closer to me…Choosing a marriage partner isn’t hard, but it’s quite difficult finding someone who you’re emotionally connected with.’
It was kind of surprising to her that the pure Duke Rasiane had such thoughts, but…
‘He’s a little out of it right now, so maybe that’s why he’s unconstrained. Wasn’t there a saying that people who suppress their desires will explode when they’re scared?’
Rosenia thought that was the case with Llewellyn.
While still thinking about it, Rosenia spoke.
“The kiss was good…Is that why you want to do other things with me?”
“…”
Llewellyn looked at her quietly, then answered after hesitating.
“Yes, I want to try everything else with you.”
“E-everything?”
“From beginning to end, everything.”
‘From beginning to end? It’s not what I’m thinking of, right…?’
Rosenia trembled with her hands tightly clasped in shock.
Llewellyn, who seemed to be still looking at her reaction, laughed out loud.
‘W-why is he laughing?’
“Ah, really…”
As Llewellyn lowered his chin, he muttered to himself with a smile on his face.
“It’s much cuter than I imagined.”
“Wh…?”
“I never thought I’d feel like eating so much.”
‘Wait a minute…what?’
Her eyes flicker, feeling a little embarrassed.
The tip of Llewellyn’s hand touched her forearm. It was only a slight touch, but with her senses on edge, goosebumps rose over her skin.
While Rosenia remained stiff, Llewellyn sighed if groaning and asked her eagerly.
“Rose, can you give me a kiss?”
“…”
“A little longer this time.”
As Rosenia hesitated and looked at him, he pleaded again in a mournful voice.
“Yes? Rose…Give me a kiss. Please think of the pitiful me…”
As usual, his eyes made her heart throbbed. Looking into those eyes made her want to fulfill whatever he wished.
“…”
Her hesitation did not long. She decided to give him a kiss.
Rosenia quietly approached and kissed him. But as if that alone was not enough, with a deep sigh, he spoke.
“Let’s have a deeper relationship.”
“Deeper…relationship?”
“Kissing, and other things…”
Llewellyn looked at her with a look of sorrow. She couldn’t take her eyes off this great beauty when he looked at her in such a wistful way.
Rosenia blinked her eyes blankly, and then inadvertently nodded her head. Then, Llewellyn pulled her in and locked her in his arms. With a dazzling gaze and bright smile, he spoke.
“Rose, you’re my first.”
‘No, I can’t be your first time!’
Only then did she come to her senses.
‘His first time, shouldn’t that be with the female lead?! I’m the villain’s sister…!’
Thump, thump.
Her senseless heart continued to speed up as it pounded her chest. She was afraid that her loud heartbeat would be heard by him, so she tried not to get any closer.
Rosenia fervently tried to get away from his bosoms. But his firm arms clasped her waist tightly. She couldn’t even move an inch.
With a gentle smile, Llewellyn spoke.
“That wasn’t a kiss just now. We just put our lips together. It was extremely brief.”
“Even so, a kiss is a kiss.”
Rosenia was at a loss for what to do with the rising tension in her mind.
A strange mood flowed between them. Rosenia felt like an invisible string was being pulled, and not knowing what would happen if it snapped. Her heart beat frantically.
“Again, let’s kiss properly.”
“Duke, are you sure you’re sick?”
“Of course, I feel very sick. Like I’m dying.”
“…”
For some reason, Rosenia had a feeling that Llewellyn was swindling her, but it was true that cold sweat had formed on his forehead. Also, the temperature she felt over his thin shirt was very hot. It was clear that his fever was returning.
‘…Fine, I better kiss him and make him feel better, or else it’ll get worse.’
That was her conclusion, so hesitating a little, she finally plucked up her courage and went in for a kiss. And then, as if Llewellyn had been waiting, his big hand came around her back.
As her lips were led by him, hot air naturally poured in and out of her mouth.
“Hmm…”
The first instance of him exploring her mouth felt smooth. But not long after, his movements began to get faster and more intense.
Rosenia flinched and grasped the hem of his shirt with both hands tightly. Her heart crazily pounded.
“Ha, Rose…”
Llewellyn lowered his lips for a moment to call out her name in a dull voice before biting her lower lip lightly. At that moment, she hit him in the chest unknowingly. He slightly smiled, then licked the part he had just bit.
“This…”
Facing each other, Llewellyn whispered.
“Is a real kiss.”
Then again, her lips were swallowed.
Her body temperature rose and she found herself short of breath. Llewellyn gave her a break whenever she was unable to hold on, but he never let stopped. Clutching her head tightly with his arms around her waist, he never let let go.
For some reason, Rosenia felt scared. She had an inexplicable premonition.
‘How long did we kiss?’
Llewellyn had finally let her rest properly.
Rosenia trembled with her hands clasped. Her body also shook. She was out of breath from Llewellyn kissing her rashly several times. She felt her exploited lips tingling.
“How was it?”
“What…?”
“The kiss. I’ve been studying hard.”
“…”
Rosenia didn’t know why her eyes flickered at such a remark. The remark gave her a strange sense of deja vu, but she was so distracted that she couldn’t think straight. She just nodded awkwardly and gave a short answer.
“It was fine…”
“Really?”
“Yes…”
Upon hearing her answer, Llewellyn smiled broadly. He looked very happy. What was worse, he hugged her tightly and kissed her everywhere on the face. Startled, she greatly flinched.
“I’ll continue to work hard.”
“What? Ah…! Now, hold on-.”
Rosenia was startled when Llewellyn slipped his head around her neck and kissed the back of it. Her body flinched as if shocked by electricity. Smiling mischievously, he looked up at her and spoke.
“It’s soft here.”
Only
“…!”
“I wonder if it’s going to be soft in other places.”
For a moment Rosenia doubted her ears. The words that had come from Duke Rasiane’s mouth.
‘Seriously, isn’t it a beast masquerading as Llewellyn Rasiane?’
As Rosenia blinked her eyes in bewilderment, Llewellyn, with an earnest look, asked her.
“Can I have your consent? Rose, I want to feel you.”
Translator’s Note:
I’ve condensed all of Rosenia’s inner monologue to hopefully make the chapters look cleaner.
