The Smiling Death-Chapter 359: What Happened Just Now Was Nothing

Amon raised his other hand near her face and gently caressed her cheek.

"Uhm?" she was surprised by his sudden action, a soft and cute sound escaping her lips.

He continued to stroke her soft cheek for a while, feeling the smooth warmth of her skin beneath his fingers. Her skin was really soft.

Scarlett was laying beside Amon’s left side. His right hand caress her.

Scarlett looked at him with slight confusion and asked, "What are you doing?" She was confused at why he was caressing her like this. This was first time he had done something like this.

Amon answered calmly, "Nothing. I just wanted to caress you."

Scarlett frowned faintly and replied, "Hmm. I didn’t allow you to do that." Yet she didn’t push him away.

Amon shrugged lightly and said, "Is that so..."

Amon slowly withdrew his hand from her face. His shadow suddenly surged forward, wrapping around his thumb. Darkness coiled around it, slowly shaping itself into a sharp, pointy nail.

Scarlett looked at his thumb in confusion. Why had he created a nail there? She couldn’t find any reason.

Then he moved his thumb and, using the sharp tip, made a small cut on the top of his index finger. A thin line of red blood slipped out from his skin.

Scarlett’s blood-red eyes glowed more sharply.

Amon looked at her and calmly asked, "Do you want to drink it?" His voice slightly teasing, mischievous.

The shadow nail disappeared from his thumb. He raised his bleeding finger and brought it toward her lips.

It stopped just a breath away from her soft, cherry-like lips.

Her delicate nose twitched as she caught the sweet scent of his blood.

His cut finger hovered only inches from her mouth.

If this had been anyone else, she would have pushed them away long ago... or simply bitten their finger off without hesitation.

But strangely, neither of those thoughts came to her mind now.

Right now, she only wanted to open her mouth, take his finger, and taste that blood.

A faint red hue appeared on her cheeks.

Amon watched her reaction with an amused smile. He could easily guess what she was thinking.

Seeing that she still wasn’t moving, Amon finally let his finger brush against her plump lips.

"Ahm..." a soft, sweet sound escaped her mouth.

Amon didn’t stop. Slowly, gently, he pushed his finger between her lips.

She didn’t resist.

Her lips parted slightly and slowly accepted his finger into her warm mouth.

The first drop of blood touched her tongue.

Her eyes closed immediately, a blissful expression appearing on her face.

"Ahmm~" she hummed softly.

She savored the taste.

Amon could feel the warmth and softness inside her mouth as her tongue slowly moved around his finger. It slid gently along his skin, carefully licking away the blood that flowed from the small cut.

Soon her lips tightened slightly around his finger.

She began to suck softly.

Her tongue continued to swirl around it, slow and deliberate, tracing every part of his finger as she tasted the blood. The suction gradually deepened as she tried to draw more of it from the small wound.

"Hah..." Amon exhaled quietly. Enjoying the sensation.

He watched her flushed face and blissful expression with a faint smile. Her cheeks matching the color of her hair.

He didn’t know what had come over him, but he simply went with the flow. Perhaps he had wanted to do something like this for a long time.

Usually she drank his blood from his hand, biting his wrist or forearm.

But this...

This felt far more intimate.

Ba-dump

Ba-dump

His heart beat loudly, faster. He could hear it.

Ba-dump

Ba-dump

But they did not belong to him alone. Because Scarlett was in no different condition.

Her soft lips wrapped around his finger in a way that looked almost sinful. Occasionally she would loosen her mouth slightly, letting her tongue slip out to slowly lick along his finger before drawing it back inside again.

Amon leaned closer to her.

His nose buried itself in the lush strands of her red hair.

He inhaled her scent deeply. For some reason... he loved it.

They remained there on the ground, lying side by side, very close to each other. Their bodies pressed together.

Her eyes stayed closed as she continued to gently suck on his finger. Meanwhile, Amon rested his face against her head, buried in her soft crimson hair.

After a while, when both got out of their trance, they didn’t move away from each other immediately.

Rather, they now lay on their backs, staring at the branches of the tree. The grey sky above it. The flowing river made a soft, rhythmic sound.

They remained silent for who knows how long.

No one uttered a single word.

Amon blinked his eyes. What did I just do? What just happened? Even Amon was baffled at what had just happened. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

It was nothing much. Just her sucking blood from his finger. Yet it felt so wrong.

Scarlett was not much different from him. Her face was flushed, matching the color of her hair.

Amon sighed, trying to calm his beating heart.

Looking away slightly, he spoke awkwardly, "So... you see, what happened just now was nothing... I just wanted to let you drink my blood. Since you had not drunk it for a few days."

Scarlett, still embarrassed, muttered softly, "Hm... same... I also lost myself while drinking it... Don’t get anything wrong."

Amon nodded and replied shortly, "Yes."

Both agreed with each other while trying to forget what had just happened. Of course, there was no way in hell Amon was going to forget it. The same went for Scarlett.

Then again, silence followed. Neither spoke.

Scarlett shifted slightly, looking a little nervous. It was rare sight to see her nervous like this.

"Okay... umm, I guess... we should—" Amon began awkwardly.

This time she didn’t let him finish. Before he could speak further, she chimed in, cutting his words.

Looking straight ahead, Scarlett said quietly, "My name is Scarlett Bloodhart."
