Augustine stared at Su Yaoyao, his gaze fixed on her bitten lip. It was as succulent and tempting as a ripe cherry. His eyes narrowed, desire quietly stirring within him.

He slowly raised a hand, his long fingers gently cupping her chin. The motion seemed soft, yet it carried an irresistible force, tilting her face slightly upward. Then, he lowered his head, a fervent hunger in his eyes, and possessively claimed her lips.

The kiss was fierce and deep, as if he were trying to pour all his emotions into it.

His lips pressed hard against Su Yaoyao’s, urgently prying past her teeth. His tongue darted inside like a nimble fish, exploring wantonly, tangling and playing with hers.

Su Yaoyao was caught completely off guard by the sudden, passionate kiss and could only receive it passively. Her breathing instantly quickened. Following Augustine’s lead, soft whimpers escaped her lips involuntarily. Soon, they were both breathless.

Augustine eased his lips from hers slightly. His deep, enchanting voice, laced with a soul-stealing magic, whispered in her ear, "Yaoyao, say you love me."

With that, his lips moved to the shell of her ear. He started by lightly kissing her small earlobe, his tongue tracing over it like a feather, sending a shiver through Su Yaoyao. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

He then returned to her mouth, kissing and nibbling her lips once more—gently yet possessively—as if determined not to stop until he heard those words.

"I..." Su Yaoyao tried to respond, but her voice was soft and weak. Before she could get the words out, Augustine bit her lip again, just hard enough to make her cry out in a soft yelp of pain.

She was completely exasperated. ’Is he ever going to let me speak?’

At the same time, Augustine’s hands grew restless, beginning to roam slowly over her body.

His palms were broad and warm. Everywhere they touched felt as if it were being set ablaze, igniting every inch of Su Yaoyao’s skin.

His actions left Su Yaoyao panting heavily, her body twisting instinctively.

She instinctively grabbed the back of his large hand, trying to stop his roaming. "You... don’t touch me," she protested weakly. But her strength was laughably insignificant compared to his; she couldn’t stop him at all.

"Say you love me," Augustine whispered in her ear again, his voice carrying an undeniable command.

At that moment, he was like a persistent hunter, determined to capture his desired prey.

"Love you... I love you." Under his assault, Su Yaoyao went completely limp, as if all her bones had melted away.

She thought Augustine would stop after hearing the answer he wanted. But to her surprise, after a flash of satisfaction in his eyes, he kissed her again.

This time, his kiss was even more fervent, and his hands moved faster and more boldly, roaming freely over her body as if to explore its every secret.

’How did it come to this?’ Su Yaoyao felt her consciousness blurring, her vision growing hazy. Her body sank uncontrollably into the surging tide of passion.

She felt as if she were in a fiery ocean, submerged in endless waves of desire and love, unable to escape.

Augustine held her tightly, as if trying to merge her into his very being.

He used his mouth to stifle the soft moans of pleasure escaping her lips, continuing to suck and kiss her deeply, seemingly tireless.

A long while later, Su Yaoyao felt a jolt like an electric current shoot through her entire body.

In that instant, the whole world became a beautiful blur.

Augustine looked at Su Yaoyao’s stunningly beautiful appearance, his eyes filled with love and tenderness.

He placed a gentle kiss on her flushed cheek and said softly, "Yaoyao, you’re so beautiful."

By now, Su Yaoyao was too weak to reply. Her body lay limp in Augustine’s arms, her mind a complete blank.

’She felt both ashamed and annoyed.’

The physical sensations hadn’t completely faded. She knew Augustine must have done it on purpose—teasing her deliberately, luring her into this inescapable net of passion.

Just as Augustine, still lost in the afterglow and wanting more, was about to continue, Su Yaoyao slowly raised her hands. With a mixture of shyness and resolve, she gently pushed him away.

"What’s wrong, Yaoyao?" Augustine froze for a moment, his eyes filled with confusion. His voice was especially deep and hoarse, roughened by desire.

"I... I’m a little tired tonight. Maybe next time," Su Yaoyao said, biting her lip. Her cheeks were crimson as a sunset, and she avoided Augustine’s burning gaze as she explained.

’I still have to meet Lucia tomorrow,’ she thought to herself. ’If he wears me out so much that I can’t get out of bed, my precious plan to go pet something fluffy will be ruined.’

Augustine’s brow furrowed slightly, a trace of disappointment and reluctance appearing on his handsome face.

He certainly didn’t want to miss this perfect opportunity to be intimate with Su Yaoyao. After all, he had been suppressing this fire since daytime, and now that it was burning fiercely, having it suddenly extinguished by her was hard to accept.

Seeing his expression, Su Yaoyao grew a little flustered. An idea struck her, and she called out in a charmingly pouty voice, "Your Majesty~ We have plenty of time~" As she spoke, she tilted her head back slightly, her eyes full of coquettish charm, turning on her allure.

Seeing Su Yaoyao’s adorable display, Augustine’s frustration dissipated somewhat. He gave an indulgent smile and said, "Alright."

Hearing Augustine agree, Su Yaoyao was secretly overjoyed, and a relieved smile unconsciously spread across her face.

"However..." Augustine’s tone shifted. The sudden turn of phrase made the smile on Su Yaoyao’s lips freeze. A bad feeling welled up inside her.

She watched as Augustine slowly took her hand. The movement was gentle yet irresistible as he guided it down to press against his body.

Su Yaoyao’s face instantly turned beet red. She was shocked and flustered, unable to help but marvel inwardly. ’This is so...’

"N-No." Su Yaoyao instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but her strength was utterly futile against Augustine’s. He held her hand firmly in place, and she couldn’t budge.

"No. It’s not fair that only Yaoyao gets to the finish line." Augustine’s breathing grew more ragged. He leaned closer to Su Yaoyao, panting in her ear, his warm breath ghosting over the sensitive skin of her neck. "Yaoyao, help me."

His voice held a trace of pleading and desire, like the desperate cry of a drowning man, sending a tremor through Su Yaoyao’s heart...

Su Yaoyao’s fingertips trembled, and within that bewitching sound, she slowly began to respond.
