District 42-Chapter 332: Love

Casper couldn’t tell how long it had been since he last kissed. He wasn’t able to forget how it felt like to kiss someone you like, but now that he was doing it for real, it seemed like his imagination couldn’t reproduce that feeling just right.

As the soldier was quite controlled, he never bothered too much because of that lack of intimate contact, but he couldn’t deny that it was good to do it again.

During all that time in District 42, his relationship with Vick dragged for too long. He didn’t want to take her out of his mind by any means all the time. She calmed his mind, somehow. Even though her personality wasn’t exactly what they would call soothing, she had that effect on him.

In the middle of all those issues and suffering, although she was the cause for most of them, she seemed to be a tranquil lake where Casper could rest assured.

In truth, most parts of the good moments that he had in that place were due to her.

Casper noticed all of a sudden that he was thinking too much instead of just living that moment.

He stopped to get his mind too busy. After all, he wanted to record that scene on his mind. He wanted to memorize those feelings and never forget how it felt like when Vick’s warm and soft lips were pressed against his.

Casper separated from her for a little while, catching his breath.

"Is this your first time doing something like this?" He asked, looking at her face.

Vick was blushed in a vibrant red. Her eyes showed how embarrassed she was.

That was the first time that Casper saw Vick’s face for real, and witness her expression changing like that was something alluring. He wouldn’t be able to take his eyes off her even if he wanted to.

"Yes, it’s my first time. Kissing isn’t something that our folk do often. Actually, commoners can’t even do this much, only Jarls. A-And I never involved myself with someone like this." She bit her lower lip, looking away from him.

Although they knew each other for a couple of months, she never saw Casper glaring at someone like he was doing with her now. It wasn’t anger, nor joy, nor sadness. It was just an intense look. He seemed to be staring at her soul, not her physical body.

Vick was getting somewhat unstable with those feelings arising in her body. It was making her mind get in a fuss. However, she didn’t want to stop. Instead of backing away, she was pressing her body more tightly against Casper’s, and wrapping her arms around him more firmly.

"Figured. You are a Princess, after all." He chuckled. "Are you sure that you want me to be your first lover?"

"Don’t put your nose at my decisions. I wouldn’t be doing such a thing if I didn’t want to."

Casper approached her face again, slowly. Vick waited for him, but with a bit of urgency. She couldn’t wait for their lips to be sealed again.

Their second kiss was intenser than the first. Deeper as well.

She got surprised once Casper’s tongue entered her mouth, but it felt so good that she accepted it with no protests.

Vick got truly embarrassed once his hands began to explore her body. That was the first time when her power of decision was split so badly. At the same time she wanted to push him away as soon as possible, she also would like that he continued.

That was her first time touching a man’s body as well. She won’t interact much with the opposite sex aside from Canute and Ari, mostly. But they never had such intimacy like touching each other, not even holding hands or something like this.

It was overbearing for her to go from zero to one hundred so fast, but she got used quickly. Casper made her feel respected and comfortable during all those moments, which was perfect for someone so naive as her on that field.

At that stage, they couldn’t measure how long it passed since they first started with their kisses and caresses. Anyway, be it a second, a minute, or an hour, they enjoyed it the most.

When they realized, they were laying on the bed together. Casper was on all fours on top of her. She was hugging his neck and bringing his face closer to hers as they continued to kiss.

For a moment, they needed to catch their breaths again, but couldn’t wait to do more and more.

Their consciousness came back for a second, and they realized the stage that they reached.

"I don’t think we should keep going like this..." Casper said, even though he wanted to keep his mouth shut and not let openings for her to hesitate. He was still a man, after all.

"Y-Yeah, but... I want you so badly." She said, in a somewhat teary voice. "I want you, but..." She glanced at her legs.

Casper watched painfully as a tear ran down her face.

"I want to make love with you. I want you to be my first. But, like this, it won’t be the same. I can’t move, I wouldn’t even feel how it is like." She put one arm in front of her eyes, trying to hide her face.

Casper gently took her arm out of the way, looking intently at her pained expression. It was heartbreaking to see her like this, but he didn’t want to be a coward there. He didn’t want her thinking that she shouldn’t show her weak side to him.

Anyhow, Casper didn’t know what to say to her.

"I adore you. I love you, really." Vick declared, hugging him.

Casper got flabbergasted once he heard those words actually coming out of her mouth.

"I love you." Ana’s voice echoed in his mind as well, making him tear up.

The soldier hugged Vick’s delicate body as if it was made of porcelain.

’She said it, huh? Who would guess that this prideful and cold princess would say something like this?’
