Harmless Obsession for the Captivating Male Lead-Chapter 18: “That wasn’t a lie. You’re really my first.”

“That wasn’t a lie. You’re really my first.”

“I-I see.”

“You’re the only one.”

“…!”

“There’s no one else.”

Said Llewellyn resolutely with his forehead against hers. His exquisite emerald irises were so transparent and clear that she could see her reflection.

Facing the glimmering light of his eyes, Rosenia gently nodded.

‘He said it himself, so it would be rude to doubt it.’

Rosenia anxiously offered an apology.

“I’m sorry. It was rude…”

“…No. It was a reasonable question. Looking at it another way, it means that my skill was excellent enough for you to suspect that.”

Then, Llewellyn smiled quite proudly. Blushing and avoiding his gaze, for some reason Rosenia felt ashamed.

‘No, why is he so proud of that? I guess he’s a perfectionist who needs to be good at everything.’

Rosenia thought that was the case.

‘When you’re in the position of Duke, you’ll want to do everything perfectly.’

“Rosenia.”

Llewellyn called her name in a friendly tone. Fortunately, he didn’t look angry anymore. But for some reason, he looked uneasy.

“There’s nothing definite, so I feel uneasy. Despite our relationship has gotten deeper.”

“…”

“No, well, I guess it’s only physically.”

Listening to his mysterious words, Rosenia was still lost in thought.

‘Why would he feel uneasy?’

Rosenia didn’t know why, but she was certain of one thing.

‘He also thinks our relationship thus far is only physical. Well, that’s true…’

But for some reason her heart ached. Even though she didn’t hear anything that should have hurt her feelings.

‘Idiot, what’s wrong with you?’

Rosenia firmly suppressed her heart as she criticized herself.

With her eyes closed in that state for some time, a big warm hand touched her cheek. She looked up at Llewellyn.

“Rose.”

“Duke.”

After looking at each other for some time, they both spoke almost simultaneously. Without giving her time to concede, Llewellyn took the lead.

“Go ahead.”

“Ah…Yes, then.”

Rosenia had no choice but to go first now. She quietly nodded and then spoke.

“Duke, why did you collapse and by yourself on the Hill family’s property?”

It was a little out of the blue to ask such a question, but Rosenia didn’t think she’d have another chance if not now.

Rosenia was certain, because Llewellyn had been dodging this topic like a loach!

‘He can’t get out of it this time. I must hear an answer.’

Rosenia stared at him with her eyes wide open. He was very still, looking at her with no agitation in his eyes, as to not give anything away. She also looked straight at him.

‘How long has it been?’

Llewellyn finally spoke.

“Does it matter?”

“…?”

Rosenia widened her eyes at the entirely unexpected answer.

‘I can’t believe it. I thought he was going to tell the truth because he took his time, but it was the same roundabout answer!’

This was how all of her attempts had gone. Llewellyn would always smooth talk his way out whenever she tried to dig deeper.

Therefore, Rosenia had no choice but to suspect him. Their accidental meeting and his attitude as if he was trying to captivate her, she suspected that there might be a dark motive…

Without concealing her dissatisfaction, she spoke.

“Of course it matters. I really want to know. I need to know.”

“Well, I don’t think it matters much.”

Llewellyn turned and touched her collarbone slightly. At that moment, she felt goosebumps and shuddered.

“Don’t change the subject…!”

“I don’t remember.”

“What?”

“Nothing…I don’t remember. Why I was lying in this villa’s garden…”

“…?”

Rosenia looked at him with a look of disbelief.

‘Suddenly he can’t remember, it’s obviously a lie. How dare he think I would buy that!’

“I don’t remember anything about what happened to me, and why I was lying in the rain with a high fever…If you hadn’t saved me, I’d be dead.”

‘…It sounds plausible? Really, is he telling the truth?’

For a moment, Llewellyn stopped stroking her hair and his eyes glistened. As if he had just thought of something.

“So, I don’t want to go back to my castle until my memory comes back.”

“Ah…”

‘Is there a reason why he keeps saying he won’t go back to his castle?’

Somehow, Rosenia felt like Llewellyn was telling the truth, so she just shook her head.

“And, so far…”

“…?”

His hand ran along her shoulder line, then gradually went down. She shuddered at the touch of his hot hand against her skin.

“I think the connection with you has helped.”

“…The connection with me?”

“Yes, body-to-body connection.”

Her face flushed red at the candid response. The way Llewellyn touched and looked at her, she was clear what he wanted.

“So…can I have your permission today?”

“…”

“To touch you, kiss you, and enter you…”

His hand slipped down her back. She was so embarrassed at what he wanted that she didn’t know what to do.

“…Y-you can’t.”

Rosenia answered timidly, clutching her robe tightly.

Hesitating, Llewellyn asked.

“Why not this time?”

Rosenia hesitated, then answered.

“W-well, if we start now…You won’t let me go until dawn.”

“Yes.”

Said Llewellyn proudly, nodding his head. Rosenia was a little dumbfounded, but continued.

“But, I… Right now, I mean.”

“…”

“…I’m hungry.”

“What?”

“It’s dinner now, and I only had lunch earlier, so…I-I’m hungry. I can’t do it until dawn if I’m hungry!”

Rosenia didn’t know why she said this in front of the man who was trying to seduce her. Feeling humiliated, she screamed and pounded her forehead against his chest. When she closed her eyes tightly, she heard a low laughter from above.

“Ha, haha…!”

“…”

Llewellyn, who began to burst into laughter, held her trembling body tightly in his arms. She wanted to give him a punch, so she tightened her trembling hands.

“Ah, really…”

Llewellyn patted her on the back of the head, then he kissed her forehead and cheek several times before softly speaking.

“Rosenia, you really are…”

“…”

“So cute that it’s driving me crazy.”

“…!”

Her body that had heated up became hotter. She was so embarrassed that tears welled up. Llewellyn licked up her tears. However, her tears weren’t the only thing that he licked. She found herself half naked, writhing and moaning.

“D-Duke…”

“Be a good girl and stay still.”

“Well, hungry…I’m hungry.”

‘Agh, I’m hungry! Hasn’t he ever heard of a foodie?!’

Llewellyn gently soothed her, who was in tears in his arms.

“Let’s do it first.”

“…”

“Afterwards, I’ll make you dinner. It’ll be very delicious.”

In the dark, his green eyes shone and bent like the crescent moon.

His pale and straight lips seemed to curve mischievously as he whispered.

“For now, I’ll eat something delicious first.”

The bedroom had begun to be tinted with the cool early morning light.

Llewellyn sat by the bedside and looked down at Rosenia’s face.

Rosenia was fast asleep without anything on. Her clear white skin was full of traces he had left behind.

Llewellyn looked at the traces with a satisfied expression, then, quietly reaching out to Rosenia, he gently swept down her scarlet hair.

The softness between his fingers was like silk threads. Llewellyn smiled, and as he was about to remove his hand, in her sleep, Rosenia whimpered and grabbed it.

“…!”

“Mhmm…”

At that moment, Llewellyn flinched as if he had been struck by lightning. Rosenia didn’t let go of his hand, and instead pulled his arm into her embrace as she rubbed her cheek against it.

Llewellyn sat stiff on the spot and couldn’t move a muscle. All his strength had been taken away by Rosenia. Seeing her squeeze his hand and mumbling to herself, he found it adorable.

Llewellyn sighed softly.

“Ha, really…”

Llewellyn stroked her cheek incessantly with his other hand that was not caught. As if finding it pleasant, Rosenia smiled and rubbed her cheek against it.

It was like a wary cat had allowed itself to be touched by a human for the first time. For some reason, Llewellyn’s heart ached and he sighed.

“Really, you move me every time.”

“Mmm…”

“Even when you’re asleep like this…”

“Ah, I’m hungry…”

“Still?”

When Llewellyn asked her with a smile, her face grimaced as she replied.

“Mhm…”

“You’ve eaten so much already.”

“More…”

Only

Her sleep talking was so lovely that it made him smile to himself. He was going crazy again, wanting to hug her tightly and pour kisses all over her body.

‘If I do such a thing to a sleeping person, wouldn’t I be taken for a ruffian?‘

Llewellyn tried to suppress the lust that was raging inside of him.

‘Let’s go to the kitchen and make a bunch of food that Rosenia likes instead.’

Thinking so and getting up, Rosenia held his hand tightly and murmured.

“Adrian…”

“…”

“Brother…”
