Chapter 3 (Part 3)

“……”

“I want to be certain with you now.”

Marriage. It was something she always dreamed of when she thought of Cardin, and now it was reality. Her previously anxious heart burned brightly.

She couldn’t accept it.

“Cardin, you haven’t even regained all your memories, and marriage is…”

“I want to forget the past and start anew with you.”

“Start anew?”

“Yes.”

“What if the past comes back to you?”

“I’ll forget it.”

“How can you forget the past?”

If the past came to him, he would surely kill her.

“With you here, why bother thinking about the past? It doesn’t matter anyway.”

“You might be someone significant.”

Cardin laughed.

“I have no ambition. I just need you.”

“Are you serious? Even if you’re someone from a great family, you’d give it all up to marry me?”

“Yes.”

Her mind went blank.

‘Why aren’t you afraid of the past? Is it because you still don’t know it?’

As she stared at the ring, Cardin stood up.

“Don’t you like it?”

She spoke unconsciously.

“No.”

Cardin took the ring from the box. He lifted her right hand and placed the ring on her fourth finger.

“When I settle down properly later, I’ll get you something better.”

She stared blankly at her finger. The deep blue gemstone sparkled brightly.

“This one is beautiful too.”

She spoke as if entranced. Cardin chuckled and hugged her tightly.

“I really want to forget the past and start anew. Being with you like this feels like an opportunity.”

“……”

“A chance to live my life anew.”

She couldn’t respond. It seemed his feelings weighed more heavily than hers. Holding back tears, she remained still.

She decided to leave tonight. Before she had any more regrets about him.

*   *   *

She couldn’t even properly clear the table. Cardin urgently pressed his lips against hers, leaning his body against her. His firm thigh touched between her legs, and his breath grew rough.

As her body leaned back, she placed her hand down, but it slipped on a glass dish. As her body wobbled slightly, Cardin lifted her by the waist.

As their lips parted slightly, hot breaths scattered. In that moment, his lips met hers again. The soft pressure of his lips and the closeness of their bodies were heated.

‘After this moment, I won’t be able to be with Cardin like this anymore.’

Wrapping her arms around his neck, she deepened the kiss. A faint moan escaped between their lips, and she leaned into him, seeking comfort.

Suddenly, she felt the soft blanket beneath her. Cardin slowly pulled away. His gaze rose languidly. As their eyes met, his heated gaze softened.

He kissed her eyelids, cheeks, and lips in turn. The sound of the kisses echoed, and his hot breath lingered on her skin like an afterimage.

Cardin roughly pulled down the dress strap. In an instant, the chill mixed with rising heat enveloped her body. He gently bit the swaying mound of her chest with his tongue. As his tongue slid over her soft skin, her breath hitched and her waist lifted.

Cardin pressed his lower body against hers and kissed her chest, stomach, and sides in turn. Each time his lips passed, her breath came out hot and her body twitched.

Especially when he sucked hard on her side, moans escaped, and her waist jerked. Even though she grabbed his arm, Cardin didn’t stop.

“Ah, Cardin, uh, hm.”

A faint breath left her lips, and her toes curled. As she moved her legs to escape, Cardin held her in place with his strong arms, kissing her hips and thighs. His hot breath spread, and her breathing grew more intense.

He sucked between her thighs with his tongue and lips, touching her underwear. When she tensed and flinched, Cardin inhaled without removing her underwear.

In that moment of dizzying sensation, she clutched the blanket. Cardin glanced at her and tilted his head, pressing his tongue between her folds. Her already wet underwear clung to her skin as he pressed his tongue against it.

The sensation became more sensitive as the fabric and his tongue touched. The hot and stimulating feeling made her hips lift and her legs move, but Cardin held her firmly, preventing much movement.

His arms wrapped completely around her legs, and his tongue licked below, adding to her excitement. Her fluids flowed like water, and beneath her wet underwear, she could feel his tongue.

“Ah, Cardin, stop…”

She wanted to at least remove her underwear, but every time she pleaded, Cardin sucked harder below. As pleasure pooled below, her breath quickened.

Unlike her, who flinched at his every reaction, Cardin remained composed. It seemed like he was consumed by instinct, driven only by desire.

The way he looked at her was intense and deep, making her heart race. Cardin expertly sucked on her wet underwear before slightly pushing it aside.

As bare skin brushed between her folds, pleasure surged.

“Ah.”

Cardin seemed to have planned it, lifting her underwear with his hand. As it moved between her already aroused and sensitive folds, it stimulated her skin.

A faint moan escaped. Cardin’s hot breath was felt below. Her waist lifted involuntarily, and her mouth opened.

“Cardin, stop…”

She called out to him urgently, but Cardin didn’t respond and sucked more deeply on her red flesh. As his soft tongue touched the slippery flesh between her fluids, her hips jerked. Meanwhile, the bare skin caught on her underwear was bothersome.

Cardin only pressed his tongue firmly against that part but didn’t suck hard. Unknowingly, her hips moved in response to his lips.

Moans flowed out instinctively, like sobs.

“Ah, ha. Hm…”

Cardin was about to deeply suck on her cl*toris when his lips suddenly parted. In that moment of emptiness, her hips lifted slightly. It felt like pleasure was still pooled below.

Feeling a sudden sense of loss, she looked at Cardin, whose lips curled into a satisfied smile. Unconsciously, she spoke.

“Cardin.”

He raised an eyebrow as he looked at her, a faint smile on his lips, appearing relaxed. As she stared blankly, Cardin met her gaze and leaned down.

For a moment, his breath lingered on her lips.

“Why?”

His voice was low, as if weighed down by desire. Looking closely, his eyes seemed dark. The sense of ease she had seen seemed like a mirage.

Cardin pressed his lower body against hers, closing and opening his eyes. Whether he was also overcome with excitement, he exhaled hot breaths.

In the slowly meeting gaze, his desire was evident.

“Should I put it in?”

At his blunt words, her cheeks flushed. Cardin chuckled and kissed her cheek.

“Wasn’t calling me your way of asking for it?”

His voice flowed hotly into her ear. Strangely, his words made her breath catch. Sensing it, he moved his swollen member between her underwear.

A moan escaped.

“Ah, Cardin, uh.”

Cardin pressed more firmly below than before. Unknowingly, she grabbed his shoulders and panted. Her already aroused lower body instinctively craved pleasure. As she lifted her hips to rub against him, Cardin exhaled and looked at her.

“Brienne, I didn’t know you wanted me this much.”

A peculiar smile spread across his lips. Cardin slightly lifted his lower body, which had been pressed against hers. As his member, which had been pressing against her, moved away, her waist lifted unconsciously.

“Ah, Cardin, uh.”

Cardin bit her earlobe and spoke.

“Should I put it in?”

“Yes, hm… put it in.”

Her mind had long since lost reason. She desperately wanted the pleasure his body could give. Anyway, it would be the last time; she didn’t want to think deeply anymore.

Cardin slid his tongue into her ear once before slowly pressing his lower body against hers. His firm member entered between her half-opened folds.

His body entered so slowly that she unconsciously moved her hips.

“Ah!”

In that moment, she gasped in pleasure as Cardin exhaled sharply. He stared intently at her as he moved his thighs.

“Did you want me that much?”

The sound of flesh meeting flesh was intense. With the sudden rush of dizzying pleasure, moans flowed out like sobs.

“Ah, ha…”

Cardin didn’t take his eyes off her as he moved his hips. With each thrust, moans escaped, and her breath quickened. Each time he moved, fluids flowed around her entrance. His member, sliding in smoothly, vigorously stimulated and pressed her inner walls, gradually increasing in speed.

Cardin’s sweat trickled down his clavicle and between his defined muscles. As his firm lower body moved, her body shook continuously.

Fearing she couldn’t withstand more pleasure, she pleaded.

“Ah, Cardin, stop, uh.”

Despite the words escaping her lips, they were drowned in moans and didn’t resonate properly. Even as she shook her head and cried, Cardin bit her lips and pushed his member deeper.

“Hnng, hng.”

His rough breathing and the contact of his body were hot. Her mind was hazy, and the member that had been stimulating her inner walls pierced even more deeply. As Cardin’s lips parted, a harsh friction sound echoed.

He moved his hips quickly, as if driven by instinct. Finally, she cried out and moaned.

“Ah, stop, hm…”

Her head tilted back, and her waist trembled. It felt as if pleasure was climbing up her spine. She barely exhaled when Cardin lowered his head to her collarbone and cl*maxed.
