“Ah!”

His rough fingers plunged inside her and began to move, eliciting not moans but screams from Belita.

“Look at this. Your body loves playing with me so much that it’s twitching, but your heart was always somewhere else, wasn’t it?”

“Hng, Ri, Rian…… Wait. Listen to me for a moment!”

“Listen to what? Are you planning to confess to that bastard? Should I pass the message on for you?”

She couldn’t understand why he was so twisted. It was as if he had some deep inferiority complex, acting out violently with a wounded expression. It was bizarre. At the same time, her anger began to boil. Who was the one who made such an insincere confession in the first place? Why was he the one getting so angry?

“I said no!”

“If not…… are you saying you’ll love me?”

“Hah! What kind of love is something you can just do if asked or stop if told to?”

“Then?”

“Hah!”

Was he really asking because he didn’t know, or was he doing this on purpose? His tilted head and shameless question made her laugh in disbelief.

“Then what are you going to do?”

“Let go of me. Then I’ll answer.”

“……Fine. But I’ll have to keep my c*ck inside.”

“Ah! Rian!”

He grabbed her wrist and dragged her to the bed, roughly laying her down before lying beside her and pulling her close by the shoulder. Facing her directly, he lifted one of her legs and growled fiercely.

“You’d better give me the answer I want. Unless you want to see me go completely mad.”

“Hng……”

He was already acting like a madman, yet he spoke as if he were holding back. She didn’t even have the energy to respond to his growling. Still, unlike earlier, he entered her much more cautiously this time, and she was oddly grateful for it.

But perhaps because of the sideways position, the way his c*ck scraped against unfamiliar spots inside her made Belita tilt her head back and moan. Slowly, he pushed in until he was buried to the hilt. Satisfied, he casually propped his head on one arm and gestured with his chin as if to say, “Go on, talk.” His shamelessness was beyond words.

How am I supposed to say anything in this position?

It was clearly a serious situation, and they were having a serious conversation, but she couldn’t focus on the conversation at all. The way his c*ck kept pressing against a spot on her inner walls made all her nerves focus solely on that sensation.

“Stop clenching and talk. Are you enjoying this even now?”

“Ugh!”

With a teasing twist of his hips, his large c*ck spread her inner walls as it scraped against them. As he stirred her insides, Belita glared at him fiercely, her face twisted in frustration.

At this point, it was all or nothing. What’s the worst he could do—kill me?

“Why are you acting like this?”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you even remember what you said to me?”

“I said I wanted to love you.”

“No, that’s not it. What you actually said was, ‘I think it’d be fun with you. What do you think? Don’t you want to try it with me?’”

As she mimicked his tone, pouting her lips, Rian’s mouth twitched slightly. But being the master of composure, he maintained his poker face and shamelessly asked again.

“And what’s wrong with that?”

“Hng!”

Once again, his hips moved, making Belita moan and frown.

“Ah, sorry. I couldn’t help it since you keep clenching around my c*ck.”

No matter how hard she tried, the way his c*ck throbbed inside her made her unconsciously tighten around him. It seemed she was unintentionally stimulating him. Glaring at him, she sighed deeply.

“Can’t you pull out for a moment so we can talk?”

“No, I can’t.”

“Ugh……”

She didn’t want to share love—or even friendship—with such a selfish man. But saying that outright might push him over the edge, and she didn’t want to deal with the consequences. Belita could only glare at him to vent her frustration.

“Haa…… Anyway, you started this by speaking so casually!”

“I wasn’t joking. I was serious.”

“Who confesses like that if they’re serious?”

“Then how should I confess?”

“You could say something like, ‘I want to share love with you,’ or ‘I think I’ve fallen for you.’”

“Yeah, that. I feel the same way.”

“Huh…?”

Belita’s face went blank at Rian’s sudden response.

“I feel the same way. I want to share love with you. I think I could fall for you. And with you, I think it’d be okay. Do I have to spell it out this long for you to understand?”

……This can’t be real. This crazy man wants to love me? Why……?

She couldn’t believe it, yet Rian’s serious tone and unwavering gaze made her voice falter.

“……You said it’d be fun…… You sounded like you were joking.”

“Why would I joke about something that wouldn’t be fun or meaningful? Why would I joke about something like that?”

Somehow, his words felt convincing. Strangely, whenever she talked to him, it always felt like he was right.

“Ah!”

Suddenly, he pulled her into a tight embrace. His c*ck, which had been pressing against one spot, now reached deeper, hitting another sensitive spot inside her.

“Don’t take the word ‘fun’ so lightly. People like me, whose minds are split in two, exist because they didn’t understand how important ‘fun’ is in life. Do you know how important it is?”

“……”

“I’ve started to find life with you quite fun. That’s why I want to try this thing called love, even if it’s just a waste of emotions. With you, even that waste of emotions might be fun. So answer me now. Do you hate it?”

How was she supposed to respond to a man who wanted to treat love as a fun waste of emotions? What if, after starting, he found it wasn’t as fun as he thought? What would happen to her then?

She needed to answer, but the words wouldn’t come. However, the answer he wanted was already clear, and if she didn’t give it to him, there was no telling what would happen to her in this room tonight. His warning echoed in her mind, refusing to leave.

Belita racked her brain intensely. After all, it wasn’t as if she could show the emotion of love, and it was something that required no proof—just verbal expression would suffice. There seemed no need to make a big deal out of refusing. She just needed to say the words. Yes, it wasn’t difficult.

“Huff! Fine. Let’s do it. Not yet, but let’s try it, whatever.”

“Really?”

“Yes. Let’s do it. Let’s do it.”

“……Ha!”

It was fascinating to watch him bite his lower lip tightly, trying to suppress his rising smile. She hadn’t expected such a reaction, and it felt strange. Seeing Rian’s cheeks rise involuntarily, Belita found herself smiling too.

At Belita’s smile, Rian’s brow furrowed. Belita quickly composed her expression and rolled her eyes. Suddenly, something flashed in her mind. Somehow, this felt like an opportunity. A chance where he might agree to anything she asked.

“Rian.”

“Yes.”

“I have a request.”

“Tell me.”

“……Always treat me like you are now.”

“Huh?”

The man opened his eyes wide, as if he hadn’t understood what she meant.

“Don’t be scary or violent. If there’s a misunderstanding, let’s resolve it through conversation. Even when you’re angry, listen to what I have to say first.”

“This is my personality. It’s my natural temperament.”

“……”

At his firm response, Belita lowered her gaze. She had hoped, but it was as she expected. But then, mumbling awkwardly, he said something unbelievable.

“Still, I’ll try. Since it’s a request from a woman who says she loves me……”

Huh…? Why is his face red? And what…? A request from a woman who what…!?

With his face flushed bright red, rolling his eyes nervously, and arbitrarily deciding her feelings—this unfamiliar yet shameless man left Belita beyond shocked.

“Ahem! Belita.”

“……Yes.”

“Say you love me.”

“……!”

The man, who had quickly regained his shamelessness, smiled lazily as he commanded her. Belita narrowed her eyes at the man now demanding declarations of love and swallowed a laugh.

“You’ll need to get used to saying it often. So hurry up and say it.”

“Th-that’s not something that becomes natural just by saying it… Ah!”

Once again, he thrust his hips upward, threatening “Hurry up,” and Belita felt the urge to bite his mouth. Today, for some reason, this crazy Rian seemed like an overgrown child pretending to be tough. Still, she wasn’t quite ready to challenge him, so she could only stammer a response.

“I lo……”

“You only get one chance.”

Ugh…. Really!

Seeing no sign of him backing down, Belita had no choice but to squeeze her eyes shut and enunciate each syllable as if grinding them out. Her voice was completely devoid of sincerity, full of reluctance.

“I. Love. You.”

“You need to look at me when you say it. With a gentle voice.”

Haa…….
