Please Forget Me - Chapter 203

“He had an inferiority complex against me, so no matter what I said—even if I was right—he’d say I was wrong.”

The man blamed the commander in a cold tone he rarely used. It reminded me of the tone and harshness he once used when condemning a soldier from the Hildebrandt family who dragged his own wife into death.

“Is that person the same one?”

“Who are you talking about?”

“The soldier who wanted to die gloriously and dragged his wife into the death zone.”

“Oh…”

“The same person…”

“No.”

“Not the same? Then what about the commander? Did he die too?”

“Yes, during the air raid.”

“Oh… so he paid for his sins.”

“That’s right. And I’m still being tested by someone called you.”

He pulled me closer, wrapping not only his arms but his legs around me as well. My cheek and chest were pressed flat against his broad chest, making it hard to breathe.

From outside, I probably looked like I’d been swallowed up by thick tree roots.

“When we get to our own paradise, let’s never leave. Let’s live safely and happily forever.”

His voice, promising me a future instead of dwelling on the past, was warm and sweet, unlike anyone else’s.

“No matter what you look like… even if you lose your memory or your youth… my dream is to grow old with you, so I’ll stay by your side till the end.”

Receiving such perfect and oddly pure affection made me feel almost unworthy.

The fact that I’d been injured, endured countless hardships afterward—it wasn’t his fault at all. I was alive because of him.

‘And this man… got caught up trying to save me and is suffering through hardships even though it wasn’t his to blame.’

Still, he apologized to me as if it were his fault, taking on my sins.

“Why did I volunteer for such a stupid operation?”

“You believed it was your duty.”

“And you believed protecting me was your duty…”

He nodded without hesitation, looking so happy that I understood him, even though it pained me.

‘If it were me, I’d hate myself for dragging us into this hell. I used to resent this man, thinking it wasn’t my fault.’

But he knew it was my fault and yet kissed my hand without a hint of resentment, like a knight blindly loyal to his lord.

“Dana, I will protect you till the very end.”

When I looked up, the arms binding me loosened slightly. I saw him: the foolish man who swore never to go to the death zone again after meeting me, but still followed me back into it. The foolish man I couldn’t help but love.

“Huff…”

Before he could say anything, I pressed my lips to his. As he exhaled deeply, he swallowed my lips. My dry lips instantly became moist and sticky.

“Haa…”

“Ugh…”

It had been so long that we were clumsy at first, yet fierce as if trying to devour each other. Even though it was only a kiss, the man’s chest rose heavily, and his breathing grew rapidly. His body stiffened between my legs in an instant.

With just a few strokes of my hand, his e******n was so tense it felt like it would tear through his pants. Rolling the tip inside his pants with my palm, I knew it wasn’t the right time, and expected him to refuse—he’s always been more rational than me.

“Ah!”

But instead of pushing me away, he rolled us over, trapping me beneath him. The moment I collapsed onto him, his rigid member pressed sharply against the bulge hidden beneath my bloomers.

“Ah!”

A sharp wave of pleasure surged, and I tilted my head back, moaning from excitement. Teasingly, I struck him once before rubbing my c******s fiercely against where his tip protruded.

“Ugh!”

He moaned, throwing his head back. The muscles in his taut neck twitched noticeably.

“Haa… Dana…”

His hot voice calling me showed he wasn’t refusing at all.

Instead, he gave himself over, letting me do as I wished, receiving everything I offered with gratitude.

Now that nothing held me back, I pulled down the front of his pants and freed his stiff shaft. I stroked up and down the heated flesh, my neck burning with desire.

Though too heavy for one hand to grasp, I could only use one hand because the other had to sweep my hair aside and hold it firmly.

Just as I was about to wet him, he lowered his hand towards his wet tip…
