The Cat Who Weeps in the Dark - Chapter 47

‘At this rate, I feel like we’ll be stuck in this kind of relationship forever.’

Of course, she didn’t want their relationship to progress. But the problem was that he showed no signs of ever getting tired of her.

She had thought it would be a one-night stand, a week at most. Helion had brought countless women into his bedroom, and he never continued those relationships a second time.

But she was the exception. Katie believed the reason lay in the insertion. S****l intercourse, ultimately, was about insertion. Even if it was a rigid thought, like something a beast-person might think, she couldn’t help it. Otherwise, what reason would he have not to grow tired of her?

It was like food. For instance, imagine there’s delicious-looking chicken. You want to take a big bite, chew heartily, and swallow, but all she could eat was the skin. Or perhaps she could chew it a couple of times but then had to spit it out without swallowing. Could such an ambiguous act truly be defined as “eating”? The answer was ‘no.’

Katie thought Helion was exactly in that state right now. Since he hadn’t “eaten,” there was no way he could be tired. Perhaps he hadn’t been able to properly “eat,” which only made him more stubborn and persistent.

“You seem even more sluggish today. Are you slowing down, becoming like me?”

Helion, leaning back against the headboard, crooked a finger at her. Katie approached the bed and climbed on top of him.

Helion particularly liked this position. He said it was easy to admire her face from here. She thought every time that he was a nasty man. Helion got off on seeing her humiliated expression.

“May I ask you something?”

“Well. If I allow the question, what do I get out of you?”

“You really like making deals, don’t you? I have nothing to offer, so just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

“Stubborn.”

Helion wrapped Katie’s hair around his finger. Helion, who had been twirling the ends of her short hair, nodded as if to say, ‘Go ahead.’ He then neatly tucked the hair he’d been playing with behind her ear. Katie followed his hand, letting her gaze drop downwards.

“Why don’t you move on to the next step?”

Helion’s c**k was stiffly e***t again today. Though he had never taken it out, its state was evident even through his pants, pressing against her thigh.

What touched her beneath her b******s was large, hot, and hard. At first, she couldn’t believe this enormous thing was a p***s and thought he had hidden something in his pocket.

But when a highly aroused Helion rubbed it against her thigh, she could no longer deny it. This was a p***s. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to get so burning hot that it was palpable even through fabric.

His whole body was so cold she’d wondered if he was actually a reptile and not human, but seeing that part of him hot suggested this man was indeed human after all.

The problem was that even when he was this aroused, he never, ever took it out. As if someone had put a chastity belt on him.

“I didn’t realize you were so impatient, lass. So, fingers aren’t satisfying you anymore, is that it?”

“…Never mind. I shouldn’t have said anything.”

“Do you always have to be so stiff? You could just answer ‘yes’ and hear my reply.”

“And Your Highness could just answer without being sarcastic, couldn’t you?”

“Wrap your legs around me, Katie.”

Helion chose to give an order instead of the answer she wanted. Katie wrapped her legs around his waist without much resistance. Resisting was futile; she’d end up doing what he wanted anyway. Obeying his commands was the best way to end this act as quickly as possible and return to her role as a knight.

Helion expertly caressed her c******s. The little pearl, handled by the man’s hand every night, swelled quickly with even the slightest touch.

“Now, even without much fondling, your juices leak out on their own. Soon, I’ll be able to just plunge in without foreplay.”

Katie gnawed her lip, offering no reply. The man’s gaze swept over her tiny, peeking teeth, then settled on her bruised lips. He licked his own lips, eyeing her blood-engorged mouth. His hand naturally moved lower. It was the kind of place that made it obvious what Helion was imagining when he looked at her lips.

“Uung.”

Thick fingers parted the tightly joined folds. Despite the many nights they’d spent, the sensation of something entering her body never quite became familiar. Katie stiffened her back, letting out a soft moan.

Her tightly sealed lips parted, releasing the flesh she had held captive with her teeth. Helion couldn’t tear his gaze away from those glistening, salvia-slicked lips.

“I want you to become utterly defenseless on your own.”

What was he talking about? For a moment, Katie pondered, then realized that this was his answer to her earlier question.

“I’m looking forward to the day you beg and spread your legs, pleading for me to ram into you.”

“That will never happen.”

Katie’s face flushed crimson at his blunt words. Helion savored her reaction, slowly stirring the hand embedded within her.

“But even in this state, it’s not bad. There’s a thrill in peeling you back, layer by layer. I’m genuinely looking forward to seeing your complete, naked self, revealed fully to me.”
