The Sand Bride - Side Story 2.12

It was fine up until she relaxed her engorged b*****s with the warm cloth, but far from the milk coming out, it hurt so much whenever she touched them that she couldn’t even knead them properly. Perhaps due to her clumsy strength, the tension wasn’t easing.

It was at that moment, as Esther was flushed with embarrassment at the fact that she was touching her own b*****s in the middle of the night and feeling restless because the massage wasn’t working at all. A shadow darker than the night approached Esther from behind.

“I knew you’d be like this.”

Startled, Esther whipped around to find Karzhen standing behind her, wearing only thin indoor clothes and clicking his tongue. How long had he been there? Had he seen everything? Just as Esther, face bright red with shame, tried to hurriedly get up from her seat.

Karzhen forced Esther back down and sat on the bed himself, embracing her from behind. However, his large hands were not on her belly or waist, but over her swollen b*****s, which were warm and wet from the hot water. When Esther tried to push him away, Karzhen murmured softly.

“Stay still. You can’t even do it yourself, and yet you’re back here suffering in silence.”

He knows everything. Esther realized the older servant had told Karzhen everything she had consulted her about, and she trembled with a small sense of betrayal. But before she could dwell on that feeling for long, Karzhen’s hand moved, and she jumped.

“D-Don’t! I’m fine!”

“Fine?”

“Yes, yes…! Fi—Agh……!”

She tried to nod hurriedly to say she was fine, but a scream escaped her as Karzhen’s hand kneaded her b****t. Tears pooled in her eyes automatically. Karzhen snorted as if to say ‘I told you so’ and adjusted his posture, gripping both of Esther’s b*****s in his hands. But Esther didn’t give up and shouted.

“Y-You are going to hurt me like before!”

“Like before?”

Karzhen asked back, his face asking what on earth she was talking about. Esther pressed her stinging eyes and nodded.

“Ouch!”

It had happened just a few days ago. Once her postpartum recovery period was over, Karzhen had s*x with Esther. Esther, who had been closing her eyes and flinching at his foreplay, had let out a sharp scream when Karzhen bit her n****e with his front teeth.

Already chapped and raw from the baby nursing, her n****e being bitten hurt so much it brought tears to her eyes. No matter how gentle a baby is, one cannot prevent the stimulation, but having Karzhen—who had teeth—bite and suck on them made it too painful to feel any pleasure.

Esther had immediately reached out to push Karzhen’s shoulder and said:

“Why do you keep biting me!”

“I did what?”

Despite her sharp tone, Karzhen only asked back innocently.

“It hurts. I told you not to bite!”

Esther huffed in anger, which was rare for her. It wasn’t just talk; it really did hurt. Karzhen had always been the type to bite a lot, but now, being bitten near her b*****s was unbearably painful.

Naturally, Karzhen wasn’t discouraged by Esther’s anger; instead, he just laughed as if he loved this unusual reaction. Then, like a man playing innocent, he shrugged his shoulders.

“Where exactly have I been biting you?”

“Everywhere!”

Esther screamed sharply, her body trembling. It was a tremor of rage, not fear.

She felt he was going too far. Her memories flooded back—not just the nape of her neck, but her forearms and even her cheeks had been bitten. She couldn’t stand it.

Above all, the thin, light clothes of Gharyam clearly revealed her neck, which was covered in red marks and distinct teeth imprints. On hot days, Esther couldn’t even lift her head in embarrassment, even when she buttoned her outer coat up to her chin.

Once she exploded, her resentment grew, paralyzing her reason. Carried away, she pointed to various parts of her body as if to show him and vented her anger.

“Look! Here, and here too, and……”

And here, and here too……! Forgetting her shame of being naked, Esther pointed out each bitten spot.

Her shrill voice was quite sharp and fierce, but Karzhen watched with a smile, like an excited child, as Esther pointed her finger at the places on her body where he had bitten her. Then, he lunged at her as he was, beginning to lick and suck at her ear and the nape of her neck.

“Mmm~~!”

As Karzhen stimulated only her sensitive areas, Esther panted and shrugged her shoulders. Years later, Karzhen knew exactly where to rub to make Esther’s body twist and which parts to suck to make her cry out. It was just as Esther was letting out groans while curling her toes at his skillful foreplay.

“Agh!”

“Ugh……!”

However, when Karzhen bit her n****e with his front teeth, Esther screamed and swung her arm wildly, pleasure be damned. Then, with a thud, Karzhen fell back, covering his face with his hands. He was clutching his eye area.

Only a moment later did Esther realize she had struck Karzhen’s eye area with her elbow.

No matter if the one hit was Karzhen and the one swinging was Esther, he couldn’t regain his senses for a moment after being hit unexpectedly in a vital spot like the eye. The numbing pain spread slowly from his eye to his entire face and then concentrated back on the struck area, leaving his soul dazed.

When Karzhen finally raised his head, his face was so savagely distorted that he looked ready to beat someone to death. The sight terrified Esther. And seeing her reaction, Karzhen felt something he had never felt before in his life—an overwhelming sense of injustice.

“Damn it.”
