Under the Oak Tree

Chapter 46 – Devoured Till Morning (2) | 19

Max gasped at the filling sensation, she didn’t think she could feel any more full than last night.

“This place makes me feel as if I’m melting...”

His breath tickled the back of her ear as Max buried her face in the sheets. He reached around her hips, twisting her body and then placing her with her back against the bed. His hands rested on her peaks, before he began moving in her once more.

“Ah...” she gasped with every thrust. The sensation was remarkably different than last night.

“Ugh, uh...”

Her arms went up around his neck, her nails digging into his back as she clung onto him with every whimper she released. One of his hands released her chests, moving down to rub against her sensitive nub on her nether regions.

With the current sensation she was feeling, coupled with his incessant rubbing, she could feel herself buildup quicker than before. She tipped her legs out to a stretch as he pushed deeper within her, twisting her once again until her face laid against the sheets.

He bent over her, his chest making contact with her back, trailing kisses from her shoulder blades to the back of her neck. She let out another gasp of pleasure when she felt the sharp sensation of him biting her neck.

Even though it was something she experienced numerous times last night, the feel of him pulsating inside her walls, growing bigger was unbearable. She began to convulse, her body trembling at the build up.

“It’s still morning, and you are already driving me crazy.” Riftan murmured.

He gave her one last peck at her sweaty back and slowly pulled himself out with a satisfied sigh. She let out a choked sound at the odd sensation.

“Wait for a second.”

Riftan yawned loudly, running a hand up his disheveled hair and suddenly jumped out of the bed. She watched him go across the room naked and pulled up his pants in one swift motion. He, who made her feel crazy so early in the morning, was only so carefree and calm. She could liken him to a nonchalant cat.

“Bring bath water and a change of clothes,” he ordered as he swung the door outside to tell the maid.

She was still reeling from the aftershocks of their love making. Riftan turned, and saw her still in bed. He stared down at her with his dark lidded eyes, then sat on the bed and kissed her shoulder blades and back, making a smacking sounds all over her skin.

“Ti–I‘m tired...” She mumbled in fear that he might come into her body again and the man slightly frowned. He picked up the towel on the bedside table and began wiping down her body that was wet with bodily fluids.

“Are you sick?” he asked her with concern laced in his tone.

“A bit, I’m a bit... so-sore.” She stuttered quietly resisting the shame she felt. She watched as his brows furrowed deeper.

“I must have gone too far.” He mumbled as he ruffled his hair.

Max only blushed in response.

Moments later, the maids came in with a bathtub containing hot water and a towel. He chased the maids away, saying he didn’t need to be attended to, before he picked her up in his arms carefully lowering her into the bathtub.

Max groaned gently as she felt her throbbing muscles loosen up at the warm waters. He took off his pants and inserted himself behind her. The water swished and sloshed around a little, some spilling to the floor.

He felt her tensed up as he pulled her to lean against him and sighed.

“Relax,” he chastises her, “I know when to stop.”

The man sat with his long legs wide open and gently embraced her tightly stiffened shoulders. Max was curled up and watched him soap his face and head. After washing his hair, he poured fresh water in the bathtub and washed her hair. She was embarrassed that she was being washed like a child, but she couldn’t rebel because she was exhausted.

“The fluffiness reminds me of red clouds.” He said, twirling her hair that reminisced a red jellyfish floating at sunset. Max opened her eyes wide. It was just amazing that he referred her dark, unruly, ugly hair to such a contrasting euphemism.

“It al-always gets ta-tangled up by it-its own... it’s di-disturbs me.” She suddenly said out of the blue, finding his praise far too disjointing.

“I find the curls really adorable.”

She widened her eyes. This man has an odd taste.

“Keep it down when you’re with me. I like the way it looks when it falls down your shoulders. Including the way it touches your skin.”

He hugged her waist from the back and rubbed his nose over her shoulder. Max dipped her body till the water was up to her chin and smoothed her hair. They thawed their bodies out in the water till their fingers and toes wrinkled up, they then got out of the bathtub and wiped themselves dry. Riftan sat her in front of the fireplace and dried her hair with a towel. She also wiped his hair in return.

“Stay in bed and rest for today. You won’t be able to go out because of the rain anyways.”

He said, as he wore the pants and put on a white tunic that was brought by the maid over his head. Max didn’t have the courage to dress in front of him, so she nodded her head while wrapped around in the towel.

The white tunic, embroidered with gold thread around the neck, suited him so perfectly. He looked like a painting. He put on his long boots over his starched stiff trousers and tied them tightly with a leather strap.

“A-are you go-going outside the ca-castle?”

As he wore his protective gear on top of the tunic and carried his sword and robe, Max looked curiously at him. Riftan, who was wearing a sword at his waist, gave a light smile as he looked back at her.

“Do you not want me to leave?”

Max only wetted her lips as she did not know what to say. He put his robe around his shoulders and continued to speak in an impertinent tone.

“I’ve been away for a long time, so I have lots to do. I’m going to inspect the grounds all day today. If anything happens, send a guard.”

“Bu-but it, it’s raining a lo-lot...”

She looked at the heavy rain knocking against the window. He shrugged as if it was no big deal.

“I once wandered through the mountains in the middle of a storm. Walking around the grounds is nothing to me.”

Then he clipped his hood around his shoulders, and strode towards the door. Before leaving, he turned back to her. “I’ll be back.”

“Al-alright...”

He nodded at her before he opened the door and went out.

Yeah, I was only joking about the an*l hehehe let’s not give ourselves one heartattack after another, kay? Now that snusnu is gone, will be seeing interesting sides of castle Calypse...
