Chapter 154 - Tell me everything (1/2)

Kazuya tells her. After seeing the necklace, he suddenly felt guilty. How much does Lyn remember? He wanted to ask that. But for now, he needs to tell her about Lethia. For the next few minutes, Lyn patiently listened to him; she only interrupted once in a while to ask questions.

Finally, after a long time, Lyn took a deep breath, ”I think I get it, I mean my sister is clearly after my life. She probably thinks she isn't getting anywhere with her current methods, so she wants to get rid of the source.”

”I'm sorry.”

Lyn shook her head, ”I do understand Kazuya, but even then it makes me lonely,” it's then Kazuya sees the tears in the girl's eyes. Ah...

Kazuya brushes his fingers against Lyn's eyes to wipe the tear away, ”And? And? What else is there?'

He wanted to know everything about her. All the things that made her uneasy, everything that makes her smile.

”I know we can't often meet because of my circ.u.mstances and you being the ambassador... But when you finish your work, I want the first one you go see first to be me.”

”Yeah. I'd also like that.”

”And I think you should put more effort into your other jobs.”

”Yes.”

”And I like the way you embrace me anywhere and call my name.”

”Thanks,” Kazuya replied awkwardly. But isn't she getting a bit off-topic here? Still, since she is on this topic, he may as well ask, ”You only like my embraces?”

”No, I like your kisses, and when you touch me.”

”Lyn.”

”I understand that you have to work with my sister because of your job. But I don't like it. I want you only to touch and hold me. I want to be the only one you think about.”

At that comment, Kazuya pulled Lyn closer to him and undoes the collar on his top, ”Then, mark me as yours. So that nobody else will think so otherwise to touch me.”

Lyn blushed, ”Gosh, I thought you were just going to ask me for a kiss or make me say I love you or something.”

”I don't have to make you say I love you.”

”Your way too confident,” Lyn trailed off and sighed, ”You know that would have sounded cool and all. If you didn't meet my sister again.”

Kazuya cursed in his head; perhaps he should have accepted Rhys offer about concealing it after all. To his surprise though Lyn chuckled, ”But that's fine,” she sensually trails her lips across his skin, ”Because, I'll just have to do a better job than her.”

.....

Once Lyn got changed, they headed down. From the looks of it, everyone's still fighting. The song of darkness must have caused their infiltration to lessen. However, he spots the lilac-colored cross in the air, ”The others are making a move. If so, then we can easily proceed on to the next stage. Kazuya, the state of the battlefield. Before you left, how was it?”

”Everyone was in position and proceeding well. But that was five hours, or so ago, by now they must be tired. Even the strongest of people break down after fighting for half a day,” Kazuya explained.

” . . And that song of darkness is still going on strong. I'd probably be able to counter it though, so I should meet with the others as quickly as possible.”

”Huh, right?”

Even though they were getting in the mood earlier, she's quick to change gears as usual. Although he supposed it couldn't be helped, he was the one who taught her to separate her private life and work life. Because if you don't, then you'll end up like him. Back then as much as possible, he ensured that she would turn out into a good inspector. He taught her, but he made sure he didn't go overboard because he didn't want her to purge into darkness.

If Kazuya knew from the start that her gaze had already longed been tainted; then he would not have approached her at all. However, even if he didn't - their paths would have crossed, eventually. Their relationship started when he found on that day, and coincidentally enough, they became partners.

Kazuya intended to maintain a distance to a certain degree, but that's not what ended up happening.
