Chapter 450 - Ten Centimeters Part 9 (2/2)

For the next few days, Lyn stays with Rhys. At first, she found it difficult to adjust to living with him. But Lyn realized it was better than her staying alone. With the current state of her legs, she won't be able to walk much. 'Pupillam still hasn't returned.' So she has nobody who can support her properly.

The only problem is .. her gaze fell on the man who hovered on top of her. His lips descended onto hers. ”Hey, we're not done. Open your mouth, Lyn.”

She didn't obey him, so Rhys pried her mouth open with his, and shot his tongue inside. 'Rhys gives such a.d.u.l.t-like kisses. Kazuya has never kissed her like this.' Then again, Kazuya was the gentleman type. No, Kazuya didn't know what he was doing.

”Lyn, Lyn,” Rhys mumbled her name repeatedly.

Can people engage in intimate actions with no feelings? In the past, Lyn asked herself a lot. She saw many 'couples.' around her who had no feelings for each other.

Her entire body felt so hot. 'This person what are his intentions by doing this?' Does he have feelings for her? But why is this the only thing on his mind? Lyn didn't know what to expect by staying with Rhys. However, she didn't expect him to like intimacy so much. While he often teased her before. Lyn didn't know he was like this. He showed signs, yes, but Lyn couldn't be positive.

”You don't seem to be into this today. Is something wrong?” Rhys asked.

”...no, I'm just tired.”

Rhys nodded. ”Why don't you sleep?”

”Rhys.” Lyn extended her hand out, and he grabbed hold of it. ”Thank you...”

She doesn't know why she keeps thanking him randomly like this.

”Rhys, there's something I would like to know.. Will Kazuya be able to come back?”

At that comment, Rhys frowned and pushed her back down. ”We don't have to talk about Kazuya, do we?”

”You don't have to get jealous,” Lyn mumbled. ”Right now, I have no choice but to belong to you.”

She wonders if her sister is buying this act at all, though. Her sister's intelligence can match her eldest brother. Rhys didn't reply to her and brought his lips to her legs.

Lyn ran her hands through his hair. 'It did feel nice.' She didn't understand these things very well.

Lyn does not have much experience kissing. Other than Kazuya, she has never kissed someone before. Kazuya and her seldom kissed too. He preferred hugging and holding her hand. So dealing with Rhys was difficult. He wasn't just kissing her, but pressing their bodies against one another.

He felt heavy, and Lyn was uncomfortable. How can they kiss properly? Unfortunately, Rhys proved that when he seemed to play with her tongue. The way he explored her mouth drove her crazy. Her entire body felt hot; she was sweating uncontrollably. She doesn't understand why she was burning up due to a single kiss.

He whispered soothing words in her ear. ”Don't worry, Lyn. It's only kissing.”

Only kissing? Why is it like this? It's very strange. But, the reason why she can't push him away is... This makes her feel wanted; it pushes back all her negative thoughts. Just for once in her life, she wants to stop feeling so empty. If Rhys can do that, then she could accept him.

But this feeling is only temporary; it disappears the moment he stops. Even if it's for a moment only, she wants to feel something. Something other than emptiness.

Her thoughts broke off when he intertwined their hands together. Oh...

Oh no, she feels like crying. Lyn wanted nothing more than to hide her face right now. But it was difficult since Rhys was kissing her.

Rhys, however, noticed and licked her tears away. ”Salty.”

”Rhys.”

She wants to tell him what she feels. Would he understand?

”What's wrong?” Rhys asked.

Lyn wanted to tell him, but she immediately stopped herself. ”Mmm, nothing. It's a bit cold today.” Lyn commented.

”Should I close the window?”

Lyn shook her head, ”I need some fresh air.”

”Alright,” Rhys gaze fell on her again. ”Can I continue?” he said somewhat seductively. However, when she looked at his eyes, she saw something—the same loneliness and longing.
