When You Turned Your Back On Me, We Became Strangers [EN]: Chapter 105

Turn Around and You’re a Stranger (104) (105/111)

Side Story 4

From the moment Reilly decided to be with Caber, they were constantly eager to explore their connection whenever they met.

Perhaps because he had endured so much hardship, Caber held Reilly tightly, unwilling to let her go.

Even today, they hadn’t intended for things to escalate this far.

“Hngh, just a moment… Caber!”

Reilly pushed away Caber’s hand as it reached for her.

She almost weakened at the sight of his slightly unfocused eyes looking up at her.

“Not today!”

“…To get me all heated up like this and then push me away.”

His slumped shoulders revealed his disappointment. Reilly, lying face down on the bed, pulled down her raised skirt.

“The wedding is tomorrow, and if we do this, I won’t be able to sleep at all!”

“Don’t worry. No one will say anything.”

“No, that’s not it… !”

In an instant, her body was turned over again.

Reilly looked at Caber, who was now looming above her. She was momentarily captivated by the sight of his exposed upper body as he licked his lips, but then his hand reached for her swelling chest.

“Ah… !”

Caber looked at Reilly, who was blushing beneath him, and kissed her.

Even seeing her every night wasn’t enough. Holding her in his arms and listening to her voice all night only intensified his desire for her.

“Reilly, Reilly.”

“Hngh.”

She couldn’t even answer, because her mouth was soon covered by his.

His warm, soft lips devoured hers as if to swallow her whole.

Even with his urgent advances, she found it impossible to resist him.

‘Who could stop him when he comes at me so sexily like this?’

Reilly’s hands, which had been holding onto his firm forearms, now cupped his face. She slowly stroked his cheeks and gave him light kisses.

Smack-

Short but sweet kisses followed. On Caber’s cheeks, nose, forehead, and finally, his lips.

“Calm down, you pervert.”

“…Anyone who saw you right now would lose their mind. No, no one should see you.”

Caber hugged Reilly tightly. Fortunately, he seemed to have regained his composure.

“Let’s just hold hands and sleep tonight.”

“…How cruel.”

He nestled into Reilly’s arms with a tearful expression.

His hand slowly crept inside her clothes but was soon stopped by Reilly’s hand.

“Are you going to be like this?”

“Don’t you think you’re being too harsh?”

Her fair skin was revealed between her disheveled clothes. When had she ever allowed him to touch her soft skin, only to stop him now because she wouldn’t be able to sleep before the wedding? It felt like torture.

She must be a devil. Yet, he couldn’t escape her allure, which was truly cruel.

“Then what about here?”

“That’s also… difficult.”

His fingers slid down her exposed neckline.

Before long, his hand reached her perky chest. The light slip made the stimulation all the more intense.

“Really not allowed?”

Caber whispered lowly in Reilly’s ear.

She felt a strange sensation against her pressed body. Before Reilly’s gaze could fall downwards, Caber covered her eyes.

“I’ll let you sleep. Really.”

“Ah… !”

In the end, Reilly moaned at Caber’s touch.

* * *

Knock knock knock.

“Your Majesty, did you cough?”

Huh! I knew it.

Reilly was startled by the voice from outside and quickly pulled up the blanket.

He said he’d let me sleep! But he didn’t let me go until sunrise.

He, who had fallen asleep with the most comfortable expression, pulled Reilly into his arms.

“It’s not time yet.”

“The maid is here. Wake up.”

“…Has it already gotten that late?”

He got out of bed as if nothing had happened and smiled brightly at Reilly.

He kissed her tenderly and showered her with affection.

“I wish no one would disturb us.”

“You do know that today is the wedding, right? It’ll be a problem if we’re late. Everyone’s waiting.”

“…Ah, so I’ll be able to hear your nagging every day now.”

Caber was acting out of his mind and acting cute with Reilly. At this rate, they might be late. Eventually, Reilly approached the window.

“Do you really have to go back to your room?”

“Or are you going to brag that we spent a hot night together before the wedding?”

“If anyone speaks ill of you, I won’t stand for it.”

“See you later.”

Reilly shook her head.

Caber must only have eyes for her. She had planned to sleep with Leta the night before, but he wouldn’t let her go, so she couldn’t.

“Ah, Leta must already be here.”

“That’s right. Let’s talk about Leta later.”

“I don’t think we need to have that conversation… .”

Caber was startled and avoided her gaze. He must have noticed something.

Reilly quickly hid before the maid came in.

The door opened as soon as she disappeared.

“Really, you have no tact.”

“Are you talking about me?”

Haban scratched his neck and looked at Caber. Seeing him standing there with only his lower body covered, the maid’s instincts were right.

“Please, have some dignity.”

“What does pride matter in love? There’s no need to maintain dignity in front of her.”

It truly was a love of the century.

Haban shook his head at Caber’s confident demeanor. He was an impossible man.

If his resignation had been accepted a long time ago, he wouldn’t have to witness this.

“Ah, I think Reilly found out.”

“…That can’t be.”

“It’s true. She requested a meeting with me.”

“…Will I survive?”

“Well, you know. She’s quite fierce, more than she looks.”

Haban felt goosebumps all over his body.

If it was about Leta, Reilly would come running with fire in her eyes. Now that she’s become his superior’s wife, how much worse would it be?

“I’m taking a vacation.”

“That’s difficult. You have to handle the state affairs while I’m gone.”

“Your Majesty!”

Haban cried out and pulled at the cloth.

As a result, the part that was barely covering his important area was revealed.

Fortunately, the door was closed; otherwise, Caber’s magnificence would have been revealed to the whole world.

“… .”

“…What is this?”

Haban’s pupils shook, unable to find their focus. He silently gave a thumbs up and subtly averted his gaze.

“It wasn’t intentional, but you are indeed worthy of being the king of a nation.”

It was a compliment, but it was embarrassing.

Caber looked at his exposed lower half and laughed hollowly.

“You can forget about taking a vacation for the time being.”

“That’s too much!”

“What’s too much is your hand. Hey, where are you looking again!”

Haban quickly turned his head and covered his eyes.

What a healthy morning. He felt like his luck for the day would be bad because he had seen something he didn’t want to see.

“Why? Is it too great compared to what you have?”

Caber grinned and walked towards Haban.

Haban’s eyes widened in horror, and he picked up the cloth and handed it to Caber.

“Ah! I was wrong, please stop!”

“You’ll lose confidence if you hate it that much.”

Haban’s face turned pale, and he quickly approached the door.

“I, I’ll tell them to prepare, so I’ll be leaving now.”

“Why don’t you watch more?”

“…I will definitely write my resignation letter someday.”

“Leta would be very happy.”

Haban’s face twisted at Caber’s words.

She looked at him every day with sparkling eyes and said that she thought he looked so cool when he was working.

In the end, he would unfortunately never be able to submit his resignation letter.
