Chapter 667
“Veer, weren’t you already eager just moments ago?”
Ig suddenly recalled seeing the blush on the young girl’s face earlier. It didn’t seem like just simple shyness. In her golden eyes, there was a mix of longing, anticipation, and disappointment.
Clearly, she was a princess of the goddess, yet she made such an awkward expression… This girl really has the nature of a child.
Thinking this, he relaxed and a gentle smile appeared on his face. He reached out to gently stroke her beautiful hair, “Young Lady, what is it that you desire?”
Ig asked knowingly.
“Mm, you idiot, you already know…”
The girl bit her tender lips with her teeth, her golden eyes brimming with bashfulness, “Earlier, you teased this young lady so unabashedly, shouldn’t you compensate me?”
Teasing? He didn’t recall teasing her… Could it be that the young lady had been fantasizing about something indecent, and then couldn’t help but get aroused?
Ig thought with some amusement. However, seeing the girl’s rosy cheeks and her shy, expectant golden eyes hidden behind her lashes, he came up with an interesting idea.
A somewhat mischievous smile appeared on the black-haired young man’s face. He wrapped his arm around the girl’s slender waist, and with his other hand, he lightly touched the hem of her skirt, sliding it underneath.
“Mm!” Verafia’s big eyes widened in panic, and she instinctively raised her slender legs to clamp down.
Even through the brief contact, the warmth and dampness beneath the girl’s skirt, akin to the moist silk fabric, intensified the amusement in Ig’s eyes.
Verafia’s long, snowy legs trembled slightly, her jade-like cheeks flushed with shyness as she let out a soft moan, lowering her little face, not daring to look at him.
However, although he was being naughty, Ig was not the type to mock his young lady. His hand moved past the girl’s flat valley, unhindered, and his palm touched the girl’s pert bottom.
Even through the thin, smooth stockings and the soft fabric covering her secret place, he could feel the elasticity and smoothness of her bottom, along with the tension she held due to nervousness.
Thinking about it, after being by the young lady’s side for so long… this seemed to be the first time he had touched such a private area?
Ig pondered, then, as the girl softly moaned, he applied a bit more pressure, not lifting her like a princess as usual, but rather, gently cradling her in his arms.
Seemingly helpless, the young girl could only press tightly against Ig’s chest, her fair fingers gripping him firmly. Moonlight poured over the two, seemingly merging them into one, their light and delicate heartbeats synchronizing with the pulse of the blood in their veins.
Ig’s gaze, filled with a lingering smile, fell upon her shy, averted eyes, and he spoke, “Young Lady, do you want it?”
“Um, just, just a bit…”
The girl’s reddened face seemed to make her little head dizzy, she mumbled somewhat confusedly; but as if thinking of something, she suddenly jolted and quickly shook her head.
“No, no, it will hurt… and it’s not the time yet, it’s still too early, um…”
Upon seeing the panic and fear on the girl’s face, a smile that he couldn’t hide formed on Ig’s lips.
Indeed, this young lady is scared again… Always thinking about such naughty things in her little head, yet so eager, she still teases me.
In Verafia’s eyes, the boy’s passionate gaze fell again on her snowy cheeks, burning her with shyness, “Then, Young Lady, what do you want…”
Her jade-like fingers tightly gripped, her little head resting on his chest. Verafia avoided his gaze and whispered faintly, breathlessly, “Just, just a kiss, just a kiss will do.”
After speaking, she quickly closed her eyes, her pure, jade-like face gently tilting up, seemingly awaiting his request.
Gazing at the trembling, delicate eyelashes of the girl in his arms, a soft smile appeared on Ig’s face. He also closed his eyes, leaned down, and kissed her jade-like forehead.
The delicate moonlight scattered, seemingly freezing this quiet scene into eternity.
Her heart trembled within the heat of the kiss, and Verafia quietly opened her eyes.
The boy’s face was bathed in faint moonlight, reflecting in her eyes. Even though he didn’t show much expression, she could fully feel his depth and concentration.
Ig’s arms held her steadily, giving her a sense of safety. Even her legs could sway lightly, not needing to cling to him like an octopus.
Yet, Verafia felt an urge to press her entire body closer to the boy’s chest.
She gently lowered her gaze, her slender jade fingers gripping the boy’s collar, and at that moment, it was as if everything was still. In her heart, she suddenly felt a hint of loss again… It was a feeling of emptiness and dissatisfaction.
Really… even though you refused, you still react like this. Do you want to kiss him passionately? Or do you want a more thorough, more direct interaction?
She knew that the recent feeling wasn’t merely a physical yearning of her delicate body; rather, as a young girl, both her body and heart wanted more dependence; she wanted to obtain a step further in love from him whom she adored…
However…
Her eyelashes blinked, covering the dim golden eyes. She held back the sadness, her little hands tightly hugging his waist, an impeccable smile showing on her face.
Even though it was only a kiss on the forehead, to Ig, it was an invaluable treasure. After a prolonged moment, he carefully let go.
Looking at the girl’s softly raised jade cheeks, under the thin moonlight, they were as fine and flawless as a piece of art, yet faintly marked with his traces.
Veer, just now, suddenly, as Veer’s boyfriend… I wanted to get closer to Veer. Veer, you don’t mind, do you?
Ig gently placed the girl on the ground. Just now, his sudden move towards the young girl had not been prearranged. Naturally, it was time to apologize.
“Boyfriend…?”
Verafia muttered in a low voice. Although her small face showed a tangled expression, at least one thing was clear for Ig to see. She lifted her face somewhat poutily and then gazed at him resentfully, grumbling about why he didn’t go further.
The young man gently stroked her elegant hair.
“Ig.”
As if hesitating for a long time, Verafia lifted her small face, bit her tender lips, her bright big eyes staring, “Just now, did I disappoint you again? Even though, I was the one who teased you… but then suddenly resisted.”
Ig was stunned for a moment before he figured out the girl’s meaning, and then his face showed a look of barely suppressed laughter.
This girl, she really considered me in that aspect?
However, this time though, although still somewhat enticed by the girl’s flirting, he was prepared and thus able to restrain himself, not nearly as clumsy as last time in front of her.
Don’t look at this young lady as a noble princess, in moments of affection, she’s completely like a seductive little fairy.
That he could barely restrain himself, it’s thanks to being by the girl’s side for many days, somewhat accustomed to her beauty.
Naturally, answering the girl, he couldn’t say that.
“How could that be. Since Veer is not ready yet, of course, I cannot force it.”
With tenderness, he ruffled her small head, Ig looked at her raised, shimmering gaze, “Moreover, Veer likes me, and is willing, as a lover, to let me get close, I am already very satisfied.”
“As long as Veer is ready, after our wedding, Veer, you won’t need to refuse anymore.” Ig said half-jokingly.
“Wedding, becoming, Ig’s wife…”
Verafia muttered softly, her gaze, somewhat entranced.
To be able to, in a grand cathedral, wear a beautiful wedding dress, gown, and in the blessings of everyone, gently place her hand in his…
This, for all girls, must be something sweet, and dreamlike.
But…
Her slender jade fingers gently clutched, her delicate jade face blossoming with a bright smile, Verafia gazed at the young man, nodding seriously: “Yes.”
Ig, on the other hand, didn’t expect the girl to seemingly have given it serious thought.
Originally, he was just half-joking, thinking that if the girl couldn’t overcome the fear in her heart yet was willing to marry him, he couldn’t possibly refuse.
After all, compared to physical affection… Ig wanted to stay by her side forever.
Of course, since the girl agreed again, he couldn’t possibly refuse, right?
“Ha, if Veer is willing, then of course, it’s very good…”
Ig gently kissed her temple, then said, “But, it’s already very late, young lady, let me take you back first.”
…
On the way back to the room, perhaps, Ig suddenly felt a bit playful, not letting her walk alone on the ground, but carrying her in a princess hold, which along the way, drew quite a few astonished looks from the maids, and coincidentally, Ophi who happened to come out.
Normally, Verafia would struggle hard out of embarrassment, even if she intended to only half-resist, she would at least show some gesture.
However, perhaps, too mentally exhausted, she didn’t move much, her slender fingers clutching his collar, like a little wife, her delicate small face flushed, still nestling lightly against his chest.
From the castle’s top floor to the room arranged for them by Shiel, was about a ten-minute journey, for which Verafia was very clingy, wishing it could last longer.
She secretly raised her tearful golden eyes, the corner of the young man’s mouth lifted a faint smile. Her milky jade fingers gave a slight squeeze.
“Why… so fragile? Is it because of being betrayed, hurt, that makes me yearn so much for the feeling of safety?”
She secretly pondered in her heart. Despite all the usual evasion, pretending to be a haughty, proud young lady, it’s hard to deny that she is actually a very insecure girl.
Thus, she would covet this beauty, longing for this warmth, this embrace…
Savoring the happy, joyful times, making her fear sorrow so much, resist it so much.
However, joy is always fleeting, sorrow is the long melody.
But…
The young girl secretly raised her golden eyes. Fortunately, the young man did not notice.
“But, no matter what, I promised… I’ll be your little wife.” She softly said, her face revealing a touching, impeccable smile.
