chapter 51
51 – Open (1)
*
Sylvia raised her head with her eyes closed.
A wind carrying the smell of the river blew through the cool night air and brushed her chin and the tip of her nose.
She undid her belt and dropped her to the ground.
He took off his clothes, which were hardened by the bloody water, and dropped them on the sand one by one.
Tok, tok,
The robe and tunic that covered her body fell to the ground with a sound that was too heavy to be called cloth.
Under Sylvia’s feet, clothes rolled in a ball were lying crumpled, and in the middle of them, Sylvia’s bare body with pure white skin was shining in the moonlight.
Sylvia stepped over her clothes and walked forward.
Grains of sand gently wrapped around my feet.
With each step forward, the grains of sand dug between my toes grew colder and colder.
I could feel the coldness of the soles of my feet and the dampness of the water.
“Yes,”
Sylvia trembled slightly and stepped into the cold river.
My snagging ankle was so cold that I wanted to get my foot out right away, but seeing the clots of blood falling off in the running water, it was clear that I needed a bath.
Sylvia took a deep breath and boldly strode into the water.
As the wind passes through the water-soaked skin, the body cools down.
I needed something to keep me warm.
Sylvia looked back slowly and said.
“Are you not coming?”
Ash stood outside the river, hesitant.
He said that he would not be able to leave the house due to the trauma, but it seemed that he could come out with Sylvia.
The sight of Ash clinging to Sylvia’s arm and hanging on to it all the way down to the river, not caring about the monster’s blood staining her body, was very sad and cute to her.
Sylvia looked at the hesitant Ash and opened her mouth once more.
“ash. The river water is cold.”
“yes?”
“I’m cold.”
“…?”
Ash stared blankly at Sylvia, unaware of what Sylvia was saying, then hurriedly looked away.
Seeing Ash’s foolish appearance, Sylvia smiled slightly and said,
“…hug me.”
Ash hesitated, then nodded slowly.
Sylvia called Ash to stop him as he slowly put his foot forward and was about to enter the water.
“for a moment.”
“…Why, why?”
“Are you going to take a bath in your clothes?”
“…”
Sylvia laughed mischievously.
Ash blushed and staggered as if embarrassed.
Seeing Ash like that, she felt satisfaction spreading in her heart.
Trauma, guilt, sadness, bitterness.
All those emotions that eat away at Ash’s mind.
The black soot that formed in the heart that Sylvia also knew very well.
If this sinful body could bring Ash out of such pain for even a moment, he couldn’t ask for more.
Sylvia slightly bowed her back as if to show off her large breasts.
The bottom of her bouncing breasts snapped almost to touch in the cold water.
“are you okay. Come quickly.”
Ash closed his eyes and carefully lifted his tunic.
Ash’s soft skin was gradually revealed starting from his legs.
Sylvia focused on that figure.
Time seems to flow slowly.
Ash’s hand taking off his clothes, the river flowing through Sylvia’s body, and the movement of the clouds slowly covering and revealing the moonlight.
Everyone moved lazily.
As always.
In the meantime, it was difficult to gauge how strongly this slow time shook and gnawed at Sylvia’s spirit.
But at least for this moment, the slow flow of time is so nice,
Sylvia thought so sincerely.
Last night, Ash’s body, which I only glanced at from the side of my eye.
Even now, it was hidden in the dark and could not be seen properly.
But rather, that blur pressed the bellows in Sylvia’s head harder and harder.
A wind full of heat gushes out of Sylvia’s nose, and the furnace in her heated head heats up as if it will melt everything.
Sylvia’s guilt, worries, conscience, and even the last handful of loneliness all melt away.
The molten iron mixed with various emotions soon hardened slowly as it was poured into the frame of thought.
Just one thought completed like that.
Right now, at this moment, a single thought as heavy as a well-forged piece of iron filled her head.
‘I want to hug Ash.’
Sylvia hugged her arm and sighed quietly.
“Come quickly, Ash.”
In her red eyes, like molten lava, a slow-flowing hot desire blazed quietly.
*
Ash let out a trembling sigh as the cold river water wrapped around his calves.
It wasn’t the coldness I had imagined.
Ash had to stop abruptly and wait for his body to get used to the cold that felt as if his legs were being cut with a sharp sword.
Sylvia was waiting for Ash as she slowly dipped her body up to her shoulders into the river.
It wasn’t that she was relaxing.
Sylvia rather needed this cold river water.
If I couldn’t lower this burning heat that seemed to set my whole body on fire, I would grab Ash right away and wield his body as I wished.
However, the coldness of the river, which only awkwardly cooled the outer skin, was far from enough to put out the fire in her heart.
Sylvia bit her lip and looked at Ash.
His pelvis, waist, and chest darkened one after another, and he approached as he was submerged in the water.
Ash also looked at Sylvia’s face, which was getting closer.
At that moment, Ash remembered the day the curse was right on her for the first time.
Her figure, bathing leisurely in the river with white skin and brilliant hair shining under the moonlight, was so beautiful that even if you mistook it for a fairy or a goddess, you could understand.
He remembered vividly how beautiful her face was that day as he peeped through the trees.
And now, the beautiful woman’s eyes, nose and mouth were getting closer and closer.
At a distance where we can reach if we stretch out our hands, at a distance where we can feel each other’s breath,
And soon, at a distance where each other’s noses are almost touching.
“hug me,”
After saying that, Sylvia hugged Ash herself.
Ash’s body clings to Sylvia’s.
Warmth spread over Ash’s skin, which had been covered only by the cold chill.
For some reason, the warmth felt reassuring, Ash let out a comfortable breath and rested his head on Sylvia’s shoulder.
“Huh…”
“Sorry for leaving you alone. I should have expected it.”
Saying that, Sylvia put her arm between Ash’s armpits and hugged her tighter.
It was a tenacious embrace, as if not leaving any gaps between the two.
Ash’s legs, which were floating due to the buoyancy of the water, were tightly intertwined with Sylvia’s legs.
Ash, who lost his sense of balance, hugged Sylvia tightly to avoid being swept away by the current.
She took Ash’s full weight and tucked her chin into his shoulder.
Like pieces of a puzzle, the two fit each other’s gaps with their entire bodies.
Ash looked at Sylvia’s golden hair tickling the tip of his nose and opened his mouth slowly.
“sorry.”
“hmm? what?”
“This morning…”
Sylvia realized what Ash was trying to say a little later.
He had been aggressive towards Sylvia for refusing to kiss him this morning.
Sylvia laughed and shook her head.
“don’t mind. I already told you. I did more.”
“I know what kind of person Sylvia is… I knew for sure that you did your best to save me, who had no connection whatsoever… To such a benefactor, I…”
“stop.”
Sylvia interrupted Ash with a slightly determined voice.
Honestly, it didn’t matter that Ash mistook himself for being a good person.
No, it was welcome.
Sylvia had already concluded in her heart that the farther away Ash was from the truth, the better.
But for some reason, I didn’t want to hear him complimenting himself.
It seemed that the slightest bit of conscience for ruining his life, and also for taking his sister’s life, was screaming that it was unacceptable.
“I’m more sorry… I let Ash go through that… after all…”
“Oh no!”
“… fool.”
“…yes?”
Sylvia slowly raised her head and looked at Ash.
Ash’s watery eyes seemed to be wetter than the rippling surface of the water.
His cheeks and lips looked very moist.
And, it was the same between Sylvia’s legs that was wet.
Sylvia slowly squeezed Ash’s lips.
“Sylvie… Eup?”
“Shh,”
A white light rose from Sylvia’s chest, traveled down her arms, passed through her fingertips, and eventually reached Ash’s lips.
Ash was already used to this warmth and light.
I felt the divine power slowly calming my chapped lips.
After a while, Sylvia moved her hand slowly from Ash’s lips to his cheek.
That touch was so warm even without divine power, so Ash slowly opened and closed his eyes.
“ash.”
“…yes,”
“I want to kiss you.”
Sylvia, who was touching Ash’s lips with the thumb of the hand holding Ash’s cheek, said so.
Ash slowly moved the arm around Sylvia’s waist to her back.
Naturally, the bodies of the two came closer together.
He slowly approached her lips.
Close enough to exchange each other’s breath just by opening their mouths.
At that distance, which was barely within reach, Ash quietly whispered.
“me too.”
The hot flames that had been roaming like crazy inside Sylvia’s body finally burst out.
The firepower made her move faster and stronger.
Sylvia pressed her lips against Ash’s like a prey animal.
I wanted to pour all the hot heat created in her body into Ash’s mouth.
But Sylvia could clearly feel it.
That Ash’s arms clinging to his back were full of strength, and that the breath coming out of his mouth was as hot as Sylvia’s.
Ash even boldly stuck his tongue into Sylvia’s mouth first.
The way she tapped her teeth was as careful as he was, but he gradually entered the depths without stopping.
Ash must have wanted to catch and eat Sylvia right away.
Something hot touching Sylvia’s stomach was proving that fact.
