The Duke's Passion

Chapter 692 Sorry too!

692 Sorry too!

"Please don't be sad and don't cry anymore."

His eyes softened as he smiled, nodding at her. "I'm not crying."

"Your heart does... it's bleeding." Her brows rose as her nervousness increased. She didn't know if she had the right to point out the things she had been noticing ever since her eyes met with those pair of crimson eyes the first time until now.

Samael had a fatal beauty, yet his eyes looked like they were someone who was on the brink of breaking.

It was painful to watch.

"Maybe..." he shrugged and was followed by a weak chuckle. "Lilou, I know you gave me a chance, but refrain from saying things that touch my heart. I might forget you don't remember certain things."

Lilou blinked as she cocked her head to the side. "What are you going to do?"

"Huh?"

"What will you do if you forget I don't remember things?" she repeated out of plain curiosity.

Hearing her inquiry and the expression plastered across her face, Samael could not help but laugh. He shook his head, running his fingers through his hair while biting his lower lip.

"What would I do if I forget the line?" he dawdled, raising his eyes on her, only to catch the genuine wonder in her eyes. "A lot."

Lilou gasped for air as she clutched his chest. "Like?"

"Making love with you or fucking you... hard," Samael confessed under his breath, feeling her spine with his palm until his thumb reached the side of her neck. "Your clothes, no matter how many layers you wear and cover your body, I can always rip them apart in seconds."

He closed his eyes as he caught up to his breathing, pulling her until he was embracing her. Samael lowered his head until his forehead was resting on her shoulder. As he embraced her in silence, her breath hitched while noticing the vibration of his grip.

"You're driving me crazy, love," came out a muffled remark. "I'm not experimenting with you... I am loving you deeper and deeper."

Her lips pressed into a tight slash as she raised a hand. But before she could place it on his back, Lilou paused.

"I'm sorry... I can't remember," she muttered bitterly. No matter how good and gentle her first kiss was and how it left her weak and wanting more, she couldn't understand his struggles. Or maybe a little, but not entirely.

"But... what I can remember is you stole my first kiss." This time, his trembling stopped as he froze instantly. "I don't know what to feel."

Samael blinked back to his senses before he carefully let her go. Holding her shoulder as he distances himself, his mouth opened and closed like a fish, but no words came out.

"I — I'm sorry...?" he blurted out in panic, but her unreadable expression immediately turned sour which he didn't intend.

"That's what you are going to say if you steal a maiden's first kiss?" she asked in dismay.

"No — I mean, I was just lost —"

"Tch. Jerk," Lilou mumbled as he tried to explain, clicking her tongue in irritation. "Sorry too, then!" she spat out before stomping her feet away, leaving him confused.
