Chereads / Souls of the Damned / Chapter 343 - Astute

Chapter 343 - Astute

Rom braced himself for what was to come. Edýia undressing before him. He already knew that she would dangle her luscious curves before him. It was pretty much like dangling a piece of meat in front of a wild beast, without letting him have a taste of it. Even though fully aware of what would come his way Rom's eyes followed Edýia as she walked back to the dressing table.

Edýia brushed her braid and smiled pleased with his work. It was the only thing he'd mastered during the time he'd spent raising Maya.

Edýia glanced from the corner of her eye at Rom, who looked like a criminal awaiting his sentence. She had just the right punishment for him. One of many. He would pay for what he'd done. It was a lesson that she'd learned the hard way from Haren. Nothing goes unpunished. No good or bad deeds.

Rom cleared his throat as Edýia tugged on her nightgown and pulled it over her head, revealing her sumptuous curves. Regret didn't even begin to cover how he felt in those moments. Any other day, he'd be buried between her legs, sucking at her bosom. Rom released the breath that he was holding as Edýia preened herself in the mirror, in all her glorious nakedness. It was harder than he'd thought. Rom shook his head trying to gather his wits.

" Does it still hurt?" He asked trying to distract himself from staring at her curves. The rising heat and cock did no good to him.

Edýia turned to him wearing a mischievous grin. Oh, he knew that grin, all, too well. She was up to no good.

" Yes. A little " She lasciviously answered, measuring him from head to toe. She was doing his head in.

" Where?" He rasped, feeling the knot in his throat tighten. He could barely breathe. The urge to lunge at her, kiss and ravage her was a sore reminder of what he'd lost.

Edýia raised her eyes and placed her finger in the corner of her mouth " Here " she said in a titillating voice as her finger traced downward towards her breast and stopped over her heart " Here" she said in the same alluring voice and her finger travelled down over her breast and stopped on her tummy " And here" Edýia's finger swirled over her tummy, salaciously.

Rom gulped scrambling his head for a quick retort.

" Can I kiss it better?" That was the only thing that came to mind. It was something he used to say to Maya when she was little and hurt herself.

Edýia bit her lips and fluttered her eyelashes at him " No" she ceased the enticing in the blink of an eye and dressed before he even had a chance to come to his senses.

Rom cleared his throat and threw his head back, in a failed attempt to clean himself off the floor. She would torture him and she will enjoy it. He would pay through his nose, for what he'd done. Forgiveness didn't seem to be in Edýia's nature.

Seeing that there was no chance for him to get any. Rom slowly gathered himself and changed his clothes under Edýia's scrutinising gaze. He knew she loved him, but she was also angry. So, suck it up. He told himself as he tucked his erection in his briefs.

" Ready ?" Edýia asked as she pushed herself off the dressing table.

" Yes," Rom muttered with a frown " Down, boy" he barked at his cock as he joined her at the door.

Edýia giggled " I love you, but you're still a prick, and I'm still angry" She opened the door and stepped into the corridor.

Rom followed her suit, with a deep frown. Either her words had gashed deeper than she thought they would or he was upset because of his unsatisfied needs. He was glaring at his groin.

" I love you too " Rom grumbled under his breath " I know, I'm an idiot but I'm on the mend." Rom sighed and rolled his eyes, tucking his erection in his trousers.

Edýia glanced over her shoulder " I'm not changing my mind. Not until you're cured" She amusedly said as her gaze drifted to the bulge protruding from his trousers.

Fed up, Rom tugged on his tunic and pulled over his trouser to cover it up. As they closed in on the steps. The lively chatter coming from the dining hall reached his ears. All the people that resided on Dakran's patch of the land gathered under one roof.

A tall, dark-haired man with broad shoulders and a scowl to last for days appeared through the front door. Edýia squeaked and skipped the last steps, rushing towards him.

" Corvin" Edýia jumped into his arms, chuffed.

" Little one" Corvin hugged Edýia to his chest and lit up like the summer skies.

Rom puffed his cheeks. Trouble on the horizon.

" It's good to see you. Are you well?" Corvin asked as he pulled from the embrace, eyeing Edýia from head to toe.

Edýia nodded, grinning from ear to ear " Yes" she replied all breathy and flustered.

Edýia glanced towards him and Corvin followed her eyesight.

" This is Rom" Edýia made the introduction, blushing.

Corvin shook his hand and nodded, sullenly.

" You're up the duff." He chuckled and shifted his attention back to Edýia.

Edýia frowned " How do you know?" she curiously asked with a pout.

Corvin chuckled " If I were a man that's how I would trap your disobedient little behind. Put one in you to make sure, you stay still. " Corvin cleared his throat when Edýia glared at him and wiped the smugness off his face.

Despite the crude remark, Corvin wasn't completely off the mark.

" That is not true" Edýia blushed again and it was enough to make him think that she had her heart set on someone else before he came along.

Corvin chuckled " Say what you like. But you are the living and breathing proof that I'm right." He said with utmost conviction, nodding.

At his words Edýia's eyes shifted back to him, questioning. He was under a lot of fire lately.

" No" Rom answered and shook his head at the question in her eyes.

" Hopeful, yes" He changed his answer when Edya frowned and quirked her brow at him.

" See. Men are dim-witted. They only think with their meat" Corvin chuckled at his own words, beyond amused at his witty remark.

Edýia frowned, musing " You mean their manhood" she added, certain that she was right and she was. In her wonderous curiosity, Edýia asked a lot of questions to satisfy her desire to know more about everything.

" I see that you getting fucked by a red was quite eye-opening " Corvin cleared his throat again when Edýia glared.

" I've been waiting for this moment for quite some time. I'm nothing like your brother, Dakran. I'm more like the other one. There is no sieve up here. There is no in-between " Corvin shrugged pointing at his head, at ease as if he was speaking of baking fucking bread.

" I would be grateful if you would find one around Edýia " Rom frowned and reached his hand towards Edýia.

" I see. What's next? Piss on her leg?" Corvin clicked his tongue, calm, steady. Everything that he wasn't.

" No" Rom drawled " I don't need to. But it certainly seems like something you would do" Rom retorted deadpan, with a satisfied grin.

" Let's have some food. I'm sure you're hungry " Rom turned his attention onto Edýia who kinda off stared between him and Corvin.

Charming man if you've lived in the woods your entire life and haven't met anyone with a pulse.

Corvin cleared his throat, and it seemed that his words had finally broken through the stone aplomb that Corvin had put around himself.

" Sounds good. Mind if I join?" Corvin's tone had shifted to something more palatable. And he could finally breathe.

" Of course" Edýia beamed and finally moved her feet.
