BID Chapter 141

A shock suddenly hit me as if I’d been struck on the head. I stared blankly at Zachary, whose eyes were so piercing that I wondered if the spell had truly been broken completely.

“I-I can explain everything.”

I hastily continued. He stared at me, erasing even his sneer. Now, no emotion remained on his expressionless face.

“The Serpentine family’s spell is an education that seeps into the mind first. When under the brainwashing spell, hatred for the Serpentine family disappears, leaving only loyalty. You’ve awakened, but the spell hasn’t been fully broken yet. It’s clear that you can’t kill me even though you hate me…”

“Haha, hahaha!”

Suddenly, Zachary burst into loud laughter.

“So, you’re saying you’ll free me from the spell? And once the spell is broken, I should kill you?”

Zachary killing me… I had certainly imagined such an end before, but hearing those words from Zachary’s mouth made my heart sink.

“You’d even face death. Young Master, you mean you’d do anything for poor me, is that right?”

“…”

“Isn’t that so?”

I couldn’t answer easily. But under his seemingly urging gaze, I finally had no choice but to carefully nod.

“Anything I can do…”

I don’t know if someone as lacking as me would be satisfactory, but if it could help Zachary even a little.

“Who couldn’t say such pretty words?”

“It’s not just words…”

Zachary’s eyes narrowed. However, contrary to his smiling eyes, for some reason his voice was tinged with anger.

And he ordered me without hesitation.

“Then smile.”

It was a completely unexpected demand.

“Like you were smiling beautifully at the mansion, like a happy newlywed.”

It took a while to understand his words. They were so unexpected.

Besides, to suddenly tell me to smile. I was dumbfounded, as if I’d suddenly forgotten how to smile. Then Zachary slowly pressed his body against mine.

“Can’t you smile?”

There was no way I could smile. No matter how hard I tried, only the corners of my mouth trembled.

“I… I can’t.”

I had to confess honestly under his oppressive gaze. Zachary narrowed his eyes slightly.

“So you don’t even want to smile for me anymore.”

“…”

“Well, I’m not your wife after all.”

I was puzzled why Genevieve’s story suddenly came up, but I had no time to think further. Before I knew it, Zachary had grabbed me and laid my body down on the bed. As I tried to escape in surprise, he pressed me down from above.

Looking up from below, his dark blue eyes were even clearer. The all-too-familiar body scent kept bringing back memories of the past.

‘Get a grip.’

But I shouldn’t indulge in such sentiments anymore. The man before me was not the attendant Zachary who used to stay by my side, but the prince of the Holy Empire. But even though I knew I shouldn’t dwell on past memories anymore, why did I…

“…Huh?”

Suddenly, Zachary used his fingertips to pull up both corners of my mouth.

It was a gesture forcing me to smile, as if playing a prank. Without realizing it, a sound escaped through my teeth. It was a stupid sound closer to “ugh” than “huh.”

How ridiculous must I look? With a flushed face, messy hair, and forcibly pulled-up corners of my mouth. Yet he stared intently at my ugly face for a long time. It was when Zachary’s gaze fell on my forcibly opened mouth. Suddenly, his fingertips slid into my mouth.

“Ugh, urp.”

His dry hand roughly probed the moist mucous membrane. He pressed his fingertips hard against the roof of my mouth and scratched as if tickling.

I could barely see Zachary through my half-open eyes. I wanted to read his expression in detail, but because of his deeply inserted fingers, my vision kept blurring with moisture.

“Urgh.”

His long fingers stabbed at my throat. Physiological tears welled up and I felt nauseous. I could feel saliva I couldn’t swallow running down my chin. But Zachary paid no heed and continued to probe inside my mouth. When I grabbed his arm, gagging, only then did Zachary withdraw his fingers, now wet with saliva.

“Huff, hah.”

I gasped for the breath I had been barely holding. As oxygen was finally supplied, my rough breathing came out loud.

My already feverish body struggled even with this short exertion. My vision spun as I couldn’t focus. While I couldn’t gather my thoughts, Zachary was silently staring at his own hand.

“…”

As he looked at his hand, wet with my saliva, he slowly shifted his gaze to me. At the same time, his eyes, as deep and dark blue as the sea, seemed to crash over me like a tidal wave.

I felt as if I was being submerged in him from head to toe, as if stripped naked.

“Young Master.”

His hand, which had delved in unhesitatingly, grasped my center. He wore a sneer.

“Young Master doesn’t have an honest bone in his body…”

Zachary, who had trailed off for a moment, slowly bowed his head. And as if to show me, he whispered mockingly with his well-shaped lips right in front of my eyes.

“…But this part seems honest.”

What? But Zachary didn’t give me time to be shocked. Zachary moved his hand while gripping my genitals. I inhaled sharply and curled up my body. I instinctively tried to back away to escape, but it was useless.

“Hng, uh. Zachary…”

His cold hand shook my genitals relentlessly, as if knowing exactly where and how to touch to make it feel better. His moist lips clung to my neck and wouldn’t let go.

My body reacted sensitively to even the slightest stimulation he gave.

“W-wait a moment.”

Why did it suddenly turn out like this?

I barely managed to grab Zachary’s wrist. Zachary’s dark blue eyes looked at me as if they would swallow me whole.

Zachary forcefully pressed me down.

“Hng, uck.”

I couldn’t even speak properly due to his rough touch.

Proper words wouldn’t come out due to the extreme sensation. All that escaped through my teeth were suppressed moans. My body, heated with familiar pleasure, simultaneously provided dizzying pain and pleasure that felt like I might collapse at any moment.

At that moment, he kissed me. It was a merciless, fierce kiss, like the fingers that had just been probing inside my mouth.

“Huh… mmph.”

It was so overwhelming that I couldn’t breathe properly. I grabbed his shoulders and pushed, trembling, but Zachary didn’t budge an inch. My head, which I couldn’t hold up properly, fell back as if bent. He cupped the back of my head with one hand and kissed me even more deeply.

Then his other hand slipped between the folds of my clothes. The sensation of his cool hand rubbing against my heated body was chilling.

If I surrendered my body to Zachary like this, this precarious pleasure would soon come to an end. But as soon as I saw his eyes, all the heat that had been filling me seemed to drain away.

‘Why with that face…’

His lower body was visibly bulging, radiating heat just from looking at it. On the contrary, his eyes remained coldly frozen. Only then did I try to somehow come to my senses. Because it didn’t seem like he was doing this because he wanted to.

‘He hates me but can’t let go of me.’

He was doing this while enduring his disgust because of the Serpentine family’s spell.

If I gave in to excitement again and mingled flesh with him, it would be no different from repeating my previous mistake.

“Zachary, please s-stop…”

The hand gripping his wrist trembled violently. Zachary’s gaze turned to my wrist as his hand pushed into my pants.

“…”

Contrary to my expectations, he withdrew his hand far too easily.

I tried to quickly straighten my clothes in this gap. Zachary’s hand was already sticky and glistening with my bodily fluids.

Shame and embarrassment came over me in an instant. As I was about to turn away, unable to bear it, my eyes met Zachary’s. He was watching me observantly with sunken eyes.

“Young Master, I like you… I like you so much.”

Suddenly, the image of Zachary looking only at me, as if I were the only one in the world, overlapped with this cold man.

‘Get a grip. That Zachary back then wasn’t real. Rather, this is the real one…’

I bit my lip.

“J-just a moment.”

Even though I knew, I felt like I was about to crumble. It was difficult to pretend nothing was wrong. I didn’t even know what expression I was making. I just desperately hoped that Zachary wouldn’t see my face right now. I tried to turn my face away casually to hide my expression.

But Zachary grabbed my cheek in one swift motion and pulled me towards him.

“You said you’d do anything. But why are you looking at me with that face?”

“…”

“Are you trying to smooth things over by coaxing and soothing me this time too? And then abandon me again?”

“W-what are you saying? No. I’ve never…”

“Then you should keep your promise.”

He looked down at his hand wet with my bodily fluids and smirked. Then he ordered in a chilling tone.

“Take it off right now.”

While maintaining an icily cold gaze.

“Everything.”
