FLBE Chapter 4 Part 3
by SYLPHSparks flew in her eyes as the man aggressively yanked her closer, trapping her in his arms and running his hands down tracing her body. The rough sound of his breathing in her ear made her heart pound crazily. The gentle rubbing of her bottom made her feel dizzy.
“Do, don’t do this…! What if someone sees us!”
“Your resistance just makes me want to do more. And don’t worry. There’s no one here who can see us. As long as your scattered pheromones don’t attract anyone else…”
He can sense my pheromones? Exactly who on earth is this guy?
A chill ran down her spine as Rhetrik’s words suddenly flashed before her eyes.
‘If you go around like this and get caught by the other alphas, your body will meet its end. Those bastards are anything but sane when faced with delicious prey.’
All the other alphas… Could this man possibly be an alpha too?
Goosebumps covered her body in an instant.
“You, who, who are you…?”
“Right, I didn’t introduce myself. Please call me Lance. It would be such a delight to hear my name from your sweet voice.”
This guy was just as insane as Rhetrik. His rapid shift from anger to sardonic laughter was disturbing and strange. He was still a handsome man, but his beauty was now imbued with a sense of fear. If he was an alpha, she was indeed his prey.
“Then, since you’ve permitted, should we greet each other again?”
“I, I didn’t-!”
Suddenly pushed up against the muscular body of this man, her head was forced back sharply and Liena found herself breathless. The situation was shocking as his soft tongue entered and conquered every corner of her mouth.
The kiss she experienced in reality, flooded her body with more ar*usal compared to the dream. Liena was on the brink of madness; her body was reacting uncontrollably to this dangerous man.
At that moment, Liena realized that if she fell into the clutches of an alpha, she might truly be doomed. An alpha’s pheromones were no more than narcotics to her.
The moment her previously protesting body began to relax, Lance’s kisses became more and more intense. His floral scent became more potent, and his lips strongly ravished hers, as his tongue entangled with hers. Inch by inch his tongue leisurely explored her entire mouth from sweeping across the teeth to teasing the budding peak in her mouth, leaving a trail of saliva.
Lance gently sucked and playfully teased her tongue, drawing her closer. His body, straddling hers, released more of his pheromones in response to her quivering. Gradually, her once rigid tongue began to respond.
Their mingling saliva, and the sultry sounds with every entwining of their tongues, further intensified the secretive atmosphere of the balcony. As the blissful sensations from her dream took root in her mind, Liena’s body continued to grow hotter. Her mind cautioning her not to do it was quickly drowned by her body succumbing to his fervent kiss.
When their locked lips parted, Liena slowly opened her eyes. Lying down on a small couch, unknowing of when she had been moved, she stared blankly at the man straddling her.
The cool breeze tamed her scorching heat, and her startled consciousness returned instantly. She hurriedly covered her mouth, but upon seeing Lance’s swollen lips glistening with her saliva, her face flushed. She was at a loss, staring at the traces she left on him.
Then, she felt a strange sense of déjà vu. The hefty body pinning her down, the intense floral scent of his pheromones – it felt like the scenes from her dream were being recreated. Was it a hallucination? Was it all a dream…?
In the royal palace, especially in such a high room, no one could infiltrate without being detected. Rhetrik was not such a neglectful man. But this man had slipped in, even took his liberty with her.
Was it really just a dream? While her situation dictated it was a dream, her senses adamantly claimed otherwise.
“Do you still dislike me?”
“You… who are you?”
“I introduced myself a while ago. Now it’s your turn, right?”
“Are we really meeting for the first time?”
“Well, considering we met before… this would probably be the second time, right?”
His beaming smile seemed to hide some kind of secret. But she couldn’t just rattle off about her dream and ask for confirmation. How could she utter such embarrassing words in front of the very person involved?
However, it did feel strange. A persistent sense of familiarity kept gnawing at her.
Ugh, why does it matter right now?
She was curious, but for now, survival was more critical. So, Liena begged him.
“Step aside …His Majesty might arrive soon.”
“So after passionately coveting my lips, you’re just going to leave?”
“That, that was… ha…”
Despite him initiating it, she couldn’t deny that she, too, had responded to his kiss. That was an undeniable fact.
“Please step aside… If we continue like this, both of us will really die.”
“Because of whom? The emperor?”
“Do you not know how terrifying a person he is? He must be searching for me by now.”
“Is he really that scary?”
“We don’t have time for this banter…!”
“If you hadn’t pulled away, we would probably be joined as one by now. Did I give you an unnecessary break?”
“Lance!”
As his name left her lips, Lance’s expression softened like that of a child. He sighed deeply and pressed his lips against her throat. He mumbled to himself with a childish delight.
“Ah… it’s more thrilling than I anticipated. I didn’t expect my name being called would excite me so much.”
“Step, step aside…!”
“Stay still for a moment. Right now, I’m holding myself back so much. I want to cover that d*sgusting smell of him that’s radiating off your body with my scent. So, just stay for a little while. Do you know how hard it is for me to restrain?”
“Please, please move aside… what?”
His continuous flirting actions suddenly stopped. Liena, who had swept her hand across her chest, hoping that he was going to grant her request, felt her heart sink at the unexpectedly cold aura of the man. His sudden seriousness startled her, causing her heart to flutter.
“So, make your choice.”
“What…?”
“We don’t have time. He’s almost here.”
“What does that mean?”
“Your most feared emperor is almost at the door. Your pheromones must indeed be special, judging by his swift arrival.”
