Conquest Complete, So Why Is the Affection Dropping? - Chapter 47
“……Yes.”
Why do I feel so embarrassed even though everything was resolved as I wanted? I let out a small sigh and pushed myself off the desk with both hands.
“Ouch!”
Oh no, I’d forgotten that in my determination to disturb Kaint’s work, I’d sat on not just the documents but his pen too.
When the sharp pen tip poked my bottom, I reflexively tried to stand up, but one of my legs slipped. With nowhere to place my hands, it was natural that my center of gravity shifted forward.
“Shin Joo!”
Kaint tried to catch me, but my hands were faster. In my panic, I grabbed Kaint’s thigh tightly and steadied myself with my other hand on his chest.
Fortunately, I avoided the accident of falling into his arms.
“……”
“……”
……This doesn’t feel fortunate at all.
“Shin Joo……”
Kaint’s voice from above my head was different from usual. A faint breath floated over his deeply suppressed male groan.
In my awkward position, neither standing nor sitting, I rolled my eyes to look at Kaint’s face and saw his neck had turned bright red.
Those golden eyes, which had remained composed even when shy before, were now severely shaking.
“Um, Admiral… eek?”
Something suddenly squirmed under my hand, making me startle and drop my head.
I thought I had steadied myself on Kaint’s left thigh when I fell, but…
‘My god, why is it so big?’
What I had grabbed wasn’t his thigh. The volume was too different to mistake it for one.
Had Kaint been walking around with this all this time? It wasn’t my imagination that the two sides of his uniform pants looked different.
“Um, Admiral.”
“…ngh…”
“I’m sorry. This was an accident…”
“Ah, don’t grip it like that…!”
Kaint swallowed hard with a ‘huk’ sound as he furrowed his brows. I also flinched in surprise, making my hand contract.
No, I shouldn’t contract it – I should let go!
While I was frozen, feeling the clear sensation of his manhood twitching through his clothes, Kaint’s hand covered mine. A tingling sensation coursed through where our skin met.
“Haah…”
Missing the time to let go was the root of the problem. The large man’s hand wrapped around mine, instinctively starting to move up and down.
“Shin Joo…”
“K-Kaint.”
“Did you come here… to do this sort of thing…?”
No!
I came here ready to fight with Kaint to get Hexion healed, not to sexually harass him in broad daylight in his office.
But facing Kaint, who was speaking with difficulty with his reddened face, I couldn’t bring myself to make excuses.
His reaction was too unexpected.
The man who had remained nothing but cold and dignified even on the wave-tossed ship was now completely helpless from just my single hand. No, perhaps ‘helpless’ isn’t the right word since he was the one keeping my hand from pulling away.
But how else could I describe those ragged breaths escaping through his tightly clenched lips?
I was caught between Kaint, who was sitting in his chair, and his work desk, in a position where I could neither sit nor stand properly, leaning against him.
The thought of correcting my posture quickly flew away. Despite his proper attire buttoned up to his neck without a gap, the sensation under my palm was far too obscene.
“Shin Joo, ah…”
Kaint let out another shaky breath. When I applied pressure with my fingertips, his body twitched.
This man, more than twice my size, was panting like a deer caught by the throat. This was the first time I’d seen him so disheveled – the same man who had remained calm even when I was burning with anger.
My heart was pounding wildly. My cheeks felt hot as if I’d been slapped. My breathing grew rough in response.
Clearly, until I sat on those documents on his desk, I thought I wouldn’t mind if my attempt to persuade Kaint failed.
But now that he had agreed to my demands and my worries about Hexion had disappeared, other thoughts suddenly raised their heads.
How fickle the human heart is.
“Kaint. You were trying to dismiss me saying you were working, weren’t you?”
“Shin Joo, that’s, ungh…”
“Yet here you are, completely losing control at my touch – were you really planning to just read documents so calmly?”
When I pressed down with my palm and twisted my wrist in a circular motion, the veins on Kaint’s hand covering mine bulged prominently.
His face, looking at me with wide surprised eyes, showed a mixture of bewilderment and shame.
“Shin Joo. I never… wanted this sort of thing.”
“Why don’t you say that after letting go of my hand?”
Isn’t he the one keeping my hand wrapped around his manhood? Though it might have been an instinctive action rather than intentional, saying he didn’t want it was clearly a lie.
At my words, Kaint flinched and loosened his grip. When I moved my wrist to shake off his hand, his expression contorted. A desperate look entered his somehow urgent eyes.
“This is really funny.”
“Shin Joo…”
“You were already like this before I even touched you.”
I wasn’t mistaken earlier. Setting aside the size, it was hard enough that I could have mistaken it for a handle.
“No. This isn’t… usually…”
“It can’t always be like this, right? At this level, you wouldn’t be able to focus on work or training.”
“When I see you, sometimes…”
“Sometimes?”
“……Always……”
His dignified face turned red with shame. His usually sharp eyes now held a seductive light.
“You’re saying you’re always like this when you see me?”
“Ungh……”
“For someone who commands hundreds of subordinates, you can’t even control your own body. This won’t do.”
When I moved the hand that was on his chest down and wrapped both hands around his manhood, he squeezed his eyes shut and bit his lip. Hot, suppressed breaths escaped.
Although he could easily pin me down if he wanted to, Kaint gripped the armrests tightly without touching my body, breathing heavily.
Was he being proper, or just innocent?
Even though his thighs were taut with tension and his hips kept jerking, he maintained a stable posture, staying firmly in his chair.
“Didn’t you say you had to review reports? Looks like quite a lot.”
“……ungh……”
“Should I just leave? I shouldn’t disturb you while you’re working.”
Kaint urgently buried his face in my shoulder. Though his hands remained on the armrests, I knew this was his way of trying to keep me from leaving. As he rubbed his forehead against my collar while panting, he was like a beast begging for food.
“Shin Joo, please continue……”
“I can’t hear you well.”
“Continue, please keep rubbing. Don’t stop……”
“Why?”
“……ngh, because it… feels good……”
I never knew the one who always acted like an elegant prince could express his desires so explicitly. I never knew the dignified man could be so weak to pleasure. Though it seemed somewhat unfitting, I didn’t dislike it.
‘No, rather……’
You could say I wanted to torment him more.
“You talked about wanting to be sworn brothers, but it seems Kaint didn’t really mean that either.”
When I lifted my body slightly with one foot on the floor, Kaint looked at me with an urgent expression. He probably thought I was going to stop caressing him and leave.
“Shin Joo, please……”
“Please what?”
“……Don’t, be angry.”
Come to think of it, I came here furious and ready to fight. Though Kaint accepted my demands so quickly that I didn’t even get to throw a single punch.
Surprisingly, all that accumulated irritation had completely vanished without leaving a trace.
Where did all that fighting spirit I’d built up go? It seems it gave way to the mischievous desire to make this much taller younger man cry.
“That depends on how Kaint behaves.”
When I grabbed his belt buckle, Kaint’s expression turned to shock.
“Don’t you want this?”
“N-no, that’s not……”
“Then, do you want it?”
At my teasing question, Kaint squeezed his eyes shut again. Someone might think I was toying with him. Yet he was the one who had grabbed my hand and asked me to continue.
I’m glad Kaint and I don’t have a master-servant relationship. I don’t need to censor myself wondering whether my actions are coercive due to hierarchy.
“Kaint. Answer me.”
“……Yes……”
Kaint nodded slightly with his thoroughly reddened face. Even he seemed ashamed of giving such an answer, biting his lip again.
No, perhaps he was anticipating what would come next.
“This really won’t do. What do you think I’m going to do, getting so excited like this?”
“Huu……”
When I turned the buckle to undo his belt, his breathing became markedly more feral. The man’s scent, which I had always found somewhat sweet, now mixed with a male’s distinctive musky aroma.
There was no need to pull aside his underwear – his massive manhood raised its head, twitching as if begging to be touched. I lowered my hand and wrapped it around Kaint’s member.
