Chapter 128: A battle of sincerity

“Goodbye, Fiona.”

Yeah, this was a good thing. Wasn’t this what I wanted from the beginning? Clean break up?

I would be fine. Right, everything would be fine. As time passed, everything….

The sound of his footsteps echoed in my ears very clearly. All my nerves were focused on that little sound. Every time I heard those steps walking away from me, my body somehow felt painful. 

“Don’t go.”

Fine? No, I can’t possibly turn away from this feeling. 

Even though it was a small voice like a flickering candle, Sigren’s footsteps stopped abruptly. 

I approached him and hugged him tightly from behind, and whispered.

“Don’t go, Sigren.”

“….”

Sigren gently released my hands from his waist and then slowly turned around. 

I lightly put my hand on his cheek. This time I looked straight into his eyes.

“I don’t want to break up.”

“Really?”

“Hmm.”

Sigren kissed my forehead and whispered.

“Fiona, I said I’d only ask you once. So are you sure that is really what you want?”

“What I want—”

Should I be honest?

“You would regret it once you know it.”

“It can’t be.”

Sigren’s voice was firm. 

And somehow, it gave me a strange sense of relief. 

Right, after all, I couldn’t lie to myself any longer. Finally, the day, when I had to be honest, has come.

“Then Sigren…”

I closed my eyes and whispered softly.

“I want you.. to be mine.”

Yeah, these feelings have been twisted since a long time ago.

For a moment, Sigren doubted his ears. He looked at the person he loved the most. 

Fiona was smiling sadly. There were clear tears in those beautiful red eyes.

‘Why? How?’

Her face confused Sigren more.

“Really?” Sigren asked.

‘It’s not ‘we should break up’ or ‘she’d been burdened by my feelings’?’

“Yes,”

Fiona looked up and nodded her head. 

There was no lie in that face.

“This is my truth. You don’t like it?”

“Haha…”

Seeing Sigren laugh, tears filled Fiona’s eyes.

“You laugh? I’m serious—”

“You really drive me completely crazy.”

“Hm?”

Sigren’s lips covered Fiona’s lips. 

“….!”

It was a very sudden action. 

Fiona’s eyes were wide open for a moment, in shock, but she quickly responded. She also put her arms around his neck. 

It was a kiss that was rougher than their previous kisses. 

Fiona bit Sigren’s lip, and he lightly sucked her lip back. Sigren held the back of Fiona’s head and kissed her even more deeply. 

For a while, the two licked, bit, and frantically coveted each other’s lips.

It was Fiona who was tired first. For just a second she pulled away to catch her breath, but she was pulled back. A soft tongue ripped through her mouth.

Eventually, Fiona loosened her arms around his neck and pushed his shoulders. But of course, that kind of move was not a force that worked very well in pushing Sigren away. 

However, Sigren understood, and after a brief murmur, reluctant to move away, Sigren eventually let her lips go.

“Hhh…”

Fiona gasped for her breath.

Sigren calmly supported her waist with his arms. 

She leaned her forehead on his shoulder and complained. 

“You, slowly…”

“I’ll try.”

He didn’t say ‘he would not do it anymore’.

Fiona looked at him resentfully.

“….”

But even then, her face right now was very tempting for Sigren. Reddened eyes, flushed cheeks, and swollen lips. A very dangerous look.

Sigren hugged her as he let out a slow breath, trying to control himself. 

“Fiona. Obviously, I said I’d only ask once.”

“Right.”

“And you’ve already answered.”

Fiona blinked quietly. The long eyelashes fluttered.

“Sigren, I have more to say.”

Fiona then continued. 

“I’ll be jealous from now on, too.”

“Good.”

“I won’t ever break up with you.”

“As much as you like.”

“Even when you meet a person who is much better than I am.”

“All up to you.”

“Okay, then I’ll ask you this time.” Fiona opened her eyes and looked right at him. “Whose are you?”

Sigren smiled. He cupped her cheeks and whispered slowly, “I’m yours.”

Actually, it’s been like that for a long time, from the day he first saw her. 

Fiona grabbed him by the collar. 

“You can’t back down now.”

Then her soft lips touched Sigren’s quickly, then fell away. There was a faint rose scent from her light kiss. 

Sigren whispered in a deep voice. “It is what I’m hoping for.”

He bit Fiona’s white neck. He did it leisurely as if a predator tasting its prey that had already been caught. The blue-gray eyes revealed a feeling of satisfaction and desire that could not be hidden.

Fiona’s shoulders trembled when he took that bite. 

Sigren raised his head and smiled. 

“Fiona, you should always own me.”

“Hmm..”

Sigren felt suffocated by the joy that filled his mind. He kissed Fiona, his dear lover, slowly. 

Nothing could be undone now.
