Try Begging - Chapter 101
In order to run away, the first thing to do was to seduce him subtly so that her true feelings would not be revealed.
“Uung…”
She accepted his kisses, but sometimes she avoided them, pretending she didn’t want to. Then, she deliberately grazed the tip of her tongue tantalizingly and twisted her body to rub the bristling nipple on his bare skin.
As planned, the man attacked even more violently.
Was there a beauty trap education in the Revolutionary Army? It was funny. The person who taught Grace, who was ignorant about s*x, was the target of her manipulation.
“Haa…”
The flesh that could not be chewed was violently mixed in the mouths, and the juice flowed down the corners of the mouth. Winston licked Grace’s chin. The lump of flesh pushed up to the corner of her mouth and slowly slid over her swollen lips from repeated friction.
The kiss, which seemed to be going in the direction Grace wanted, took a turn.
What was rough has become smooth. What used to be aggressive has become shy.
It was not the kiss of an adult drenched in lust. It was the kiss of the boy who had been hesitant to kiss her all evening, never finding the courage to kiss her.
Surprised, Grace opened her eyes, which she had kept closed all along to prevent her thoughts from being revealed. The hot, burning eyes were nowhere to be found. The light blue eyes were blurry as if they were immersed in a damp fog.
The mournful eyes said, ‘I really liked you…’
Don’t.
‘How could you do this to me?’
Don’t do this to me.
The moment she clenched her teeth, the sugar syrup-covered flesh crumbled to pieces.
The taste that coated her tongue was more bitter than anything else. Unlike the first kiss, where her face got hot with embarrassment, this time, her eyes got teary-eyed. As if the man noticed this, he stretched out his hand and stroked the corner of her eye with his thumb.
Beauty trap was truly a terrible thing… especially if the other person had deep-rooted feelings for a long time. It felt like the hard, heavy lump was trying to rise up and was blocking her throat.
She was out of breath. She couldn’t bear it anymore, so she turned her head away.
The hand that was stroking her face stopped. The hand that slid down her cheek fell to Grace’s lap. The wristwatch showed midnight.
“Daisy.”
“Don’t call me that.”
“Do you know what day today is?”
“You don’t give me a radio, a newspaper, or even a calendar, so how can I…”
“It’s a day when the two of us should hide in my bedroom and watch some stupid movie.”
Grace, who had been pretending not to be agitated, was dazed by the words that followed, as if she had been hit on the head.
“Watching a movie, we might end up doing something we shouldn’t have done at that age.”
The man burst out laughing pleasantly.
“If it were me, I would have done that.”
However, the corners of his mouth immediately drooped and he did not look happy at all.
“If that hadn’t happened…”
There was a reason why this man treated her strangely, calling her Daisy today.
…Today was the day his father died and the day his innocence died.
“Daisy…”
He was looking back on the last happy moment before he lost all of his pure heart. However, what was in front of Grace was not a boy intoxicated by the ecstasy of first love, though a man crushed by the weight of hatred and duty.
One day, after locking her in the torture chamber, this man asked, looking just as drunk and exhausted as he was now.
“Grace Riddle, have you ever imagined a life that wasn’t you?”
Since the terrible events at Abbington Beach, Grace has focused solely on the greater good and has never questioned her life.
He uttered something unexpected to her, who was shaking her head.
“I’m curious about life other than Leon Winston.”
To wonder about other lives. She thought it was ridiculous and that it was truly uncharacteristic of Leon Winston.
But now, without realizing it, she began to hope that he wasn’t Leon Winston.
“What are you thinking about?”
If that hadn’t happened, would he have been a better adult than he was now? Would they have been happy if that hadn’t happened? Either together or going their separate ways.
She had such a useless thought.
The man, who had been looking at her increasingly reddened eyes, leaned towards her.
“Daisy, answer me honestly.”
She could read the desperation that he needed to know the answer in his tone of voice. What on earth was he trying to ask? Nonetheless, it seemed like it was a difficult question and did not come up readily.
Her parted lips closed again, and he straightened his expression.
“What movie do you like?”
It was an extremely awkward smile. Anyone could tell that this was not the question he had originally intended.
She knew what he was trying to ask.
Did you really know nothing? In that vast place, among all the many villas, why did you hover before my eyes? Why did it have to be me?
No! I didn’t trick you!
The resentment she had been holding on to for a long time seemed like it was swelling up like a volcano awakening from a long sleep and was about to explode.
Grace bit her lip hard.
“Huh? What do you like? It’s very late, but shall we watch it together?”
The corners of his mouth forcefully pulled up and trembled slightly. The weakness of the man, who was always strong, eventually broke her down horribly.
“Leon.”
His eyes widened the moment she called his name, unable to resist the impulse.
“Yes, Daisy…”
The corners of his mouth, which had been tense, relaxed and his lips folded. The man must have thought that Grace was participating in this miserable play.
“I, I really didn’t know what the adults were going to do. I didn’t even know he was your father.”
The moment she claimed her innocence, her voice shaking unsightly, the passionate kiss stopped.
“If it was all a trick and an act, would I have suddenly run away, calling you a dirty pig?”
Her hands were shaking just like the moment she shouted those cruel words. She was so scared that it felt like she had returned to the girl she used to be, and tears welled up in her eyes.
“I said that because I was scared that my parents would scold me if they caught me playing with you.”
The more she tried to shake off the feeling of having sinned against this man by making belated excuses, the more the guilt of doing something that should not be done with an enemy weighed heavily on her heart. Just as when she left Abbington Beach on the early morning train, she was lost in confusion as to whether this was really the right thing to do.
“I’m really sorry. I’m sorry for saying such bad things to you, making you like me, and then cowardly running away, causing you trouble. I also really…”
But once the dam burst, there was no way to stop it.
“Liked you.”
In the end, she ended up making a confession that she shouldn’t have made.
“…Grace.”
After being silent for a while, he called her name in a deep voice.
A name that was rarely called.
“Ung?”
“Shut up and open your legs.”
His voice came out harshly through his clenched teeth. It was only after she wiped away the tears that had covered her eyes that she could finally see his eyes, which were as cold and sharp as frost when a cool shiver ran through her body and goosebumps rose.
“Ahk!”
The man forced her legs apart and slammed himself into a place that wasn’t even wet.
“Ha-uht, please, heuk, ca, calm down…”
However, those words seemed to provoke the man even more. The heavy body pressed down on the female body, which was extremely fragile compared to his and shocked violently. He looked like a person who wanted to crush her to death.
“The woman I liked was Daisy, who was pure and honest. It’s not Grace Riddle, who is all lies. Understood?”
“Heuk, I’m sorry….”
“If you were truly sorry for me, you shouldn’t have come here! At least you shouldn’t have brazenly sneaked under me!”
Grace couldn’t make any excuses and just shed tears.
“You know that? From that day on, I had a hard time holding back my anger whenever I saw that.”
His fingertip pointed to the candy apple thrown in the corner of the room.
“But at the same time, I keep thinking about it.”
Like you.
“D*mn…”
At the very least, you should never have appeared in front of me again.
He spat the words again and again, mixing them with profanity. His waist was shaking like a dog in heat, but his face was not at all that of someone crazy about pleasure.
“Please! Stop!”
While Grace was forced to experience torturous pleasure countless times, he was unable to climax even once.
Then, he finally collapsed to her.
While she was struggling to breathe while being crushed under the body that was like a lump of iron, the sound of his heavy breathing that was pouring into her ears gradually became softer. She turned her head, but she couldn’t see the face buried in the crook of her neck.
All strength went out of his body. When he fell asleep, he had no energy left to do what he wanted to do. Maybe it was just an excuse.
“Huuh…”
Grace sobbed quietly, holding the body as heavy as the man’s heart deep in her stomach.
‘It hurts.’
She couldn’t tell which was hurting more… her body or her mind.
It was a hot day.
“Ha…”
But it wasn’t just the weather that made Grace’s body drenched in sweat.
“What on earth do you know how to do?”
The back of her head became hot due to the cold scolding.
A breeze blew through the wide open window at the end of the dressing room and cooled her feverish neck. From time to time, the sound of people speaking could be faintly heard among the sounds of summer birds chirping outside the window.
It was the voice of employees preparing for an engagement ceremony to be held somewhere in the garden.
