At the End of the Hidden Greenery - Chapter 230

She thought it was really okay. Maybe it truly was. But just like Solmih said, it wasn’t something she could simply bury and move on from.

“…I want to talk about it a little, too.”

“That makes me very happy.”

Solmih rubbed their foreheads together, almost like a cat showing affection, urging her to speak quickly. This seemed to be his way of coaxing.

He waited cutely for Jiwoo’s answer, but she wasn’t entirely comfortable with the situation.

“Still, isn’t this kind of thing better said in a different situation?”

Jiwoo was still tightly bound by the plants. Her arms tied behind her back, her body restricted.

“Oh, I’m sorry. Then I’ll start with the treatment first.”

“Yes…”

“This time, a little more.”

Solmih’s hand brushed her nape, gently massaging her tender skin as if checking her pulse, slowly tracing deeper inside.

“I’m going to touch a deeper spot…”

“Uht. Okay.”

Beyond the fact she was tied up, there was an inexplicable tension in the air. Her emotions had just surged into anger, and her racing heartbeat seemed to linger.

“Can you bear it?”

His hands were larger than they looked. Even though they’d been wandering the forest for days, his appearance was neat and well-kept, nails trimmed cleanly. As his hands explored her tightly bound body, he slowly loosened the collar of her clothing.

“This might be a bit uncomfortable.”

“…What?”

“It’s part of the treatment. If you don’t like it, just say so.”

Jiwoo blushed but nodded.

With his forehead still pressed to hers, Solmih kissed her cheek with a soft sound. His lips touched her right cheek, making both her cheeks flush as if kissed on both sides.

“Ugh…”

Then, as if to resume the kiss he’d paused earlier, Solmih gently shifted, grabbing Jiwoo’s lower lip in his mouth.

His breath was sweet enough to make her want to respond, but Jiwoo shook her head.

“No… I feel like I’ll bite you again.”

“That’s a shame.”

When she refused to mix tongues, he just licked around her lips in disappointment.

His saliva warmed her lips slowly, along with the sweet taste she’d felt from his tongue moments ago. The soft yet sticky and explicit sensation.

Apparently, she wasn’t the only one disappointed, as Solmih let out a quiet sigh.

Then he pleaded in a slightly husky voice.

“Hmm. Isn’t there another way?”

“That’s… aht…”

The scent of roses from his breath grew stronger. Maybe because his natural bodily scent and fluids were intense, his excitement made her head spin like she’d been soaked in wine.

“If it’s because your senses are acting up…”

“Ung? Uht…”

His hand slipped further beneath her loosened clothing. Passing over the vines wrapped around her waist, rubbing her hips, and lower into the moist area between her legs.

“If I focus your attention elsewhere…”

“Aht…!”

Her body flared with heat, yet his touch felt cooler than her skin’s warmth.

His hand slid between her thighs.

Already soaked with her own liquid, his fingers teased the flesh, tapping and pressing. Waiting for a heated breath to escape her lips, Solmih gently rubbed her cl*toris, sliding a finger deeper inside. His violet eyes watched Jiwoo’s every reaction.

“Ung, haa…”

“Ah.”

Then Solmih smiled brightly as if realizing something.

“You respond better here. I think this will work.”

“What? Uht, what is…”

Before she could ask what would work, Jiwoo’s words choked.

She’d said she wouldn’t kiss because he might bite her, but without care, Solmih kissed her again.

The intoxicating scent and sensation spread through her mouth, along with growing anxiety. Enchanted by the kiss, she tightened her jaw, almost biting down on the tongue entering her mouth.

But just as she was about to do so.

“…!”

Solmih’s hand suddenly pressed harshly between her legs, scraping her inner walls.

“Uht…!”

Jiwoo’s body jerked, and the tension in her jaw melted away. As her inside clenched against Solmih’s finger, a thrilling pleasure shot through her body. For a moment, her vision grew blurry.

When her sight returned, Solmih’s eyes were fixed on her intensely.

Thankfully, she didn’t bite him this time, but feeling her senses controlled by him sent chills all over her.

Was Solmih always this blatant and sticky with kisses?

Usually, he’d brush a kiss lightly on her eyelids or nose before moving on, but never before had he gone straight for lips and tongue so deeply.

His tongue, soaked in sweet saliva, intertwined deeply. As his flesh brushed the inside of her cheek, Jiwoo felt her body twitch again as if she wanted to bite him.

“Uht!”

Then his fingers withdrew from inside her and slid along her slick cl*toris.

Her thighs were so drenched it looked like liquid might drip off, and Solmih’s fingers were soaked in her liquid.

Unlike his usual manner, his touch between her legs was rough and fast, flicking as if shaking off something, quite crude.

“Uhp, hng, uuhng…”

With one hand, Solmih pulled Jiwoo’s nape, twisting her head at will. He kissed her roughly and tilted the angles as he pleased.

Each time their lips parted, Solmih’s heavy breathing echoed through the forest.
