His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband?

Chapter 26: I am not tempting you

It's been a few days. They are already on their way to the capital. Kyuri spends most of her time inside the carriage that the prince arranged for her. She barely talks to anyone except General Yu. At night, they halt at the inn. At midnight, she tries to sneak into her aunt's room to talk. But, she is caught by Li Jun.

He drags her back to her room despite her protest. He closes the door and crosses his arms. They stare at each other quietly until she can no longer hold it.

"Oi, Li Jun!" She looks like a little ball of anger in front of him. "Even if we are getting married, you can't molest me at night. It's wrong to touch anyone without consent. If you touch me without my permission after we get married, I will kill you."

He smiles mildly. "Does that mean that I can molest you before we get married?"

"No." She crosses her arms in front of her like a shield. "You shouldn't molest anyone. It is wrong."

"It is also wrong to sneak into someone else's room at midnight when you are engaged." The smile doesn't leave his lips. "You can sneak into mine. I won't stop you."

She gasps. "This is the real you."

"Yes." He climbs the bed. "I am tired. Let's sleep."

"Go to your room." She tries to kick him, but he grasps her foot. "Let go!"

He let go of it. He chuckles to see her looking relieved. He locks her into his arms. "Sleep."

"Let me go." Kyuri tries to break his hold, but she doesn't have 1% of his physical strength. He holds her tighter. "We can't do this before marriage."

"I am not doing anything." He looks into her eyes. "If you keep moving, you will tempt me more. Then, nothing can stop me from molesting you."

She freezes in his arms. "I am not tempting you."

"Be good and sleep." He kisses her nose. "If you don't close your eyes, next kiss will be on your lips."

She closes her eyes in the next instant. He let out a low laugh and snuggles closer to her. He can feel her erratic breath and rising heartbeat. He sighs when he realizes that he has to wait until she is ready.

How could I not feel anything when a hot man is sleeping next to me?

He has fallen asleep easily. His breath is tickling my neck. He is holding me like a pillow. There is not even half cm of separation between us. I am still a woman. How can I sleep like this? I can't.

He isn't Kang Si An who will kill me. He is Li Jun. Then, can I kiss him a bit? He is sort of cute. I never had a real boyfriend before. It's hard to resist. I also have feelings.

One peck won't hurt, right? He also stole a kiss when I was asleep. Let's say that I am taking back what I owe.

I slowly lift my chin. I don't want to wake him up. I move my face closer gradually. My heart is going haywire. His sleeping face looks beautiful. This is my chance. A jolt of electricity runs through my body when my lips touch his. I am not satisfied with just a peck. I lick his lower lip. Again. I close my eyes and start kissing him. I get a bit bolder and try to pry open his lips with my tongue. His lips part away. I slide my tongue in and explore his mouth.

And then... His tongue finds mine. Startled, I pull back my tongue and close my mouth. His eyes are open. I am caught. Shit.

"You did it to me." Her cheeks are beet red. "So, I took back what you owe me with interest."

Her robes are loosened. She sounds flustered and angry at the same time. She is angry at him because he caught him. He should have pretended to be asleep longer.

He shifts closer to her face. "Then, if I do it again, you will take back what you owe with interest again?"

He didn't think that her face could become redder. She clears her throat. "Look, if you do it again, I will chop off your lips."

"Will you chop my lips with your lips?" He asks her teasingly.

"Speak logically." She pauses for a moment. "Lips will be chopped by a knife."

"I don't mind if you do that." He finds her lips and kisses her. She tries to push him away. He kisses her harder. In a while, she stops struggling. He realizes that she is sweating profusely and breathing hard. He takes a glance at her. "What's wrong?"

"It's finally happening." She shows him a toothy smile. "I am going back home."

He widens his eyes when he sees her disappearing. He tries to grasp her tighter. He hears her soft chuckle and a victorious look in her eyes before there is nothing left of her.
