Leveling Up Wives In The Apocalypse

Chapter 96 l wish we could just enjoy eachother in peace



“Are you for real right now?” Nadia asked as she pushed herself off Mathew’s chest to look him directly in the eyes. “Are you seriously asking that?”

There was no anger in her voice nor any disappointment or negative feelings. She was simply surprised to the end of her wits, something signified by how wide her eyes opened up as she stared at Mathew’s face.

“I never really cared about being the one to call the shots,” Mathew admitted. He then shook his head and bit his lips. “The only reason why I was so pushy before was that I had the knowledge that others didn’t.”

‘And now it’s the time for her to get disillusioned with me,’ Mathew thought grimly. ‘But isn’t it better to be honest? I don’t want to build anything on a lie…’ he thought, fighting with his own thoughts as he analyzed whether to push through with the topic or to change it.

“To be perfectly honest, I found it pretty weird when you suddenly took so much initiative,” Nadia admitted as she moved her body back to the position she was in before. She laid her head down on Mathew’s chest only to grab one of his hands and put it on her waist. “It’s not like I didn’t like it. I was just surprised,” she added, squirming to stop Mathew from taking her words in the wrong way.

‘So you did like it when I took the lead, huh?’ Mathew thought while playing it off by putting a small smile on his face.

“Going back to the topic, once this fortress is properly standing, I wouldn’t really mind giving Daniel the right to call the shots,” Mathew repeated his statement from before after expanding on it a little.

“Is there any particular reason behind it?” Nadia asked.

“Yeah,” the young man replied while nodding his head. “I don’t really enjoy all the mental burden that taking responsibility for everyone’s lives places on my shoulders,” he admitted.

Mathew then shook his body a little, only to wrap his hands around the girl’s waist, pulling her even closer into an embrace.

“When it comes to you, I’m ready to do whatever it takes to help you out. When it comes to the other girls in our group, I’m willing to put forth an effort to help them,” Mathew explained his stance, only to then turn silent rather than finish the topic.

“And when it comes to others?” Nadia leaned her head to the side despite having a serious expression all over her face. “When it comes to the others, what are you willing to do?” she asked while playfully moving her forefinger on top of Mathew’s chest.

“To be frank, I don’t give two shits about them personally,” Mathew revealed, only to shrug his shoulders as he averted his eyes up. “Sure, they could be useful for us as humans can do wonders when they work together…”

Once again, Mathew took a short break. This time, however, he didn’t do it for the sake of building the tension but rather to think over what he should say next.

“The others could be of great help for us. That’s the only reason why I even bothered to save them,” Mathew explained, only to then lower his eyes and press his head against Nadia’s shoulder. “And I simply did what the tiny part of humanity that’s left in me desired.”

Saving others was a human’s natural instinct. A drive developed in the times when decreasing number of tribe members could have devastating results.

‘I can remember a certain study that pointed out selflessness and helpfulness as an evolutionary trait of our species,’ he thought while images of computer simulations of blobs placed in different scenarios appeared before his eyes.

“I don’t find anything wrong with that,” Nadia said in a calm voice. She then raised her hand and slowly patted Mathew’s head. “And I’m extremely happy that I’m at the top of your list of priorities,” she stated.

Nadia then moved around on Mathew’s up a little bit, only to end up straddling him like a horse. She then moved her hands up, locking them behind her husband’s neck.

“What?” Mathew asked when the girl did nothing but simply stare right into his eyes despite taking a pretty risque position.

Even sitting like that was something normal for couples. Ultimately, Mathew was official with the girl for only a few hours. And even the extremely nice memories of what they did in the shower rooms weren’t enough to suddenly cull Mathew’s libido down.

“Nothing important,” Nadia replied with a smile as she leaned forward and placed a gentle kiss on top of Mathew’s forehead. “I just wanted to look at your face for a moment,” she added, leaning forward again and placing a kiss on the very tip of Mathew’s nose.

“That was a sudden change,” Mathew pointed out, only for his lips to curve upwards into a smile.

Nadia lowered her head again, clearly going for another kiss. But this time, Mathew was prepared.

Instead of letting the girl do whatever she wanted, he brought one of his hands to her chin before pushing his lips to her mouth.

“Mhmm…” the girl made a small noise when their lips connected. Yet, rather than pushing herself away, she tightened the lock formed by her arms as she immersed herself in the kiss.

“Hmph?” the girl squirmed on his lap when the young man pushed his tongue out, slipping it between the girl’s lips. Yet, rather than pulling away, Nadia quickly accepted the new form of the kiss, rubbing her own tongue against Mathew’s as their kiss continued.

“Haaa…” Mathew released a small sigh when their lips finally parted. “Damn it all!” he then shouted, only to slam his fist into the ground in a sudden bout of frustration.

“What’s wrong?!” Nadia reacted without any hesitation, almost jumping up from Mathew’s lap to stand guard against anything and anyone that dared to make Mathew have a reaction like that.

“I’m just extremely salty, don’t worry about it,” Mathew brushed the topic off only to wrap his hands around the girl’s back and pull her into yet another hug. “I just wish we could get this fortress over with so that we could enjoy each other in peace.”
