Chapter 223: Kiss to The Heart

Arabella felt her back pressed against the door of Cassius’s room as his lips peppered her neck with kisses.

Since their confession, the two had returned to his chamber- away from any eyes to see. Once they had entered his room, Cassius had pressed his lips over and over again to her mouth, his tongue then sneakily peeked out from her lips, licking her lower lips before taking a small nibble that made her melt.

She opened her teary eyes, watching as Cassius devotedly held her waist, his fingers treading around her back as he gently pulled her laces to undo the knots of her dress.

Butterflies spread inside her stomach and Arabella found her own feet fiddling together as she tried to ease up the knots and stimulation that builds up at the depth of her stomach, making her nervous and giddy at the same time.

Kisses...

Arabella didn’t know what was good in kissing someone else.

She had seen happy couple kissing as they part away and upon seeing it, she questioned why could kiss become such an intimate gesture between to loving souls.

But only now did she understood why.

Kisses doesn’t only feel sensual, it didn’t only make her feel hot and bothered. It soothed her as well, it soothed her soul like a deep caress on her spine that eased up her tensed body.

Cassius’s hot wet tongue felt coarse as it snuck inside her mouth, tracing the roof of her mouth that made her tickle.

"You should open your mouth," he groaned beside her ears and her whole body shuddered with how much stimulation she felt from just hearing his deep voice echoing straight to her spine. "Ah," he held her chin, teaching her to open her mouth.

Though embarrassed, Arabella did as she was asked. She opened her mouth into a round shape, and could see as Cassius’s sexy adam apples bobbed upon seeing her open mouth as though a flicker of thought passed into his head, one that made him thirst for more.

Before she could close her mouth, Cassius turned to the side, his mouth clasped to hers and slowly he sucks her tongue, savouring how she tastes in a slow and deliberately frustrating moves which made her knees weak the longer their kiss drags on.

Tears welled up in her eyes subconsciously and her body that was pressed closer to his felt as if it had turned as hot as a heated stove.

By the time Cassius had his fill, his tongue had licked over hers and he pulled away, wiping the traces of droll that settled on the corner of her lips. He made sure to hold her tight as the moment he left her lips, Arabella’s body weakened, almost falling on her knees.

Her entire cheeks had turned bright pink. Her green eyes had teared up, turn like a glass marble while the rim of her eyes had reddened.

"It’s worrying how easily you melt from just a kiss," as he said so, Cassius pulled her upward, circling her arms around his shoulders. "Did it feel that great birdie?"

She felt a shiver that made her skin tremble and with an annoyed glare, she stared at him, "Stop saying everything so... so..."

"So?" He prodded, grinning.

Arabella puffed her cheeks, not knowing that Cassius would always be a teasing little brat no matter what relationship they had grown to have. Whether it was as friend or lover, Cassius would always have that annoyingly handsome grin on his lips as he teased her.

"So lewdly!" She yelped when her body floated from the ground as Cassius had swept her off her feet by carrying her on his arms, bringing her straight to the fluffy bed across the door.

"Mhm, lewd hm?" Cassius put his knee on the bed, causing it to creak and seeing his broad body in front of her face as she fell on the bed make her entire soul yell in shock. She didn’t know what she felt as it feels as if she had crossed something very bad but something she believes she won’t regret either.

He leaned forward and upon seeing her hands clasped in front of her chest slightly trembling, he kissed his forehead, coaxing her gently as he didn’t want this night to be a night where she would look back bitterly.

"What should I do?" Cassius hummed and his frown appeared so concerned that made Arabella to look at him confused.

She looked at herself and then back at him, "What’s wrong? Did I do something I shouldn’t?"

"Yes you did," he whispered, "You riled me up so innocently and what can I do now but to eat you?"

Her cheeks turned even brighter in red as she hit his head playfully, "Silly! You surprised me! I thought I had done something I shouldn’t."

"But you did, you riled me up," Cassius chuckled as he pulled her hand and kissed her knuckles. "Besides why are you so worried that you would do something you shouldn’t? Think about it... you hit a crown prince, swears at him, and even cursed at him. Since when had you cared about your image? Especially in front of me," he whispered.

"W- Well..." now that he said so, she thought about all the things she had done so bravely to a crown prince. Thankfully it was Cassius who had chosen her as if it was any other crown prince she would have been beheaded so early when she entered the castle... "It’s my first time." She then furrowed her eyebrows at him, "But it’s not yours right?"

"Speaking about the past on top of the bed is not such a good manner, my dearest," Cassius schooled her and as she thought he was going to avoid his words, his eyes softened.

"It isn’t my first time indeed but you won’t be pleased hearing what I have done in the past."

Arabella could see something that was the opposite of proudness. She knew how men would boast about their experience but Cassius seemed as if he rather not talk about it.

"I was only fifteen when an older woman walked into my room." His voice was low, detached, as if recounting a tale that belonged to someone else. "Shall we talk about the maids, then? The ones who saw a neglected crown prince abandoned by his father, orphaned by his mother and decided he was theirs to play with. To the outside world, maybe it was scandalous, even titillating. A prince seduced. A boy turned man. But tell me..." His gaze darkened. "What kind of man is truly happy being used? It’s not as if I like the idea of sex either."

Arabella’s eyes quickly narrowed as a sense of anger bubbled in her as she thought about how loss Cassius must have been.

Being a crown prince doesn’t mean he had avoided all sort of suffering that other youth of his age had went through either.

"See?" Cassius sighed, rolling his eyes, "It kills the mood talking about that, doesn’t it?"

Arabella reached out her hands after seeing his face and pulled him close. Her lips still felt sore from the long minutes of kissing they did that felt more than half an hour. But now that she knew kisses doesn’t only feel good but also soothing, she pressed her lips to him, kisses him again as if to coax his heart and comforted him.

"Then that means this is your first time with someone you truly chose?" She smiled, "Just like me?"
