Chapter 35
"Don't do this..."
It felt as if a ferocious beast was dripping saliva, baring its growling fangs right in front of my nose.
"No, if you want to embark on such an adventure, at least leave me some proof."
A coarse breath traveled through the void, touching my skin, and in my mind, it overlaid a situation where I was genuinely being driven into a corner by a wild creature.
Knowing vaguely the meaning behind her asking for proof, if I can't resolve this situation now, my unbreakable pride will surely break...
"Please calm down... this isn’t right..."
I tried to plead with the reason that might still exist in Erina, but all that returned was a captivating kiss.
"No, this is right. If we leave you here, my fate will undoubtedly flow in an unfavorable direction... I will be bound to the family as a noble and will have to send you away forever."
Her soft, warm lips stole mine, and only after my breath was forcefully taken by the hot heat could I finally inhale some fresh air.
