The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me [Complete]

Chapter 46

In the quiet temple, an atmosphere of stillness prevailed; a silent space where, even if there were any signs of life, there was no sound.

Certainly, a pair of man and woman were present, but there wasn't a single word exchanged between them. The silence persisted, making it familiar until neither of them opened their mouths for a long time. Although the sunset wasn't near, as the afternoon progressed, the chirping of birds had vanished beneath the waning sun. As a result, the place had become utterly silent.

The incident that just occurred was a major debacle, so both Eleona and I had been silent, just looking in opposite directions since then. It felt like a vacuum, with no sound at all; only her warm presence was felt as our backs faced each other.

Suddenly, I felt heat rising to my face even though I wasn't looking directly at Eleona. Cautiously peeking over my shoulder, although I couldn't see her expression, her cheeks seemed unusually flushed. Probably, I looked the same as Eleona right now...

The reason for the current awkwardness wasn't complex. It was due to what happened just a moment ago, when Eleona asked me to hold her...

"Please hold me, pay for the wickedness that made the gods weep, and grant rest to my anxiety-filled heart..."

At that time, Eleona, who knew I had almost died, pleaded with tears in her eyes. Her moist eyes and the face that showed genuine concern and longing made me feel unfamiliar and strange emotions. The sensation was irresistible, and seeing her call my name with a soft voice made me feel love.

Without a second thought, I gently stroked her cheek and kissed her.

"What...?"

As our lips lightly parted, Eleona, with a surprised voice, widened her eyes and exclaimed, "What the...?!" She then screamed softly. She seemed to want to say something but was repeatedly opening and closing her mouth without speaking. Seeing her cute reaction made the unfamiliar emotion rise even more.

"Harold...?" She asked, her voice showing a mixture of surprise and joy.

"Would it be okay if I dared to satisfy your wishes, my goddess?" I said, attempting to set a sweet tone.

Hearing my words, Eleona, still with wide eyes, soon realized the situation and responded with a joyful smile, "You're being rash, my knight."

"I've always wanted only you," she continued, wiping away her tears.

"I love you... My knight, I'm so happy to reaffirm our hearts again!"

She caressed my hair with a brighter voice and a smile filled with joy. "I, too, long for you."

Our lips met again, this time deeper and sweeter, an ecstasy I had never experienced before.

"Phew..."

When our lips finally separated, a thin thread of saliva connected them. The sensation of her rough breath touching my neck tickled me, and I tightly embraced Eleona's delicate body.

"I'm happy..."

Before I completely lost my reason, I heard Eleona's voice filled with emotion.

"Me too..."

Whispering in her ear in response to her words, my inner sense of reason ceased to exist.

"You are my eternal and only knight."

With Eleona's confident voice as the last thing I heard, our shadows merged into one for a long time. Returning to the present moment, the situation I just described was the reason for the awkward atmosphere between Eleona and me.
