Elysia watched as Hadeon’s massive frame, which seemed to weigh heavily on her despite not touching her at all, slowly moved away and plopped down beside her.

Hadeon, raising an arm to cover his eyes, spoke quietly.

“One thing is certain.”

Amid her heavy breathing, Elysia felt his words clearly cut through her mind.

“Every time I touch your skin, I feel a chilling pleasure and an insane urge to bite you.”

In the darkness, Elysia could feel his gaze upon her.

His eyes shone brightly even at night, like lights.

Suddenly, as if he possessed the endurance of a monster, he sprang up and wrapped her body in the sheets. Elysia, who was quickly bound by him, looked up at the beast that had attacked her body once again, feeling intense tremors.

“Do you understand? Every time I touch your body, I want to devour you, Elysia.”

In a tone more beastly than ever, Hadeon calmly confessed to his lover with whom he had just passionately entwined his body.

It was hard to distinguish whether his eyes were filled with a murderous intent towards prey or a sexual desire for a woman. Elysia’s pupils, caught by that gaze, trembled in shock.

“No matter how much I have you, this hunger doesn’t subside.”

His bare hand grasped Elysia’s cheek once again. It was the moment the night began anew.

***

Elysia woke up in pain.

It felt like someone had bitten her between her legs. When she opened her eyes, the ceiling of a vast bedroom came into view.

It’s suffocating. And… hot.

The first thing she felt was the suffocating pressure on her whole body. Elysia soon found the reason. From head to toe, her body was wrapped in thin sheets.

What… what is this?

Fortunately, there was a tiny gap around her lips and nose that prevented her from suffocating in her sleep, but it was obvious who would do such a thing.

Elysia immediately recognized the presence of the man who was holding her tightly in the sheets as if binding her.

Hadeon Lark.

It was the same relentless man who had held her until dawn and finally let her go.

This… this man really…

The man was sleeping comfortably with his eyes closed, holding her. As soon as she recognized him up close, Elysia felt all her hairs stand on end and desperately wriggled to escape from his broad chest.

But her opponent was a lion beastman. No matter how much Elysia struggled within the sheets, Hadeon’s heavy arm did not budge. Given the weight difference and her limbs being tied in the sheets, it was inevitable. She even tried crawling down like a caterpillar, but the sleeping man’s senses were so sharp that he tightened his grip on the sheet whenever she tried to escape. It seemed impossible to get out quietly.
Elysia surrendered. There was no way but to wait until this man woke up.

Suddenly, the memories of last night flashed through her mind.

“I want to devour you, Elysia.”

At the thought of those words, Elysia’s entire body broke out in goosebumps again.
