305 Traced the curves [Bonus chapter]
“Whenever Father meets you, he asks you questions. He might have asked again if you found out why I killed my mother,” Lóng Wei stated, and again tilted his head.
“And His Highness never tells me,” Li Hua said as she poured water on his left arm. “I will wait for His Highness to answer me,” she asserted. She recalled how the King said that Concubine Jun was a nice lady. But Lóng Wei’s statement was different from his father’s.
She found he had turned silent once again. She realized that she should not speak about Lóng Wei’s mother anymore.
“His Highness told me that he would take me on a horse to a secret place,” Li Hua quickly changed the topic of their conversation.
“Forgive me. Let’s go tomorrow,” Lóng Wei said, “after work.”
Li Hua smiled and hummed at him. “I will bring lunch for His Highness in the Governor’s office,” she told him with a wide smile.
“I don’t have to go to the office all the time. I can work from the palace,” Lóng Wei told her.
“Ohh.” Li Hua thought that Lóng Wei would go daily to the bureaucratic office and she would take a lunch box for him.
“I will go tomorrow to find out with whom I will be working. I still do not know about many officials in the capital,” Lóng Wei affirmed. While giving him a bath, Li Hua keenly listened to him.
.....
Lóng Wei was thinking of telling Li Hua why he killed her mother and turned to face her. Li Hua was startled by his sudden act and asked him if he needed anything. She placed the mug on the platform floor and looked at his chest.
Her cheeks turned red to see his naked upper body, and her eyes stopped at the top of the trousers. She blinked a few times and slapped her cheeks when Lóng Wei asked her why she did that.
“Nothing,” she replied instantly, while shaking her head.
For a brief moment, Lóng Wei felt the presence of someone outside the bathhouse as he saw a silhouette of someone on the door. He grabbed Li Hua’s hand and pulled her down into the bathtub. She could not balance herself and fell in the forward direction.
Lóng Wei’s feet also staggered, and he fell backward while he caught her with both arms. However, he balanced himself soon and his one hand rested on her waist while attempting to save her from falling down.
The water splashed and the droplets landed on Li Hua’s face, who closed her eyes. Her clothes were drenched to her waist, and she lifted her head to look at Lóng Wei.
“Why did His Highness pull me into the bathtub?” She got angry and hit his bare arm. She looked at her clothes and found they were completely wet. It annoyed her and she turned to get out of the bathtub when Lóng Wei pulled her back.
Her back touched the front of his body and her breath hitched.
“Your Highness,” she muttered, and felt his cheek touch hers. She closed her eyes and her heart hammered against her chest. His hands were securely wrapped around her and he made her stand in her place, not letting her move even an inch.
Lóng Wei looked towards the door and decided not to talk about his mother with Li Hua because the person outside might hear. Instead, he decided to get affectionate to Li Hua since she was so close to him.
He nuzzled her cheek and slowly moved to her neck to nuzzle at it. Li Hua held his hands and then turned to face him. She rapidly blinked her eyes for a second when Lóng Wei traced her cheek with his thumb and made circles over it. His right hand remained on her waist as he drew her close.
She closed her eyes, ready for the kiss. But she opened them when Lóng Wei kissed the middle of her forehead. He held her chin and peered deeply into her eyes.
“Don’t trust anyone around you except a few. I may sometimes be away from you, so be careful,” Lóng Wei said.
“I understand,” Li Hua told him. “Don’t be scared for my safety. I am training myself to get stronger. Liu Jin Yu will help me and I have to help in her training,” she said with a smile.
“You two became close sooner than I expected,” Lóng Wei stated.
“Yes.” Li Hua smiled and paused when she felt the sudden change in the atmosphere.
“Shall we leave?” She asked as she wiped her cheeks with the pad of her fingers. Lóng Wei shook his head and ducked his head to kiss her neck. He left feathery kisses there and gradually moved to her jaw, then cheek.
His breath fanned on her lips, and their noses touched. He brushed her lips on hers for a brief second, making her shudder in pleasure. Her eyelids flickered and she lifted her hand to trace to rest on his chest. She moved her hand as her fingers caressed his naked chest.
He angled her face, and claimed her lips. He didn’t want to hold back anymore. They kissed hungrily, as if their lives depended on it. Every inch of her body dissolved into it. She couldn’t realize when they reached the side of the bathtun, when Lóng Wei settled on one of the steps, and when she was on his thighs. Everything happened so fast while she was only focused on that never-ending kiss.
She heard his groan when she moved closer to him, and they parted their lips only when their lungs ran out of oxygen. They panted while looking at each other.
He moved his hand up and untied the knot of her dress. He pulled out the thin layer of the robe. Their bodies were still submerged in the water. His hand traced the curves of her body. She pulled him by his nape to kiss him again, and seeing her initiation, he smiled.
