164. This is not what I intended.
164. This is not what I intended.
"───?!!"
Panic.
The first emotion Minerva felt.
"Mmph...wait...just....mm, chuup...!"
Next, an anger for which she could find no reason.
It was clearly a situation she had longed for all this time. A scenario she would welcome with open arms if it ever came.
'Why... why, why...!'
Why did it have to be now?
Why wouldn't he answer her questions?
Whenever there was even the slightest gap for her mouth to open, he pushed his tongue in and sealed it shut with his lips.
Anger.
Rage.
Irritation. And frustration.
"───Chuup..."
But what finally arrived was compromise, depression, and acceptance.
Chrono did not answer. He was simply trying to gloss over it with a momentary urge.
He was telling her, who wanted a precise answer, that she didn't need to know.
In a sense, it was like betrayal.
But──it wasn't something she couldn't understand either.
'Because it's Chrono....'
Because he was a person who always tried to bear things alone.
Because all the things she was trying to know were things that, if she did know, might cause her pain.
That was why he blocked her mouth. Sealed her lips with his, ransacked her head with his tongue.
Telling her not to think.
Pleading with her to focus on this moment.
And simply, just like that.
"Chup....tseureup.....haah...."
Empty your head.
Bad things. Hard things. Erase all of it from your head.
Just engrave nothing but the single name 'Chrono' into your mind.
Dad too.
The Academy too.
The Athena Guild too.
Minerva, even my own existence.
Erase it all.
Just erase it and accept.
Accept only the being right before your eyes.
"Eut──chureup...♡"
The heat that gradually flared up.
The sensation of the space between her legs growing warm and her heart pounding heavily.
She was feeling it. Heating up. Her head was filling with brain drugs and her reason was clouding over.
Only the one person in front of her entered her eyes.
The heavy thoughts that had pressed down on her heart vanished, and she entrusted her soul to the fleeting heat.
"....Paha.."
A transparent thread connected between mouth and mouth.
Chrono then kissed down below her neck while his other hand began removing her clothes.
"Nn.....uh....haaah...."
She stretched out both arms to stop Chrono.
An instinctive sense of resistance that any woman naturally possesses.
But in truth, more than that, her heart wanted to leave it to Chrono, so her clumsily outstretched hands ended up looking more like she was embracing him.
─Jjigeogeok....
"───Nn, eut...!"
Before she knew it, a touch had reached between her legs.
His index and middle fingers pressed together and rubbed her clit, and the tips of his bent fingers gently tickled her vaginal opening.
The heat flared. She even had a delusion as if her whole body was turning into a hot air balloon and rising into the sky.
─Jjeubeup....jjeup...
─Jjibeuk jjibeuk
"Haaah....uh....if you torment my chest....and clit together....!"
With his right hand, her pussy, with his left hand, her breasts.
With his remaining lips, he took her other nipple into his mouth, continuing to stimulate her—Chrono.
'This is....too different from last time──?!'
Before she could even stop Chrono, his hand assaulted Minerva even faster.
─Jjeubeuk jjeubeuk jjeubeuk jjeubeuk
"Waiiit...wait, a....ah....uh-eut....?!!"
It was fast.
And rough.
The usual Chrono wasn't like this.
Though 'usual' was an experience of at most one or two times──nevertheless, Minerva could say this.
"Eung──eu-eu-eut....! Heup! Heu, euh....uh-uh-uh.....!!"
He was impatient. And he had no composure.
Even as her love fluids dripped between her pussy and her hips trembled in the afterglow of climax, Minerva kept worrying about Chrono.
"Chrono.... are you perhaps angry...?"
"..........."
Could it be.
No way, a one-in-a-million chance but...
"Did you get angry... because I said that...?"
"....I'm not angry."
"If it's anger, I'll apologize. If it's because... I should have trusted you, Chrono, but didn't and doubted you instead──"
"─Minerva."
Seeing Minerva naturally try to apologize by bringing her hands together.
Chrono grabbed Minerva's hands, stopped her, and said.
"What I'm doing right now.... isn't sex."
"Excuse me?"
What he was doing wasn't sex.
What on earth was he talking about when he had already taken his pants off and was preparing to thrust it in?
As Minerva grew flustered, Chrono spoke while spreading the love fluids flowing from her pussy onto his cock.
"Rape. Yeah.... what I'm doing to you right now is rape."
"What do you──eut, heu-eup....?!!"
─Jeubeubeubeuk!
A hot pillar of fire entered her body.
The sensation of her insides being crushed and her flesh being split.
If it were the usual him, if it were Chrono, he would give her time to get used to his cock...
─Jeubeok! Jeubeok! Jeubeok! Jeubeok!
"Euk?! Euk, eut. Aahk....!!"
Rough. Painful.
No matter how wet her pussy was, if he suddenly pounded his cock in, it could only hurt.
'Why....'
Tears welled up.
A voice she couldn't suppress began to trickle out of her throat.
─Paang! Paang! Paang! Paang!
"Chrono.... why.... why... eut, ah-euk...!!"
A slight, pleasant pleasure.
But a tearing pain in her body that surpassed it.
Sorrow. Tears. Incomprehensibility. Fear. A little anger and endless despair.
"Heup..... heu-eup, eut.... euk....!"
Eventually tears fell from Minerva.
Once they started flowing, the tears wouldn't stop.
Tears wetting the side of her face, and the pillow below her cheek.
'Why.... why...!'
Her head was dizzy.
A feeling like hot steam was filling her head, and something colder than the perpetual snow of the Himalayas was stabbing her heart.
It was so hot. And so cold.
She even began to doubt if the person in her arms right now was truly the 'Chrono' she loved.
"Please.... stop...."
At last, Minerva spoke.
"Please... stop it now...!"
She implored. She begged.
"If we go further than this, I'm really.... really......"
Could she ever come to hate Chrono?
"............."
No.
There was no way.
Probably, this feeling would continue forever.
In the first place, it was a regret far too late to go back now.
It had been such a suffocating prison, but nevertheless, it had been a nest.
A nest where she could live, where she could lay her body down.
But now that she had burned that nest and entrusted her body solely to Chrono──could she really commit the act of abandoning Chrono now?
'....I see.'
Minerva realized.
It wasn't that she understood the immediate situation or Chrono's sudden behavior──but at least, she had more than enough understanding about the situation she herself was in.
There was no place to return to.
No, the only place left to return to was just one.
Chrono's embrace.
Chrono's side.
A place she wanted to be even if it meant debasing herself as a pet.
She wasn't sure anymore now, but nevertheless, it was a place she couldn't leave.
It was possible for Chrono to abandon it,
but at the very least, it was impossible for her to abandon it.
"............"
Without a word, Minerva embraced Chrono with both arms.
"Eut....aahh....♡"
Once she accepted without rejection, Chrono's cock no longer felt painful.
Even though he was rough and impatient, even though he mercilessly pounded her pussy, nothing hurt.
Only the pleasant pleasure thickly wetted her pussy.
─Byureureureuk....!
"Haaaaa.....♡"
Even when Chrono finally ejaculated with all his might, she felt not a shred of disgust.
Rather, it felt good. She was happy to be bound by this person, to be demanded by him.
She simply decided to feel that way.
Minerva let out a deep sigh and closed her eyes.
'Inside me... Chrono's seed is....'
It feels good. It probably feels good. It has to feel good.
Therefore, it feels good. Really, incredibly good so...
"....This isn't how it's supposed to be...?"
"..........."
...She saw Chrono's face.
A very flustered, unusual expression.
"You... why aren't you getting mad at me...?"
"...Why would I get mad at you, Chrono?"
"???"
Stockholm syndrome?
The words Chrono blurted out, one after another in his bewilderment.
Seeing Chrono so at a loss looked quite cute, so Minerva silently embraced him.
"I... will never get angry at Chrono, or anything like that."
"No, but......"
"Even if Chrono gets angry at me, I will absolutely never get angry."
".....Damn it."
Is this the power of Bond Rank MAX....!
Chrono sighed deeply. At the same time, Minerva could guess from his appearance.
'So he wasn't angry....'
He wasn't angry, nor did he actually intend to rape her.
If you asked her, that was the case. If he really meant to rape her, there was no need for foreplay or kisses.
He could just do as his lust dictated, and thrust in as his lust dictated, and that would be it.
Despite that, the reason he gave her foreplay and made her climax once was──so that she wouldn't get hurt, just in case.
"Come to think of it...."
Chrono's words from earlier.
It was something he did deliberately to make her angry.
Meaning, Chrono expected her to get angry.
Why? Why? What good would there be in her getting angry?
If it was something that would happen because she got angry──
"───Ah."
She realized it. Minerva realized it.
The emotions from just before. The whole sequence of flows.
And in addition, Chrono's question about 'why aren't you getting mad.'
A conclusion she could draw from this was....
"Did you want... me to vent my anger on you, Chrono?"
"....What, whatever could that be."
Only at the very end did Chrono speak.
"Sorry...."
"........."
An apology.
In another sense, a word meaning affirmation.
"What I thought was──"
Chrono said.
First, he made a move. And then, he made her angry.
He'd get slapped on the cheek, kicked in the stomach, and become the target of her anger. And then, whether she liked it or not, her pent-up feelings would come out, so if he received all of it with his whole body, Minerva's state would improve a little bit.
Then, after all the gas that filled her head had escaped, he'd start the conversation──that was the plan, he said.
"I didn't know you'd accept it to this extent...."
"....Really."
Minerva found herself saying.
"Chrono, what are you, some kind of Athena?"
".....I'm sorry..."
Somewhere, it seemed like Athena was yelling that her name shouldn't be used as a curse word, but she put that aside for now.
Minerva held Chrono in her arms and quietly whispered in his ear.
"Don't do that to other women. Leaving aside the anger itself...."
....Because it felt like I was being abandoned by Chrono, and I was really, really scared.
"I am truly, deeply sooorry....."
Perhaps it was Minerva's calm voice that stabbed at his guilt more.
Chrono repeatedly bowed his head and apologized to Minerva, and to this, Minerva replied:
"Actually... the feeling of being violated by Chrono excited me a bit...♡"
"What?"
"That is, because it felt like I was being fiercely desired....."
"..........."
The reason she didn't get angry probably included various factors, but...
'...Come to think of it, Minerva was an M, wasn't she?'
Chrono suspected that her sexual preferences had also played a part.
As an aside,
"............"
Rhea, who had directly observed the whole scene from far away.
From beginning to end. As she had watched everything, Rhea spoke within her heart.
'...What's different?'
She didn't know what it was directed at, or what was different.
Only one question without a known reason remained blankly in her chest.
