The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 349

Ember felt like her heart would jump out of her chest.

It wasn't merely due to surprise; her senses were warning her about the grave danger she landed herself in once again.

'Waah! How come you're back so fast?! What happened to 'won't return before the day ends'? Erlos, you liar!'

Draven had appeared inside the study when she expected his absence and she was caught looking at his personal belongings without his permission. Wasn't this a familiar situation?

Ember silently swallowed. She was scared of him doing indecent things again and she would be forced to rest her body the entire day. What if he gives her punishment for being caught? Then what awaits her...

She could not bear the following embarrassment--and, and! She had important things to do! She had no desire to waste her days keeping up with her overly energetic mate! No, no, this cannot be!

"Draven..." she tried to say, but could not continue words because she could feel his head lowering behind her, his hot breath brushing against the delicate lobe of her ear. His hands gently cradled and squeezed hers, and her heart seemed to stutter when she found him inhaling her scent at the crook of her neck.

"D-didn't I say, say that...that I don't want to see you and talk to you?"

She tried her luck as she remembered how he respected her wishes and left without meeting her the previous day. Maybe he would listen again, unfortunately, she was being far too optimistic.

"I am behind you. You cannot see me," he replied, his lips leaving a trace of light kisses on her smooth neck, "and you don't need to talk to me if you don't want to."

Trying to resist his seduction, Ember briefly closed her eyes. She wanted to argue, to hurl back some witty response at what he said, but his skillful teasing was muddling her thoughts. She tried to calm her senses to no avail. Though her mind wanted to remain rational, her body was ready to give in to her mate's advances. The effect of the bond was making it difficult for her to reject her mate.

"Draven, the map..."

"I am not stopping you. You can continue what you are doing," he said gently before biting her neck.

His intention was clear--that he would not let his mate go when she herself came to him. He tried his best to stay away from her but now she was here...with her smelling this delicious... His study was filled with her sweet scent, making him lose his mind.

Light gasps left her lips as she tried to speak, "I...need to learn...understand... this map...I need to focus..."

"Shall I help you to learn and understand it then?"

She felt his lips brushing against her cheek as his hoarse voice sounded like the temptation to her senses, hard to resist.

She audibly gulped. "Then...you need to stop this so you can help me...."

"I can help you like this as well," he said and moved his face forward, such that the sides of their faces brushed past each other, causing her to gulp once more. His hands remained holding her hands against the desk, such that he could move her right hand along with his to touch the markings on the map.

"This is Agartha."

"I know--" The rest of her words were caught in her throat as she was caught by surprise. "W-What are you doing?!"

His other hand had found its way towards her skirt, starting to lift it up.

"Teaching you," he replied as if that naughty hand wasn't his and continued to move her right hand on the map. "This is the mountain range that acts as a natural barrier surrounding our kingdom."

Ember clearly could not focus on the map as her attention was diverted by the naughty intentions of Draven's left hand.

"Your hand..."

"It won't stop you from learning this map," he replied and moved her hand once again. "These mountains are what you see through your window."

Though he was explaining to her, his main focus was somewhere else as well. On his hand which was slowly sliding under her dress from below, now slowly, tenderly, playfully heading to that precious place between her thighs.

"D-Draven, you can't..."

"What I can't?"

"You..."
