Villain of my own novel

Chapter 202 201. First Update.

?A week later.

The gorgeous black-haired woman with bright red eyes and bandages covering her neck, triceps, and the area below her collarbone invited a handsome white-haired man who wore formal clothes with a white shirt and black pants into her apartment with a bright smile on her face. She was wearing a white tank top with bright red baggy trousers.

She asked him to make himself comfortable and walked to the kitchen to bring something to drink while her gaze remained fixated on the white-haired man, who was making himself comfortable on the left corner of the couch with a square pillow on his lap. He leaned back, drooped his head back, and stared at her. Though she was slightly startled by his way of looking at her, she simply shook her head and smiled brightly before walking towards him.

"Thank you." Eshwar took the mug he was offered from Katline's hand, and she sat right next to him with another mug in her hand before sipping on it with a slightly flushed face.

"....Um... Katline, not to be ungrateful or anything, but.... aren't these mugs, commonly used by couples?" Eshwar asked with a confused look on his face.

"Pfftttt!! Cough! Cough, cough, cough, wha...what are you talking about? Cough!" Katline spat out the sip she just took—no, the sip actually came out of her nose, slightly; though she acted ignorant, her face, which had turned bright red, seemed to give her out.

"N-no, hahaha, it must've been a coincidence, hahaha, no, I just thought both of our mugs looked similar." Eshwar laughed it off and said with a slightly awkward smile.

'.... I.... definitely thought I wouldn't be found out!!' Katline screamed inwardly.

".....no, not at all, maybe I just took out whichever mug came to my hand, it wasn't on purpose or anything like that." Katline gave an excuse, which she was slightly proud of since it came out so perfectly that if she had been the one who heard it, she would have definitely found it perfectly appropriate.

"...oh, is that so." Eshwar replied, and the way Katline heard them, his words seemed dejected.

'.... why does it sound like he is disappointed?' She thought and sipped her drink while sneaking a glance at his face, which seemed disappointed to her.

"Ahem, anyway, why did you invite me?" Eshwar asked.

"Ah, ri-right!" Katline exclaimed loudly, sat straight with a flushed face and stiffened.

*

"So, you invited me here because you want me to remove these bandages, is that right?" Eshwar asked while pointing at the bandages slightly above her chest.

"Y-yes." Katline nodded her head with a flushed face. She stuttered so much while explaining her reasons to Eshwar that it wouldn't be weird if he looked at her weirdly.

BA-THUMP (6x)

"....Ahem, alright." Eshwar agreed with an awkward shrug.

*

"...."

"...."

"...."

"...." There was absolute silence in the living room; the clock's ticking sound resounded all the way from her room. Eshwar had already undid the bandage on her triceps; awkwardly, he was now fidgeting about how to remove the bandage around her neck. He could simply walk around and remove them, but it looked like he wasn't thinking straight. Of course, Katline was in the same boat as she too wasn't thinking straight.

And together with the ticking clock's sound, there was another sound that sounded like war drums, and that was...

BA-THUMP (6x)

Katline's heartbeat.

'T-this is crazy, no, I'm crazy. What am I even asking for? That too from Eshwar!!' Katline considered asking him to stop so she could do it herself.

SHUFFLE (3x)

"!" Katline's eyes were shot wide open when Eshwar scooted towards her out of nowhere and almost hugged her. His hands were behind her neck while his collarbone was right in front of Katline's face. Her mind went blank from his actions, and she subconsciously raised her gaze and stared at his neck and Adam's apple, which looked like it was asking to be kissed.

She slowly leaned forward towards it while sniffing his neck, opened her mouth slightly, and her small tongue came out to kiss his Adam's apple, but...

"Ack?" Something stung her neck, and she snapped out of her daze. She blushed violently when she realised what she was about to do, but didn't back down.

"S-sorry." Eshwar's soft whisper trickled into her ear; she blushed again and slightly nodded her head while staring at his neck; she then heard a heartbeat other than her own.

BA-THUMP (3x)

His heartbeat..... It was strangely calming; Katline wanted to stay like that; she wanted the time to stop so that she could live in that moment forever; she wanted...him.

'!' 'Wha...what am I thinking!!!' Katline thought, and before she could make up her mind, Eshwar leaned back and continued to unfold the bandage around her neck. She felt greatly disappointed at the missed chance.

"...." Eshwar halted and fidgeted around with stiff movements.

"?" Katline tilted her head slightly, puzzled by his actions. She then glanced down at her chest, where the bandage still remained; her head was already burning because of his actions, and now she was about to get undressed (?) by Eshwar. She was thinking about her bandages, of course, though she didn't seem to mind 'that' either.

Suddenly! She felt something trickle down into her nostrils; she wiped it off and noticed a smudge of blood on her hand; yes, she had a nosebleed from all the steamy thoughts in her head, so she quickly hid her hand behind her back and wiped it on her red trousers. Tsk, if only it weren't for Eshwar's next course of words.

"I, I, I think, it would be better if you undid that yourself." Eshwar averted his gaze and said.

"Huh? Why would I? You bandaged me!" Katline confidently declared (?) that she didn't know what she was doing or where all of her confidence was coming from, but now she just wanted him to continue. She saw Eshwar flinch at her words, so she just closed in on him before sitting on his lap subconsciously, afraid that he might run away.

"!" Eshwar was taken aback by her actions and was about to get up, but as if she knew what he was about to do, she grabbed his wrists and pulled them behind her back. Of course, she did that so that he wouldn't escape and undo the bandages if he wanted to get up, but even she was taken aback by the next course of action.

Both Eshwar and Katline moved forward in their own directions as a result of the pull, and Katline's face was now just an inch away from his; she was staring right into his eye while he had turned his head away so that something unwanted wouldn't happen that Katline would feel uncomfortable with, due to the strong pull. Of course, those were just Katline's thoughts. She felt like this was her chance and forced him to face her, kissing him before he could turn his head away.

"!" Katline saw Eshwar's eyes open wide in surprise. She hugged his head so that he wouldn't run away and continued to kiss him as passionately as she could since it was her first time.

"Mhm~" As she closed her eyes and enjoyed the kiss, she felt his left hand move towards her waist and slowly slide down; she was surprised but didn't push him away; then, his right hand moved up to her neck with his right thumb on her left cheek; he pulled her closer and began to kiss her on his own; she felt happy that he didn't push her away but was surprised at the same time when she noticed that, him kissing her felt better, by a ton, than her amateurish way of kissing.

"Mmhmn~" And they continued to kiss for a few minutes until she got herself familiar with his way of kissing, at which point her hands loosened and subconsciously moved to hold his neck before she began to slowly unbutton his shirt.

(AN: Ahem, ahem, ladies and gentlemen, these are times when things like this are required, (grins cheekily) and bam!!)
