I’m Trying to End This Possession Chapter 244

Viego’s lips were hotter than she had imagined. The sensation seared her like a brand. That was all. Everything else blew away. Thoughts vanished. They didn’t matter.

 

Gasping for breath, Dana threw her arms around Viego’s neck and fervently responded to his kiss. The dizziness was so intense she felt as if she might lose her mind. It felt as though her entire body was being pulled into him, her soul too, everything…

 

At the very peak of ecstasy, everything was suddenly torn away. Viego had grabbed her shoulders and pushed her back. “No.” His face looked as though he had made a mistake. No, like he had failed. “Forget it.”

 

Dana panted, breathless. What?

 

“Forget what just happened. It was a mistake.”

 

“…A mistake?”

 

“Yes.” Viego declared it with a face that had already cooled. “It was a mistake.”

 

Mistake? A mistake? It felt like being slapped across the face. Dana stared at him in disbelief.

 

Leaving her cast into flames, Viego was already regaining his composure alone. As always, like he always was. He was distancing himself again…

 

At that moment, a fierce rebelliousness surged up within her. “Liar.” Dana stepped closer to him again, pressing her abdomen softly against him. Then she saw his jaw tighten rigidly.

 

Viego spoke stiffly. “You. I’m sure I told you.”

 

“I know. You said not to use my body carelessly.”

 

“And what do you think you’re doing now?”

 

“But this isn’t careless.”

 

“What?”

 

“I’ve wanted to do this for a long time.” She couldn’t hide it anymore. No, she didn’t want to hide it. Smiling faintly, Dana repeated, “I’ve wanted to keep doing this. For a long time.”

 

“…”

 

“You know, every day, thinking about you…” She rose onto her toes. When she whispered her secret into his ear, his breath abruptly stopped.

 

Viego’s face stiffened like ice, as if angry. Yet at the same time, she felt the heat beneath where she pressed against him rapidly intensify.

 

At that instant, a lava-like desire erupted violently inside Dana. She could no longer restrain it. It wasn’t about wanting to repay him. Nor about soothing his anger. Nothing like that. It was simply her own pure desire. She wanted to devour Viego. All of him. Every last part.

 

“…What are you doing?”

 

Dana’s knees touched the wet ground. The heat she felt through his clothes at her lips was intoxicating.

 

“Dana, you—”

 

Dana didn’t listen. Just this once, she would do as she pleased. She couldn’t endure it. Like fruit burning beneath its peel, yearning pooled at the tip of her tongue. Hastily, urgently, opening, deeper inside—

 

“…!”

 

The next moment, Viego drew in a sharp breath. His spine shuddered as if struck by a whip, hitting against the tree trunk behind him. She liked that. The way he didn’t know what to do. His muscles were hard and trembling. His flustered hand tangled in her hair.

 

“Stop. No more.”

 

And yet he didn’t say she couldn’t. He didn’t pull her away. That primal desire—Aah, I like it. And Viego likes it too. The proof made her shiver with delight.

 

When she looked up in that state, she met green eyes staring down at her, distorted into a mess. He was collapsing. Layer by layer, peeling away. As she witnessed refinement receding and something more savage emerging with each passing second, Dana shuddered in wave-like pleasure. And she swore to herself. You’re mine. This is all mine. I’m the only one who knows this face of Viego. I won’t show it to anyone else…

 

Amid the pouring rain, a suppressed moan escaped from Viego. Dana closed her eyes and savored the lukewarm result. Even that was good. Everything was wonderful. She wanted to swallow it all, every last bit of Viego’s ragged breathing.

 

“Live with me…” Dana moved her lips softly, caressing the lingering aftermath. “Let’s keep living here, Viego.” She saw his chest rise and fall deeply. “Okay, Viego?”

 

Viego was struggling with all his strength to regain his reason, but pitifully, his body betrayed him, still twitching faintly.

 

“Let me bear your child.” Dana moved her rain-soaked lips gently. She rounded the words with her tongue. “At the ranch, let me raise your child. Let’s live together like that. Okay?”

 

At that moment, his gaze dropped sharply. His eyes sparked like bursting embers. The instant they collided, Dana realized. Viego had imagined that future. The scene she described. Her carrying his child, giving birth, raising it together, living, growing old, dying. And he wanted it too. That secret greed had been discovered by Dana. And he knew she had discovered it.

 

That’s it… Now it’s done. The moment she became certain, a cruel satisfaction washed over her. A tremor ran along the back of her neck. Now it’s done. Viego is mine now. He can’t live without me!

The rain they’d thought was a passing shower didn’t stop even after two days. The torrential downpour caused the river to swell rapidly. And on a night several days earlier, the bodies of imperial soldiers Viego had secretly killed were swept away by the raging current. Far away, to where the river ended. To the empire’s border, where it met barbarian lands. All the way to Windsor territory.

 

“These are confirmed to be the missing soldiers, Commander.”

 

Amid the fierce rain, the young army commander looked down at the bodies of his subordinates. Thick raindrops gathered at the brim of his military cap and dripped down.

 

“Commander, at least take an umbrella.”

 

 

A subordinate held one over his head, but the man refused with a slight tilt of his chin. The heavy rain shattered pale against his broad, angular shoulders.

 

“They were soldiers killed while surveying barbarian territory.” The subordinate continued his report carefully. “A remote mountain village not even marked on the empire’s maps.”

 

“…”

 

“They went missing after departing on a mission to survey the terrain… I never imagined it would end like this.”

 

“…”

 

They had been elite soldiers personally selected by the commander. Yet in that mountain region, whoever they encountered had killed them brutally. Their bodies were so bloated with water that they were barely recognizable.

 

Unable to fully conceal the bitterness in his voice, the subordinate concluded, “We believe a dangerous individual is hiding in that land, Commander. If you permit, I will lead troops and—”

 

At that moment, Carl Windsor, who had been listening silently, spoke in a flat voice. “Where is it?”
