Chapter 229: Who is hotter: sun or fire? (3)

When she looks at him, Mahuna swallows her saliva. His eyes are burning with such intense passion. She realises that she has no chance. He is certainly hotter than she is.

"I love you." He whispers, brushing his lips against her lips softly. "I love you. I love you. I love you so much…"

However, his soft words don't match his actions. Mahuna opens her mouth to reply, but her voice betrays her. She moans as he penetrates her with his fingers, gasping for air. Mahuna raises her head to ask him to stop this assault of pleasure.

With the last string of rationality in her head, Mahuna realizes that she's been wrong about everything. This guy, who wouldn't talk to her while looking straight in her eyes in the past, is actually in love with her. And his fingers are moving inside her as if he won't release her until he finds out everything about her body.

It's too late. She inhales sharply. Her skin glistens with sweat. The fire in her body is reaching its peak, tantalizing every vein. She trembles violently as she reaches the zenith, letting out a loud cry of ecstasy. 

Only to regret in the next instant.

Mahuna's body becomes limp as if she doesn't have any strength left after reaching the climax. She looks at him with a begging look for mercy. If he torments her again, she might cease to exist.

"Mahuna," Eshyal murmurs her name as he bends down his head and bites her collarbone, grabbing her plump buttocks and raising her. He nibbles on her lips and mumbles, "I want you."

Her back rubs against the wall. Forgetting the fact that she's a goddess, Mahuna coils her arms around his neck, holding him tightly. Mahuna curls her toes when the tip of his hardness presses against her hole. She quivers weakly. "Please be gentle."

His passion is scaring her. 

Eshyal smiles warmly at her face. "I will."

***

Next day, Mahuna is lying on Eshyal's bed. 

"Gentle." She grumbles, pulling the blanket closer to her neck. "Does he not know the meaning of gentle?

It seems that the god of the sun doesn't know what 'gentle' is. 

She's exhausted. That day, he didn't stop for hours. How many times did they do it? Even though both of them are gods, how could he still have some energy left when she can't even get out of the bed? Everywhere hurts, especially her back and. Her nether regions feel sore.

When she hears the sound of his footsteps, She covers her face with the blanket. Actually, she woke up when he was giving her a bath. But she pretended to be asleep. Then, he laid her down on the bed and left. She wonders how she should treat him. 

He confessed his love to her. He even told her that he wants her. What should she do? This is not what she had in mind. She came here to challenge him.

And he won. 

Mahuna blushes hard. When did he fall in love with her? Did he keep looking at her because he was in love with ehr? He wasn't looking down at her, but…

His past actions start to make sense to her. 

"I should have controlled myself." His voice sounds guilty. "It's hard to control… She suddenly came and I wasn't ready. Will she accept my apology? It was my first time. Was I horrible?"

First time? 

Has he never been with a woman before? Noras and Ea got married when they were young. Adira had married a human before he married Ari. What about this god? Honestly, she doesn't know much about him. He was already awkward around her. 

Well, it was also her first time. The deed. In the past, she did have lovers. But they couldn't even endure her touch when things started to heat up.

"Should I talk to Noras?" Eshyal covers his mouth with worry. "What if she never wakes up because I penetrated her too much?"

Wait! What did he say? 

"I should have done it only one time."

Is he looking down at her again?

"She's so exhausted after one day."

"..." That's true, but it's his fault. 

"She might reject me because I am horrible."

"You!" Mahuna sits up abruptly, startling Eshyal. "Why do you keep saying funny things?"

Eshyal takes a step back. "I-I-I… I…"

"What?" She snaps at him. Her hair glows in fury. "I asked you to be gentle."

"I-I t-tried my best!" Eshyal's lips tremble, eyes turning misty. He looks down in the same, fumbling with his fingers. "Mahuna, I am sorry."

Her temper goes down a little after hearing his sincere apology. "What were you going to ask Noras?"

"I was only going to ask her if he knew any treatment for…" He glances at her shyly. "For exhaustion and soreness of certain areas of a female body."

Is that what guys talk about when they discuss sex? And Noras is such a dimwit. Doesn't she know how he is in bed? Ea usually talks about it. "Did you forget that I am a goddess?"

"B-But…" Eshyal peeks at her again. "I am sorry."

"Is that what you are supposed to say to me?" She glares at him. "My hips hurt. I can't move my body without feeling any ache. My vagina has been ravaged by someone who doesn't know the meaning of gentle. And it was also my first time."

"F-First time?" He widens his eyes. "Mahuna, I am really sorry."

"Can't you speak without stammering?" She scowls at him. "You were speaking clearly yesterday. How many times did you say that you love me? Then, you kept telling me that you would spend eternity with me. After that, you were shameless enough to say that you lost control and gave all of your seeds to me."

That's what irks her the most. Gods and goddesses shouldn't have a problem controlling it. They can get pregnant when both parties in the relationship want to. But they need to control certain aspects of their bodies a bit….

Eshyal certainly wasn't in control. And she also… sort of… let go of herself in the middle. 

"I also lost control yesterday." She runs her fingers through her hair. Ea will be excited. "Marry me or I will train our child to kill you in the future."

"You will marry me?" Eshyal hasn't expected to receive a marriage proposal from her. 

"Did you want to spend the rest of your eternity watching me like a creep?" She knits her brows. "I came yesterday because I wanted to find out which one was hotter among us."

He blinks his eyes. Did he misunderstand her?

"Since you won, I will grant your wish." She waves her hand, staring hard at the wall to her right. She can't look at his face. "You love me. You want me. And I am pregnant already. It's only natural that I want to give birth to a legitimate child. A child of two gods is also a god. So, we will get married next --"

Eshyal jumps in the bed and takes her in his arms. "We will get married tomorrow."

"Tomorrow is too soon," she yelps.

"I have waited too long." He pushes her down on the bed, staring into her eyes, "I can't wait anymore. Besides, I should be next to you during this period."

Noticing the evil glint in his eyes, Mahuna realizes something. She might have been tricked into saying all that. The sun god is definitely not what he seems.

Alas! It's too late.

The goddess of the fire gives into the fervent kiss.
