I Will Avoid the Male Lead and Make a Harem

⇺⇺⇺⇼⇻⇻⇻

The following kiss was light.

I kept my lips slightly parted, then let go and walked away.

And I savored the moist, soft texture and the lingering scent in my mouth.

The second kiss was also pleasant.

He waited for me patiently, perhaps regretting the kiss that ended too quickly, and followed my lips.

But he paused when I turned my head away from him.

I rested my head on his shoulder and gradually lowered my head from his ear to the nape of his neck. He stiffened and took a deep breath, surprised.

“Shhh…… Don’t be too nervous.”

Valhail stiffened, even more, when I told him not to be nervous.

I thought that was cute and ran my fingers over his flat collarbone.

“Um, this should be fine.”

Above the level of his collarbone.

I lowered my gaze to his hardened mitral muscle.

Valhail’s both sturdy forearms jumped up like a bouncing ball and stopped the moment my lips touched his skin.

It was barely visible beneath the shirt.

As long as he was a human, he would be sweating, and I expected the stench to be stronger than the ones exposed outside.

I expected the salty scent to be unpleasant, but that was not the case.

‘What the hell are you!?’

The nape of his neck smelled like freshly laundered soap.

There was no taste.

The texture of his elastic muscles beneath the smooth skin, on the other hand, made me want to bite into it.

I sucked in deeply after lightly biting the nape of his neck with my teeth and feeling bolder than I thought.

“Ha……”

A thick sigh erupted over my head, like a startled sigh. I could feel his heart pounding furiously.

It wasn’t long before I parted my lips at the reaction that was as hot as molten iron.

A red mark was engraved on his collarbone, which resembled a thick tree trunk.

‘Oh, it’s beautiful.’

The mark was smaller than my lips. Anyone who sees it would think it was a bite mark left by a vengeful mosquito.

“Do you want to see it as well?”

I pointed to the mirror next to me.

But Valhail was not in the same mood.

His perplexed, hazy gaze floated through the air like someone who had just gotten off a roller coaster.

‘Was it overstimulating?’

It seemed that his astonished heart still throbbed.

Embarrassed by the naive response, I brought a hand mirror.

“Take a look at this.”

He finally turned away from me and looked in the mirror.

“Isn’t it lovely?”

Valhail quickly twisted his eyes and grabbed the mirror.

Then, as if he couldn’t believe his eyes, he touched the red mark reflected in the mirror.

“Do you dislike it?”

“……”

“Is it bad?”

I guess he couldn’t hear me.

Rather, he was examining the marks here and there with a serious expression.

As if testing whether it disappears or not, he carefully pressed the mark and rubbed it with his hands.

It was the reaction of someone who was witnessing something for the first time.

“You seem to like it.”

He didn’t seem to dislike it, no matter how I looked at it.

‘But why are you frowning so much?’

His brow furrowed in concentration as he examined the mark.

So I took away the mirror from him.

A desperate gaze followed my hand like a puppy whose snacks had been stolen.

“Isn’t this better?”

Now you see me, huh?

Valhail did not respond to my question, but instead inquired about the mark.

“How long can this go on?”

“Well, perhaps a week for an ordinary person?”

“A week……”

His blue eyes shifted around, as if he was thinking deeply.

“Pfft.”

I couldn’t help but laugh as I looked down at him.

His enquiring gaze was fixed on me.

I hardened my face and spoke like a bad-tempered mosquito.

“You haven’t answered me yet.”

Valhail opened his mouth quickly, as if my words were a threat to take away the mark.

“I like it.”

Simultaneously, he concealed the marks with his hand. He appeared to be very concerned that I would take the mark away.

‘How adorable.’

Is a man with a big figure like him supposed to be this cute?

Valhail, who opened his covered hand slightly and looked at the mark again, turned sultry in an instant.

“…… It will be gone in less than two days.”

His cool voice was tinged with regret. He appeared to be resentful of his ability to heal himself.

“If it vanishes, I’ll make another one for you.”

The eyes that returned my gaze were filled with delight.

It was different from his usual appearance, but there was little change in his expression, which was probably due to my ability to read his emotions well.

“But if you do this again……”

Valhail shook his head as I looked at the mark on his forearm, as if he’d never do it again.

Fortunately, his bad habits seemed to be easily corrected. From what I can see, he much preferred the marks on the nape of his neck.

“Looks like Penny will be back soon……”

When I lightly said that it was time to part, he stared blankly at me.

“Do you mind if I kiss you?”

I opened my eyes wide, surprised. I couldn’t believe he said such a thing. It was a huge improvement.

“No.”

But when I refused, he stopped holding.

I sat him down again as he was about to stand up, got down on one knee on the sofa, and gave him a dangerous smile.

“You listen to me so well that I want to do it.”

His fierce gaze became entangled with mine.

“Close……”
