I’ll Become the Female Lead in this Trashy Webnovel

22. Why do you keep making fun of people? (1)

The hot lips licking her wet face swallowed her flowing tears.

Joshua’s behavior as if he was ready to throw her away anytime, finally made sense at this point.

He tried his best to hold back his boiling anger but in the end, he had lost his string of reason.

She felt sick.

Every inch of skin that Joshua had licked and bitten felt bitter but the most painful thing she had experienced in his hands was when he forced her legs to open.

Feeling miserable for no reason, she thumped her broad chest in front of her.

“You’re so horrible, Joshua. You upset me.” She mumbled tearfully.

The lips touching her cheek withdrew and the thick fog in the crown prince’s blood-red eyes cleared up bit by bit.

“Why do you keep making fun of me, Ariad?”

“When did I make fun of you?”

“You’re making fun of me every time you talk about love.”

“I didn’t make fun of you.”

“I’m not forcing you to tell me you love me when I know it isn’t true. You don’t have a heart, Ariad.”

Joshua was smart.

He liked to play dirty as well.

She decided to retreat from her mission in the meantime.

If she tried brainwashing him by adding him more nonsense, Joshua might wish her dead.

Joshua swept away the traces of the punishment he left.

Despite his gentleness, the places where his hands touched her were already ruined.

Then, his warm fingers were lifted from her skin and the body pressing heavily on her stomach withdrew.

Joshua slipped out of bed.

“Where are you going?” She asked curiously as a sense of relief washed over her system.

When no answer was heard, Sohee closed her droopy eyes as her limbs weakened.

She paid  no mind to the slip dress that crumpled on her stomach.

A long time had passed since that moment.

By the time the bonfire’s dull heat engulfed her skin, a familiar touch reached for her again.

“What is it?”

Her eyes opened when she felt something moist.

It turned out Joshua was wiping her body with a damp towel.

As he gently wiped the traces off his lips on her skin, Sohee winced from the pain of his slight touches.

After scanning her body thoroughly for sores, bruises, and tears, Joshua lifted his hands off her so that he could apply ointments to them.

As expected, Joshua’s hobby must be inflicting pain and providing the cure, afterward.

“Ha.” She yelped.

Joshua pulled his finger back when he noticed that her wound was hurting her.

After closing the medicine kit, he climbed back to bed to peel the slip dress stuck around her abdomen.

He wrapped an arm around her waist to raise her and help her wear his shirt.

The size was so big that even if he tied the excess fabric near her waist into a knot, the wide neckline continued to drop off her shoulders.

Nevertheless, Joshua laid Sohee back on the bed.

Joshua acted so differently from before that his kind gestures made her nervous, somehow.

“I hate you, Joshua.”

“I’m sorry for hurting you.” Joshua’s murmur enveloped her as he planted a kiss on her forehead.

Then, he stood by the bed and did something suspicious.

He unbuttoned his shirt one by one.

The muscles of his broad shoulders, chest, and abdomen made her dizzy with desire as his fingers grabbed the buckle of his pants.

So-hee was so surprised that she hadn’t even thought of closing her eyes.

“What are you doing?” She asked in a trembling voice.

Joshua’s trousers went down in the blink of an eye.

“I take my clothes off when I sleep.”

“Oh? But you didn’t do it yesterday.”

“Because that wasn’t my room.”

What is this?

Was this a new kind of bullying?

While Sohee was still confused, Joshua’s underwear also dropped and his c*ck was revealed.

The crown prince was a perfect exhibitionist.

Turning her head away from him, Sohee demanded. “Are you insane? Are you going to sleep like that?”

She had already witnessed everything except his soul.

“Hey!” Now, she could feel him lying on the bed next to her. “Why are you coming up like this?”

“This is my bed.” He replied calmly.

Sohee snorted, finding it absurd.

Then, Joshua covered her with the blanket and hugged her tight.

She could feel his naked form——from his head, his tantalizing middle, and down to his toes—through her thin shirt.

Sohee was certain this was a different kind of bullying at this point.

“Joshua, I’m sorry.”

“Why?”

Joshua urged So-hee to face him instead of the wall.

So-hee fixed her gaze on his handsome face as she tried her best not to look at anything else.

“I’m sorry for everything I have done. Can you please put on some clothes for me?”

Joshua smirked.

His slow, mischievous smile annoyed her so much she wanted to return to Ariad’s room.

“How about wearing a robe?”

Joshua didn’t respond but he got out of bed.

The moment he lifted the blankets, Luna saw how fine and how smooth his upper body looked.

She was nothing but a potato compared to this man.

Feeling satisfied at the quick glance, Sohee closed her eyes as Joshua wrapped himself with the robe right next to him.

“Why are you so shy, Ariad? I just did what you told me to do.”

“It’s my first time seeing your body.”

Come to think of it.

It was true.

When they have sex, Joshua would only take her clothes off and not his.

He would only loosen the buckle of his pants.

“This is unfair!”

He must have seen Ariad’s naked figure to his heart’s content when he helped her shower one time.

Lying flat on his back, the man in robes clutched the ribbon tied around his waist.

“Should I take my robes off again? Do you want to see it?”

“Argh!” She screamed.

Joshua chuckled in response.

When So-hee glared at him, he hugged her with a smile while patting her on the back.

How strange~

It felt like they were skin-to-skin despite both of them wearing clothes.

Then, he whispered low in her ear. “You wanted to stay with me, didn’t you?”

“Yes.”

“If you wanted to be next to me, you shouldn’t care about what I do, alright?”

She answered his first question easily, but she was silent in the second.

Sohee just shook her head a bit to pacify him.

As the hand on her back brushed the purple hair against his chest, he said sweetly,  “Good girl.”

Of course, Sohee was anything but good.
