Kiss Me If You Can [NOVEL] - Chapter 21

Chase only looked at him for a moment without saying a word. Josh rested his arm on the roof of the car and raised his cigarette to his mouth. Smoke clouded Josh’s face and it was soon gone.

How would he react if this man refused? He saved him, but will he be mad at him? Or should he scratch his head and back off? It’s ridiculous that he’s thinking about this … Shouldn’t he yell so loud that he’s talking nonsense? Doesn’t he think he should be mad at what this idiot is talking about?

While thinking that, Chase just watched Josh tilt his head. At this rate, their lips will touch. His intentions were obvious. But it would all end if he sat down and slipped away. So if Josh’s attempt fails, Chase will be able to laugh at him however he wants.

But even though he knew everything, Chase didn’t move. He didn’t tease him, he didn’t turn his head, he didn’t push Josh away. All he did was wait for Josh to kiss him.

How to refuse, a man so hurt because of him. His long lashes slowly fell before his eyes. Only after Josh closed his eyes did Chase close his as well. It was after that that their lips touched. Oh, and he sighed without realizing it. Only then did Chase reluctantly admit. Even if this man didn’t risk his life for himself, he would have kissed those lips. Chase reached out and brought Josh’s head closer. He wanted to engage his lips more deeply and savor inside.

As soon as he opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, it immediately tangled with Josh’s. Josh’s tongue stroked Chase’s with as much skill as he’d expected. The smooth saliva mingled and his slick tongue licked his surface, stroked his underside, and curled around him.

Chase moaned through their laced lips.

Jesus, he’s very good at kissing.

Josh pulled away and this time changed direction and kissed him. Chase raised his teeth and bit down on Josh’s lower lip in revenge for stopping kissing him for a moment. He could feel Josh laugh. When Chase opened his mouth his brief bite was released. The lips had come together again, the tongue that entered his mouth, licked his lower teeth and turned seductively. The lips, which had come together, changed angles, and this time Josh took hold of Chase’s mouth.

Saliva rolled from his mouth. The thick tongue slid out of Chase’s mouth, up his chin, swept the corners of his mouth, and returned to his mouth.

Josh’s hand touched Chase’s neck. A hard finger ridiculously caressed the nape of the neck. Chase shrugged unconsciously.

That was not the end. Slowly, his caressing fingers slowly wrapped around his neck and he untied the knot of his tie so easily. Soon after, his finger, feeling the collar of a narrow shirt, opened the button with only a slight movement, and Josh’s hand entered without hesitation through the open shirt.

“… Ah.”

When Josh bent his head and bit into Chase’s neck, he let out a deep groan inadvertently. Meanwhile, Josh’s hands found the meat secretly hidden in it. When his finger brushed the nipple, which was in a state of arousal, Chase stopped breathing.

“Mr. Miller”.

Josh’s lips, coming back to his ear, bite down on his lobe and release it, wondering softly.

“Can I do more?”

He was not naive enough to ask, “What?” Chase started reluctantly into his face with wide eyes. Josh’s face, clearly visible in the bright moonlight, was smiling as before.

He had no idea what this man was doing. Whether he pitched it or are serious about it, is he nervous waiting for an answer or just joking with him?

Josh, who seemed to be waiting for an answer for a moment, bowed his head again. Chase knew his mouth overlapped. As before, he will kiss and mix his tongue. The difference was his hand, which now proudly entered his shirt and caressed his bare skin.

What will happen if we leave it as it is?

As if to give the answer, Josh’s hand slipped out and touched Chase’s third button. At the same time, a sigh hits their lips just before they touch, Chase whispered.

“Stay away you fucking idiot.”

Josh’s hand stopped momentarily. He could ignore Chase’s intentions and stubbornly open the button. He could put his hand inside his shirt and touch his skin. No, he sure will. It was only a second or two, but Chase was sure. So when Josh raised his head with a bitter smile, he felt confused for a moment, unable to accept the reality in front of him.

“That’s too bad.”

That was it. Josh’s reach came into view of Chase. His hands, reaching out without hesitation, broke into Chase’s jacket. Body temperature brushed against his shirt and Chase stopped breathing.

This time, he thought. Without even choosing whether to laugh or reject this man.

However, expectations had been dashed. Josh pulled a cigarette case from the inside pocket of his jacket like he was watching. That was it. As if not interested in Chase’s bare skin, which was clearly revealed in front of his eyes, he carefully withdrew his hand. Chase watched rapt as Josh tossed his finished cigarette, took out a new one, and popped it into his mouth. Wait, why am I embarrassed?

He realized that he was beyond dumbfounded. If you were going to resign like this, why did you bring up the idea of ​​doing more from the beginning? Chase gritted his teeth. Josh misunderstood his fierce face again.

“Oh I’m sorry.”

Apologizing for what he’d said, he lit a cigarette, sucked on it once, and suddenly bit on Chase’s lip. At one point, Chase paused, but Josh stood up unconcerned, then took another cigarette out of the box and placed it in his mouth. After raising the freshly lit cigarette to his mouth, Chase stared at him absurdly, inspecting his sad face as he smoked.

What kind of idiot is this?

For the moment, he even thought he had tricked him. But it eased the anger that had been drowned out that the blood on Josh’s cheek had come into view.

He looked really tired. It was no wonder that he fought several coyotes alone to protect Chase. That man was devastated like that and, to his surprise, Chase had no scratches. Actually, it wasn’t enough even if I had to smoke like a truck. While Josh was in such trouble, the thought that he hadn’t done anything suddenly crossed Chase’s head. Then the feeling that had risen coldly subsided.

“…? Why?”

Josh, who happened to turn his head, met Chase’s expression and asked in amazement. Neither the disheveled hair, nor his entire body covered in blood and dust, nor the beautiful face that was hurt, did not please Chase with everyone. He felt so bad he wanted to curse, but all he did was rub his hair out in irritation. Josh was still smoking. Chase looked at him with thin eyes, drank smoke slowly and then spat it out, just looked at him. That man must have been protecting him like this when he was losing his mind over nothing. When he thought that, he felt a sense of shame and an unfamiliar emotion.

“Mr. Miller?”

He called Chase again. When Chase, who came to his senses late, hesitated, Josh smiled again. It was a refreshing smile that everyone couldn’t help but be drawn to. When Chase saw his face, he tried to speak nonchalantly, but he didn’t want to smoke at all, but when he came to, the cigarette that had been left in his mouth was still between his lips.

I realized that I was inside.

For a moment he looked at the man who had relayed it to him. Josh was still waiting for his words. Chase took the cigarette out of his mouth before speaking.

“… are you hurt ? umm, are you okay?”

His voice was resting for no reason, so he had to cough hastily. Josh replied without laughing at Chase.

“Don’t be loud, I’m not hurt.”

“But they bit you”

Chase’s voice trembled slightly. Josh put the cigarette to his mouth silently. Chase tossed his hair nervously. Josh, silently observing his extreme agitation, opened his mouth after letting out a long smoke.

“That’s my job, to protect you.”

Chase slowly turned his head. Facing a look full of mistrust, Josh smiled briefly.

“I just did what I had to do, so you don’t get hurt.”

“Who is injured?”

Chase gritted his teeth. Josh made it insignificant again this time.

“I’m glad you didn’t”

“…”

Chase, who stared at him for a moment, opened his mouth

“Are you doing everything they ask of you?”

“To the extent possible?”

In imitation of Chase’s speech, Josh replied. He wanted to destroy his relaxed face somehow. Chase asked, narrowing his eyes.

“Can you kill people too?”

For the first time, a smile disappeared from Josh’s face. Exactly the way he smiled, he fixed his eyes on Chase. Chase was very pleased with his completely absent eyes.

“I can’t be a criminal.”

He received a different and harsh response. Chase smiled.

“I knew it.”

Josh looked at him without saying a word. With a half-burned cigarette in his mouth, he took a deep breath of smoke. Josh opened his mouth a couple more times after blowing the smoke out.

“Who do you want to kill?”

Josh’s expression was serious. Chase asked, narrowing his eyes.

“You are going to do it?”

“No.”

Chase smiled at the immediate refusal. But it was too early to be sure of victory. A wicked smile appeared on Josh’s face as usual.

“If you kiss me in return, I’ll think about it.”

At the time, Chase was dumbfounded and inadvertently twisted his face.

“Isn’t it too cheap?”

Anyway it must be a joke. That man has never been serious all the time. Thinking about it made Chase offended again. However, Josh was still relaxed. He smiled and said, a cigarette between his fingers.

“I think your kiss is worth it.”

“Stop talking nonsense …!”

When Chase gritted his teeth at the words, Josh blinked in surprise and soon smiled strangely.

“If I said it’s not enough, what would you give me?”

His tone of speech has deftly changed. At that point Josh appeared to Chase as a spent and exhausted playboy. As proof, Josh narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered seductively under his breath.

“Sleep together?”

“…”

Chase couldn’t answer right away. He should have hurled insults right away and got angry, which he regretted much later. But at that moment Chase was strongly tempted to accept it, much less crawl. Maybe someone had the same idea. Chase could be sure. The heart thudded.

Am I going to say that? Even if I don’t do that, will I declare that I will sleep with you?

Josh was seen bowing his head. Chase thought they would kiss, but he was wrong. He raised the cigarette in his hand to his lips and reached out an empty hand to Chase. A gently reddened finger moved to his ear.

At the touch of his cold, hard finger, which he brushed gently, Chase winced. He wanted to say it was from the cold, but Chase knew it wasn’t. Josh’s eyes narrowed, moving slowly up and down his earlobe.

The poignant touch was significant.

This man is a Beta.

You can’t leave a mark or something. It is impossible for you, for this man, for the other.

However, Chase thought casually. The sight of this man carving a mark.

At that moment, his heart began to beat wildly as his eyes were blank out of focus.

When Josh leaned in and their lips moved closer, Chase thought he would leave a mark. And you can finally own this man.

“Uh.”

When he still closed his eyes, Josh suddenly spat out a short exclamation. When he opened his eyes in amazement, Josh removed his body and looked up at the sky. At the same time, Chase heard the loud sound of a helicopter.

“I thought it would be tomorrow very soon, but I’m lucky.”

Josh said it with a wide smile. Chase looked at him puzzled, but Josh hastily turned around as if he had no interest.

“Here here!”

Josh took the flash out of the trunk and waved it skyward. A helicopter that was flying towards the field at a slow pace stopped overhead. The ladder came down from the helicopter, and Josh, who quickly grabbed it and fixed it, looked at it.

“Let’s go in first.”

Josh quickly went back to his old days. Chase couldn’t help but feel dejected, ignoring him. Slowly getting out of the car, he looked at the helicopter, which was standing there with a loud noise overhead. It was always his that had been dumped in the garden behind the mansion. Josh grabbed a ladder from below to make it easier for him to climb. His arms were flailing from the vibrating stairs, but Josh didn’t express it.

After confirming that Chase had climbed two-thirds, Josh jumped onto the ladder.

“… ah.”

A sharp pain in his arm spread and Josh twisted his face with a small groan. The fever must have risen. Chase seemed almost up in the air.

On the stairs, Josh took a deep breath after taking center stage. Soon after, he started climbing the ladder like crazy at a faster pace than ever.

“Crazy bastard, is he human? Why is he so fast?”

Henry, looking from above, released his tongue. Isaac, sitting in the cabin, waited for him in silence and did not open his mouth. As soon as Josh got closer, Mark, who was on the waiting list, widened his eyes like Henry when he saw him approaching in an instant.

“Josh, come on …”

When he rushed to extend his hand, someone grabbed Josh’s arm in front of him and lifted him up. It happened so suddenly that he didn’t have time to stop it. Mark started with astonished eyes as Josh’s body jumped into the helicopter. And immediately Josh landed in Chase’s arms, or it was just Mark who was shocked. Even Henry, Isaac and Laura, who were watching, looked at them wide-eyed. But Chase didn’t care and hugged him, as if he wasn’t being given to anyone.

That is not the end. He looked around with a fierce gaze and gritted his teeth.

“Where is your hand, you son of a bitch? “

“…”

Everyone panicked and couldn’t what to say. No one knew what the hell was wrong. The strange thing now is that there is only one Chase.

What did we do wrong?

When Mark looked around in bewilderment, Henry and Laura shook their heads at the same time. I don’t know, like me. Josh was the only one who knew why. Of course, he didn’t know that Chase would overreact, but it needed to be dealt with anyway.

“Oh. Thank you, Mr. Miller. It’s okay now.”

Embarrassed, Josh pushed him away, saying evasively. Chase’s face hardened, but Josh pretended not to know and looked at Mark.

“It took me longer than I thought, but I’m glad everyone’s okay. What happened to Seth?”

“He’s in the middle of treatment. Fortunately, the bullet just grazed him … I’ll be back for the details … Josh?

Suddenly he called his name with a puzzled look. Josh blinked in wonder. What’s happening to me? It wasn’t just Mark. Both Henry and Laura said something puzzled. The problem is, none of that was audible. He couldn’t even hear the loud sound of the helicopters. But the most contemplative of all was Chase. At the end of seeing his pale face, Josh lost consciousness.
