Chapter 785: Hate Me Forever

"Mnn... hah... nghh..."

The soft, breathless sighs of a woman echoed through the room.

Reverse Alex sat on the couch, while the lady straddling him moved her hips in a steady rhythm, bringing him closer to release.

The beads of sweat glistened down her slender, beautiful body. A body that had known no man aside from the one who conquered her.

This young lady was none other than Reverse Nessia.

Unlike her counterpart who was bold and scheming, Reverse Nessia was as innocent as she could be.

Her purity had caught Reverse Alex’s eye, which prompted him to make her his woman.

She was his plaything alongside Reverse Aeris. However, there were differences between the two.

Aeris had an inferiority complex, offering no resistance whenever Alex had his way with her.

On the other hand, Nessia was different. It might look like she didn’t resist on the surface, but in reality, she resisted far longer than anyone else.

Even though the young man had his way with her body and used her as a plaything, Nessia’s heart remained unconquered... or at least that was what Reverse Alex thought.

Then again, even if her heart were covered in steel armor, it would still be weathered by time and repeated battles.

Each time Alex embraced her, a small chink in that armor was formed. Over the years, it gradually widened until Nessia’s heart was laid bare before him.

For years, Alex had tried to make her conceive his child, even promising that her suffering would end as long as she surrendered.

Yet, Nessia resisted. She didn’t surrender at all.

She was the only one among Alex’s harem who refused this "honor" that he bestowed upon them.

Any other lady would have gladly given in and offered themselves to him fully, allowing him to plant their seed inside their womb and raise it with their own free will.

At that moment, Alex’s hand groped her right breast and kneaded it to his heart’s content. However, he didn’t put too much pressure on it, nor did he squeeze it tight.

His lovers only knew that he treated Nessia as his plaything, but none knew that Alex cared for her in his own way.

He planted his lips on her neck, sucking on it and placing his mark there.

Nessia wrapped her arms around his neck, holding onto him for support.

A few minutes later, a whimper escaped Nessia’s lips, her body trembling as Alex released his seed deep inside ‌her.

When everything had been poured inside ‌her womb, she finally lost strength and clung onto him, panting for breath.

Alex lightly patted her back, helping her calm down.

"Give birth to my child, Nessia," Alex said.

It wasn’t an order, nor was it a request. If anything, it sounded more like a wish.

A wish he was asking her to grant.

"..."

Nessia didn’t reply, but she hugged him a little tighter.

The minutes passed ‌ without them saying a word to each other. Finally, Nessia pulled back and stared at Alex’s face.

He looked at this beautiful lady, whom he had treated harshly during the first year she had become his woman.

This was why everyone pitied Nessia. If only they knew that her all-out effort to resist Alex was how she had managed to win his heart.

The shy, timid, and innocent girl, who couldn’t raise her voice and was bullied by everyone in the academy, had actually resisted the man to whom others bowed to.

Her resistance wasn’t on the surface, but in the depths of her heart. A place no one else could reach aside from the person to whom she had given permission.

The two stared at each other for nearly a minute before Nessia moved closer and kissed Alex’s lips.

He then moved to ravage those soft lips, making him feel like kissing them forever. A passionate kiss, which she had initiated for the very first time, had reached Alex’s heart.

When the kiss finally ended, Nessia rested her head on Alex’s shoulder and whispered in his ear.

"In your dreams, Alex," Nessia replied.

Her voice wasn’t firm, and it even contained an anxious tone. Yet, it still carried her determination.

"You say no, but your lower lips have surrendered to me already," Alex replied. "Even your womb is greedily sucking me in. Why not just surrender completely?"

"I won’t," Nessia stated before sucking on Alex’s neck, leaving her own mark there.

This was something none of Alex’s harem members had dared to do, for he had always disliked it whenever others marked him.

Those who tried were beaten black and blue by him, a sufficient lesson to let them know that this was one of his taboos.

And yet... Alex didn’t say anything. He wrapped his arms around her body and even patted her head, encouraging her to continue.

Nessia was surprised. She had heard the stories of Alex’s lovers who had tried to mark him as their own.

She was already expecting to be beaten half-dead, just like a year ago. Yet, nothing came.

"Go on," Alex whispered in her ear. "I’ll allow you to avenge yourself. There won’t be a next time, so have your fill while I’m still being merciful. All the suffering and the pain you felt all those years, you can now vent them out."

Suddenly, he felt something wet and warm fall down his shoulder, sliding onto his body.

At that moment, Nessia was crying silently, as if remembering all the pain and hardships that had fallen upon her since the day Alex made her his woman.

It was as if a dam had broken, making her unable to stop the flood of emotions that poured out from the deepest part of her heart.

"You evil... *hic*... man," Nessia said through her tears. "I hate... you."

"I know," Alex answered.

"I hate you."

"Mmm... hate me as much as you want."

"I hate you..."

Inside the room, Nessia’s cry echoed faintly. Through it all, Alex held her close.

It took a while for the beautiful lady to calm down. When she did, she once again kissed Alex’s lips.

Alex flinched when he felt a pain in his lips.

Nessia had bitten his lips, drawing blood.

Yet, she didn’t pull back from the kiss, taking in his blood inside her lips, savoring its unique taste.

When she had her fill, she gave the wound gentle pecks, as if apologizing to Alex’s lips. She then cupped his face and used healing magic to heal the wound on his lips.

She then placed her hand over his neck with the intention of healing the bruise that she had left there. However, Alex stopped her hand.

"Leave that be," Alex said firmly.

"But the others will see it," Nessia replied.

"I don’t care."

"They will know that I was the one who gave it to you. They will bully me if they see it."

"They would." Alex nodded in agreement. "But none of them will dare to hurt you. No matter what, I’m the only one allowed to do that."

"... I really hate you," Nessia said softly.

"I know," Alex replied before pulling her close for a kiss. "Hate me forever if you must. But if there ever comes a day when you hate me a little less, give birth to my child."

Nessia didn’t reply and remained silent.

Though the moment Alex moved his hips, thrusting deep inside ‌her once more, claiming the most important place of a woman, another small chink in her armor had appeared.

Soon, her soft, breathless sighs spread once more inside the room as Alex waited for news of Vaan’s success in his mission, which had been delayed for days.

The reason why he sought out Nessia was that he was feeling impatient. And only this lady, who still hadn’t surrendered his heart to him fully, gave him a sense of calm within the storm that was raging in his heart.
