Getting spoiled in a woman dominating world Chapter 606: The past that lingers [1]

Charlotte moved quickly up the stairs and halfway through the upstairs hallway, she nearly collided with Elize.

Her Big Sister stood there in simple clothes, having just come from the direction of the bedrooms.

The sudden near-collision made both of them stop short.

Elize’s eyes widened slightly in surprise, then softened with quiet concern as she looked at Charlotte’s disheveled appearance.

"Charlotte? You’re awake... Are you alright? You look-"

"Big Sister, I will talk to you later."

Without another word, she stepped to the side and walked straight past her Big Sister.

Elize turned slightly, watching her go with a faint frown.

Charlotte reached her door, pushed it open, and stepped inside.

Elize remained standing where she was for a moment longer "What’s up with her?"

The hallway fell into a brief silence.

Then, from the direction of the stairs, familiar footsteps approached.

Elize turned her head just as Brandon appeared at the top of the staircase.

When his eyes met hers, Elize’s gaze softened in affection "Dear..."

Brandon walked straight toward her without slowing.

The moment he reached her, he slipped his arms around her waist and pulled her firmly into his embrace.

"Haa-" Elize let out a soft breath as her body met his bare chest.

He then brought one hand up, his fingers lightly brushing along her jaw as he tilted her head back just enough to meet her properly.

And then he kissed her.

Elize’s eyes fluttered as she melted into it and her arms slid up to wrap around his neck.

Her fingers lightly threaded into the hair at the back of his head while she returned the kiss.

Elize’s forehead brushed against his as the kiss briefly broke for air.

"...Kael," she whispered against his lips. "We’re still in the hallway..."

Brandon reached up with one hand and grabbed the front of her tank top.

With a firm tug, he pulled the fabric downward, stretching the neckline until it slipped beneath the full curve of one breast.

The deep valley of her cleavage was suddenly exposed, and a moment later her pink nipple came free.

"Should we get in a room then?" His thumb brushed lightly along the underside of her exposed breast as he spoke.

Pecking his lips, she murmured "...Everyone is thrilled after your return."

"Florence, Ravene, Eira, Yve, Jiyeon, Dhayun... even Charlotte is still shaken. They all want to be near you right now."

Her fingers lightly squeezed his hand, "You should be with them for now. Spend time with everyone. Let them feel that you’re really back."

A small smile tugged at the corner of her lips as she leaned in just enough for her breath to brush against his mouth.

"...We can continue this at night, dear. It’s been so many years since you properly felt this Aunt’s body right?"

Nodding, he leaned down and Elize’s breath hitched the moment his lips brushed against the soft curve of her breast.

He pressed a kiss directly against her nipple first before parting his lips and taking it fully into his mouth.

"Haa... Kael-"

His tongue dragged slowly over the stiffened nipple while he sealed his lips around it, sucking with greedy pressure.

The wet heat of his mouth made Elize’s fingers tighten in his hair as her back pressed more firmly against the wall behind her.

After several long seconds, Brandon’s teeth lightly grazed her nipple... and then he bit down to leave a clear mark.

Elize’s body jolted slightly at the sharp spark of sensation, and a muffled whimper caught in her throat as he continued to hold the sensitive nipple between his teeth for a moment longer.

When he finally released her nipple, a glistening trail of saliva connected his lips to her nipple for a brief second before breaking.

The soft pink flesh was now flushed a deeper color, and a distinct reddish mark was already beginning to form around it.

"...You’re right," he murmured. "It has been too long."

Elize’s eyes narrowed slightly at the heated look still lingering on his face.

She reached up and firmly pinched his cheek "Naughty guy. This dessert is for tonight. Don’t get greedy so early in the day."

She held his cheek for another second, giving it a light squeeze before releasing it.

Then she finally reached down and pulled her tank top back into place, covering the marked nipple, though the slight outline of the bite could still be faintly seen through the thin fabric if one looked closely enough.

"Go and check on Charlotte first. She seemed flustered when she passed by me earlier."

Brandon let out a quiet chuckle "Alright, I’ll go check on her."

He leaned in one more time and pressed a lighter kiss against Elize’s lips before finally stepping back.

Elize’s lips curved into a small smile as she smoothed down the front of her tank top.

"Now go. Before I change my mind and drag you into a room myself."

With another soft chuckle, Brandon nodded and turned toward Charlotte’s door.

Behind him, Elize remained leaning lightly against the wall for a second longer with a faint, private smile still on her lips.

---

Brandon quietly turned the handle and stepped inside Charlotte’s room, before closing the door behind.

Charlotte’s room was neat as always, though a few small signs of her earlier rush remained with a discarded outer layer of clothing draped over a chair.

From the adjoining bathroom, the clear sound of running water reached his ears.

She was still bathing.

Brandon paused near the door for a moment, listening to the steady rush of the shower and the occasional soft movement from inside.

After a few seconds, he walked further into the room and sat down on the edge of her bed.

The mattress dipped slightly under his weight as he leaned forward, resting his elbows loosely on his knees while he waited.

The sound of running water suddenly stopped.

Then Charlotte’s voice came from behind the bathroom door, "Kael...?"

Brandon lifted his head toward the bathroom.

"I’m here, Big Sis."

There was another short pause from the other side.

He could faintly hear the soft rustle of movement, the sound of her probably reaching for a towel.

A few seconds later, the bathroom door opened fully.

Charlotte stepped out with a white towel wrapped around her body and her hair was still wet, clinging to her shoulders and back.

Small droplets of water trailed down her collarbones and disappeared beneath the edge of the towel.

Charlotte hurriedly walked straight toward him.

The moment she reached the bed, she climbed onto his lap without a word, straddling him as the towel rode up slightly along her thighs.

Her arms wrapped tightly around his neck, and she pulled herself against his bare chest, pressing her still-damp body fully against him.

Brandon’s hands naturally settled at her waist, feeling the warmth of her skin through the thin towel.

Charlotte buried her face against the side of his neck for a brief second, her wet hair brushing against his cheek... then she lifted her head.

Before either of them could say anything, Brandon leaned in and captured her lips.

Her lips were still slightly wet from the bath.

Charlotte let out a quiet breath into the kiss as she tightened her arms around his neck.

Brandon’s hands slid along her back over the towel, holding her firmly against him while their mouths moved together in a slow kiss.

When they finally parted just enough to breathe, Charlotte remained seated on his lap, and a few strands of wet hair stuck to her cheek

She let out a soft sigh and hugged him tighter, burying her face against the side of his neck.

Her damp body pressed fully against his bare chest as she held onto him in silence for several long seconds.

Brandon slowly raised one hand and began gently patting her back as he sensed something was wrong with her.

"...Is something bothering you?" he asked quietly.

"If it’s about the kiss earlier in front of Jiyeon and Dhayun... you don’t need to worry so much. They’ll eventually find out about us anyway."

Charlotte shook her head against his neck.

"It’s not just that," she muttered, her voice low and tight with emotion.

She stayed quiet for another moment, her fingers curling slightly against his bare shoulders.

"...I’ve been a very bad Big Sister lately."

Brandon’s hand paused briefly on her back, but he didn’t interrupt.

He simply continued holding her as she kept her face hidden against him.

"I let you get swallowed by that time storm in the tower," as she muttered, her voice trembled slightly.

"I was right there... and I still failed to protect you. You were gone, and it was because of me. Because I wasn’t strong enough and I wasn’t careful enough."

Her arms tightened around his neck.

"And then today... after finally seeing you again, I lost control and kissed you so clumsily in front of the others. Like some impulsive child who doesn’t know how to hold herself back."

A bitter breath escaped her lips "If the real Charlotte was here... the original one... none of this would have happened."

"She wouldn’t have failed you in the tower. She wouldn’t have embarrassed herself like that downstairs. She would have handled everything properly."

Charlotte finally pulled back just enough to look at him.

Her golden eyes were slightly damp, "...I’m just another split personality of the real Charlotte."

"A fragment that managed to stay on the surface. Sometimes I wonder if I’m even qualified to call myself your Big Sister when the original version of me isn’t the one sitting here with you."

She lowered her gaze, wet strands of white hair falling forward around her face as she remained seated on his lap.
