Side Story Episode 43
She embraced him from behind.
Soft warmth rushed against him like a gentle breeze. Sweet fragrance enveloped his back. Slender arms stretched from behind, wrapping around his chest with sudden intensity.
“Alex.”
Alexandro Adis froze in that moment.
An eternity compressed into a single heartbeat.
“I missed you.”
Her voice scattered across his back.
“I missed you so much.”
My breathing twisted. I couldn’t breathe naturally. So I drew in a deep breath and exhaled. Then I spoke.
“Kanna Adis, let go.”
“No.”
“I told you. I need….”
“I know. I know. I understand. I know you need rest, I know that.”
Her voice trembled. The hands clutching my chest were so fevered that I could feel the heat radiating from them.
Or perhaps it was my own warmth adding to hers.
“I missed you so desperately that I couldn’t bear it.”
Alexandro Adis felt vertigo wash over him.
Difficult. My breathing grew shallow.
I stood barely upright within a tempest that battered my entire being. One misstep and I would collapse. Downward. Into that bottomless abyss.
“Please don’t abandon me.”
Kanna Adis seized my garment and pulled. She exerted force to turn my body toward her.
The strength was pitifully weak.
Yet it was absolute. I knew no way to resist it.
It had been this way since the moment we first met decades ago.
“Please, please….”
As I turned my body, drawn by her force, Alexandro Adis sensed what was coming. No—I could be certain of it.
That I would inevitably.
In the end, this time too, I would….
“Alex.”
The moment I finally faced her, everything became inevitable.
Yes, it was inevitable. It was only natural.
Kanna Adis wrapped her arms around my neck. She rose onto her toes with all her strength.
Yet it still wasn’t enough to reach, so I grasped Kanna Adis by the waist and lifted her powerfully upward.
Her approaching face was so radiant it dazzled my eyes, yet I wanted to see her until the very end.
The way her full lashes descended softly, the way her heated breath fractured delicately, the way her skin trembled as it slowly drew near….
As I claimed her lips, I understood with perfect clarity.
I am,
the worst of men.
With that sweet guilt, thought itself shattered. It exploded into brilliant white, leaving not even fragments behind.
* * *
The hour of savagery was rekindled.
In that house, just as it had been then.
Into the abyss that had tormented Alexandro Adis endlessly, he plunged with fervent abandon.
The merciful night was deep as a swamp, concealing them both within its darkness.
Unknown to anyone, unseen by all.
Throughout those hidden hours, everything burned with heat. Intoxicated by the dizzying sensation that split through his body, he felt himself falling into another world.
It was damnation.
It was paradise.
* * *
“I understand your heart.”
She spoke beneath the pale moonlight of dawn.
“Don’t think I wouldn’t know.”
Her voice scattered across his chest. Alexandro brushed her hair aside and drew her closer still.
Now his scent clung to her—from the crown of her head to the tips of her toes, she was drenched in his essence.
“Being like this with me makes you happy, doesn’t it?”
“Yes.”
“But it torments you just as much?”
Alexandro Adis answered by pressing his lips to her forehead.
“Yes.”
Not long ago, Orsini had said something.
“That peace you speak of—it seems you cannot find it beside Kanna Adis.”
His son’s words had been true.
Being at Kanna Adis’s side meant an endless war of the heart. There was no rest, no peace. She was a woman who could not be possessed without the soul-rending guilt and anguish that accompanied her.
It could be no other way.
Unless they were reborn and met in a different relationship, this sin would follow him eternally.
I knew the way to end this war.
All I had to do was end this relationship.
Never see her again. Then this pain would cease. So I did.
But truly, in my heart of hearts….
I did not wish to.
Even after declaring the end of our relationship, I prayed it would not truly end.
Because I had possessed this woman.
Because I knew the satisfaction, the wonder, the joy of that moment.
A woman I could never abandon. Yet a woman I must never possess. That was Kanna Adis.
Orsini had understood it all.
That the only enemy preventing Alexandro Adis was Alexandro Adis himself.
“So I’ve been thinking about something.”
Kanna Adis lifted her head to look at him.
“When I lived in the world where Mother was, I heard a certain story.”
“What is it?”
“It’s a story about lovers who meet only once a year.”
Kanna Adis traced the line of his jaw with her fingertips, whispering softly.
“They live so far apart that they can never be together, yet they meet once a year and love each other desperately.”
Her voice brimmed with anticipation and hope.
“So let’s do that too. But once a year is too infrequent—let’s meet more often than that.”
“….”
“I know. I know being with me causes you suffering. But isn’t a life of nothing but peace and ease terribly dull?”
She closed her eyes into a gentle smile, and that beauty mark he adored so much gleamed with enchantment.
“So sometimes, even pain would be acceptable, wouldn’t it, Alex?”
Alexandro Adis pressed his lips to her beauty mark, licking it softly. She giggled at the ticklish sensation and continued.
“Sometimes, even doing these wicked things would be fun.”
“Is that so.”
“Yes. I promise you. I’ll make you so happy that you won’t even remember guilt or shame while we’re together.”
Kanna Adis wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered into his ear.
“Darling… let’s do that, yes?”
The room spun suddenly.
Heat surged through him so intensely his eyes stung, and he released a burning groan.
“Kanna Adis.”
“Hmm? Did that sound good? I was only joking.”
“Enough.”
“Liar. You enjoy it so much. Your words and body don’t match.”
“Will you keep misbehaving?”
“Why not? We’re already wicked anyway.”
Kanna Adis caressed his flushed cheek.
“Our story may never be as beautiful and happy as a fairy tale….”
She laughed.
“But I prefer this to any happy ending.”
Alexandro Adis gazed at Kanna Adis.
Smiling beneath the moonlight that filtered through, she seemed almost divine—far too beautiful to be earthly.
But he knew the truth.
She was surely a demon wearing an angel’s face.
He was utterly bewitched. Like a blind zealot, he had laid everything he possessed upon her altar.
His life, his soul, and ultimately even his blood.
All that remained to him now was a single thing—a wretched conscience reduced to bare bone….
“You’ll do as I say, won’t you?”
She even extorted that from him.
“Promise you’ll never abandon me again.”
She demanded he surrender everything.
“Alex, you love me. You’ve only ever loved me alone, for your entire life.”
And he tempts her. If she does this, he promises, he will give her the sweetest fruit.
“Hurry… yes?”
Kanna Adis pressed her lips to the corner of his eyes. Then they fell like tears.
Tracing down his cheek, past his lips, gathering at the edge of his jaw… then slowly cascading downward.
“…Kanna.”
In the flood she unleashed, he drowned and perished. His breath quickened, grew scorching. And the world blurred away.
Reason drenched. Melted. Without trace, without form.
Alexandro Adis witnessed himself crumbling pathetically once more.
Kanna Adis was killing him. Devouring him whole like a predator.
With those beautiful lips, those sweet lips….
Everything.
Alexandro Adis exhaled with burning breath.
“Yes.”
As if his very soul were being swallowed, he clenched the sheet with one hand.
With the other, he covered his face. To avoid witnessing the moment that surely bordered on bestiality.
And he confessed.
“Yes.”
You are right.
You are just.
Always, at every moment, in every instant, I—I want you, Kanna Adis, you….
In that moment of gasping confession, in that instant when decades of secrets spilled forth, he reached the pinnacle of freedom. It was akin to liberation.
He moaned.
Because she was truly right.
Before this omnipotent ecstasy, nothing else mattered.
“I’m delighted. I knew you would say it like that.”
Before her revelation-like whisper, everything becomes clear. Vision that had shattered into white fragments grows sharp once more.
At last, all impurities vanish, and only one thing remains.
“Alexandro Adis, I truly love you.”
What he desires is only one thing.
It has always been only one thing, at every moment.
“You are mine.”
Kanna Adis.
My fate’s plunderer who shattered my life.
You have always dominated me fiercely, like a swarm of demons.
My beautiful catastrophe,
My love, whom I yearn for with burning heart.
