L*ck Me If You Can Chapter 172

Even with his eyes closed, Koi could feel the bright sunlight filtering through his lids.

It took a little longer for him to actually open his eyes, since his eyelids were puffy and sore, but after blinking a few tis, he finally managed to peel them open bit by bit.

“Ahhk...”

A dull ache suddenly throbbed in his stomach. A low moan escaped his lips before he even realized it, and his brows furrowed with pain.

Only then did he beco aware of the heavy weight wrapped around his waist. As his gaze dropped slowly, he saw his own bare body, and then, thick arms encircling his hips.

Ah—

The soft gasp slipped out before he could stop it.

Then it all ca flooding back.

His face imdiately flushed bright red, and his ears burned with heat.

Koi instinctively reached up and clutched his ears—then let out a sigh of relief when ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ he felt they were still there and hadn’t co off.

It’s not a dream.

The warmth pressed against his back was all too real.

And he knew exactly whose arms were holding him.

I slept with Ash.

His heart pounded like crazy.

It really happened.

He actually had sex with Ashley.

Finally. At last!

Ashley was still asleep.

Koi could feel his calm, even breathing against the back of his neck.

After hesitating for a mont, he gathered his courage and moved carefully.

Even the slightest shift made his whole body creak.

He couldn’t suppress the moan that slipped from his lips as he slowly sat up.

“......!”

A scream almost escaped, and he quickly clamped a hand over his mouth.

As he sat up, sothing slipped out from deep inside him.

The strange emptiness and dull ache that followed made him freeze.

That’s when Koi realized—Ashley’s cock had been inside him all the way until just now.

Ashley, who had held him relentlessly until they both passed out, was still sound asleep.

His usually neat hair was a ss across his forehead.

His closed eyes were frad with long lashes, his nose was straight, his lips full and wide—

His face was angelic, so serene and beautiful that Koi felt a deep sense of peace just looking at him.

As he quietly watched him, a chill breeze brushed his shoulder.

Koi shivered involuntarily and realized the window was still open.

He rembered how Ashley—despite his build—always caught colds so easily, and with a wince, pushed himself out of bed.

Ugh.

He collapsed with a silent cry.

He couldn’t straighten his back. Couldn’t even stand.

His whole body trembled, and it was hard to breathe.

Staying like that on all fours, Koi braced himself on his arms and lowered his upper body, trying to endure it.

Finally, he lifted his hips and started crawling toward the window like a dog.

“Hh...”

As he raised his body, sothing leaked out from his stomach.

He hurriedly covered his mouth to muffle the startled breath that tried to burst out, eyes widening as he froze on the spot.

With every breath, more fluid trickled from between his legs.

Ashley’s cock had slipped out, but sothing else remained inside, filling him up.

There was no telling how many tis Ashley had co inside him.

The sensation of that thick shaft locking everything in place so nothing could escape was still vivid in his mory.

Do Alphas always have sex like this?

Koi reflected quietly as he moved slowly.

His clothes had been thrown out into the hallway, so getting them was out of the question.

Instead, he picked up Ashley’s shirt and struggled to slip his arms through, loosely buttoning it up.

Luckily, he found his pants nearby and, after pulling them on with effort, staggered over to the window.

It wasn’t until he gripped the handle with all the strength in his arm that he was finally able to stand upright.

Haaaah...

Leaning against the window fra, Koi took a deep breath.

He was about to close the window when his eyes widened in shock.

This translation is the intellectual property of Novelight.

Spread out before him was a massive park, just as bright and endless as the clear blue sky.

He rembered visiting that park when he first arrived in the East.

He had found it strange and fun, seeing so many people gathered there.

But he had never imagined he’d be looking down at it from above like this.

And beyond that, the cityscape that ca into view was dazzling and intricately structured, so beautiful it took his breath away.

Unlike the West, where the air was thick and often left his throat raw, the breeze here felt fresh and clean.

Koi widened his eyes and slowly scanned the vast view.

The overwhelming sight stretched out endlessly, and for a mont, emotion welled up in his chest.

...Huh?

Then his eyes landed on sothing that made him freeze.

Across from him, at the sa height, was another building with a balcony just like his.

And standing on that balcony—no, sitting on the railing—was a man.

That in itself wasn’t unusual.

But he was completely naked.

Koi’s mind went blank.

The sight before him was so unreal, he wondered if he might still be dreaming.

An angel.

That was the only thought that surfaced.

There was no other explanation.

Sitting there so casually, in such a place, in that state—

He was too beautiful.

It was hard to believe he was even human.

His silver hair shimred under the sunlight, gently flowing in the breeze. His half-lidded eyes were long and deep, his nose perfectly straight, and his slightly parted red lips were so beautiful they left Koi breathless.

Even his skin—milky white and almost translucent—looked so soft that Koi felt an urge to reach out and touch it.

The way he held a cigarette to his mouth with one hand while resting the other on the railing—it was so graceful it felt divine.

Was this really an angel, descended to gaze down upon the world?

As the man pursed his lips and slowly, deliberately exhaled a stream of smoke, Koi couldn’t help but think,

Maybe... he’s making clouds right now.

And then, just as that thought ford—

“Uwah!”

Soone suddenly grabbed him around the waist and pulled him back.

Koi, who barely had the strength to lean against the window, fell into the person’s arms like a dried leaf.

“What are you doing here?”

A calm voice ca from above his head.

Feeling the warmth of the man embracing him from behind, Koi’s heart started pounding.

Ashley was awake.

“I... I was just closing the window... You catch colds so easily.”

Ashley didn’t answer.

Koi couldn’t even imagine what kind of expression he might be wearing right now.

Nervous and on edge, Koi flinched when Ashley suddenly lowered his head and buried his nose against Koi’s neck, taking in a deep breath.

It tickled, and Koi instinctively shrugged his shoulders—but Ashley didn’t stop. He did it again and again, slowly inhaling Koi’s scent.

One arm still wrapped around Koi’s waist, the other hand slid to gently stroke Koi’s stomach as he finally spoke.

“Does your body... feel okay?”

Koi blinked, caught off guard by the question.

Ashley continued softly.

“I was a bit rough yesterday.”

His tone, however, carried no hint of regret or remorse. If anything, it almost sounded amused.

That subtle trace of a smile in his voice made Koi blink in confusion—

And then the mories ca crashing back all at once.

What Ashley had said while holding him tightly:

“I’ll get you pregnant.”

And then again:

“Congratulations on your pregnancy, Koi.”

No way.

Koi shook his head in disbelief. That wasn’t possible.

He was a Beta—how could he possibly get pregnant?

Ashley was in rut.

He probably wasn’t in his right mind. He must’ve just said sothing, anything, without aning it.

Or...

Did he imagine I was an Oga while we were having sex?

His heart dropped.

Ashley’s hand kept gently stroking his belly, only making his thoughts swirl even more.

I was the one who said we could be sex friends.

Koi forced himself to calm down.

If that’s what Ashley wanted—if that was all this was—then he would match it.

“...Was it okay? Yesterday, I an.”

Koi asked cautiously.

Ashley smiled and brushed his lips softly over Koi’s crown as he answered.

“It was amazing.”

Thank god.

Koi finally felt a sliver of relief.

The bitterness remained, but as long as Ashley was satisfied, that was enough.

If he hadn’t been, he probably would’ve gone and slept with soone else.

With a real Oga.

“Koi.”

Ashley’s arm tightened around his waist, pulling him flush against him.

Koi could feel the heavy shape of his cock through the thin fabric of his pants.

Realizing Ashley wasn’t wearing anything at all, Koi’s heart began to race wildly.

The mories from last night were still vivid in his mind.

Breathing beca difficult, and he shut his eyes tightly.

Ashley spoke again, voice still low and quiet.

“Do you rember what I said yesterday?”

Koi’s face flushed all the way to his ears.

But deep down, bitterness began to spread through his chest.

“Y-Yeah...”

Even as he stamred, his mind was racing.

Why was Ashley asking this? What did he want Koi to say?

It’s obvious.

Before Ashley could say anything else, Koi beat him to it.

“Don’t worry. I know you didn’t an it.

We just had sex, that’s all.”
