I'm A Man Of My Word

Just after she agreed to answer my question, Astrid felt a peck on her left cheek. 

Her eyes widened in shock, and her face flushed red, especially the soft cheek where I kissed her. 

She looked like she wanted to rub her cheek to check, if she really was kissed right there, but she couldn't since her hands were bound by me. 

She could only look at me in a daze, as if she were asking in her mind, why I kissed her even though she agreed to answer my question.

"You only agreed after I counted to three, even though I said on the count of three. You can only blame yourself for being so slow." I casually blushed of the responsibility. 

"And I only kissed your cheek, so you don't have to worry about it too much."

"But even though it was on my cheek...I-It was the first time someone other then my parents kissed me..." 

She said in a daze while looking at me limpid eyes. Rather than feeling embarrassed or repulsed by it, she looked like she still couldn't believe that it happened. 

"Oh! So that was your first kiss. What a joyful first moment in your life!" I exclaimed, as if I just heard from my best friend that he got into his first ever relationship.

"Then let me congratulate your first kiss, with another one."

Chu~

Out of nowhere, when she was already confused about her first kiss, she felt another peck similar to the one she felt earlier on her right cheek. 

This was her second time being kissed, so she wasn't as shocked when she received her first one. But after being kissed twice, she looked like she was put under a spell, and just stared at me in a daze, as if she were wondering if this was a dream since it seemed too unbelievable. 

Chu~ 

And before she could think of anything else, she felt another moist, soft sensation on top of her forehead. 

She didn't even need to use her eyes to know that I kissed her once again, as it was the same feeling she had when I kissed her on her cheek.

She wasn't even shocked anymore, and just asked in a daze, as if she were talking in her dream

"The first kiss was for me being too late to agree...The second kiss was to congratulate me...But what was the third one for?"

"Well, after kissing you on your two cheeks, they turned bright red in colour from all the blood flowing there. 

But the top of your head was still pale white like usual, compared to the rest of your face, which was a funny sight to see, so I kissed your forehead to even out the red blush...Now your whole face looks red!" 

I confidently said, as if I kissed her with her well-being in mind.

"Actually, even after kissing you three times, there are still some pale spots left here and there, on your face. So let me help you out and get rid of that as well."

Chu~ 

Chu~

I then gently started to kiss her all over her face, be it her puffy cheeks, her small nose, her rather wide forehead, or even her grey eyes, which were in a reverie at the moment. 

I continuously kissed every part of her face, other than her tender lips that were slightly open, and made her entire face turn red.

"See, now your entire face is as red as a tomato." I said proudly, as if I were looking at a piece of art I made.

But for Astrid, who had just received her first kiss today, the stimulation of being passionately kissed all over her face until there wasn't a single place my lips touched, was too overwhelming for her and caused her knees to buckle and lose her strength to stand up.

She was about to fall to the ground, as if she had lost all strength in her legs. 

But before she lost all balance, I let go of her hands and firmly held her rather wide and mushy waist; which was so soft, that my fingers sinked into her skin, and supported her so that she wouldn't fall.

The way I held her waist was similar to how a male dancer would hold his female partner by the waist, just when he was going to lift her up in the air above him. 

But, since Astrid's waist was larger than a normal human girl's, I couldn't wrap my fingers around her to get a good grip and could only dig into her flesh, so that I could support her weight.

If it were a normal human, then there's no way they could have supported her entire weight like I was doing with just two hands because she was a minotaur. 

But since I got some perks from possessing a body that has a stronger bloodline, I could hold her with ease. 

The stimulation of my fingers digging into her meat on her waist, caused her to slightly moan out in a tone that made me wonder if it was from pain or pleasure. And I woke her up from her daze of being kissed all over her face and regained her senses, allowing her to stand up without my support.

The sudden pain also knocked her out of her dream-like state, and made her come back to her senses. She realised what I had just done to her, which made her look at me with an embarrassed and angry look on her face.

Out of anger, she even bent her head down and started swinging it towards me, clearly wanting to use her black horns on her head to poke me once or twice and teach me a lesson for what I did, which was quite amusing, as I didn't ever think that she would use them just like a cow would. 

Even now, she looked like a cow that wanted to put a few holes in someone who pissed her off. But I could also see that, she wasn't actually trying to hurt me and only wanted to knock me on the head using the blunt side of her horn.

But sadly for her, I wasn't going to give her the satisfaction of ramming me even one time to relieve her anger. 

While she bent down and maneuvered her horns to hit me in a way, that wouldn't injure me but would make me cry out in pain. I out of her expectations, put my hands up and grabbed those two black horns of her by the base. 

She cried out in surprise and shook her head violently to make me let go of her horns, but to her shock, I was firmly holding onto them in the same place, while I was rooted to the ground. 

This must have really surprised her, since she wouldn't have expected a human who should have less strength than her, due to her strong physique that came from her race, would be able to hold her down, like I was doing now.

When she finally stopped struggling after seeing that I wouldn't budge no matter what she did, I brought her face close to mine again, like I did before. But this time instead of holding her hands, I was holding her horns like I was some kind of matador.

"What do you want?!" 

She cried out in a panic, and then said, while averting her eyes from mine, with a shy look on her face

"...H-Haven't you already kissed me enough?"

"No, not really." I said without any hesitation.

"I could've kissed you a million times already. But it still wouldn't be enough to make me stop kissing these cute cheeks of yours." 

I let go of one of her horns and caressed her right cheek, as if I was tracing all the places I kissed on her cheek, which made her bite her lip and tremble.

"But right now, more than wanting to kiss your face, I want to know what about me you like, like I asked earlier?" I said as I stopped pinching her cheeks.

"Will you let me go if I answer your question?" 

Her grey eyes brightened, as if she finally found a way to escape from the wolf that thirsted after her.

"Of course. I'm a man of word."
