Pampered By My Three Brothers: The Return Of The Neglected Heiress - Chapter 510

Chapter 510: What have I done?
Lying on his side, his temple propped up by his knuckles, Zoren’s mouth curled into a soft smile. His fingertip traced the bridge of her nose down to the tip, earning an exhausted hum from her as she opened her eyes.

“Sleep,” he said quietly, smiling as he noticed her trying to stay awake for him. “It was a tiring… night.”

Penny blinked sleepily, sighing. “You should too.”

“I can’t.”

“Why?”

“Because I want to do it again.”

“Huhu,” a weak, dramatic cry escaped her lips. “What kind of exercise have you been doing?”

Initially, Penny had been the one afraid she would exhaust him. Had she known it would be the other way around, she wouldn’t have worried so much.

Zoren chuckled. “So, just sleep,” he said, his laughter faint. “Otherwise, I might keep you awake.”

“I’m tired…” she murmured, settling comfortably under the blanket, her bare skin pressed against the sheets. “Just don’t stay up too long.”

“Mhm.”

With a soft hum, she closed her eyes and drifted off quickly. Not that it took any effort—she was already too tired. It had been a long day, and now it was well past three in the morning. In no time, her breathing deepened as she slipped into a deep slumber.

Zoren, however, remained in the same position. He hadn’t lied—he couldn’t sleep, not because of restlessness, but because he wanted to feel her again, to be inside her warmth. Yet, he knew he couldn’t be selfish. She needed rest.

‘It was phenomenal,’ he thought, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. ‘When you wake up, you’ll have plenty of energy again.’

If Penny could hear his thoughts, she’d be mortified. He chuckled softly, then lay down more comfortably, pulling her into his embrace. Despite the blanket over them, their unclothed bodies were enough to keep them warm.

‘I still can’t sleep.’ Zoren slowly opened his eyes, gazing at her face. His lips turned down slightly, frustrated that he still couldn’t see her clearly.

It wasn’t because he hadn’t seen her face before—he had—but he wanted to truly see her, to take in every detail. He realized now just how much not being able to see her properly bothered him.

‘I want to see her… so badly,’ he whispered internally, his eyelids drooping as he gazed at her sleeping form. ‘I wonder… has this ever bothered you?’

The thought gnawed at him more now than ever.

With a mix of satisfaction and frustration, Zoren eventually drifted off to sleep.

—

A low groan escaped Penny as she slowly regained consciousness. Her eyelids fluttered, feeling the heaviness of her body and the soreness in her muscles. The sensation was familiar, like waking up after a night of heavy drinking. But she hadn’t had any alcohol the night before.

As the realization hit her, her eyes shot open.

“Oh, my god!” she blurted out, the memories of last night flooding back without warning. Her muddled thoughts were interrupted by a faint chuckle beside her. Turning her head, her jaw dropped as her eyes landed on Zoren.

“Good morning,” he greeted, lying on his side, knuckles propping up his temple. His slightly swollen lips were curved into a soft smile. The morning light filtered through the window, casting a warm glow that accentuated his divine beauty.

‘What a sight to wake up to,’ was the first thought that crossed her mind. ‘Did I really… last night… with him?’

As soon as the question formed in her mind, the memories from the night before came rushing back in vivid detail.

[Penny…]

[Hah…]

Her mouth fell open as she remembered the way he moaned her name between breaths. Her body shivered as the images of him kissing her skin, his hands exploring her body, and the way he claimed her as his, flooded her mind. She recalled how their heated bodies pressed together, sharing sweat and releasing frustrations neither of them knew they harbored.

She remembered everything—the pleasure, the pain, the moans, the hunger. Every moment played back in her mind, and as they did, another wave of heat washed over her. The soreness between her legs made her wince, forcing her to hold her breath.

“Are you okay?” The divine figure—this angel who seemed to have descended from heaven just to be with a mortal like her—hovered over her. His thick eyebrows arched, and his lashes fluttered ever so tenderly.

Penny opened her mouth, then closed it, her voice stuck in her throat. When she finally managed to speak, she nodded. “Mhm,” she forced out a weak hum. “I’m fine.”

“Are you sure?” he smiled, his face brightening as his eyes squinted.

“Mhm.”

“Okay.” Zoren lowered his head and planted a soft kiss on her lips. Penny froze as the brief contact felt more sensual than sweet. When he pulled back, a playful glint flickered in his dark eyes. Without saying another word, he leaned in and kissed her again—this time deeper.

A protesting moan escaped her, but she quickly froze again as his weight shifted on top of her. His knee gently nudged her leg aside, finding a familiar spot between them.

Uh-oh.

Panic swelled in her chest, and she hurriedly tapped his shoulder. Fortunately, he stopped whatever plans he had coming to a halt. She had only been awake for a minute—couldn’t he give her some time to process last night before anything else?

Zoren drew back slightly, tilting his head to the side, his expression innocent. Seeing that look on his face, Penny nearly wept.

“Don’t look at me like that!” she complained, almost on the verge of tears. ‘I’m weak!’

“You said you were fine.”

“I am… fine, but what is this?” she asked, exasperation in her voice.

His smile turned into a playful grin. “Make love to me again.”

She gasped, her heart skipping a beat as he planted a sweet kiss on her cheek.

“Can we?” he asked, pulling back to meet her gaze.

“Renren…” she whimpered, her lips quivering. “What have I done?”

His grin widened as he placed another kiss on her lips. This time, sensing she wasn’t protesting anymore, he kissed her deeper, and she welcomed it willingly.
