Getting spoiled in a woman dominating world-Chapter 65: Really jealous?
Chapter 65: Really jealous?
The living room was dimly lit and the only illumination was coming from the soft glow of the television screen.
Brandon is sitting in the middle as he leaned into Elize’s embrace.
She wrapped one arm around his shoulders as her fingers gently ran through his hair.
His head rested against her shoulder and his eyes were half-lidded as he lazily watched the screen.
On his other side, Ravene was also close with her body pressed against his as she wrapped both hands around his arm.
However, unlike Elize, who exuded maternal warmth and care, Ravene’s hold on him was firmer, almost possessive.
Her eyes flickered toward Elize every now and then, looking at the way the older woman cradled Brandon against her.
It’s not like Ravene dislikes Elize. In fact, she admires her.
But watching Brandon melt into her arms so naturally... made something inside her twist.
Meanwhile, Brandon simply sighed in contentment. "Mmm... this feels nice," he mumbled, snuggling a little closer to Elize.
Ravene’s grip on his arm tightened ’Nice?’
She resisted the urge to click her tongue.
Elize continued to stroke Brandon’s hair with a small smile on her lips "You were always a cuddly little thing, Kael..."
Brandon chuckled lazily, shifting slightly to get even more comfortable "Mhm... You’re just warm."
Ravene’s eye twitched slightly.
’I’m warm too.’
She glanced at him, debating whether she should pull him away.
But he looked so damn comfortable... with her.
Still, she couldn’t help but feel slightly irritated.
Is it because he was so naturally affectionate with Elize?
It’s not like he had never shown her affection... he had.
He kissed her, he flirted with her and they even had sex.
But this soft, unconscious need for closeness... is different.
This isn’t him trying to charm someone. This isn’t him playing around.
This was just him being himself.
And he was completely at ease doing it with Elize.
Ravene let out a sigh and shook her head slightly ’This is ridiculous. Why am I even thinking like this?’
Still, her fingers curled even tighter around his arm, pulling it closer to her chest.
Brandon turned his head slightly to glance at her "What’s wrong?"
Ravene hesitated for a moment before shaking her head. "Nothing."
Brandon smiled and adjusted his position slightly, lifting his arm so that she could snuggle against him more comfortably.
Ravene blinked in surprise and looked up at him.
He didn’t say anything; he didn’t tease her about being jealous.
He just... made space for her.
A strange warmth bloomed in her chest.
She let out a small, breathless laugh and finally rested her head against his shoulder "Idiot."
Brandon chuckled and kissed her head "Yeah, yeah."
Time passed as they continued watching the television.
---
A few minutes later, Brandon glanced at Ravene and saw that she is sleeping in his arms.
Elize also noticed this and spoke "Bring her upstairs, there is a free room there..."
With a nod, he gently moved her so she wouldn’t wake up and carefully took her in his arms in a princess carry before walking upstairs.
Reaching upstairs, he slightly kicked open the door and looked at the bed.
Ravene opened her eyes to look at him and Brandon was surprised "Aunt Rave..."
She hugged his neck tightly and Brandon couldn’t help but chuckle "Were you faking that?"
Hugging him tighter, she nodded his head "Mhm... I wanted to spend some alone time with you."
Hearing this, Brandon chuckled and gently put her down before hugging her closer "Were you jealous?"
She buried her face on his shoulder "No..."
Brandon patted her head teasingly "And now you are lying... why are you even jealous? I already told y-"
"Shut up..."
Hm? Brandon blinked in surprise hearing her tone.
She hugged him even tighterand her body trembled as her fingers twisted his fabric "Shut up... please... shut up..."
Huh? Brandon’s was surprised to feel her body trembling in his arms and quickly raised her chin from his shoulder to look at her face.
H-Huh? His heart nearly sank seeing the tears moistening her eyes "Aunt.. Rave?"
He gently cupped her face in his palms and quickly brushed the tears "What happened?"
She clung to him desperately "I am not jealous... I am scared.."
"Scared that you might stop loving me... if you spend more time with Elixe."
Brandon’s eyes quivered and he felt his chest tighten to see her crying like this.
She looked at him through her tear-soaked blurred vision "B-Because since we came here... your whole attention is on her... you are following her..."
She bit down her lips before continuing "You are looking at her affectionately. Why are you not seeing me? I am also here... Am I not your lover?"
"You love me too... right? so look at me too, p-please don’t ignore me."
Brandon’s throat tightened and a sting of guilt settled in his heart as he brushed the tears "I am sorry... Aunt Rave."
He had been so happy to see Elize again and so focused on catching up with her, that he failed to realize how his actions had been affecting Ravene.
He leaned forward to press a kiss on her lips "I am really sorry...."
"I didn’t know that my actions made you feel like that..."
She shook her head, forcing out a small, bitter laugh "I know it’s selfish. I mean... I know she raised you, and she’s important to you. And I don’t want to take that away from you..."
"B-But I want to be important to you too... I am scared you will stop loving me."
Her damp lashes trembled, and she sniffled softly, trying to hold back more tears.
Brandon closed his eyes for a moment before speaking "It’s not like that, Aunt Rave. Never think that I will stop loving you... you are very important to me and will always love you."
Looking into her eyes, he spoke "It is my fault for not giving you proper attention, so please forgive me... Ravene."
A rush of happiness filled her heart hearing him call her name and she again hugged him "I love you, Kael."
Brandon sighed in her arms and hugged her back "I love you too..."
Raising her head gently, she spoke "And... I am also sorry for making a tantrum out of this. I-I know I am being selfish..."
With a shake of his head, his eyes softened as he looked at her with affection "No, it’s okay... you were right."
She raised her hand to rub the tears with the back of her palm "...It’s kind of embarrassing," she muttered, glancing away.
"An old woman like me, crying like this..."
Brandon let out a quiet chuckle, shaking his head "You’re not old, Aunt Rave."
She pouted slightly "I’m older than you."
"And?" Brandon teased, tilting her chin up so she would look at him again. "You’re still beautiful to me."
Ravene’s eyes widened slightly at his words, and a soft blush crept onto her cheeks.
He leaned forward to press a kiss on her lips and she immediately reciprocated the kiss.
Brandon traced his fingers along her cheek, looking into her eyes. "What can I do to make up for the mistake I made, ma’am?"
Ravene blinked at him before glancing away shyly and her fingers gripped his shirt slightly.
After a moment of hesitation, she peeked at him through her lashes and muttered, "Cuddle with me in bed tonight..."
Brandon chuckled. "That’s all you want?"
She bit her lip and nodded. "...Mhm."
"Sure," he said with a warm smile. "Why not?"
Without another word, he reached out, gently pulling her down onto the bed with him.
"Mhm.." Ravene let out a soft yelp as he effortlessly pulled her into a comfortable position, her body pressed against his side.
Brandon pulled the blanket over them and wrapped his arms around her waist, keeping her close.
"...This is nice," she murmured sleepily.
She pulled down her cloth, revealing her bra and the deep cleavage of her breasts "Come here..."
With a smile, he moved forward, burying his face into her breasts.
Giggling, she entwined her legs with him before letting out a soft sigh.
He looked down at her in affection...
How could he not love a woman who literally cried because he didn’t give her enough attention?
