You need to know the message size to know that you have an entire message to actually deserialize. That requirement cannot be glossed over, although it can be handed to the library to worry about. What you have at the moment is simply: broken socket code - nothing to do with protobuf.
If you don't want to have to worry about that: just ask the library to read from the NetworkStream for you. When using the DeserializeWithLengthPrefix methods it deliberately reads the prefix bytes very carefully to prevent over-reading.
