Chapter 69: Another Silent Night…?

“What do you suppose we do to catch up then?”

I pull open the curtains in my room and see the sun already starting to set. The tour of the entire estate took longer than I expected; even though I’m just a low-ranked noble, my estate is still larger than several houses combined.

“You’re letting me pick?”

“Its the least I could do for making you worry…”

Evelina grinned, sitting on the edge of my bed and crossing her legs; she already had an idea in mind.

“I’ll stay in your estate for tonight, then.”

“We won’t be heading back to the dorms?”

“Doesn’t matter, like we even care about attending classes at this point, unless you want a perfect attendance award. I don’t see the point compared to just self-studying.”

“You’re right about that, but why my estate? I could barely think of anything to do here.”

“You have your lover in your room, and you can’t think of anything to do?”

Evelina teased, lying down fully as she stared at the ceiling, twirling her hair in her arms. “Don’t be so meek.”

I laughed. Was she really serious? Is she suggesting what I was thinking she was suggesting?

For the heir of an entire duchy, she was very carefree about her personal life. Compared to other noble children in the academy, she had the fewest limitations of all of us.

Capable of doing anything she wants without any repercussions or regrets.

[Fabric Chains]

CLICK!

She looped a piece of fabric around my neck and pulled me toward her, making me fall on top of her on the bed. A satisfied smirk played on her lips as she enjoyed having me all to herself.

Succubutic magic, it seemed like the refining of the darkyte had finally allowed her to use the demoness’s powers herself, and not just the sheer energy.

“You’re being even bolder than me.”

“I’m making sure you don’t try to find another girl.” Evelina mused. “Besides, weren’t you the one who felt disappointed before?”

I grasped the chain that wrapped around my neck, snapping it away with a single flick of my wrist, an action that elicited a satisfied whimper from Evelina.

Her specific attraction to physical strength was showing even more here than it ever did in the past.

“Breaking my magic so easily like that…”

“You should have already expected that.”

Evelina no longer felt reserved or shy, no longer needing the help from succubutic magic or an excuse of handing out a reward to go all out.

She did say the two of us were now official; she had no reason to feel reserved anymore, especially after already crossing the line a few nights ago.

If anything, this allowed her to take a break from the busyness of preparations and to just allow her to get caught up in her emotions without restraint.

No point in feeling shy if the person in front of her already saw her at her most vulnerable.

And… considering we weren’t in the academy, we had no reason to watch out for anyone who might hear.

Servants could stay quiet with a single order. Students, however? Well… they spread rumours faster than Evelina could suppress them.

[Fabric Chains]

She cast again, red fabric wrapping around her fingers that connected to the curtain that I opened, and with a simple tug, closed it without any issue.

“Pay attention to me, enough that you’ll forget everything about her and the training.”

She cupped both of my cheeks, leaning closer as she kissed me directly on the lips, something that felt completely natural to her while still being fairly unknown to me.

Is this really happening…?

I thought…, but I tried my best not lose my mind, if she was this confident… it meant this already happened before, didn’t it?

All I needed to do was act the same as her and get caught up in the moment.

“I haven’t changed into my clothes since training yet.”

“Who cares about that?”

I shrugged off the last remnants of hesitation, my hands finding the hem of my sweat-dampened shirt from the day’s training. Evelina’s lips pressed harder against mine, her tongue slipping past to tangle with my own, tasting of sweet wine and unbridled want.

She moaned softly into the kiss, her fingers threading through my hair to pull me closer, as if she could fuse our bodies right there.

[Clear Mind]

“Did you just cast a spell…?”

“Y-Yes…”

I laughed weakly, even now, my mind still couldn’t fully handle intimacy with her at this level without any outside influence.

“Keeps me from passing out…”

Evelina tried to hold back a laugh from my reply. “And I thought you’re supposed to be the man in this relationship…”

“You’re just too perfect for my mind to handle…” I said with a breathy sigh.

“Careful with your words… I think you might accidentally make me develop a liking for masochists.”

“It fits you.”

“It fits me?”

“You’re sadistic, cruel, and beautiful. Traits that made me fall for you before I even laid my eyes on you…”

Evelina laughed, a low, throaty sound that vibrated through me. Her hands immediately grabbed my shoulders to flip our positions. Now she straddled me, her skirt hiking up her thighs as she pinned me down

“You really aren’t like most men… most would usually have the fantasy of conquering proud women like me, for you… Well, I guess you like both that and this dynamic.”

“I have an open mind, after all.”

KNOCK!

KNOCK!

KNOCK!

“Young master, we’ve prepared dinner for you and Lady D’Arclight.”

Miss Rose’s words echoed from the outside, catching the two of us off guard as they interrupted the intimate moment.

“S-Seriously…?”

Evelina turned her head, looking directly at the door with a scornful expression.

“Don’t your servants know that they shouldn’t interrupt their master without being called?”

I laughed at her reaction, sitting up from where she straddled me and grabbing her by the waist.

“Think of it as a blessing in disguise; it’ll be better to deal with dinner now than get interrupted with it later, don’t you think?”

Evelina gave a brief second of thought about my suggestion; she didn’t expect that I would suggest something like that.

But… I did switch from meek to dominant ever so often without any prior warning.

At this point, she considered it a fun bonus for a lover to have.

“Fine…”

She reluctantly accepted my offer, and the stark contrast between the Evelina of today and the Evelina of the past filled me with unrestrained satisfaction.

The contrast between her sharp exterior and her soft reactions was perfect…
