<Episode 24>
Solomon-sama took the soup exactly as it was served.
After the meal, he seemed to be no different from usual, which made us a little uneasy.
But according to the Duchess of Beardsley’s explanation, it is supposed to be slow-acting, so it should be fine.
“Chelsea.”
As I was about to return to my room to get ready, a voice called out to me.
When I turned around, I saw Solomon-sama looking at me with a thoughtful face.
“……what do you want”
His shapely eyebrows droop as me replies in a flat voice.
He almost looked down as if frightened, but his lips tightened and then she locked eyes with me.
“We need to talk.”
We haven’t had a proper conversation since their argument in the carriage.
I think he want to make up before tomorrow’s duel.
“I understand. I will visit your room later.”
“Uh! Thank you.”
I smile at Solomon-sama, who is clearly relieved.
Thinking that the woman in front of him would have no idea that she was making an evil scheme, saying, ‘Just as well’.
She lean in close and whisper in his ear, “Please leave the door unlocked.”
Solomon-sama’s cheeks flushed red as he realized that I was referring to the door connecting the couple’s bedroom.
“I, I understand. …I won’t do anything strange, so come without worry.”
(No, I’ll wake you up.)
She smiled and did not reply.
No beast would intentionally show its fangs to alert prey on the verge of being caught in a trap.
Then she takes a bath and is polished to a shine by the duke’s talented lady-in-waiting.
She wore a sexy undergarment called “Maiden Armament” and a sheer gown over it.
I knock on the door, ready to go.
I waited a while and got no response, so I tried again. This time more forcefully.
“Solomon-sama?”
“…… Sorry, Chelsea. Can you give me a minute?”
A muffled voice returns.
“Why?”
“I’m not feeling too well. I need an hour, no, maybe thirty minutes.”
He told me to wait, and of course I’m not going to wait. I pushed the door, ignoring the restraining order, and it opened without a moment’s hesitation.
“Wait.”
Solomon-sama’s face is upturned as he hurriedly holds the door open.
His breathing also seems to be a little erratic.
And as a sign that the aphrodisiac is working, his eyes and hair have already darkened in color.
Solomon-sama’s eyes widened as he slipped into the room through the gap.
“Chelsea …… what an outfit.”
I don’t want to be surprised in a thin gown.
If the wrapping paper makes the recipient happy, there is no room for the gift inside.
When I put my hand on the ribbon at his waist and untie it, Solomon-sama gasps and exclaims.
I took a step forward as he took a step backward.
Open the front extraordinarily slowly.
“It’s no good.”
he mutters in anguish, but his gaze never leaves me. The gown falls to my feet.
“What about …………?”
After a long silence, a stunned voice escaped Solomon-sama’s mouth.
His face is averted so I can’t see what expression he has on his face. Still, I felt his gaze piercing me.
(How embarrassing ……)
You’ve made up your mind. But still, the sense of shame won’t go away.
That’s because I don’t think this would make me look like a slut.
And that’s one of the reasons why I don’t think it looks good on me.
The black bra has shallow cups and only the lower half of the cloth.
The panties also have a very small cloth area and are fastened with strings on both sides.
The knee-length slip worn over it was also black and of a thin fabric, with a hint of underwear showing through.
The front of the slip was split and fastened with a ribbon below the breasts.
If she moved even a little, she would be exposed from the belly button down.
Even the pretty garter belt with lace fabric just adds to the embarrassment now.
Mrs. Koh said that it is important to wear it with confidence, that it suits you better than anyone else, but I can’t.
I don’t have a particularly good face or style. I’m just average people at the best.
The thought of exposing my half-nakedness before the One who, like Solomon-sama, is beautiful in every way, from the tips of my toes to a strand of my hair, makes me want to run away right now.
But I can’t just run away from this. It makes no sense to wear even sexy underwear, knowing that it doesn’t suit me.
“……?”
The moment I try to look up, shaking off my shame, my body floats in the air.
Solomon-sama picked me up with his hands behind my knees and walked with large thighs.
He threw me on the bed with a little violent motion even for him.
After a mild shock, a shadow looms over the top before the confusion subsides.
He poked his hands on either side of my face and looked down at me from directly above.
Before I knew it, Solomon-sama’s hair and eyes had turned jet black.
The pitch black eyes as dark animals, reflect me.
The glistening eyes and rough breathing made me feel as if I were about to be preyed upon by a large predator.
“Chelsea……”
Solomon-sama’s beautiful voice was harsh and gravelly.
I felt even more like prey when I saw the gurgling and gulping up close.
His eyes, shining with anger and excitement, look at me.
“Why did you come to my room dressed like this, unprotected? Do you really know what you’re going to do to me now?”
“Uh, Of course…….”
Even though I was not intimidated, I was pressured by the power of Solomon-sama.
His voice was flat, and there was no trace of his usual gentleness. This chipped away at my excitement.
“Here.”
“Huh?”
A large hand touches my lower abdomen.
As it was pushed gently, an unknown sensation came to me along with fear.
I felt a creepy sensation as if my spine had been stroked up.
“Are you going to accept this from me?”
As he said this, Solomon-sama pressed his hips against my legs.
The hot, hard feeling is far greater than I imagined, and I feel like I’m going to stop breathing.
Seeing me gasping for air, Solomon-sama lowered his eyebrows as if he were troubled.
“……I knew you were scared.”
“??!!”
I grab Solomon-sama’s arm as he tries to raise myself stand up.
“I don’t care if it’s scary or painful.”
When I declared this, Solomon-sama’s eyes scrutinized me grimly.
“I’m not good. I don’t want you to feel pain. ……”
“I don’t think this is the time to be talking like that. The duel is tomorrow, remember?”
“What does …… have to do with this?”
“There is. Your mother-in-law told me.”
“??!”
“You might be able to use magic, right?”
Solomon-sama put his hand to his forehead and let out a sigh.
Eyes downcast, he muttered, “I’ll give Chelsea a disservice …….”
“Why didn’t you tell me something important like this?”
“I’m not going to take advantage of you. I will not let your precious first time be scattered for my personal convenience.”
He love me. This is conveyed in his eyes and words.
That’s why I am tremendously itchy.
“Even if I want to dedicate it to you?”
“…… Chelsea, stop it!”
His face contorts in anguish as me reaches out to Solomon-sama’s chest.
“I don’t want to hurt you ……, I love you ……!”
“Me too”
Grab him by the chest and yell at him at close range. Solomon-sama’s eyes, which had been painfully narrowed, widened.
“I love you too and I don’t want you to get hurt. ……!”
“Chel, Chelsea……”
Solomon-sama’s hand, which was hanging on his shoulder to pull him off, slips down.
He looked at me with confused eyes like a lost child.
“I care for you as you care for me.”
His voice is snatched. The back of her eyes are burning, and she complains of the urge to cry.
“How can you expect me to sit idly by while someone I care about might throw a stone at me? Why do you tell me not to do anything ……?”
Tears spilled from my eyes.
“Chelsea!”
With distorted vision, Solomon-sama is panicking.
I shook my head and pushed him away as he came to embrace me with both arms.
“No, no, no.”
I beat my chest and refuse, but he hugs me with a strong force.
“You say you don’t care, but I won’t allow anyone to throw stones at you. ……!”
“Yeah, I’m sorry. Sorry, Chelsea.”
I spewed out a few words in a ragged, tear-stained mess.
I was like a child throwing a tantrum, and Solomon-sama hugged me and kissed the corners of my eyes and the tip of my nose to appease me.
“I’m mad at you!!”
“Yeah, sorry…”
Solomon-sama hugs me and rubs my cheek.
“Thanks you …….”
He presses his forehead to mine and murmurs as if biting down my lips.
Even Solomon-sama’s eyes, smiling happily, had a thin film of tears.
He stroked my cheek lovingly and tilted my face.
A beautiful face with downcast eyes slowly approached me.
“I’m glad I fell in love with you.”
She mutters a sputtering exhale and then our lips meet. The slightly rough texture was irresistibly lovely.
