“Huh, huh.”

Rosé ran the length of the main house in twenty minutes.

Out of breath and shaky, she turned the key in her hand and the back door to her home opened.

And she ran again. Running with a jar of honey that weighed as much as a boulder felt like every muscle in her body was contracting.

Huh, huh……. She ran through a maze of corridors and rounded a corner, breathing heavily. Suddenly, a man’s black shoes with a silver buckle came into view.

‘Ah, no!’

I’m going to run into him. Before she had time to think about who it was, she ducked to the side, but the man’s upper body was wider and stronger than she expected.

She slammed into the man’s body and fell to the ground, the impact popping the lid off the honey jar.

How did she manage to hold the honey jar in her arms without dropping it…….

‘No…….’

The honey in the jar began to soak her body without stopping. From her chest to her waist, the honey soaked through her clothes, revealing her radiant and flawless skin.

Rosé’s already large br*asts were accentuated by her w*t clothes. What’s more, the fabric clung to her n*pples, showing off her reddened ar*olas and n*pples.

As she panicked and raised her upper body, the honey began to drip, this time down her thighs. The honey-soaked skirt fluttered in the wind, shrinking into the shape of Rosé’s mound.

Finally, as the marks of an axe were carved like straight lines on the rock, the man who had been observing turned his head abruptly.

He was Silvio Ramford, the master of this castle.

“Are you okay?”

He was heading to the storeroom to get some books, and he didn’t expect to run into her as soon as he turned the corner.

Earlier, he had scanned her body in surprise, but now he knew he shouldn’t look at her.

‘She looks like the maid I saw in the backyard before.’

Silvio tried to maintain a composed voice. He had to repeatedly suppress the lascivious image floating in his mind.

Back then, he didn’t notice much just by looking at her face, but now he realized that she was an incredibly attractive woman.

Silvio wanted to tightly shut his eyes and stared aimlessly into the air, trying to hold back his desires.

“Um, I am Rosé, who works in the kitchen, Your Grace. I am on my way to the dining preparation room….”

“I think it’s better to tidy up first.”

Silvio, who was only looking ahead, rubbed his forehead. He almost turned his head while speaking. Damn it.

“Yes, yes! Uh, I’ll tidy up quickly…!”

Rosé lifted her foot to stand up. But if she had known that the floor was slippery, she would never have done that. Hasty actions always lead to mistakes.

“Ah!”

Her body swayed. Silvio, who had been staring at empty space until then, didn’t realize that her body was coming towards him like a falling leaf.

So, in the end, it came to this.

“Ouch!”

“Ugh…….”

Rosé landed on Silvio’s chest as she slid to the floor.

There was no way to explain in detail how the two ended up in such a miserable state. There were always unscientific things happening in life.

As Rosé’s body was covered in honey, Silvio’s body also became moist.

Above all, a drop of honey formed at the tip of Rosé’s n*pple and fell onto Silvio’s lower lip.

Silvio could only confirm the identity of what touched his lips with his eyes. His vision was filled with dimly lit ar*olas and er*ect n*pples.

Holy sh*t,

“Sorry, Your Grace! I’ll get up quickly!”

“What the hell, ugh.”

Frantic, Rosé placed her hand on the ground.She tried to get up, but instead, she slipped again.

“Haaah!”

While tumbling down, her br*ast pressed against Silvio’s face.

“Hnng….”

Ugh, I shouldn’t feel this way, but against my better judgment, my body slowly grew languid.

As soon as Silvio’s breath touched her, her heart started pounding, and down below, it felt like everything was trembling. She wanted to swallow the branch she was clinging to and spread her legs wide, rushing towards the Duke.

“Ugh, f*ck.”

Silvio felt a sense of humiliation from Rosé, who started sobbing against him.

Not only was it the first time he had ever been under a woman, but he had never been in such a sticky embrace before.

For 18 years, the only contact with a woman was when he handed over documents to the maidservants. And now he’s being pressed up against like this? Damn it.

“Get out of my way. Ugh, just stop!”

Impatient, Silvio grabbed Rosé by the shoulders and shoved her away. The force of his grip brought Rosé to her senses.

The realization of what she had done was plainly visible on Silvio’s face.

She rubbed his cheeks and nose with her own br*asts… and the Duke’s face was covered in honey.

That it didn’t diminish his beauty in the slightest was something to be admired, even in this situation.

“I-I’m sorry!”

Rosé scrambled to her feet. She had gotten the hang of it, and this time she didn’t stumble.

Silvio followed suit, pushing himself up against the wall. He pulled a handkerchief from his vest pocket and began to wipe his honey-soaked face with his trademark graceful gestures.

Rosé’s throat tightened. His gentlemanly bangs had fallen back from the honey, revealing a rugged young man’s face, the kind you’d see in a martial arts ring.

That man had been celibate for 18 years. He looks like he’s impregnated all the maids in the manor with his unorthodox breeding practices.

‘Wow, that’s crazy.’

The maids in the laundry room seemed to be gossiping about the Duke.

Even though he was wearing a black frock coat, his thick muscles were still visible…. Rosé wondered how much more impressive he must have been during his active years on the battlefield.

His six-pack abs were visible through his white linen shirt. Thanks to the honey smeared on the his clothes, she could see how solid each of those muscles were.

“How long are you going to keep doing this?”

Silvio’s cold voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts, causing Rosé to nervously bite her lip. It felt like she was drooling.

“Go.”

Silvio pointed down the hall with a fierce glare. He held back the urge to tell her to go f*ck herself.

Rosé’s shoulders twitched and she looked at Silvio like a startled rabbit before quickly bowing her head.

“I’m sorry. I’ll come back later to clean. I’ll leave now!”

And with that, she turned her back and ran down the hallway where Silvio had come from. Her w*t shoes made a squishing sound as she ran.

Silvio watched her until she disappeared from sight.

She was a reckless maid who had even thrown herself at him when they met on the first floor.

‘It must have been her.’

When he first saw Rosé from behind, he knew who she was.

Her pretty face, which any man would have been captivated by, her orange hair that smelled nice and was disheveled, and her big and beautiful brown eyes that looked like they were shining like stars.

There is only one reason why a handful of beauties would come down to Bistiman in that empire.

‘They’re crazy enough to try and match me with a young woman.’

When he left the estate, power-hungry relatives often sent him women. The idea was to get him out of his villa and out of the house somehow.

If it worked, they could put pressure on the imperial family. If he had children, they would claim them as heirs and push back against the emperor.

But Silvio was not interested in politics, and he was tired of women. Besides, she had no sense of propriety to try to seduce him with her body in the first place.

As it was, he was already bogged down by the borders of Heriana Forest. Frustrated, Silvio loosened the tightly fitting cravat.

Unlike last year, which had been calm and uneventful, this year did not bode well.

•·················•·················•

Arriving in the dining room, Rosé rolled her eyes and scanned the room.

Despite the awkward situation with the Duke, I managed to put on a smile, but unfortunately, there was so little honey left that I could barely taste it after scraping the bottom of the jar.

Just as she was wondering how to resolve the situation, Alfred, the butler, noticed her and approached.

Up close, he took in her attire and narrowed his eyes in disbelief.

“How in the world did you… come here dressed like that?”

“I apologize. Butler, it’s just that…….”

Rosé told Alfred everything, from Kellan’s request to her encounter with the Duke.

Every time Rosé’s lips moved, Alfred’s mouth opened and closed like a clam.

‘How could the Duke, who was so disgusted with women from the manor…….’

The fact that she was from the manor was something Alfred had secretly suspected.

‘Every year at this time, the manor sends all sorts of women,and most of them, like Rosé, are stunningly beautiful.

But the Duke always turned them away with a slap on the wrist. Given his past behavior, what had just happened was bizarre.

The Duke had let Rosé go. No questioning, no interrogation. Alfred’s mouth, which had been hanging open, slowly closed. He rubbed his chin and thought.

‘I see a possibility.’

Whether it was a conscious act or not, the important thing was that the Duke had tolerated Rosé for a time.

It could be a whim of the Duke, but Alfred preferred to call it a possibility. A possibility that the Duke would once again allow a woman into his life.

‘I’ll have to inform the manor sooner or later.’

Alfred Algroin. An Algroin who has served the Ramford family for generations, he currently plays the role of a trustworthy but astute butler, when in fact, he is a cunning strategist planning to send the Duke to the estate.

She can restore the lost time of His Excellency Duke Silvio. Alfred didn’t doubt it.

“Butler?”

Rosé gently called Alfred, who was lost in thought. He collected his thoughts and looked at Rosé. A faint smile appeared on his lips, different from a moment ago.

“You came to deliver honey instead of Kellen. You have a fine sense of responsibility for a maid.”

“Oh, no. I’m just…”

“That’s why, Rosé. Why don’t you start working at the main castle next week?”

Main castle. Main castle. Main castle…….

Alfred’s honey-like sweet words lingered in Rosé’s ear, leaving her still in disbelief with her mouth agape, when suddenly the system window popped up.

〈SYSTEM〉 Congratulations! You have been promoted from the ‘maid’ job to the first level.
Your title ‘useless junior maid’ has been changed to ‘intermediate maid.’
Your salary has doubled.

Alfred took the sticky honey jar from her and said,

“Tell Kellen that the honey has arrived safely. But starting next week, you’ll be reporting to the main castle.”

Rosé nodded her head as if possessed. Then Alfred lightly patted Rosé’s shoulder.

“I hope you do well, Rosé. Especially with our Duke.”

Rosé, who did not know Alfred’s secret intentions, smiled with her lips pursed while in a daze. Her salary had doubled. No, it was more than that.

‘Main castle…!’

Rosé and Alfred had different definitions of salvation, but they had only one desired outcome: to conquer Silvio’s season.

“I will work hard, Master!”

She became a mid-level maid with the qualification to enter the Duke’s residence. Now that she could legally encounter the Duke, she was one step closer to becoming a hero.

‘S*men absorption!’

Silvio Ramford. She would suck his s*men like a mosquito sucking blood.
