Chapter 15

While Marquis Rimor was still tossing and turning, unable to sleep, the door to his bedroom suddenly opened. Marquis Rimor was extremely tense. No one had ever invaded the bedroom of the head of the family in this manner. Thinking it might be an assassination attempt, he pretended to sleep to identify the intruder.

The person who approached after locking the door was someone he never expected. It was Vivian, the very person he had been thinking about continuously. Unaware that he was awake, Vivian pounced on him as she had previously. Marquis Rimor pretended to sleep and accepted her touch. Even while experiencing such an event, he wondered if it was a dream.

However, as the act progressed, he realized that the events with her were similar to the dreams he had had. When Vivian accepted him into her body at the end of the act, his suspicion turned into certainty. Knowing that the vivid and pleasant sensation couldn’t be an illusion, he immediately opened his eyes and seized Vivian.

This was the content up to the previous chapter.

The next day, after questioning her, Marquis Rimor discovered that she had been raping him every night. Vivian, trembling in fear of the punishment for her crime, was gently scolded by Marquis Rimor, who was inwardly pleased but outwardly told her not to do such things.

Then, claiming that Vivian seemed ignorant of how men and women should date, he said he would teach her, as someone older and more knowledgeable. Vivian accepted this, and under the guise of education, engaged in s*xual relations with Marquis Rimor.

Thus, Vivian, who visited the marquis’s estate daily for education, became pregnant with the marquis’s child, and Marquis Rimor whispered sweetly to her again, saying he would now teach her the duties of a married couple.

The story concluded with Marquis Rimor marrying Vivian and learning about marital duties every day.

Was it such a story…. 

Vivian was inwardly surprised. The scene of the two characters in the novel forming a relationship reminded her of herself and Cassius. Realizing this, Vivian felt her face flush.

“It’s a very satisfying ending. What do you think, Vivian?”

Cassius whispered in Vivian’s ear, having approached her unnoticed. Startled, Vivian moved back a little and looked at him.

“Oh, well…. I think it’s good. Haha….”

At her answer, Cassius’s eyes curved gently as he looked at her.

“Hoho, is that so? How would you feel if you met such an ending?”

“What? Oh, well, that…”

What should I say? Why was he asking such a question?

Vivian felt very troubled inside.

“Do you desire the generous treatment like the Marquis gave?”

“Oh, I-I think you’re already generous enough….”

“I see. Then, aren’t you curious about what the duties of a married couple mentioned here entail?”

He whispered in a voice low enough to tickle her ears.

“W-what?”

Vivian looked at him with surprised eyes.

“Before doing that…. There seems to be an interim process mentioned in this novel.”

Cassius smiled broadly and pointed to a passage in the book. There was a sentence stating that Vivian was pregnant with the marquis’s child.

“…….”

Vivian couldn’t grasp how to take this. Her mind felt like it was about to explode from the complexity.

“What do you think, Vivian? Huh?”

Unable to answer, Cassius placed his hand on Vivian’s thigh, which she had lowered her head onto. Somehow, his hand, which had become warmer, distinctly conveyed its heat even through the fabric covering her thigh.

“Well, that’s…”

What should she say to someone who openly suggested having a child? Vivian felt happy that the man she liked was subtly making such a suggestion, yet she was concerned that she wasn’t yet in any relationship with him.

“Vivian, please answer me.”

He leaned close, placing his lips near her ear as he spoke. Meanwhile, his hand on her thigh subtly caressed her skin, lifting her skirt.

“Well, uh, not yet…. We’re not in that kind of relationship…. It’s a bit….”

“Oh dear…, am I being rejected again?”

A voice tinged with disappointment echoed in her ear.

“No, it’s not that…. I just think it’s better for such things to happen between engaged couples or those in a relationship. Haha….”

Vivian awkwardly laughed, trying to stop Cassius’s hand from continuously lifting her skirt.

“Hmm…. We’re already more deeply entangled than an engagement, yet you’re concerned about such things?”

However, Cassius was not deterred by her attempts to hold his hand. Instead, he continued his actions until her skirt was lifted to her thighs, exposing Vivian’s white skin.

“Cassius! This is the library!”

Vivian urgently exclaimed, worried someone might see them. She twisted her body to escape, but since she was in a corner seat, the side opposite him was a wall. There was no way out.

“I’m well aware, Vivian. Then you must also know that one should be quiet in a library?”

Despite her protests, he didn’t flinch and shamelessly pointed out her behavior.

“…Cassius!”

“Shh! This library is used by the staff as well. You must mind your manners.”

“Ugh….”

While Vivian was caught in a dilemma, Cassius’s hand ventured to more intimate areas. He unhesitatingly slipped his hand inside her underwear, gently tracing the cleft with his fingertips.

“Hmm….”

As his touch reached sensitive areas, Vivian reflexively tried to stifle a sound.

“Yes. Very well done.”

Like a teacher praising a student, he complimented her. Meanwhile, his hand didn’t stop moving. As his fingers repeatedly traced the cleft, the moisture inside seeped out, wetting his fingers.

“Oh my, you were already this excited. My mistake for not noticing sooner.”

“No, it’s because of the novel’s content…, ah!”

She tried to explain helplessly. However, without waiting for her words, his caresses progressed rapidly. His thick fingers plunged into her without hesitation. The moist interior welcomed and tightened around his intrusion, continuously soaking his long fingers with moisture that seeped through her thin underwear.

“Ahh…. Cassius…. Not here….”

Vivian pleaded with a voice mixed with moans, holding onto his arm. Tears welled up in her eyes, clouded with pleasure.

“Understood. Since you say so, I’ll finish quickly.”

Cassius spoke, lowering his lips to the tears at the corner of her eyes.

“What? That’s not what I meant…. Not here…!”

Before Vivian could finish saying it wasn’t the right place, Cassius stood up abruptly. In an instant, he lifted her with both hands and bent her over the desk.

“!”

Realizing she was bent over the desk, Vivian’s face turned pale at the thought of what would happen next. Trying to escape the expected situation, she hurriedly tried to rise.

“Be still, Vivian.”

However, she was easily restrained by Cassius’s hand pressing gently on her back. In that position, her skirt was lifted to her waist, and the underwear clinging to her dampened private parts was pulled down. As the underwear was dragged down, the fluid stuck to it stretched along. Her exposed dampness met the cool air, causing her to shiver involuntarily.

“W-wait, this position is indecent!”

Vivian reached out, attempting to pull up her removed underwear.

“Haha, is it only the position that’s indecent? Isn’t it that you are naturally indecent, Vivian?”

Cassius grasped her wrist trying to pull up the underwear and pressed it gently onto the desk.

“Ah…!”

Vivian’s voice, filled with helplessness, echoed in the space. Soon, the wet flesh aligned with her entrance and pierced deeply in one swift motion.

“Ah!”

Vivian’s body twitched violently, letting out a moan.

“Phew…. Vivian, have you forgotten… where we are?”

Cassius asked, stroking Vivian’s chestnut brown hair.

“Ah….”

Realizing the situation from his remark, Vivian clamped her hands over her mouth. It was easier to hold back her voice than to stop his actions.

“Yes…. An excellent decision.”

Watching Vivian bent over in front of him, he smiled contentedly and began to move his hips.

“Ugh…! Uh….”

The act was fast and intense. Holding her waist firmly, he assaulted her like a raging wave. The blunt end filled her completely, pressing against her cervix and rubbing every sensitive spot, turning her vision white.

“Ha….”

Excited by the escalating act, Cassius exhaled a hot breath, feeling the rising heat. He gazed ecstatically at Vivian’s back, bent in submission to him.

Wearing a dress with an open back, her white skin peeked through her dark brown hair. As he ran his fingers over her prominently exposed shoulder blades, he felt the reality of possessing this beautiful woman. Absorbed in admiring Vivian’s form, he leisurely moved his hips, then suddenly grasped her delicate shoulders and resumed his storm-like ass＊ult. The abrupt, rough thrusts made Vivian’s body jerk, felt through their touching skin.

“Mm…! Huh…!”

As he suddenly pounded her insides, Vivian pressed her hands harder against her mouth. The desk beneath her shook violently in response. Not matching his height, Vivian had to stand on tiptoe to endure his rough onslaught. Swept away by the relentless pleasure, she couldn’t resist. Tears streamed down, soaking the hands covering her mouth.

To Vivian, the act focused solely on pleasure felt unlike anything a rational human would do. It was devoted entirely to exploring the body without any conversation.

It was like mating for reproduction, akin to beasts.

“Miss, wake up.”

Anna drew the curtains and woke Grace.

“Hmm, what time is it?”

Grace, who had been sleeping late, finally rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed.

“It’s already noon.”

“Is it that late already? Ah, I need to get up and get myself together.”

“By the way, it’s been four days already. Have you thought about Miss Vivian’s matter?”

“Hmm? Ah…. I’ve been thinking. How about having the knights kidnap Vivian? Then send her back to the baronet’s house.”

“Which knights?”

“Of course, our family’s knights. Who else?”

Grace looked at Anna as if asking why she was asking such an obvious question.

“Will those knights listen to you, or will they listen to the Marquis, the head of the family?”

“…Haha, of course, it would be my brother.”

Feeling embarrassed, Grace scratched her neck.

“Miss, really…. How did you become the top student at the academy?”

Anna murmured, looking at her with a face that found it a great mystery.

“Haha, I’m only good at studying, lacking in other areas. I’m quite the hopeless lady.”

“It didn’t seem like you were like this until recently. You’ve set up a strange persona.”

“Did you catch on? In <A Midnight Tryst,> the Marquis Rimor’s sister is depicted as a slightly eccentric lady, unaware of the ways of the world.”

“It doesn’t suit you, Miss.”

“Oh, really? Then I’ll stop.”

“So, do you really have another plan?”

“No, I’m leaving it as it is.”

“What?”

“Because Vivian doesn’t dislike it.”

“I see.”

“It’s just that I feel a bit uneasy.”

“Only uneasy?”

“To be honest, I kind of like it. No, a lot….”

“Of course.”

Anna nodded, acknowledging the consistency of the lady she served.

“Well, what can I do?”

“I don’t see any particular problem.”

“Right, you think so too, Anna?”

“…A salaried servant can only give the answers the master wants….”

“Anna! Don’t make me feel uneasy! It’s unsettling!”

“Haha, understood.”

“Sigh, I need to find some peace of mind.”

“Pardon? What are you planning to do?”

“I’ll go to the library and read 〈A Midnight Tryst〉 once. It might help me find peace of mind.”

“Alright, Miss. Please go ahead.”

However, Grace didn’t know then that something more stimulating than reading 〈A Midnight Tryst〉 awaited her.
