“Stop, hmph…, please…….”

The words of pleading poured out of Ria’s mouth. There was no way her body could withstand the relentless c*mming that had been going on even before she fell asleep. After the third ej*culation, while enjoying the afterglow inside her filthy c*nt, they reluctantly let go of her in response to her weak, sobbing pleas.

Their firm c*cks that had been relentlessly working within her continued to twitch, expressing a sense of lingering regret.

Collapsing onto the bed, Ria caught her breath and pushed herself up, her trembling arms braced against the bedspread. But when she finally managed to get off the bed and onto her feet, her body collapsed like a doll whose strings had snapped.

“Ria!”

As she to rise from the bed, her body crumbled, one foot failing to support her weight. Eden quickly caught her, and Rune, worried, immediately summoned a doctor. In the meantime, Eden carefully wrapped her in a gown and covered her with a blanket.

A middle-aged physician arrived promptly, and upon seeing Ria’s condition, he began his examination, shaking his head at the two men who seemed concerned.

“How much did you torment this delicate lady?”

Even with the doctor’s silent reproach, Eden and Rune urged him for information once the examination was over. Despite their anxious prodding, the doctor explained the situation, choosing his words carefully.

“Why did she suddenly collapse?”

“Is there something wrong?”

Upon concluding the examination, the two men persisted for answers. The doctor, unable to explicitly blame them, started explaining.

“Do you remember what I told you when I first examined the lady? That you need to be careful, with mental and physical stress, as her body might react sensitively. She needs to be careful, very careful

“I remember.”

“Ah, fortunately you still remember. I thought you hadn’t heard because the young lady has become like this. Hehe.”

The doctor said bluntly. The doctor scolded the two of them. But the only one who flinched at the scolding was the maid behind them.

The doctor was the only one in the duchy who could give such a reprimand to the master. It was possible because he had been with this family even before the duke was born.

“I noticed the relationship between the young lady and you Duke Rune during the treatment, but I didn’t mention anything about your relationship because no matter how healthy you are duke, I didn’t think you would torment the young lady to this extent.”

“……”

“Hehe. But I didn’t think you, and with the Duke of Carlisle, would torment the young lady for not one, but two days, so it’s more accurate to say that she’s been overworked.”

Hehehe. Rune and Eden were at a loss for words as the doctor laughed and rattled off the facts, until suddenly Eden, sensing the oddity in the doctor’s words, looked at Rune with a frown; the only thing he knew about her health was the leg that wouldn’t move.

“Try to be patient for the time being. Fortunately, the young lady’s delicate body is gradually recovering, but for now, it’s not an exaggeration to say that dealing with the two of you together is a bit much at the moment. It’s amazing that she lasted for two days.”

“Then, one at a time….”

Ha. Was the one in front of me not a person but a beast?

The doctor let out a sigh at the words he just heard. Now, the two dukes in his eyes looked more like beasts desperate to devour this young woman. The doctor thought he would have to add more herbs to see for young lady’s body in his mind and finally made a blatant remark with a smiling face.

“Are you in heat?”

But even though they had a conscience, both men avoided the doctor’s gaze. No, it seemed like they didn’t have any conscience at all. They didn’t even say that they would let her rest comfortably without any engagements. They couldn’t guarantee it themselves.

The doctor couldn’t help but let out a sigh and spoke.

“Until her body returns to normal, whether it’s two person or one, please refrain from having any vigorous activities for more than a day and let her rest for at least two days after having a night together.”

“Understood.”

“But please try to avoid having a night together as much as possible. Please.”

The doctor kept advising until the moment he said goodbye and the door firmly closed, shaking his head. He was truly worried about whether the delicate young lady could withstand those beasts.

Meanwhile, as soon as they were alone in the room, Eden turned to Rune.

“I think you have something to tell me.”

If he’d known she was weak from the beginning, he might not have held off on lusting after her, but he would have at least tried to be more gentle.

“Tell me everything about Ria’s condition.”

Looking at Eden’s stern face, Rune let out a sigh of surprise and embarrassment. Although Rune thought it was audacious of Eden to question him with such confidence, but since Ria had already accepted Eden, and since he had decided to protect her by joining forces with him, then it was only right that he should mention the nightmarish events of that time.

“… Why do you think Ria was able to come here, being she’s not a resident of this place?”

“I believe it was because of a gift from the first duchess.”

“Yeah. I happened to find it in the underground secret room. That gift was a mirror, and through that mirror, I saw her for the first time in another world.”

“And that mirror is what transported her?”

“In the method the Duchess’s diary taught me, the mirror seemed to act as a medium, so that must be right. Her diary told me that if I wanted to bring Ria here, I should mix her blood with mine and write her name on the mirror, and she would be bound to this place.”

“Then, did she weaken when she came to our world? Was it too much for her body?”

This time, Rune couldn’t answer immediately. He clenched and unclenched his hands in anxiety and unease, biting his lip. Then he let out a deep sigh and ran a dry hand down his face.

Just the thought of that nightmare-like moment brought him indescribable pain. His chest tightened, making it difficult to breathe, and there was a strong smell of blood tingling in his nostrils. At the end of it all, there was Ria, with her pale face and her delicate body covered in blood.

The reason he hadn’t brought up Lia’s condition until now was because of that very reason. He didn’t want to think about it. Because he couldn’t escape from the pain that came to mind when he thought about it. … His expression was so pained that even Eden, who was trying to understand him, couldn’t find the words.

“Ria… had a serious accident.”

Rune began, barely catching his breath between ragged gasps.

“The diary warned that if you bring someone to our place against their will using the method it teaches, tragedy will occur. So I tried to tell Ria everything and to beg her to come with me.”

“….”

“But I couldn’t, because I didn’t have a choice, Ria was dying!”

It was a cry tinged with pain and sorrow. Rune sank down onto the couch in the room, covering his face with his hands.

“I never thought that much blood could come out of her delicate body… never… damn it.”

It was a cry tinged with pain and sorrow. Rune sank down onto the couch in the room, covering his face with his hands.

No matter how hard he squeezed her hand that time, the warmth didn’t return. He hadn’t realized that there would be a moment when he would never see those clear, hazel eyes again. Rune raked a hand through his hair as he swore, gritted his teeth in frustration. Eden’s hands had grown white as he listened.

After stopping talking and just pausing to catch his breath, Rune opened his mouth again.

“The diary taught me how to meet her and knows how to save Ria. It told me to bring her here in our world immediately. But… it said that if she was in serious condition, she would be very weak when she got here.”

“……Was that why she couldn’t move her legs?”

“……Yes.”

“Why didn’t you tell me!”

Eden shouted lowly and grabbed Rune’s collar. Normally, Rune would have pushed him away immediately, but he burst out laughing filled with self-blame.

“I overlooked it too. I thought she would be fine because she started walking and getting healthier, and smiling. I got complacent and assumed she wouldn’t hurt anymore.”

Rune felt foolish of himself. He knew what it was like to be afraid of losing someone, but he acted carelessly in the face of reality. Eden clenched his jaw and released Rune’s collar.

He had to calm down. Ria was sleeping on the bed, so he couldn’t make any more noise. He kept reminding himself of that. If not, he felt like he was going to lose it and throw a punch or draw his sword.

.”A month. If we have a month, Ria will be able to walk stably.”

“…?”

” Then she’ll be healthier than she is now. No, we’ll make her that way.”

“To be perfectly healthy?”

“…I don’t know either. Even the doctor couldn’t guarantee it.”

Eden sat down on the sofa opposite Rune and pressed his temples. Yeah. Who could be angry with anyone? He’d been complacent, too. He should have learned more about her condition when he realized her legs weren’t moving, or at least when he set his mind to coveting her.

“From now on, let’s share everything about her.”

Eden let out a deep sigh.

“You’re not the only one who can’t live with the loss of Ria anymore.”

“….I know.”
