“I, I suddenly don’t feel well… Ugh…”

Johan supported the woman who was about to collapse. She stuttered, saying she needed to return to the mansion.

After pondering for a moment, Johan said,

“It’ll be difficult to get to the mansion in that state.”

“But, but…”

“You can barely walk as it is.”

Even if he carried her or they took a carriage, there would be limits to hiding her condition in front of people.

Meanwhile, the energy pooling inside her stomach was jabbing at its surroundings like it was throwing a tantrum. It was a fierce energy, as though it was exacting revenge.

In fact, May looked much more distressed than usual when experiencing such difficulties. Several people were already glancing at her noticeably flushed face.

Johan clicked his tongue and held her in his arms. With that simple action, the small woman was easily concealed. Johan inwardly hummed at her unexpectedly petite frame. That energy seemed too malicious for such a body to handle.

He soon casually brought up what he had been thinking.

“Ask for help.”

May looked up at him. It was clear she was flinching with every contact. Her hands were now tightly gripping Johan’s clothes.

“What…”

Though she spoke, puzzled, her clouded black eyes held a strong, desperate energy. Even if she wasn’t conscious of it, she instinctively knew the most effective way to quell that heat.

But she ended up just mumbling. Seeing this, Johan said,

“It’s not something that will get better just by enduring it alone.”

“No, no… I have to endure it alone. This is like a strange illness…”

Of course, if she wanted to endure it, she could. But looking at the irritably squirming energy, it was clear it would be that much more painful. If she kept resisting like this and lost her reason, she might become uncontrollable.

For instance, she might seduce a stranger. Those symptoms were actually mischief intended to cause such troublesome situations.

Moreover, the sleep magic he had been secretly sending her way wasn’t working at all. Rather, the thought-form’s energy was acting more aggressively as the magic tried to intervene. Normally, it should have been intimidated by his magic based on holy power and tried to hide its existence. This was a sign that the situation was worse than ever.

‘It’s made up its mind.’

He didn’t know how it could exert such influence from such a distance, but…

Anyway, there was no choice for now. If they were at the mansion, he would have pretended not to notice according to May’s wishes, but now the method he had thought of was indeed the best option.

Let’s use the simplest method to cool down the heat. Having reached this conclusion, Johan spoke to the sniffling woman.

“Then let’s say I made an improper advance on my mistress.”

* * *

May looked up at the man holding her in his arms, exhaling heated breaths.

‘Making an advance…’

His characteristically indifferent, somewhat casual-looking face was staring down at her. As if he would carry out that ‘advance’ right away if May gave permission.

…Could it be that he had noticed her abnormal symptoms from the beginning? Somehow, Johan certainly seemed to know about the problem May was experiencing.

Was it that obvious? Embarrassment washed over her at the thought that all her lies might not have worked.

But…

‘Even if that’s the case, nothing changes…’

May repeatedly licked her parched mouth. She wasn’t unaware that the ‘help’ or ‘advance’ Johan spoke of meant their bodies would have to come together.

And that was something that shouldn’t be done. To share a bed with a man who wasn’t even courting her or her fiancé… It was something May had never even imagined.

Moreover, he was a servant May had employed.

“……”

But what was strange was that even though her mind had already concluded it couldn’t be done, she couldn’t readily voice her refusal. Her lips just moved helplessly, and her hands were tightly gripping the man’s clothes.

As the heat intensified, her control of her body passed from reason to instinct. Naturally, weak thoughts began to surface.

Thoughts about how painfully long it was to endure this agony alone.

‘This must be the situation the compass wanted.’

But… Johan was a good person, so wouldn’t it be okay? Her considerably weakened face looked up at the man.

Then his hand carelessly brushed May’s wet eyelashes. It wasn’t a particularly affectionate touch, but he skillfully wiped away her tears and said,

“God…”

“……”

“Sometimes arranges for me to help pitiful creatures by placing them in my path.”

“What…?”

“To my eyes, my current mistress looks exactly like that…”

Tap. She frowned at the light tap on the bridge of her nose.

“Accept it for my sake too. I’m quite devout, you know.”

Was there such a saying in the Sun God’s temple? Just as that question crossed her mind, he added with a smile,

“Wasn’t this advance quite good?”

“Ah…”

“It’s me who couldn’t pass by you now. So think of it as reluctantly accepting help that fell into your lap unwanted.”

May closed her eyes tightly after a moment of silence at his smoothly continuing words. When her black eyes opened again, the conflict within them had considerably lessened. She crumpled his clothes in her grip even more, and finally nodded slowly.

* * *

‘Is this the right thing to do?’

She might regret the choice she had made. No, perhaps she was already regretting it at this very moment. But May couldn’t let go of the hand leading her.

The moment they stepped into the unfamiliar room, their lips collided. Rather than feeling excitement about her first kiss, she was busy savoring his cool body temperature that was cooling her body’s heat.

“Mmm…”

Johan soothed her heated breaths while coaxing the body that clumsily clung to him, not knowing what to do.

Open your mouth more when kissing. Breathe through your nose, it’ll be more comfortable. The advice mixed in with every breath calmed her awkward movements.

Eventually, his hand stroked her leg. His touch continued to soothe her body as it flinched. Meanwhile, their tongues intertwined intermittently.

“Ah…”

As they kissed frantically like this, clothes were removed one by one.

Bare skin touched, and the tips of her br*asts were sucked into a hot mouth. When she made crying sounds, unable to handle the sensation, her lips were gently sucked again.

Johan took his time. And as things naturally progressed deeper, he stopped teaching and began to taste May’s body persistently. There was a certain roughness to his touch.

“Mmm… It’s strange, it’s strange…”

He was already tapping her cl*toris, which he had been teasing for a while. While saying shameless things about needing to suck her p*ssy sufficiently before insertion.

May, her face reddened, belatedly tried to hide her body.

“Just, just put it in…”

“You’ll get hurt.”

“But…”

To her hesitation, Johan spoke again like she was teaching her the method.

“Imagine my fingers are my tongue.”

Finally making May close her eyes, he put his lips to her ear and whispered. Imagine it.

‘…There’s no way that’s possible.’

Though she thought that, her body, sensitized by the first-time stimulation, soon followed his whispers. Like it was hypnotized.

The fingers touching her cl*toris soon felt like the tip of a moist tongue. Her own secretions felt like the man’s saliva.

Her p*ssy was soaked with his saliva. The hot tongue touching her cl*toris. …The movement was strong, from bottom to top, lifting it up.

“Ah, ah…”

Every time her cl*toris was stickily rubbed by his hand, the imagination intensified and her lower abdomen churned greatly. May tightly gripped his wrist, unable to soothe the increasingly strong throbbing sensation.

Then Johan pinched the protrusion he had been touching between his firm fingers. And as he shook it demonstratively, he said,

“It’ll feel better than you imagine.”

While deeply meeting May’s gaze, who had opened her eyes at some point.
