Her heart being crushed when she learned Seiden had gone to the Forbidden Land, and her helpless self instinctively running to him. She remembered her constricting breath at every moment, fearing Seiden might have departed to a place of no return, and her vision shattering white when she faced God’s voice. She perfectly recalled the tears that hadn’t fallen even when facing God but had welled up endlessly down her cheeks the moment she found him.

Bellota knew why Seiden had gone there. She also knew why his armor had been pierced near his chest. Felton had told her that Seiden had finally found the Demon God Book, and the answer it provided was the rockdragon’s heart.

Everything about Seiden ultimately came back to her. She could neither resent nor hate Seiden for breaking his promise again to save her. She simply……

Her heart ached dully. She remembered the words she had poured out while embracing him. During her ride to find him, she had been so worried about not being able to convey these words.

“I love you.”

The eyes that had been urging her stopped at the quiet confession that stilled the night air. Looking into those eyes that held only her, Bellota repeatedly whispered her eternal confession.

“I love you, Seiden.”

As soon as that whisper ended, Seiden cupped Bellota’s cheeks and kissed her. Bellota’s breath stopped, though she had expected it. They were still inside the temple. Moreover, this was her room. Yet here they were, kissing so consciously.

Though she knew God had permitted Seiden to her, or rather her to Seiden, a sense of blasphemy that she couldn’t quite get used to crept up her back. Bellota squeezed her eyes shut but slowly parted her lips. His waiting tongue skillfully delved inside, smoothly exploring and entwining everywhere.

Sounds of their entangled mixing echoed through Bellota’s usually quiet room. Bellota, who had always just received his earnest and persistent kisses without going further, gathered her courage and placed her hands on the shoulders of the man holding her face and waist.

At that, she felt the flesh that had been persistently savoring her mouth suddenly stop moving. Startled by that distinct sensation, Bellota quickly pulled her face back, and their tightly pressed lips regretfully separated.

“……”

Bellota looked at him with confusion and bewilderment mixed on her face. Seiden’s blood rushed somewhere at those pure, clear eyes containing the question of whether she had done something wrong. As she tried to move away from him in panic upon feeling it, he held her slight frame tightly and whispered.

“Won’t you let me stay just for tonight?”

Heat rose to Bellota’s blank face at those words. Just for tonight. Only today remained of Bellota’s stay in this room. Yet Seiden just stared persistently at Bellota with a shameless expression while saying such brazen words.

Only then did Bellota realize that something very hard was pressing against her thigh somewhere. Her breath stopped at the sensation that was surprisingly firm and massive. It was almost ridiculous that she had only noticed it now.

But they were inside the temple. Of course, they had made love inside the temple before. However, those times were unavoidable acts due to the curse. And now both of them were perfectly fine, and this was where she had lived for years……

Bellota, who was about to list the reasons why she couldn’t let him sleep there, discovered eyes looking at her with great patience and unconsciously opened her mouth. Those red eyes were smoldering with a heat that felt like it would burn. Bellota realized that Seiden was not in his right mind.

“Bellota.”

As proof, between his lips whispering her tantalizing name, passionate and hot breaths were flowing. Bellota knew well the agony of such a state. Of course, Seiden wasn’t under a curse or anything, but if she left him like this, so hardened……

Noticing that Bellota was hesitating, Seiden pulled her in deeper and spoke in an alluring voice.

“Saintess.”

The title that would no longer be used after tomorrow flowed out tenderly. Unlike that tenderness, his cunning hands had already slipped under her thin skirt, caressing her soft thighs. At that familiar yet strange sensation, Bellota’s back straightened sharply.

“But……”

Bellota barely whispered in a tense voice.

“Tomorrow morning, people will come to help with the ceremony……”

That was the excuse she barely managed to think of. Seiden swallowed his laughter discreetly and answered with his lips buried in Bellota’s nape.

“I’ll leave the tower before then. I swear.”

With each syllable he pronounced, his lips gently rubbed against the tender flesh of her nape, sending shivers down Bellota’s spine. Though her head was spinning, Bellota didn’t give up and calmly tried another excuse.

“Tomorrow is an important day…… We can’t make any mistakes. If we spend the night in this room today……”

Though Bellota was trying to speak as indirectly as possible, Seiden understood the explicit meaning in her words.

“I won’t overdo it.”

He gripped Bellota’s thigh gently and moved his head to meet her eyes.

“I’ll make sure you can still get up.”

Hearing his mischievous answer tinged with languid amusement, Bellota’s ears turned bright red. Simultaneously, dangerous curiosity that had popped up several times before and made her face hot resurfaced in her mind.

Could she take Seiden’s thing without being possessed by a curse? Remembering the enormous thing she had held in her hand, Bellota’s face suddenly turned pale and she shuddered.

“This really won’t……”

It was at that moment when Bellota, who had suddenly come to her senses, tried to shake her head, that Seiden slipped his arms under Bellota’s neck and knees and lifted her up. While Bellota let out a bird-like shriek, he laid her on the bed in the blink of an eye and climbed on top of her.

Bellota was now speechless as she looked at the handsome face gazing down at her. His eyes, filled with low excitement, had lost their amusement and turned serious.

Seiden admitted that his patience had worn thin. In just one more day, Bellota would become his woman. Just one day. However, waiting for that one day was more difficult than the 9 years when he could do nothing but watch her. He was impatient. Right now, he wanted to possess her.

“Just a little bit.”

Telling a blatant lie, Seiden lowered his head and kissed Bellota.

“Just a little……”

With the slow but much more persistent kiss than before, Bellota realized she could no longer stop him. Seiden was too strong to push away, and Bellota had to admit that she had become too soft. And that soft heart wasn’t unwelcome either.

Finally, when Bellota closed her eyes tightly in permission, Seiden, who had been staring at her intently with no intention of closing his eyes while entangling her hot tongue, became a bit more urgent.

“Mmnh.”

However, Seiden knew well that now there was no curse to bind Bellota while simultaneously assisting in their difficult lovemaking. Also, since this was an impulsive act, unfortunately, Hellers’ oil didn’t exist either. Therefore, Seiden delved into Bellota’s skirt, skillfully removed her underwear, and caressed her tensed p*ssy.

Despite being prepared, Bellota’s waist twisted at the embarrassing sensation. Seiden gently cupped Bellota’s trembling cheek with one hand, while his other hand explored the tender flesh that was slowly beginning to get wet.

When Seiden found the flesh faintly protruding between them and pressed it firmly with the tip of his thick thumb, Bellota’s tongue, drawn into his mouth, twitched. Seiden entwined that tongue and also heavily pressed and circled her cl*toris that was beginning to harden. Though the flesh was slowly getting wet from the contact with his callused skin, it was far from the state of being soaking wet like in the past days due to the curse.

From now on, he would have to repeat this exquisite labor of entering Bellota who was in such a state every time. Thinking of Bellota getting wet, whimpering, and finally lovingly sobbing while accepting him purely because of him and not some curse, made him feel his already swollen c*ck becoming rock hard and expanding.

“Hnng……!”

Finally, when Seiden’s fingers spread and delved into her wet entrance, Bellota’s hips bounced up dramatically. Seiden inserted two long, thick fingers, using them like supports to keep her trembling hips from moving. All the while, his tongue continued to circle inside Bellota’s mouth. As a result, Bellota could only twitch helplessly, bound both above and below.

Whenever Bellota was about to run out of breath, Seiden skillfully withdrew his tongue to create a gap for breathing while diligently expanding the space below. Each time the lewd, wet sounds that should never be heard in this room pierced her ears, Bellota felt like crying.

Moreover, what drove her crazy was her own body fully aroused by this act. The human body is utterly honest, and even though their past lovemaking had been due to a curse, it couldn’t erase those experiences. Her body simply knew desperate desire, knew exquisite pleasure, and knew the man before her.

When she felt that body desperately wanting to accept that man again, unprecedented shame and excitement rushed in simultaneously. She only wished that Seiden would never know this side of her. That was all she wanted, but unfortunately, from her quickly moistening p*ssy, Seiden must have noticed it too.

Seiden finally released Bellota’s tongue and kissed her lips and cheeks all over while whispering.

“Bellota……”

His voice carried something hot that seemed ready to explode at any moment. The center of Seiden’s pants was becoming stained with transparent liquid seeping from the tip of his gl*ns. His hand movements quickened with excitement that couldn’t be immediately relieved.

“Ah……!”

Bellota hugged his shoulders and buried her flushed face while curling up her body. The small room that had only ever been filled with clear, faithful prayers became filled with sensual sounds, and the slender body clinging to his firm shoulders shuddered greatly.

Soon, transparent sticky fluid flowed between the roots of his fingers buried in that tight place. Though her trembling body went limp, Seiden didn’t stop there and continued to probe and rub the wet inside, expanding the space further.

“Hic, Seiden……”

Finally unable to endure his persistent caresses, Bellota grabbed his shoulders first. Seiden also let out a low sigh at her heated voice calling his name.

“Not yet……”

He tried to say that, but Bellota shook her head.

“Take them, out……”

At that calm request, Seiden reluctantly withdrew what was inserted. Would it be alright to put it in now? While he was briefly considering this, Bellota hesitantly reached out and caressed the thing protruding through his pants.
