22. Reconciliation (3)

“Huh?”

Why?

Why is Master here now?

Her shimmering Jewel Eye shook uncontrollably.

Lily’s mind was filled with question marks from Master’s unexpected ambush.

“Huh? Huh?”

Too flustered to react properly, Lily could only stammer.

Jane, who had deliberately left her disheveled hair untidy, slowly entered the room.

“What a relief.”

“Wh-why? Huh? What? Huh?”

Jane had clearly said she’d return late in the afternoon before leaving for work.

So why was she already back home, swinging open my door?

This had never happened before.

Lily couldn’t easily regain her composure.

At that moment, a chilling breeze swept over her stiffened little body.

“Eeek!”

Startled by the cold sensation between her thighs, Lily quickly scrambled under the blanket.

Like a broken toy, she kept repeating the same words.

“Why? Why? Why?”

Her pale face turned beet red as if about to explode.

Tears welled up in her beautiful yellow diamond eyes.

Seeing the exact reaction she’d anticipated, Jane swallowed her laughter.

Without a word, she slowly approached Lily and sat on the edge of the bed.

-Swish

As Jane’s hand reached out, Lily tightly shut her eyes.

But what Jane picked up was the crystal ball rolling on the bed.

“Huh?”

The crystal was still warm from Lily playing with it earlier.

Enjoying the lingering warmth of Lily’s body heat on her palm, Jane spoke.

“You contacted me.”

“Huh? Contacted you? Me? When?”

Lily’s voice was thick with moisture as she asked.

Jane didn’t answer.

Instead, she activated the slightly lukewarm crystal.

-Vrrrm

“!!!”

The communication crystal, which Lily thought had run out of magic, was working perfectly.

Witnessing this, Lily gaped silently in shock.

Her mind went completely blank from the surprise.

“No, no, why? I didn’t charge it? Why? Why?”

No matter how much she denied it, Jane had already received the call and returned home.

And she’d seen everything, including Lily desperately masturbating…

“Kyaaah!”

Lily pulled the blanket over her head.

She’d already shown her naked body and more embarrassing sights.

But shame was still shame.

Jane didn’t stop Lily from writhing in embarrassment.

Instead, she let out an exaggerated sigh for her adorable slave to hear.

“Haaah… Really, really relieved.”

Hearing the sigh, Lily stopped struggling.

It was unusual for her usually reserved Master to express emotions so openly.

“Jane…?”

Lily peeked out from under the blanket with just her eyes.

Her Master sitting on the bed was clearly relieved.

“Umm…”

Rolling her eyes, Lily eventually crawled closer on her knees.

“Y-you were worried?”

“Yes, very.”

“Ahh, I didn’t mean to contact- I thought the magic was gone…”

Her flushed cheeks still burned.

Her darting eyes were filled with deep guilt.

“Sorry for worrying you, Master.”

Finally, an apology escaped Lily’s lips.

Jane wanted to laugh out loud.

But she held back a little longer.

Truthfully, Jane had been acting according to plan since entering the room.

Activating the communication crystal, sighing while rubbing her chest.

Her gaze, facial expressions, large hand gestures, and maintaining just the right distance.

She used every possible nonverbal cue.

Adding a gentle tone only for Lily, speaking softly.

Using simple words to emphasize how shocked she’d been.

Having maximized Lily’s guilt, Jane smoothly moved to the next stage.

“Nothing bad happened, thankfully.”

She tactfully ignored the fact that she’d caught Lily masturbating.

Instead, she reached out hesitantly before stopping.

“Ah…”

Lily, who’d been staring at Jane’s hand, let out a small sigh.

Then she brought Master’s hand to her cheek.

Though damp with sweat and hotter than usual,

the familiar scent of Master remained, making Lily close her eyes slightly.

The tense atmosphere grew somewhat comfortable.

Seizing the moment, Jane whispered to Lily.

“Lily, I want to apologize again.”

“Huh?”

“I’m sorry for playing such a harsh prank last time.”

Remembering when she’d fainted at the trading company, Lily felt a lump in her throat.

But Lily also wanted to reconcile.

Besides, she didn’t want to ruin this tender atmosphere.

“That’s already in the past.”

“But will you forgive me?”

“I’d already let it go in my heart.”

“What a relief. That was actually what worried me more.”

Lily exhaled comfortably.

Though her lower half felt empty, she liked this heartwarming atmosphere.

But this too was part of Jane’s plan.

She’d stirred guilt to make Lily feel sorry.

Then apologized for past events to dissolve lingering resentment.

Now all that remained was punishment.

Since entering the room, Jane had never said she wouldn’t punish Lily for making her worry.

She’d only expressed relief that things turned out well.

Lily alone had assumed everything was resolved.

Of course, suddenly declaring punishment would make Lily flee.

So instead, subtly, by touching on her shame, in Lily’s favorite way.

“By the way, Lily. Was masturbating fun?”

“…Huh?”

“You didn’t notice me entering the shop, didn’t hear me open the door.”

“Huh? Ehh?”

“Shaking that cute butt, creak creak. And calling my name while doing it.”

This sudden drift left Lily speechless.

Hadn’t the mood been good just now?

Jane loved hearing Lily’s dumbfounded voice as she was verbally pummeled.

So she pushed further.

“I clearly saw you desperately calling my name while rubbing yourself.”

“Ahh, wait, that’s…”

Jane whispered while subtly removing the blanket covering Lily’s lower half.

Having put away her hard shield and sharp thorns, she gently tickled Lily’s softened heart.

“As I always say, Lily, you’re a pervert.”

An arm reached out and pulled Lily’s slender body close.

“So you didn’t notice the communication crystal was connected while masturbating, nor me coming up.”

Lily felt like she’d been caught in a spider’s web.

The more she struggled, the stickier the threads became.

“Hehe.”

Actually, Jane had deliberately silenced the shop’s doorbell.

For someone who’d cast the spell, it was simple.

But unaware of this, Lily fell into the illusion that she’d been too engrossed in vulgar masturbation to hear the bell.

-Mwah

Jane kissed Lily’s eyelid.

Lily trembled violently.

She imagined a cat toying with its prey.

“Why so shaky, Lily? I’m just curious.”

Now Jane tossed the damp blanket aside.

Instead, she sat Lily on her lap and hugged her tightly.

“What were you thinking about while masturbating? Hmm? My cute little pervert?”

“N-no…”

“What? Tell me, Lily. What’s not?”

“Not… a pervert…”

Even Lily knew her words lacked conviction.

She immediately regretted it.

Jane’s lips curled into a soft smile.

A beautiful smile, yet somehow terrifying.

“Let me organize my questions. Why did you masturbate?”

“Well… Ah! Mandy! I was going to feed Mandy!”

“Oh? It is about time what I’d stored would run out.”

“So I had no choice but to masturbate.”

Seeing a possible escape, Lily began scrambling for excuses.

But Jane crushed her pathetic struggles by slightly shifting the questioning.

“Next question. How was this ‘no choice’ masturbation? Did it feel good?”

“N-not at all.”

Jane chuckled at Lily’s evasive answer.

“Be honest, okay?”

“Ah…”

Her yellow Jewel Eye briefly lost focus.

“Did it feel good?”

“Yes… very much.”

“Good, I love this honesty.”

“Ahhh.”

Having confessed without knowing why, Lily squirmed in embarrassment.

“Admitting it is manly. What’s wrong? Sexual desire isn’t shameful.”

Jane’s whisper was incredibly sweet.

But Lily had learned from experience.

She remembered how this same approach at the trading company had led to disaster.

Not that she could resist now.

“One last question.”

“N-no thanks.”

“Were you satisfied?”

Jane poured vicious poison into Lily’s ear.

“Was Lily’s greedy, lewd pussy truly satisfied?”

Though accustomed to monster venom, Jane’s poison was far more lethal.

“Uhh, ahh.”

“I don’t think Lily’s body is satisfied yet.”

“Huuuu.”

“Look. Your nipples are still hard, and here, your clitoris. My, I’ve never seen Lily’s clit this big before.”

“Hiiii…”

Jane pointed out each sign of arousal with her finger.

Lily felt like she’d go insane.

Without even being touched directly,

just whispered words in her ear,

she felt greater satisfaction than from touching herself.

After watching Lily tremble, Jane finally revealed her true colors.

“Shall we have some fun like old times?”

Jane subtly encouraged Lily’s boundless lust dancing on her palm.

“Ah, ahh♡”

Her pelvis convulsed.

But Lily clung to the last shreds of reason.

“N-nooo.”

“But I want to play with Lily.”

Lily resisted to the end.

“I just, just masturbated…”

But Jane knew an easy way to conquer Lily.

Long, slender fingers lightly pinched her cute nipple.

“Let’s play, Lily. Okay?”

“Hngk♡”

Then Jane asked Lily once more.

“You’ll play with me?”

“Y-yes, yesss…♡”

It was easy.

Lily was so easy.
