Secretly Releasing Desire (1)

Two days had passed since the day I won a round in the Swordsmanship Duel with Ethan.

There were still two days left until I received my reward. However, the desire that had enveloped my body on the first day became something even harder to bear on the second day, tormenting me.

-Rustle, rustle.

“…….”

-Rustle, rustle, rustle.

“…….”

Even as I waited in Ethan’s office, wondering if there was anything I needed to do today, my eyes remained fixed on him, who was concentrating on his work.

Ethan, who was diligently absorbed in his duties, didn’t seem to notice, but I had been observing only the sight of his hand moving across the desk for an hour already.

…Thinking that it was somehow a hand that made me feel lewd just by looking at it.

‘It’s not strange, considering what I’ve done with Ethan so far…’

Because our sex, Ethan’s hand techniques that tormented me were always included without fail.

Whether it was strongly kneading my breasts with those rough hands, gently pinching and rubbing my sensitive parts with delicate touches, or, like in the coastal cave last time, inserting those long fingers into my body and moving them roughly….

“Haa, haa, haaa…”

…No, calm down, calm down. There are still two more days until sex… no, until my date with Ethan.

If I kept having such lewd thoughts about him like this, I might not even be able to show 10% of my original plan on the actual date, and just drag Ethan straight to bed.

I wanted to avoid that if possible. If I had enjoyed fake dates under the pretext of exploration classes until now, this time, I wanted to properly enjoy a date with a certain atmosphere.

‘…He seems to have almost finished his coffee.’

Since it would be a bit disappointing if he ran out of caffeine while concentrating, I quietly brewed a new pot of coffee on the side.

I brought the water kettle I had prepared and the coffee brewed with Sally’s fire magic over to Ethan.

-Clink.

“This is freshly brewed coffee, Ethan Young Master.”

“Ah, thank you. I’ll drink it well.”

“I will clear the empty cup for you.”

With those words, I took the empty tableware from Ethan and returned to my waiting spot.

Just as I was about to clean it with Clean Magic, my gaze inadvertently fell upon a round mark left on the left side of the coffee cup’s handle.

“…….”

…No, well. It’s just that.

Whether Ethan drank coffee with his mouth on this side or not, it had nothing to do with me.

Anyway, it was a mark that would disappear with one use of Clean Magic, but, hmm….

‘There’s still a little bit left at the bottom.’

…Well, it would be a bit of a waste to get rid of the remaining coffee with Clean Magic. Even though it was what Ethan left after drinking, it probably wouldn’t matter.

With that thought, I carefully brought my mouth to the left side of the coffee cup’s handle, and let a little of the contents flow into my mouth.

-Lick.

“……Hmph.”

-Lick, lick.

“Ugh, hyaa…”

To get as much of the liquid, which was only a few drops, into my mouth as possible, I tilted the coffee cup and moved my lips.

As I was subtly playing my tongue up and down on the coffee cup, which still faintly held the taste of Ethan’s lips, around that time.

-Lick, lick.

“……Hmph, hnn.”

“…….”

“…………?!?!?!”

At some point, Ethan stopped the hand that had been moving on the desk and our eyes met precisely as he looked at me.

“……!”

-Whirl!

Ethan, who had also been staring blankly at me, seeing that I was startled, hurriedly averted his gaze and turned his head back to the desk.

His consideration, clearly implying he would pretend not to have seen anything, only made my mind more complicated with various thoughts.

Of course, it was grateful that he wouldn’t explicitly mention what I had done, but it felt no different from him taking away even my chance to make an excuse.

-Rustle, rustle.

“…….”

“E-Ethan Young Master?”

“…Uh, hmm. Why suddenly, Lilith?”

“E-Ethan Young Master, I felt it was a waste that there was a little coffee left in your cup, so I drank a bit.”

“…Isn’t that not really something you need to report? And I was concentrating on my work, so I didn’t see anything.”

“…Is that so? Still, I thought it was right to report it, so I told you.”

“Th-that’s right. I can just drink the coffee Lilith brewed for me, so I don’t really care what you do with the leftover coffee.”

-Slurp.

With those words, Ethan took a sip of the freshly brewed coffee and then shifted his gaze back to the desk.

It was an ambiguous attitude, making it impossible to tell if he believed my words or simply didn’t want to hear any more, but it was clear that I couldn’t offer any more excuses here.

‘Fuck, how embarrassing…’

…Just two more days. Just two days.

The day before sex with Ethan… no, the day before receiving the ‘reward’ for winning the Swordsmanship Duel against Ethan.

In a way, it was an obvious thing, but as the day drew closer, my emotions became even harder to control.

Perhaps it was a feeling similar to a child unable to sleep the night before going to an amusement park, due to excitement.

Still, the fortunate thing was that I had lightly relieved my sexual urges by myself last night, so it wasn’t unbearably difficult to hold back.

Of course, I couldn’t stimulate the innermost erogenous zones with my fingers, so strictly speaking, it was only half a pleasure… but I thought it would be much better than enduring without doing anything.

That said, inserting things like carrots or eggplants instead of Ethan’s ‘thing’ felt utterly distasteful, so I had no choice.

No matter how desperate I was for desire, putting something phallic into my body was something I, as a former unicorn, was utterly disinclined to do.

‘Just one more day until sex with Ethan…. Just one more day…’

With such thoughts, I watched Ethan processing the documents that had arrived at the Blackwood Territory in his office today.

Ethan, who had been silently moving his hand on the desk, while reading a letter, cautiously called out to me.

“Lilith, could you come over here for a moment?”

“…Yes, Ethan Young Master.”

“This is a letter from the Frieha Count Family, and upon reading it closely, it turns out to be an engagement letter for me, disguised as inter-family exchange.”

“……What?”

“Ah, you don’t have to misunderstand. It’s not that the Noble Lady of the Frieha Count Family is my fiancée, but rather a letter introducing a woman who might potentially become engaged to me, out of the blue.”

“…Yes, I know.”

That Ethan’s fiancée couldn’t possibly be the Noble Lady of the Frieha Count Family was something I had already grasped long ago.

Originally, all letters regarding engagements were supposed to come to me, but it seemed they deliberately didn’t indicate the content on the envelope, aiming for that loophole, which is why it was delivered here.

“Since I don’t want to fall out with the Frieha Count Family, I’d like you to affirm the content regarding exchange and indirectly refuse the content regarding the engagement, Lilith, could you write a reply for me? Is that a difficult request?”

“It’s not difficult. As Ethan Young Master’s Exclusive Maid, I should be able to do that much.”

“If you’re an Exclusive Maid…. Right, anyway, I’ll leave it to you then. You can write the reply on this paper, and the pen is….”

-Swoosh.

“Is there anything else you need me to write in the letter, besides what you just mentioned, Ethan Young Master?”

“Huh? No, not really. That much is enough.”

“…Understood. Then, I will write it down as you instructed, Ethan Young Master, so please review it one last time.”

“Alright, Lilith.”

With a natural conversation, I received two sheets of paper and a pen from Ethan.

Although it was the same letter-writing task I had done the day before yesterday and yesterday, my heart was pounding like crazy right now.

And no wonder, because in my hand was the very pen he had been using just moments ago.

‘…Fortunately, he doesn’t seem to have noticed yet.’

It was something I had done half-impulsively. Because it was the moment when the pen Ethan had been using for document writing just before inadvertently caught my eye.

I secretly took his pen, which still held his warmth, and moved to the reception table. Only after confirming that he noticed his pen was gone and took out another pen from his pencil case to continue his work, could I finally feel relieved.

‘I know it’s actually a pretty meaningless thing to do, but…’

Still, since I’m handling letter-writing tasks like this every time, isn’t it okay for me to take this much?

Especially this request, there were no precise instructions, and I had to organize the content of the letter at my discretion, so it wasn’t a task an ordinary Exclusive Maid would do.

Aside from the joyful feeling I got from Ethan trusting me, I should also receive some compensation for my efforts.

It wasn’t exactly embezzlement or theft. I intended to finish it secretly, in a way Ethan wouldn’t know about, without him knowing.

-Scratch, scratch, scratch….

After confirming that Ethan had buried his head in his work again, concentrating, I deliberately took a seat at the very edge of the table.

Pretending to read the letter, I subtly brought the pen, which still held his warmth, down to my lower body, and then lightly, over my underwear….

-Rub.

“Ugh, hnn…”

…Just a little bit. I really only need to relieve it just a little.

If I were to do something strange because of my pent-up sexual desire, Ethan would only become more troubled.
