City of Witches - Chapter 305: Before the Picnic (2)
1.
After dinner.
In the Mansion, the twins’ movements were heavily restricted, at least as long as the Countess or Head Maid Galina was around.
Every night after dinner, they had to greet their Masters before they went to sleep.
For tonight especially, they couldn’t really do anything else. Their Masters wanted to see their progress in their piano lessons, so they had to obey that and went to the music room with their Masters.
Before departing from the dining room, they threw a pitiable look towards Siwoo.
On the contrary, Sharon was essentially the Countess’ guest.
She was free to do whatever and go wherever as long as she didn’t cross certain boundaries.
This also meant that she could visit Siwoo’s accommodation freely.
And so, she did just that and sneaked into the place.
When she got there, she saw Siwoo carrying his soaps and the likes and headed to the bathhouse.
Seeing this, she thought that maybe they could have some fun times if she were to follow him.
“Ugh… Should I really go though?”
Still, Sharon wasn’t a shameless person.
Though she vowed in her heart that ‘I’d do anything I want, who cares about what other people think!’…
It didn’t mean that she’d feel fine ignoring her contract completely.
Just a while ago, the Countesses had invited her to a really amazing meal and named her their guest, so her conscience was working overtime to warn her to not throw her shame away even though she had vowed in her heart.
“I have to keep a reasonable distance between us…”
She could justify that it was their reunion for yesterday’s tryst, but if they were to do it two days in a row, it would be a different story.
Then again…
“Honestly, I just want to be with him…”
They didn’t need to have sex.
She would be happy enough if the two of them were watching a movie together or even just having a small talk, really.
“Alright, I’ll just talk with him tonight. Just talking, not gonna do anything else.”
Muttering to no one in particular, Sharon decided to wait in Siwoo’s room.
2.
The annex building where Siwoo and Eloa stayed had showers in each room. But, perhaps due to some kind of limitations when they were building it or for efficiency’s sake, they only installed one bath, which was located in the bathhouse on the first floor of the building.
Though it was considerably smaller than the average public bathhouse, the place’s quality didn’t lose out to the Levanna Grand Bath or any other public bathhouse that Siwoo had previously visited.
Currently, he was soaking his whole body in the tub, surrounded by the smell of fragrant tea leaves.
“Ahh… It feels so nice~”
His voice echoed inside the bathhouse that was filled with soft and pleasant steam.
He could feel all the fatigue that accumulated from him running around since the break of dawn had been washed away.
Maybe if he were to lay his head on the edge of the tub, he could instantly fall asleep right there and then.
“By the way… Master hasn’t eaten anything tonight…”
Tonight’s dinner was when the Countesses gave him and the twins permission to go to the beach tomorrow.
Before the dinner started, he actually went to her room to take her to the dining room with him, but she didn’t even open the door for him.
Instead, she told him ‘I’m good, just go on ahead’ and locked herself inside her room.
It was clear that his remarks earlier in the morning made her feel awkward around him.
Though Duchess Tiphereth always gave off a solemn aura of a well-trained warrior, Siwoo knew that deep down, she was an extremely shy person.
Earlier today, what he said to her was the equivalent of him saying that ‘I enjoyed having sex with you! I’ll treasure it as one of my most precious memories!’ so it was no wonder that she’d be acting this way towards him.
I knew it, I shoulda restrained myself a little.
Well, to be fair, I was trying to imitate Takasho and his methods have worked wonders so far…
“I’ll just give her some space…”
Thinking that time would solve the problem, Siwoo relaxed his mind once again.
We’ll go to the beach tomorrow, there should be plenty of time for us to have a heart-to-heart talk. Only need to have one of those to fix our relationship again.
Perhaps because he got to relax both his mind and body, he had an unusually optimistic view about this.
He soaked his body for a while longer. When he started to feel dizzy, he got out, wiped his body with a soft towel and headed back to his room.
As expected, Eloa’s door was still firmly shut.
Then again, he figured that he could always talk to her tomorrow and stopped worrying about it much.
So, he opened his room and entered, widening his eyes in surprise since he didn’t expect that someone would be sitting on the sofa in his room, waiting for him.
“Huh? Sharon?”
“Hehe, Siwoo! I came here to play!”
It was none other than Sharon, who was acting standoff-ish during the dinner.
In complete contrast to her cold just a while ago, he couldn’t see even a hint of shadow on her face and instead, she was smiling so brightly that it was blinding.
Maybe if she had a tail, it would be moving around vigorously from side to side.
“I missed you!”
“We just saw each other at the dining table…”
Suddenly, she opened her arms and embraced Siwoo tightly.
A rather dangerous gesture since a nice scent wafted from the crown of her head into his nose.
He noticed it when they had sex yesterday, but because Sharon had increased her rank, her scent was considerably stronger than before, making it hard for him to control himself around her.
“Hey, it tickles!”
As she buried herself in his arms, Sharon took a good sniff of his chest.
“Haa… You smell so good, Siwoo…”
“What happened to the lady that acted like a ferocious stray cat when I first met her?”
His first impression of her was that she was a scary and cynical woman.
In fact, she was a little bit scared to talk to her whenever he bought a cigarette from the convenience store she was working at.
Perhaps, her dark green hair and slightly slanted eyes gave her that kind of impression.
“What do you think I’m acting like right now?”
Honestly, now, she’s more like…
“An obedient puppy, that’s what you’re acting like right now.”
Hearing that, Sharon let go of her arms that were holding him and made eye contact with him.
Her green colored eyes glittered, before they turned into half-moons.
It was something that Siwoo had always noticed, but everytime he looked at her eyes like this, he could feel that his heart eased up.
“Are you suggesting that you’ve turned me into a puppy?”
“In bed at least.”
“What? Not everything is about sex, you know?”
“Yes, but I know that’s exactly what you’re hinting at.”
“And you’re correct! Sniff sniff!”
Sharon then proceeded to sniff his chest all over, trying to imitate a puppy.
Looking at how natural she looked as she did it, Siwoo let out a hearty laugh.
After that brief greeting, they set up a small table to hold their drinks in the middle of the room.
Well, it wasn’t like there was anything else for them to do in Gehenna other than drinking and chatting.
There were no movies or shows for them to watch.
“Are you coming over to hang out?”
“Yeah. It feels like we haven’t talked that much, even though you’ve been here since yesterday.”
“Well, we were both busy all day long and the moment we were done, it was already dinner.”
“Mhm! That’s why I came here!”
Ever since she came to Gehenna, Sharon had been wearing nice dresses.
All of them were provided by the Countess so that she could maintain some dignity as her guest.
When Siwoo saw her wearing those dresses for the first time, he was completely shocked.
Sharon’s beauty was undisputable, but she always carried a casual air with her whenever she was wearing her modern casual clothes.
But, when she was dressed in a proper dress like this, the atmosphere around her completely changed. She looked like an icy queen with a haughty and cold temperament.
“Anyway! Let’s celebrate our reunion properly with a toast! Cheers!”
Holding out a glass of alcohol, Sharon crossed her legs.
The hem of her skirt rose, revealing her smooth thighs.
Siwoo once again noticed how white and delicate her thighs were, just like snow.
In fact, he could still feel their soft sensations in his hands.
“…”
Unlike her usual tank top and dolphin pants, her current dress definitely covered up every part of her skin that needed to be covered.
However, it still failed to hide the curves of her body, more specifically and especially, her massive twin pair of mounds.
The chest area of her breasts created a Maginot Line that seemed as if it was able to hold the size and shape of the mounds well. As his gaze traced down, he could see how the dress perfectly fit her narrow waistline and how the short hem of the dress showcased her healthy pair of legs.
Noticing his subtle gaze that accompanied his silence, Sharon put her crossed leg down and sat with her knees pressed together.
“S-Siwoo, right now is a little… Y-You know the Duchess is right next door, right…?”
Sharon said, as if she was embarrassed, but it was clear from her lusty eyes and her voice that she was completely down for it.
This served to further arouse Siwoo’s appetite to just push her down and eat her right there.
“Don’t worry. We have the music box.”
That was it, he couldn’t restrain himself anymore.
Feeling his increased rate of heart beat, he took off his shirt and lifted Sharon off the sofa.
“Wait… I don’t think we should…”
Meanwhile, Sharon still said words of refusal, but she didn’t do anything to stop him.
In a blink of an eye, Siwoo had completely undressed her and laid her down on the bed.
Sharon patiently waited for Siwoo to finish all his preparations with open arms, as if she was ready to embrace him at any moment.
Then, they shared a passionate kiss.
3.
Meanwhile, during that time…
Inside her room, Eloa let out a groan.
After she heard Siwoo’s shocking remark earlier this morning, she had been groaning while rolling around her bed.
An understandable reaction really, since Siwoo just straight up uncovered his perverted tendencies to her; That he liked it when she was watching him having sex with another woman.
Her sharp instinct couldn’t figure out the reason behind why he even said such a thing to her.
Maybe he really had that kind of perverted tendencies, maybe he was just saying it to make Eloa feel better, she didn’t know which one was the truth.
Due to this, she was too shy to even look at his face, so she opted to skip tonight’s dinner.
However, after she mulled it over and over, and after considering Siwoo’s personality, her mind directed her to a certain direction.
He isn’t a pervert.
Yes, he might act like a different person in bed, but that is that, this is this! That doesn’t mean he is perverted by nature!
In other words, he was just being kind, telling me a white lie to spare me from the embarrassment!
But, he said that he noticed that I was there yesterday, right? Why didn’t he stop then? Such a question lingered in her mind, but she decided to stop thinking about it and put her full trust in her disciple.
Just as she had reached that conclusion, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from the distance. She assumed that Siwoo had probably finished with his bathing already and figured that she should hang out with him for a bit.
-Clack, clack!
But, when she listened closely to the sound of the footsteps again, she noticed that this kind of sound would only come out from a pair of heels.
Her room and the main living room were only separated by two walls, the door to the bedroom ,and the door to the living room itself, so it wasn’t hard for Eloa’s sharp senses to distinguish someone’s footsteps.
The sound of footsteps varied from person to person, as it was heavily influenced by the person’s weight, height, stride length and so on. It was a unique trait of someone, just like fingerprints.
For a while, Eloa could hear the footsteps’ owner paced around nearby, but eventually, they disappeared into Siwoo’s room.
It didn’t take long for her to figure out who the owner of the footsteps was.
Miss Evergreen? Did she just entered Siwoo’s room?
But why?
“Could it be…?”
Considering what had happened before, countless suspicions came to her mind.
No way, it can’t be, right?
But, she dismissed those suspicions, since she knew how close Sharon and Siwoo were. One of them visiting the other’s room to hang out probably wasn’t that big of a deal.
-Tap, tap, tap
Not long after that, she could hear Siwoo’s footsteps coming from the distance, followed by the sound of the door closing.
Then, she heard the pair exchanging their words loudly.
‘Are you suggesting that you’ve turned me into a puppy?’
‘In bed at least.’
‘What? Not everything is about sex, you know?’
‘Yes, but I know that’s exactly what you’re hinting at.’
Eloa agonized for a moment before she decided to leave her bedroom and went into the living room.
She wanted to go to the place where she could hear them better.
In truth, the reason why she felt so disoriented today wasn’t just because she became wet when she was peeping on Siwoo and Sharon’s intercourse.
Similar to back when he suspected him having a tryst with Periwinkle…
She felt a feeling of discomfort when he peeped on the two yesterday.
Then, she realized something.
The fact that Periwinkle wasn’t the only person Siwoo had a physical relationship with.
And that she also had a physical relationship with Sharon, the witch that he was especially close with, a woman who was practically his lover at this point.
At first, Eloa tried to justify her current action with the excuse that she was being overprotective of her disciple, but she knew more than anyone that she was extremely curious.
When a pair of man and woman were left alone…
What kind of conversation would they have?
And so, she decided to listen in to their conversation while concealing her breath.
To her surprise, they were only talking about trivial things.
They shared what was going on in their daily lives.
For Sharon, she shared that she got a taste of what living like royalty felt like during her stay at the Gemini Mansion.
She also told Siwoo what was going on in the twins’ classes.
As for Siwoo, he was talking about his friend, who had opened up a shop in Lenomond Town.
Hearing this trivial exchange between them made Eloa feel guilty for listening in, but at the same time, she felt relieved since nothing else happened.
Until she suddenly heard a rather loud sound.
