Counting the Night of the Blazing Flame (8)

I want it.

I want him to touch me.

I want him to touch me, to take me away, to ignite this fever that’s burning me away.

Chizuru was trembling on the edge of the bed, wrapped in the sheets and trying to hide, when she finally began to hear Lukrov’s footsteps coming toward the bedroom. Just the thought of what was going to happen to her now made her sweat.

Chizuru’s body was not normal.

Her intense heart rate would not slow down. At times it was even difficult to breathe because of it and adding to that unbearable tingling that enveloped her whole body……

Chizuru began to understand what the true nature of this sweet torture was.

But…..why?

She also knew that it was a result of the medicine she received from Estabelle. Most importantly, Chizuru was starting to realize that there was a way to free herself from this pain.

Was it Chizuru’s imagination, or did Lukrov’s footsteps stop for a moment in front of the door?

Maybe it was just that she had been waiting so long for him to come back that one second seemed like an eternity.

In any case, Lukrov paused for a moment and then quietly opened the door.

After an expedition like this, which took nearly a whole day, she usually ran up to Lukrov with a smile on her face, no matter what.

But now, even though Lukrov had returned, Chizuru was stuck in a corner of the bed, unable to move.

──If I moved, that would be it.

Lukrov sensed something was wrong right away. There were fewer candles than usual, the hot tub remained unused, and his wife did not appear to greet him. 

“Chizuru? Are you there?”

Lukrov asked in a quiet, cautious voice. He was still wearing his chainmail, and as he walked, the inorganic sound of chains swinging could be heard.

Lukrov climbed onto the bed immediately while still wearing his boots. He was also wearing a tunic over his chainmail.

Seeing Chizuru wrapped up in the sheets with only her face and neck showing, Lukrov’s expression immediately turned grim, and he held her shoulders tightly through the sheets with both hands.

“What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?”

Chizuru didn’t know what expression she had on her face. But judging from Lukrov’s worried eyes, she was either very pale or bright red.

Chizuru managed to shake her head.

“It’s so painful.”

She murmured, her voice shaking as a hot breath escaped from her dry lips. Lukrov’s hand quickly wrapped around Chizuru’s cheek.

His dark eyes wavered with anxiety.

No, it was more than anxiety. A deep dark fear was overcoming the anxiety.

If he touched me hereー

Would I be able to free myself from this throbbing desire? Or will I be swallowed up in a vortex of even more intense lust and end up broken?

Butー

As her body demanded, Chizuru stretched her neck and placed a gentle kiss on Lukrov’s lips.

Lukrov responded by lightly nipping at Chizuru’s lips. He then held the nape of his wife’s neck and pressed a deep kiss against her skin.

Chizuru quivered as she exhaled a hot breath.

“Ah!”

Their breaths mingled together, and it was hard to tell which was which. Lukrov’s tongue stroked the inside of Chizuru’s mouth, sucking and trying to imprint his ownership.

When the long kiss finally came to an end, Chizuru raised her feverish eyes and looked at Lukrov.

His eyes were filled with surprise.

“This is an aphrodisiac. Why would you… need such a thing?“

Aphro…..disiac

Why….. Such a thing….

Lukrov’s voice circled in her head, and she tried to answer him, but her body wouldn’t respond properly. Chizuru just shook her head from side to side in frustration.

“Did someone serve it to you?”

Chizuru continued to shake her head.

She had no intention of hiding anything from him. She was going to honestly confess that she had visited Estabelle because she wanted to have a child and had taken the medicine she had received there, and this was what had happened. But her body would not allow her to do so.

“I drank…… by myself…….”

That was all she could tell him.

“Lukrov….To-touch me….. Hold me tightly….”
