Chapter 98. Descending Into the Depths
I held Luderne’s neck tighter and whispered against his ear.
“It doesn’t have to be love. I don’t ask for marriage or children.”
At my words, Luderne stiffened for a moment.
“Until I die, or until Your Majesty takes a lady to spend your life with….”
Either way, only a handful of years remained.
“Please don’t abandon me.”
Tears welled up as I spoke.
My voice wavered with moisture at the end, but I closed my eyes, hoping he hadn’t noticed. The darkness was truly a mercy.
Luderne had gone rigid as stone.
After a moment, he ground out his words as if in pain.
“Damn it, I’m going mad.”
It was strange.
The way he said it sounded so anguished.
He kissed me again, fiercely—as if swallowing my very breath, until my mind grew hazy.
Then he buried his face against my chest.
A sharp gasp escaped me at the sensation, and my back arched involuntarily.
In that moment, his hand invaded the intimate place between my thighs.
He pressed with measured pressure, rubbed, and delicately scraped along the inner walls.
Soon his hot lips found that place.
“Ah!”
My vision blurred from the dizzying sensation, and I grasped the bedsheet.
Within moments, overwhelming pleasure flooded through me, and my mind went white. My body trembled uncontrollably.
“Haah!”
A sharp cry escaped my lips.
Even as his touch felt exquisite, I wanted to pull away.
Luderne gripped my hips firmly.
So I couldn’t escape.
The moment he rose and his breathing grew rougher, his hard length thrust into me, splitting me open.
The weight of his entry was followed by dizzying ecstasy that consumed my entire being.
“Ah, ah! Ahhh!”
As if he knew exactly where to strike, intense rapture awaited at the spot he found.
Heat surged through me in an instant.
‘Good heavens.’
I couldn’t control the sensation of my body burning with fever. Tears streamed as cries nearly like screams tore from me.
“Hah!”
“Hah….”
Luderne withdrew with a sharp breath, then thrust back in powerfully. The force of it shook my entire body.
His movements opened me to another peak, and I cried out again.
With each movement he made, the same thing happened.
Light flashed and flickered before my eyes as if fireworks were bursting directly in front of me.
Cries kept escaping my lips.
But unlike before, he didn’t silence me with a kiss, so I ended up covering my own mouth with both hands.
Each time he moved with desire, each time I accepted him believing it was love, I produced sounds of varying pitch like a played instrument.
“Ah, ah, mm….”
Even with both hands covering my mouth, I clenched my teeth, and Luderne seized both my hands, interlacing his fingers with mine and pressing them down onto the sheets.
“Breathe, don’t hold back. I want to hear you. Hah.”
His breathing had already grown as rough as a beast’s.
I shook my head.
“The sounds are… too loud.”
Luderne licked away the tears that had spilled from my eyes.
“There’s no need for elegance in bed. I’m deliberately drawing out those wild sounds from you.”
My body was already burning, and his words made my face flush even hotter.
“Hah, even so… I don’t like it.”
Luderne laughed softly even as his breathing grew increasingly ragged.
“Yet here you are, dying of pleasure, and you claim with your words that you dislike it.”
Luderne continued moving his hips relentlessly, his lips constantly finding every sensitive part of my body to stimulate me further.
I reached climax several times because of it.
I felt as though the wetness born of love was pouring down like a waterfall.
Unable to bear the maddening ecstasy, I thrashed about, but it was futile.
Luderne grasped both my wrists in one hand, lifting them above my head, while his other hand gripped my pelvis firmly.
He seemed determined not to let me rest for even a moment.
“Ah, ah!”
I tried to stifle the sounds pouring relentlessly from my lips, but finally I pleaded.
“Kiss me, please….”
Then his hand slipped behind my back.
Still joined together, my body was lifted upright. He positioned me to sit upon him as he sat.
Because of the seated position, I felt him reaching even deeper inside me.
“Ah!”
I grasped both his shoulders with my hands.
The moment his large hands gripped my waist, my body was lifted and lowered in rapid succession.
At the height of dizziness, I moved my hands to frame his face and sought out his alluring lips to kiss.
As I pressed into the space between his lips, our breaths finally mingled.
The more forcefully he moved, the more intense my kiss became.
I grew increasingly lost, breathing more frantically until I finally bit his shoulder.
Climax found me again swiftly.
From deeper within. With sensation pushed to its limit.
“Ah.”
In that moment, Luderne let out a single groan and his body stiffened. The arms pulling me close tightened with greater force.
A sensation of plunging into the deepest depths.
Was it instinct? A rapturous laugh escaped me at the sensation of becoming one with him.
“Ah, Luderne, Luderne….”
I continued calling his name, lost in an ecstasy that made my body feel weightless and untethered.
At some point, it felt like I was dreaming. The very fact that I could call his name like this seemed unreal.
Then my consciousness began to drift away, and I heard what should have been impossible to hear.
Luderne’s voice, trembling with passion as he called my name.
“Priscilla, my Priscilla….”
* * *
‘Oh!’
I jolted awake with a start.
When I turned my head, I saw a single small candle burning on the nightstand.
I assessed my state. My bare body was covered gently with a soft quilt up to my shoulders.
I realized that I had been intoxicated by the heat of our passion and had lost consciousness at some point.
I carefully surveyed my surroundings.
Luderne was asleep beside me.
I gazed at him for a moment, then carefully rose and gathered the clothes I had discarded.
I dressed and carefully opened the door to peer outside.
No one was there.
Thanks to that, I was able to return easily to the bedroom Luderne had prepared for me.
I locked the door and threw myself onto the bed.
The aftermath of what we had shared lingered on my body.
As I lay quietly with my eyes closed, I suddenly jolted up in alarm.
“Wait.”
‘Did we use protection this time?’
Good heavens.
I covered my gaping mouth.
No matter how hard I thought, I couldn’t recall a single moment of precaution.
* * *
As the bedroom door closed, Luderne opened his eyes.
He caressed the empty space beside him where Priscilla had lain, and recalled the events of yesterday—from his meeting with the Emperor to seeing Priscilla again.
After concluding his conversation with Luderne, the Emperor had given him a key.
“I suppose it’s permissible now.”
A place that Eclite had long since been using, but which Luderne had never been granted access to.
The Magic Scroll Storage.
Luderne immediately inspected the interior of the storage.
Magic had vanished, and among what remained, few scrolls were of practical use.
The most abundant of the usable ones were teleportation magic scrolls—activated by tearing them while envisioning one’s destination.
Luderne gathered the teleportation scrolls with a bitter smile, understanding all too well why the Emperor had never granted him access to this place before.
Now that the Emperor believed Priscilla dead and gone from the world, there was nothing to hold him back.
Luderne used a teleportation scroll to return directly to Arde.
I had come to the Plaza with the Clock Tower for the purpose of stopping by Bernard Heser’s shop. Now that I was free to move about, I wanted to give Priscilla a small gift.
Luderne found the very small and finely crafted diamond earrings he had left there.
Though modest in size, they were of the highest quality, mined from Luderne’s own mines.
He placed the earrings in a jewelry box and sent them to the Raber Salon along with flowers, so that Priscilla could receive them as a surprise gift when she arrived at the salon in the morning.
After that, he walked toward the carriage waiting in the plaza while listening to Bernard’s report.
Bernard, who had regained his senses from the previous torture, rubbed his hands together eagerly and reported to Luderne everything he had gathered thus far.
It was about Count Veloda Genoma, Melissa Bilsty, and Matilda Bilsty.
“These days, those women have been busy purchasing drugs that cloud the mind. Especially in forms meant to be dissolved in beverages and consumed…”
Bernard clicked his tongue mid-sentence.
“Tsk, no doubt they intend to use it to seduce men. Oh, and the girl’s mother will be heading to her territory soon.”
“To her territory?”
“Yes. She says there are matters to handle regarding territory taxes. She’s going alone and will stay for a month or two, she claims.”
It was then that Luderne suddenly stopped walking.
“Though we’re watching them under His Majesty’s orders, they’re truly despicable creatures…. Eh?”
Bernard, who had also stopped, checked the direction Luderne was looking and ceased his report.
He too recognized Priscilla and Olivia.
“My daughter is there?”
As Bernard spoke, his jaw dropped in shock.
It was because Melissa had emerged carrying beverages on a tray and was offering them to Priscilla and Olivia.
“She absolutely must not drink anything that woman gives her!”
It was at that moment.
That Priscilla spilled Olivia’s beverage.
