“Ugh, haah… yes!”
Water that couldn’t be completely blocked flowed between the urethral plug. I desperately panted while gripping the blanket with hands that naturally tensed up. Saliva flowed from my open mouth, but I didn’t have the composure to care about that.
“I’m going, going to die, ugh, haa…!”
My hole, which kept contracting and squirming from the faint continuing climax, eagerly bit down on his cock. I was on the verge of fainting from the overwhelming swollen pleasure.
Soon Cedric, who let out a shallow moan, stopped while deeply inserted. He released his hand that had been blocking the urethral plug, and my body trembled violently.
“Hnngh…”
Transparent fluid mixed with semen spurted out strongly, and a thrilling pleasure that seemed to make me lose consciousness dominated my entire body.
As much as I had held back poured out.
The afterglow lasted long, and while I was catching my breath with small pants, Cedric, who had been enjoying the afterglow together, pulled his cock out.
“Mmm. Huu…”
Still seeming not completely soft, the long and thick thing scraped against my inner walls as it slipped out. When I tightened my hole with effort, I felt the semen pooled inside being pushed out.
When all strength left my completely relaxed body, drowsy fatigue poured over me.
“Eddie. Are you going to sleep?”
“Mmhm…”
I thought I should wash, but my eyes drowsily closed. As I stretched out and found a comfortable position to lie down, darkness came over me.
From the other side of unconsciousness, I felt something slippery rubbing against the soles of my feet, but that was only for a moment.
When I opened my eyes to the morning sunlight tickling my eyelids, I was lying down looking at the ceiling. Soon I realized my body was in a fresh state and looked for Cedric.
He was still sleeping next to me. The blanket was also new – he must have asked a servant for a new blanket.
“……”
Looking out the window, the rain seemed to have stopped.
I quietly pulled up the blanket and wriggled inside it.
Perhaps because we had been intimate after a long time, a strange languidness still remained, but it was closer to refreshment than fatigue, so even the slightly stiff sensation felt pleasant.
After being buried in the blanket for a while, I turned my body and squeezed into Cedric’s embrace. Cedric hugged me in his sleep.
‘Good smell…’
I took a deep breath in his embrace and then closed my eyes. I slept a little more until Cedric woke up.
I sent Cedric to the bathroom first and was resting in front of the fireplace where the heat had died down overnight, when Fren, the servant who always handled morning cleaning, came in hesitantly.
His eyes, which had grown round, were trembling with bewilderment. It was understandable that he was flustered after witnessing someone other than me entering my room’s bathroom, not a guest room, at this early hour.
I looked at him and asked.
“Did you happen to change the blanket?”
“Ah, yes, yes. Young master.”
Then his confusion makes even more sense.
“I’m saying this just in case, but don’t go tell my parents or Redward what you found out. We were going to go tell them directly today anyway.”
“Gulp, understood.”
Fren bowed and quickly started cleaning. A little later, when Cedric came out of the bathroom, I could see him quietly being shocked, but I pretended not to notice.
“Cedy, are you going to eat breakfast too before you go?”
“Yeah.”
Cedric, who had approached closer to the sofa, planted a kiss on my forehead. I was about to get up to wash when—
“Ah, you were taking care of this.”
Cedric, who discovered the vase placed by the window, approached it. It was the flower he had given me as a gift before.
“Yeah. You just noticed?”
“I haven’t had time to properly check until now.”
That’s true. When he visited my room last time, we were too busy fighting to have leisure for such things, and yesterday we washed and prepared for bed as soon as he arrived.
“I’ll go wash up first.”
“Yeah, go ahead.”
I could hear Cedric looking at flowers and seeming to ask Fren something. Leaving that behind, when I came out of the bathroom after washing, Fren had already finished cleaning and left.
We changed into full clothes and went down to the lobby. It was to see off Castian and Terion who were preparing to leave before breakfast time.
Although Terion was the one departing for his own purpose, Castian, who was merely following him, seemed more excited.
“Please travel safely. You too, Terion.”
I bid farewell to both of them. But for some reason, Terion was staring intently at me and Cedric. I was reading the mood wondering why, when Castian smiled broadly and said.
“Right. I’m thinking of returning for the Lumentia festival. If I come up to the Imperial Palace then, let’s meet again.”
“Yes.”
“But…”
Suddenly he bent his waist toward me and whispered quietly.
“I wonder which dog in heat marked its territory on you. The scent is quite strong.”
I immediately recalled Cedric giving me pheromone marking yesterday. Since I can’t feel anything, I had completely forgotten that such a thing happened yesterday.
“Ah, that, uh…”
As I was stuttering, Cedric pulled my arm toward him. His gaze glaring at Castian was not kind.
Castian chuckled as if he understood and straightened his waist again. Both Mother and Father are Betas, and most of the employees working at the Lowell mansion are also Betas, so they don’t seem to notice… but Castian and Terion, who are Alphas, must have noticed immediately.
I hung my head from the belated embarrassment. Not knowing this, our parents smiled and saw off Castian and Terion until the end.
“Eddie, we’re telling them today, right?”
The very person who had slathered pheromones all over me, blatantly displaying possessiveness, whispered in my ear.
Come to think of it, I suspect this guy’s pheromone marking yesterday was all intentional.
Since our parents are Betas and wouldn’t notice anyway… it was to indirectly reveal and assert our relationship to Castian.
“…What a cunning guy.”
I hadn’t thought of that at all.
I grabbed Cedric’s cheek with my hand, pressing it. His face flattened and his lips stuck out, but Cedric stayed obediently captured.
“You’ll still like me though, right?”
“If you can’t even speak…”
“I like you, Eddie.”
“…Sigh. Fine.”
It was when we two were having such a conversation in lowered voices.
“What are you two doing?”
Mother, who had finished seeing them off and turned around first, asked in bewilderment. I quickly released the hand that had been holding Cedric’s face.
“Ah, he says he’ll have breakfast together before going.”
“Oh my, really? Great! I should tell them to prepare lots of things you both like.”
Soon Mother and Father moved their steps toward the dining room first. I looked at the two of them and said quietly.
“…Let’s talk during the meal.”
“Yeah, good.”
After deciding that much, we followed to the dining room and naturally took seats across from our parents.
Our parents, who knew nothing, led the conversation by bringing up everyday topics until the food came out.
“It really rained a lot yesterday.”
“It is about time for frequent rain.”
“Oh, Cedy, did you sleep well? Was there anything uncomfortable?”
“Yes. I slept comfortably.”
“That’s a relief.”
And we also maintained the same harmonious atmosphere as usual, as if nothing had happened.
Soon food began to appear on the table one by one, and an atmosphere for starting the meal was forming.
“Why are you like that? No appetite?”
Father looked at me and asked carefully. It must have seemed strange that I was just staring blankly at the table while trying to figure out the timing to speak up.
I quickly lifted my head and unconsciously looked back at Cedric, and our eyes met exactly in mid-air. I gathered courage first and threw out the opening.
“Um, Mother, Father.”
“Yes?”
“Actually, today… I have something to tell you.”
“Mm? What is it?”
When it came time to actually speak, I became nervous and sweat formed on my palms. I unnecessarily rubbed my sweaty palms on my pants.
Perhaps noticing that the atmosphere was strange, the two of them were also exchanging glances with each other. Then Cedric, who had been sitting quietly beside me, placed his hand on the back of my hand and held it.
I could feel that he was also nervous, but he looked outwardly seemingly calm as he looked at our parents and opened his mouth.
“We are dating with marriage in mind.”
If it was a straight ball, it was a straight ball.
…Clang!
The sound of the two, who had been preparing to start their meal, dropping their cutlery to the floor rang through the quiet dining room.
I raised my eyes that had been looking only at the table and stared across. The two of them had frozen and were just staring with wide eyes.
