Chapter 35

However, the maids who left the room were waiting outside the door.

The audience could only hear the sound. The reason why Selena was doing this was not to show off her affection, but to make fun of Kalcion.

“Shall we get started?”

She declared the start of the performance.

“Now…..!”

However, the counterpart was not ready for the action.

Having not been able to prepare his mind, Kalcion stiffened into a straight posture. Selena raised her eyebrows and whistled inwardly as she saw his iliac bone through the water surface.

His upper body, which was completely exposed, was a crystal of perfection that did not exist as a drawback. Not too much, not too lacking. His muscles were so perfect that a picture of his body should be stamped and pasted on every sports facility.

Underneath it, of course, would be great, but it was not seen because of the petals floating on the surface of the water. Had they not been there, the situation might have become embarrassing enough to be able to deal with.

She had planned the operation after seeing the floating petals. She approached him with a gentle smile.

“I don’t think I would have known if I wasn’t here. How could you leave your body in the care of another woman’s hands when I was here?”

“......You better not do anything weird.”

Kalcion flustered under her watch. Selena was not a person to buy work unless it was necessary.

Was there anything suspicious anywhere? Kalcion looked around, but as expected, nothing caught his eye.

“What made you think I will?”

Smiling with her eyes, she walked to him slowly.

Kalcion, who casually glanced at Selena, hurriedly turned to the other side after he noticed her wearing a thin piece of clothing.

As she walked to his back with a bath towel that the servants had put down, his broad shoulders stiffened with tension.

She drew her fingertips along his shoulder from his neck, feeling the hot solid skin under them.

“You took it off like I wasn’t there, huh?”

Now it struck him. He was always watched by servants when he took a bath back in the castle. He had no sense of caution even when Selena was standing there. He thought that the space here was also separated, so he didn’t have an obligation to set up manners in front of a Lady.

However, he knew what Selena meant now was not a matter of courtesy to a Lady.

It felt like his senses had increased by ten times. The sleek sensation of the water flowing down to his body, and the touch of Selena’s fingers down to his shoulders was more than usual. It even caused an unbearable stir in his stomach.

“My Duke doesn’t even see me as a woman, does he……?”

As if honey was dripping off her lips instead of her voice. Her sweet and seductive voice that reached his ears was enough to make him stop breathing.

Naturally mimicking the maids, she sprayed water on his upper body and rubbed it with a towel. Although it was not much different from the wait of the servants, the tension he felt was increasingly overlapping in him. Nor did Selena loosen up.

Half of her wanted him to recognize her as a woman, but she couldn’t let herself falter. What would people think if they returned after finishing to take a bath together? Rather than being tempted by her actions, it seemed she had found some of his weaknesses.

However, she couldn’t target those weaknesses of his. Rather, it needed to be a smooth rock to be rolled in thoroughly. She didn’t know what she should do at first, but she had to let Kalcion melt completely and make him stay in the room.

But after a while, Selena had a way.

***

“Ngh….!”

The maids and guards standing outside the door exchanged their glances at the foreign sound.

‘That sound, just now…...’

‘Did I hear it wrong?’

It was a short sound, but it definitely came from the bathroom.

Everyone was surprised because the sound was unusual enough to come out of a bathroom.

“Oh, hmm...hn…..”

A series of sounds once again reached the maids.

That low voice could not be Selena’s. That was definitely the voice of the Duke. But the voice coming out of his mouth...?

‘What the hell are they doing?!’

They didn’t dare imagine the scene.

Kalcion was a man of few expressions. He was quiet and had little change in his features. He usually kept his mouth shut unless it was necessary, and even when he fought hard enough to collapse during training, he never did groan.

‘What are they doing?!’

Since it was Kalcion, who always trained with swords, most of the servants knew how to massage him. Sometimes, after a hard training session, they massaged the Knights of Renbird.

Everytime that happened, the knights used to be distracted and would burn with all kinds of painful groans because of their swollen muscles.

However, Kalcion rarely had any swells, and the sound of his breathing did not change when he was being massaged.

Then, what was the cause of this sound?

“How about here? Huh? Here? More?”

While concentrating on the sound coming from inside the room with their ears to the door, they were surprised by Selena’s voice, accompanied by a chuckle before returning to a standstill.

Kalcion was not alone right now. Suddenly, it occurred to them that he was spending time with the woman he brought from the mountain alone in the bathhouse. Let all the servants leave!

What could they be doing for them to make that noise when there are no eyes to see them? From here, it was entirely an area of imagination. Imagination was always beyond reality.

When Selena called the maid back to clean up after the bath, it was as quiet as if nothing had happened in there. Selena sat in her bathtub, flapping her wet clothes.

A lingering heat was floating in the bathroom air.

‘What did they do to make it this humid?!’

Feeling that it was not just the warmth of the bath, the maids questioningly glanced at each other.

“Ah, you can just hand over the towel and some dry clothes.”

Selena smiled bashfully as she reached out her hand towards the maid who was approaching her.

“But…..”

“I can do it by myself.”

“Your clothes must be uncomfortable because they’re wet, would that be okay?”

Pointing to the other side of the screen with her chin, she winked.

“I’m ashamed to be seen by others now.”

She quickly dried herself after grabbing the towel before changing into dry clothes.

No one could tell what marks were left on her body since she changed her clothes while covering her body. However, one maid could spot several dark bruises over her hand.

After they finished changing their clothes, Selena and Kalcion walked out of the bathroom. Kalcion put an arm around Selena’s shoulder while she smiled coyly, wrapping her arms around Kalcion’s waist.

“How was it?”

“I’m very surprised. I didn’t expect you to have that ability.”

“I could do a little more.”

“Are you going to be okay?”

“Can you carry me to my room? I’m tired because of you, Duke. My body is lacking strength.”

“Not a problem.”

On the spot, Kalcion lifted her up in one swift movement.

“Kyaa!”

She joyfully wrapped her arms around his neck. The guards, who had forgotten to bow, hurriedly lowered their eyes only after their eyes met with Selena’s.

“Which way is the room?”

“.......Oh, uh, His Excellency’s room is over here, and Lady Selena’s room is over there.”

The rooms were at each end of the hallway. It could be known without asking whose work it was. She probably didn’t have time to do the same to the bath. Moreover, it wouldn’t have been difficult to divide up the room while they arrived.

Nevertheless, they could not go to their own rooms to sleep in a situation where they were already caught trying to do ‘something more’ in the room.

“Aww, let’s just go to the Duke’s room.”

“But…..Mrs. Janet said one room would be stuffy for two…...”

Mrs. Janet seemed to have spoken to the maids in advance. Not only did she send her servants, but also every arrangement was being controlled by Mrs. Janet.

But, Selena couldn’t be swayed by her anymore. She leaned her face against his neck with a smile on her face.

“It’s okay if it’s small. We can sleep together. Let’s go, Duke.”

Kalcion, who was feeling extremely bothered by the war of nerves between two that were not even in front of each other, stepped in before the exchange of words got longer.

Mrs. Janet was good at wielding young children, but not Kalcion. If he intervened, the situation would already be over before it even started.

The guards had to follow and settle in front of the door, while the maids were dismissed. The maids, who were looking down at the floor, raised their heads and started talking as soon as the figures of Kalcion and Selena disappeared.

“Whoa. She talked right behind Mrs. Janet?”

“Did it seem like His Excellency was angry?”

“That’s unusual. His Excellency pushed aside Mrs. Janet’s words for a girl. That’s very unusual.”

“Hey, well, they’re all over the place, aren’t they? So far, all the women who have been attached to His Lordship have been obsessed with him because they liked him, but this time, it’s different.”

It was definitely different. The length of time he gave Selena was different, so was the permission to accept her arrogant behavior.

“D-Did you see? Did you see it? Did you see it? His Excellency's back!”

“Back? Why? What was on his back? Lady Selena changed herself in the corner, so I couldn’t see anything on her.”

“There were red lines on His Excellency’s back as if he was scratched by a cat……!”

“Gasp! Re-Really?!”

”Weren’t his groans quite loud…..?”

“Wasn’t that so…..?”

A beat passed as a thought made their heads overheat. Of course, what filled their minds was a secret imagination that most of them could not speak out.

Needless to say, the imagination of the maids and the reality were very different. As soon as the door to the room was closed, Selena proudly squeeze-hugged Kalcion’s neck without getting off on the floor.

“Oh, yes. That was great. I’m glad that you could pull it off!”
