As he thrust his hips deeper into 9166785df7 his wife, he found it strange.b7e8dd91081e9b3c25f1

His wife was e4d3a10fc7 the only saint 6d2f5e68da on the continent. She was indifferent to her own 6c77516cbc desires and never asked for anything. Even after returning to secular life, he’d d977902e31 hoped that would change, but over nearly c8c8159269 twenty years, she hadn’t changed at all.291cd6cbac95729b5c27
She never d1b771fbe7 initiated intimacy. She had been the one to suggest that their designated 8494db6208 bed-sharing nights should include actual intercourse, but that was probably 43407f0bbc just to appear like a “real married couple.”8b323c9a0fb90afd7653

Naturally, compared to his desire, 1c08abb4f5 their union always felt dry. It likely 2a192cfb0a only caused e2b77901b3 her pain, 43d2874b57 never pleasure. Maybe she saw 7889f97cb2 it as a 008934c72e form of penance.99667501fd069f207494
Raised to obey without question, his 198b8eb369 wife probably viewed intimacy as just 30d6e447b5 another duty of marriage—and so she 5180970a61 went along with it reluctantly. That must 2d8f84e3c8 have been 800592fdfa the case…9bb082c150e20b53ee77

Slowing his thrusts, he began 9b1f142862 to roll his hips gently. As his penis stirred against her inner walls, a88cbbd8f5 a faint wave appeared on his wife’s face.408af195b2e7e37f30d8

Her lips, trembling with a moan e6a339b738 and breaking his name into mere fc76f745d2 syllables, were flushed too red.52e6757a0d8c11acee2e

As he stared blankly, her delicate eff31d460b arms reached into the air. Their intimacy had always 85bd91bd25 been focused on insemination, c489d198cf but now she seemed 2302a91bed to crave more contact. He had no d1c014fca7 time to refuse. Klaus bent down 4b26b790d9 and buried his 4d70948a45 wife’s slender body 75ae8d5f0e in his arms. Clenching his hips, he pounded 4ddffcd2b6 deep, and the unfamiliar angle c4c39c2a1c sparked a rush of pleasure 0c9488f07e through his veins. Her inner walls seemed 8801eaa41c to echo the sensation. Reflexively contracting, her tight folds bit down harder 209e6b5324 on him each time, nearly driving him mad.9a7d3a456cae372ef5b2
Unable to hold back, 245953e520 he kissed her hard—almost 41d151529f biting her—then immediately regretted 3ca0e1a8c4 it.9beaa411dce57b8bc62b

He wanted to leave a love mark ebdbdff427 on her nape, to grip her hidden e85f7826b4 curves through fabric he’d never seen beneath—but 306ddddc94 he restrained himself to the very end. The only thing he should ever leave 827fb15551 inside her was the cloudy fluid rendered f568b881e5 useless by a contraception potion.2657beeb8570e9677d0f
Still, his hips ached with the cee22aec06 urge to dig deeper, and the 25f5c4f886 desperate movements continued with effort.44a3e591e76e54b2bb5a

“Ah, ngh, more…!”ad490bb96845d298723c
Her slender legs wrapped 73a1855d4a around his thighs, as 80f3783381 if urging him to 05238ba0c5 bury himself deeper. With no time to ed01b836d2 interpret the true meaning, ab764a9c16 their bodies tangled as 91c665be3a if crushed together. Squish, squish—the wet sound 9fe70df564 of her lubrication seeping b959ba142b from her vagina echoed 447f85fd49 on. As those obscene, sticky sounds built, his sharp jaw clenched—and then, unable 69ae66e88f to hold back any longer, he released, flooding her depths with warmth.764ab477ae113e7c1bd6

Haa, haa… The ragged 51aec49b45 breathing of the two 986d453259 intertwined around each other’s 5e5a6c19b9 ears, out of sync.601eb5332e1359ff7f06
Maybe it was because she be636d7c26 responded so well, but the 76ef0d4fdf primal pleasure didn’t feel bad. If he said he didn’t fb5f026091 feel guilty for enjoying such 228b374405 delight through her, it would 278e9a8702 be a lie. Still… wasn’t 281b96e56e it what fc2d7173f4 she wanted?dd17d356fbafaf6b48d7

With that justification, he began 05078003fe to move slowly again. The shallow thrusts, squeezing out the a50180c678 last of what remained inside the c2980971ad softened flesh, continued in a sluggish 20396d7bcf rhythm—too awkward to be called afterglow.4746651e737373c6eb86

Without hesitation, a8a4c90607 he pulled 328f965da0 out. Using the linen from the nightstand, he 3e13c9b51c wiped his penis clean, and straightened the 757deb54b7 robe he never fully removed. Any sign of the lust that surged 6a852861df moments ago was now completely gone.8b20ba24b03b8bb45a6f

Not a single strand out of place in aa39db84af his neatly parted golden hair, the metal-rimmed glasses 99717c366f adding an air of trustworthiness to his features.
