ETDO Chapter 23

Ethan smirked. A charming smile spread across his sculpted, handsome face. 

This madman. 

I glared at him, disgusted by his absurd words.

‘I definitely locked it earlier, so how…?’

Ethan walked briskly towards me and casually sat down on the edge of the bed as if it were his own. He stared at me, ignoring my flinch as I quickly scooted back.

“I heard you were bedridden all day. Did I torment you that much?”

How could he say such a thing…?!

If he saw the state of my body, he wouldn’t be so flippant. However, I hesitated, unsure whether I should retort.

Suddenly, Ethan’s hand reached out and grabbed my robe, pulling it down, exposing my shoulders. Startled, I reflexively clutched at the silk robe.

He swiftly grabbed my hands, his gaze lingering on the bruises and hickeys that marred my exposed shoulders and the marks on my neck. He clicked his tongue.

“I see, I certainly worked very hard last night.”

He looked at me, breathless, and asked,

“Does it hurt?”

I hesitated for a moment, then cautiously nodded. It was the truth. My whole body ached as if I had been thoroughly beaten. Ethan softly called my name, seeing me cowering, unable to look him in the eye.

“Lily.”

I hesitantly looked up at him, and his bright blue eyes met mine, unwavering. Unlike yesterday, when they had gleamed with lustful madness, they were now calm and clear.

“Let me make one thing perfectly clear. I will never give you up.”

My heart pounded in my chest.

What? Give me up?

What was this man, who looked exactly like my husband, talking about?

Why, why me?

As I stared at him in confusion, he calmly spoke again.

“I will continue to sleep with you. I will make sure you experience such satisfying climaxes every time that you won’t be able to think of anything else.”

My jaw dropped. He spoke so casually, as if it were the most normal thing in the world, despite the fact that his words would have gotten him publicly stoned in the square if anyone else heard them.

“So don’t try to avoid me. Ever. I will be on your bed every day, panting like a dog in heat, and fucking you.”

I was speechless, stunned by his outrageous declaration, which went far beyond anything I could have imagined. So this man was saying he would repeat last night’s events every single day? And on the Duchess’s bed, no less.

“Why…?”

I couldn’t understand it. 

Why, why me? What about his fiancée?

Ethan spoke, gazing directly into my trembling eyes.

“Because I like you. Because sex with you drives me crazy. Enough to make me lose control and go wild like last night, which is rare for me.”

He brushed back his golden hair and added,

“Arthur made the right choice. There has never been a woman as much to my liking as you. That’s why I can never let you go. You are Arthur’s wife, but from now on, you are also my woman.”

What kind of twisted logic was this? 

It was one thing after another. I spoke, my voice trembling. There was something crucial we needed to discuss, something really important.

“What about Arthur… what are you going to do about Arthur?”

I barely managed to meet Ethan’s calm, scrutinizing gaze. Though my whole body trembled from the shock of his blunt and intense declaration, I tried my best to maintain my composure.

“Well, what should we do about him?”

“…A-About Arthur…”

The thought of Arthur’s kind smile filled me with guilt, and my heart pounded in my chest. I lowered my head for a moment to hide my turbulent emotions. I had spent the entire day agonizing over this, and I finally reached a decision. I had to tell Ethan now.

“Please don’t tell him a-anything yet.”

Despite my efforts to speak firmly, my voice trembled at the end. Putting on a brave face, I cut myself off abruptly and looked up at Ethan.

The man who had made me betray the one who saved me from drowning in debt and loved me,  sat before me, wearing the exact same face as my husband.

There was no point in pushing the blame at this point. It was all pointless, no matter whose fault it was.

Even if Ethan was undeniably at fault, could I honestly swear before God that I was completely innocent?

While claiming to love my husband, I had secretly looked at a man who looked exactly like him with desire. I had been momentarily captivated by his wild charm, my heart fluttering. And what about my sin of enjoying sex with him?

I had refused him, but at the same time, I hadn’t resisted completely. I might have initially protested, but deep down, I knew I had thoroughly enjoyed it.

Sex with the man I had secretly fantasized about had been more pleasurable than I had imagined, and that much more satisfying.

Could I truly refuse this man, and the pleasure he offered, from now on? I couldn’t confidently say yes.

The lustful and immoral desire that had been hidden within me, finally awakened, was slowly consuming me, both physically and mentally.

Had their identical appearance unknowingly erased my resistance?

Had my willful ignorance, pretending not to know he wasn’t my husband, simply been a flimsy defense mechanism, a way to deceive myself?

It was a pathetic excuse for unethical behavior. Even as a Beaufort, I couldn’t escape the moral constraints imposed by this society.

But I wanted to maintain at least a minimum of human decency towards Arthur, the man I loved. Even if it meant hiding my own immorality.

Ethan silently watched me as my lips pressed firmly together. He seemed to be thinking about something for a moment, then nodded.

“Alright.”

From then on, Ethan confidently visited my unlocked bedroom every night. And as if it were his rightful place, he would take the spot next to me and have his way with me. As if I were his wife.

He seemed very pleased that my resistance, whether direct or indirect, had vanished.

Moreover, I couldn’t bring myself to refuse Ethan after that night. Now that I was aware of the shameful desires I had been suppressing, it was inevitable. Like a parrot, my mind still knew I should refuse, but my body wouldn’t cooperate.

Aside from his identical appearance to Arthur, the primal pleasure Ethan gave me was too intense. I crumbled helplessly before it, feeling like this was what it meant to be physically consumed by lust.

Fundamentally, Ethan enjoyed rough and aggressive sex. And the problem was, that was exactly what captivated me. Sleeping with him, a man so unlike the gentle and tender Arthur, made my mind go blank.

He seemed to be making an effort not to go wild with the same frenzy as he had been on that first night, but his insistent pursuit of my pleasure remained unchanged.

As if bringing me to climax was his sole mission in life, he was relentless. He employed all sorts of positions and techniques, reveling in the novel thrills.

“To think my brother’s wife was such a lustful woman.”

I was sitting on Ethan’s lap, my back against his chest. A full-length mirror stood before us, reflecting our image.

I felt a pang of embarrassment at the sight of my exposed lower body, my legs spread wide, and I wanted to close them, but it was no use. His hands held my thighs firmly in place, like the forelegs of a praying mantis that had caught its prey. Our lower bodies were already a mess of slick fluids and semen.

“You act demure on the outside, but you’re quite the opposite.”

His hard cock parted my slick folds and thrust inside with a thwack, the movement swift and forceful. He smirked as he watched the lewd spectacle reflected in the mirror, but I was too exhausted to respond.

He seemed to deliberately choose these explicit, revealing positions that made me squirm, forcing me to watch our reflection as he took pleasure in my shame. And he always demanded my feedback, my assessment of his performance.

“Haa…! Stop! Please…!”

“You shouldn’t tell such lies while you’re dripping wet, begging to be fucked like this.”

He suddenly stood up, lifting me with him. Before I could react, he placed me on the soft wool carpet in front of the mirror.

He pressed down hard on my back as I knelt there on all fours, like an animal. His knees pushed my legs apart as if to tear them open. His large member parted my folds and thrust inside again, my buttocks raised high.

He began thrusting forcefully. As I squirmed, trying to raise myself up, his hand pushed down hard on the back of my head.

“Ow!”

He thrust into me with brutal force, as if determined to impale me with his penis. My legs trembled, unable to withstand the violent thrusts from behind. I was already exhausted from the hours of sex that had been going on all evening. I was at my limit, both physically and emotionally.

“Ah… No…! Ethan, stop, please…!”

I finally cried out, pleading with him. I couldn’t take it anymore. I didn’t want to give Ethan what he wanted, but I couldn’t help myself. He took particular pleasure in my tearful pleas, brought on by the extreme pleasure he forced upon me.

“Beg, what do you want me to do?”

Ethan asked, gripping my hips tightly, grinding his tip against my cervix. He watched my contorted expression in the mirror.

“Tell me exactly what you want. Then I’ll consider whether to grant your wish or not.”

I bit my lip, looking at his amused expression. Unlike me, on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion, he was still full of energy.
