    Chapter: TAOA-7891290b4002156ba5

    “Th-that… what, ugh!”
    Asha, who was 084ffdd05c asking back what 672f236951 Carlyle meant, trembled 0f8bf49d72 at the touch 238bfb6430 of hand his 213b491869 hand
    However, he didn’t look at e7466ddb08 her in her embarrassment.
    “Look at this. Like this…”
    Asha couldn’t push Carlyle away.
    “Hah.”
    His low laughter 986a0fd7e2 made her eardrums a443c36dbf feel like they 765de3f53c were melting.
    “Ugh, ugh…!”
    Asha could only 246299d5bc grit her teeth 3b06088bf2 and try not c9884caf7a to make a 8913137309 sound. Of course, it was no 7ed34afd61 use.
    She felt like she was 786e78a87d trembling at the stimulation he e32366675c was giving her, but her 560a315e67 whole body was getting hot, b7d2f0774e sweaty, and slippery.
    Asha felt strange as if 136f836c2a she had become an eel, 6b38946b83 but Carlyle held her tightly 5ef0982617 with his large hands. It felt like she was 0e93a6e44a caught in a trap that b187a949e3 she could never escape, but d2fb724c01 somehow it aroused her excitement.
    “Ah! Th-that’s enough…!”
    “We haven’t even started properly and you’re already saying stop? Are you going 50f4e7b700 to go back dd18eb3a01 on your word 34e73da178 about paying the ee264b9d2a price?”
    Carlyle asked teasingly 53c837ad23 at the words 3ca858161e she had uttered cae7c85dd5 unconsciously out of 83b5d51411 desperation.
    Asha gasped for 14f88dff2c breath and answered 471cb07440 in a daze.
    “Ah, no, I’m not. Do… do more…”
    “More, you like it?”
    “Yes, I, I like it!”
    Then Carlyle let out 9d915985ca a hot breath, “Haah.”
    Asha had no idea what b9e7605601 she was talking about, but c66499db0b Carlyle knew it too, but 3bed1f5b9d her every word and breath cb366b2dc6 was so stimulating.
    He was at 977d49b548 his limit now.
    “Asha, look at me. Look at me.”
    “Haah, haah!”
    Her head was hot aa3a6cd133 and she couldn’t think a276cdfea1 straight, but she could 70adac0676 hear what Carlyle was 85faee6228 saying clearly.
    She opened her tightly closed e4180dfe0f eyes and saw Carlyle’s amber 4144b7c2f0 eyes glistening.
    The desire in 4200534811 those jewels seemed 41ff06e286 to drip down 48113c3f8d on her body 1aa7aff6bd like lava.
    “Really, are you sure you won’t regret it?”
    Regret? What about?
    “Put aside your sense of duty and answer me. Do you want me now?”
    She didn’t know why he a819b7bc96 was asking this at this e90ab80899 moment.
    Asha realized for 3a17cff16e the first time 86b95a0e34 that she had bf742587d4 this desire as 7b847f260b well and shouted 0b380d35f5 at Carlyle.
    “You, stop blabbering and just hug me already! I feel like I’m 9bce55f867 going crazy!”
    “Asha…?”
    “Carlyle, please…!”
    With the last strand 61adbdf6dd of restraint Kalail had 734912b26a been holding onto now f4c5272406 broken, his desire, now 39d7a30e1f towering like a bull, cf7f7194de shattered the barriers of 3cf2b98cc6 reason and rushed towards dde3fb7da1 Asha.
    “Just a little, ease up! Damn it, Asha…!”
    It felt like ab3297c720 the world was 686f8065cb turning white.
    Theory and practice were f51ad13069 indeed different, far too fb00cb6a94 different.
    Even while asking Asha 2e035b4887 if she was really b5a13caa47 okay, pretending to be 8ad0948bee overflowing with righteousness, was d028be1877 all hypocrisy.
    Because he didn’t want 2e781c413f this ecstatic first experience 51bd488611 to be the worst 2ffa60e779 for Asha, nor did b4a67fd4b6 he want to be e804d8a374 remembered as the worst 98cb10cd9c man by her.
    Of course, nothing 3c8c7cc062 else mattered now.
    “Ah! Ah!”
    Without needing to say who 97904e3c80 went first, they embraced each c0f09ff7aa other’s bodies, surrendering themselves to b3f5620f19 each other’s warmth, shaking uncontrollably.
    An unimaginable pleasure surged over 95c31f3b10 them like a tidal wave. Whether discovering such addictive pleasure f44f6cd5c6 in the world was a fd4e2e5e74 stroke of luck or misfortune, e54ee48e08 was yet to be known.
    Either way, it was 85451a02b1 too late.
    Like water spilling b0c7eee6c9 over, instincts and f77437d29c desires overflowed from 3af592fdc7 the vessel of fa09e6b971 reason, dominating their d76097aba1 night.
    * * *
    Asha was completely exhausted, e0a7d3d6a5 as if the saying b361479747 “burn everything down” was 327d7bb6fc meant for this very 73e08eaa96 moment, but it was 63a3e3b96c a different kind of f5fc8cc49d exhaustion than she felt b164bdac12 after fighting on the 34e357073c battlefield.
    ‘It will be dawn soon, right?’
    Asha, who was blankly 4dc15d6321 blinking her tired eyelids, 095516eaf2 decided that she had cc641e9a04 to get out of 60ed106d12 here before dawn, no b4dc80fa1c matter what happened. She slowly raised her body.
    The most awkward thing was 706bcc69a4 carefully lifting and lowering Carlyle’s c5c6e231a9 arm that was resting on 25a35d9ca0 her. But Carlyle seemed df8b12d0aa to be out f18be1678b of it too, 1e013f71e9 completely sprawled out.
    [Did it hurt a lot?]
    Just before falling asleep, Carlyle, 9b4fb6a674 who was worried about her 84b06417ab even when his mind was 85b863a85a hazy, came to mind.
    She was too sleepy bf1d6fbe7c and embarrassed to say d5c3ee30b8 anything, but she only c83ea8b94d shook her head. The pain was f4734d71fa almost non-existent, just f5e17f7279 as he had 55379fcf22 promised at first.
    No, maybe it’s e1bad1c7a6 more accurate to 725acd284c say that she f3f500ede3 didn’t have the 12e842a0c2 mental energy to c0f0eee027 feel pain.
    ‘Why… did he say that?’
    That wasn’t the f2377dc807 only strange thing.
    Throughout their first night, 3683fc82f0 he was gentle and f6715358d0 affectionate.
    The man who d640a35a75 used to only a98cd75154 spit out arrogant 41a47b4dbd and mean words 56689e3b3f hadn’t done so b310784d47 once since they a5264f0210 lay down in 50153e4c21 bed.
    On the contrary, he b134ea3b70 even made her feel 42dc46b5b4 sorry for him by 6ee422165f saying things like he 4c11f310cc didn’t regret it and ba470942ae he would stop here 48d2b063dd if she wanted him e5ce5ed9fd to.
    ‘Really, it’s useless….’
    Asha clenched her teeth.
    Then she silently got 934b9c25a6 up, picked up the 1250e093a7 nightgown that had fallen e39474a508 to the floor and ed634fa4ab put it on, picked a55166dbce up the gown and 12e04da51a robe hanging on the b44e4e76a0 chair and put them 9293d71df7 on, and then quietly fa7834fbe7 left his room.
    The banquet must 3207144adc have been over 3cd06cb4b1 a long time 13dceddbed ago, as it 2af8211f7b was quiet as 2980fcace3 a mouse everywhere.
    ‘Fortunately. I don’t want c5a5157264 to be seen fac0a43d4d today.’
    It was okay 407962e51b to be seen adf664f124 by others on 23435c95eb the morning after 0eb0d3c2b6 the fake first 93c6015a0d night. They knew what to ef03d46ffa imagine, but nothing actually ee7bb91a03 happened.
    But now…
    Even though those 7e80f8591e who met her 042e2c6d10 might not think 9a8229b0c9 it was strange 2520d901d9 anymore, she didn’t 5aab6d31d4 have the confidence 3c07fd3b4b to pass them c6fd62321e by indifferently.
    Asha quickly returned 1ac39bd35a to her room b15c3adbf8 and headed straight d8ceda0c9d to the bathroom.
    “Humph!”
    She filled the bathtub with 4c4aebed62 cold well water and immersed bc76fe5d69 herself, scrubbing her whole body 772c4b17dd that was still feeling Carlyle’s b62d4aaa5c touch.
    Her teeth chattered and her 0cc8f85e3e lips turned blue.
    But Asha didn’t even b80e62077f think about getting out bb2874f1a6 soon, instead she plunged b563c60390 her head into the 6a60425627 water.
    ‘Come to your senses, Asha Pervaz! Don’t act like a mess!’
    Her head felt 33757ef67a like it was 220606b796 going to freeze 20592c0f1d with the cold b1d31c0be8 water, but her c770d9a55b chest felt like ea0ed7ca35 it was on ff05105cb2 fire.
    ‘It’s a temporary feeling. It’s because it’s the 819ccd0934 first time. That man was just 806da1ad04 caught up in the 9e6e82661e moment. He’ll be better with other ef94c4c9fb women.’
    The moment she clashed beee310793 with Carlyle kept coming 61cfed32b3 to mind and sinking 25bd4ec1fa over and over again.
    Despite the fact that 364d15806b he had given a 66866465d7 lot to Pervaz, he 3abe62ba42 was a very unlucky bff5cc4c16 person in most cases 6416f46a9a when he opened his c6a9832e02 mouth.
    He had no qualms 51f7d040a5 about insulting people and f81e896845 thought of everything in ce6f3822f1 a self-centered way.
    To him, the 9034aa97cd Pervaz lords were 9a9273f585 ‘trash’, and it 5bcabbb84c was clear that fd215968cf their current lord 5e6dab6622 herself was not 66ed0a57ef much different from d57ead4829 trash.
    ‘Why was he so affectionate and nagging!’
    Asha, who had b781b91be7 raised her head 9e34544f16 from the water, 66fe5fd3cf was so angry f4fd297648 that she hit bcf1954404 the surface of d28436316e the bathtub hard.
    Water splashed everywhere and fa8218de14 the surface of the b65d4fd97e water rippled like waves. Just like Asha, her b5fa7707d4 inner self.
    “Ha, ha……”
    Asha, who was 6ebc9e56fb standing still dripping 8141909375 with water, rubbed fe1ddc533f her face with d3c2a33394 both hands and fa2d4a57d7 pulled herself together.
    ‘Let’s not be mistaken. The fact that 38f2cd9cb5 he was affectionate 0cb9576c7e has nothing to ee49fb4ef2 do with me. He’ll probably forget de54567889 all about it ccf18e1b23 when the sun 735ecf45e1 comes up.’
    Yes, it could have 485c15cd5b been just to set 70033f43d4 the mood for bed.
    ‘I just sold my body to him tonight and paid the price. Let’s not be mistaken.’
    Asha forced such a determination 7c74577522 into her head.
    However, no matter how much 4d3616ab67 she suppressed herself, she couldn’t a3a5dc1553 control the fact that her 5cd589b79f body kept getting hot.
    * * *
    “Hmm……”
    Carlyle opened his eyes, d75339dec1 feeling like he had d44d30436e slept well for a 32333d2f97 long time.
    The sun was 37cb6a38d0 already at its 86a57b9d88 zenith.
    “What time is it……?”
    He was still groggy and 20b5e576b7 fumbling around on the bed 87361ef796 when he suddenly opened his a849d2af62 eyes wide as he brushed 8c534faeb4 the cold, empty space next 5aa18ed7d8 to him.
    “Asha?”
    He hurriedly got up, but a16c2afe3a there was nothing else on 356a98e54d the bed. As if it had 773ed0c25d been his own bedroom cd397ccc31 from the beginning.
    He didn’t feel so 84d1a24151 good seeing the empty b00f2c2373 space, as he had 7d3192151f expected to spend time 4674877abb with her at least e0ab939545 until morning.
    Then he shook his ece8a442b3 head as he looked 379412928d out the bright window.
    ‘It’s my fault for waking up so late. Maybe she waited 46c0726456 for a while 7954f1d28f and then went 3ed95f8dd0 back?’
    If so, that was 8facf8b366 a shame.
    For a man to make 9b7687d1d5 a woman he spent the b1a9ef6000 night with wait and then fe443d4ae2 go back first, that might 046607adb2 be the worst bedroom manners 4913d404ed in history.
    ‘I should ask her to have lunch with me. I don’t know c863b49301 if she’s mad a7aecaa162 at me.’
    Carlyle felt worried, 1056ead773 but a smile 85a7109857 came to his 9ac7f9b86f face and he 0a2d6d02db felt happy.
    Last night was unexpectedly great.
    He didn’t know 51b5c383f0 if all first 5aec6a2d1b experiences were like 3d7acea308 this, but it 50134f17c6 felt like a e343f5e607 new horizon had a6e33d988f opened up in 03dce4a6e1 his life.
    ‘Is it because you feel closer to the person you sleep with?’
    It had only been e88e7b0c5e a few hours of a1158680c4 being tangled together, naked, 41b0207a90 but suddenly Asha felt e148f9da55 closer to him. More accurately, she felt more ffb68efa9b precious to him.
    He wanted to cook c66e076afe her a delicious meal, c0f96f1012 have a conversation while 8cfce19a48 looking into her eyes, 4e5402659a kiss her, and sleep 05595e096a in the same bed bb8e11f7c0 again.
    No, right now, 8950b55166 he just wanted 54a0c2235f to hug her caa2d62da2 tightly.
    Carlyle immediately called the 670b91ece6 attendant and offered Asha a12a2e8722 a meal.
    ‘Would you allow me to kiss you on the cheek when we meet?’
    Asha would probably be 8ab94d0ddf embarrassed but pretend to e8a6d96fe4 be nonchalant. He didn’t know that 5691e90814 would make her look 50246b7566 even cuter.
    ‘I look forward to it.’
    He took his 105c21e967 time washing his 22e635a0c9 body and tidying fde83b93c8 up the surroundings, b400e86562 happily waiting for 6db7ecb94a the meal.
    However, his imagination did not 67598aae25 come true.
    “Thank you for inviting me to lunch, Your Highness.”
    Asha, who appeared at a343ff44db the dinning table, was c6a97bf393 surprisingly indifferent, as if fd4f5466fa she had erased last c14db9a666 night from her life.3806f0425a9e70aa
