“Ah, mm…!”551d7e02566e8139aac0
As he thrust his 9c84ef61e9 hips deeper into his 1036fe83ac wife, he found it 8dfb658f3d strange.66a6f6a5462570f4b416

His wife was the only 7afaf7d7a9 saint on the continent. She was indifferent to d613b76342 her own desires and 04679d8626 never asked for anything. Even after returning to secular life, he’d bbef609a2d hoped that would change, but over nearly 88941ea07c twenty years, she hadn’t changed at all.b7625fd66d5bbfb21da1
She never a8950786f1 initiated intimacy. She had been the one to suggest that their designated bed-sharing nights should include 2cc34760f7 actual intercourse, but that was probably just to appear like a “real married couple.”65e71cc5e2fb4c8a0978

Naturally, compared to his 0e400c7770 desire, their union always eacbbebfb0 felt dry. It likely only caused 0fc93458f1 her pain, never pleasure. Maybe she saw 2da763de91 it as a 9f61f70ff5 form of penance.1d856461b7a570f2a9ae
Raised to obey without question, his 8b57d23d8b wife probably viewed intimacy as just d202cb34cf another duty of marriage—and so she 89f492c22e went along with it reluctantly. That must 94153557b3 have been 3686d56e64 the case…7a2b9f008ecf45e206ea

Slowing his thrusts, 412f14a53f he began to fdb2206526 roll his hips 985eb69d14 gently. As his penis stirred against her 108b66e221 inner walls, a faint wave appeared 877ae52da8 on his wife’s face.7895bb4231b63003338b

As he stared blankly, her delicate 50cee71640 arms reached into the air. Their intimacy had always been focused a850cb8cc3 on insemination, but now she seemed b17de8bca5 to crave more contact. He had 6f422bcd4b no time 34cd0f09c0 to refuse. Klaus bent down f807978039 and buried his 97fdddc118 wife’s slender body 868cc3c4e8 in his arms. Clenching his hips, he pounded deep, 7eb217abca and the unfamiliar angle sparked a 13c68ce055 rush of pleasure through his veins. Her inner walls seemed c4e98382cd to echo the sensation. Reflexively contracting, her tight folds bit down harder 7a79c9eb40 on him each time, nearly driving him mad.8e2d1636c535968affb2
Unable to hold back, 581f87aa5b he kissed her hard—almost 45578c98a8 biting her—then immediately regretted be8cfea4f7 it.537c8f8ab76e28d6be13

He wanted to leave a love mark 36bfa8db02 on her nape, to grip her hidden 6825182072 curves through fabric he’d never seen beneath—but 3a8622aa8c he restrained himself to the very end. The only thing he should ever leave inside her was 911ae8fe55 the cloudy fluid rendered useless by a contraception potion.1fe146e724c81aae8b04
Still, his hips ached with the 634241695e urge to dig deeper, and the 90041f83f7 desperate movements continued with effort.4f5e44c5c776ab01f71b

Her slender legs wrapped f014f939cd around his thighs, as 5802989d8d if urging him to ef688f1e49 bury himself deeper. With no time to interpret d65dd0e190 the true meaning, their bodies dfa7fdb0f9 tangled as if crushed together. Squish, squish—the wet sound b0a6b8b25e of her lubrication seeping e6f2f8e97e from her vagina echoed d4e81b84af on. As those obscene, sticky sounds built, his sharp 65037bc1d5 jaw clenched—and then, unable to hold back any 4b6185dfcc longer, he released, flooding her depths with warmth.17f9ebba47a47abe6e73

Maybe it was because f4c2f47a6f she responded so well, 08f7629b56 but the primal pleasure f13ca2267c didn’t feel bad. If he said he didn’t 26186e8048 feel guilty for enjoying such 443f3786f2 delight through her, it would 4d9f5864fd be a lie. Still… wasn’t 019e23ab60 it what 9870e9ff41 she wanted?e3f2a47ddc224d2e4f27

With that justification, 9e0838655e he began to 47d3ac04b4 move slowly again. The shallow thrusts, squeezing out the last of d6fbe776b8 what remained inside the softened flesh, continued in aa6d7a3c29 a sluggish rhythm—too awkward to be called afterglow.0cc9171bcef9168d8bac

Not a single strand out of e56631b7ff place in his neatly parted golden b74941e888 hair, the metal-rimmed glasses adding an 1e9a6bbb0a air of trustworthiness to his features. The collar of his shirt and the lapel of his suit were 7443fec32f both perfectly pressed, without a single wrinkle, and the handkerchief chosen by 1b5e48f650 his personal tailor was a tasteful finishing touch to his ensemble.93bcc32bd701557ce080
