Aria was holding Zach’s hand with her fingers gripping his hair. While Zach was squeezing Aria’s breasts, seemingly trying to get her in the mood.
”It’s time to take your panties off,” Zach said with a grin on his face.
”What about you? You haven’t taken off your clothes yet.”
”I was waiting for you to take them off with your tender hands.”
”How romantic of you.” Aria began to strip Zach while kissing him, but she was having trouble doing both things at once, so she stopped kissing him and focused on undressing him.
”How can you do both at once?” she asked curiously.
”You can say I am experienced in taking off girls’ clothes,” Zach said with a proud face.
”I pity the girls who fell for your charm.”
”Hey, that hurts!” Zach pulled Aria’s cheeks and said, “I believe I have become a better person compared to how I was when we first met.”
”Maybe. But I don’t care either way.” Aria shrugged her shoulders and asked, “But I am curious.”
”Hmm?” Zach hummed in amusement and raised his brow as he eagerly waited for Aria to speak.
”If… suppose… umm… argh!” She sighed and asked, “Let’s say if we haven’t met the way we did. And I had met you in the game as Ameria; would you still have fallen in love with me?”
Zach pondered for a while and asked, “I will answer that honestly, but first, you have to answer my question.”
”Shoot.”
”Why would you come into the game as Ameria in the first place? You said you came here because you were feeling lonely or something. So if we had never met before, you wouldn’t meet me in the game since you chose to fool Aurora and joined our party.”
Aria’s face flushed a little, but that didn’t stop her from responding to Zach’s question.
”Forget about all that. I am asking if I somehow ended up joining your party by a miracle. Would you still have fallen for me?”
”I don’t think so, to be honest.” Zach shook his head and said, “When I met you as Ameria, I was suspicious of you, and that’s why I went as far as stabbing you. But looking back at that, I shouldn’t have done that.”
Aria smiled at him after hearing his response.
”You know, there are a very few things I regret, and most of them are about how I treated you.”
Aria hugged Zach and said, “But all that was before you fell in love with me, so it doesn’t matter.”
”I want to talk about a lot of things, but let’s start our dual cultivation. We don’t have much time, and it’s your first time, so I am nervous,” he muttered.
”Why are you nervous?” Aria asked with a curious yet confused look on her face. “You have already slept with two virgin women, so you should be used to taking virginity, right?”
”That’s not how it works. And mind you, when I took Victoria’s virginity, she cried a lot. And I don’t remember anything about my first night with Ruli. So you can say I still hold the same anxiousness I held when I lost my virginity.”
”Hmmm… you don’t have to worry much, to be honest,” Aria reassured in a calm voice.
”Hmm?”
”I mean, I have endured worse pain than that. And I don’t think losing virginity would hurt that much. What does it feel like anyway?”
Zach shrugged and replied, “How would I know? You should have asked Ruli or Victoria.”
”You know, I have never done anything a normal girl would. Like, I have never masturbated or touched myself. So…”
”But you know about all that, right?”
”Indeed,” she nodded.
”So you are not exactly innocent. It’s kind of weird, though… I expected a… nevermind,” he sighed.
Zach pushed Aria onto the bed and pulled her panties in one go.
”Hey!” she yelled with a flushed face and covered her cave with her hand.
”What are you embarrassed about? I have already seen your naked body once, remember? In fact, it was you who showed me.”
”I also remember what you said after that,” she remarked.
’I am not interested in looking at your naked body.’ Zach recalled what he had said to Aria when he accidentally saw her naked in the bathroom.
”Yeah. That’s on my regret list as well. But in my defense, I said that because I was still troubled after finding out that you were my aunt.”
”There is no need to feel bad. I wanted you to notice me, that’s all.”
Zach bumped his forehead on Aria’s forehead and said, “Thank you for stepping into my life. Really, I mean it.”
”…”
”If you weren’t there for me after Aurora went into rehabilitation, I would have gone berserk. You have no idea how much you have helped me, and I promise you that I will make you happy, no matter what happens. I love you more than you think but can’t do anything to prove it. That’s why, I will show you my love during dual cultivation.”
Zach’s sincerity in his voice and the earnest look on his face was enough for Aria to fall in love with him even more.
’Even if we had met in different circumstances. Even if we were related by a different relationship or bond, I would have fallen in love with you, my dear husband,’ Aria uttered inwardly, but she used telepathy to tell that to Zach.
”I know I said I wouldn’t have fallen in love with you if we had met differently, but I think it would have turned out the same eventually. We may have crossed paths before, but perhaps, we would have bumped into each other one day and watched the world together, my lovely wife.”
Zach and Aria hugged each other naked and looked into each other’s eyes before kissing and starting the act called Dual Cultivation.
