‘Thud’
As the door to Aqualina’s room closed behind him, Aether couldn’t help but mumble to himself, “Is she really going to send me to a brothel?” His face was a picture of disbelief and shock. The thought of such an extreme measure left him flabbergasted.
To be honest, he had hoped for a different outcome….
Perhaps Aqualina would treat him for his ‘innocence’ by teaching him explicit things (nothing more than theoretical lessons on a board, of course)…. or maybe even hugging him or getting close in a more intimate, yet innocent, way. He had never anticipated that she would jump straight to something as extreme as sending him to a brothel.
‘Damn man!’ Aether clicked his tongue in annoyance and was just about to leave when,
“Aether…”
He turned around to see Aria peeking out from her room, her face etched with worry.
Aether grinned inwardly, then put on a slightly sad yet happy expression as he walked towards her, “Hello, Madam Aria.”
However, instead of greeting him back, Aria grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into her room.
“….” A golden-haired figure watched this scene silently from a distance.
Inside Aria’s room, the atmosphere shifted dramatically. The dim lighting cast a warm glow on the soft furnishings, and Aether couldn’t help but feel a surge of heat as he noticed Aria’s appearance. She was wearing a simple, flowing dress instead of the academy’s uniform, which highlighted her natural beauty and made her seem more approachable, yet tantalizingly out of reach.
‘Gulp’
She looked really… Hot MILF!!
Even though they were alone in the room, Aether was the only one feeling a little hot under the collar. Aria, being centuries old, didn’t have any of those inappropriate thoughts crossing her mind.
She motioned for him to sit down on a chair while she sat across from him and asked, “D-Did she hurt you?”
Aether knew she was worried about him, so he put on a fake smile and said, “I am fine!”
But Aria noticed his forced smile and the word ‘fine’ pierced her heart…. She knew it was anything other than fine. Biting her lip, she asked with even more concern, “Tell me the truth, Aether… Please… Think of me as your mother.”
Hearing that, Aether’s eyes widened in horror, ‘Mother? Hell no! We don’t need to enter that territory’ he screamed inwardly, but he maintained his fake smile, “I am really fine, Madam—”
“Just call me Aria”
Aether hesitated a little. Seeing his reluctance, Aria placed her tender hand on Aether’s lap and gently said, with a motherly look, “It’s fine Aether. If you are worried about others, then when we are alone, you can call me Aria… there is no status between us.”
Still, Aether hesitated.
Aria’s face turned a little sad, hoping that she and Aether would grow closer.
“A-Aria…” Aether finally said, his face shy.

“Good,” Aria nodded with a tender expression, then moved her chair a little closer to him.
‘Okay… What the fuck is happening?’ Aether thought, watching as she moved closer. His heart pounded, and he could feel a bead of sweat forming on his forehead.
“Now tell me, did she hurt you?” Aria asked again, her gaze warm and inviting.
“….” Aether didn’t answer.
Aria sighed, thinking, ‘He is really loyal to his master…’ and patted his head, “It must be hard…” she said, thinking Aether was being forced by the Villainess Aqualina.
She even imagined Aqualina’s haughty smile as she held Aether by the collar and whipped him, like some BDSM scenario.
“Yeah, it’s getting hard…” Aether mumbled inwardly as his eyes fell on her slim waist, accentuated by her form-fitting dress. The fabric seemed to caress every curve, igniting a fire within him. Shaking his head, he resolved not to let this tantalizing opportunity go to waste.
“HIKK!!”
A surprised sound echoed in the room.
“A-Aether?” Aria’s voice wavered with surprise as Aether enveloped her in a sudden embrace. Just as she was about to push him away, Aether’s touch sent a rush of warmth coursing through her, stirring sensations she hadn’t felt in years, “Let me be… even for a few seconds,” he murmured, his breath brushing against her skin. freewёbnoνel.com
Noticing his trembling body, Aria sighed and pulled him closer, her touch infused with a mix of maternal care.
[+200 Affection]
Aether noticed that the affection was not increasing.
His face was pressed against her abdomen, separated only by the thick fabric of her dress. If he raised his head, his head might touch her bosom, which would be a problem because now was not the time to push her too much. He enjoyed the warmth of her abdomen and, as he did, he heard,
“Ba-dump, Ba-dump, Ba-dump….”
Aether frowned at the sound of her heart beating faster. ‘Why?’ he wondered.
The reason was simple: This was Aria’s first time being this close to the opposite gender. Although she was married, she had never allowed Alaric to touch her…. all because of the Principal.
An unspoken problem in the family!
Nevertheless,
Even though she treated Aether like a child, the mere proximity of his touch ignited a primal response within her. Her pulse quickened, her hands trembled, hoping Aether wouldn’t notice, but unfortunately,
“A-Aria… Why is your heart beating faster?” Aether asked with an innocent expression.
Aria immediately flinched as if caught off guard and pushed Aether away, quickly changing the topic, “I-it’s almost time for bed… S-so, see you later!” She then hurriedly pushed him out of her room.
Thud
She locked the door and placed her hand on her chest, still feeling her heart racing, ‘W-what is happening to me?’ Suddenly, an image of Aether’s innocent face popped into her mind and then,

She immediately slapped her face and decided to take a shower when she noticed a lingering smell of Aether on her clothes.
Meanwhile,
Aether, standing outside, smirked, ‘Good~ Everything is fine~’ he thought with a happy face. Just as he was about to move, m _v,l_e _mp|y|r chapter
“What are you doing here?”
Hearing a calm voice, Aether flinched and looked back to see a golden-haired girl, a.k.a., Helena Sunfire.
Aether calmed down and said with a stern face, “Hello–”

His voice trailed off when he saw the notification and looked at Helena, who was still waiting for his answer with her arms folded under her bosom.
“My name is Aether—-”

“….” Aether stopped himself and looked around to see if anyone else was there, but there was no one in the corridor except him and Helena.
“What happened?” Helena asked, snapping her fingers in front of Aether’s face.
“H-Huh? Nothing,” Aether answered, feeling awkward as he looked at Helena.
“I asked you what you are doing here,” she repeated with an impatient expression.
“Well, I was…”

“I was helping…”

“… Helping Madam Aria since she…”

“… asked me to arrange her wardrobe.”
