CH 16

He felt something was wrong when he inserted his dick. 

He felt agitated and distorted by the remnants of the curse that was subsiding in him. It was as if sparks were splattered over the oil, and the subdued madness was revived by lust. Leonis was well aware that it was dangerous, but his lust for Celia had driven him insane.

While the curse was eaten away, the lust that had grown in Leonis spread. Only then did Leonis understand why his father was so obsessed with his mother, to the point where she was afraid of him.

He was also part of the curse. 

Celia was on the verge of climax when he noticed.

The moment Leonis was about to fall into despair due to the irresistible lust, Celia reached her climax. Even though she was lovely enough to find pleasure in his arms, Leonis was afraid of his own violent desire for her.

If he ever hurt Celia, he would rip himself apart. However, everything changed when Celia’s body curled up in her climax. The refreshing energy emanating from the part they were joined easily overwhelmed the curse that encircled Leonis’ body.

Leonis, who had been in a foul mood, moaned huskily and rapturously when he reached his climax.

‘What is this?’

The madness had gone, but his desire for Celia remained. Though this time, he could hug Celia without hurting her.

“Ahh, yes… Not yet…”

Celia shook her head and said no when he stroked her sensitive region since her body had just reached climax, but whenever he made her feel pleasure, refreshing energy rose. 

Leonis intuitively knew that the key to breaking the curse was to make Celia feel good. The curse appeared to be completely suppressed if the energy rising from her body became stronger.

Besides, it could make her happy, so it was killing two birds with one stone! 

“Aaaah!”

He came to a conclusion when his mind was clouded by lust and his body moved faster. Her beautiful face was red when he shamelessly lowered her back and made Celia feel good.

“Uhh, ngghh! Ah! Aaahh!”

Leonis’ heart was even more sweetly filled with shame, pleasure, and embarrassment. Celia was the one who would eventually captivate him even if she was not a person who has the power to suppress the curse.

Leonis became inebriated from the refreshing energy that rises when Celia feels good. It wasn’t quite the same as the madness that demands blood, but the lust was close enough to drive him insane.

Whether his body knew that it was a way to live to suppress the curse, Leonis instinctively moved in the direction of Celia’s sensitive region.

“Ah! Ah, ah ah ah.”

Celia’s face was flushed with bewilderment at the seemingly endless pleasure. It was nice to feel good, but she had no idea how she would react to such a lustful stimulus.

Celia was dyed with ecstatic pleasure by Leonis, as if she was picking flowers in sweet honey.

Leonis was thinking that the reality was nothing more than a beast embracing its prey and continuing their relationship. 

More, Celia… I had to make her feel it. It was not just because of the curse. The way Celia felt was so ecstatic that it melted his heart.

The Duke’s bedroom was empty. The servants knew that Duke Leonis was going to sleep with his wife the day before, but they also knew that he would end the night quickly and return to his bedroom.

Since there was a problem with the curse.

Leonis started his day by waking up at the crack of dawn and heading down to the dungeon. He suppresses the curse by torturing and killing one of the prisoners.

Leonis was the one who said that he would not sleep in the Duchess’s room, saying that the curse might have an early effect. 

Naturally, his deputy and servants knew that he would be in the Duke’s room. That’s what they were assuming even though the Duke didn’t come down when it was time to come down. An unexpected incident occurred when the servant checked the Duke’s room.

“Nghh, Mhh! Ah…… No more…. Ahhh, ahhh!”

The servant’s eyes widened at the strange sound that was leaking from the room next door that was coming from the Duchess’s room. It seemed that the Duke was still spending time with the Duchess without completing his state affairs.

It was normal to act as if you didn’t know something, but Leonis was not normal. It was a big deal if madness appeared in the vicinity of the Duchess.

But Leonis’ deputy, Peter, who knows why Leonis forced Celia to marry him, stopped it.

“…Don’t disturb His Excellency and get out.”

“Bu-but it’s time…….”

The servant tried to tell about the time, but Peter knew what he was going to say. Peter shook his head resolutely.

He had a good feeling about this. 

He had a hunch that his master had made the right choice.

“I’ll take the responsibility, hurry!”

Sara, who was going to disturb the two of them in the next room, heard Peter’s words urging the servant to quietly leave the Duke’s bedroom.

Celia’s moaning continued echoing in the Duchess’ room.

✦ ✦ ✦

“Ngh, nghh! Ahh…. Why is it getting bigger…. Ahh, Ahh! No.”

When it was quiet for a while, she thought they were exhausted and fell asleep. However, a strange moan filled the Duchess’ bedroom once more.

It was Peter who said that he would take responsibility, but he was also anxious. So he ordered a maid to overhear the condition of the room. 

Even a competent maid’s face turned red from embarrassment at the moans from the room. 

“… Are you still there?”

The maid nodded her head with a gentle face. Breakfast had ended, and it was now well past lunchtime. Leonis with monstrous stamina might be fine, but he was worried about the Duchess.

She was just an ordinary woman! Although, being able to suppress Leonis’ curse was far from normal….

“Not yet… He is still in a good mood.”

What Peter was worried about was the risk that Leonis went mad and mistreated Celia. That was why he put the maid in front of the door to eavesdrop. 

In the event of an emergency, he was going to order the knights into the bedroom. Because it was more important to save the Duchess even if it was rude.

If Leonis had lost his mind and harmed Celia, in one in a thousand chances, he would never forgive himself.

“…Are you sure?”

Peter asked, and the maid responded with a firm nod. 

Even though ‘no’ was said or dislike was expressed, there was a coquettish tone to it. It was as if the Duke was whispering and comforting the Duchess, and the evidence of that was the moaning sound, which seemed to taste ecstasy over and over again.

“Anghh… Haa! Ahhh!”

Even two young people would be physically exhausted. Peter quickly turned around and left the scene.

Even if he was questioned about this, he hoped he would get less scolded.

It was too much to hold out for a long time just to eavesdrop at the door. Peter allowed the maids to change shift every eight hours.

The day after last night passed, and the night followed.

Even though he was cursed, it appeared that the Duke’s excessive desire was finally coming to an end. Celia was crying at dawn and saying she couldn’t do it anymore. Leonis tried to soothe and comfort her until she finally calmed down.

‘Is this real? Did the Duke pass the day without seeing blood?’

The two people on the other side of the door appeared tired and asleep. Peter was informed of this by the maid, but he had no intention of waking the Duke to see the blood.

He didn’t know what kind of power that the Duchess had but it was clear that it worked. It is to suppress madness without killing people.

Peter had his maid listen in on more of the situation in the bedroom before leaving. He hoped that…. his master would be able to escape the curse of blood.

✦ ✦ ✦

How long has it been?

Even in his hazy consciousness, he could tell that the day had passed. He spent a night, a day, and another night with Celia in pleasure.

The most important ritual of his day. His heart sank softly as he realized he had done nothing to suppress the curse of blood by killing people.

But the next thing he knew, the curse was calmer than it had ever been. It didn’t completely disappear from his body, but he’d never been so calm when he had killed hundreds of people.

‘Celia….’

Was it because they had sex? It was hard to think of a reason other than that. Leonis’ heart was filled with emotion. It seemed that he could survive for several days without seeing blood. Leonis had never had such a clear mind.

He had to be wary of the curse ever since his father passed away. Leonis checked to see if Celia was safe. Celia had to deal with himself as a lust-tainted beast. 

In the midst of that, he believed that Celia could only suppress the curse if she felt it, so he was considerate as much as he could… But he was concerned because it was time.

Leonis blushed when he realized he was asleep with his dick still inside her. It seems to have been like this for the past day.

Whereas Celia fell asleep in the middle of sex, Leonis fell asleep with his member was still inside her.

Although he was distraught by lust and the curse, he felt sorry for Celia.

‘I’m going to take this out first.’

He slowly moved his back and tried to not wake Celia. He could see from yesterday’s events how much he sucked Celia’s nipple until it turned to dark pink.

Leonis swallowed dry saliva because it looked strange. Despite all the vivid memories, his lust for Celia stood up stiffly even after such a time. 

“Ha….”

Celia tossed and turned as the large thing that had been inside her last night escaped. His mouth drooled as he saw her beautiful breasts bouncing. Leonis gulped down and pulled out his penis. It seemed to stand up even harder.
