The solid body that was entering through an open door stopped.

“......I was wondering where you were.”

The faint, dejected voice made my ears a little sore.

Upon returning to the mansion, I could fully know who Ash was looking for first by hearing that.

Ash took off his overcoat and came towards me, while unbuttoned his cuffs.

I was sitting on the desk in the Oval Office, not on the reception couch.

I opened my mouth thinking that Ash’s wrist, which was revealed by the unbuttoned cuffs, was seductive.

“What have you been doing?”

I didn’t mean to do that, but it just sort of whined.

Ash, who had come to the point, stopped moving for a moment and quickly lowered me.

“Did you wait?”

“.....just wondering what you did outside.”

“Lydia.”

A big hand wrapped around my forehead and swept it lightly. The bangs that tickled the eyes followed smoothly.

“What’s the matter?”

He’s really like a ghost.

Well, this may be because I don’t hide it on my face, but I spoke frankly.

“The Count came today as well.”

“Really?”

Ash swept my hair back a few more times. The calm touch made me feel good.

“I think I’ve given him enough slack....”

“...No, that’s not exactly because of that why I’m doing this.”

Once I saved the Count’s life, I continued my words.

“The count said that I don’t have to come back to the kingdom completely, but to just meet the queen instead.”

“.......”

“He said just once is fine.”

“What do you want to do?”

I raised my eyes. I met the golden pupil staring straight to me, gentle but straight.

I hesitated for a moment and then opened my mouth.

“......I don’t know.”

I don’t know.

This was sincere.

“He said that the queen is sick.”

“.......”

“He said she has a chronic disease. He said her heart is not in good shape. She’s hiding it outside and still doing her duty on the day but no one knows what she will become the next day.”

I don’t think he said anything about the day and the next day, but that’s what he meant anyway.

“That’s why she wants to see me before she dies. Anyway, I’m her biological child.”

“Is that all that Count Suena said?”

“......yes.”

Ash fidgeted with my hair more in the middle, and soon put his hand down.

Unknowingly, when I felt regret, I picked up some documents that Ash had put down on his desk.

I noticed that was what Ash had brought in as he entered the Oval Office.

“What’s this?”

“The count’s background check.”

Ash casually announced the illegal results.

“Want to see?”

No, well......there’s nothing I can do even if I see it but still.

I accepted a bundle of paper. The multi-page document contained quite a few letters.

I flipped through the papers one by one to look at the contents through quick reading.

First of all, the count’s status was true. He is indeed a close aide of the queen.

Besides, according to this document, it was true that there was a twin legend of the royal family of the Kingdom Viroz, and that there was a rebel over the throne.

That’s why it’s ridiculous. No, that’s just no reason.

I rubbed my forehead as if it had been burned by a slight touch of body temperature, and suddenly I reached out my hand, thinking somewhere.

If he did it because he can see it, then me too.

“......what are you doing?”

“Just because.”

I rolled up Ash’s right-hand shirt sleeves on a desk and fiddled with the exposed wrist bone.

I answer as naturally as possible to the question

“Because I can see your wrist bone.”

It wasn’t exactly now, but just a little while ago, when Ash unbuttoned his sleeve, I saw it at first glance, and from then on, I was thinking about it and wanted to touch it.

It might be said that popping out like peach bones stimulated people’s desire to touch (?)

How much was I satisfying my impure desire while groping Ash’s wrist?

Suddenly my forehead felt itchy.

Huh? It tickles? Why.......

“Lydia.”

“......”

“Are you seducing me now?”

Ash’s voice sounded husky.

I knew what it was that tickled my forehead like a feather. It was Ash’s hair.

Oh, no, wait a minute.

I can’t talk to him this close......and seduction?

“What, what seduction?”

“Because your hands are so soft and touch me so intimacy. I feel like I’m being seduced.”

“What so intimacy!”

Ugh, I’ve never touched him so intimacy!

Well......maybe!

I hesitated to protest actively. If I moved here more, I could touch his lips.

Ash whispered, keeping me locked between his arms.

“I was tempted anyway, so I want you to take responsibility.”

“.....”

I mean, why would I seduce.....

If so, wouldn’t you be the beginning of temptation, since you secretly exposed your wrist bones to me?

I hesitated for a moment to say this and then quit.

To be honest, I don’t think it’s an important issue who seduced first in this situation.

More than that I suddenly wanted to correct something else.

“Seduction....”

I raised one hand and swept Ash’s shoulder slightly down.

Then I took the other hand to the front of Ash’s shirt and put my index finger up and slipped it against his hard chest.

Slow and slow, touching buttons one by one.

Slowly.

“......it’s like this.”

Well, hang on.

It was nice to have spontaneously followed it because I remembered what I had seen in the past, but the problem is that after I did it, the awareness that I was too frustrated started to come in. What should I do?

And Ash didn’t give me time to think long.

He lifted me up right away and moved me on a soft sofa, not on the desk in the Oval Office.

“Lydia.”

I blinked, looking up at Ash, lying halfway down.

Somehow the turtleneck moved loudly.

“It’s not my fault today, even if the kiss gets longer.”

“......”

“Make it clear.”

Dear God,

‘The first step was good.’

Soon after, my thoughts were eaten by Ash with breathing.

I couldn’t get out of Ash’s office much later than I expected this day, but there was no complaint at all, as a matter of course.
