Risk Level 7: Dorothy's Gentle Morning
When I opened my eyes again, many things had changed.
"..."
First of all, my mind is clear. The head that had felt like it was melting from surging desire is now fine, and the heat that had been boiling up from my stomach is no longer there either.
"..I must have left the window open."
A cool breeze drifts in through the open window. Judging by how it isn't particularly chilly even though it's autumn, it must be around noon.
"Ah.."
When I lower my gaze slightly, Dorothy is straddling me, her head resting on my chest as she sleeps soundly. Why is a woman's body so soft and pliant.. Her breasts are small, but they're warm and cozy, which feels nice. The horns on her head.. are they gone? Her sleeping expression looks more peaceful than ever, yet the slightly swollen, reddish corners of her eyes and the tear stains immediately bring back the heated memories of last night. That means.. well, as expected.
On either side of me lie Nero and Scarlet, still wearing the same maid outfits they had shared yesterday. Once Dorothy and I fell into pleasure together, I no longer had anything holding me back, and from then on I surrendered completely to my own desires. Even Dorothy, who had endured better than the others, eventually hiccuped and passed out, so while I was looking for my next prey, Nero happened to wake up. From that point on, it was chaos again. Drawn to Nero, I began taking her again—she was still half-dazed, her eyes bleary, and half-unresisting—when Scarlet also came to her senses. Their jealous bickering was so noisy that I sent them both off together, and instead of fighting, they soon started fawning over me. What began as an accidental threesome continued as I kept sending the two of them over the edge, until Dorothy woke up and joined in, turning it into a foursome. With three women now competing for my single manhood, the result was unexpected—or perhaps inevitable. Dorothy, who clung to me far more persistently than Nero or Scarlet, who had quickly collapsed, seemed to have silently established the new order.
While kissing Nero and kneading Scarlet's breasts, I rocked my hips and thoroughly ravaged Dorothy's tight insides. The thought that crossed my mind was that even if it was extravagant, this situation was far too decadent and lewd. Surrounded by soft, lascivious flesh that smelled sweet and erotic.. it truly felt like a dreamlike night.
"Ah, Dorothy.. are you awake?"
"...Hic.."
When I called her name, Dorothy—who had woken up but was pretending to still be asleep—flinched. Her small head trembled before she slowly lifted it and opened her eyes. She still didn't know that I could hear her inner voice, did she? Her face, caught pretending to sleep, is bright red.
"Counselor.. um, well.."
"Hm..?"
"S-s-s-sorry.."
The reason she had been pretending to sleep was because she was torn between guilt toward me and the desire to stay nestled against me a little longer. It was such a cute reason that I didn't scold her. When I pulled her waist firmly into my arms, thinking she was about to apologize again, her voice fortunately cut off—though those teary eyes looking up at me were already repeating "I'm sorry" over and over.
"I.. uuu.. I must have lost my mind.. How could I do something like that to you, Counselor.."
She clearly remembers last night, when she had seemed like a completely different person. The way she had pinned me down and rocked her hips as she pleased, the brazen words she had hurled at me to provoke me.
"We're both the same in that regard. More importantly, was it really okay with me? Your first time being.. and with four people like that.."
"That's..! Well, it's fine.. really.."
"Hmm.."
Having her hymen carelessly torn by Scarlet, experiencing her first time as part of a foursome including her.. and most of the positions I had used with her last night, when she was experiencing a man for the first time, were.. well, from behind.
"..You're not angry, are you? Ah, no.. of course you must be angry.. Being pinned down by someone as plain and gloomy as me, having to listen to such shameless things.."
"What are you talking about. Being with you yesterday felt the best."
"..Ah, u.. u.. ah..?"
Her flustered reaction is quite amusing. It's hard to believe she's actually older than me. She has returned to her original innocent, timid self—so much so that the dangerously seductive expressions she showed yesterday feel like a lie. Those horns, too.. what were they? A split personality..? Or was it also a side effect?
"Does your waist hurt? I think I pushed you too hard yesterday.."
"I-I'm fine. My body is sturdier than it looks, so.. you can.. use it however you want.."
"..."
She's really back to normal, right..? Right?
"..Sorry I haven't been able to pay much attention to you lately. Using 'being busy' as an excuse doesn't really work when.. it was pretty noisy at night, wasn't it?"
"N-not at all.. Rather, ugh.. that.."
'I can't tell him I was watching every night and touching myself..'
"..."
Why on earth.. No, this is my fault for making those sounds. ..I should prepare some things she can do quietly by herself soon. Books, movies.. or even embroidery—she seems like the type who would sit quietly and do that well..
"Counselor..?"
"Hm, yeah.. it's nothing."
"I'm really sorry about yesterday. I know it's not much of a substitute, but.. from now on, you can use my body however you like."
"Use.. ah, no.."
Why does the conversation keep going like this..
"Even if my body is plain.. ugh, since you said you liked it, Counselor.."
Ah, my mouth is the problem.
"With this, I can at least make use of my few talents.. So please.. feel free to break me as much as you want.."
Even though her face, eyes, and voice are different from yesterday, the words she says are the same, so it doesn't mean anything. And those words are undoubtedly her true feelings.
"What are you saying.. We're doing this to feel good together. This kind of thing.."
I had said it to correct her, worried that her views on sex might become strangely twisted, but..
"I.. felt good, you know?"
"..."
Looking into those deep purple eyes that answered so purely, without a single lie, takes my breath away in a different way.
"..Ah.."
And the reason she just let out that cute little cry is, of course, because my manhood—reacting to her previous words—has risen healthily and begun poking between her thighs, tapping against the cleft of her buttocks.
"T-this is.. sorry."
"..Ah.. no."
Still, her reaction is much more embarrassed than yesterday. Yet she also seems somewhat refreshed and more relaxed than usual.. For now, I should just be grateful that she isn't showing that dangerous smile from yesterday.
"Are you two flirting by yourselves? When did you two get so close?"
"Ah, Scarlet."
When I turn my head at the sudden sharp voice from beside me, Scarlet is looking at me with a slightly displeased expression. After brushing her red hair that had fallen over her face while she slept, she naturally asks about last night.
"..What exactly happened?"
"Ugh.."
If I have to explain, I have no choice but to blame the side effects of the aphrodisiac the witch made. I had dragged her—who came to complain about the noise—straight into the bedroom and pounced on her without warning. Of course, that excuse wasn't versatile enough for both of us to accept.
"..That side effect.. does it have something to do with making me wear this maid outfit?"
"Probably.. right?"
She's got a point. I can't help but think it's quite something, in many ways, that even in that situation I had thought to put her in a maid outfit before taking her.
"..Ah, then since we're both awake, before Nero wakes up, let's go wash up first.."
"Kyaa?"
Huh? Kyaa..? Did Scarlet just let out a ridiculously cute scream that doesn't suit her at all..? Did I mishear?
"Ah, no.. this is.."
She's flustered.. I had only tried to place my hand on her shoulder. But the moment my fingertips barely touched her, she jerked her body back and shrank away, letting out that scream from earlier. Her face looks even more flustered at the fact that she got flustered.
"..Scarlet?"
"Ah.. it's nothing.. so, for now.. that hand.. put it down."
"..?"
I did as she asked for now, but her reaction is far too strange.
"For the time being, I won't act so cheeky.. sorry.."
"..??"
What's more, she's the one offering an apology without being asked.
"Anyway.. for now.. it's fine.."
'If I go through that again even for one more day.. I really won't be able to go back.'
And the reason becomes clear soon enough through her inner muttering.
"Huu.. my waist hurts.."
'Well.. if you ask whether I hated it or liked it.. it felt good, but.. anyway, it's fine for now. My stomach still feels full and sloshing with semen..'
While thinking that I should pretend not to notice, I feel the pillow beside my head shift slightly. When I turn my head the other way, I see Nero's back for the first time since we started sleeping in the same bed—she has turned away from me and is quietly pretending to be asleep.
"Nero.. no, never mind."
Even though she knows my ability well, she's acting like this, so she must have her own reasons. And yet, with Scarlet right beside her and Dorothy in my arms, she's still pretending to sleep. Hmm, they must all be really exhausted from yesterday. I'm feeling extremely refreshed and like I could go again right now.
"Uh.."
Wait, now that I think about it.. does this mean I won't have to worry about being squeezed dry by Nero or Scarlet for the time being? My condition is good right now, so I've essentially achieved the original goal of getting the aphrodisiac. As expected of the witch's aphrodisiac—it's said to be a consistently popular product among the old nobility..
..The performance is certainly reliable.
"U-um.."
"..?"
The side effects were completely different from what Arke had told me, but at least it wasn't an ostrich egg, so that's a relief. Just as I was thinking that, in the awkward atmosphere where Scarlet and Nero are avoiding my gaze, Dorothy speaks up. I nod to show that it's okay for her to speak, and she rolls her deep purple eyes as if holding back embarrassment before timidly parting her lips.
"I.. can do a little more.. it's fine."
"..Ah?"
"O-of course..! If that's what you want, Counselor.."
I flinch as I catch a glimpse of that familiar light of desire in her eyes from last night. While thinking that the hierarchy has been settled, I also feel.. ah, is this dangerous..?
