A Kiss with the Serpent
"Oppa, I'm going to wash up first." Charlotte went into the bathroom, reading the pamphlet Yuda had given us. I thought it was just a matter of keeping it dry, but it was more complicated than I expected. I had received a copy too. 'Keep it moist, keep it clean!' It was a small booklet with illustrations of characters that looked like they were drawn by Yuda herself, along with various precautions. It was actually kind of cute.
[ Wash with antibacterial soap when showering. Keep applying Bepanthen! ]
Hmm.
[ Scabs may form and skin might peel, but do not peel them off by force. The entire process takes about two weeks to a month! Be careful with alcohol as it can cause the wounds to flare up! ]
[ If the skin hurts or problems arise, go to the hospital immediately! ]
An inexplicable sense of guilt washed over me. Had I done something terrible to Charlotte...? I thought it would be over once the tattoo was done. I need to treat her better.
The sound of water stopped, and Charlotte came out, drying her hair. She was wearing an oversized T-shirt and dolphin shorts... but why were her thighs like that? "Oh my god. Charlotte. Are you okay? Does it hurt?" The area around her pelvic ribbon and next to her garter belt tattoo was completely red. It was red enough that anyone would think she had gotten a tattoo on inflamed skin. I hurriedly flipped through Yuda's booklet.
[ After getting a tattoo, the skin will swell and turn red. This is a natural phenomenon after getting a tattoo! In a day or two, the skin will settle down and the tattoo will turn black. After that, once the skin peels, it will look toned down. Only after it has fully healed will the true color of the tattoo emerge! ]
Peeling skin is normal? Charlotte's skin was so fair that the red, swollen marks stood out even more. My heart felt heavy. "Charlotte, does it hurt?"
"Um... honestly, it stings a little, and it's itchy." Charlotte looked like she was about to cry. It seemed she hadn't expected this since it was her first tattoo. Ugh... the triangle in my heart was stabbing me relentlessly. "Sit down. I'll apply the ointment for you."
I took out the Bepanthen (antibacterial ointment), put some on my finger, and spread it thinly over the ribbon on her pelvis. The area around the skin was bright red, as if someone had branded the ribbon-shaped tattoo with an iron. It was pretty, but I felt so guilty that I couldn't even get an erection, let alone feel lust. "Does it hurt..."
Charlotte shook her head. Was she pretending it didn't hurt just for my sake? The garter belt tattoo on her thigh was even worse. The inside of the garter belt tattoo looked like it had been filled in with red ink. I carefully applied the ointment so as not to irritate the wounds. I had bought a small tube, and it was all gone after applying it to her thighs. I should have bought the 100g large-capacity one.
When I laid a towel under her thighs, Charlotte lay down and stared at me. The flame-like marks left on her white skin caught my eyes. I swallowed hard. "Charlotte, do you want to go wash up...?" It was a tattoo similar to the Instagram model Emily's, but it was much prettier and sexier than Emily's. Let's think about it after I wash up.
I thought I had washed up pretty quickly, but when I came out, Charlotte was asleep. Come to think of it, she had been tense on the workbench for five hours, so it was only natural she'd be tired. And she had finished four times in a row this morning... It was still early evening, but it was enough to make her fall asleep. "What should I do..."
My cock was already standing tall at the thought of being able to have sex with Charlotte, who now had the tattoo. But as I looked at Charlotte, who was breathing softly in her sleep with a pitiful expression, it slowly softened. The patchy red skin around the tattoos also created a sense of guilt. "Let's just... sleep... the tattoo isn't going anywhere..."
I placed a pillow right next to Charlotte and covered her with the blanket. As I lay under the same blanket, fatigue suddenly washed over me too. Sleep well, Charlotte...
"Wait a minute. Yuda-noona. What? I didn't hear you wrong, did I?"
"You didn't hear me wrong."
I had come over to Yuda-noona's officetel after the tattoo session, and she had dropped a bombshell. "So, you want to see... Charlotte and me having sex?"
Yuda-noona blushed deeply and nodded. No, is this even possible? Does this person have no sense of morality? "Noona... even if we're close... no, what does Charlotte say?"
"She said she'd show us if you and I kiss. She said she wanted to see you, Kangmin, kissing another woman?"
"Where did my human rights go!"
"Kangmin-ah, don't you want to kiss me? Am I not that attractive?"
My heart ached at Yuda-noona's dejected expression. But this... the hurdle was a bit high. "In the first place, Noona. You said you were afraid of men."
"You're okay... no. It's okay if it's you and Charlotte."
Is it a 'no' if it's just me? It was a request that made my head spin. So, here, on the mezzanine of this officetel. On this bed mattress where I'd hit my head on the ceiling if I stood up straight, she wanted to see Charlotte and me have sex?
"Charlotte... did you really agree to this?"
When I asked Charlotte, who was drinking beer on the first floor, she poked her index fingers together and looked up at the mezzanine. "Hmm... I'm actually a bit interested in 3P. Not a 3P with two men. One with two women."
Ah, I'm really going crazy! Fine. I got it. Being born a man, I should try a 3P once. I'm a blessed man. A blessed man whose girlfriend readily agrees to a 3P. Aigoo! But I felt shy as I was about to start. "I'm a bit nervous while sober."
"I thought you'd say that, so I brought some beer." Charlotte brought up some alcohol and snacks on a tray. The three of us sat down and drank a can of beer each to loosen up a bit. Of course, it didn't really help. I guess I have no choice but to push through.
Charlotte lay on the bed. And I climbed on top of her as if to embrace her. Smelling a scent different from my room's, I suddenly became aroused. Let's start with a kiss first. I kissed Charlotte's cheeks, peck by peck, and took off her T-shirt. Her shoulder and pelvic tattoos were revealed at the same time. Ah, beautiful. I pinched her black bra and teased her nipples gently, making the tips of her bra bulge. Good. It's going well. But when I glanced to the side, my arousal felt like it was instantly extinguished. Plaid long-sleeved pajamas, plaid long pajama pants. Even a lace cardigan? What should I say... it's so unsexy and doesn't fit the mood at all. We're going to take everything off soon!
I gave her some advice. "But Noona. If you're wearing all those clothes... we get a bit nervous too... can't you match us a bit?"
"Uh, oh, okay." Yuda-noona slowly unbuttoned her pajamas with trembling fingers. Perhaps because she was nervous, she licked her lips with her tongue. A tongue split like a snake's, and a sparkling piercing. Seeing that, my cock became fiercely erect and poked the inside of Charlotte's thigh. "D-do I have to take off my pants too-?"
Yuda-noona asked, folding her pajama top and covering her chest with her arms. She was a bit smaller than Youngsun-noona, but still a full B-cup? Or maybe a small C. And pink babydoll underwear. Yuda-noona likes the flowy see-through style, huh.
"Yeah. Take off your pants too."
Yuda-noona put her hands on her waist and tried to pull down her pants. At that moment, Yuda's expression suddenly turned dark. "...Is this a dream?" She muttered, hanging her head low. "There's no way I have friends. There's no way someone I've only seen for the second time today would do something like this for me."
Yuda-ssi looked dejected, covering the rose tattoo on her shoulder. Then I snapped back to reality. Wait, is this a dream? Judging by Yuda-ssi's behavior, it seems to be the real Yuda-ssi. How did she realize it was a dream? Judging by her muttering, it seemed she had realized it through her deep-seated self-loathing. To say 'There's no way I have friends' even in a dream! Why is this person so pitiful!
When I looked at Charlotte, she was also flustered. But she quickly tried to appease Yuda-ssi. "Yuda-unni. Wait a second. It is a dream, yes."
Then Yuda was surprised. "Uh, uh? You can talk to me? Is this something like a lucid dream?"
"It's even more amazing than a lucid dream. Do you remember the talisman you received from me?"
"Ah, that? Yes! I had a really good dream."
Talisman? That's not a talisman, that's a contract, isn't it? But Charlotte continued the lie. "That's not a talisman, it's an artifact. Lucid dreams are just delusions, but this dream reflects reality. It reads the memories of real people and brings them into the dream. So, Charlotte and Kangmin-oppa are truly willing to be your friends if you ask, Yuda-noona. We're even willing to show you us having sex."
"Uh, uh? Is that for real?"
Yuda-ssi's face brightened up at Charlotte's words. I guess I have to go along with Charlotte's lie for now. "Th-then, really. Can I really become friends with you two? I had a dream like this before. Are you really going to tell me it's not my fault once we become friends in reality, not just in a dream?"
Charlotte and I nodded vigorously. Aigoo, why is this person so pitiful! Only then did she seem to realize that we were half-naked, and she blushed. "Th-then. Does that mean you two won't know even if I do anything here?"
Yuda clasped her hands together with an expression that her heart was pounding. Judging by her reddening face, she seemed to be thinking of something naughty. "Of course."
"R-really?"
While Yuda was thinking about something, I pulled Charlotte close and whispered. 'Wait, Charlotte. Why did you lie? Wouldn't it be fine to just reveal you're a demon and show her the contract?'
'I don't want to go around saying I'm a demon! I don't want to be chased by the Cathedral Knights, so I'm pretending it's an occult item! And trust me. If she finds out we're real people, she'll run away and never contact us again. Yuda-unni is delicate, you know.'
'I guess that's true.'
While we were whispering, Yuda-ssi seemed to have made up her mind. "Th-then, Charlotte. Can't you kiss me? And Kangmin too. With me. I think it'd be fine if it's a dream."
"M-me first?" Charlotte looked back and forth between me and Yuda, looking flustered. It seemed she wanted to do it with Charlotte first to relax since she was more comfortable with her. After thinking for a moment, Charlotte wore an unreadable smile. "You can't do it with me first. Do it with Kangmin-oppa first."
"Huh? Why, why? This is my dream!"
"It is Yuda-unni's dream, but it also reflects reality. This is your first kiss, right?"
Then Yuda hung her head low, looking embarrassed. "W-well, that's true, but..."
"The real Kangmin-oppa likes taking first kisses. And I always listen to whatever Kangmin-oppa says."
"R-really?"
Yuda clasped both hands in front of her chest and looked anxiously at me and Charlotte. "If you say so, Charlotte, I will..."
Then she slowly approached me. She had an expression as if she were wondering where her nose would go if she kissed. I tilted my head slightly, waiting for our lips to meet. And, a soft contact. She hadn't even opened her mouth properly because she was so nervous. Am I the only one opening my lips? I want to try kissing with a split tongue.
"Yuda-noona. This isn't a kiss, it's just a peck. Ah, try it."
Then Yuda-noona squeezed her eyes shut, trembling, and slowly opened her mouth. Her split tongue also seemed nervous, trembling inside her mouth. Now, shall I have my first kiss with Yuda-noona—
