Claudia (2)
Wait, hold on a second. First off, calling it "sharing love" is wrong. Strictly speaking, it wasn't love—it was just an act to relieve desire.
Dozens of excuses and justifications bubbled up to the back of my throat, but Claudia wouldn't give me a chance to speak.
"Th-that... the brutal length you took entirely inside her, and Lucia... letting out breaths full of joy and ecstasy... Every time the bed shook, her... her moans that she let out, ah, uh... It's all still so vivid... Her face looked so incredibly pleasured, right up to the moment she... came... I saw everything..."
I'd never seen Claudia speak so rapidly, pouring out words like that.
"I understand. Please, calm down a little."
Stay composed. There's no helping the fact that I've been caught, so I need to get the full picture first.
"To start with, how did you end up witnessing that scene?"
"Lucia always... comes early before class starts to prepare... But she wasn't showing up anywhere, not even in the prayer room, so I... went looking for her..."
It wasn't an issue with the class time Lucia had mentioned. Come to think of it, for someone as diligent as her, showing up right on the dot would have been more suspicious.
"I see."
Of course, my mind wasn't settled with that short reply. But what can I do? Claudia had been so upfront with me. If anything, I was grateful she hadn't told anyone else.
Before I tried explaining myself, I needed to wrap up this bizarre confessional first.
"The Goddess will forgive your sin, Claudia. This will stay a secret, so rest assured..."
"Ah... I still have... sins to... confess..."
Her voice came through the lattice from the other side. It wasn't over?
"Hmm, in that case, please continue."
"...While watching you and Lucia... share love, it suddenly hit me... What you said to me, telling me to... come to the infirmary..."
Right. I had definitely said that. To be honest, with a bit of impure intent. Ah, but it was the Goddess's will, of course.
"In your words... I thought, maybe I'd end up... like Lucia, subjected to that too..."
Hold on—this was getting dangerous.
"Th-that wasn't what I meant."
I wasn't sure if she even heard me. Claudia's confession showed no signs of stopping. And worse, it was veering into strange territory.
"Of course, Teacher Theo is a good person, but I... I twisted that kindness into filthy fantasies... Under the name of love... Subjected to something even worse than Lucia... And rejoicing in it..."
This felt... risky. Different from before.
"One moment. So... Claudia? You're saying you had fantasies based on what you spied yesterday?"
She answered my question immediately, as if she'd been waiting for it.
"Y-yes! I've committed an unforgivable sin... So I deserve... a proper punishment..."
Punishment. Hearing that word finally helped it all click. What Claudia wanted right now was exactly what Lucia and I had done—maybe even harsher. All under the guise of punishment.
"I'm ready to gladly... endure any punishment... Please..."
I could guess why she was stuttering worse than usual. It was uncontrollable excitement from anticipating her punishment from me.
How did this timid, considerate apprentice saintess turn into such a masochist? If I was the cause, then I'd take responsibility. That was the task the Goddess gave me, after all.
"Claudia."
"Y-yes...?"
"Come to this side."
A confessional is a sacred rite conducted with a barrier between. If we were in the same room, it wouldn't be a confessional anymore.
Even so, she obeyed. I heard her rise from her chair, then the creak as the door on the other side opened and closed. The sound repeated as the door to my room opened.
"..."
Claudia, who had closed the door behind her, stood fidgeting with her fingers, silently awaiting my words. Just as she'd said, she was prepared for any punishment.
Honestly, I'd never punished anyone or even thought about it... But what could I do? She was brimming with expectation—I had to willingly satisfy her desires.
I took a step toward where she stood, carefully opening my mouth.
"You said you're ready to accept any punishment I give, right?"
"O-of course... If it's Teacher Theo's... love, no, punishment, I'll gladly..."
As I drew closer, she backed away little by little. But in this narrow room, how far could she go? Soon, her back hit the wall.
Looking up at me from inches away, she swallowed hard. Her expression was quite the sight.
"H-hee, eek..."
The sound alone suggested terror, but her face told a different story. No resistance—just eyes full of anticipation gazing up at me.
"First, tell me yourself, Claudia."
"Y-yes...? Wh-what..."
"Just like you confessed your sin, tell me what fantasies you had."
Was that too cruel for our shy apprentice saintess? For a moment, I worried if I should change the question, but there was no need.
After hesitating for a long while, she finally confessed her fantasies honestly.
"F-first... My... my breasts, in Teacher's h-hands..."
Breasts, huh. Noted, Claudia. Thanks for the honest answer.
"Like this?"
I raised one hand and cupped her heavy breast from below, lifting it slightly. A soft, substantial weight pressed into my palm. Thrilling.
"Ha, uh... Y-yes, that's... r-right..."
Even covered by her perfectly fitted habit, the sensation was vivid. ...Or was it?
Something felt off. Suspicious, I brought both hands up, palms open, and grasped them fully.
My fingers sank into the soft, pliant mound of flesh.
"Huu, ha, ah...♡"
Leaning against the wall, Claudia let out a deep breath. Her sultry, trembling exhale brushed my arm and scattered.
Ah... this texture is perfection. The kind you want to fondle forever.
...Snap out of it. Don't get lost in her breasts.
"Claudia. By any chance... are you not wearing a bra?"
My suspicion turned to certainty. Squeezing firmly, I could tell there was nothing underneath.
She didn't dodge my question. Just as she'd said she was ready for any punishment, she answered obediently.
"Y-yes... B-before coming to see you, Teacher... I deliberately..."
With a languid, enraptured expression, gazing at me, cheeks deeply flushed, our apprentice saintess confessed she'd removed her bra on purpose before coming.
Her eyes shone with expectation that this answer would earn her harsher punishment.
"Why would you do that? Did you fantasize about me touching your breasts?"
Adjusting the pressure carefully with my fingers, savoring the chewy, yielding flesh, I asked again.
Claudia was starting to feel pleasure too—her breathing and shoulders trembled. And she confessed her fantasies honestly.
"Y-yes... My breasts, hee, heeu— Teacher Theo's big h-hands, kneading them, hig, eep...!"
Unable to finish, she bowed her head and gasped.
As I wondered why, my fingers brushed something firm. Even an idiot would know what it was.
"Just a light touch, and it's already showing through your clothes, Claudia."
I pulled my hands from her breasts, and there it was, plain as day. Something thick and swollen under her habit.
I traced it lightly over the fabric with a fingertip, and her hips shuddered violently.
"Heeu, hi, ple— ha, haa, haah...♡"
Yet she didn't tell me to stop. If anything, she subtly thrust her chest forward.
"Is this part sensitive? Do you fantasize about this often?"
"N-no, not usually... N-not really..."
She was obvious when lying.
"Lying like that... You deserve punishment for it."
I pinched the plump, swollen nipple between thumb and forefinger over her clothes. Then yanked it outward firmly.
"Hooo, o-oh♡ O-oh...♡"
Forgetting all shame, she wailed pathetically and climaxed. Eyes crossed like a dimwit, wearing the most lewd, pathetic bitch-face imaginable.
"Tell me again. Do you fantasize about this often?"
"Y-yes, yes, yess...! Fantasizing about punishment from Teacher, this kind of punishment, hee, heek—!"
For finally telling the truth, I crushed her nipple between my fingers.
"Good girl. Here's a reward."
She seemed to love the reward from me.
"Hee♡ Hi, ple—♡ Ogh, gh, gruuut♡"
Gasping sweetly, twisting her hips wildly, she shuddered and curled up.
"Claudia, when you cum, say it honestly. Just like confessing your sins."
"Y-yes, yes, yess...♡ I... I came... From Teacher's hand... Your punishment..."
"Well done."
I hadn't planned to drag it out, but Claudia clearly wanted more punishment and rewards.
Coming without panties? How much had she been anticipating this?
Maybe Claudia was a more serious masochist than I'd thought.
"Shall we continue? About the sins you committed and the fitting punishments."
Even as she panted raggedly, she nodded slowly. With a faint, almost imperceptible smile, she said to me,
"Y-yes... My punishment is so very heavy, after all...♡"
