Chapter 16
Idina grabbed his arm tightly with her trembling hands and only then did she feel something.
The alpha in front of her was also desperately holding back.
“…….”
His arm was trembling slightly. It wasn’t just an illusion that she was feeling.
A strong scent began to flow out from his pheromone glands. A clear sense of excitement. It was a sign, and perhaps he too would soon be faced with rut.
Idina was terrified of this situation, but she couldn’t help but ask the man.
“Who are you?”
“…..Do you know that this question is not in line with the purpose of the masquerade?”
His speech had changed since a while ago.
Idina guessed that he probably spoke like this very naturally on a regular basis.
It suited him so well.
Even on the dance floor, this Alpha had an air of elegance that could not be hidden. His manners were extremely natural and his gestures were as smooth as water.
Everything told her that he was a high-ranking nobleman.
Idina continued her thoughts a little longer.
Even though her head was spinning, there were a few clear elements.
The seductive pheromones of an Alpha that she had never felt before.
And the token that was given to her.
Of course, the signs were different for each person from the royal attendants. When they were distributed, they clearly looked like they were distributed randomly.
However, the sign he had was a spear and a shield.
When the two were combined, they clearly symbolized a knight or war.
War.
‘KILIAN’.
Kilian Escass.
That was his name itself.
Idina thought it was impossible, but when she thought about it this far, she felt like all the puzzles were falling into place in her head.
Was that a smokescreen?
Idina thought about the last time she saw Killian.
Tall and deep blue eyes. Blonde hair as bright as the sun.
He certainly looked very similar to this man.
Idina’s head was already flowing with the assumption that this man was Killian Escass.
The Alpha in front of her tilted his face toward her again, whether or not he knew her true feelings.
“Lady.”
Idina muttered as she was urged to answer.
“If you don’t propose to me, my life will be ruined.”
“…That’s quite direct.”
Idina knew that there weren’t many ladies who spoke like this. However, she barely managed to suppress the heat boiling up as she retorted.
“I’m not at a point where I can hide something right now.”
“……”
Idina asked with a gambling mindset.
“Can you promise me something?”
If this man really was Killian Escass, he would never abandon her, even after he declared himself the emperor.
“What?”
“You’ll come find this token you gave me…….”
The more she spoke, the more certain Idina felt that the Alpha in front of her was ‘that’ Killian Escass.
If this night passed and morning came, she might have become more foolish than any other fool in the world.
But at this moment, without that kind of faith, this secret meeting could not have come to fruition.
And the man seemed to have realized that fact exactly. He answered briefly.
“I promise.”
There was no guarantee, but Idina thought that was enough. The man lowered his posture for her to wrap her arms around his neck. His strong arms tightly hugged Idina’s thin waist, and he skillfully put one hand under Idina’s dress.
Pulling her, Idina’s thin, smooth leg was draped around his waist. At that moment, she desperately clung to the Alpha. The Alpha did not refuse, but lifted her up and willingly took her to the bed inside the room.
The two bodies fell on the bed in front of the window where moonlight streamed in. Idina looked up at his ivory mask, the mask with an eagle on it, and pulled his neck.
Haa, haa.
Their deep breathing echoed in the room.
Now, it was impossible to tell whose breathing was rougher. The alpha in front of her eyes was also exhaling hot breath due to the influence of Idina’s pheromones.
Swish, swoosh.
The sound of the heavy hem of the dress being lifted filled the dark and quiet room. Idina’s thighs, hidden inside the dress, were exposed under the moonlight.
In the pitch-black darkness, only Idina’s legs and the area between them shone like something sacred.
The Alpha looked down at the sight and took a deep breath.
She was wearing a garter belt inside to pull on her white stockings.
His eyes became blurry under the mask. Flicking Idina’s garter belt with his finger, he said, “You were hiding such an obsc*ne appearance under your modest dress.”
Idina blushed.
“Any lady, these days…….”
White stockings are popular among ladies these days. However, it was not elastic, so she wore a garter belt inside the dress.
It was not meant to be lewd.
However, Alpha did not seem to hear her protest. Unbuckling the garter belt that was holding the end of the stockings, Idina felt the strength that was pulling her waist slowly relax.
In the meantime, his large hands grabbed Idina’s thighs. Her thighs, which had some flesh, were crushed nicely under his grip, and her legs were raised.
“Ah…..”
Idina’s legs spread in an awkward position. Her face quickly turned red as she imagined how her lower body would look under the hem of the voluminous dress.
The Alpha smiled at the sight. He was already releasing a huge amount of pheromones, but he pretended to be calm on the outside.
As if he was engraving desperate patience, as if he was waiting for greater pl*asure to come.
He asked.
“Will you give me everything?”
“…….”
