Chapter 1183: Daughter’s Shock: Mother Kissing Son-in-Law
Tomiko let out a shaky, embarrassed sound—half sob, half whimper—and immediately buried her face into the blanket, hiding from me. Her shoulders curled inward as she tried to disappear into the fabric, but her hands still clung tightly to my sides, betraying how much she didn’t truly want to let go.
I chuckled warmly, the sound low and affectionate. Sliding one arm around her waist, I pulled her closer until she was practically in my lap, her face still hidden against my chest and the rumpled blanket.
"Hey... look at me, Oba-san," I murmured, gently tugging the blanket down just enough to reveal her flushed face. Strands of her hair had fallen messily across her forehead, and I brushed them aside with care.
She peeked up at me through her lashes, biting her lower lip, equal parts mortified and hopeful. "This... this feels like a dream," she whispered.
"I keep thinking I’ll wake up and you’ll be gone. Or that Haruna will find out and everything will fall apart. I’m scared, Jack. I’m so much older than you... and after what happened last night, I feel like I took advantage of you even if the tea—"
I silenced her with another soft kiss, this one shorter but no less meaningful. "You didn’t take advantage of anything," I said firmly against her lips.
"We both felt it. And now... I’m not letting fear steal this from us. You’re mine, Tomiko. All of you. The good, the uncertain, the parts you think are unworthy—everything."
Her body trembled softly in my arms as she finally surrendered to the moment, pressing her forehead against mine.
The last traces of hesitation lingered in her touch, but beneath them, a quiet, long-suppressed joy was beginning to bloom like the first light of dawn. Her fingers traced hesitant, delicate patterns across my chest, exploring me with a reverence that made my heart swell.
It was as if she still couldn’t quite believe she was truly allowed to touch me like this—so freely, so intimately.
Then, as if reality suddenly crashed back in, Tomiko shifted against me and froze.
Even with the blanket draped loosely over her body, she became acutely aware of her own nakedness beneath it. Heat flooded her face in a fresh, intense blush that reached all the way to her neck. She pulled back slightly, clutching the blanket tighter to her chest.
"Y-You... go out for a bit," she stammered, her voice small and embarrassed.
I tilted my head, pretending to look worried. "Oba-san... what happened? Did I do anything wrong?" My tone was laced with feigned concern, though I kept my expression gentle.
Tomiko’s blush deepened to a crimson that made her look even more adorable. She avoided my eyes, biting her lower lip. "I... I want to wear my clothes. Can you please go out for a moment?"
I acted shy, rubbing the back of my neck as if flustered. "Ah... right. Of course." I gave her a quick, boyish nod and hurried out of the room, closing the door softly behind me. Just as I stepped into the hallway, I heard a soft, genuine chuckle escape from Tomiko.
In my mind, I caught the faint echo of her thoughts [He looked so cute just now... But am I doing the right thing? It’s like I’m deceiving him... What if he knew I was the one who deliberately gave him that drugged tea? He’ll hate me. Not just for what happened, but for tricking him like that...]
A dark, satisfied smile tugged at my lips as I walked down the corridor. She had no idea how deeply the Lust Demon ability had already bound her to me. Her guilt, her secrets, her desires—they were all mine now.
I made my way toward Kasumi’s room, guided by the faint sound of muffled crying. The door was slightly ajar. I pushed it open quietly and stepped inside.
There she was, sitting on the edge of her bed, curled into herself with her face buried between her knees. Her shoulders shook with each sob, the sound raw and heartbreaking.
Without a word, I crossed the room and wrapped my arms around her tightly, pulling her trembling form against my chest. Kasumi stiffened for a brief second, then melted into the embrace, her face pressing into my shoulder as fresh tears soaked into my shirt.
"Jack..." Kasumi whispered between sobs, her voice cracked and filled with despair. "What am I going to do now?"
I held her even closer, one hand gently stroking her soft hair while the other rubbed slow, soothing circles on her back. "Shh... I’m here," I murmured tenderly against her ear, my breath warm on her skin. "Tell me what’s wrong, Kasumi. Whatever it is, we’ll face it together. I’m not going anywhere."
Kasumi clung to me tightly, her body still trembling. "Jack... what will we do now?" she sobbed. "I’m so confused... about Tomiko... about everything."
I gently lifted her chin, making her look at me. My gaze was steady and reassuring. "Kasumi... I will handle everything. You don’t have to worry anymore."
She stared at me through tear-filled eyes, her voice still shaky. "Jack... please take care of Tomiko for me. She is my everything. She has given up so much for me over the years... I can’t let her get hurt. She must really love you... Otherwise, she would never have given herself away like that, no matter what the situation was."
I smiled softly, gazing deeply into Kasumi’s eyes. "I promise... I will love and protect all of you for eternity. I’ll never let any of you suffer harm." I leaned in and kissed her passionately, sucking gently on her lower lip. She let out a soft, surprised whimper into the kiss.
The tender moment was shattered as the door burst open with a loud bang. Haruna and Yuko rushed inside and froze at the intimate sight—Kasumi’s deeply flushed face, her swollen lips, and the glistening strand of saliva still linking her mouth to mine.
Kasumi’s eyes widened in terror. "It’s not what you think...! This isn’t—please don’t misunderstand!" she cried out, voice trembling.
Haruna and Yuko stared for a second before launching into their dramatic act. Yuko marched forward. She first winked at me, and then she kicked my leg. "Jack! How dare you bully my mother like this?!"
Haruna dramatically climbed onto my lap, wrapping her hands around my neck. "I’ll kill you right now! Yuko, call the police! Have this pervert arrested! He’s a total monster for taking advantage of Oka-san!"
