Chapter 110: Lise's Determination and My Feelings ③
Translated by AmaLynne
After Sam had fully recovered from the wounds he suffered in the battle with the Red Dragon thanks to Magnolia, he took a bath and was in bed when he finished his light stretching before going to bed and training his magic and skills.
In the bath, one of the baby dragons was comfortably occupying the bathtub, and when it found Sam, it squealed happily and urged him to come to the tub.
He had no reason to refuse, so we soaked in the tub together and even played with each other by pouring hot water on each other.
The little dragon was very friendly, despite the terrible things he had suffered at the hands of the humans.
They quickly became familiar with Alicia, with whom they could converse, as well as with Sam and the other members of the Walker family.
Even the servants, who were initially intimidated, are now very fond of the cute little dragons.
For Sam, the little dragons are very cute. They are like little brothers or sisters.
Since Sam only had a younger brother who was not so cute, the little dragons seemed even cuter to him.
I’ll play with them again tomorrow, he thought as he tried to get into bed.
Then there was a small knock at the door.
「Sam, are you awake?」
「Lise-sama? Yes, I’m awake.」
The person knocking was Lise, no surprise there.
She always visits his room without regard to the time of day.
「I’m sorry to bother you.」
「Yes. Let me make you some tea―――Lise, sama?」
Sam’s eyes widened in surprise as he tried to prepare tea for Lise.
Lise usually visits her room in a nightgown and cardigan, but today she was wearing a thin negligee for some reason.
The light in the room revealed her skin and panties, and Sam quickly looked away.
「I’m sorry, that was so sudden. Were you just about to go to bed?」
「No, no, I was just relaxing. By the way, what can I do for you?」
Sam asked nervously.
If Lise had been in her usual attire, she would not have asked such a question, and a pleasant conversation would have started.
But she was not in that mood.
(Is it my imagination that Lise has a different perfume scent than usual? I mean, why are you dressed so skimpily!)
Trying as much as possible not to look at Liese, Sam can’t help but be disturbed by the sweet aroma tickling his nostrils and her breath reaching his ears.
(―――Lise-sama’s mood is too different from usual!)
Lise is usually a cheerful, vivacious, and somewhat mischievous woman, but at heart, she is a gentle and sensitive woman like the sun. But now Lise is like the opposite, like the moon. She is somehow clad in sex appeal and even has an air of seduction about her.
Sam swallowed down the urge to shout,「What’s going on?」and tried to force himself to act as if he was unperturbed, but Lise gently sat down next to him and leaned her shoulder.
「―――.」
Sam could feel her body heat, and his nerves rose.
(I’m a man, too!)
Lise and Sam are like teachers and brother and sister, but it’s hard not to be aware of her as a woman, attractive as she is.
Sam swallows raw saliva and gently looks at her.
Her lean, well-trained, slender body was one word: beautiful.
He could see a hint of sweat on her healthy skin.
Every time she exhaled, Sam could smell her sweet fragrance, and couldn’t stop his heart from rising.
(Thinking back, I feel like this is the first time I’ve properly met Lise-sama since she confessed her feelings to me.)
Ever since her confession, all he’s been thinking about is Liese.
He couldn’t even do his training properly just by thinking about her.
It was the first time, except for Ur, that a woman had been so much on mind.
Lise was so quiet that her usual vivaciousness was a lie, and she just stood still next to me.
Sam was doubly nervous because he did not know what she was thinking in her silence.
As Sam searches for something to say, Liese gently lays her hand on top of Sam’s.
「Lise-sama.」
Reflexively, he looks at her face.
Their eyes met.
Lise’s eyes are moist and her cheeks are dyed vermilion.
Sam was reminded once again that she is a beautiful woman.
As Sam’s eyes are caught by Lise’s charms, her well-groomed lips with a thin lipstick gently open.
「Sam.」
「Yes?」
Lise told Sam, who could no longer hide her nervousness.
「I love you with all my heart.」
