Chapter 1 - Part 1

 

 

When she looked up, she saw Oscar looking down at her with an angry expression.

 

The moment she met his eyes, as if struck by a flash of lightning, her head shuddered and she shivered.

 

[Love potion…]

Lelia felt her heart pounding terribly, but she knew what was causing it.

 

Even though she knew it was because of the drug, nothing changed. Cells all over her body reacted.

 

She couldn’t calm her raging heart.

 

“Oscar…”

Lelia surprised herself at the sound of her voice coming out of her mouth.

 

It was a soft and sweet voice; as if she was whispering her love, begging for something.

 

For a moment, she felt Oscar’s body stiffen.

 

Oscar glared at Griffith as if he wanted to kill him, then clasped Lelia’s waist with one of his arms.

 

He then quickly slipped out of the room through the broken window.

 

***

 

Lelia suddenly saw Oscar running as she hugged him, her eyes tight with her arms around his neck.

 

Her heart was pounding loudly.

 

Since they were hugging so tightly, it was obvious that the sound of her heartbeat would be transmitted to Oscar as they faced each other.

 

She tried to cling to him as Lelia felt dizzy.

 

It wasn’t that she was afraid she would roll to the floor. She liked Oscar’s strong and wide arms that supported her, and she wanted to get closer to him even without realizing it, so her body moved.

 

Besides, there was a refreshing and warm scent from Oscar, and she liked it like crazy.

 

After a while.

 

It was in his room that Oscar set Lelia down. To be precise, it was in his bedroom.

Oscar seated Lelia on his bed. She looked up at Oscar with her confused eyes.

 

“You.”

Oscar’s low voice pierced her ears.

 

Red eyes that looked angry as he breathed heavily.

 

Lelia watched his chest rise and fall as their eyes met.

 

Thump thump thump.

 

Her heart was beating like crazy.

 

[The medicinal effect… it’s driving me crazy.]

She was hoping that Alchemy would show up and help her with anything at all, but there was no news that it was rebooting.

 

Lelia was afraid of the huge feeling she felt right now. It came rushing in like a tidal wave, trying to swallow her over and over again.

 

Oscar placed a hand on her shoulder and entangled his gaze.

 

“I’ve been holding it in and waiting…”

“……”

 

“I’m the funny one, huh.”

Oscar’s eyes were like fire. Normally, it would be expected for her to get a little scared from the intimidating way he was acting, as if it’s a warning…

 

[Why is your face blushing!]

Lelia bowed her head deeply. She felt her face, neck, and ears burning.

 

Fortunately, the room was dark and it was hard to see her reddened face.

 

But instead of keeping her head bowed out of shame, she had the urge to raise her head again.

 

She didn’t exactly want to take her eyes off Oscar.

 

Not only that, as if to warn her, she wanted to kiss him on his lips and hug him.

 

Oscar, not noticing that Lelia was different from usual, nervously ran back and forth in front of her, flicking his hair nervously.

 

He looked like someone who was desperately trying to be patient.

 

It was a fact he had struggled with this even before he left the estate, and even more when he came to the capital.

 

Lelia couldn’t take her eyes off Oscar. Her hands trembled as she desired to be hugged by his wide chest again.

 

[… Griffith, what the hell were you trying to do to me?!]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked the system.

 

He pretends to be kind on the outside and smiles, but behind the scenes, he does things like this…!

 

She wanted to go to Griffith at this moment and pluck his hair, but a greater urge tormented her instead.

 

It was the urge to unbutton Oscar’s shirt, who was still gasping for breath in anger.

 

[No no… Wake up! Think behind the scenes!]

 

It was then.

 

Feeling Lelia’s hot gaze, Oscar turned his head and looked at her.

 

“……!!”

Lelia gasped and took in a breath.

 

When their eyes met, something pierced her body as a sensation and felt like something was going on. She only made eye contact with him, yet a shiver ran through her body.

 

“……”

It was only then that Oscar noticed that Lelia’s condition was unusually strange.

 

He wrinkled his eyebrows and came closer.

 

“Lelia.”

 

“… Yes.”

Having managed to answer him, Lelia tightly closed her eyes and turned her head away.

 

She thought that Oscar was too blinding that she needed to turn away. She would have been better off not seeing it.

 

But Oscar didn’t let that happen.

Lelia’s eyes widened in amazement as he gripped her chin firmly in an instant.

 

“Don’t look away from my eyes.”

 

“……”

Oscar, knowing nothing, just thought Lelia was avoiding him again.

 

He held back his emotions until his jaw muscles stood out. He was fed up with Lelia’s attitude of always trying to avoid him.

 

[With what I’m doing for you, don’t avoid me.]

Swallowing the desires raging inside him, Oscar looked at her as if he wanted to eat and swallow Lelia.

 

As Lelia’s hazy gaze fell on him, his heart, which had been like a storm, began to calm.

 

“How long do I have to wait? I think this is enough to be quiet enough.”

 

“……”

Lelia blinked her eyes as if she didn’t understand what he was saying.

 

Oscar’s hand on her chin was so hot that she loved it and she couldn’t think of anything.

 

Then, soon, Lelia thought to herself, ‘Oh!’ as she recalled her memories.

 

“… I said it clearly. Instead of Leo, I’ll have you.”

“……”

 

“You said it with your own mouth, you’ll be  mine… When you’re done with what you’re going to do, follow me and you’ll be by my side for the rest of your life.”

 

“Until all my work is done, if Sir Oscar remains quiet, then I will answer you.”

 

Oscar kept that promise to this day.

His actions and expressions, as if he seemed to be holding on to something all that time, made sense now.

 

So much had happened, she had forgotten that she had promised him an answer.

 

She felt sorry for Oscar.

 

It was as if she forgot the dog waiting for her at home alone, as she came to play outside…

 

It was such a strange feeling of guilt.

 

“Don’t forget that you decided to give yourself to me.”

 

“……”

 

“If I could endure this much… Are you supposed to pretend that you never made such a promise?”

 

“……”

 

“Answer me. Then, forever until you say it… I will wait patiently.”

 

It was nice to hear the low voice that pierced her ears.

 

It seemed like a warning with his scary expression, but it felt sweet, as if whispering of love.

 

Meanwhile, Oscar came closer and stared at Lelia, as if forcing her to answer. As he got a little closer, her lips seemed parched.

 

The inside of her mouth was dry.

 

“… Ah, I see, so…”

Lelia managed to nod her head.

 

She honestly couldn’t even remember what she was answering.

 

How strong is the medicinal effect? She can’t even think due to it.

 

She couldn’t stand the rush of urges. 

 

Lelia gathered all her strength and bit her lip. 

 

She held back what she wanted to say. 

 

No way, not those words… 

 

Yet she opened her mouth anyway.

 

“Okay, I got it, Oscar… I’m sorry…”

 

“……”

 

What does she mean, “Okay?” 

 

So innocent.

 

For a moment, Oscar was surprised by her unexpected response.

 

He understood that she wanted him to remove his hand from her chin.

 

Even though he didn’t put any strength into it, he realized after that for Lelia, he might be too heavy.

 

Because Lelia has always struggled with the things she wanted to do or give, whatever it was.

 

When Oscar remembered that fact, he suddenly felt darkness appear in front of him like he was plummeting from a cliff. It was a new feeling.

 

It was miserable that she had to feel such a sense of loss even though she had never had it before.

 

It was then.

 

He could see Lelia closing her eyes and biting her lips as well. Her eyes and lips trembled.

 

‘Why are you doing this?’

 

She looked at him, and she was a little unusual even from before.

 

The eyes that looked at him were strange… She made people mistaken for nothing. He can’t.

 

He couldn’t have Lelia look at him with those eyes.

 

‘No, she can’t be this docile…’

 

“Ahhh… Oscar…”

Eventually, Lelia couldn’t resist the urge and opened her eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes.

 

“……”

Oscar looked at the tears in her eyes with a blank expression.

 

‘Why…?’

 

“I’m sorry… You know, Oscar.”

 

“… What are you doing right now…”

 

“I… Can you kiss me just once?”

 

“……”

“Hey, just once… please… huh?”

 

Lelia, unable to overcome the drug’s effect, begged with tears in her eyes.

 

***

 

When she came to her senses, her vision was all bright.

 

Tweet.

 

The peaceful birdsong could be heard outside her window.

 

Lelia jumped to her feet.

 

[Ah… It’s morning.]

 

Ah… Ah?

 

Ah!!!

 

Lelia remembered what happened last night and shouted, “Aaaaah!!”.

 

Lelia, now feeling tormented as she rolled on her bed, bit her lip.

 

[Griffith, you b*stard. I won’t let you go.]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked her system. That wasn’t enough, so he created a strange mission, and even made her take a strange medicine called a love potion…

 

[I’m going crazy…]

Lelia’s eyes darkened.

 

[Oscar, how can I look at his face in the future?]

 

[Or just… should I run away?]

Last night, she couldn’t resist the urge, and she remembered how she pleaded to Oscar.

 

‘Because you know everything, I will listen to everything you say, so please just kiss me once… I want you to kiss me…’

She had pleaded as she nearly fell to her knees and cried.

 

She honestly had barely suppressed her urge to forcibly do it, and instead begged him.

 

Oscar was puzzled for a moment, but he asked her as if he had finally noticed something.

 

“Say it. What did Griffith do to you?”

 

How did she answer that?

 

“Oh, just kiss me… please do it! Just do it once!”

 

And then she continued crying and begging. What could be more terrifying than this?

 

Eventually, Oscar ended up saying, “Don’t regret it,” and he grabbed her face and kissed her.

 

“……”

 

She thought she could now understand why Alchemy was annoyed with her the last time she said, ‘Is that a kiss?’.

 

Compared to last night’s kiss, all of the kisses she had previously were absurd.

 

Wrapped up in all that, Oscar passionately and tenaciously coveted her lips. 

 

It was so hot and sweet that she couldn’t even think of anything.

 

And after that… her consciousness gradually faded, and then the kiss stopped.

 

Her kiss with Oscar was so enchanting that she fainted.

[I’m going crazy…]

Lelia’s eyes darkened.

 

[Oscar, how can I look at his face in the future?]

 

[Or just… should I run away?]

Last night, she couldn’t resist the urge, and she remembered how she pleaded to Oscar.

 

‘Because you know everything, I will listen to everything you say, so please just kiss me once… I want you to kiss me…’

She had pleaded as she nearly fell to her knees and cried.

 

She honestly had barely suppressed her urge to forcibly do it, and instead begged him.

 

Oscar was puzzled for a moment, but he asked her as if he had finally noticed something.

 

“Say it. What did Griffith do to you?”

 

How did she answer that?

 

“Oh, just kiss me… please do it! Just do it once!”

 

And then she continued crying and begging. What could be more terrifying than this?

 

Eventually, Oscar ended up saying, “Don’t regret it,” and he grabbed her face and kissed her.

 

“……”

 

She thought she could now understand why Alchemy was annoyed with her the last time she said, ‘Is that a kiss?’.

 

Compared to last night’s kiss, all of the kisses she had previously were absurd.

 

Wrapped up in all that, Oscar passionately and tenaciously coveted her lips. 

 

It was so hot and sweet that she couldn’t even think of anything.

 

And after that… her consciousness gradually faded, and then the kiss stopped.

 

Her kiss with Oscar was so enchanting that she fainted.

Chapter 2 - Part 1

 

 

When she looked up, she saw Oscar looking down at her with an angry expression.

 

The moment she met his eyes, as if struck by a flash of lightning, her head shuddered and she shivered.

 

[Love potion…]

Lelia felt her heart pounding terribly, but she knew what was causing it.

 

Even though she knew it was because of the drug, nothing changed. Cells all over her body reacted.

 

She couldn’t calm her raging heart.

 

“Oscar…”

Lelia surprised herself at the sound of her voice coming out of her mouth.

 

It was a soft and sweet voice; as if she was whispering her love, begging for something.

 

For a moment, she felt Oscar’s body stiffen.

 

Oscar glared at Griffith as if he wanted to kill him, then clasped Lelia’s waist with one of his arms.

 

He then quickly slipped out of the room through the broken window.

 

***

 

Lelia suddenly saw Oscar running as she hugged him, her eyes tight with her arms around his neck.

 

Her heart was pounding loudly.

 

Since they were hugging so tightly, it was obvious that the sound of her heartbeat would be transmitted to Oscar as they faced each other.

 

She tried to cling to him as Lelia felt dizzy.

 

It wasn’t that she was afraid she would roll to the floor. She liked Oscar’s strong and wide arms that supported her, and she wanted to get closer to him even without realizing it, so her body moved.

 

Besides, there was a refreshing and warm scent from Oscar, and she liked it like crazy.

 

After a while.

 

It was in his room that Oscar set Lelia down. To be precise, it was in his bedroom.

Oscar seated Lelia on his bed. She looked up at Oscar with her confused eyes.

 

“You.”

Oscar’s low voice pierced her ears.

 

Red eyes that looked angry as he breathed heavily.

 

Lelia watched his chest rise and fall as their eyes met.

 

Thump thump thump.

 

Her heart was beating like crazy.

 

[The medicinal effect… it’s driving me crazy.]

She was hoping that Alchemy would show up and help her with anything at all, but there was no news that it was rebooting.

 

Lelia was afraid of the huge feeling she felt right now. It came rushing in like a tidal wave, trying to swallow her over and over again.

 

Oscar placed a hand on her shoulder and entangled his gaze.

 

“I’ve been holding it in and waiting…”

“……”

 

“I’m the funny one, huh.”

Oscar’s eyes were like fire. Normally, it would be expected for her to get a little scared from the intimidating way he was acting, as if it’s a warning…

 

[Why is your face blushing!]

Lelia bowed her head deeply. She felt her face, neck, and ears burning.

 

Fortunately, the room was dark and it was hard to see her reddened face.

 

But instead of keeping her head bowed out of shame, she had the urge to raise her head again.

 

She didn’t exactly want to take her eyes off Oscar.

 

Not only that, as if to warn her, she wanted to kiss him on his lips and hug him.

 

Oscar, not noticing that Lelia was different from usual, nervously ran back and forth in front of her, flicking his hair nervously.

 

He looked like someone who was desperately trying to be patient.

 

It was a fact he had struggled with this even before he left the estate, and even more when he came to the capital.

 

Lelia couldn’t take her eyes off Oscar. Her hands trembled as she desired to be hugged by his wide chest again.

 

[… Griffith, what the hell were you trying to do to me?!]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked the system.

 

He pretends to be kind on the outside and smiles, but behind the scenes, he does things like this…!

 

She wanted to go to Griffith at this moment and pluck his hair, but a greater urge tormented her instead.

 

It was the urge to unbutton Oscar’s shirt, who was still gasping for breath in anger.

 

[No no… Wake up! Think behind the scenes!]

 

It was then.

 

Feeling Lelia’s hot gaze, Oscar turned his head and looked at her.

 

“……!!”

Lelia gasped and took in a breath.

 

When their eyes met, something pierced her body as a sensation and felt like something was going on. She only made eye contact with him, yet a shiver ran through her body.

 

“……”

It was only then that Oscar noticed that Lelia’s condition was unusually strange.

 

He wrinkled his eyebrows and came closer.

 

“Lelia.”

 

“… Yes.”

Having managed to answer him, Lelia tightly closed her eyes and turned her head away.

 

She thought that Oscar was too blinding that she needed to turn away. She would have been better off not seeing it.

 

But Oscar didn’t let that happen.

Lelia’s eyes widened in amazement as he gripped her chin firmly in an instant.

 

“Don’t look away from my eyes.”

 

“……”

Oscar, knowing nothing, just thought Lelia was avoiding him again.

 

He held back his emotions until his jaw muscles stood out. He was fed up with Lelia’s attitude of always trying to avoid him.

 

[With what I’m doing for you, don’t avoid me.]

Swallowing the desires raging inside him, Oscar looked at her as if he wanted to eat and swallow Lelia.

 

As Lelia’s hazy gaze fell on him, his heart, which had been like a storm, began to calm.

 

“How long do I have to wait? I think this is enough to be quiet enough.”

 

“……”

Lelia blinked her eyes as if she didn’t understand what he was saying.

 

Oscar’s hand on her chin was so hot that she loved it and she couldn’t think of anything.

 

Then, soon, Lelia thought to herself, ‘Oh!’ as she recalled her memories.

 

“… I said it clearly. Instead of Leo, I’ll have you.”

“……”

 

“You said it with your own mouth, you’ll be  mine… When you’re done with what you’re going to do, follow me and you’ll be by my side for the rest of your life.”

 

“Until all my work is done, if Sir Oscar remains quiet, then I will answer you.”

 

Oscar kept that promise to this day.

His actions and expressions, as if he seemed to be holding on to something all that time, made sense now.

 

So much had happened, she had forgotten that she had promised him an answer.

 

She felt sorry for Oscar.

 

It was as if she forgot the dog waiting for her at home alone, as she came to play outside…

 

It was such a strange feeling of guilt.

 

“Don’t forget that you decided to give yourself to me.”

 

“……”

 

“If I could endure this much… Are you supposed to pretend that you never made such a promise?”

 

“……”

 

“Answer me. Then, forever until you say it… I will wait patiently.”

 

It was nice to hear the low voice that pierced her ears.

 

It seemed like a warning with his scary expression, but it felt sweet, as if whispering of love.

 

Meanwhile, Oscar came closer and stared at Lelia, as if forcing her to answer. As he got a little closer, her lips seemed parched.

 

The inside of her mouth was dry.

 

“… Ah, I see, so…”

Lelia managed to nod her head.

 

She honestly couldn’t even remember what she was answering.

 

How strong is the medicinal effect? She can’t even think due to it.

 

She couldn’t stand the rush of urges. 

 

Lelia gathered all her strength and bit her lip. 

 

She held back what she wanted to say. 

 

No way, not those words… 

 

Yet she opened her mouth anyway.

 

“Okay, I got it, Oscar… I’m sorry…”

 

“……”

 

What does she mean, “Okay?” 

 

So innocent.

 

For a moment, Oscar was surprised by her unexpected response.

 

He understood that she wanted him to remove his hand from her chin.

 

Even though he didn’t put any strength into it, he realized after that for Lelia, he might be too heavy.

 

Because Lelia has always struggled with the things she wanted to do or give, whatever it was.

 

When Oscar remembered that fact, he suddenly felt darkness appear in front of him like he was plummeting from a cliff. It was a new feeling.

 

It was miserable that she had to feel such a sense of loss even though she had never had it before.

 

It was then.

 

He could see Lelia closing her eyes and biting her lips as well. Her eyes and lips trembled.

 

‘Why are you doing this?’

 

She looked at him, and she was a little unusual even from before.

 

The eyes that looked at him were strange… She made people mistaken for nothing. He can’t.

 

He couldn’t have Lelia look at him with those eyes.

 

‘No, she can’t be this docile…’

 

“Ahhh… Oscar…”

Eventually, Lelia couldn’t resist the urge and opened her eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes.

 

“……”

Oscar looked at the tears in her eyes with a blank expression.

 

‘Why…?’

 

“I’m sorry… You know, Oscar.”

 

“… What are you doing right now…”

 

“I… Can you kiss me just once?”

 

“……”

“Hey, just once… please… huh?”

 

Lelia, unable to overcome the drug’s effect, begged with tears in her eyes.

 

***

 

When she came to her senses, her vision was all bright.

 

Tweet.

 

The peaceful birdsong could be heard outside her window.

 

Lelia jumped to her feet.

 

[Ah… It’s morning.]

 

Ah… Ah?

 

Ah!!!

 

Lelia remembered what happened last night and shouted, “Aaaaah!!”.

 

Lelia, now feeling tormented as she rolled on her bed, bit her lip.

 

[Griffith, you b*stard. I won’t let you go.]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked her system. That wasn’t enough, so he created a strange mission, and even made her take a strange medicine called a love potion…

 

[I’m going crazy…]

She felt sorry for Oscar.

 

It was as if she forgot the dog waiting for her at home alone, as she came to play outside…

 

It was such a strange feeling of guilt.

 

“Don’t forget that you decided to give yourself to me.”

 

“……”

 

“If I could endure this much… Are you supposed to pretend that you never made such a promise?”

 

“……”

 

“Answer me. Then, forever until you say it… I will wait patiently.”

 

It was nice to hear the low voice that pierced her ears.

 

It seemed like a warning with his scary expression, but it felt sweet, as if whispering of love.

 

Meanwhile, Oscar came closer and stared at Lelia, as if forcing her to answer. As he got a little closer, her lips seemed parched.

 

The inside of her mouth was dry.

 

“… Ah, I see, so…”

Lelia managed to nod her head.

 

She honestly couldn’t even remember what she was answering.

 

How strong is the medicinal effect? She can’t even think due to it.

 

She couldn’t stand the rush of urges. 

 

Lelia gathered all her strength and bit her lip. 

 

She held back what she wanted to say. 

 

No way, not those words… 

 

Yet she opened her mouth anyway.

 

“Okay, I got it, Oscar… I’m sorry…”

 

“……”

 

What does she mean, “Okay?” 

 

So innocent.

 

For a moment, Oscar was surprised by her unexpected response.

 

He understood that she wanted him to remove his hand from her chin.

 

Even though he didn’t put any strength into it, he realized after that for Lelia, he might be too heavy.

 

Because Lelia has always struggled with the things she wanted to do or give, whatever it was.

 

When Oscar remembered that fact, he suddenly felt darkness appear in front of him like he was plummeting from a cliff. It was a new feeling.

 

It was miserable that she had to feel such a sense of loss even though she had never had it before.

 

It was then.

 

He could see Lelia closing her eyes and biting her lips as well. Her eyes and lips trembled.

 

‘Why are you doing this?’

 

She looked at him, and she was a little unusual even from before.

 

The eyes that looked at him were strange… She made people mistaken for nothing. He can’t.

 

He couldn’t have Lelia look at him with those eyes.

 

‘No, she can’t be this docile…’

 

“Ahhh… Oscar…”

Eventually, Lelia couldn’t resist the urge and opened her eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes.

 

“……”

Oscar looked at the tears in her eyes with a blank expression.

 

‘Why…?’

 

“I’m sorry… You know, Oscar.”

 

“… What are you doing right now…”

 

“I… Can you kiss me just once?”

 

“……”

“Hey, just once… please… huh?”

 

Lelia, unable to overcome the drug’s effect, begged with tears in her eyes.

 

***

 

When she came to her senses, her vision was all bright.

 

Tweet.

 

The peaceful birdsong could be heard outside her window.

 

Lelia jumped to her feet.

 

[Ah… It’s morning.]

 

Ah… Ah?

 

Ah!!!

 

Lelia remembered what happened last night and shouted, “Aaaaah!!”.

 

Lelia, now feeling tormented as she rolled on her bed, bit her lip.

 

[Griffith, you b*stard. I won’t let you go.]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked her system. That wasn’t enough, so he created a strange mission, and even made her take a strange medicine called a love potion…

 

[I’m going crazy…]

Lelia’s eyes darkened.

 

[Oscar, how can I look at his face in the future?]

 

[Or just… should I run away?]

Last night, she couldn’t resist the urge, and she remembered how she pleaded to Oscar.

 

‘Because you know everything, I will listen to everything you say, so please just kiss me once… I want you to kiss me…’

She had pleaded as she nearly fell to her knees and cried.

 

She honestly had barely suppressed her urge to forcibly do it, and instead begged him.

 

Oscar was puzzled for a moment, but he asked her as if he had finally noticed something.

 

“Say it. What did Griffith do to you?”

 

How did she answer that?

 

“Oh, just kiss me… please do it! Just do it once!”

 

And then she continued crying and begging. What could be more terrifying than this?

 

Eventually, Oscar ended up saying, “Don’t regret it,” and he grabbed her face and kissed her.

 

“……”

 

She thought she could now understand why Alchemy was annoyed with her the last time she said, ‘Is that a kiss?’.

 

Compared to last night’s kiss, all of the kisses she had previously were absurd.

 

Wrapped up in all that, Oscar passionately and tenaciously coveted her lips. 

 

It was so hot and sweet that she couldn’t even think of anything.

 

And after that… her consciousness gradually faded, and then the kiss stopped.

 

Her kiss with Oscar was so enchanting that she fainted.

Chapter 4

 

 

When she looked up, she saw Oscar looking down at her with an angry expression.

 

The moment she met his eyes, as if struck by a flash of lightning, her head shuddered and she shivered.

 

[Love potion…]

Lelia felt her heart pounding terribly, but she knew what was causing it.

 

Even though she knew it was because of the drug, nothing changed. Cells all over her body reacted.

 

She couldn’t calm her raging heart.

 

“Oscar…”

Lelia surprised herself at the sound of her voice coming out of her mouth.

 

It was a soft and sweet voice; as if she was whispering her love, begging for something.

 

For a moment, she felt Oscar’s body stiffen.

 

Oscar glared at Griffith as if he wanted to kill him, then clasped Lelia’s waist with one of his arms.

 

He then quickly slipped out of the room through the broken window.

 

***

 

Lelia suddenly saw Oscar running as she hugged him, her eyes tight with her arms around his neck.

 

Her heart was pounding loudly.

 

Since they were hugging so tightly, it was obvious that the sound of her heartbeat would be transmitted to Oscar as they faced each other.

 

She tried to cling to him as Lelia felt dizzy.

 

It wasn’t that she was afraid she would roll to the floor. She liked Oscar’s strong and wide arms that supported her, and she wanted to get closer to him even without realizing it, so her body moved.

 

Besides, there was a refreshing and warm scent from Oscar, and she liked it like crazy.

 

After a while.

 

It was in his room that Oscar set Lelia down. To be precise, it was in his bedroom.

Oscar seated Lelia on his bed. She looked up at Oscar with her confused eyes.

 

“You.”

Oscar’s low voice pierced her ears.

 

Red eyes that looked angry as he breathed heavily.

 

Lelia watched his chest rise and fall as their eyes met.

 

Thump thump thump.

 

Her heart was beating like crazy.

 

[The medicinal effect… it’s driving me crazy.]

She was hoping that Alchemy would show up and help her with anything at all, but there was no news that it was rebooting.

 

Lelia was afraid of the huge feeling she felt right now. It came rushing in like a tidal wave, trying to swallow her over and over again.

 

Oscar placed a hand on her shoulder and entangled his gaze.

 

“I’ve been holding it in and waiting…”

“……”

 

“I’m the funny one, huh.”

Oscar’s eyes were like fire. Normally, it would be expected for her to get a little scared from the intimidating way he was acting, as if it’s a warning…

 

[Why is your face blushing!]

Lelia bowed her head deeply. She felt her face, neck, and ears burning.

 

Fortunately, the room was dark and it was hard to see her reddened face.

 

But instead of keeping her head bowed out of shame, she had the urge to raise her head again.

 

She didn’t exactly want to take her eyes off Oscar.

 

Not only that, as if to warn her, she wanted to kiss him on his lips and hug him.

 

Oscar, not noticing that Lelia was different from usual, nervously ran back and forth in front of her, flicking his hair nervously.

 

He looked like someone who was desperately trying to be patient.

 

It was a fact he had struggled with this even before he left the estate, and even more when he came to the capital.

 

Lelia couldn’t take her eyes off Oscar. Her hands trembled as she desired to be hugged by his wide chest again.

 

[… Griffith, what the hell were you trying to do to me?!]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked the system.

 

He pretends to be kind on the outside and smiles, but behind the scenes, he does things like this…!

 

She wanted to go to Griffith at this moment and pluck his hair, but a greater urge tormented her instead.

 

It was the urge to unbutton Oscar’s shirt, who was still gasping for breath in anger.

 

[No no… Wake up! Think behind the scenes!]

 

It was then.

 

Feeling Lelia’s hot gaze, Oscar turned his head and looked at her.

 

“……!!”

Lelia gasped and took in a breath.

 

When their eyes met, something pierced her body as a sensation and felt like something was going on. She only made eye contact with him, yet a shiver ran through her body.

 

“……”

It was only then that Oscar noticed that Lelia’s condition was unusually strange.

 

He wrinkled his eyebrows and came closer.

 

“Lelia.”

 

“… Yes.”

Having managed to answer him, Lelia tightly closed her eyes and turned her head away.

 

She thought that Oscar was too blinding that she needed to turn away. She would have been better off not seeing it.

 

But Oscar didn’t let that happen.

Lelia’s eyes widened in amazement as he gripped her chin firmly in an instant.

 

“Don’t look away from my eyes.”

 

“……”

Oscar, knowing nothing, just thought Lelia was avoiding him again.

 

He held back his emotions until his jaw muscles stood out. He was fed up with Lelia’s attitude of always trying to avoid him.

 

[With what I’m doing for you, don’t avoid me.]

Swallowing the desires raging inside him, Oscar looked at her as if he wanted to eat and swallow Lelia.

 

As Lelia’s hazy gaze fell on him, his heart, which had been like a storm, began to calm.

 

“How long do I have to wait? I think this is enough to be quiet enough.”

 

“……”

Lelia blinked her eyes as if she didn’t understand what he was saying.

 

Oscar’s hand on her chin was so hot that she loved it and she couldn’t think of anything.

 

Then, soon, Lelia thought to herself, ‘Oh!’ as she recalled her memories.

 

“… I said it clearly. Instead of Leo, I’ll have you.”

“……”

 

“You said it with your own mouth, you’ll be  mine… When you’re done with what you’re going to do, follow me and you’ll be by my side for the rest of your life.”

 

“Until all my work is done, if Sir Oscar remains quiet, then I will answer you.”

 

Oscar kept that promise to this day.

His actions and expressions, as if he seemed to be holding on to something all that time, made sense now.

 

So much had happened, she had forgotten that she had promised him an answer.

 

She felt sorry for Oscar.

 

It was as if she forgot the dog waiting for her at home alone, as she came to play outside…

Lelia bowed her head deeply. She felt her face, neck, and ears burning.

 

Fortunately, the room was dark and it was hard to see her reddened face.

 

But instead of keeping her head bowed out of shame, she had the urge to raise her head again.

 

She didn’t exactly want to take her eyes off Oscar.

 

Not only that, as if to warn her, she wanted to kiss him on his lips and hug him.

 

Oscar, not noticing that Lelia was different from usual, nervously ran back and forth in front of her, flicking his hair nervously.

 

He looked like someone who was desperately trying to be patient.

 

It was a fact he had struggled with this even before he left the estate, and even more when he came to the capital.

 

Lelia couldn’t take her eyes off Oscar. Her hands trembled as she desired to be hugged by his wide chest again.

 

[… Griffith, what the hell were you trying to do to me?!]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked the system.

 

He pretends to be kind on the outside and smiles, but behind the scenes, he does things like this…!

 

She wanted to go to Griffith at this moment and pluck his hair, but a greater urge tormented her instead.

 

It was the urge to unbutton Oscar’s shirt, who was still gasping for breath in anger.

 

[No no… Wake up! Think behind the scenes!]

 

It was then.

 

Feeling Lelia’s hot gaze, Oscar turned his head and looked at her.

 

“……!!”

Lelia gasped and took in a breath.

 

When their eyes met, something pierced her body as a sensation and felt like something was going on. She only made eye contact with him, yet a shiver ran through her body.

 

“……”

It was only then that Oscar noticed that Lelia’s condition was unusually strange.

 

He wrinkled his eyebrows and came closer.

 

“Lelia.”

 

“… Yes.”

Having managed to answer him, Lelia tightly closed her eyes and turned her head away.

 

She thought that Oscar was too blinding that she needed to turn away. She would have been better off not seeing it.

 

But Oscar didn’t let that happen.

Lelia’s eyes widened in amazement as he gripped her chin firmly in an instant.

 

“Don’t look away from my eyes.”

 

“……”

Oscar, knowing nothing, just thought Lelia was avoiding him again.

 

He held back his emotions until his jaw muscles stood out. He was fed up with Lelia’s attitude of always trying to avoid him.

 

[With what I’m doing for you, don’t avoid me.]

Swallowing the desires raging inside him, Oscar looked at her as if he wanted to eat and swallow Lelia.

 

As Lelia’s hazy gaze fell on him, his heart, which had been like a storm, began to calm.

 

“How long do I have to wait? I think this is enough to be quiet enough.”

 

“……”

Lelia blinked her eyes as if she didn’t understand what he was saying.

 

Oscar’s hand on her chin was so hot that she loved it and she couldn’t think of anything.

 

Then, soon, Lelia thought to herself, ‘Oh!’ as she recalled her memories.

 

“… I said it clearly. Instead of Leo, I’ll have you.”

“……”

 

“You said it with your own mouth, you’ll be  mine… When you’re done with what you’re going to do, follow me and you’ll be by my side for the rest of your life.”

 

“Until all my work is done, if Sir Oscar remains quiet, then I will answer you.”

 

Oscar kept that promise to this day.

His actions and expressions, as if he seemed to be holding on to something all that time, made sense now.

 

So much had happened, she had forgotten that she had promised him an answer.

 

She felt sorry for Oscar.

 

It was as if she forgot the dog waiting for her at home alone, as she came to play outside…

 

It was such a strange feeling of guilt.

 

“Don’t forget that you decided to give yourself to me.”

 

“……”

 

“If I could endure this much… Are you supposed to pretend that you never made such a promise?”

 

“……”

 

“Answer me. Then, forever until you say it… I will wait patiently.”

 

It was nice to hear the low voice that pierced her ears.

 

It seemed like a warning with his scary expression, but it felt sweet, as if whispering of love.

 

Meanwhile, Oscar came closer and stared at Lelia, as if forcing her to answer. As he got a little closer, her lips seemed parched.

 

The inside of her mouth was dry.

 

“… Ah, I see, so…”

Lelia managed to nod her head.

 

She honestly couldn’t even remember what she was answering.

 

How strong is the medicinal effect? She can’t even think due to it.

 

She couldn’t stand the rush of urges. 

 

Lelia gathered all her strength and bit her lip. 

 

She held back what she wanted to say. 

 

No way, not those words… 

 

Yet she opened her mouth anyway.

 

“Okay, I got it, Oscar… I’m sorry…”

 

“……”

 

What does she mean, “Okay?” 

 

So innocent.

 

For a moment, Oscar was surprised by her unexpected response.

 

He understood that she wanted him to remove his hand from her chin.

 

Even though he didn’t put any strength into it, he realized after that for Lelia, he might be too heavy.

 

Because Lelia has always struggled with the things she wanted to do or give, whatever it was.

 

When Oscar remembered that fact, he suddenly felt darkness appear in front of him like he was plummeting from a cliff. It was a new feeling.

 

It was miserable that she had to feel such a sense of loss even though she had never had it before.

 

It was then.

 

He could see Lelia closing her eyes and biting her lips as well. Her eyes and lips trembled.

 

‘Why are you doing this?’

 

She looked at him, and she was a little unusual even from before.

 

The eyes that looked at him were strange… She made people mistaken for nothing. He can’t.

 

He couldn’t have Lelia look at him with those eyes.

 

‘No, she can’t be this docile…’

 

“Ahhh… Oscar…”

Eventually, Lelia couldn’t resist the urge and opened her eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes.

 

“……”

Oscar looked at the tears in her eyes with a blank expression.

 

‘Why…?’

 

“I’m sorry… You know, Oscar.”

 

“… What are you doing right now…”

 

“I… Can you kiss me just once?”

 

“……”

“Hey, just once… please… huh?”

 

Lelia, unable to overcome the drug’s effect, begged with tears in her eyes.

 

***

 

When she came to her senses, her vision was all bright.

 

Tweet.

 

The peaceful birdsong could be heard outside her window.

 

Lelia jumped to her feet.

 

[Ah… It’s morning.]

 

Ah… Ah?

 

Ah!!!

 

Lelia remembered what happened last night and shouted, “Aaaaah!!”.

 

Lelia, now feeling tormented as she rolled on her bed, bit her lip.

 

[Griffith, you b*stard. I won’t let you go.]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked her system. That wasn’t enough, so he created a strange mission, and even made her take a strange medicine called a love potion…

 

[I’m going crazy…]

Lelia’s eyes darkened.

 

[Oscar, how can I look at his face in the future?]

 

[Or just… should I run away?]

Last night, she couldn’t resist the urge, and she remembered how she pleaded to Oscar.

 

‘Because you know everything, I will listen to everything you say, so please just kiss me once… I want you to kiss me…’

She had pleaded as she nearly fell to her knees and cried.

 

She honestly had barely suppressed her urge to forcibly do it, and instead begged him.

 

Oscar was puzzled for a moment, but he asked her as if he had finally noticed something.

 

“Say it. What did Griffith do to you?”

 

How did she answer that?

 

“Oh, just kiss me… please do it! Just do it once!”

 

And then she continued crying and begging. What could be more terrifying than this?

 

Eventually, Oscar ended up saying, “Don’t regret it,” and he grabbed her face and kissed her.

 

“……”

 

She thought she could now understand why Alchemy was annoyed with her the last time she said, ‘Is that a kiss?’.

 

Compared to last night’s kiss, all of the kisses she had previously were absurd.

 

Wrapped up in all that, Oscar passionately and tenaciously coveted her lips. 

 

It was so hot and sweet that she couldn’t even think of anything.

 

And after that… her consciousness gradually faded, and then the kiss stopped.

 

Her kiss with Oscar was so enchanting that she fainted.

Chapter 7

 

 

When she looked up, she saw Oscar looking down at her with an angry expression.

 

The moment she met his eyes, as if struck by a flash of lightning, her head shuddered and she shivered.

 

[Love potion…]

Lelia felt her heart pounding terribly, but she knew what was causing it.

 

Even though she knew it was because of the drug, nothing changed. Cells all over her body reacted.

 

She couldn’t calm her raging heart.

 

“Oscar…”

Lelia surprised herself at the sound of her voice coming out of her mouth.

 

It was a soft and sweet voice; as if she was whispering her love, begging for something.

 

For a moment, she felt Oscar’s body stiffen.

 

Oscar glared at Griffith as if he wanted to kill him, then clasped Lelia’s waist with one of his arms.

 

He then quickly slipped out of the room through the broken window.

 

***

 

Lelia suddenly saw Oscar running as she hugged him, her eyes tight with her arms around his neck.

 

Her heart was pounding loudly.

 

Since they were hugging so tightly, it was obvious that the sound of her heartbeat would be transmitted to Oscar as they faced each other.

 

She tried to cling to him as Lelia felt dizzy.

 

It wasn’t that she was afraid she would roll to the floor. She liked Oscar’s strong and wide arms that supported her, and she wanted to get closer to him even without realizing it, so her body moved.

 

Besides, there was a refreshing and warm scent from Oscar, and she liked it like crazy.

 

After a while.

 

It was in his room that Oscar set Lelia down. To be precise, it was in his bedroom.

Oscar seated Lelia on his bed. She looked up at Oscar with her confused eyes.

 

“You.”

Oscar’s low voice pierced her ears.

 

Red eyes that looked angry as he breathed heavily.

 

Lelia watched his chest rise and fall as their eyes met.

 

Thump thump thump.

 

Her heart was beating like crazy.

 

[The medicinal effect… it’s driving me crazy.]

She was hoping that Alchemy would show up and help her with anything at all, but there was no news that it was rebooting.

 

Lelia was afraid of the huge feeling she felt right now. It came rushing in like a tidal wave, trying to swallow her over and over again.

 

Oscar placed a hand on her shoulder and entangled his gaze.

 

“I’ve been holding it in and waiting…”

“……”

 

“I’m the funny one, huh.”

Oscar’s eyes were like fire. Normally, it would be expected for her to get a little scared from the intimidating way he was acting, as if it’s a warning…

 

[Why is your face blushing!]

Lelia bowed her head deeply. She felt her face, neck, and ears burning.

She honestly had barely suppressed her urge to forcibly do it, and instead begged him.

 

Oscar was puzzled for a moment, but he asked her as if he had finally noticed something.

 

“Say it. What did Griffith do to you?”

 

How did she answer that?

 

“Oh, just kiss me… please do it! Just do it once!”

 

And then she continued crying and begging. What could be more terrifying than this?

 

Eventually, Oscar ended up saying, “Don’t regret it,” and he grabbed her face and kissed her.

 

“……”

 

She thought she could now understand why Alchemy was annoyed with her the last time she said, ‘Is that a kiss?’.

 

Compared to last night’s kiss, all of the kisses she had previously were absurd.

 

Wrapped up in all that, Oscar passionately and tenaciously coveted her lips. 

 

It was so hot and sweet that she couldn’t even think of anything.

 

And after that… her consciousness gradually faded, and then the kiss stopped.

 

Her kiss with Oscar was so enchanting that she fainted.

Chapter 9

 

 

When she looked up, she saw Oscar looking down at her with an angry expression.

 

The moment she met his eyes, as if struck by a flash of lightning, her head shuddered and she shivered.

 

[Love potion…]

Lelia felt her heart pounding terribly, but she knew what was causing it.

 

Even though she knew it was because of the drug, nothing changed. Cells all over her body reacted.

 

She couldn’t calm her raging heart.

 

“Oscar…”

Lelia surprised herself at the sound of her voice coming out of her mouth.

 

It was a soft and sweet voice; as if she was whispering her love, begging for something.

 

For a moment, she felt Oscar’s body stiffen.

 

Oscar glared at Griffith as if he wanted to kill him, then clasped Lelia’s waist with one of his arms.

 

He then quickly slipped out of the room through the broken window.

 

***

 

Lelia suddenly saw Oscar running as she hugged him, her eyes tight with her arms around his neck.

 

Her heart was pounding loudly.

 

Since they were hugging so tightly, it was obvious that the sound of her heartbeat would be transmitted to Oscar as they faced each other.

 

She tried to cling to him as Lelia felt dizzy.

 

It wasn’t that she was afraid she would roll to the floor. She liked Oscar’s strong and wide arms that supported her, and she wanted to get closer to him even without realizing it, so her body moved.

 

Besides, there was a refreshing and warm scent from Oscar, and she liked it like crazy.

 

After a while.

 

It was in his room that Oscar set Lelia down. To be precise, it was in his bedroom.

Oscar seated Lelia on his bed. She looked up at Oscar with her confused eyes.

 

“You.”

Oscar’s low voice pierced her ears.

 

Red eyes that looked angry as he breathed heavily.

 

Lelia watched his chest rise and fall as their eyes met.

 

Thump thump thump.

 

Her heart was beating like crazy.

 

[The medicinal effect… it’s driving me crazy.]

She was hoping that Alchemy would show up and help her with anything at all, but there was no news that it was rebooting.

 

Lelia was afraid of the huge feeling she felt right now. It came rushing in like a tidal wave, trying to swallow her over and over again.

 

Oscar placed a hand on her shoulder and entangled his gaze.

 

“I’ve been holding it in and waiting…”

“……”

 

“I’m the funny one, huh.”

Oscar’s eyes were like fire. Normally, it would be expected for her to get a little scared from the intimidating way he was acting, as if it’s a warning…

 

[Why is your face blushing!]

Lelia bowed her head deeply. She felt her face, neck, and ears burning.

 

Fortunately, the room was dark and it was hard to see her reddened face.

 

But instead of keeping her head bowed out of shame, she had the urge to raise her head again.

 

She didn’t exactly want to take her eyes off Oscar.

 

Not only that, as if to warn her, she wanted to kiss him on his lips and hug him.

 

Oscar, not noticing that Lelia was different from usual, nervously ran back and forth in front of her, flicking his hair nervously.

 

He looked like someone who was desperately trying to be patient.

 

It was a fact he had struggled with this even before he left the estate, and even more when he came to the capital.

 

Lelia couldn’t take her eyes off Oscar. Her hands trembled as she desired to be hugged by his wide chest again.

 

[… Griffith, what the hell were you trying to do to me?!]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked the system.

 

He pretends to be kind on the outside and smiles, but behind the scenes, he does things like this…!

 

She wanted to go to Griffith at this moment and pluck his hair, but a greater urge tormented her instead.

 

It was the urge to unbutton Oscar’s shirt, who was still gasping for breath in anger.

 

[No no… Wake up! Think behind the scenes!]

 

It was then.

 

Feeling Lelia’s hot gaze, Oscar turned his head and looked at her.

 

“……!!”

Lelia gasped and took in a breath.

 

When their eyes met, something pierced her body as a sensation and felt like something was going on. She only made eye contact with him, yet a shiver ran through her body.

 

“……”

It was only then that Oscar noticed that Lelia’s condition was unusually strange.

 

He wrinkled his eyebrows and came closer.

 

“Lelia.”

 

“… Yes.”

Having managed to answer him, Lelia tightly closed her eyes and turned her head away.

 

She thought that Oscar was too blinding that she needed to turn away. She would have been better off not seeing it.

 

But Oscar didn’t let that happen.

Lelia’s eyes widened in amazement as he gripped her chin firmly in an instant.

 

“Don’t look away from my eyes.”

 

“……”

Oscar, knowing nothing, just thought Lelia was avoiding him again.

 

He held back his emotions until his jaw muscles stood out. He was fed up with Lelia’s attitude of always trying to avoid him.

 

[With what I’m doing for you, don’t avoid me.]

Swallowing the desires raging inside him, Oscar looked at her as if he wanted to eat and swallow Lelia.

 

As Lelia’s hazy gaze fell on him, his heart, which had been like a storm, began to calm.

 

“How long do I have to wait? I think this is enough to be quiet enough.”

 

“……”

Lelia blinked her eyes as if she didn’t understand what he was saying.

 

Oscar’s hand on her chin was so hot that she loved it and she couldn’t think of anything.

 

Then, soon, Lelia thought to herself, ‘Oh!’ as she recalled her memories.

 

“… I said it clearly. Instead of Leo, I’ll have you.”

“……”

 

“You said it with your own mouth, you’ll be  mine… When you’re done with what you’re going to do, follow me and you’ll be by my side for the rest of your life.”

 

“Until all my work is done, if Sir Oscar remains quiet, then I will answer you.”

 

Oscar kept that promise to this day.

His actions and expressions, as if he seemed to be holding on to something all that time, made sense now.

 

So much had happened, she had forgotten that she had promised him an answer.

 

She felt sorry for Oscar.

 

It was as if she forgot the dog waiting for her at home alone, as she came to play outside…

 

It was such a strange feeling of guilt.

 

“Don’t forget that you decided to give yourself to me.”

 

“……”

 

“If I could endure this much… Are you supposed to pretend that you never made such a promise?”

 

“……”

 

“Answer me. Then, forever until you say it… I will wait patiently.”

 

It was nice to hear the low voice that pierced her ears.

 

It seemed like a warning with his scary expression, but it felt sweet, as if whispering of love.

 

Meanwhile, Oscar came closer and stared at Lelia, as if forcing her to answer. As he got a little closer, her lips seemed parched.

 

The inside of her mouth was dry.

 

“… Ah, I see, so…”

Lelia managed to nod her head.

 

She honestly couldn’t even remember what she was answering.

 

How strong is the medicinal effect? She can’t even think due to it.

 

She couldn’t stand the rush of urges. 

 

Lelia gathered all her strength and bit her lip. 

 

She held back what she wanted to say. 

 

No way, not those words… 

 

Yet she opened her mouth anyway.

 

“Okay, I got it, Oscar… I’m sorry…”

 

“……”

 

What does she mean, “Okay?” 

 

So innocent.

 

For a moment, Oscar was surprised by her unexpected response.

 

He understood that she wanted him to remove his hand from her chin.

 

Even though he didn’t put any strength into it, he realized after that for Lelia, he might be too heavy.

 

Because Lelia has always struggled with the things she wanted to do or give, whatever it was.

 

When Oscar remembered that fact, he suddenly felt darkness appear in front of him like he was plummeting from a cliff. It was a new feeling.

 

It was miserable that she had to feel such a sense of loss even though she had never had it before.

 

It was then.

 

He could see Lelia closing her eyes and biting her lips as well. Her eyes and lips trembled.

 

‘Why are you doing this?’

 

She looked at him, and she was a little unusual even from before.

 

The eyes that looked at him were strange… She made people mistaken for nothing. He can’t.

 

He couldn’t have Lelia look at him with those eyes.

 

‘No, she can’t be this docile…’

 

“Ahhh… Oscar…”

Eventually, Lelia couldn’t resist the urge and opened her eyes. Tears were welling up in her eyes.

 

“……”

Oscar looked at the tears in her eyes with a blank expression.

 

‘Why…?’

 

“I’m sorry… You know, Oscar.”

 

“… What are you doing right now…”

 

“I… Can you kiss me just once?”

 

“……”

“Hey, just once… please… huh?”

 

Lelia, unable to overcome the drug’s effect, begged with tears in her eyes.

 

***

 

When she came to her senses, her vision was all bright.

 

Tweet.

 

The peaceful birdsong could be heard outside her window.

 

Lelia jumped to her feet.

 

[Ah… It’s morning.]

 

Ah… Ah?

 

Ah!!!

 

Lelia remembered what happened last night and shouted, “Aaaaah!!”.

 

Lelia, now feeling tormented as she rolled on her bed, bit her lip.

 

[Griffith, you b*stard. I won’t let you go.]

It was clear that Griffith had hacked her system. That wasn’t enough, so he created a strange mission, and even made her take a strange medicine called a love potion…

 

[I’m going crazy…]

Lelia’s eyes darkened.

 

[Oscar, how can I look at his face in the future?]

 

[Or just… should I run away?]

Last night, she couldn’t resist the urge, and she remembered how she pleaded to Oscar.

 

‘Because you know everything, I will listen to everything you say, so please just kiss me once… I want you to kiss me…’

She had pleaded as she nearly fell to her knees and cried.

 

She honestly had barely suppressed her urge to forcibly do it, and instead begged him.
