"What's wrong with you?"
"...."
"Co on, Say sothing, You womanizer!!"
"...."
"How dare you seduce 'Hic' My Daughters?"
"...."
"Hey!! Why are you sitting on my lap?"
"..."
Eli shot an exasperated look at the woman comfortably seated on his lap. Her hands coiled around his neck, and her legs dangled casually.
His initial plan to suck the information about the 'Script'....totally fucked up.
Eli hadn't anticipated the woman's heightened vigilance even after drinking.
Despite his attempts to indirectly inquire about the Script, she repeated again and again like a broken record:
"Why did you seduce my daughters?"
"Why are they loving you but not ?"
"Even now, Mia wants to get stronger only for her brother, not for her mother!"
"Why am I being outcast by my own daughters?"
"Please give my daughters back to !!"
....
...
..
Her questions circled obsessively around her daughters.
Once she finished every wine bottle, her face flustered, she wobbled as she slowly dropped her guard....Well, that's what Eli actually wanted However,
Except for her flustered face and wobbly body, she still stayed alert.
She didn't answer any of Eli's questions. Instead, she poured out her frustrations and anger on his poor soul.
"HEY!!...Are you...-attempting to 'Hic' seduce too?" Mariel hazily glared at Eli, her dark ruby eyes hazily glared at Eli when she felt sothing hard hitting her butt.
Eli snapped out of his thoughts.
His lips twitched, 'Who seducing who?' he thought with annoyance.
He didn't know why but his body again started to react to a mild sensation just like before, He was about to push her away when he looked at her face, those Dark ruby eyes and Crimson hair...suddenly, Scarlett, his big sister flashed in his mind.
His gorgeous sister sitting on his lap, with srizing lips, subconsciously leaning in for a kiss, he abruptly backed upon noticing the mole under her right eye.
"Sigh" With a heavy sigh, Eli didn't want to be disrespectful to his stepmother, or rather, his mother-in-law.
He gently grasped her hips and remarked, "Well, if a stunning stepmother decides to grace her son's lap...I highly doubt he could control his surging hormones for a second".
"Huh?" Mariel blinked as if suddenly sober.
Just as she was about to move away, Eli effortlessly lifted her and placed her beside him before standing up.
"Stay put; I'll fetch so water" Eli said, playfully pinching her cheeks before heading toward the door.
Opening it slightly and peering out, Eli called over to the maid stationed on guard.
"Excuse "
"Yes, sir? Is the buzzer malfunctioning?"
"No, Miss, it's working. I ate a lot, and now I need so water, please" Eli explained with a warm smile.
Eli could have used the buzzer to summon assistance, but considering Mariel's less-than-graceful state, he opted for a more discreet approach. Besides, he wasn't in the mood to showcase his lower half to strangers, having already endured enough embarrassnt this morning.
"..." The maid stared at the peeking custor, 'Aren't you just drinking wines?' she wanted to ask but it's not her place to say anything, nodding her head before leaving to fetch the water.
While Eli decided to wait, thinking Maid might enter, Mariel, who suddenly sobered up, covered her blushing face, 'What the hell!!! What's wrong with !!' she scread inwardly.
She initially wanted to talk about the 'Script' but, After hearing from i and Wei that her daughter always talked about her brother and only felt grateful for Mariel.....She felt a little broken as a mother. Having Eli by her side, the source of everything, she initially wanted to pour out her anger and frustration on him.
However, no matter what she asked, Eli simply ignored her, treating her as if she were just a drunkard. Moreover, he kept probing about the 'Script' indirectly, even though he firmly refused to admit having it.
Thus, she got more annoyed and drank every bottle, soon losing her sanity and unconsciously lowering her guard.
Mariel's face turned even redder in sha when she realized how she had just acted, sitting on his lap and fawning over him.
"Arrhh"
'W-Wait a second!!' Then a light blinked inside her mind. With that thought, she took out a circular object and let it float in the sky as it turned invisible.
Mariel's plan was simple: if her daughters saw how Eli forced himself on her when she was drunk, they would surely separate from him. Mariel could then take care of their broken hearts later.
Her plan.... a little weird now but she was determined to do it.
While Mariel created this devious? Plan, Eli looked at Maid with a questioning gaze.
"Our Lord...I an, the owner of the Royal Restaurant gave this Erald Card to you as a special gift for visiting frequently" Maid answered as she bowed her head while sweating a lot, 'I wasn't rude before, am I?'
"..." Eli stared at the Black Erald card with his na printed on it.
"Are you sure?"
"Pardon, Sir?"
"Well, I am not the one who booked or even paid for any food I ate here" Eli stated, clearly rembering that only Adriana, Lilith, and his sisters paid, not him.
"I am sorry, Sir. But our Lord only inford to give only to you" The maid said sincerely, 'Damn it, man, just accept it... not many people get this chance!!' the maid shouted inwardly as frustration and annoyance etched on her face.
"...Okay then" Eli shrugged and accepted the card, then took the two water bottles.
'Thud'
Eli closed the door and walked towards Mariel, who still had a flustered face as if she was still in drunk mode.
"Hic, Hic" With a tipsy look, Mariel lasciviously looked at Eli.
"Here...Mrs--"
"Why are you still c-calling 'Mrs'?"
"Because that's who you are" Eli stated as he stood in front of her.
"Ah? But I am a w-widow now... So there is no need to 'Hic' call m-e like that, and...." Mariel said, trying to continue the act while everything was being recorded.
"Is that so? Then what should I call you, then?" Eli asked as he sat beside her.
Mariel slowly wrapped her hand around his neck and seductively said, "Mom!!"
Her whisper tickled his ear.
"..."
'What a pain!!' Eli thought really wanted to punch her but seeing her face resembling his big sister, Eli cald down and said sternly, "Mom...ah? Well, I don't think I can call you that".
Mariel was taken aback; however, being a duchess, she wouldn't back off after coming all the way.
"hmmm..." Mariel pouted as her hands slowly moved towards her neck, then chest, then stomach, then-
"What are you doing?" Eli asked, stopping her hand.
"Hmm...'Hic' I-I don't 'Hic' want my son to be in pain" Mariel said, her eyes lustily looking at his tent, which suddenly rose again, 'I-I am just a-acting, I am just acting; it is just acting....' She chanted inwardly.
"..." Eli stared at Mariel before saying sternly, "Drink this water first".
"....N-No 'Hic' I want to drink 'Y-Yours'" Mariel said with a red face that mingled with her drunk state.
"..." Eli squinted his eyes as he cupped her cheeks and asked, "You want to drink mine?"
"...Y-Yes," Mariel hesitantly nodded, thinking her 'true' wish ca true. The mont Eli forces her, Mariel imdiately plans to kick him out... maybe a little later.
'Gulp'
Eli gulped when he saw her expectant eyes and juicy lips. If anyone asked whether he was turned on or not by her, then the answer would be definitely yes;
The mole on her right eye really added to her seductiveness. If Eli was not normal, he might have already pounded her....sexy ass.
He wanted to plunge his ragging shaft into her cave. However, the mont he thought of Scarlett and Mia's sad faces, he controlled his emotions. But that cannot be said for his body, which was still reeling from the dungeon incident...even though he did more than necessary.
Eli shook off his unnecessary thoughts and opened the water bottle and
"HMMFFFFFF--Gulp, Gulp, Gulp...."
Mariel, with hateful eyes, glanced at Eli, who put the bottle mouth inside her mouth, letting her drink without even giving her ti to breathe.
Eli avoided looking at her teary eyes as he glanced down. 'I hope Adriana, Scylla, and Big Sis take care of this', he just hoped others would take care of this raging fire.
After emptying the bottle, Eli pulled it out.
"~Ha~"
"~Ha~"
Mariel panted heavily with hazy eyes, glaring at Eli.
"Are you sober now, Mrs. Mariel? I am sorry to do this....."
Mariel didn't hear Eli's words as her mind filled with one single question, 'Why?'.
'I-I did sothing I-I never did my life and Y-Yet....' Mariel glanced at Eli's apologetic face.
True she was a mother, but before that, she was a woman.....Her pride as a woman took a hit.
She wasn't a loose woman who would seduce other n; in her life, she never did that.
For the first ti, she tried to seduce a man who was considered her stepson, but it didn't matter to her....As a duchess, she knew more than what other common people would know.
How her own father married one of his daughters and how queens married their sons at the sa ti to avoid conflicts.
Yes, She acted like a loose woman to him, not because she wanted to catch him to be correct, it's just another way to justify herself.
What she wanted was to feel the warmth she felt when Eli held her hand. She wanted to feel sothing when her daughters looked at him...a lovely expression and a wish to protect sothing dear to their hearts.
It's not love yet, but she did like him when she first saw him coming out from the debris.
Those arrogant eyes, that haughty smile as if everything was under his palm, bathed with red flas that made her bloodline tremble in happiness as if she finally found her true pair...Let's say love at first sight.
For the first ti, she wanted to marry him with her own will, unlike before.
But fate had other things.....She found out he was her stepson, and what's more, her daughters loved him deeply.
On the first day of their fateful eting, her heart skipped a beat when she felt his gentleness,
"Asher Eli" Mariel lifted her head and,
"Hmm~ffffff" Eli's eyes widened when he felt soft lips on his lips.
