Book 5: Chapter 38
I took in a deep breath and adjusted my emotions. My heart was beating rapidly. I recalled Nier’s smooth, beautiful, marble-like skin under the light.
Nier is usually clad in her military uniform but I know just how perfect her body hidden under it is. I know how beautiful Nier is, too.
But I never imagined that I would get to hold her body in the end.
Is this betrayal? Have I betrayed my Lucia? Lucia has kept her chastity for me, yet I’ve held other women in my arms twice now.
But can I refuse in this situation? Can I just watch Nier die suffering?
I love Nier, and I’ve witnessed how loyal she is to me. However, can I repay her love and loyalty to me?
To me, this is about saving Nier. But to Nier, it means that I’ve accepted her. If I then turn around and say that I’m going to marry Lucia and reject her, then I would be betraying Nier.
What do I do?
“Sometimes, there isn’t just one choice.”
