Chapter 772 - 119 - Irene’s Confliction (6)
If doing it with her again meant feeling that kind of bliss once more, then hell yeah—it would be good. That was the only thought echoing in my head as the air in the room lingered with heat and scent from what we just did.
While I was pulling my clothes back on, still a bit dazed from the aftermath, I noticed her.
She was watching me.
Her gaze lingered for just a second too long with her eyes tracing me, unreadable for a moment.
"What? You still want more?" I asked with a smirk, tossing a glance her way.
She quickly looked away, cheeks slightly flushed, and let out a soft breath. "Well... I’m not really against the idea, but it’s already late at night, and I’ve got something to prepare for my lecture tomorrow... so I really don’t have the time at all."
But then something shifted in her expression—her eyes widened slightly, as if a sudden realization struck her right in the middle of that sentence.
"So I guess... if I’m the only woman in your life, I really wouldn’t be able to satisfy you, huh?" she said quietly, with a touch of resignation in her voice.
She must’ve known this deep down for a long time, but hearing it aloud—voicing it herself—seemed to make the truth hit harder. No matter how much stamina she had, no matter how much she wanted to be there for me, the reality was she just didn’t have the time to keep up with me. And my libido... it only kept growing and demanding more.
"Why don’t you just join my harem?" I asked her, casually but sincerely.
She paused, and then her eyes shifted, conflicted.
"Joining a harem... it’s something that feels a little off-putting to me, I guess," she murmured, her voice laced with hesitation. "I mean, sure... I do love being with you. I want to be one with you—completely—no walls, no masks, and just us. But... I don’t really like the idea of being in a polyamorous relationship. Because... if I do that, I’ll have to share you with others. And your love... it’ll be divided. I feel like... because I’m older than the rest, I’d be the first one you’d slowly push away once I lose my appeal." Her eyes dropped to the floor, her voice fading.
