I just hope that Arjan Clemence is just as wise.

At least someone would be able to recognize it right away while still manoeuvring behind the scenes. Raven nodded, embracing her even more.

If you say so then okay, Ill do it. But dont forget your own task at all times.

If its your way of talking then Dont push myself too hard?

Yes.

Molitia smiled softly at his warm words.

I got it.

Then, My Lady. Can you please put off from getting dressed for now? No matter how warm this room is, its still not enough to calm these desires of mine.

What?

There was nothing like this to break the current mood. Molitia looked at him with that such a relaxed look.

Why? You admitted it yourself. Your husbands physical strength is just enormous.

Why would it emerge now?

Why? Its the same situation even now, Molitia.

Raven kissed her lightly on the cheek. His hand then proceeded to touch that cold body.

!

Molitia turned her head, embarrassed by the pleasure she felt on her bottom. The subtle simulation was enough to heat up her cheeks.

You, really

Molitia glared at him before softening her eyes. Dont you think that itll be okay to indulge just for today? Her mumbling mouth had parted ever so slightly.

not here.

Do you mean that we should go to the bedroom instead of being here?

Nodded. Her eyes were blinking cutely.

But I have to be back in shape by tomorrow, so you have to try to control yourself as much as you can at night Raven, waitkyaa!

Raven, who could no longer stand his lust, immediately leapt to his feet. Startled, Molitia instinctively hugged his neck. Raven then quickly wrapped her in clothes before heading straight to the bedroom.

Molitia clenched her petite fist before hitting him on the back. But, he just quickly turned towards the bedroom as he closed the door.

Return

Shortly afterwards, Molitia began to fix her stare at the letter that was in her hand. The invitation, which had been stamped with the seal of Count Clemence, had ultimately indicated the meaning of an acceptance.

Finally, its today.

She had already expected it. Arjan, who was forced to leave the duchy as if she was just being kicked out by Molitia, couldnt have stayed still at all.

Even so, the proposal that was delivered by her father had never been brought up by Raven himself.

She would just be gritting her teeth desperately. Arjan had this morbid personality where she would want to pay it back once she was defeated by others. That was the reason Molitia had brought up such a plan of action to Raven.

I have to be more careful and prepare thoroughly.

Molitia slowly placed the letter in the drawer that was right at the corner. Pillen and Lili, who were dressing her up, had become much busier now.

Shouldnt we go out in advance?

Molitia gave a hearty laugh at Lilis concerned words.

Theres absolutely no reason for the host to arrive early, is there?

But usually, its like that.

An average tea party would consider it to be a virtue. So, she couldnt believe that Molitia was adamant to arrive behind time. Lili just couldnt conceal her anxiety right at that moment.

As soon as they arrive, they should have some time to at least clear their astir minds. Plus, there are many things that could only be voiced out when the organizer isnt present yet.

What are they?

Well

Molitia blurted out the end of her speech.

There was a beautifully decorated garden that could be seen from casting a gaze through the window. A magnificently constructed garden. However, this beauty couldnt sustain properly without the great efforts from the gardeners.

At the very least, wed be able to determine what to do next.

Only

Molitia finally murmured under her breath.

-

As time went by, the participants who had been invited to the party began to arriveone after another. On behalf of Molitia, who hadnt taken her seat just yet, the servants were serving them fiercely instead.

She deliberately placed some attendants at each table in order to quickly prepare what was needed for the said table, so that there wouldnt be any inconvenience at all.

People began to wonder, why didnt the host of the party arrive yetbut at the same time, they just couldnt stop their own curiosity.
