Dianthus gently submerged himself in the warm water, releasing a contented breath. He looked upwards towards the starry night sky as he stretched out his arms around the rim of the springs. The relaxing and quiet atmosphere caused Dianthus to feel a little melancholy.
Dianthus' eyes lost focus as he began to hum a slow and sad melody. "As the day turns to night, time surely moves on. I was waiting for no one, no one at all. The darkness approaches and blocks out all light. Leaving me lonely, not a single soul in sight."
He stretched out his hand, reaching towards the sky as his voice trailed off. He brought his hand back down and covered his eyes as if exhausted. "Did you want to join me?" he asked aloud, startling the woman who stood stone-still at the entrance to the bath.
"I'm sorry!" Hitomi exclaimed as her cheeks reddened. "I didn't know you were in here. I-I'll leave."
Dianthus sighed and stood up. He made his way towards the embarrassed girl and wrapped his arms around her before she could leave. "Why do you insist on running away? Where'd all the vigor you had while picking fights go?"
"T-This is different," she stuttered.
"Oho, how so?" Dianthus leaned his head forward and lightly pecked her cheek.
"Awawa..." Hitomi overheated and made strange noises in response to his question. She unconsciously raised her hands to her cheeks in an attempt to stop the dizziness from causing her to collapse.
Dianthus smiled wryly. "How are we ever going to move forward if you can't even handle a little skinship?"
He dragged her over to a nearby stool and forced her to sit down. Before she could settle her mind, Dianthus removed her towel and began to scrub her back. His warm hands slowly moved along her skin, almost leading her to another meltdown.
"W-what are you doing?" she asked, completely shocked.
"I'm helping you wash so you can enter the springs with me," he said matter of factly. "Now, close your eyes. I need to rinse the soap out of your hair."
Hitomi instinctively listened to him and closed her eyes. She felt warm water wash over her body as Dianthus slowly emptied the bucket. Once all the soap had washed away, Dianthus rubbed her head affectionately. "Now come get in the water; otherwise, I'll carry you there myself."
Hitomi stood to follow him towards the springs, but not before once again covering her body with her towel. She watched as he approached the edge of the spring and lowered himself into the water. Hitomi decided to submerge her body some distance away from him.
Dianthus sighed and waved his hand towards her. The water tugged her body towards Dianthus, allowing him to wrap an arm around her shoulder. "Why do you insist on sitting so far away?"
Hitomi didn't answer as she felt her face heat up. Even though she was embarrassed, to say she didn't enjoy being in his embrace would be incorrect. She pushed herself mentally and chose to focus on enjoying the current situation.
Dianthus smiled upon seeing her become more resolute rather than shying away in embarrassment. He also focused on the soft and warm sensation he felt from her body. To say that he wasn't tempted to devour her was far from the truth.
"What were you singing earlier?" Hitomi braved through her shyness and asked.
"Ah," Dianthus recollected what he felt a bit ago. "Just a small song I heard during my travels before."
Hitomi was concerned because of the impression she got from him while he sang. It felt as if he might disappear and leave them behind. "You seemed sad while you were singing it."
Dianthus nodded. "I suppose I was feeling a bit down. Being alone in such a quiet place reminded me of my time in solitude. I guess I was feeling worried that my recent happiness may all be an illusion that could shatter at any moment."
Unlike usual, Hitomi took the initiative and tightly hugged him. "You're not alone anymore. You have all of us. You'll never be able to get rid of us even if you wanted to."
A genuine smile broke out on his face. The smile was far more charming than usual. It stunned Hitomi and once again reminded her how handsome her new husband was.
Dianthus caressed Hitomi's cheek and brought his lips forward to meet hers. Surprisingly, Hitomi didn't shy away or get embarrassed. Instead, she leaned forward to meet him halfway, allowing her lips to touch upon his.
He began the kiss to show his love, but it became harder for either to hold back as it went on. Hitomi let her tongue push forward, breaking past Dianthus' lips. Dianthus, not the type to be passive, responded by intertwining their tongues as he lifted her and placed her upon his lap. Hitomi was subconsciously grinding her crotch on Dianthus as she relished in the flavor of the kiss.
Dianthus pulled away from the kiss, leaving them both flushed and breathing heavily. "I don't think I can hold back any longer." He reached forward, hugging her body against his. Before she could respond, a storm of petals enveloped the two. Once they flitted to the ground, Hitomi found herself lying on a bed with Dianthus looming above her. "You're so beautiful," he whispered into her ear.
Hitomi's heart was wildly beating as he kissed her neck. As Dianthus trailed slowly down her body, she realized that the towel covering her body was nowhere to be seen. All that remained was a small amount of water that began to soak into the sheets.
"W-wait," she weakly stammered while suppressing her moans. "I'm not rea— Ahn!"
Hitomi could no longer suppress her moans as his lips contacted her vagina. "S-stop," she whimpered. Contrary to her words and tone, her legs wrapped around his body. Her arms reached forward, and she pulled his head further towards her body.
As she felt his tongue run along the entrance to her pussy, shivers ran down her spine. "Ah— I feel so weird." Hitomi's breathing was becoming heavier as her body heated up. At that moment, Dianthus' tongue pushed inside her entrance, shocking her body.
"Something's coming!" Hitomi tightened her hold on his head, driving his tongue further inside. Her body shuddered as clear liquid streamed out. The fluids flowed into Dianthus' mouth as his tongue continued to play along her entrance.
Once the body-shaking orgasm had passed, Hitomi lightened her hold on Dianthus. He pulled away from her crotch and approached her lips with his own, kissing her deeply. "We're not done yet, you know," he said as he pulled away from the kiss.
"W-what?" Hitomi felt something rub against the entrance to her vagina. She looked down to see Dianthus rubbing his penis against her pussy, coating it in her fluids. "There's no way that'll fit," she gasped.
Dianthus smiled. "You can't come up with excuses to back out now. Especially not when you have me so riled up." He lightly pushed forward, causing the tip to spread open her entrance. Hitomi sucked in air as she felt her insides stretch.
"Haa—" she breathed out once he stopped moving. "That wasn't so bad."
Dianthus shook his head at her. "I'm only halfway in, though."
"No way!" Hitomi looked down and confirmed that he was telling the truth. "No way the rest will go in."
"It'll all fit. You just need a second for your body to adjust," Dianthus said.
He once again lightly pushed forward. Hitomi felt the familiar feeling of her insides being stretched and filled. Through her raspy breath, moans broke out into a melodic chorus.
Dianthus stopped moving once more. "Now I'm all the way inside."
Hitomi slowly released her grip from the sheets. "I don't think I can do anymore." Her chest raised and fell as she slowly caught her breath. The whole time Dianthus had been pushing inside of her, she was holding air in her lungs.
"I'm afraid it's too late to stop now," Dianthus said and began to pull back.
"Ah—" Hitomi began to moan again upon feeling his warmth shift inside of her. "T-time out." She gripped the sheets tighter than before. "Ahn—"
Dianthus pushed forward, driving his penis straight to her core again. He noticed her inner walls were finally settled, allowing him to move inside her more easily. He began to pull back and drive towards her cervix repeatedly.
He reached a hand towards one of her breasts and lightly pinched her nipple, causing her insides to tighten. Her moans got louder the more he moved. "See, doesn't it feel better now." He leaned forward and kissed her neck.
"Ah— I don't know," She squeaked out between moans. "Ah— My mind is going blank. Ahn—"
Dianthus shifted his body and reached his hands under her bottom. He lifted her slightly and drove into her harder and faster than before. Hitomi's love juices covered his hands and crotch. Each thrust caused her to overflow a little more.
"Ah— It feels too good. Ah— I can't. Ahn—" Hitomi's moans continued to ring out.
After several intense thrusts, Dianthus felt her insides constrict. Hitomi's grip on the sheets tightened as her knuckles turned white. Her eyes and mouth opened wide, yet no sounds came out of her mouth. Dianthus watched as her body convulsed in pleasure.
Hitomi's pussy clamped down on his cock, heightening the pleasure immensely. Feeling his climax coming up, Dianthus thrust harder and faster, hammering against her cervix. He bent forward and passionately kissed Hitomi, causing her mind to regain some form of clarity.
With one final push, Dianthus reached the back of her vagina. He began to deposit his semen directly into her womb. Hitomi's mind focused solely on Dianthus' tongue that wrestled with hers and the searing heat she felt in her pelvic region.
Dianthus pulled away from Hitomi. Once his penis left her vagina, small amounts of her love juice mixed with his semen leaked out of the entrance. All the while, Hitomi's mind was still struggling to come down from the clouds.
Dianthus lightly waved his hand, manipulating the mana to clean the aftermath of their lovemaking. Once satisfied, he settled his body beside Hitomi and embraced her. "I hope you're not mad that I didn't stop earlier when you asked." He rubbed her back and kissed her forehead.
Hitomi's face was red. "N-no, I'm not mad. I enjoyed it."
Dianthus smiled to himself. "Then I suppose we'll have to do it more often since you enjoyed it."
"I'd love to," Hitomi said a bit too overenthusiastically.
Dianthus chuckled. He willed the mana to pull the blankets over their bodies. Hitomi snuggled forward into his embrace and slowly closed her eyes.
"I love you," Hitomi whispered as she drifted off into the land of dreams.
Dianthus kissed her head again. "I love you too."
