Ignoring his terse question, Maxi continued icily, "As you know, my relationship with my father is fraught, and my husband harbors his own resentments against the duchy.

But if you shirk your responsibilities now… know that we will remember your actions for years to come."

On the first day of Midna's liberation, the coalition army worked through the night to transport the dead.

He felt her nipple grow taut beneath his palm. He rubbed his thumb against it to stimulate it further, then loosened the buckle of her armor with his teeth. Spreading his hand over her full breast, he began to knead gently.

"All necessary procedures have been fulfilled," Riftan retorted, cutting her off rather coldly. "Why do you think Ruth Serbel has been acting as errand boy for that fastidious elder? Do you think he was at Calto Serbel's beck and call simply because of their blood ties?"

How much more adversity would they have to endure before they could finally return to Anatol? She tried to soothe the frustration simmering in her chest as she descended the steps and crossed the snow-covered grounds.

An unexpected gain for going to the Tower 🤭
"I-I read it in a book," she stammered. "I found it… p-purely by coincidence… w-while I was at the Tower… a-and I scrupulously read the explanation… because I wanted to… t-try it with you."

She wound her arms around his strained neck. Riftan's self-control came crumbling down at her silent consent, and he began to rock his hips. She could tell he had held back for as long as he could. Half-buried in the mattress beneath his hulking, muscular body, Maxi was helpless as he moved atop her like a bucking stallion.

Hebaron gave a low whistle. "It appears our lady has come to declare war."
