The Nanny of House Herzen - Chapter 21
Her slender fingers quickly became slick. Evelyn winced slightly, opening her eyes just a little.
“Hurry…”
Her faint voice made the dark gleam in his eyes sparkle menacingly.
Did her plea to finish quickly sound like an invitation to him? The sparkle in his predatory gaze was troubling.
“Hurry up and f–k you?”
Evelyn was taken aback by his interpretation but had no time to respond. His long fingers withdrew abruptly, and then he thrust deep into her with a forceful push.
“Ah!”
Her insides, worn from the night’s exertions, were hypersensitive. The sudden contact made her vision flash. She turned her head away in discomfort, but he quickly pulled her face back towards his.
His lips met hers, and immediately, his thick member plunged inside her. The urgency of his movements seemed like he had forgotten all about the night’s activities.
His spicy scent enveloped her once again as their tongues intertwined breathlessly. The sound of wet flesh slapping resounded embarrassingly loud.
As soon as their lips parted, he thrust deeply.
“Ah…”
Overwhelmed by the heat, Evelyn wrapped her arms around his neck. The man, who had momentarily slowed his pace, locked eyes with her as he thrust again.
“Ah! Huh…”
The prickly brush of p–ic hair with each contact was an irritating friction. A ticklish sensation raced from her toes to the top of her head.
The embers he had stoked the night before hadn’t quite died out. The warm embers seemed to catch on dry twigs, flaring up unexpectedly.
Waves of climax swelled before her eyes. As she lifted her hips, wanting to cling on, he chuckled breathlessly.
“I should’ve just let you go, huh…”
His p–is dove into her deepest parts quickly.
“Ah! Ha…”
That was the spot. Evelyn couldn’t fully comprehend his words, only spreading her legs wider and rocking her hips.
Flames spread through her body where they touched. A tingling climax climbed her inner walls and up her spine. With her lips parted, she relished the joining below.
As her inner walls flinched in surprise and contracted, he covered her lips with his. After pausing briefly, he then began to thrust vigorously again. Her trembling inner walls cruelly split as the looming climax surged anew.
“Ah! Oh! Huh…”
It was only when his movements slowed that Evelyn managed to barely open her eyes.
The look in his eyes sent shivers down her spine. With the cruel gaze of a snake wrapping around its prey and the satisfied smile of a sated lion, he watched her.
Only then did she feel his throbbing release inside her.
As she closed her eyes again, a tear traced down the corner of her eye. His perfectly curved lips approached and playfully kissed her damp eyelids.
“I almost disappointed you…”
What was he saying? Evelyn couldn’t remember.
She just turned her head and pressed her lips against his. It didn’t matter who he was or what he was. She didn’t want to lose this warmth.
Their lips clung passionately, without calculation, saliva dripping between the mesh of flesh. Carius licked it off as if it were sweet.
Warmth in body temperature didn’t necessarily equate to warmth in heart. One mustn’t mistake physical tenderness on the bed for a sharing of hearts. She knew all this, yet…she didn’t want to leave his arms that morning.

“Do you feed her twice these days?”
Evelyn jumped at the voice coming from behind her, her shoulder shivering. The head maid chuckled.
“I mean the baby food. No need to jump as if you’ve committed a crime.”
The head maid’s face showed she knew nothing, but Evelyn couldn’t bring herself to look her in the eyes.
What had Carius said?
“That old woman knows everything yet at the same time, knows nothing.”
She was never instructed to serve the master with her body when the head maid employed her. She was only asked to care well for the baby, so the baby would earn the master’s favor.
Carius hadn’t glanced at Johanson the previous night when he visited.
It was only after hearing Johanson cry early in the morning that she had hastily left Carius’s room. He grabbed her wrist and emphasized.
“Come to me before I have to search for you.”
She couldn’t defy the master’s command, so now she was destined to approach him willingly. If only he treated her with less consideration, if only his advances were forceful, perhaps she wouldn’t feel so troubled.
But Carius was not that kind of man, at least not to her.

Evelyn visited his room about every three days.
As the frequency of her visits increased, so did her unease.
Evelyn felt so uncomfortable, that she eventually stopped going to the servant’s dining room altogether. Once, she was seemingly forgotten by all that no one provided her with a meal. But she stayed in her room without moving.
It seemed that the head maid really did know everything, just as he had said.
One day, the head maid brought up some fruit puree for Johanson.
“You won’t be able to step out much come winter, so why not take a walk in the garden? Both you and our little lady look pale as sickly. She’s still young, so make sure to put a bonnet on her to avoid direct wind.”
Whether the head maid knew to what extent or not, her demeanor hadn’t changed, which was a relief to Evelyn.
After hearing the same advice several times, Evelyn finally began to prepare for the walk.
