When Your Secret Crush Wizard Took a Love Potion - Chapter 26
After returning to the room, I flung Edgar to the floor, where he collapsed like a pitiful figure. Seeing a man stronger than myself being manipulated by my actions did not improve my mood.
instead, it fueled my anger.
“Have you lost your mind?”
I know he already lacked common sense, but this was beyond reasoning. If it were just me, I might handle it, but involving others could be difficult. Erasing memories of an entire public with magic wasn’t feasible.
“This could really lead to disaster!”
If things escalated beyond control, Edgar with his memories back, might blame me for not stopping him.
I couldn’t think I could bear a glimpse of disdain in those beautifully pink-streaked amethyst eyes. Honestly, that was the ending I feared most.
“Such a pervert. You’re doing everything!”
“I don’t mind being scolded by you, Chloe.”
“Don’t like that!”
Edgar responded stubbornly. Despite my protests, his cheeks flushed red as he continued to rub his still hot pillar against my foot.
My annoyance reached its peak, and in a moment of disgust, I stepped down hard on him. Which led to a lewd moan and a climax that left my foot drenched.
Seeing the sticky white fluid splatter up to my calf, I was at a loss for words and my mouth gaped. While Edgar, with his face flushed, looked up at me, pleading.
“Ugh, harder… please?”
He gasped as he nibbled on my thigh, infuriating me further.
If it had come to this, I should have just brought him straight to the room from the beginning and let him deal with it himself. Getting anxious of someone else witnessing the act while helping him made me feel foolish.
As he lay there in the climax, his purple eyes melted in blissful surrender, focusing only on me. If it weren’t for our teacher-student relationship, I might have kicked him even harder.
Then, Edgar spoke softly.
“Chloe, I like you.”
As I paused for a moment, he started with a kiss to the top of my foot, then slowly crawled up. The hem of my lifted skirt had long stopped serving its purpose.
The smooth, moist lips that made the hairs on my body stood on end. The tongue with a greed that seemed too intense for a human had crept along my calf, then lightly bit the flesh on my inner thigh.
He finally reached the triangular area covered by the thin fabric.
“Aha.”
He chuckled greedily, swallowing his saliva heavily as his eyes narrowed with amusement.
“You’re wet, Chloe. It’s dripping, ready for me to put it in whenever I want. I’m truly happy.”
His saliva-wet lips burned into my retinas more vividly than ever.
“You do like me, don’t you?”
His whisper brought a rush of shame. I couldn’t deny it. It has to be so.
Yes, I’ve liked Edgar Blayden, my supreme teacher and the only family I had. This has been the case for as long as I can remember. Long before I even recognized the existence of love.
And still do, even at this moment.
That’s why I didn’t stop Edgar, who was acting foolishly under the influence of the potion, letting myself be swept away like a reed in the wind. Even though I knew it was false, I was shaken and hesitant.
I thought I was stupid but having this pointed out to me directly as I couldn’t explain, made me miserable.
“Edgar.”
When I reached out slowly, Edgar pressed his cheek into my palm like a dog following its owner.
“Stop playing around now. We need to get up early tomorrow to head to the dock, so we should go to bed early tonight.”
My voice came out colder than intended as I pushed him away while pressing on my forehead. Edgar, sensing my sincerity, didn’t grumble but slowly backed off.
“Alright.”
After cleaning my legs with a towel soaked in clean water to remove the mess he had made, Edgar finished tidying up and joined me in bed. As he had done over the past few days, he snuggled up close, wrapping his arms tightly around my waist.
“Goodnight, Chloe.”
The kiss he dropped on my cheek was unexpectedly sweet.
Before the potion, Edgar never shared a bed with me, nor had he ever given me a goodnight kiss. But I am receiving it now as if it were the most natural thing.
It was such a seemingly minor change, but I felt like crying over it.
