Since Lagaray had left, Rein hadn't craved meat for many days.
At this moment, smelling the mature scent of a woman emanating from Lady Crowley, the baroness, and catching sight of vast expanses of milky white skin at her neck, Rein felt a surge of heat rise from his lower abdomen, immediately making his mouth dry and tongue parched.
"Oh my!" The baroness suddenly let out a low exclamation as something seemed to poke her abdomen.
The next second, the beautiful matron released Rein, her eyes cast downward in a slightly shy manner.
She gently brushed away the strands of hair falling beside her ear, saying, "Lord Reine, I'm truly so embarrassed, I was just too overjoyed just now, please forgive my lapse in composure."
Rein also coughed, to mask his embarrassment.
If he had known, he would have worn his plate armor before coming out... now, clad only in a waistcoat and unable to conceal anything...
It was then Rein took a proper look at Lady Crowley standing before him.
