The Villainous Son Loves His Mother - Chapter 42

◆

Who am I…?
It seems I had lost consciousness.
The soft sensation beneath me told me I was on a bed.
The unfamiliar pattern on the ceiling suggested I was in the medical room of the tournament venue, or somewhere similar.
One of the walls appeared slightly distorted.
Perhaps some kind of magical protection had been applied.
As I slowly sat up, a dull pain shot through my abdomen.

(Right, I was defeated by Lord Hein, and then…)

The memory jolted me back to reality.
That’s right… I… I kissed Lord Hein…
The moment I recalled what I had done, a wave of heat surged through me, forcing me to lower my gaze.
I could feel my cheeks burning like clouds bathed in the setting sun.
A kiss… of all things, in front of such a massive crowd…
How utterly disrespectful, reckless, and foolish my actions had been. I wanted to flee this place immediately and vanish somewhere far away.
How much easier it would be if I could just fall into a hole that led straight to the bottom of the earth.

Lord Hein must have been utterly dumbfounded.
Perhaps even furious.
What on earth have I done?
No, I know exactly why I did that.
I wanted to melt…
The cold, stern ice that had settled in Lord Hein’s beautiful eyes.

In that sense, perhaps I succeeded, at least a little.
I clearly remember his expression at that moment.
His eyes held a complex mix of emotions—a hint of surprise, yet also something almost amused.
How did I appear in those eyes?
Just a foolish woman?
Or could I have shaken his heart, even if only slightly?
As I pondered these thoughts—

◇

“Is it safe for you to move around now?”

The voice was unmistakable.

“Lord Hein.”

Lord Hein was standing right by the door.
I don’t think I heard him open it, so I wondered when he had entered the room.
He quietly approached and sat on the edge of the bed.
I felt the heat I had just managed to suppress rush back to my cheeks.

“How are you feeling?”

“…Yes, I’m fine now. Um, about earlier… I was rude…”

I lowered my eyes and stammered, unable to meet Lord Hein’s gaze.
The memory of my impudence filled me with shame.

“Rude?”

Lord Hein tilted his head slightly, as if he had no idea what I was talking about.
Even that simple gesture seemed dazzling to me.

“The kiss… in such a place, like that…”

I couldn’t even bring myself to say it properly. I could feel my face burning.

“I see. Then I can’t let Miss Esmeralda be the only one embarrassed.”

Lord Hein said that and leaned closer to me—

“Ah…! Mmm…!”

He suddenly stole my lips.
What on earth was happening?
Was Lord Hein teasing me?
I couldn’t possibly push him away for being rude.
After all, I had initiated this.
And, to be honest, I didn’t dislike it at all.

“U-um… Lord Hein, why are you doing this…?”

Instead of answering, Lord Hein stole my lips again.
And that wasn’t all.
His kisses cascaded from my lips to my cheeks, then to my ears, and finally down my neck.
I was so embarrassed, I felt like I was going insane.
Oh no, I can’t take this anymore!
If this keeps up, my mind will shatter…!

“N-no, Lord Hein… This… this isn’t right…”

Despite my words, my body remained frozen. Instead, I arched my back further, as if begging for more.

“Ah, you’re right. This is wrong. I’m ashamed, too, rushing into something like this without any consideration for proper order. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say I’m making a complete fool of myself. But since I’ve already gone this far, shall we see how much further we can go?”

Lord Hein said this as he reached for my uniform.
Perhaps it was the silence of the room?
The sound of the buttons on my chest being undone echoed far too loudly.
I couldn’t move a muscle.
I knew this was wrong.
We were engaged, but this kind of thing should wait until after the wedding. Besides, even our engagement felt provisional—

(Ah, but…)

Lord Hein wanted to do it.
And I thought it might be alright if he did.
So I had only one thing to say.

“Please… be gentle, Lord Hein.”

When I said that, Lord Hein smiled sweetly—

“I’ll make it hurt. I’ll carve ‘me’ into your body.”

◇

“Don’t move,”

Lord Hein said as he began to undress me.
I remained still, letting him do as he pleased.
When all my clothes were stripped away, leaving me in only my underwear, my heart began to pound—thump, thump.
I wasn’t naive enough to not understand what was coming next.
The thought of experiencing something I’d never known before filled me with anxiety.
But—

“What’s this? Are you looking forward to it too? Your eyes are glistening. Why are you staring at me so hungrily? A lady shouldn’t be so greedy.”
I wanted to cover my face in shame, but my hands wouldn’t move.
If only I could close my eyes, but even that was impossible.
I must look utterly pathetic right now.
The thought only deepened my humiliation.

“Heh, you’re quite the cute one,”

Lord Hein chuckled, pinching my n1pple.

“Hyaah!”

An embarrassing sound escaped my lips.
His fingers continued to tease me, rolling my n1pple between them, sending a tickling sensation through me.

“Mmm, ah… n-no…!”

I tried to squirm, but my body remained frozen.

“You make such lovely noises… Though standing here lacks a certain charm.”

With that, Lord Hein laid me down on the bed.
I could feel a burning ache deep within my abdomen.
The mere touch of Lord Hein’s fingertips as they traced upward from my lower abdomen sent a shiver through me.

“F-ah… mmm…”

Each back-and-forth stroke sent a sharp, tingling sensation coursing through my body.

“I need to pamper you here too.”

Lord Hein murmured, his fingers finding my most sensitive spot. The shock was so intense that my vision momentarily went white.

“Ah! N-no, not there! Stop!”

The overwhelming pleasure nearly made me lose consciousness.

“What’s wrong? You’re enjoying this so much.”

Lord Hein said, relentlessly continuing his assault.

“Aah… ah… y-yah… mmm…”

Meaningless moans escaped my slackened lips.
Finally, I reached my limit.

“Ah… AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!”

My body trembled uncontrollably, my mind going blank.
No matter how much I had trained, I had never felt this utterly drained.
My limbs were weak, even closing my mouth felt like too much effort—but Lord Hein wouldn’t let me off so easily.

“I can’t stand the thought of you being the only one enjoying yourself. Now it’s your turn.”

With that, Lord Hein’s… member appeared before my face.
Its monstrous shape filled me with terror.
Thick and long, it was far more frightening than any sword.
Yet, mingled with the fear was a surge of excitement.

“You can use either your upper or lower mouth. I recommend the former.”

I instinctively understood what he meant by “mouth.”
To take this into my mouth… or to have it thrust inside me.
I hesitantly opened my mouth, sticking out my tongue to touch it.
The unique flavor that spread through my mouth momentarily bewildered me, but I managed to lick it thoroughly.
It’s hard… and hot. Is this really going inside me?
The mere thought made me want to shrink back in fear, but I desperately continued my service.
Eventually, it became too large to fit in my mouth. As I pulled it out and ran my tongue over it, suddenly my head was grabbed, and it was thrust deep into my throat.

“Gah!? Cough! Guf…!”

It was suffocating. I couldn’t breathe. I felt nauseous
Part of me wanted it to stop, while another, contradictory part craved more. The conflicting desires warred within me.
But after a while, I began to grasp the technique.
When I performed well, the texture of the magical power emanating from Lord Hein would subtly shift.
But—

“Alright, that’s enough for now.”

It had certainly been painful, so I felt a slight sense of relief. Yet, a part of me wished we could continue a little longer.
To be honest, I was starting to lose track of my own feelings.

“Don’t look so disappointed. Well… I suppose you did well enough. So, I’ll give you a reward…”

Lord Hein said this as he lay back on the bed.

“I’m not taking it from you. You’re offering it to me. And it goes without saying what that is, doesn’t it?”

I realized this moment had finally arrived.

“Yes… I will offer my first time to Lord Hein.”

With those words, I straddled him, took a deep breath, and slowly lowered myself onto him.
The pain… was there.
But it wasn’t unbearable.
The pleasure outweighed the pain.
Ah, the moment I realized I had finally crossed the line, my heart overflowed with a sense of fulfillment.

“Does it hurt?”

Lord Hein asked.
I nodded.

“Good. Then move your hips more. Every time it hurts, it means I’m being carved deeper into you. How does that sound? Pleasing, isn’t it?”

I nodded again and began to move my hips.
At first, my movements were clumsy, but gradually I grew accustomed to it. Soon, I could even adjust my motions to maximize Lord Hein’s pleasure.
Then—

“Ah…♡”

A moan escaped my lips involuntarily.
He had found my sweet spot.
Though I had been frightened at first, I gradually grew accustomed to it and began actively seeking that spot myself.
The pleasure threatened to make my legs buckle, but I continued moving my hips frantically, lost in the moment.

“Good, you’re doing well.”

His praise filled me with immense joy.
Before I knew it, the pain had completely vanished.

“You slutty woman. What’s with that face?”

I wondered what expression I wore, knowing only that I was drowning in pleasure.
I was completely oblivious to my surroundings.
My eyes saw only my beloved Lord Hein.

“Hah…♡ Hah…♡”

My breathing grew increasingly frantic as I sensed something approaching.
It was something I had never experienced before—yet somehow utterly magnificent.
Ah, something pure white…
And then, the moment finally arrived.
A meteor fell from the sky, destroying and incinerating everything.
Me, Lord Hein—even the planet we live on.

◇

“Haaah?!”

I jolted awake, finding myself lying in a bed.
Looking around, I saw several unfamiliar Healers peering down at me with worried expressions.

“Oh! You’re awake!”

One of them exclaimed with relief.
I could sense the other Healers sighing in relief at his words.
“Where… am I?”

I asked in a hoarse voice. The Healer who had spoken earlier answered,

“This is the infirmary. You were defeated in your match against Lord Hein Sera Aster, the Duke’s son, and brought here with injuries.”

The match… Lord Hein… That’s right, I lost to Lord Hein… and then…
The memory snapped me back to reality.
That kiss… that moment with Lord Hein… was it all just a dream?
I muttered in disbelief, and the Healers exchanged puzzled glances.

“A… a dream?”

“Yes…? Ah, you were tossing and turning, so you must have been having a nightmare.”

The healer’s words left me collapsing weakly onto the bed.
It was all a dream.
Everything had been a convenient fantasy, tailored to my desires…
The realization yanked me back to reality, leaving me utterly disheartened.
To have been desired so passionately, so fiercely…

(It was all a lie.)

As despair threatened to engulf me, I recalled the final scene of the dream.

(Ah, maybe it’s better this way.)

The world ending the moment I united with Lord Hein? That’s no laughing matter.
Lost in thought, I suddenly heard the healer speak, as if remembering something.

“Still, it’s astonishing that someone with such severe injuries shows almost no physical aftereffects. There aren’t even any scars, and of course, all your internal organs are completely unharmed. Normally, injuries of that magnitude would take quite some time to heal, even without scarring…”

At the Healer’s words, I instinctively lifted my shirt to examine my stomach.
I was grateful that he immediately averted his gaze.
There wasn’t a single scar on my abdomen.
It was as if nothing had ever happened.

“May I turn back now? … Yes, well, as you can see for yourself. A very simple healing spell has completely closed the wound without leaving a trace. … But that’s not all. It’s as if the area has been revitalized. The quality of the magical power it now possesses is… fresh, vibrant. I’m not sure how to describe it. Ah, yes, could you stand up for a moment?”

Following the Healer’s instructions, I rose from the bed.

“I don’t feel anything in particular.”

“Try moving around a bit. Even just walking is fine.”

I did as instructed.
Still, I felt nothing.

“How is it? Does it hurt?”

“…No.”

The Healer wore a knowing expression.

“As I suspected. Healing magic consumes tremendous stamina. To heal a wound like that, you shouldn’t even be able to walk properly. But…”

I was walking perfectly normally.
Of course, there was no pain.

“Well, not to put too fine a point on it, but it seems you were cut exceptionally skillfully…”

Something welled up inside me.
Not pain.
Something else, something hot.
Unable to bear it any longer, I instinctively pressed my hand to my chest and whispered softly,

“Lord Hein…”
