The Duchess and the Devil - Chapter 37.1

Her neatly tied silver hair was disheveled, her normally white face had taken on a reddish tint, her lips were stained and her makeup was ruined. Moreover, a red mark was visible on the neck. However, all this seemed like nothing in comparison with the pleasure and heaviness in my hips. Judith breathed heavily and wiped her lips with the back of her hand.

“Are you worried that they might come here?”

Duchess’s hands were wet with saliva, but Derrick still bit the tip of her finger as if it were a cigar.

-Your heart is beating so fast.

The distance to the pavilion where the ladies were sitting was very short. And anyone could find spouses in just a few minutes. Judith looked pointedly at Derrick, holding back a groan.

“If you know, stop it,” she felt so strange saying something like that, but still tried to control herself.

This incomprehensible feeling was amazing: when you abstain from something so desired. After all, it’s enough to just give in to passion. But, fortunately, Derrick no longer put pressure on the Duchess and retreated. However, everyone understood that this was not the end.

The demon carefully wiped his own lips with his sleeve, smiling and pretending that nothing had happened. But Judith did not calm down, which is why Derrick told the guard standing nearby to call the maid.

“We’ll stop for now,” he said, seeing the girl running towards them.

Finally, after kissing Judith one more time, Derrick headed towards the mansion. Having quickly appeared at the tea party and turned it into a spacious battlefield, the demon was satisfied and just as quickly left. Having accepted the help of the maid, the Duchess looked after him.

The maid straightened her clothes, hair and makeup so that Judith could finally come to the tea party again. The Duchess could not tie her hair back because of the mark on her neck, so, getting ready, she walked proudly into the gazebo:

“I’m very sorry that I had to leave you.”

It was clear from the expressions on the ladies’ faces that they still didn’t believe what had just happened in front of them. But still, one of them decided to break the silence:

“The Duke takes such good care of you, madam.”

– Yes, I was also surprised that your husband does such things…

– Agree!

One by one the girls picked up the idea.

– According to rumors, Duke Derrick is a very ridiculous and rude person. But today it didn’t seem like the truth at all!

Everyone around had doubts, because everyone in society knew: Derrick’s true love was Sylvia. But, nevertheless, after something like this, not one of the ladies would dare to mention the Duke’s affair. Whenever the subject of her husband was mentioned, Judith’s breath froze. But now she felt very calm and free.

Strangely enough, the Duchess received stability not from her late husband, but from a demon.
