The Duchess and the Devil - Chapter 46.2

Derrick’s straight nose explored Judith’s neckline, who at that moment managed to forget about all her worries in just an instant. Every time the demon took a deep breath, you could see his muscular chest expanding.

Judith gently touched Derrick’s chin with her fingers.

– Are you okay? Was it difficult?

“This is so annoying,” he muttered quietly and a little nervously.

Judith lifted her husband’s chin to look into his eyes.

– Because of His Majesty’s smell?

– And this too.

Judith closed her eyes, trying to figure out what else could affect the demon in this way. Derrick sighed again, resting his forehead on her shoulder.

– You better be careful.

– With whom?

– With the Emperor.

– Why? Did you feel something?

Judith was surprised, because of the three candidates, the Emperor is the person who seems less suspicious, because there are practically no clues associated with him. The couple was never able to find out much information about Killard or his identity, because all of it is classified. Such is the privilege of the Emperor.

But if Derrick talks about it so confidently, he definitely knows something. And from this curiosity increased. The demon, having examined Judith, touched her small hand.

– He’s just dangerous.

– Do you think he’s Hannibal?

– No. There is nothing suspicious about his energy.

And only at that moment Judith realized what he meant. The Emperor is dangerous to her not as a “demon”, but as a “human”. However, this is obvious information.

“But we already knew that he was dangerous.”

– Yes. But still be careful. Last time it wasn’t as bad as today.

– But why are you telling me this?

Judith didn’t quite understand why she, and not Derrick, should be careful.

— The energy I feel comes from the depths of my soul. And it’s different from what you see. That’s why you should be careful.

Judith sighed, remembering the first time she saw the demon, and Derrick continued:

“That son of a bitch is angry with you for some reason.”

Judith was scared for a moment, frozen as stone. It seemed to her that she had misheard, because it simply could not be true. She would never have thought that the Emperor was angry with her for something, because this is madness. Judith’s embarrassed eyes began to tremble.

– What do you mean?

“Unfortunately, he smells the same as me,” Derrick touched his wife’s hips.

The girl wanted to break free, but the demon squeezed her hand tightly so that she could not move. An electric discharge ran through the body, reaching the very heart and concentrating in the lower abdomen. Between her legs, the Duchess felt a hard penis. Derrick again began to explore his wife’s neck with his nose, inhaling her scent.

— I smelled the scent of an excited man.

Judith’s heart seemed to stop at these words.

“But… I’m the wife of his close friend, how can this be true?”

Hearing such innocent words, Derrick wanted to laugh. It seemed as if there was a small child standing in front of him who did not yet know this world at all. Relaxing his grip on his hips, he pulled away from Judith and said seriously:

– Don’t be alone with him.

“This will not happen.” Judith had never been alone with the Emperor in the past, before or after the wedding. So I didn’t even worry about something like that. There was always someone nearby during meetings – Derrick or other aristocrats.

***

The couple returned home late in the evening. As soon as Judith entered the bedroom, she immediately took off the dress she had been wearing all day and the necklace that tied her neck like a vice. And at that moment, the Duchess remembered Killard’s awkward look when he said that the jewelry suited her very well.

Judith couldn’t think or remember the Emperor anymore after her conversation with Derrick, so she immediately tried to push all those thoughts away. Finally, having changed into a simple home outfit, the Duchess went down to the first floor – to the dining room. The food and surroundings seemed very familiar and pleasant. That is why Judith felt comfortable at home.

When the relationship between the spouses changed, the atmosphere of the entire house also became completely different. In the past, the mansion was cold because Judith and Derrick couldn’t even stand seeing each other, let alone talking or anything else. Remembering this, the Duchess sighed.

Today the food seemed surprisingly tasteless, and it was all because of thoughts: from Vincent and his personality to the Emperor. But suddenly Judith shuddered. Derrick reached out and touched her lips.

“You’re dirty,” he smeared the sauce on the girl’s cheek and casually licked her.
