These were the only fears and regrets she grappled with at that moment before learning more about the Vylkr veil phenomenon from Orion. While she felt a sense of relief knowing that imminent death wasn't looming over them, this event served as a wake-up call, prompting her to take action before living the rest of her life in regret.
Thankfully, Ingrid and the others had helped her plan everything out, ensuring that everything would fall into place perfectly.
She also couldn't overlook the fact that she had come this far because Orion was the kind of man who wouldn't discriminate against an aged woman like her despite her protruding buttocks and large breasts. Even though such views were only in the village and weren't in the Orion's cities or compared to what she had witnessed in Orion's manor, considering she had never had a man fondle them before, it was a little hard for her not to feel self-conscious.
Orion and Seraphina soon arrived at the bathroom and stood before Meldra.
Orion cleared his throat, asking curiously, "What are you doing standing here, Meldra? Is something wrong?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeldra quickly shook her head in response. "I noticed when you returned home, and since everyone is currently tired or asleep, I decided to personally prepare and help you take your bath since you might also be tired from dealing with the emergence of the Vylkr veil phenomenon today," she responded, sneaking a glance at Seraphina, who was standing beside Orion and wasn't wearing any attire like him.
Meldra couldn't help but feel her heartbeat speed up drastically, understanding that they wanted to continue their session in the bathroom. She was afraid that Orion would refuse her help, especially since Seraphina was already present.
"It's good that you're here, Meldra. You can help Orion bathe so he can quickly rest and prepare for tomorrow. He has a lot to deal with after all, with the emergence of the Vylkr viel phenomenon," Seraphina said, smiling at Orion before winking directly at Meldra.
Meldra's eyes widened at Seraphina's action, feeling her heartbeat return to normal. "Thank you?" She muttered silently.
Orion inwardly exhaled. Though he could handle his bath alone, he understood he needed to play along. "Alright. But you still need to bathe before returning to your room to rest. Aren't you going to join us?" he asked.
Hearing Orion's question, Meldra's body froze, and she felt her heartbeat racing again. She looked at Seraphina, awaiting her response.
Seraphina glanced at Orion from the corner of her eye and playfully pinched his waist, "Don't worry, I'll use the other master bath or go to another building," she responded with a smirk.
Then, she refocused on Meldra, "I'll be leaving him in your capable hands. Take care of him," she added, leaning in to kiss Orion on the lips and then his cheeks before pulling back.
Meldra felt her heartbeat calm down again and nodded firmly. "I'll do my best," she responded determinedly.
Seraphina smiled in response and turned to leave, disappearing into the corridors.
"Ahem! Let's go in, Orion; your bath is ready," Meldra said, clearing her throat to get Orion's attention.
Orion shifted his focus back to Meldra, noticing immediately that she was wearing Ingrid's old tulga. He recognized it from the countless times they had undressed during kushi andfromtheir recent family roleplay session involving their village attire. He couldn't discern if she wore it to catch his attention or due to a lack of confidence, but he knew he would find out soon enough.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOrion nodded and stepped into the master bathroom. He watched as she closed the door behind them before guiding him to the shower area. As they moved forward, Orion couldn't resist stealing glances at Meldra's partially covered buttocks. Despite its apparent mismatch in size, the borrowed tulga was incredibly erotic on her.
Suddenly, she bent down as if checking the water temperature. The hem of her borrowed tulga, barely covering half of her protruding buttocks, rose again, revealing them fully. As though sensing the cool breeze against her exposed cheeks, Meldra attempted to pull the fabric down with one hand, but it was futile; the borrowed tulga failed to conceal her alluring curves.
Orion wasn't sure if Meldra had planned this scenario beforehand, considering they could simply use the shower. Nevertheless, he couldn't deny the sensual appeal of the moment and appreciated her efforts to set the mood. However, he wasn't giving in easily despite his hardened member already erect and throbbing fiercely.
After a few seconds, Meldra stood back up and directed Orion to the bathing area. She scooped water from a small bowl in the bucket and poured it over his body. She then began applying ointments, prepared by Greta and Seraphina, to Orion's skin before washing them off with more water.
As she assisted him with his bath, the water also splashed onto her, soaking her tulga and revealing soaked patches that highlighted the lower sides of her breasts and erect nipples pushing against the borrowed tulga as if trying to burst out.
Seeing Meldra's dedication, Orion finally decided to reciprocate. "Why don't you join me so we can bathe together?" he suggested.
Meldra halted her actions and looked at Orion with furrowed brows. "Are you sure about that, Orion? I want to give you a quick bath so you can head back and rest for tomorrow. I don't want to cause you any trouble," she responded, shaking her head in disagreement.
"Yes, I'm sure. Also, you don't need to worry. I will be fine even if I don't go to sleep in a week. I only keep doing it because it's become so ingrained in me that it feels instinctual to do so whenever I lay down. So you don't have to worry about causing any problems. Besides, I don't want you to be the last remaining person still working while everyone elseis resting," Oroin responded firmly.
Orion wasn't sure if this was also planned, but he played along.
