The World Is Mine For The Taking

Chapter 123 - Zeruel's Decision (8)



Princess Titania's eyes locked onto mine, sharp yet gentle, holding something that felt strangely heavy. Around us, the room fell into a hush so deep it felt like everyone was holding their breath. The air itself seemed to tighten the moment I'd blurted out that I wanted to sleep with Leon tonight.

"Are you sure?" Princess Titania asked, her voice softer than before, but still carrying a weight that made my chest tighten. It felt like she really wanted me to think it through and to be absolutely certain. "It's not something to rush into. And you really don't have to do it just because you feel guilty, thinking you're holding us all back. That isn't it at all."

I swallowed hard, my hands trembling slightly as I lowered my head. My fingers curled so tightly around the hem of my shirt that my knuckles turned white. The fabric felt rough against my skin, grounding me just a little. Then I dared to look back up, my heart pounding so hard it hurt.

"I'm... sure," I managed to say, my voice catching in my throat. "I think… if I don't do it now, it'll just make me more complacent." My words felt clumsy and raw, but they were the truth sitting heavy in my chest.

Their eyes flickered between each other, silent and searching, like they were trying to read me as well as trying to see if I really meant it—or if I was just swept away by everything happening.

"Are you really sure?" another voice asked, the question hanging there like a final test.

"I'm very sure," I said again, adding "very" to make it sound stronger, even though inside my heart felt like it might crack from beating so fast.

And then, maybe because words alone weren't enough, I reached out, my hand trembling slightly as I grabbed the wine bottle. I poured it into the nearest glass, the dark liquid swirling as it filled to the brim. Without hesitating, I lifted it to my lips and drank it down all at once.

The wine tasted deep and rich on my tongue, its warmth sliding down my throat and spreading through my chest. Even after so many sips tonight, it hadn't lost its flavor and somehow, it felt even more alive, like it matched the heat now swirling through my veins.

"Y-You really do seem sure about this, huh?" Titania finally said, her gaze softening, a faint smile curling at the corner of her lips. Seeing my determination must've settled something in her mind. "Well then. If that's the case, let's start by calling Leon."

Her fingers danced over the screen of her phone as she dialed. The call barely rang once before it connected.

"Hello?" came a voice from the other end.

The moment I heard it, everything inside me seemed to jolt.

It was Leon.

Even just hearing his voice, filtered through the phone, sent a wave of heat flushing up my neck and across my face. Down between my legs, a slow, tingling warmth started to build, embarrassing but impossible to ignore.

"Ah, hello, Leon," Princess Titania said sweetly, glancing around at all of us with a mischievous twinkle in her eye.

Princess Myrcella giggled beside her, the sound soft but dripping with a sense of secret anticipation, like they were all in on something.

"Are you busy right now? Where are you?" Titania asked, keeping her voice casual but the look on her face giving away just how playful she felt.

"I'm right here in my dorm room. Why?" Leon's voice answered, calm and almost curious.

"Well, can you come over here? Yr and Isiliraiellyn are completely smashed with alcohol right now and they can barely move. I asked them to sleep here, and Yr agreed, but Isiliraiellyn's insisting she can't sleep without her blanket. So, I thought maybe you could come carry her back for us?"

"Of course… though, I honestly can't picture Isiliraiellyn being so attached to something like a comfort blanket," Leon replied, and even through the phone, I could hear the light amusement in his voice.

"Fufufufu... well, there are always things you don't know about her, right?" Titania teased, her tone dripping with playful mystery.

"I suppose so. She's always been a bit of an enigma," Leon said, sounding almost fond. "Alright then, wait for me. I'll head over as soon as possible."

"Alright. See ya!" Titania chirped, ending the call.

She lowered her phone, and as she looked up, a grin slowly stretched across her face, so wide it almost seemed to glow with mischief.

"Hehehehe~ He's coming now… Now then, why don't we get ready before he arrives," she said, her voice dropping into something almost conspiratorial.

"G-Get ready?" I echoed, my voice cracking slightly from nerves. My pulse thudded in my ears so loudly I could barely hear myself think.

What were we supposed to get ready for?

"You don't have to overthink it," Titania said, her gaze turning softer but still teasing, her smile curling slyly. "Just do something like this…" She slid one sleeve off her shoulder, the silky fabric slipping away to reveal pale skin. "Make yourself look more erotic. If you do, Leon's eyes won't be able to leave you."

"I-I see…" I mumbled, barely able to get the words out as heat rushed up my neck and burned in my cheeks.

Then I looked around and froze, my breath catching in my throat.

Princess Myrcella had already stripped down until she was standing there in just her bra and panties—delicate, lacy, expensive-looking fabric hugging her curves. A matching garter belt wrapped around her hips, accentuating her already perfect hourglass figure.

My eyes widened even more as I saw Miss Trill quietly slipping out of her clothes as well, left in elegant lingerie that showed off her strong, toned stomach and graceful curves. Her figure was powerful, yet it didn't take away from her raw sexiness at all and it almost made it stronger.

Miss Yr who had just woken up from being drunk started pulling off her clothes too, and when Miss Isiliraiellyn saw that, she excitedly followed. Even though they were petite, their delicate, almost fairy-like beauty was impossible not to notice.

"Or you could do just what they're doing," Titania said lightly, glancing at them with a playful look. "Well, since they're already getting undressed, why don't we do the same?"

My stomach twisted with nerves, but before I could talk myself out of it, Titania herself began slipping off her clothes, piece by piece, until she stood in nothing but her own lingerie.

Then, like it was the most natural thing in the world, they all moved toward the bed.

Titania caught my hesitant gaze and tilted her head, smiling softly. "What? Come, Zeruel," she coaxed, her voice gentle yet teasing.

My hands trembled, but I forced myself to move, my heart pounding so loud it felt like it shook my chest. I peeled off my clothes, piece by piece, until only my underwear remained. My skin felt hot and exposed, but I took a breath and stepped closer.

Together, we all climbed onto the bed, lying down and lining ourselves up, with me right in the middle. The sheets felt cool against my warm skin, my heart racing so wildly I thought it might break through my ribs.

And then, not long after, I heard Leon's voice from the doorway.

"Coming in…"

"W-Welcome...~" I managed to say, my voice shaking, but still finding the courage to speak the words Titania had told me earlier.

Even though my whole body felt like it was burning from embarrassment and anticipation, the words slipped out, softer and sweeter than I expected.
