Chapter 19 Side Story: Veras Treasure (1/2)

Indeed, as expected, the Young Master's smell is the best smell. Rich, decadent and oh-so-very addicting.

Although all previous attempts met with failure today was unexpectedly rewarding. Not only was it bathed in Young Master's potent juices, even his lifeblood was thoroughly soaked in.

If Mother knew how bountiful a harvest I just had I'm sure she'd be squirming with jealousy.

Though I must admit, even I was surprised by my boldness this time. I'd never tried something like that before now.

I couldn't wait to properly seal and store my new treasure for later, more thorough enjoyment.

Literally.

So I found myself a quiet area and wrapped the torn-up cloth around my head like it were a scarf. The thick, Young Master-scented musk forced it's way into my nostrils and lingered deliciously.

I took a deep, deep, breath.

....Bliss....

Yes, I thought for the thousandth time. The Young Master's smell is certainly the most--

”What are you doing?”

I froze, suddenly finding myself in front of that new woman, Minerva.

She was someone the Young Master recently took interest in, as well as the reason for him falling out with Lady Claybrook.

I examined her closely. She was a pretty mutant woman with two cat ears perched neatly atop her head. She did originally come with a hood but that had long since been destroyed by Lord Kane who thought the action of hiding herself under the dark cloth a form of disrespect, or so I hear.

She was currently staring at me with deep confusion.

This went on for several long moments.

Time seemed to have stopped. An awkward silence hung in the air.
