Wait a minute… the brew! Of course! I could just use it on her.
And technically… it wasn't a bad idea. After all, the brew hadn't been tested yet, I still hadn't gotten my close-up with Luno, and right now, we were alone in the house. It was like fate itself had handed me this opportunity. And I sure as hell wasn't going to fumble it.
But how exactly am I going to get her to drink this?
I paused, thinking quickly, then made up my mind. I'd see what Luno was up to.
I left the room, clutching the vial carefully, and peeked around the hallway into the dining area. The table was already set, plates and cutlery in place—Luno had definitely done that.
My eyes landed on the two cups of water sitting side by side. A sly grin spread across my face.
Heh heh… this is going to be easier than I thought.
I stepped toward the table quietly, careful not to make a sound, and held up the vial, giving it a little shake—mixing up all that… juicy goodness.
Then i noticed something.
I could barely hear the sloshing sounds of the liquid inside.
"Huh... that's odd." I muttered, shrugging. It's magic… maybe that's how it's supposed to sound.
I opened it's lid and tilted the vial again, letting a tiny trickle flow into one of the cups of water. Just a small amount to get the job done.
"Perfect! That should be enough." I felt a small smirk creep onto my face.
Then… the liquid just stopped. No more poured out.
I stood still, desperately hopingthat it wasn't what i though it was. The vial was lighter than before.
I shook it gently, and not a single sound was made. It was empty. Every last drop gone, vanished in just that single pour.
Shit… shit… shit… shit… shit… shit!
My heart raced. If Gaylord—or anyone—found out I'd laced his daughter's drink with the brew and wasted it… they would lose it. Especially Gaylord. I could practically see the fury on his face.
Then, I heard Luno calling out from the kitchen. "I'm done with lunch! I'll start bringing it out now."
My eyes widened in alarm.
No… no, no, no.
I glanced down at the empty vial i was still clutching, then back toward the kitchen door. I had to hide it—now.
I bolted back to my room, slamming the door just enough to be out of sight, and tucked the vial into my deserted pile of clothes.
When I returned to the table, my heart dropped.
Both cups of water… had been moved. Shifted from where set up moments ago.
My mind began spinning.
Which one was hers? Which one was mine?
I turned to Luno. "Umm… Luno?"
She looked up at me, eyebrows raised. "Mhmm?"
I hesitated for a moment before uttering, "Nevermind."
She probably doesn't even know the difference,
I thought grimly.
I sat down, tense, and we started eating. With every bite she took, I monitored her like a hawk, waiting for her to take her cup. Finally, she did.
I pretended to sip mine as well, but keeping both food and water in my mouth was growing increasingly difficult—disgusting, even—especially with Luno glancing at me from time to time. At this point, It's all or nothing. With a deep breath, I swallowed the water.
"This tastes… weird," I said, feigning discomfort.
Luno frowned, looking confused. "Does it?"
I nodded seriously. "Yes. You can even try it out." I carefully handed my cup over to her, praying silently that she'd take it.
Her cheeks flushed faintly as she reached for it, her hands shaking slightly. She tasted it and tilted her head. "It doesn't taste weird."
A moment passed.
"Alright," I said. "Then how about we… exchange cups?"
She hesitated for a moment, the pink colour on her cheeks deepening, but then nodded.
I took her cup, eyeing its contents suspiciously before drinking from it. She was watching intently, so I had no choice but to swallow the water.
After lunch, Luno began swaying slightly.
"I… I feel a little dizzy." Her hand moved to support her head "I'll go to my room."
I only watched, knowing fully well what was wrong with her.
The brew… it must be working.
Luno stepped into the hallway—well, more like she staggered.
I grinned.
I did it… finally!
I got up to follow her, but a sharp headache hit me. My vision blurred, and i started seeing stars.
Aargh!!
It was most likely a side effect of the brew.
I gritted my teeth and staggered forward, forcing myself toward my room, hoping I could lay in bed till it wares off.
When I entered, what I saw made me go on heat.
Luno was there, lying on the bed, legs spread, touching herself shamelessly. The fertility brew had completely taken over her, and she had no control over her desire.
The moment she saw me, she let out a soft moan, and her hands moved across her slick folds before spreading them wide.
"Ren... Nngh~"
