-Chapter 61-

I whispered the 'in bed' part in his ear, and slowly Killian's earlobe began to flush.

I continued, "I love the way your back and shoulders and arm muscles move when you grip, extend, and swing your sword, and I can tell you've been training hard for a long time."

Despite the heat rising in his face, Killian didn't bother to stop me.

However, he did make some unnecessary remarks.

"You seem to have some pretty firm standards for observing a man's body," he said.

"Yes, just as you have your own preferences for observing a woman's body."

For someone who loved the slender Lizé, Killian tended to obsess over the 'voluptuous' parts of my body.

Whether he realized it or not, Killian's face was now too flushed for words.

He can be so out of this world when provoked, but at times like this, he's surprisingly innocent.

Then, suddenly, he stiffened up and asked, "By the way, if you've been spying on me...... I assume you've also seen Cliff?"

"Oh, because the two of you always train together."

"Do you looked at Cliff's body like that too?"

"You can't make the visible invisible."

Killian's eyes turned fierce.

I wondered why he'd taken his jealousy out on me if he liked Lizé.

But if I ended this date with his feelings hurt, it would be dangerous going forward, so I needed to let him off the hook.

"Of course, my preference is yours. I like round and firm muscles."

"To be honest, Cliff's muscles are a little more firm...... I tend to gain weight when I get a little lazy."

"But your butt is tighter......."

"Oh?"

Oops, I've slipped into my own talk. I wonder why I dragged the topic of conversation down to the lower half of the body.

I quietly lowered my hands, which I had raised as if to grab something.

Killian smirked. "I thought you liked my chest, but is was my butt? Ha...... you are naughty......"

"W- w- what the hell? I'm na- Ha... but we're a married couple......"

I shook my head in disbelief, but Killian's eyes sparkled in a way I'd never seen before.

"Yes we are a married couple. So we can stare at each other's chests and butts with confidence."

I stared at him in shock, "Ha... T- that's....... right."

The heat was now rising to the nape of my neck as well. I wish we could stop talking about this topic now......

"The breeze has cooled off, but it's still summer." Killian noted.

"Yeah, it's a little hot......"

I was fanning myself, glad for the change of topic, until Killian grabbed my waist and pulled me close, whispering, "Let's wash off the sweat together, shall we......"

"What......?"

As I stood there dumbfounded, he called a distant maid and ordered her to quickly prepare the bath water.

And while the maid ran off, he continued his walk, hugging my waist as if nothing had happened.

It was exactly fifteen minutes later that the maid had the bath water ready.
