“…Is it Adela?”
“Yeah, apparently.”
“…That can’t be…”
Seriously, even as siblings, isn’t that a bit much?
I never thought of Adela as someone who had zero interest in the opposite sex.
Adela’s just a totally normal girl, you know.
What does siblinghood even mean…?
I found it hard to grasp since I didn’t have any siblings myself.
If I had at least had a sister, it might have been a bit different…
Of course, it’s not like I could just ask Dad for a sibling now that he’s tied the knot again.
He could technically untie it with magic, but still.
“Anyway, I’m looking forward to this coming-of-age ceremony for a different reason.”
And I really was.
To be honest, Kyle’s coming-of-age ceremony made me more worried than excited.
I can’t even begin to express how worried I was about what would happen afterward.
If Kyle even attempted that again, I’d make sure he couldn’t do it.
“This time, at least it won’t be like last time… and there’ll be no weird stuff, so I can relax.”
“Oh, that time.”
“Yeah, that time.”
Kyle got the gist without needing me to describe it in detail.
That incident had me in knots for sure.
I was probably the most anxious about Kyle than about anything else.
“Back then, after it all wrapped up, Sophia was waiting for me in my room.”
“…Did she?”
“Yeah, she did. I ended up misunderstanding things about Sophia all alone.”
“…”
Oh, right.
That was a while ago, so it slipped my mind.
I didn’t even realize I’d done that.
Interesting.
“Anyway, you must have enjoyed it too, right? So it’s all good.”
“…Yeah, I guess.”
Kyle seemed to want to brush it off, but I let it slide.
Though we were eating slowly, if we kept chatting during the meal, we’d surely end up not eating at all.
“But what kind of person is she?”
“Who?”
“Adela, the girl you like.”
“Well, it’s Adela, so she’s definitely not normal.”
“No, why do you say that? Just be honest.”
He’d bashed Adela too much; it was impossible not to react.
No matter what, a normal convo should happen, right?
But with Kyle continuously badmouthing Adela, I really couldn’t help it.
Normally, they were so close; why the sudden bashing?
Especially since Adela cutely called Kyle ‘Onni~.’
“Huh? Kyle, why do you act all weird when Adela’s mentioned?”
“…”
“Hey?”
Kyle suddenly looked away, focusing on some other spot.
“Kyle?”
“…”
“Hey…?”
He was refusing to even think about answering, just shifting his gaze elsewhere.
No matter how I shifted my body, Kyle kept subtly turning his head away from me.
“Hey.”
Though I was eating, it was just hard to hold back.
How dare my younger sibling ignore me?
After all, our relationship wasn’t that of a noble and a commoner.
We were already married and in a relationship without any formalities.
Of course, it annoyed me when my younger sibling ignored me like I was nothing.
“Kyle. Answer within five seconds.”
“…?”
“5.”
I decided to use a method Mom used long ago.
This tantrum was usually the most effective when he wouldn’t listen.
“4.”
I slowly counted down.
It shouldn’t take too long since it was only five seconds.
“3.”
Kyle seemed perplexed by my counting, not saying a word.
Did he not understand what I was doing?
“1.”
“…What is it?”
I counted all the way down, but Kyle had said nothing.
I was only curious about why he acted childish whenever Adela was brought up, but why?
It was beyond puzzling to the point of making me sigh.
Seriously.
“Hmph.”
“…Sophia?”
“Hmph!!!”
I crossed my arms and turned my gaze away from Kyle.
It was just as childish as what Kyle was doing earlier.
Of course, I was being more childish copying him, but that wasn’t the point.
He had been thinking about it in front of me, after all.
I couldn’t help but feel upset…
“I’m not gonna do it from today.”
That was a straightforward declaration.
I didn’t even say how long this would last; I’d just started.
Of course, the duration was entirely up to me.
I had few demands from Kyle, so I could enjoy tormenting him however I wanted!
*
“…Sophia?”
“What?”
“Uh, I didn’t avoid answering for a weird reason, it’s just that… siblings don’t usually…”
“Whatever. My wife was curious, and you can’t just brush it off like that.”
“…”
It had been three days since I spoke with Kyle.
Even in dreams, he didn’t do anything; it was just sleep.
Normally, we’d be intimate at least once every few days, but I was definitely in a pouty mood this time.
I was particularly upset since Kyle usually treated me well.
He was so unlike himself, dodging my questions.
“I didn’t ask anything strange; I just wanted to know why you react so negatively when Adela is mentioned.”
“…I’m sorry…”
“Okay, but still, I’m not gonna do it.”
It was too late.
I knew Kyle’s thing had been quite eager in the mornings lately, but I wasn’t doing anything.
Absolutely not.
That’s how upset I was about this.
Sure, it seemed like a silly reason to be annoyed, but I was genuinely upset over it.
“Even if we don’t have sex, we can still be fine, right?”
I said it with a smile for Kyle to clearly see how upset I was.
“…Yeah.”
Kyle nodded at my words in response.
Honestly, it had been a few days, so my annoyance had diminished, but I stuck to it.
It was fun, after all.
The real joy came from how much I enjoyed seeing him squirm, like wanting to be close, but unable to say anything.
“Meeting like this isn’t all about that, right?”
“Well, yeah.”
Ah, this is entertaining.
So much fun.
So exhilarating!
“Ha…”
In reality, I wouldn’t avoid it forever, but I figured I’d enjoy this for about two days before getting back to it.
It’s not that I didn’t want to; it was just too much fun to tease Kyle.
*
“Kyle, are you gonna sleep now?”
“…”
“Kyle?”
“Ah, yeah.”
Kyle seemed a bit out of it.
He was totally normal during the day, so what was going on?
“You okay?”
“…Yeah.”
“…?”
I felt something was off.
Lying in bed trying to talk, he seemed to be in poor condition.
And there was this overpowering sweet scent in the air.
“Kyle, you’re not feeling sick or anything, right?”
“…Of course, not.”
“Then that’s a relief…”
For now, I snuggled close to Kyle, still covered by the blanket.
If he really felt bad, he would have said something.
Even though Kyle could be dense at times, he wouldn’t intentionally put up a front with me.
After all, he’d gotten a serious scolding for that back at home.
Things were a bit different now, but still.
“Hmph… sniff sniff…”
“Sophia?”
“Yeah?”
“Why are you suddenly sniffing?”
“Oh.”
I couldn’t ignore the sweet scent wafting from somewhere.
I had no clue what it was, but it popped up out of the blue.
“It smells sweet all of a sudden.”
“Sweet scent…?”
“Yeah.”
I could feel that kind of aroma lingering in the air.
“Hmph…”
“I don’t smell anything…”
“Is it just me?”
“Yeah.”
Really…?
Then what exactly was causing this sudden scent?
Considering I hadn’t done anything, why was Kyle’s getting hard…
“Ah.”
I understood now.
Originally, I wouldn’t have been able to smell this, nor figure out why.
After all, a normal person wouldn’t be able to tell.
But since I was different, I could notice.
In many ways, I was capable of sensing more than most.
“…Why are you staring at me all of a sudden?”
Kyle’s reaction was quite clear when I pierced my gaze into him.
He probably wondered why I was staring without explanation.
But I figured it out.
I knew why he seemed so off earlier.
Why I caught the sweet scent.
“…Hey.”
“Yeah?”
“You… um…”
I’d seen Kyle’s member before, after all.
I’d been intimate and saw it several times, even put it in my mouth.
So it was something I was familiar with.
But bringing it up directly in a sober conversation was entirely different.
“…It got bigger.”
I spoke without mentioning it explicitly.
It was slightly embarrassing to just blurt it out.
This was far from an exhilarating time; it was just a normal situation.
“…Ah.”
Kyle seemed to understand why I was acting this way.
After all, his… thing wasn’t touching me either.
It made sense if he didn’t catch on.
But the problem was I was someone who couldn’t ignore it.
Being a succubus, having a heightened sensitivity to male arousal and essence was natural.
Taste and smell were part of that.
“…Kyle, hasn’t it been about three days since we… you know?”
“…Yeah, that’s right.”
Three days.
Three whole days.
And that wasn’t just once; it had been around five times that day.
Five intense, passionate rounds.
Even before that, we might have gotten into it one or two times, but why…
“Hah…”
Okay, I knew Kyle could hold off without struggling for days on end.
It was only natural for his stamina to be through the roof.
But… I had no idea it could build up to this level.
Three days and running, and he was this pent-up…?
I’d jokingly asked him if he was a stallion before, but honestly, it started to feel like he could be one…
“…Hey, get undressed.”
With the way things were, Kyle would feel awkward, and I couldn’t sleep comfortably with him… you know, being hard and all.
For real.
Honestly, I had planned to wait a few more days, but I had no choice.
We both needed sleep, and secretly, I was a bit… turned on too.
