Chapter 16

He muttered that it would be nice, that was the root cause. He was in trouble again when she brought something like a horse whip with a lot of leather from where she got it. As she hit the target without properly targeting it, Calix was only hit hard at the area around his chest. The battered leather wrapped around his skin and clung to him, leaving his forearms and chest covered with long, red scars. Thanks to the scratches that looked suspicious to others, they were not even seen by the lawmakers.

In the end, he had to go around wrapped up rather tightly than when only the inverted nipples were the problem. “Do not worry. I checked everything today and brought it.”

Emilia glanced at Calix as if she had committed a sin, but she stopped what she was doing while looking at the corners of his mouth that went up. She took out a white candle from the basket she had cherished. Then, after looking at the seated Calix and the candle in her hand a couple of times, she turned her wrist to and fro, contemplating something.

“Hmm, I can’t get the angle… I can’t help it, Archduke. You’d rather lie in bed today than on the couch.”

“What are you going to do with it?”

“What do you do with candles? First, light a fire here, and when the wax melts, drop it on the Grand Duke’s chest. But when I sit down, that angle doesn’t come out at all. What if it falls on top of that groin? Do you have anything to do with the heir of the Grand Duchess?”

“Where do these nonsense thoughts come from?tsk.” Calix’s expression frowned at once.

How can you be so grotesque and bewildered? He wondered if he should at least find out where she was and what she was doing before she came in as a maid.

“Who did you hear it from? If you dab this candle wax on your bare skin, your whole body will tingle and chicken meat will pop out.”

“Who the hell said that…!”

“Shh! I can’t tell you even if you are the Grand Duke. It’s a girls’ secret.”

“under……!” Emilia stuck out her index finger with a calm face and covered his mouth.

For a moment, his mouth fell open in absurdity, but soon Calix calmly went to bed and lay down. ‘I’m going to do whatever she wants me to do, but…?

As he listened to that confidence-filled chatter, an uneasiness surged in his mind along with the possibility. “I should have burned it once or twice.”

She approached him, ready to sit next to him lying with nervousness. Emilia opened the lid of the lamp, lit a candle, and set it down on the bedside table.

The heat of a small fire was added to the center of the concave melting candle, and translucent candle wax collected. “You mean to put that on my chest.”

“Yes, I’m sure the Archduke’s tip will be able to rise sharply like chicken meat.”

“This is safe…, right?”

His deep golden eyes swayed precariously like a candle on a table. It was a very unreliable look.

“Trust me. My sister Jessie, ah! Just now, this is a secret from you.”

“I don’t even know who your sister Jessie is, ah!”

“Anyway. Anyway, unlike normal candles, this is safe, she said it was okay.”

“How safe is it?”

“Eh, indeed! You’re going to do it anyway, but you have a lot of doubts… Maybe it’s because it’s a scented candle for massage. So temperature than other candles is low.”

“Emilia, you must have had an accident..”
