Chapter 57: No golem


    After Sara left the kitchen to go to Schnee’s room, Alex didn’t waste time.


    He headed straight to Ste’s room, which was always open for him.


    From the beginning, Ste wanted Alex to take care of her.


    Knowing that, and the fact that Sara told him to not hold back, Alex wasn’t feeling nervous or stressed. It would be the reunion in which he would congratte Ste for following the proper routine.


    Although Ste took care of herself and the room solely due to Celia’s warnings, she still followed the little duhan and Alex’s wish. Both of them wanted the wingeddy to have a better lifestyle.


    Thus, Alex naturally wanted to praise Ste.


    In a few minutes, he appeared before her doors. Out of courtesy, Alex knocked on those doors. Of course, deep inside, Alex knew she wouldn’t answer him.


    He waited a few seconds, then stepped in.


    Ste’s room was in much better shape than before. It had been some time since Celia’sst visit, so it was just a little messy here. Nheless, the contrast between her old room and the current one was clear.


    Alex smiled and approached the sleepingdy.


    For azy person, Ste had a few sleeping positions. Her current one was her sleeping soundlessly while sprawled. Her white wings were spread widely behind her, bing anotherfortableyer for the white-haired beauty.


    In that pose, Ste revealed the full potential of her curves.


    On his way, Alex unconsciously took a few nces here and here. The images of her long legs, thick thighs, slim stomach, and big breasts going up and down shed a few times as if tempting him to seize all of Ste for himself.


    Such a defenseless woman in her pajamas was too alluring for a young man. It would be a lie if Alex said the thought of hugging Ste hadn’t crossed his mind.


    Still, he kept himself in check. Alex knew what their current rtionship was, and he wouldn’t do any surprises to the sleepingdy.


    It was time to make little progress in their rtionship, though!


    He forced himself to look at Ste’s pretty face. As she slept soundlessly, she was adorable.


    Alex chuckled and whispered, “I am back. Would a prettydy wake up for me?”


    Ste’s eyshes fluttered, slowly revealing her golden eyes. Still half-asleep, Ste lifted her eyes and looked deeply at Alex.


    “Golem?” Ste asked immediately.


    “…I don’t have a golem for you.” Alex’s lips quivered before replying.


    To this response, Ste maintained her half-asleep expression. Nothing rippled in her beautiful irises, yet Alex felt a wave of disappointment going down him as if Ste somehow poured it down at him.


    He scratched his hair, “You knew from the beginning that the golem is impossible for me.”


    Although Ste didn’t belong to the smartest, she was still pretty knowledgeable.


    In fact, Ste’s forte was much different. She could read emotions well. That trait came from her winged race, and it had remarkably helped her maintain her current lifestyle.


    She saw through people’s emotions.


    “And you know…” Alex sighed, “I wouldn’t like golem around you. It would be much better for you to rely on Celia and Sara instead. That is only if you really need someone to motivate you.”


    Alex’s tone contained a few emotions. But even though he was also disappointed and a little irritated, Alex was also happy for some reason. Still, more than anything, Alex was relieved for her.


    Ste stared at him. Inwardly, she had been reading him ever since she woke up. That was unconscious action, something Ste always did without even trying.


    “Will you take care of me today?” Ste asked slowly.


    Alex replied with a smile, “I will. I’ve promised to take care of you, haven’t I? And you have already done a lot by yourself and with Celia. Take a seat… Since Sara is busy with Schnee and Celia is sleeping, I can only help you with everything alone.”


    In his voice, Ste noticed nervousness and embarrassment.


    Perhaps, those two emotions made her take a seat on the bed by herself. She sat down and faced Alex, who had brought a chair for himself.


    Facing her, Alex extended his hands and slowly unbuttoned Ste’s pajama. He did it slowly, for known reasons,nguorously revealing more of her ample chest.


    Ste stared into his eyes, then suddenly asked, “Is it not exhausting?”


    “Exhausting?” Alex stopped midway; his hands were frozen as Ste asked before he wholly took off her upper pajama.


    But since he immediately understood Ste’s words, he knew what he had to say. Although it seemed like Ste was selfish due to her forte, she knew how bothersome and annoying herziness was.


    In her prime days, many servants had hidden their negative emotions from her. One event had made all servants from her mother’s household frightened.


    They feared bing Ste’s servants.


    In short, Ste knew how exhausting it was to be with her.


    Nheless, as Alex became her husband, he was bound to be around her. On their first meeting, she saw through his heart, resulting in her simply throwing herself onto him.


    And as he continued to stay around them, Ste inferred that Alex was a guy she could entrust herself to.


    Nheless, there was a minor event in Alex’s absence in which Ste had remembered the negative emotions of her servants.


    Celia was the main culprit of that event. In one of her daily duties, Celia whispered to herself those words: ‘It’s so tough!’


    Tough was one of the new words Celia had learned from her mother. She didn’t have any wrong intent behind those words.


    But that made Ste remember about old days.


    Alex shrugged, “You are pretty demanding. I can’t lie about that, can I?” He continued taking off Ste’s pajama.


    Atst, that piece of cloth slid through Ste’s hands, leaving her body. As a result, Ste’s big chest jumped, drawing Alex’s eyes.


    He promptly retracted his eyes, “But I will be the same in the future. I will need you.”
