As Mel lay on the bed, entrapped by Maria from behind and Lila from the front, her lips hung in utter disbelief.
"Maria...? He-haha..."
Mel, with her eyes still palmed by Maria, muttered. "Please tell me you're joking..."
"No, not really?"
Maria chuckled in response; her other hand caressed Mel's ear while still locking her gaze with Lila's.
"Unfortunately, such a charade will risk being sensed easily by Envy's Enhanced senses, so naturally, I'll have to ask for permission."
That was a lie.
Lila concluded as her brows knitted together; the sharp glint of the Saintess's unmistakable.
"You think I'm dumb? You can slow time infinitely inside!"
Facing Lila's frustrated look, Maria only chuckled.
"So? Does that make me the villain for wishing to dote on Mel more?"
Maria's cheek slid over Mel's, gently as Mel purred and relaxed herself.
"And doesn't that make you more villainous one here? For a reward to separate us?"
"Stop twisting your logic here!"
