When The Silver Bell Of Charlotte's Pharmacy Rings (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 149
Charlotte shot him a sidelong glance and made as if to pull away from his arms, but Matiel showed no intention of letting her go. He yanked her shoulder closer, pressing their bodies tightly together until he finally brought his lips to her long neck. The breath against her skin was scorching hot, and the memory of the wound that had driven Count Holen to his death sent a chill racing up her spine.
“I wonder when you’ll finally be honest with me?”

Charlotte realized his large hand had returned to caress her waist, but this time she let it be. After undoing the clasps of her leather corset and gently tracing delicate patterns over her thin shirt as if playing an instrument, Matiel whispered against the lobe of her ear,
