Extra chapter of the Month 3: Ilene falls in love with Kase from the beginning. Part 1

Rain pelted against the window, casting a melancholic ambiance in the dimly lit room. Ilene sat at a small table seating near the window, her gaze fixated on the droplets cascading down the glass. Her heart was heavy with remorse, burdened by the choices she had made. Clad in lustrous, black lace underwear that hugged her curves. Ilene couldn't help but feel conflicted by the stark contrast between her appearance and the turmoil within.

(When did it all start?) Ilene thought as she watched the rain.

(Just a year ago, my life was vastly different.)

(Thinking carefully, my peaceful life ended that day...) Ilene thought as she looked away from the window and looked at the door.

(The quiet life that I had built with my son Darx ended the day he arrived.)

Ilene kept looking at the door as if waiting for someone to arrive.

(Why did I...) Ilene thought, returning her gaze to the window.

There was a weight on Ilene's heart—a burden that eclipsed even the sorrow of her lost village. The memories of that fateful day still haunted her.

(It all started when Kase appeared.)

About a year ago, Ilene was home in a small village in the middle of the vast woods called [Merton] in the middle of nowhere. It all started like a typical day. Ilene went hunting in the forest while her son Darx and his friends went to train in the forest.

When Ilene returned home after spending the day hunting in the forest, it seemed strange to her that Darx wasn't home yet since he usually returns first; however, she didn't think much about it and began to prepare dinner for that day. Everything changed minutes later when she heard **** knocks on her door.

"ILENE! ILENE, ARE YOU INSIDE?"

Ilene rushed to open the door when she heard one of her neighbors call her name.

"What's happening?" Ilene asked, confused after opening the door.

"It's Darx!" Her neighbor said in an altered voice, "D-Darx and his friends were attacked by an ogre!"

Hearing those words, Ilene felt as if her heart had dropped into her stomach. Ilene ran towards the forest, praying to the goddess [Imris] for Darx to please be alright.

To Ilene's surprise, walking down the street that leads to her house was a blond boy whom she had never seen before, and in his arms was the **** body of Darx. Next to him was Amelia, who was crying inconsolably. Ilene thought the worst at that moment when she saw how hurt Darx was and saw Amelia cry like that.

"DARX!!" Ilene scream.

Ilene ran to grab Darx with tears in her eyes.

"He is alive but needs immediate attention." The blond boy told her.

Kase carried Darx to Darx's room, followed by Ilene and Amelia. Villagers offered Ilene the potions and anything useful they had to heal Darx. Amelia used what healing magic she could, and a villager with medical experience attended Darx. It was a long afternoon, but Darx's condition improved as the hours passed. Now all that was left was to wait.

After a while, Amelia told Ilene what had happened. Oliver was also injured, but his injuries were not so serious since his shield protected him; however, Darx received a direct hit from Ogre. Amelia told Ilene in detail everything that happened and how they would have died if it hadn't been for Kase saving them.

Ilene turned around to look for Kase to thank him, but he was no longer present.

(I'll thank him next time I see him) Ilene thought.

Ilene spent the night looking out for Darx, and the next day, she didn't go hunting in the forest, as usual, to stay with Darx. Around noon Ilene heard someone knock on the door, so she got up from the chair where she was drinking tea and went to see who it was. To her surprise, when she opened the door, it was Kase, the boy who saved her son.

"Hi!" Kase said with a smile.

"Ah, you're Kase aren't you" Ilene replied.

"Yeah, I just stopped by to see how Darx was doing. I heard from Amelia that his injuries were pretty serious."

"Darx still hasn't woken up, but his condition is improving. I'm sorry I couldn't thank you yesterday for what you did. I am very thankful!"

"I'm glad he's getting better. To tell the truth, I didn't expect that something like this would happen on my first day in this village."

"Oh, it's true, I hadn't seen you before. What brings you here? ....Oh wait, where are my manners... Would you like to come in? Although I only have tea to offer you at this moment."

"I'd love to!" Kase answered.

Ilene was grateful for Kase's heroic act in saving the life of her son Darx. She invited him to her home as a token of gratitude and to get to know him better. They were both sitting at a table, enjoying a cup of tea on a quiet afternoon.

Kase, I can't thank you enough for saving Darx. I am forever grateful for your brave action." Ilene said.

"You don't have to thank me. I did what anyone would do in that situation."

"Believe me; not everyone would fight an Ogre to save strangers. Amelia told me a little about what happened. Are you an adventurer?" Ilene asked him while drinking from her tea.

"Not yet, but I just turned the age to take the ritual. The reason why I'm here is to visit my father before taking the ritual since I won't be busy with the adventurer's life afterward."

Ilene was even more amazed that Kase wasn't an adventurer. Even an E or D Rank adventurer would have a lot of trouble fending off an Ogre, but he did it without even being an adventurer.

(If he barely reached the age to take the ritual, it means that Kase must be almost the same age as Darx. Kase must be a prodigy if he managed to scare off an Ogre even without being an adventurer. Incredible!)

Ilene was genuinely interested in learning more about Kase, taking the opportunity to deepen the conversation.

"What led you to become an adventurer, Kase? There must be something more behind your bravery."

With a charming smile, Kase began to speak, "As you already know, I am the son of Mr.Enzo. In reality, I am a bastard, so as you may know, someone like me is not very well received in the noble society. So being strong was essential for my survival And what better than being an adventurer for someone who has lived his whole life training."

"Ah, I understand. I didn't mean to be nosy. I'm sorry if my question made you uncomfortable." Ilene said

"Nothing like that! In fact, I'm having a good time chatting with a woman as beautiful as you."

Ilene's heart jumped at being called beautiful by Kase, but she took it as a simple casual praise common to nobles.

(Ilene is really beautiful!) Kase was thinking (Her tits are pretty big too. I want to find a way to fuck her before leaving this horrible village. I got off to a good start saving her idiot son. Now I need to keep visiting her for her to open her legs for me.)

Ilene and Kase continued talking about random things for a long while. Ilene nodded, interested in every word Kase spoke, and Kase took every opportunity he found to compliment Ilene. After several cups of tea, Kase left, more captivated by Ilene's beauty and serenity.

Ilene went to Darx's room and sat beside him, still thinking about Kase.

(It's been a long time since I spoke like that and for a long time with a man. Kase is quite charming. Surely he will have several beautiful suitors.)

The next day Ilene felt more worried because Darx hadn't woken up yet, but a sudden visit from Kase distracted her from her worries. Once again, they sat in front of the dining room table, drinking tea while talking.

"What brings you here, kase?" Ilene asked curiously.

"I wanted to see you! If you don't mind, I'd like to visit you occasionally." Kase reply.

"Of course, it doesn't bother me, but you're young. You should be out there doing something more interesting than talking to an older woman while drinking tea."

"None of that! What I've been enjoying the most since arriving in this village is talking with you. I'll also start training with Jax's group starting tomorrow, so that fulfills my required physical activities for the day. I'd like to spend my spare time with you." Kase said serenely with a slight smile as he looked into Ilene's eyes.

Ilene was surprised by Kase's response, feeling a mixture of flattery and caution.

(What's behind those words?) Ilene thought, (Is Kase trying to seduce me, or is it my imagination?)

As the afternoon wore on, Ilene and Kase became more and more immersed in the conversation, sharing their experiences and telling anecdotes.

(Ilene is an exceptional woman.) Kase thought, (I must be patient, earn her trust, and let something deeper blossom between us. If I want to fuck her, I must wait.)

The night was almost here, and it was time for Kase to go. As they said goodbye, With a courteous bow, Kase took Ilene's hand and kissed it, which is a common gesture among nobles, but Ilene blushed, not expecting that.

Ilene, still blushing, returned to Darx's side.

(Kase is a charming and charismatic man. Was Kase really trying to seduce me? It's the feeling I get with every conversation we have. Could it be that he likes older women? W-What am I thinking... These thoughts are dangerous and confusing.)

The next day Ilene went to buy vegetables, and there she encountered Alice—her closest friend.

They started talking about Darx and the concern of the village people regarding the Ogre, but soon the conversation turned to talk about Kase.

"Hey, is there something between you and Kase?" Alice asked, "I see he's been visiting you."

"How do you know those things? Aren't you busy with your husband and daughter?" Ilene answered.

"You already know how I am!" Alice said with a big smile, "But don't change the subject. Tell me, is there something going on between you two?"

"Of course not. What could there be?"

"Well, a young man alone in the house of a beautiful woman with a sexy body. It doesn't take a genius to think about what could happen."

"I'm sorry to ruin your fantasies, but there is nothing between the two of us. Also, how can you suggest that there is something when Kase is almost the same age as Darx? It would be indecent." Ilene said.

"Why indecent? You two are single! If I were single, I would not hesitate to seduce the young prince and take him to my bed." Alice said, ending with an outrageous laugh.

"Keep your voice down!" Ilene told Alice, "I know you don't care, but there's no way I could do something like that."

"So you don't like Kase? I find him quite attractive. And in this village where there are no good-looking men, seeing someone like Kase is like a breath of fresh air."

In the time that Ilene has been a widow, she has been courted by many men, but none of them were of interest to her. It is not a lie that in this village so far from the capital, most of the men are quite old or married.

(Kase is so different from the type of man I usually like: a little older than me, tall, muscular, and masculine, with a beard. But he... he has this handsome face, an air of nobility about him. He is young and has a captivating smile. I admit I am attracted to him in a way that I cannot explain.) Ilene thought.

"Hey, I'm not telling you to date him, but wouldn't you like to have a little excitement in your life? You've been without a man for too long, and I know your body must be craving a man's touch. Why don't you take advantage of going out with Kase? You can have a fleeting romance before he leaves the village. Remember that it will be difficult for another man of his qualities to come to this village. You're still young; enjoy life a bit!" Alice said.

Ilene returned home thinking deeply about Alice's words. Ilene knew that letting Kase into her life would be wrong and could bring her a lot of trouble, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel excited.

(It's absurd. Kase is way younger than me, the same age as my own son. This is completely inappropriate. I should ignore these feelings and focus on what really matters: Darx.

Despite her regrets, Ilene wanted to see Kase again, even though she knew he was dangerous and could unleash a storm of unpredictable consequences.

That same day in the afternoon, there was a knock on her door. Ilene's heart was beating fast as she went to open the door.

"Hi!" Kase said with her seductive smile.

"H-Hey...!" Ilene replied, feeling a little embarrassed.

Ilene let him pass, and they started talking the same way as always, drinking tea at the table.

This time Ilene paid more attention to Kaze's behavior and noticed that Kase was constantly looking at her breasts. Also, when she got up to serve more tea, Kase did not take his eyes off her ass. Ilene pretended at all times not to notice how Kase saw her. Ilene was also, at times, captivated by Kase's attractive face.

This time when it was time to say goodbye, Kase didn't kiss her hand but instead approached her and kissed her on the cheek. After dismissing Kase, Ilene sat down beside Darx with a red face.

(Why do I feel so anxious to meet him again? This is not OK. Darx would never accept someone like Kase as my lover. I can't let these forbidden feelings take control. I must be strong and resist this temptation.)

The next day Ilene greeted Kase differently. She wears tighter clothing and unbuttons her blouse to purposely show more cleavage, as well as raises up her tight skirt to show more leg. Ilene knew she was playing with fire, but the excitement got the better of her.

As soon as Kase saw Ilene, he praised her for how beautiful she looked today. Ilene felt a tingle inside her as she heard Kase's words and felt how his gaze traveled over every curve of her body.

As Kase and Ilene sat at the small table, the fragrant aroma of tea filling the air, an undercurrent of tension crackled between them. Kase no longer disguised how he saw Ilene's body. Ilene pretended not to notice, but it was apparent.

Suddenly Kase changed the conversation, "Ilene," Kase spoke, his voice velvety and low, "I can no longer deny the feelings that have consumed me. From the moment we met, I was captivated by you. I like you!"

Ilene's heart skipped a beat, her mind whirling with conflicting emotions. She had tried to ignore her growing affection for Kase, knowing the consequences it would bring.

"Ah? Don't be stupid." Ilene said, trying to look disinterested.

Kase's eyes softened, his voice filled with sincerity and determination, "I'm being serious. I would like you to accept my feelings for you." Kase answered as she stood up and walked over to where Ilene was.

Ilene also stood up in front of Kase. Ilene's mind raced, torn between her love for Kase and the deep sense of remorse that welled up within her. She knew that accepting his affections would irreversibly change the delicate balance of her life.

"Stop playing around and go now! Ilene replied, "Kase, I am very grateful to you for what you did but-"

Before Ilene finished what she was saying, Kase got closer to her and kissed her full on the lips. Ilene could have prevented it, but she didn't expect Kase to do something like that at that moment and was stunned.

It was a quick kiss. As soon as their lips parted, Kase apologized,

"I'm sorry, Ilene, my body moved on its own. I... I'll be gone for today, but please think about what I told you. I just want you to know that even if you reject me, I won't. I'll not give up until you accept me."

After saying those words, Kase left, leaving Ilene even more confused.

"Miserable..."

That same afternoon Darx woke up. Ilene was happy to see her son wake up, but a part of her was still thinking about Kase. Ilene never told Darx about those days she spent with Kase.

The next few days, Kase did not go to see her. The fact that Kase was so attentive to her and declared his love to her in the past few days to now having zero contact confused Ilene a lot and made her think more about Kase.

Ilene tried to live her life normally. Ilene took care of Darx while he fully recovered, and days later, she went with Darx to explore the forest in search of more Ogres at the request of Mr.Enzo. Upon returning, she met Jax, who offered her the job of training Kase. When Ilene asked Darx's opinion, he told her that she could do it if the pay was good.

Later that day, Ilene talked with Mr.Enzo about the job of training Kase, and Mr.Enzo told her that it was Kase's idea. Ilene's heart began to beat fast, knowing it was Kase's idea. She knew spending time alone with Kase was a bad idea, but she accepted the job with a thrill of uncertainty she hadn't felt in a long time.

The following morning Kase went to see her, and they saw each other again after several days.

"Did you think about what I told you? Would you be my girlfriend?" Kase said as they stood facing each other in the dining room of Ilene's house.

"I-It is not possible... Darx would not accept that I..." Ilene said nervously.

"What matters to me is what you think. If you want, we can keep our love a secret, hidden from Darx's eyes. We can find happiness together without disrupting his life." Kase replied, holding Ilene's hands.

"I am drawn to you, Kase," Ilene admitted, her voice quivering, "but I fear the consequences. Darx is my priority, and I can't bear the thought of hurting him."

"I told you. We can keep the secret." After saying that, Kase once again brought his lips closer to Ilene's.

Ilene knew that Darx would soon wake up and come for breakfast. While Kase brought her lips closer to her, Ilene saw the corridor where Darx would come from, and when she didn't hear any noise from the hallway, Ilene fell into temptation and didn't move, accepting the kiss. They both closed their eyes, this time kissing longer and more passionately.

"Mwnnh... Nmnnhw..."

"Ka... guh, Mwnnh... Nmnnhw..."

Ilene and Kase let themselves go and kissed for a few seconds until they heard footsteps approaching. They parted their lips, and Ilene nervously sat down at the table. Kase doing the same.

"Good morning!" Darx said after finishing a yawn.

Darx was surprised to see Kase at the table. Darx wasn't too happy to see Kase at his house, but he remembered that Ilene would train Kase from now on, so there was ****.

Ilene and Kase started talking about their training and plans from now on, while Darx just listened without much interest. Little did Darx know that Kase was shooting flirtatious glances at Ilene as they ate, and Ilene tried to ignore them for fear that Darx would notice.

"Ilene, this breakfast you made is delicious. You have a special talent for everything you do, even making me want more every day." Kase said with a smile.

Ilene was struggling to maintain her composure and respond appropriately. However, a playful smile played on her lips occasionally, "T-Thanks, but it is nothing special." Ilene reply.

(I have to be careful. I can't let Darx suspect what's happening with Kase and me. This is getting more and more complicated and dangerous.) Ilene thought.

Ilene stood up to serve more food, and Kase didn't hide his perverted gaze looking at Ilene's ass while she was serving the food making Darx angry.

Darx, with an angry expression, slammed his fist on the table, drawing Kase's attention, "Hey, Kase, it's getting late. Don't you think it's better if you go now!?"

Kase turned to Darx, disinterested, "You're right.... Ilene, why don't we go train now."

(It must suck to be you, Darx) Kase thought, (Not only Amelia, your childhood friend but also your mother is now my woman, hahaha! You won't be so arrogant when you see me fucking both of them)

That was also the moment when Ilene realized how much Darx and Kase disliked each other.

Kase and Ilene left the house together as Darx looked irritated to see them leave. Darx was beginning to realize Kase's true nature, but he was still confident that his mother would never fall for Kase's games and would put him in his place if he tried anything; still, Darx felt uncomfortable in Kase's presence. He didn't like seeing his mother and Kase together all the time, and he also wasn't happy with the idea that Ilene was paying more attention to Kase than him.

Their first day of training went well. Both Kase and Ilene put everything aside and had satisfying training. That only surprised Ilene more to see that Kase was able to act professionally when necessary, and she was even more amazed by the tremendous natural talent he has.

But everything changed when the training was over, and they were ready to return to the village.

Kase got closer to Ilene, "Ilene, now that you are my girlfriend, come here for a moment," Kase said mischievously, grabbing her by the waist.

"What? I never said- I will be your gir-"

Kase kissed her, cutting off the rest of what she wanted to say.

"W-What are you doi-?" Ilene said, pretending to try to get Kase away from her.

Ilene is a B-Rank adventurer. If she really wanted to, she could push Kase away from her with ease, but despite her remorse and inner voice telling her to stop this, Ilene was carried away by the excitement of the situation and let Kase kiss her as he pleased. The kiss became more intense. Kase stuck his tongue in Ilene's mouth, and they started having a kinky kiss—something Ilene hadn't done for a long time. As their lips locked in a passionate embrace, a torrent of conflicting thoughts swirled through Ilene's mind. The intensity of the kiss ignited a fire within her that threatened to consume every ounce of reason and remorse she held.

Kase then was more bold and grabbed one of Ilene's breasts with his hand causing her to get scared and move away from him.

Breaking free from the kiss, Ilene's breath came in ragged gasps as she searched Kase's eyes, "What do you think you're doing?" Ilene said with an irritated expression, but her face was red, which made her less intimidating.

"I'm sorry! I didn't want to push myself, but I figured now that you're my girlfriend, it would be okay if I did." Kase replied with puppy ​​eyes.

"What are you talking about? I never agreed to be your girlfriend."

"Are you still with that even though we tongue kissed?" Kase said, "You don't have to pretend with me. Accept that you are already my girlfriend."

Ilene voice trembled with a mix of vulnerability and determination. "K-Kase," she murmured, her words barely audible, "I-I will be your girlfriend. But on one condition—we must keep all this hidden from Darx."

"Of course!" Kase replied with a satisfied smile, "I already told you I'm okay with that."

Ilene's heart swelled with a mix of relief and trepidation as she realized the gravity of her decision. As their lips met once more in a fervent kiss, Kase wasted no time and started kissing her in the same perverted way as before, sticking his tongue in her mouth and sharing saliva. Kase grabbed Ilene's chest again, and although she templed at first this time, she didn't move away from Kase, letting him touch her breasts as he pleased.

(Ilene's tits are perfect. They are a good size, soft yet firm at the same time. I want her to give me a tit job soon. I can feel the soft flesh of her hard nipple moving with every movement of my hand. I can't wait for her to let me fuck her soon.)

Kase fondled Ilene's breasts at his pleasure for a long while as they kissed like a couple in love. That night, Ilene found it hard to look Darx in the eye, feeling guilty, but she couldn't help but think of Kase and the perverted moment they shared.

In the morning, Kase was once again at the table to have breakfast with them, but there was a change. When Ilene and Darx have visitors, Darx usually sits next to his mother, but this time Ilene and Kase are sitting together, which Darx thought was weird.

"Hey, Kase, that's my place," Darx said with an annoyed tone.

Kase just looked at him for a second and ignored Darx, which made Darx even angrier.

"Hey! I am talking to yo-"

"Stop that and just sit down, Darx. Don't be a brat and get into trouble over something as silly as a seat." Ilene said, annoyed.

Darx was surprised to hear his mother take Kase's side. And even more, yelling at him like that in front of Kase.

Darx sat across from Ilene, frowning, crossing his arms in disapproval. Ilene, concerned about the growing animosity between Kase and Darx, tries to keep the conversation on a friendlier note. However, the tension between Ilene and Kase was more intense, making Darx feel more and more displaced and annoyed.

As they ate, Ilene suddenly felt Kase's hand on her thigh. Ilene was wearing a knee-length skirt. Kase reached under her skirt and began to caress her thigh. Ilene looked surprised for a second which Darx noticed.

"Mom? Everything alright?"

"Ah, Y-Yes...."

Kase was acting normal, but a slight smile appeared on his face. Meanwhile, Ilene kept talking with Darx and Kase, trying to seem normal when in reality, her mind was excited, feeling how Kase touched her in that situation.

(I feel like I won't be able to stop myself if Kase wants more from me. I made a mistake that I'm enjoying, and I don't know what will happen from now on.) Ilene thought.
