The Dark Ritual In The Pond

A week later, Medea's body is now fully recovered.

She sent the letter to the Holy Knight's Office in Southhaven City to inform them about the next ritual.

A few hours later, Crown Prince Sieg arrived at her house.

Meeting Medea reminds him of their first night, and he is now aroused by just looking at her graceful gesture.

Sieg is trying to suppress his thirst, or else he will pin Medea down on the floor and wreck her body again.

While Medea noticed his expression to be colder toward her today.

"He must still be angry with me" - Medea thought, as she misunderstood.

"Greetings Your Highness, we shall begin the purification ritual after sunset, in the garden, please come and meet me there" - Medea smiled a little, her smile almost driving Sieg crazy but he still held his ground.

"Alright" - Sieg, trying to act as if nothing happened.

In a small garden in the back of Medea's house, it has various kinds of herbs, trees, flowers, and a shallow magical pool with crystal clear water. there is a medium-sized hut with a large bed inside. Madea often enjoys her time here relaxing.

After sunset. Medea cleaned her body thoroughly by taking a bath and dressed up in her favorite, almost see-through, white, thin night dress. 

"It should be OK this time, right? He plundered everything from my treasure cave and claimed both of my mountains. He shouldn't be interested in me anymore?" - Medea thought, Sieg was surely to hate her and he would leave immediately after the ritual was done.

"Here we go again" - Udola commented, grabbing a popcorn bag.

Soon after, they met in front of the magical pool in the garden.

It was pretty dark with only a dim light from some lanterns the servants had prepared.

Medea starts chanting a spell, and every time she is chanting her spell, Sieg is becoming more and more flustered by her sweet, angelic voice. The spell has been activated, and her magic flows into the pool and lit up the water. The magical fireflies are glimmering. The stars in the night sky are now sparkling.

It was a very beautiful scene in the night garden, with Medea standing in the pool,

Her appearance is now becoming even more beautiful from these magical lights.

Sieg was stunned by her otherworldly beauty, also getting more aroused by her wet nightdress. 

The warmth of her aura is negating the effect of pain from the curse. He felt very warm, and comforting and became lost in thought.

"Your Highness? Are you OK?" - Medea, approaching Sieg, after calling him many times but he didn't answer.

"Uh- I'm fine" - Sieg came back to his senses.

"Are you feeling unwell, your highness? Should we stop the ritual?" - Medea, looking at Sieg with worried eyes, her sweet, sincere, and caring gesture is now a great challenge for, even a man with an iron will, Sieg, his resolve is now wavering. Medea is the type of lady that is desired by many men, but she is a witch, and he can't trust her, not yet.

"I'm OK, please carry on." - Sieg

"Very well" - Medea.

"The next part requires your highness's cooperation" - Medea.

"I'm listening" - Sieg.

"You have to take off all your clothes and spend some time with me in the pool, pretending you really love me until the ritual is over" - Medea, a little embarrassed.

"What!?" - Sieg

"I know Your Highness despises me" - Medea, her eyes seeming a bit sad. Even though Sieg already plundered everything from her cave last time, his love was not real, It can never be real. Sieg won't remember anything he has done after the curse was completely lifted anyway.

"It's... It's!!" - Sieg is about to say he doesn't despise her but has to stop because of hesitation. It's still too soon to let his guard down, or else she will surely betray him and take away his power.

"Please, just pretend it for a short while, the ritual will be completed shortly after" - Medea.

Sieg accepted. He takes all his clothes off and sits in the pool, while Medea is shyly looking the other way. The magic-infused water in the pool feels warm and comfortable. 

But what happens next is not what he was prepared for...

Medea is now naked, blushing, her left arm is covering both of her mountain peaks and her right palm is covering her precious treasure cave entrance.

However, because her mountains are too big, her slender arm could only cover a small area of them.

"Your Highness, Please don't stare too much, I'm a little bit shy" - Medea, blushing.

Sieg almost loses his mind after seeing her almost naked, beautiful body.

Medea slowly walks into the pool and sits on Sieg's lap, facing him.

Since this is a very dangerous stance for her cave and his sleeping dragon to be so close.

Medea cast the contraception spell on herself beforehand.

Medea applies a magic aroma soap on both of their skin and begins "The Purification Rubbing".

She softly rubs her body against his, in various directions. 

Sieg is now in a critical situation. As the rubbings commence. He felt her wet, smooth-as-a-silk skin rubbing all over his body. Her breathing on his skin also intensifies as she goes, it seems Medea is feeling good too. 

Sieg, now his confidence is wavering, Medea's charm is too powerful and he starts losing control.

Her beautiful, perfectly shaped treasure cave gate is just above his sleeping dragon, unguarded, and his dragon now starts reacting. His dragon is now looking at her gate and starts awakening.

The soap rubbing is done, and Medea gently washed the remaining soap from his skin and her skin.

"I will proceed with the last phase now, Your Highness, please relax" - Medea, blushing but still holding on.

Medea has to focus on the ritual and leave Sieg to fight his own battle against himself.

She starts focusing her mana and kissing Sieg's body, in various spots.

Sieg is succumbing to his thirst, A sweet, kind, caring lady in front of him, who is as beautiful as a goddess, naked, rubbing her smooth skin on his body. Each kiss from her mana-infused lips shook him to his core.

Sieg starting to doubt, What if this is all a ruse and Medea will just attack him while he was unaware?

His doubt caused the disruption of the ritual.

"Your Highness, the ritual is failing! please, assist me, just a little more!" - Medea.

He stopped his reasoning for a moment, having no choice, gently pulled Medea's face close to his, and kissed her.

"Ommph !?" - Medea, a little surprised, She did ask Sieg to pretend to love her but this was a little more than her expectation, a very passionate and gentle kiss on her lips.

It works, Their feeling and mana flow synchronized, and it seems the disruption of the flow is gone, Medea focused her magic on his body, and another part of the curse is now gone. However, the kissing continues and it's starting to feel good.

A short moment later, "Hah... " Medea finally pulls off her lips in order to speak.

"Hah... Hah" - Medea, blushing, catching her breath then speaks. His kiss feels so good that she is almost unable to free herself from it.

"T...The ritual is complete, Your Highness, another part of the curse is gone", - Medea, panting and blushing.

Medea felt something hard and gigantic, touching her cave from below.

"Ei!!" - Medea twitched, It looked like the dragon had graced her cave, like a greeting.

"It can't be! I'm sure he will shove me away after I'm done but now his dangerous giant dragon is waking up, Perhaps it's the curse side effect, I must distance myself from him before things go unprofessional again" - Medea thought while blushing.

Sieg still closed his eyes and stayed silent, maybe the curse didn't affect him this time?

"P...Pardon me, I should leave and get some rest now", - Medea, standing up, slowly walking out of the pool, and heading into the hut to fetch her clothes.

Medea did her best not to give in to her desire and jumped onto his lap because Sieg's kiss was so good.

"It's a fake love, It's a fake love you fool, don't get your hope up" - Medea thought to herself.

She thought Sieg should be leaving the area shortly...
