(Samuel's POV)
What the fuck was I doing?
There is an entire Curse Mark mystery that I have to solve and I'm over here doing this?
What the fuck was my problem?
I stood at the black building that the woman told me about. I saw the small white owl on the bottom of the door, so I knew that this was the same building that she told me about.
I have had sex with so many cheating women to know that this woman was doing this out of pure habit. She probably walked around the city to find a capable young man she could lay with, this mature piece of ass.
She seemed to be in her early 40s, the way she looked, but I knew that she was quite the beauty, no matter how old she was. She seemed to belong to the Goldwing Family, which was a Noble Family that was based here in Nourenth. Who was she specifically? The Head's wife? A sister? An aunt?
I don't know much about Nourenth's families, aside from the Blood-Briars and the Lothrands, but that's just bare minimum information. I don't know much about the real big ones.
Whatever the case is, she was asking me here.
I sighed, "Oh boy." I said, knocking on the door, "Here we go."
I don't know if it was just my pure lust that was making the decisions for me, but I didn't feel like I was making a mistake here. What was it about this woman's request that compelled me to walk over here and ignore the bigger questions I had about what was going on?
I had no fucking idea.
But here I am.
A few seconds later, the door opened and I saw the woman standing there. She still wore the dress, but her coat was off; making it better for me to see her upper body. I was right to assume that she had large breasts, because those things were wrapped tightly by her noble dress.
"Hm." She said, "Early. I like that. Come in."
"Alright." I said
She stepped to the side and gestured for me to come inside. I walked inside and took my hat off, looking around the small building. It was neatly organized with a few shelves and furniture. Nothing about it screamed Nobility, so that tells me this was some sort of safehouse or whatnot, meant for the members of the Goldwings to swing by safely here.
In this case, she was probably using for cheating sex.
I saw a door at the end of the room, which I would take a guess and say that it led to the bedroom where the magic will happen.
"So...." I said, "What did you need me for?"
"Are you some kind of fool, Samuel?" She asked, raising her eyebrow, "You accepted the request of a stranger to come meet her here, what do you think is going to happen?"
"Hm, maybe this is a trap." I said, "You don't mind confirming?"
She tilted her head, "Oh, please do."
"Te Ipsum Revela"
After uttering those words, I saw nor felt any reaction from anything. So this means that this woman wasn't a Lecher who was luring in victims for her to devour, posing a Goldwing noble. It was a thought that came up almost right away when I was walking over here. Maybe it was the reason I wanted to come, to be with her alone in case it was a trap.
That way, I can just shoot her dead if she was a monster.
Doing everyone a service, if that's the case.
But it's not.
So she just wants to fuck.
"Hm." She smirked slightly, "The Revealing Chant. You're a Hunter, aren't you? And let me guess, you're Samuel Greyclaw, son of John Greyclaw."
I raised an eyebrow. "Hm....." I said, "You're smarter than you look."
She smiled, "That makes this easier, I suppose." She said, slowly unbuttoning her dress, "Head to the bedroom, I don't have much time. Two hours tops, lets get this started."
I glanced at the door and then back at her, "Just straight to it, huh?" I said, "You know of me?"
"Of course I know Samuel Greyclaw's name." She said, "My name is Melyssa Goldwing. Your father once saved my life. I'm talking about a decade or so ago, when you were probably a child."
"And you're going to have sex with me as thanks or something?" I asked
"Don't be a fool." She said with a chuckle, "I'm merely doing this to release stress, that's all. It just happened to be a coincidence that it was you. Room. Now."
I walked over to the bedroom, opening the door and walking inside. It was a bit smaller than the previous room and it had a simple bed leaning against the wall, centered nicely.
She walked inside, closing the door inside, "What brings you to Nourenth?"
"A job." I said, looking at her
She gestured at the bed, "Go on, I'm not going to bite." She said with a blush, "Unless you want me to."
I took off my coat and set it on the small table on the side, my hat on top of it. I then walked over to the bed and sat down, looking at her.
She walked over to me and reached for my cheek, "You're a handsome one, aren't you?" She said, "Your Father spoke of you when he saved my life, said how you were a mix of him and your mother."
I didn't say anything, merely studied her face and wondered how I was able to get to this situation. Was there a reason that I followed her here? Is there something else at play here? I mean, this was all too coincidental. There is no way that I bumped into her by pure chance and then she is asking to have sex with me.
No.
Something else is up.
She must have known I was a Hunter. She probably spotted me from a far while I was looking at the drawing of the Curse Mark. She probably timed her walk so she can bump into me and lure me here for something.
I sense no malice, so what was her motive?
I guess there's no other choice but to go along with the flow.
I fuck her and interrogate her in the process.
Yes.
I should do that.
I looked at her, "Melyssa Goldwing." I said, "You said that's your name?"
She nodded, blushing, "Yes."
I reached for her waist, "Now that we are here...." I said, "There's no going back."
She shook her head, "Of course not."
"Then, what happens...." I said as I lifted her up, having her straddle me, "You will have no regrets about it."
"So just relax and enjoy what comes."
