Date a Witch: Reborn as the Witch of Lust! (GL)-Chapter 52: Lila Kissed Me to Declare Me as Hers!

A silent chaos stirred in the classroom. Several students, already shocked by the inapproachable Rosana sitting beside Mel, stole curious glances while avoiding Lila’s ire beside her.

Mel tilted her head, observing. Despite Lila’s darkened gaze, the Witch of Lust remained perfectly relaxed.

Or rather, her eyes flickered with surprise. This Lila was far too innocently adorable compared to the Witch of Envy she remembered from the game

And so, by instinct, her hands stretched to squeeze Lila’s cheeks.

"Mmm...!" Lila grumbled under her touch, trying to shake Mel’s hand off. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Mel chuckled softly. "Jealous?"

An irritated scowl came to Lila’s expression. "It’s fine. I did promise not to bother you when... when it happens."

Yet Mel. Her one and only Mel. Just flirted. With someone other than her.

The Witch of Envy, unable to reconcile with her jealousy, merely pouted.

Feeling the softness of Lila’s puffed cheeks, an irresistible temptation sprang in Mel’s mind.

With a gentle firmness, she pressed against them, earning a grumpy ’pff’ that sounded like a deflating balloon.

Her lips quivered to hold back a laugh. "Heh...Lila, you’re a little too cute right now..."

"Stop it... mmm..."

Flushed, Lila leaned into Mel’s touch, as if seeking comfort despite her irritation.

[ Envy couldn’t help but melt into your pampers! ]

[ Envy favourability: 53 -> 57 ]

Ignoring her Lila’s protests, Mel further brushed up and down against her cheeks.

What surprised, and somewhat pleased her, was how Lila’s chest heaved and followed her movement. So obedient. So squishy. So adorable.

Mel could also feel her face turning pink before hearing an intrigued ’hum’ behind her.

Still gently toying with Lila’s face, she glanced over her shoulder and caught Rosana watching them with a smirk.

"You two sure got along." Rosana’s eyes squinted. "Friends? For how many years?"

Before Mel could answer, Lila let go of her grasp before settling her chin over Mel’s shoulder, glaring at Rosana like a threatened puppy.

"Childhood friend," Lila muttered. "For ten years. We’re really, really close."

The sudden weight in Lila’s tone almost made Mel burst out laughing. No. She had to stay sympathetic. At least try.

She let out a muffled chuckle, disguised as a sigh. "Yep. Childhood friend. Really, really close."

Rosana held her chin, examining Lila, who nuzzled close to Mel. And then at Mel’s playful glance.

The Heiress’s eyes smiled. "So. Just friends?"

A groan escaped Lila’s lips, barely holding back dark, possessive thoughts that swirled in her head.

Mel noticed and lifted Lila’s chin off her shoulder, meeting her frowning eyes with a calm tenderness.

Finding the right words, she whispered. "Should we tell herwe’re lovers instead, Lila?"

A hiccup escaped Lila’s lips before she hung her head within Mel’s grasp.

Somehow, it didn’t feel right for Lila to utter that they were ’lovers’. The name itself had a weight, a responsibility for her to protect Mel against others.

She knew, or at least believed that her strength didn’t yet deserve such a title. Not yet.

Unfortunately, Rosana didn’t have such an issue as she teased. "Do be more forward with your feelings. Aren’t you afraid someone will snatch her away?"

Her ’kind’ advice, however, was met with a sharp emerald glare from behind Mel’s shoulder. "Like you?"

Rosana’s grin widened. "Like me."

"Gr-" Lila gritted her teeth, the confidence exuded from the Dragoness irritating her to no end.

Then her eyes met Mel’s, playful yet tinged with concern, unlike her usual stubborn, petty glance.

She took a deep, deep breath, gazing into Mel’s eyes, which were on hers, instead of that woman behind her!

And with that, a single impulsive thought slipped into Lila’s mind.

Unaware, Mel softly smiled. "Something bothered you, my Lila-"

Her word was cut off, however, by a sudden kiss on her lips.

Mel blinked, processing Lila’s eagerly pushing against her. Then blinked more as Lila’s tongue slithered inside.

Despite the shock, Mel giggled and deepened the kiss, ignoring the muffled gasps around them.

And with a pop, she pulled back slightly, their warm breaths mingling as a thin string of saliva stretched between their lips.

The Witch of Lust licked her lips along with the string. "My. Oh. My."

She watched as Lila sat dazed and flushed, a deep redness spreading across her cheeks. Mel didn’t mind continuing the kiss for a moment, despite the curious, shocked gazes practically drilling into the couple.

Grinning, she held a v-sign and swept her golden eyes around the classroom. "Nothing to see here!"

The bubbly, cheerful voice echoed in the classroom before her classmates glanced away. Yep. Nothing to see here.

She glanced back at the podium. Even when half-asleep, Samantha’s brow twitched slightly at the unexpected disruption.

[ Gluttony sensed she would not have a peaceful retirement with you around! ]

[ Gluttony favourability: 1 -> 0.1 ]

Not falling into the negative? That’s our teacher right there!

Teasing inwardly, Mel patted Lila’s head gently. "I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks, my Lila."

Lila stiffened, emerald eyes trembling as the weight of what she’d done settled in.

Quickly, Lila folded her arms on the table and buried her face into them. No. She refused to dwell on it or regret it, even if it had been unintentional!

[ Envy was too flustered to muster up any retort! ]

[ Envy favourability: 57 -> 83 ]

Mel sighed in relief. Somehow, she was glad Lila’s inconfidence melted away as quickly as their kiss.

In fact, she would gladly, generously, even gratefully offer her lips again if it meant her lover felt comforted at every moment.

Of course, she promised there was no selfishness hidden beneath it all.

Ah. I almost forgot.

She quickly turned back to Rosana, who held a conflicted gaze.

The Witch of Lust chuckled. "How is it? Not forward enough?"

Mel contemplated. Typically, such a taunt would keep other rival-in-love away like a fly.

Yet, the Heiress’s lips curled to a crazed, maddened grin. Her eyes swirled with an impure compulsion, as if watching a prey snatched away before her eyes.

"Perhaps. I have underestimated her."

She cast a fierce glance over Mel. "But I know I can do better."

[ Greed viewed your words as a letter of challenge! ]

[ Greed Favourability: 20 -> 31 ]
