The Heart System-Chapter 503

I let out a low moan, my head falling back as I exploded deep inside her for the final time. The orgasm was something else, a series of electric pulses that felt like they were being milked out of my very soul. I poured into her, an endless flood of heat that filled her to the absolute limit, my body twitching and jerking with the force of the release.

We stayed like that for a long minute, frozen in that awkward, intense position, our hearts drumming a frantic, synchronized beat against each other. The room was silent again, the only sound the distant, muffled patter of the rain and the ticking of the clock on the nightstand.

Finally, the gravity of the situation crashed back down. I pulled out of her with a wet, heavy pop and stood up, my legs feeling like they were made of water. I grabbed a handful of tissues and started frantically wiping myself down, my eyes darting to the door.

"We have to go," I panted, my voice shaking. "Now. Delilah, get up."

"No, you have to go. I need to clean this place up..."

She slumped onto the mattress, looking like she’d just survived a car wreck. She let out a soft, breathless laugh, her eyes finally starting to clear.

"She’s going to wonder why you’re so sweaty, Evan," she whispered, her voice a ghost of itself.

"I’ll tell her the AC in the car broke," I muttered, frantically pulling my jeans on. "Just... fix the bed. I’m leaving."

"Go on, be quick!" She said, "God, we really made a mess..."

I didn’t wait for an answer. I grabbed my keys, checked the hallway, and practically bolted out of the apartment. I hit the stairs at a run, the cool air of the hallway hitting my face like a slap. By the time I reached my car, my heart was still hammering, but the plan was back in motion. I had Ivy to pick up, and a secret that felt like it was going to burn a hole right through my chest.

I hadn’t realized it at first, but holy shit, I was swimming in credits now. After the night with Delilah, I was practically rich.

Still... I needed to spend some of them to get rid of the Villain tag. Not now, though. At least the situation with K was handled for the time being. For now, I just bought ten "Good Boy" points, making sure I wouldn’t sink any deeper into Villain.

I rubbed my face and stared at myself in the mirror. The morning had started slow... painfully slow. We’d woken up around eleven since there was no work today. Well, there was work, tons of it, but we could handle it from home.

And the weather? Fucking hell.

Snow was pouring down like the sky had split open. If you looked outside, it felt like someone had draped a thick white blanket over the entire world. Everything was muted, buried, suffocated under it. At least it was supposed to pass in a few hours, if the forecasters weren’t full of shit.

We could only wait. Not like we had anything better to do.

Damn... if only this system had something to fix weather in the shop. I’d buy that shit instantly. No hesitation. I hated going out in this kind of cold.

"The breakfast is ready, Master," Minne’s voice came from the kitchen.

I splashed water on my face one last time and turned off the faucet. "Yeah. Coming."

Good. I was getting closer to leveling up.

With the Villain tag, I could gain insane amounts of EXP... but I’d also get punished like hell if I did anything good.

Balanced. In the worst way possible.

I stepped out of the bathroom and headed to the dining table.

Minne had kept it simple today—toast stacked neatly on a plate, scrambled eggs still steaming, a bowl of sliced cucumbers and tomatoes on the side, and a kettle of freshly brewed tea filling the air with a warm, comforting smell.

Nothing fancy. But it hit the spot.

Looking up, I noticed Minne standing by the table—her eyes slightly red, cheeks flushed pink.

Tessa, who had just pulled out a chair next to me, paused mid-motion. She frowned, then walked over to Minne and pressed a hand to her forehead.

"Damn, maid... you’re burning up."

"Y-yeah... sudden weather changes, Mrs. Tessa..." Minne mumbled.

She turned her head and sneezed into her arm.

Right on cue, Nala walked in holding a strip of ibuprofen. She popped one out and handed it to Minne, who nodded weakly in thanks before pouring herself a glass of water.

"She’s been up since like six this morning," Nala said. "I made her take a cold shower—she was way too hot."

Minne swallowed the tablet. "Ogh... thank you, Mrs. Nolin..."

"You should lie down," Jasmine said as she took a seat beside me. "Rest until you feel better. We can handle things here."

Kim walked out of the bathroom, drying her hands as she sat across from me. "Yummy."

"I think I’ll... lie down... Master?" Minne asked, her voice soft.

"Yeah, of course," I said. "You don’t need to ask me, honey."

"Thank you..."

"What happened to Minne?" Kim asked, stabbing a slice of cucumber with her fork.

"She’s sick," Nala replied. "You didn’t hear her in the shower this morning?"

"No... I didn’t. I’m sorry, Minne. Hope you get better soon."

"Thank... you..."

Jasmine and Nala gently guided Minne toward her room, one on each side.

I watched them go for a second... then got up and followed.

Inside the room, Jasmine helped Minne lie down, pulling the blanket over her. The moment she settled, Mik, the cat, brushed against my legs before jumping onto the bed. It circled once, then curled up right beside Minne, as if guarding her.

Minne gave a faint smile, her eyes already closing.

"Evan," Jasmine said softly, glancing at me. "Can you bring her some water?"

"Yeah."

I nodded and headed back to the kitchen, grabbing a glass and filling it up. The cold water sloshed slightly as I walked back, careful not to spill.

I placed it on the nightstand beside her.

"Thanks," Jasmine murmured.

I gave a small nod, then stepped out with her, quietly closing the door behind us.

Just as I was about to head back...

Buzz.

My phone vibrated in my pocket. I pulled it out, glancing at the screen. Charlotte. Right... I’d texted her yesterday. Told her I had some business to discuss. Guess she wasn’t wasting time.

"Excuse me," I muttered, stepping away.
