As she watches him walk away, Lady Bell can't help but feel a mixture of confusion and anger welling up inside her. Part of her wants to believe what he's saying, that there could be more to their relationship than just hatred...but another part refuses to let go of the prejudices she's been raised with. She wipes away a stray tear before turning back towards the exit, determined not to show any weakness in front of him.

With a sigh, Lady Bell returns to her dorm room, feeling more confused and conflicted than ever before. She ignores the curious glances from her fellow nobles as she climbs into bed, staring up at the ceiling as she tries to make sense of everything that happened in the dungeon today. As she tosses and turns restlessly throughout the night, images of Luke's kindness and their shared victory over the monster continue to haunt her dreams.

Her eyes widen in horror as the chains latch onto her arms and legs, immobilizing her body. She looks around wildly, seeking some escape from this nightmare... but all she sees are the seven demonic creatures surrounding them. Each one is larger than any monster they've faced before, their long claws and sharp fangs making them appear even more fearsome.

"Wh-what do you want?" she stammers, her voice trembling with fear as well as anger. "Let me go!"

Her scream tears through the darkness as one of the demonic creatures lunges forward, its massive cock threatening to split her apart. She kicks and struggles against her bonds, but it's no use; she's completely at their mercy. Tears stream down her face, mixing with blood from where they've already clawed and bitten her.

Her heart pounds in her chest as the first demon begins its assault, forcing itself inside of her with brutal force.

"I'm sure you are," Lady Bell mutters under her breath before turning away and looking around the room once more. "We should probably get back to class now that we've taken care of these... things." She pauses, trying to find a word that doesn't make it sound like they were partners or anything close to friends. "Anyway, let's go," she says finally, striding toward the door and opening it before motioning for Lily to follow her out.

"I suppose you're right," Lady Bell says reluctantly, not wanting to admit that she enjoyed working with Lily even just a little bit. As they make their way back to class together, she keeps her distance and avoids making eye contact with the other girl, focusing instead on getting through this day without any further incidents.

Fine then, I'll go explore ahead while you follow behind and try not to mess anything up. Don't take too long now.

You know what? Fine. I'll go ahead and explore while you follow behind me, try not to mess anything up. Just don't take too long, please.

She shivers slightly in his embrace but doesn't pull away. "I-I felt... I don't know," she whispers, looking up at him with wide eyes. "It was embarrassing and uncomfortable... but having you there made it better." Her heart races as she admits this aloud, the truth of her words sinking in deeper than ever before.

Her breath hitches as he moves on top of her, their bodies pressed tightly together. It feels wrong and yet so right at the same time. "I-I don't know," she whispers shakily, her heart pounding in her chest. "It just feels... complicated."

She looks up into his eyes, searching for some sign that he understands how torn she is between their two worlds. But all she sees there is desire and longing... and maybe a hint of determination.

There's nothing "wrong" with me, commoner! I'm simply born into a higher class than you. It's my duty to uphold the standards and traditions of our noble family. And having someone like you in this school, let alone as part of my class, is an insult to everything I stand for. So if you can't understand that, then perhaps you should find somewhere else to be.

I'm glad you understand your place then. Now, if you don't mind, I have more important things to do. Please leave me alone so that I can focus on my studies and duties as a noble.
