Humming to myself, I read over a few more letters before letting out a laugh as a thought crossed my mind, causing Christina to stare at with a raised brow as she waited for so kind of explanation.
I had shattered the quiet in the office and had done so in a rather odd way, but I couldn't help myself as I grinned at the Queen Bee and said "I just realized I'm not that horny now~! A few weeks ago uttering such a statent would be enough to make blush crazily, but now~?"
Her brow arched higher as she remained quiet, letting ramble on a little more as I sat a letter down and sank into the comfortable chair, relishing the feeling of being back in my office and taking it all in.
"I used to be so drowned in work that I never had ti to pursue carnal pleasure. Now I've drowned in it for a few days - literally, the amount of ti I've spent having sex since eting Astra is now a few days out of two, three weeks I've known her - so my perception of myself is so damn different...
And then now that I am back at work, back doing the things I've done for so long now... the arousal that's been so debilitating these last few days is just... gone. The old routine is overwhelming the new one. Even with you here I just... don't feel that needy."
Christina stared at for another few seconds before saying "Thanks, I guess.", making laugh again as I looked the Queen Bee up and down, adding "Not that I don't appreciate the eye candy, Christina... You are one sexy Secretary, you know that~? And just because I don't feel an overwhelming amount of arousal..."
Trailing off and leaving it at that, I winked at her before picking up the letter and returning to my work, leaving Christina to stare at so more before she too did the sa, sorting everything out and sliding the finished letters into envelopes that I needed to have delivered.
For an hour or so we were working in silence, each complaint, request and disguised plea for either money or support getting combed over by and responded to appropriately, and it was towards the end of that hour that I ca across a letter from soone who did make my squirm a little in anticipation.
Seeing Leonisa's seal was enough to remind of the Lionkin's powerful hips and rather perfect dick, the mories of riding her in her office or being bent over her desk making rather wet and needy even after what I had just told Christina.
I wasn't 'free' from desires like I once was, but it was certainly more manageable and definitely sothing I could live with as I pushed the mories to the side and opened the letter, unsure of what I would find.
Would it be a completely official request, sothing more personal that would further remind of everything, or was it sothing in the middle of those two things?
It beca apparent it was in the middle the mont I got past the first paragraph, the ntioning of a 'special Deerkin' that she needed to inform of an 'important task' making it clear that this was about Rhefia and her path to retribution.
Sprinkled in were reminders of us needing to et more frequently to discuss 'various things of importance' and how she very much anticipated my return to her office, those parts making my heart flutter a little as the unique style of writing that she used toed the line between professional and personal.
It read very much like a letter from one Noble to another, but at the sa ti it was very clear that between the lines she was reminiscing about our ti together and how much she yearned for ...
It was very sweet and I got to work drafting up the reply imdiately, making sure it was above adequate and promising her to return to her Manor soti in the near future... and also reminding her that my office was always open to her if she found need of .
On the other hand, the reminder of Rhefia and the mission she was going to have to undertake did sober up a little, especially since the words Leonisa used were not as reassuring as they should have been...
There was so kind of developnt in that portion of her letter that she wanted to discuss in person, and specifically I had to imagine that it was sothing that would increase the risk to Rhefia by a decent amount.
To balance that out there was going to be an increase to the rewards as well, be it from Leonisa or from the populace when they learned of her deeds; hells, there might even be so sort of special apology gift from the Queen if it was that troubleso.
But I wouldn't know until I got my other Duchess to join out in Astra's ho one of these days, nor would I be able to accurately predict what would happen upon Rhefia's return to the populace of Birchan.
So people might rember her, so of the military might celebrate her return, so of the Nobility might see sothing juicy to focus on or make use of... but so might not be so thrilled about the return of soone as talented as her.
Her accolades were numbered compared to her Dama, but the potential she had showed during her limited ti serving was rather high; way higher than most of the Generals and other specialized soldiers we currently had, so how her return would be taken was a mystery to .
I just hoped it wasn't sothing terrible since I had a feeling that anything bad done to Rhefia would just make it easy for Astra to decide to relocate everything and start sowhere fresh... and I don't know what I would do in that situation.
The heart and the brain were at war over that one, that was for sure, so I really didn't want to think about it as I just returned to the paperwork that had piled up during my break... and yet I couldn't stop myself from mulling it over occasionally, which soured my mood quite a bit.
