She stared at the other girl as she began finding a place for her things.
“…”
Ange knew Mutsuki would never reject her if she confessed to him, but she had enough tact to not just tell her that.
And as she thought about it…
“…”
She was even more puzzled by the feeling she briefly felt in her heart.
Imagining Machina confessing and Mutsuki accepting brought an uneasy feeling to her.
For a little bit now, she had felt this indescribable emotion whenever she thought about Mutsuki, herself, and his relationship with anyone else. But…
“…?”
She did not know why she felt it.
She did recall sensing something like an answer when she had her heart taken by that young man during their fight, though.
“Whoa, hey, Lucia-kun.”
“Eh heh heh. I’m here to play. Are you done eating? If so, we can continue where we left off earlier if you catch my drift.”
Ange was lost in thought on that uneasy feeling, but she was interrupted by voices from the kitchen.
“What do you think you’re doing!?”
As usual, Lucia had appeared from nowhere and was clinging to Mutsuki.
“How did you get in here!? No, that doesn’t matter. Just get out! You’re nothing but a nuisance!”
“Oh, c’mon. I’m visiting Mutsuki-kun, not you, so stop interfering.”
“I’ll fry you up!”
“Oh? Are you sure you should be doing that? Will Ibekusa approve?”
“Gh.”
She looked over to see Machina had come running over.
Burning a demon would be easy enough, but this specific demon was made from the previous Eve’s body and FeTUS was working to protect him. Attacking him would make an enemy of the humans.
The humans wanted Lucia to continue visiting Mutsuki because it allowed Machina to observe Mutsuki and Eve simultaneously.
That prevented Ange from interfering.
The delicate three-way balance between the angels, demons, and humans remained.
“You should really move out of this noisy apartment, Mutsuki-kun. FeTUS says they’ll give us a place, so let’s move elsewhere. Okay?”
“N-now, now.”
Mutsuki could not support any one side either, so he only ever gave vague answers.
Ange walked away because staying here would only piss her off more and Machina stopped observing them as well.
Lucia happily pressed up against Mutsuki.
“Um.”
Mutsuki, on the other hand, did not look delighted.
“Hm? What’s wrong, Mutsuki-kun?”
“Well, um, uh.”
The body pressed up against him now had brown skin and feminine curves.
Lucia was being especially aggressive with the chest. Unable to relax, Mutsuki rubbed his head and…
“Um, I get that you’re also Lucya-san, but to me you’ll always be Lucia-kun.”
“?”
“I guess what I’m saying is that Lucia-kun and Lucya-san are two different people, so, um.”
He had not said this earlier since FeTUS had needed their data, but he felt like he had to say it now.
Lucia blinked his eyes but seemed to catch on from the bitter smile on the boy’s face.
“Yeah, you’re right.”
A moment later, that brown skin was back to its usual pale tone.
His hipline and shoulder width were male once more too.
“It was Avalon who loved Lucya, not you.”
“Yeah.”
He had felt love toward the girl named Lucya he had seen in his dreams. It had also turned him on when he realized that was Lucia.
But that had never been more important to him than what he felt toward his friend Lucia.
Mutsuki smiled, happy his feelings had gotten through, and Lucia smiled back with his usual mix of friendliness and mischief.
“Then we can have sex with this body next time. We might discover something new.”
“Eh? Ehh!?”
Whether his feelings had indeed gotten through or not, Lucia quickly ended the conversation and grabbed his hand.
Mutsuki could be strong when it came to Ange, Machina, and Lucia, but he was still weak when they came at him by force. Lucia easily dragged him back to his room.
He did such an impressive job that the two girls could only exchange a glance as Mutsuki was snatched away.
“Wait, Lucia-kun…nmhh.”
Lucia forcibly kissed him and pushed him into the bed.
He noticed anew how different male lips felt from female ones and the pleasant sensation on his own lips drained all resistance from him.
A tickling heat grew in his lower stomach and he twisted his body.
Thanks to the way Micha took his virginity, it always turned him on when someone forcibly kissed him like this. He had a switch inside him that was not quite the same as masochism.
“Nh…Lucia, nh, are you sure you want to do this?”
He made sure to ask.
Although asking that when Lucia was being so forceful was like saying he wanted to do it too, so Lucia laughed.
“What we did today felt realllly good, but being in a girl’s body just didn’t feel right. My body might be Lucya’s, but I’ve always been a boy and that’s what feels right to me.”
Lucia stripped off his clothing with practiced hand and removed Mutsuki’s as well.
“I’m so glad you said you prefer this body, Mutsuki-kun.”
“Ahn.”
Mutsuki suddenly found himself naked after he recovered from the passionate kissing.
Lucia, also naked, climbed on top of him.
“Looks like you’re into it¦”
“…Yeah.”
They could see each other’s erections. There was no hiding it with a male body.
“Hm, but it is a shame you’re not still a girl, Mutsuki-kun. You looked so cute that way. I kind of want to do it like that. …Can I turn you into a girl?”
“I-I’d really rather not.”
Lucia’s power could change the sex of Mutsuki’s body at will.
He did somewhat miss the guilty feeling of doing it as a girl and the pleasure he could not experience as a boy, but he wanted to avoid that for a while. It messed with his head and was exhausting.
Lucia smiled as if to say he understood.
“Then gay sex it is. Heh heh heh. Did you know this is called frotting?”
“Ahh…”
Lucia had pulled back his foreskin to reveal the smooth pink head and he pressed it against the somewhat darker colored head of Mutsuki’s penis.
Lucia’s brighter colored one felt incredibly hot to the touch. It felt as hot as the area near the womb in a girl. And that only when the vagina had heated up in preparation for sex.
“Nh, nh, this feels really good, nh, hh.”
“Nh…ah, nh.”
Feeling another boy’s hard thing poking at his penis reminded Mutsuki of when a penis had massaged the area from his vagina to his clitoris while in a girl’s body.
It embarrassed him it felt so good, so his face grew redder and redder.
And the look on his face…
“Mutsuki-kun, you have the same look as when you were a girl.”
“And whose fault is that?”
Even he was not happy when his friend acted like he had not played a role there.
He could almost look back on it and laugh now, but those five days as a girl had been full of trauma and experiences he never should have been through.
Lucia shook his head to say sorry but also put on a mischievous smile.
“Then this isn’t your first time to do this either, is it?”
“Ah.”
Lucia rotated himself around 180 degrees on top of Mutsuki.
They took the sixty-nine position, which brought their hot and swollen erections in front of each other’s faces.
Mutsuki knew exactly what Lucia was asking for and he looked somewhat troubled.
“C’mon, it’ll be fun. Okay?”
“Um…”
More than his usual willingness to do things like this with Lucia, he was motivated by the lack of unpleasantness on Lucia’s face.
When someone so innocently desired him, he had trouble resisting.
“Ahm.”
“Kh.”
He took the penis into his mouth.
