Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1711

Severin was momentarily taken aback by her question. He then replied earnestly, "Of course. I mean every word. How can I possibly lie to you about that sort of stuff? Why do you ask? Have you already made a decision?"

Severin had asked that question half-teasingly, but Gilda nodded and answered with the utmost seriousness, "Yes. I've decided to give you a chance and try to accept you as my boyfriend."

"Really?" Severin's face lit up with joy, and he was beside himself with excitement. Gilda was a good woman, and he had been hoping to gain Gilda's acceptance. Diane and the others had already given their consent, so he would naturally want to take responsibility for her.

Gilda smiled when she saw Severin's ecstatic expression. She rolled her eyes at him and used his words on him. "Duh! How can I possibly lie to you about that sort of stuff?"

"I'm super happy to hear that!" Severin was elated and went forward to reach for Gilda's hand.

Gilda frowned and asked, "Are you sure that you can accept me even though I'm no longer a virgin?"

Severin smiled bitterly and responded, "How many more times do I need to reassure you again? Haven't I already told you that it doesn't bother me? I'm genuinely happy, Gilda. Is it okay if I hug you?"

'Why am I having these thoughts?' she wondered. She never had such lewd thoughts before, and she could not help but feel afraid at those newfound feelings that had likely been spurred on by her transition from girlhood into womanhood. Memories of that particular fateful night began to flood in—she may have been immobile, but she was fully conscious of her physical sensations.

Unbeknownst to them, four men had descended from the nearby mountains.

"Tsk, tsk! Look at you two lovebirds hugging each other so tightly! This is hardly the appropriate place for such affection, don't you think?" one of the men remarked as they all blocked Severin and Gilda's path.
