Max unlocked the main door of his villa as quietly as possible, not wanting to wake up Emily, who had taken a room on the ground floor, and entered.

However… It was futile because he hadn't even taken a few steps in when Emily's low and careful voice sounded out.

"Max? Is that you?"

Max sighed inwardly and called out, "Yes, Mom. It's me."

A few seconds later, the door of her room opened and she appeared, holding a kerosene lamp in her hand.

Gulp!

Max's breath got caught in his throat when he saw her because she was dressed in a red, silken night gown that stuck to her body, accentuating her already incredibly sexy curves, making her look irresistible.

As if it wasn't already enough to ignite the flames of his desire, her gown was also almost see through—he could vaguely see her bra and panty.

Again, as if it wasn't already enough to drive him mad with lust, the gentle lamp light illuminating her body in the otherwise dark ambience made her look like the goddess of charm—incredibly attractive.

Gulping his saliva and taking a deep breath to suppress the rising heat in his body, he asked, his voice coming out huskier than he intended to, "You haven't slept yet?"

Emily had stopped breathing when she noticed his heated gaze stuck to her body and despite all her mental preparation, she became incredibly nervous and had begun regretting her decision to entice him to… make a move on her.

The normalcy of the governor's mansion, and the readily available food and water hadn't dulled her understanding of the current and worsening situation of the world around them.

So, she knew she had to rely on Max. This resolve of hers was strengthened even more when she found out he had become the leader of the mansion after eliminating a threat that the mansion itself was incapable of dealing with.

Of course, her mind had told her that there was no need for her to do this… take this embarrassing step since Natalie had already strengthened their familial bond, and sooner or later he would make a move on her and Sophie given how much he desired them.

However…

Her more rational or active mind told her to do it because if she didn't do it, she would become Max's and would probably not have a say in things, but if she took action, things might be different. So, despite the embarrassment and the shame she was feeling, she decided to act.

"No… I couldn't fall asleep." She forced out the words before coughing lightly and asking, in a more normal voice, "You are late? Was the work too much?"

Noticing the trembling in her voice and the slight squirming of her body, Max understood the reason she was dressed more generously tonight compared to before and couldn't help but become excited—things were going on the right way.

Unfortunately, it seemed she wasn't yet ready.

'Really unfortunate!' He sighed in his heart, but then cheered himself up by thinking, 'No worries. It's only a matter of time before she becomes mine.'

This thought made his cock hard, heated his blood and made his breathing deeper and hotter.

If he was not resolved on having her initiate things, he would have most definitely pounced on her this instant and would have…

Huu~

He caught himself before he got too excited, closed his eyes and exhaled deeply.

"Go sleep now, Mom." He said and turned to walk away.

Seeing this, Emily froze for a moment—not knowing how to react. She felt relieved that he didn't do anything, but it also made her anxious which made her cry out:

"W-Wait!"

Max stopped in his tracks, and took a deep breath before turning around and calmly asking, "Yes?"

"Are you hungry?" She asked and then thinking her words might have another implication, she became flustered and added, "I-I mean you worked for several hours. So, you might want to eat something before going to sleep, right?"

Max stared at her for a moment, his eyes flickering in thought. Then, he nodded, "Sure. I'll eat something."

"Okay. I'll heat up the leftovers from earlier and bring it to you. You can wait w-wherever you like." Even before she finished speaking, she walked toward the kitchen, clearly wanting to avoid having to look at him as she said this.

Max understood what she meant and after hesitating for a moment, he called out, "Alright. I'll be in your room then."

Stop!

Emily froze in her tracks hearing this, but then she continued walking, a little faster than before, and said, "...Okay. I won't be long."

…

Max lay on her bed, staring at the dark ceiling while slowly inhaling her lingering scent. It was making him restless, but he didn't want to stop either—she was just so attractive and desirable to him.

Just a few minutes later, she entered the room, a food tray in one hand and the lamp in the other.

"Do you want to eat in bed, or here?" She asked, sounding more composed now, while pointing toward the round table and a chair.

"I'll eat there." Max said, got out of the bed and walked over as she lay the food tray and lamp on the table.

Calmly, he sat down in the chair and just as after pushing the food tray near him, Emily was going to take the other chair and sit in front of him, he grabbed her hand and pulled her onto his lap, making her cutely yelp out in surprise.

"Kya~!"

"W-What are you—" She began asking, becoming flustered once again. But Max didn't let her finish and calmly said, "It's been a very long time since you have fed me, Mom. Why don't you do it today?"

"Ah, Is that so?" Emily asked, staring at him.

Max nodded.

"Okay." Emily nodded after a breath and shifted on his lap to sit properly.

"Here, let me support you." Being ever so helpful son, Max wrapped his hand around her fleshy, but lithe waist to support her.

Emily bit her lower lip and closed her eyes for a moment. She then tore off a piece from the bread, dipped it into the soup and after blowing it on two times to cool it off since the soup was piping hot, she brought it to his lips.

Max opened his mouth and took the bite in. At the same time, while looking into her eyes, he slowly sucked on her fingers, sending a shiver down her spine.

"Delicious." He whispered.
