Alice Margatroid x Touhou 61P (Patreon)

The resort hotel room was bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun, its golden light filtering through the sheer curtains. Alice Margatroid stood by the window, her blue dress shimmering like the ocean outside. She adjusted the hem of her dress, her fingers brushing against the delicate fabric as she glanced at the man sitting on the edge of the bed.

“You’ve been quiet,” she said, her voice calm but laced with curiosity. “Something on your mind?”

He looked up, his eyes meeting hers. “Just thinking,” he replied, his tone soft but thoughtful. “This place… it feels like a dream. And you… you’re the most captivating part of it.”

Alice’s lips curved into a faint smile, though her cheeks warmed at his words. “Flattery won’t get you anywhere,” she teased, though her tone was gentle. She stepped closer, the fabric of her dress swaying with each movement. “But I’ll admit… this is nice.”

He reached out, his hand brushing against hers. “Nice?” he repeated, his voice low and playful. “That’s all?”

Alice’s breath hitched as his fingers intertwined with hers. “Ah… you’re impossible,” she murmured, though her heart raced as he pulled her closer. The warmth of his touch sent a shiver down her spine, and she let out a soft sigh. “Ngh… fine. It’s more than nice.”

The tension between them grew as he stood, his hands resting on her waist. Alice’s blue eyes locked with his, her usual composure slipping just enough to reveal the vulnerability beneath. “You’re not playing fair,” she whispered, her voice trembling slightly.

“I don’t need to play fair,” he replied, his voice steady but filled with warmth. “I just need to be here with you.”

Alice’s breath caught as he leaned in, his lips brushing against hers in a kiss that was both tender and electric. Her hands found his shoulders, pulling him closer as the world outside faded away. “Ahh… you’re lucky I let you this close,” she murmured, her voice breaking as their connection deepened.
