As Werther slowly approached, Sophia grew a little nervous.
"Handsome, I don't think I owe you anything."
Werther pulled Sophia into his arms, holding the alluring, mature woman close.
"Of course you do. I just killed every member of the Vinsmoke family on this island."
Werther's hand began to wander.
After hearing that, Sophia understood what he meant.
"Th-then all right. What do you want? I'll help you turn the dragon hide into a coat."
Werther swept Sophia into his arms.
"The coat? We can talk about that later. Right now, you're mine."
Sophia had known what Werther meant all along.
"Close the door. Close the door first."
With a swish, the shop shut its doors. It normally stayed open until ten at night, but today it had closed as soon as darkness fell.
In Sophia's bedroom behind the shop, Werther lay bare-chested on the bed, with an equally naked Sophia resting against his chest.
Werther had never expected to be Sophia's first. She was a grown woman who hadn't even known him before today. It would be absurd to expect her to have saved herself for him.
They both wanted this, and they were having a good time.
"Why did you suddenly change your mind? Did my beauty win you over?"
"Heh, of course not. Vinsmoke Niji was just too arrogant. Working with a beauty like you is much more pleasant, and it comes with benefits like this. What's not to like?"
Sophia thumped Werther on the chest.
"What a heartless man. Oh well. You saved my family from being killed, so don't worry about the dragon hide. I'll do everything I can with it.
And what style do you want?"
Sophia sat up and looked at Werther. At the sight, Werther pulled her back into his arms.
