**Chapter 19: Entwined Desires**

Rin just kissed Saki, her lips pressing against hers with a gentle yet firm touch. “That doesn’t answer my question,” Saki said, her voice barely above a whisper. Rin didn't respond, instead choosing to deepen the kiss, her tongue probing Saki's mouth with a slow and deliberate rhythm. Saki's breath caught in her throat as she felt her lungs burning, her body still sore from their earlier encounter. As Rin broke away for a moment, Saki gasped for air, her eyes locking onto Rin's. But before she could process what was happening, Rin was kissing her again, this time more intensely. Saki's head spun, her vision blurring as she felt herself getting lost in the sensation. Just as Rin was pulling away again, her gaze shifted to Nozomi, who was watching the scene with a mix of concern and curiosity. Saki's eyes narrowed, her body tensing as she issued a warning. “Don’t you dare,” she threatened, her voice low and menacing. Rin raised an eyebrow, a mischievous glint in her eye. She knew Saki was too exhausted to actually stop her, her body still battered and bruised from their earlier encounter. With a sly smile, Rin turned her attention to Nozomi, her lips brushing against Nozomi's in a gentle yet insistent kiss. Nozomi's eyes widened in surprise, but she didn't pull away. Instead, she seemed to melt into the kiss, her body relaxing as she allowed Rin to take control. As Rin deepened the kiss, her hands roamed Nozomi's body, leaving a trail of hickeys on her neck and shoulders. Nozomi's eyes began to well up with tears, her voice cracking as she tried to speak. Rin didn't stop, her lips and tongue working in tandem to claim Nozomi's mouth as her own. Saki watched the scene, a mix of emotions swirling inside her. She felt a pang of jealousy, but it was tempered by a sense of resignation. She had given Rin permission to do as she pleased, and now she was paying the price. As Rin finally broke away from Nozomi, she smiled, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction. Nozomi was crying openly now, her body shaking with sobs. Rin wrapped her arms around Nozomi, holding her close as she whispered words of comfort into her ear. Saki watched the scene, her body still aching from their earlier encounter. She knew she needed to process what had happened, to come to terms with the emotions that were swirling inside her. But for now, she just lay there, her eyes fixed on Rin and Nozomi as they comforted each other.
