She's become a lot more easily embarrassed as this goes on.

@Geist Which is funny wasn't she the first to sleep with him?
@Trevor Wellington Yep. Though it's trying to differ her from the rest of the harem.
@Geist I think the idea is that, initially, they were survivors of this terrible event and Cecily was focussed more on her vengeance than anything, and probably wasn't expecting to survive. What was between them was purely physical expression. Now that her task is done, she's coming to terms with the fact that she has feelings for Shirou, and as someone who was a pirate and not used to allowing herself those feelings, it's putting her in an awkward place.
@My Own Worst NPC I really don't think it took until this chapter for Cecily to suddenly realize she had romantic feelings for MC. Nor do I believe that what Cecily and MC shared was purely physical and nothing more. At least, it seem clear to me that Cecily considers it more than that.
People seem to have forgotten how, just 4 chapters earlier, Cecily proposed marriage to MC as a way of taking responsibility and spending the rest of her life trying to make amends for the trouble she caused him... Yet MC responded by soundly and, without much tact, rejected her, mostly by explaining that he's not the marrying type. I haven't forgiven MC for not explaining that much earlier, stringing these girls along, and lacking sensitivity.
Out of all these girls, I feel the most sympathy towards Cecily, especially as she was one of MC's firsts and because I think she's developed as a character. Granted, she was too focused on revenge. That said, I can respect her determination to face her past and put it behind her before she could face her feelings for MC and consider a future together.
