Chapter 300 - Not this time

"Hey! What's the problem with you guys? You were fighting alongside just ago, but now you want to fight each other again?" Eve tries to push Lucien and Pride away from each other.

Lucien continues to look into Pride's eyes as he speaks to Eve. "She has to answer for her actions. Our father is primarily to blame for selling our souls to demons, but Pride was the one who made the offer."

"I know, but we need their power..." Eve says in a sad tone.

Lucien looks at Eve with a loving and concerned expression. "Big sis... now we are together, and I was lucky to be with L.u.s.t. Sophia is also lucky to be with Sloth, but what about our other sisters? As far as I know, they are out there with their feelings in a mess while being influenced by a demon that can be manipulative like Envy or arrogant like Pride."

"You know, the soul contract prevents the demons from hurting our sisters. We can only hope that they get along." Eve tries to think positively.

Lucien shakes his head. "That's not the main problem, but the f.u.c.k.i.n.g bloody rose. When Pride agreed to use us as an experiment, she believed in an unknown woman's word about a supposed pact that could save us from going crazy and having a horrible death."

"Did L.u.s.t tell you that?" Eve asks as she looks at L.u.s.t with an inquiring expression.

"Yes, L.u.s.t is my beloved wife, and she doesn't hide anything from me," Lucien speaks with love and pride in his tone.

While L.u.s.t is unable to contain her happy smile, Envy pouts. "I don't hide anything from you either."

"..." Lucien and Eve look at Envy with stern expressions, which means: Shut up! And Envy understands, staying silent.

Eve put her hand on Lucien's shoulder as she feels that is a little strange as he is now 1.94 meters tall. "I need you to tell me everything about that and also about the woman named Aylin, as well as anything important."

Lucien nods to Eve but then looks at Pride. "This isn't over yet. I'm going to punish you for all that shit."

Pride laughs. "Hahaha... That we will see, boy."

"Don't pay any attention to her. Sit here." Eve takes Lucien's hand and makes him sit on a chair in front of the table before sitting on one next to it.

Eve quickly fills a glass with juice while taking some cookies and giving them to Lucien. "Eat this. You look so thin... have you been eating properly? Have you been sleeping properly?"

Lucien feels like he's being treated like a child, but Eve has always been like that when they weren't having hard training sessions so they could both avenge their mothers.

He eats some cookies and drinks the juice Eve gave him. "I'm fine... My wives take good care of my needs."

Lucien's wives can't help but smile as Eve makes a strange expression. "Wives, hmm... I still have to get used to it."

"Well, I'll tell you everything from the beginning..." Lucien starts to tell all his steps since he left Eve's side in the mountain fortress when she went to make the contract with Pride.

At that time, Lucien was depressed, without self-confidence, and confused. But the current Lucien surprises Eve more and more as he relates all his development so far.

And, as expected, Eve got confused at the beginning of the story. "What do you mean with you put a soul contract tattoo on Sophia?"

Lucien doesn't have to be a genius to know what kind of reaction Eve will have on learning that Sophia, as well as Amelia, are his wives too. However, he doesn't want to lie or hide something so important.

"I will explain everything about Sophia and me, but first, I want to tell you how I got here and my current plans."

Eve can feel that Lucien and Sophia have done 'something wrong,' but she is also curious about many other things, so she nods. "Okay."

Then Lucien explains each update of goals on his journey towards getting stronger and meeting his sisters again, meeting the women who have become his current beloved wives, and of course, introducing them to Eve in a 'formal' way.

He explains everything he and L.u.s.t know about the purple world house, Lucien's demonic and dragonic heritage, as well as the golden naginata and Aylin.

Lucien also explains about the crystal mine, the fact that Rose's mother is a vampire, and so being able to help them to understand more about the bloody rose and an alchemist, being able to help them with the crystals.

Finally, he talks about his current journey to the Alliance to help his wives get their revenge against the werewolf and manticore clans.

Eve and Pride get really shocked by Lucien's story. Pride cannot believe that he is really a demon and dragon hybrid and can make multiple soul contracts even with other great demons.

However, Eve doesn't care if Lucien has wings, horns, and a tail. He will always be her little brother, just as Sophia is their sister.

Eve looks at Amelia's belly with a suspicious expression as she speaks to Lucien. "You said you only learned how to make soul contracts using your energy alone later... so what exactly did you do with Sophia?"

Lucien feels unfortunate for Eve, even after discovering so many shocking things about him, is still more interested in his relationship with Sophia.

He prepares to feel pain and speaks. "Everything."

"Everything?" Eve is confused.

Lucien shakes his head. "Well, we didn't have time to do exactly everything, but we did a LOT of things, and we will certainly do everything at some point when we are together again."

Eve keeps gazing at Lucien's face as she tries to understand his words, but then her mind wakes up to the harsh reality that she doesn't want to believe in.

"DAMN!! Lucien!?! Why did you do that?!?!?!" Eve gets furious and pulls Lucien's ear.

"Calm down, big sis. That-" Lucien tries to explain, but Eve ignores his words and continues to pull his ear.

Then she looks at L.u.s.t. "That was you, don't you? You forced him to do that with his own sister!! I'll kill you for f.u.c.k.i.n.g my family up, L.u.s.t!!!"

L.u.s.t raises her hands in protest. "Me? I had just finished reading some of Sophia's memories, and almost everything in her mind was about her forbidden love for her little brother. All I did was help the weaker two of our group get an initial boost. Her life mana just saved Lucien's life in his most dangerous moment."

Eve understands that it was essential for Lucien and probably helped Sophia a lot too. Still, she can't help but think that she failed as the oldest sister when her siblings started having that kind of forbidden relationship. [What am I going to say to Sophia's mother? Or Lucien's? What kind of big sis am I? A failure like our stupid father?]

She shakes her head while making a sorry expression. "It is my fault... I let Luci and Sophia get very close when they were kids, resulting in her having those feelings. Everyone could see that it was getting out of control, but I chose to ignore that because I thought they would never cross that line."

Lucien takes Eve's hand. "My mistake was neglecting her feelings for so long. I was trapped in a bizarre world of depression and a quest for revenge that kept me from giving the love that her... not only her but that all my beloved sisters need."

"What are you talking about, Luci?" Eve gets confused again.

But then she looks at Amelia." Amelia? I don't think you're right about her. Amelia has always been envious. She envies Donna's strength, Claire's intelligence... Damn, she envies even Naomi's bright personality, and of course, she also envies Sophia's feelings for you."

*BAM*

Amelia punches the table hard. "You're the wrong one, sister! I really envied my sisters... but my jealousy of Sophia was about her closeness to Lucien because I always felt those feelings for him."

"Do you dare claim to have that kind of feeling for your little brother?!?!?" Eve looks at Amelia with a stern expression.

Amelia gets up from her chair while gazing at Eve in the eyes. "Yes! And I won't give up on that!!"

"Naughty brat!! I will teach you a lesson!!" Eve gets up too.

While Lucien's wives are shocked by the interaction between siblings, the great demons find it very interesting to see how the demonic energies arouse within them while their feelings get out of control. The combination of their feelings, bloody rose influence, and the sins' influence seems to work perfectly for generating demonic energy.

Lucien, on the other hand, is only upset and sad about that. He sees it as a waste of time when they should be getting stronger together to keep their family safe.

He respects Eve a lot and is aware of Amelia's jealous personality, but he can't let things get out of hand.

"Enough!" Lucien speaks in an authoritative tone before taking Eve's arm and making her sit beside him again.

Then he looks at Amelia. "Sit down."

Eve and Amelia pout while they sit. Lucien's tone sounds really upset, and while Amelia doesn't want to lose the pats and kisses she loves so much, Eve is too confused to think straight.

"Luci... that is wrong no matter how you explain it." Eve looks into Lucien's eyes with a sad expression.

Lucien strokes Eve's face gently. "You were always right about everything, big sis. But now you don't see the obvious: We always love each other as siblings, and that hasn't changed. Just now, we can use that love to get stronger too."

"But... that line..." Eve can't get over the fact that Lucien and Sophia had s.e.x.

Lucien slowly brings Eve's face to his as he strokes her cheek. "What Sophia and I did was our choice, and that has nothing to do with anyone else. I can still help Amelia and you without having to cross that line. Just with..."

Eve watches Lucien's lips getting closer and closer to her. She cannot help but have strange thoughts. [He is so handsome... his scent is so addictive... everything about him seems created to attract women... even his sisters...]

Lucien knows that words aren't going to help much now, but if he can show the effects of his demonic energy to Eve, she'll understand that it is the best way for their family to get stronger.

He slowly approaches their lips, intending to kiss Eve, but in his mind, he thinks something is wrong. [It shouldn't be too easy...]

As soon as their lips are less than an inch apart, Eve smiles strangely. "Do you really think you can seduce your big sis?"
