Chapter 469: Let me Into Your Heart
Lucien, his Sisters, and the Sins stay a few hours in Daisy's lab with her. They analyze her Bloody Rose research, looking for anything that can help them now.
But as none of the Sins have as much knowledge as Sloth, they don't find anything special, apart from the various mentions Rose wrote about the core of a phoenix, something that could have been just a legend before.
Meanwhile, Rose spends time with Lucien's other wives, her sisters. After that complicated situation and the fact that her beloved father clearly doesn't support her as she supports him, all she wants is to be with those who support her.
Heike tried to approach Rose, but when he started talking about Lucien in a disrespectful way, she got mad. So he went back to the kitchen and drank almost the entire supply of wine.
Outside the castle, everywhere in Petra, everyone only talks about the stone ships, the army of beautiful women, and their leader, the most handsome and mysterious man anyone has ever heard of.
And the more Elliot, the King, thinks about Lucien, the more he's sure leaving him in Heike's care can't end well. He loves his best friend, but he knows his hot-head personality and doesn't want to create enmity with someone supposedly more powerful than Daisy, and that also helped her.
Then, before dinner, Elliot gets an invitation from Heike to have dinner with them. Maybe it's because Elliot is so worried that he doesn't realize the real reason Heike is doing that.
Night comes as the two Argerim moons shine in the sky. From a window in Daisy's castle, Donna watches the slaves working nonstop.
Then she looks at one of the moons, that one where she and Sophia were. While her sister just slept in the great tower, Donna explored that world. She also met slave empires there, got furious, and destroyed them all.
Donna knows that she doesn't have a specific hatred for slavers but rather just has so much anger inside her heart. Yet, she doesn't mind unleashing that anger on people who deserve it.
"We can already start serving dinner, Master." A maid warns Heike.
"I'll let them know." Heike leaves the kitchen and goes looking for Rose and Lucien's wives.
Arriving in the living room, he finds the girls talking animatedly. "I'm glad you're here; dinner will be served soon in the dining room."
"Oh, I'll call momy." Rose smiles as she walks towards the stairs.
But Heike grabs her by the arm. "No need. I mean, she and that guy are busy with their stuff, so leave them alone."
Rose shakes her head with a disappointed expression. Everyone can see that Heike is drunk, jealous, and acting like a kid throwing a tantrum.
"OK." She responds as she takes a step back, disappointed in her father's attitude. However, she mentally warns Lucien about dinner.
She sighs and leads the other girls into the dining room. But Heike is also upset because of his actions and sits down on a sofa to drink more wine.
Cassidy, Angela, and Aria don't follow the other girls but sit on a sofa in front of Heike.
"Humph!" He looks at their bodies and can't hide a lascivious glow in his eyes. "You don't look like the young girls who usually follow that kind of guy."
Cassidy really wants to beat Heike. Like most of Lucien's wives, she has that longing since she saw Heike look hostilely at her beloved husband.
But Angela holds her hand as she smiles amiably at Heike. "We can understand how you feel. We also have daughters, and we care a lot about their well-being."
"Oh, I see... You're his mothers-in-law." Heike only sees a part of the big picture, and the lustful gleam in his eyes gets more intense, but only when he looks at Angela and Cassidy as he doesn't even look at Aria, or he couldn't hide his racism.
Angela doesn't like the way Heike acts or the strange look on his face, but she really wants to help Lucien because she knows that Heike's death would bring more problems than solutions.
"Yes, we do." So she nods. "And it wasn't easy for either of us to entrust our daughters to him. I mean, we all want to make sure a man is the most perfect of all, or they wouldn't be worthy of our greatest treasures."
Heike drinks more wine straight from the bottle without any etiquette. "You don't understand... The best husband for my daughter wouldn't take her away from me."
Cassidy shakes her head in disapproval. "Actually, we understand. I don't think any parent who loves their children would want to stay away from them. It's always hard to see our children fly with their own wings and create another nest."
"Exactly." He smiles and drinks more wine. "Then why do you look so happy? How can you be sure he's the best man without knowing everyone else? And how can you not seem to mind your daughters flying away with him?"
"We tested him many times." Angela smiles.
"Until we are sure he was the best." Cassidy continues.
Aria smiles too. "And now we fly with him and our daughters."
"It..." Heike is confused as strange thoughts arise in his mind. It's impossible not to notice how lovingly all Lucien's wives talk about him. But he's still not sure that Angela, Cassidy, and Aria are also Lucien's wives.
The girls get up and walk toward the dining room with satisfied expressions on their faces. They can't help but find it enjoyable to provoke Heike and leave him with that confused expression on his face.
Before leaving the living room completely, Cassidy turns back with a fake sad expression. "My bad, I don't think you have the same options as us, but Daisy..."
Heike tries to contain his anger as he waits for the girls to leave the room.
*Smash*
Then he makes a furious expression as he throws the wine bottle at the wall. "FUCK!!! Everything was perfect before this guy showed up in our lives!!"
A maid enters the room and is startled to see Heike in that furious state. But he sees her. "What the hell do you want?!?"
She bows while her legs tremble. "Master... sorry to disturb you, but... the King and the Prince have arrived for dinner."
He makes an expectant expression as he thinks aloud. "Neal… you are my last hope."
-----------------------
In Daisy's lab, Lucien makes a strange expression as he listens to Heike's whispers. Part of him knew his new father-in-law was going to cause more problems, so he kept his senses focused on him.
"Something wrong?" Daisy asks as she notices Lucien's expression. She already knows him well enough to notice when he's concerned. In fact, she knows he's always concerned about his family, but he manages to hide that most of the time.
"Is nothing." He smiles at her. "Dinner is ready."
"Let's have dinner then." She smiles back and rests her hand on his shoulder. "And then we continue, okay?
"Actually, I think we'd better leave that for when we meet Sloth, as she's the wisest of us." He comments. "Then we can focus on moving your lab to that island so you can comfortably work on making more potions with those life crystals."
She nods while making a thoughtful expression. "Sounds nice... And what about you helping me with that? I mean, you have life affinity and this secret ingredient..."
"Hahaha..." Lucien chuckles as he enjoys Daisy's smile. "It would be a good opportunity for you to teach me alchemy."
Her eyes sparkle. "Are you really interested in alchemy?"
"Of course." He quickly responds. "Such art is so useful, so why wouldn't I want to learn it? The fact that my future teacher is so beautiful is a bonus."
"Hehehe..." Daisy giggles while not realizing that her hand is stroking Lucien's shoulder. "You've already learned the first lesson: kissing your teacher's ass."
The atmosphere between them quickly becomes tense, sexually tense, of course. But then Lucien becomes concerned about Rose's reaction if she sees that. [Shit!! What am I doing?!]
Daisy can't get the image of Lucien really kissing her ass out of her mind, and she also feels guilty, not just for Rose but also for Heike. [Shit!! What am I thinking?!]
But they both keep looking at each other as Daisy can't stop stroking Lucien's shoulder, and he feels more and more like moving his hands to her waist.
"What are you doing??" Amelia, who was concentrating on the Bloody Rose research, looks at them with a curious expression.
Daisy quickly takes her hand off Lucien's shoulder as she steps back. "It..."
"This…" Lucien feels even worse. He doesn't want to mess up by thinking with his lower head instead of the upper one.
Amelia giggles while feeling good by teasing Lucien. "I heard dinner is ready, so why aren't we going to eat? I'm fucking hungry!"
[Damn!! I'm fucking hungry too!!] Daisy and Lucien think at the same time.
Then they leave the laboratory and head towards the stairs. But Lucien sees Donna at the window and returns while he talks to Daisy and Amelia. "You girls can go ahead; Donna and I are going after you in a sec."
As they descend the stairs, he approaches Donna and hugs her gently from behind. "What's on your mind?"
"Can't you read my mind now that we have a soul contract?" She asks as she enjoys his hug, which makes her instantly feel better.
He smiles. "I don't try to read my partners' minds as communication is essential to keep a healthy relationship. How about you tell me what bothers you, sister."
[A healthy relationship...] Donna wonders if that's what she really wants to have with Lucien. Well, their relationship always looked good, but crossing the line between siblings can't be healthy, right?
"Everything." She answers. "Everything makes me furious! I need to unleash this rage that consumes me, not just to feel better but also to get stronger along with Wrath."
"I understand." He comments as he caresses her waist and starts kissing her cheek.
"Then let me go there, Luci…" She begs as she feels like moaning in pleasure because of his caresses. "Let me unleash my rage on those damn racists! They deserve my ax."
"Yes, they do..." Lucien continues stroking her and kisses her shoulder and neck.
"So... mm~~!!" She tries to speak, but what comes out of her mouth is a cute moan. While she feels so good in Lucien's arms, the anger inside her starts to calm down.
Although it is possible to feel anger and pleasure simultaneously, the feeling of pleasure that he causes is very powerful, and it overcomes everything else.
"You can kill these idiots. I'll even go with you at the right time. But this isn't that moment yet." He keeps stroking her and can't stop his cock from getting hard, just like Donna can't stop her panties from getting wet.
"I see..." She comments as it gets harder and harder to speak. "Our sisters are out there alone, and we need to find them… I don't want to be so selfish… so help me deal with this damn anger."
"Yes..." He answers. "After we solve these problems, we're going to come back here, and you're going to give these slavers what they deserve."
So he continues. "But now we need to follow through with our plans and head to Blue Star. But don't worry; I'm sure we'll find a lot of arrogant idiots there who will run towards your ax."
"But…" Donna caresses Lucien's hands on her stomach.
"Yes... I'm here too, to help you deal with any anger, any frustrations, or negative feelings... and also... whatever desires you have." He comments as he turns her body and kisses her lips.
Donna doesn't resist but surrenders to Lucien's care as she kisses him passionately.
