Novel Bin Chapter 83 83 - Clarity [18+]
The day had been cruel, and after explaining everything that he\'d been through to his servants, Haruki was too tired to lift a finger. Surrounded by the three beauties, he was taking a leisurely bath with towels wrapped around their bodies.
"So you knew she could control me?" Haruki asked Asuka after she\'d just mentioned the time Asmodia had threatened her to keep her mouth shut.
Nodding her head, her tail weakly wagged about in shame. However, pulling her closer to himself, Haruki began patting her head to provide some comfort.
"It\'s okay, not like knowing would\'ve changed anything," greedily looking in his direction, the other two seemed starved of attention. "For now, I\'m just worried about Moriyana. I don\'t know where she took us while teleporting between spaces, but Moriyana was left behind somewhere in there."
Moving in closer, Margarette snuggled into Haruki\'s neck. On the other side, Riley too wrapped her hands around Asuka\'s waist and pushed her head against her back.
"Ekkk!" Surprised by the sudden assault, Asuka let out a terrified yelp. "What the hell are you doing?!"
"What? Isn\'t it normal for a servant to want some kinship with her master?" Riley\'s reply made Asuka think about the way she felt towards her master, and thus depriving Riley of her attention felt much crueler in her mind.
"Umm…okay, just warn me before doing something like that," as soon as Asuka gave her permission, Riley jumped forward and wrapped her hands around her master. "Wh-what are you doing now?!"
"You\'re so warm!" Hugging Asuka like a warm pillow, a cheerful purr left Riley\'s lips.
Watching the whole thing unfold, Haruki felt somewhat jollier, and yet the worries from before refused to escape his mind. Despite having tried all kinds of distractions, his mind inevitably came back to the same topic.
\'What am I supposed to do? I don\'t know where Moriyana is, and Asmodia…hell I don\'t even know if she\'ll wake up again.\' Drawing in his worries, he was fished out by a peckish kiss on the cheeks by Margarette.
"You still seemed worried," turning to look at her, Haruki couldn\'t help but notice the drastic change in her demeanor.
Once she wanted to kill him, and now she was servicing him with her lips.
"Anyone would be, I doubt things will be the same for any of us after this, even for the duchy," resting her head on his shoulder, she ran her hands down to his stomach.
"If it\'s about policies and such, then you can leave it up to me," she offered, peering up at him with a warm smile.
"Hey, stop hoarding master!" Pulling Haruki in her direction, Asuka moved to his front. Sitting down on his lap, she placed her arms around his neck before pushing her lips against his.
Her lips as soft as rose petals melted all his worries. The once rampant thoughts in his mind were replaced by something else entirely. Placing his hand over her ass, he squeezed onto it tightly. As her towel fell off her body, Asuka pulled away for a moment to shake her breasts to tease him a little.
"You love them, don\'t you, master? Hehe" Chuckling to herself, she was trying to distract Haruki from having tensing thoughts.
"If it comes to breasts then I think I have you beat Asuka," taking off her towel, Margarette showed off her bountiful bosom.
Trying to distract Haruki as well, she pushed her pink-nipped pair right against his chest. Pressed onto him, her massive breasts not only covered his chest but also blanketed his whole upper body.
"Ahh…um," left to the side, Riley glanced down embarrassed at her budding breasts with little volume. "Wait!"
Changing her appearance into that of Haruki, she grabbed onto Asuka to try and keep her to herself.
\'Riley\'s really attached to her, is it because she\'s her master?\' Popping up in his head was the vivid image of Asuka promising herself to Haruki on their first night in bed. \'Her love is obviously different.\' In Riley\'s eyes, Asuka was her savior from a curse she\'d tried to escape her whole life, so there was bound to be some innocent affection.
"Riley I can tell you apart from the smell, I love master\'s odor much better," not letting go of Haruki so easily, Asuka pushed Margarette away. "It\'s my turn now!"
"Wait…" Halting Asuka by grabbing her by the shoulder, Haruki glanced around at the three and gave them all a smile. "I know what you\'re all trying to do, but I\'m okay. Besides, I\'m sure that everything I\'ve told you must be disturbing you as well."
In an attempt to please their master, they were in fact sacrificing their own sanity. Having picked up on the clues, however, Haruki was quickly able to figure out exactly what they were trying to do.
"I know you\'re all terrified, so let\'s just call it a day and try to get some sleep," although it took them a while to consider the option, they all ended up nodding in agreement.
Once the bath was over, they all went on their separate ways to rest in their rooms. However, as the night grew dreamier, and yet their hearts refused to calm, they all made their way to Haruki\'s room to potentially get some sleep together. There, laying down in bed in each other\'s arms, a wave of comfort washed over their hearts that soothed them all right over to sleep.
While they enjoyed their strolls through pleasant dreams, a pair of watchful eyes glared at them from the edge of the bed. Standing towering over the groups, Roselia tried to remember back to the time she had cuddled along with the young duke. A joyous smile, and plentiful giggles were all she saw in her memories, and yet as she watched over him now it all felt false and an alteration of reality.
"What kind of bodyguards sleep in the same bed as their master?" She mumbled, unsure as to what exactly was happening. "I might just burn…"
Feeling her hands reaching towards the duke, the sweet memories from his childhood as she coddled him in her arms stopped her from going any further.
\'I can\'t or all these years away from my children would all have been for nothing,\' reconsidering her plans, she turned around and left the group alone.
