âWhatâs happening? Why did you stop me?â Lupa tilted her head. On her face was a puzzled frown as she wanted to know why they were stopping her.
To Lupa, a woman was in trouble and in need of help. âWe might be next.â Was on her mind.
Ester kept silent, saying no words with a face flushed red. She even started averting her eyes away from Vincent because of what was most probably happing in the next room.
âI thought you saw enough hints, but you donât know much about how humans do things. Ahem... so, you know, they are... mating. â Vincent answered slowly. He couldnât believe how loud they were going at it or how thin the walls were.
âWhat!â Lupa raised her brow, then frowned in anger. She seemed somewhat pissed by this matter, as if she was taking it personally.
âBut... but... we havenât mated yet. Why can they and we canât? â Lupa felt like she lost, but after a brief moment of thinking, she curved a grin and asked, âMy mate! Does it mean itâs the right time like itâs their right time?â
[Hey, hey, hey. This is your chance! You can do it. Come on, I believe in you. Your time to shine has come!]
.....
Kazumi started encouraging and pushing Vincent, urging him to act on the situation. A fortunate situation that presented itself after deciding to sleep in the cheap bedroom.
âIt is still not the right moment?â Lupa went in front of Vincentâs face and cutely asked again. Then she held his arms with a tight grip as if she didnât want him to leave.
With Lupa and Kazumi showing their persistence in the matter, Vincent decided to let the shy and embarrassed Ester reject the idea and run away like usual.
âIâm not ready for this yet, and... I must delay until I get a lot of money to heal my body, or they might leave me because of my horrible body.â Vincent once again negatively thought.
âAhem. You can ask Ester first. I can mate with you anytime, but your sisterâs confirmation is important.â Vincent placed the problem on Esterâs shoulder.
Lupa turned her head, swapping to the next target. She rushed to Ester and started encouraging the red-beat nervous Ester to mate with Vincent.
Unfortunately for Vincent and his perfect plan to heal his body first, Ester agreed to Lupaâs wishes after a minute of persistence. Following this, Vincent could hear Kazumi laughing at his failed plan to delay the event.
Ester mustered her courage and looked at Vincent. Her heart raced from nervousness while stuttering, âC-ca-can you b-be gentle?â
âOf course... wait, what?â Vincent couldnât believe his ears. âBut... I donât want to show you my disfigured body. It will be a nightmare instead of a memorable time. You fainted last time.â
âI donât care! My mateâs body is my mateâs body. I only want you.â Lupa denied Vincentâs excuse to leave it for another time.
âI-I already told you before. Your b-body is because of us. I-I donât mind yo-your na-naked bo-body. Th-the last time it w-was a mis-misunderstanding.â Ester stuttered while averting her eyes.
[Give up. You are a bit too much, I say. You have two beauties in front of you, yet you donât wish to partake in such a feast. Are you afraid they will dislike you after you show them your body?]
[Well, it seems you forgot how we three became your retainers. The system checked our compatibility with yours and deemed Ester, Lupa, and yours truly as trustable people to keep by your side.]
-I...-
âFine...â Vincent said. Then he started explaining why he tried so hard not to spend a night with them. How afraid and ashamed he feels to see them disgusted at him. Vincent doesnât know if he can remain positive if a person he came to like and trusts start to hate him.
âIf you two wonât mind then, Lupa, your wish is granted.â Vincent raised a smile, happy that his fears were put to rest temporarily.
Lupa didnât waste time and started undressing. After living so long without wearing clothes, it wasnât a problem to undress.
However, Ester is a different story. She froze still like a living statue, too embarrassed and nervous to move an inch. It seemed her previous words used all the courage she gathered.
âThere is no need to be shy, Ester. You can be and act like Lupa. Remember, I am yours, and you are mine.â Vincent said with his cheeks visibly red and his heart racing.
Ester slightly nodded and slowly lifted her hands with great embarrassment. Unfortunately, the impatient Lupa didnât like to wait, so she approached Ester and started undressing her.
It caused Vincent to turn around and hold his chest. He didnât know if his heart was about to burst out of his body from the stimulating sight.
[You better stop acting so pure, owner of a large research material folder filled with games, pictures, and videos. I suggest itâs time to put all that research data to use, hehehehe.]
Suddenly, an excited predator jumped on her prey, causing the two of them to fall on the bed. Lupaâs aura changed, and she extruded fierceness.
What happened next couldnât be described with words as the horny wolf girl unexpectedly possessed bright glowing golden eyes and with reaction speed too quick to grasp.
In the few seconds of Primal Insight that activated on its own, Vincentâs bandages were removed at the same speed as if someone ripped the bandages with an extremely sharp blade.
âBut doesnât Primal Insight only activate and help Lupa in her time in need? I wonder what other requirements she needs for her ability to activate.â Kazumi pondered. The urge to know everything made her brainstorm a possible reason.
That night, Lupaâs wish to mate with her chosen alpha finally came true. The same could be said for Ester, as she also secretly wanted what other women had.
Ester wished to be loved, but her shyness always kept her from saying what she wanted. She always remained with the mindset of being unworthy for having a small chest. Her inferiority complex caused her much harm.
However, after this night to remember, Ester started thinking differently. She only needs to be accepted by the one person she loves instead of people she doesnât know.
A long, long time later, on a mattress with a broken wooden bed stand...
Vincent looked at the ceiling with a smile, unable to leave his face. He felt exhausted, yet he felt liberated at the same time. As if a thing that held them back has now disappeared.
Vincent looked to his right and saw Lupa sleeping with a smile on her face. She seemed to have a happy dream.
Vincent then looked to his left. Soon their eyes met, yet Ester didnât flinch nor look shy.
Ester looked at Vincent as if she didnât need to worry anymore about being unworthy of being loved from the inferiority complex telling her she is lacking.
Vincent wanted to support Ester and help to overcome her shyness, âEster, you are pretty and donât need to hide your feelings from me. I will always have your back.â
After hearing this, Ester curved a smile and unhesitantly kissed Vincent. Then, she said with a pair of red cheeks before turning to the other side and hiding from his sight, âGood night.â
âGood night, my daring Ester.â Vincent slightly teased her.
[Congratulations, you blessed man. Now sleep early, or you will feel sore from the broken bed.]
Kazumi felt happy for Vincent. She saw all his past and knew quite well he needed a place to call his own. A safe place to relax and let go of his troubling thoughts. Fortunately, he found the company he always wished to have.
Vincent closed his eyes and wished for all days to be filled without worry and enjoy his hundred years in this world with Ester, Lupa, and Kazumi.
*Day 57*
The next day arrived. Vincent opened his eyes and saw Ester and Lupa chatting about something.
Lupa looked at Vincent with a frown and asked, âWe need to talk.â
âThere is something we need to know. â Ester added.
[Ohh boy. I guess you in trouble now, haha.]
Vincentâs heart quickly raced, and a nervous sweat started forming on his forehead. âI canât have children unless they have mutated blood. Then... they donât want me anymore?â He thought.
âWe had a talk this morning about us. We want to ask about our future and the sharing rules you promised us.â Ester talked as if she was a new woman. Her face had a slight blush instead of her usual bright red blush. It appeared Ester felt more comfortable around Vincent.
â... yes... what do you need to know?â Vincent asked, worried about what could happen. Regrettably, he canât leave this problem for another time like he likes to do.
âWill you have time for us if you have more wives?â Lupa asked first after she kept insisting while chatting with Ester that Vincent would have more mates and that they needed to stay as the top wolves of the pack with their alpha. As if she knew the future and potential of Vincent.
âWill you be with us when we ask?â Ester felt the same after hearing Lupa out. Anyone that knew their secret needed to stay close, and if it was a woman, then what Lupa mentioned could become true. Ester kept this thought in her mind.
[Hmmm... is it going to be a trap, or will a new path to harem is about to open? Well, I would like to see how you handle this situation without my help.]
