Chapter 464: Growing Hunger
Above the sea, east of Portgreen, the stone ships fly eastward. And on the main ship, Lucien relaxes on a large sofa with his girls, enjoying the view. Naked, naturally.
On his lap is Rose now, enjoying her turn with pats, kisses, and everything else she\'s entitled to. And despite being smiling, she can\'t hide her concerns from Lucien.
Then, while both of them think about the same person, she appears majestic, beautiful, and with a charming smile, as always. Daisy, of course.
She walks to the front of the sofa while her eyes are fixed on Lucien and Rose. In her hands, there is a bag and a glass bottle filled with a green liquid.
"Ahem." She makes a sound to get attention as they seem very focused on touching and kissing each other. In fact, she can\'t stop looking at their lips touching and their hands caressing each other.
For some reason, that makes her uncomfortable, and at the same time, it arouses those energies in the deepest part of her body, her Blood Nascent.
"Oh, Daisy, my beloved mother-in-law." Lucien stops kissing Rose and smiles at her.
But Rose doesn\'t stop kissing his face and caressing his cock. She doesn\'t want to think about possible problems, and only the pleasure Lucien gives her leaves her mind blank and her body totally relaxed.
"I finished this... well, it\'s not much, but it\'s the best I can do now, and..." Daisy starts talking as she shows him the bottle; however, Rose\'s actions make her increasingly uncomfortable.
"AHEM!!" She makes an even louder sound and frowns, clearly trying to get Rose\'s attention.
Lucien realizes that Rose is acting strangely toward her mother. Due to the deep connections they have, he can understand that she fears Daisy will hurt her father. She fears that just being around him will be enough to change the mature vampire\'s feelings, ruining her marriage.
And despite knowing that it wouldn\'t be Lucien\'s or Daisy\'s fault, Rose can\'t help but be angry. She loves her father and doesn\'t want to see him end up like all men who get in the way of the Handsome Devil.
But not knowing what to do yet, Lucien kisses Rose\'s forehead and gets up from the sofa as he materializes clothes. Going for something more casual and comfortable, he makes baggy leather pants, leather boots, and an open leather jacket, which reveal his whole incredibly sexy chest.
"Let me see it." He speaks as he picks up the bottle of green liquid and walks to the edge of the ship.
Rose looks at Lucien\'s back as she pouts, and Daisy looks at her and shakes her head. "Spoiled girl..."
Then she walks after Lucien as he analyzes the liquid in the bottle. He can feel life energy coming from that liquid, which is very similar to a healing potion like those he made using an ingredient that only he has.
"Will this work?" He asks.
She nods. "Yes. I made as many as I could with the life crystals you gave me. These potions will prevent people from being influenced by the life crystals inside the mine for a week."
"Great." Lucien smiles at her. "It\'ll be nice to leave some troops mining while we go to your house; we can\'t waste time while my sisters are out there alone."
Daisy can\'t help but like Lucien more and more. No matter how strong he is or how many things are going on around him, he is always thinking o his family\'s sake.
"We won\'t be long there. I just need to get a few things, and we can go back to the mine and remove all the crystals until we free the portal." She explains.
Lucien looks at her with a thoughtful expression. "It\'s okay if you need some time to convince your husband to come with us."
Daisy makes a confused expression. "What do you mean by coming with us?"
"You\'re coming with us to Blue Star, right?" He sarcastically asks because it\'s obvious she\'s already determined to do that. "So I thought it would be natural for him to come with us to be with you."
She looks back at Rose. But of course, she could hear their conversation if she wanted to, yet she\'s not doing it; she\'s talking to the other girls.
Still, Daisy speaks to Lucien in a softer tone. "I don\'t think he would want to go to another world. I mean, he\'s the right hand of the King of our nation and has a lot of responsibilities... the people need him, and..."
"Is the people more important than his family?" Lucien asks. "I mean, we\'re going to another world; this isn\'t like a tour in another country or anything like that."
Daisy doesn\'t know how to explain to Lucien about Heike\'s \'patriotic\' personality. Also, for her, it\'s also not comfortable to have someone weak like him by her side all the time as that would be more problematic than pleasurable.
"Why do you care so much about it?" She asks.
"Sorry if I sound nosy." He comments. "Well, you know, this journey could turn out to be longer than we expected. My sisters are in that world just like the phoenix, so I\'m not going back without them, even if it takes months or years."
"I don\'t think that would be a problem..." Daisy doesn\'t see that as a problem because she no longer feels any desire to be around Heike.
Lucien notices the sad glow in her eyes and is sorry for her. "Well, I shouldn\'t intrude on your relationship; I just want the best for Rose and for you too, Daisy."
"I\'m sure you\'re looking forward to telling him how you are now healed." He continues. "You\'re going to need to drink blood more often now, right? That\'s one more reason for you to have a partner willing to make a Blood Pact with you."
Several things come to Daisy\'s mind as she reflects on Lucien\'s words. She feels her bloodlust growing more and more, even than it was before if she had suffered that damage in her Blood Nascent.
And she doesn\'t think that\'s negative. It\'s normal for a vampire to like blood, and she\'s not ashamed of that. But she knows Heike never liked that part of her. And she has no desire to tell him that the vampire side of her is stronger than ever.
She also agrees with Lucien that her partner must be willing to make a Blood Pact with her; after all, that is one of her most basic needs. Yet, she doesn\'t think Heike will be willing to do it, or even if she wants it anymore.
Still, she doesn\'t want to make those thoughts clear so as not to hurt Rose\'s feelings. So, she smiles at Lucien. "You\'re right; I\'m going to talk to him about it."
"After all, if I leave him alone for too long, he might find a woman more beautiful than me and abandon me." She laughs, clearly hiding her true feelings.
Lucien sighs as he approaches her. Then he puts a hand on her shoulder. "That\'s impossible..."
"..." Daisy blushes as she thinks he\'s praising her by saying that it\'s impossible for Heike to find a woman more beautiful than her.
But then she gets a little disappointed with his next words. "You know, you have been married for so long and have a daughter, so I don\'t think something like that could mess up your marriage."
"Yea, sure…" She comments as she walks to the edge of the ship and looks at the horizon. "Don\'t worry about that; I\'ll solve it out."
Then she gets surprised when she feels him approach her from behind and bump his hand on her arm. [What is he doing????]
Daisy starts to imagine many things but again feels silly when all Lucien does is take the bag of bottles off her hand.
"I\'m going to need it." He comments in an amused tone. He knows how his actions can influence women, but he can\'t resist teasing them sometimes.
"Certainly." She quickly comments while not looking at him. She definitely doesn\'t want him to see her embarrassed expression. "I won\'t bother you more."
Lucien smiles as he speaks in a loving tone. "You never bother me, mother-in-law."
Then he walks back to the girls, but he speaks again after walking a few meters. "If you need anything, just let me know. I\'m always willing to help you."
Daisy\'s lips curve into a beautiful smile as she shakes her head, not knowing why.
She tries to think of her husband, but every second she spends with Lucien, seeing how he treats their wives, makes Heike\'s actions look worse.
He\'s not a bad husband. In fact, he always treated her very well. But Lucien treats all his wives like Queens. He pays attention to all their feelings and is always by their side to make them feel better, protected, more special, more loved…
[Why am I thinking these things????] Daisy starts banging her forehead against the edge of the ship.
Meanwhile, Lucien goes back to his girls and spends some more time with them before flying to the other ships and giving those life mana potions to a hundred troops.
He also gives those one hundred women an extra shot of special milk and a brief moment of pleasure as a reward for leaving them mining while his group heads to the eastern continent, where Daisy\'s house is.
But when thinking about that, he gets a little concerned. He and his girls had to fight mutant sharks the last time they went to that mine, so he fears there might be other dangers lurking in that area.
"Do you think we should leave more troops in the mine?" Eve asks Lucien while he is commenting on that.
"Maybe some of the stronger girls should stay too." Pride comments.
Lucien doesn\'t feel good about separating from the girls. He knows bad things can happen anytime while he\'s away from his loved wives. Also, he doesn\'t want to stop strengthening them as the opponents they face always seem to be getting more dangerous.
As he thinks about that, Sophia flies towards him and hugs him from behind. "Sloth and I talked about it, and although I don\'t want to leave your side, I think I\'d better stay and wait for you here."
He caresses and kisses her arm. "Are you sure about it?"
"Yea." She answers and then explains. "I\'ve been getting stronger very quickly with you, but Sloth thinks we shouldn\'t miss the chance to sleep inside a life crystal mine. That will be very beneficial to my life, mana, and our demonic energy will prevent any negative effects."
Sloth materializes her body and nods. "So we can take care of the troops here too."
Lucien is totally confident of Sophia and Sloth\'s abilities, so he might be more relaxed than he would be by leaving some of his less powerful wives there. Yet, he looks at Eve with a thoughtful expression.
"Alright, I\'ll wait here with Sophia." Eve smiles.
"Great. That way, I can go without worrying so much." He comments and then turns around and starts kissing Sophia\'s lips. "But I\'m still going to be upset about being away from my love."
"I will miss you so much, so don\'t take too long!" She speaks while kissing his face several times.
As they create a small world of their own, Lust interrupts to advise him. "I think the same goes for Ghilanna and Ghalenna. The raw energy of mystic crystals doesn\'t do much good even for people with that affinity. Still, your demonic energy inside them prevents negative effects, so staying with Sophia inside the mine can be very beneficial for them as well."
The elven mother and daughter pair pout as they think about getting away from Lucien. But on the other hand, they are excited to get stronger and be able to help him even more.
Lucien doesn\'t really like to be apart from his loved ones, but the group splits again as he heads to the continent known as the Freelands. The plan is to take a quick journey until there and an even quicker one to come back.
