Nathan Evenhart:
"Welco back, hubby. How was your day?" Cylla asked, her voice soft as I entered the room.
I froze mid-step.
Hubby?
"It was the usual… boring class, then a eting with the student council…" I murmured, exhausted, as I collapsed onto the bed. I still had an hour of rest before lunch.
She approached, prancing gracefully in her feline form. Her little paws barely made a sound on the wooden floor as she ca toward .
"And how was your day, Cylla?" I asked, watching her snuggle even closer.
"The usual! I slept all day waiting for my love to co back," she replied cheerfully before gently throwing herself on top of and rubbing her face against my chest.
"What are you doing?" I asked, feeling the warmth of her soft fur against .
"Making up for lost ti… and taking in your scent," she said, her voice almost like a purr.
I let her do it, already used to this typical behavior of hers.
Turning to the side to sleep, I noticed that Cylla stopped moving. I guess she realized I wanted to rest.
For a brief mont, everything was silent. But then I felt a slight movent on the bed. When I opened my eyes, there she was again, in my field of vision, her feline eyes glowing intensely as she stared at up close.
"What is it now?"
"Nothing, go ahead and sleep. I'll just… keep watching you," she replied, her tail swaying slightly behind her.
I let out a tired sigh.
"And what about personal boundaries? Where do those co in?"
"They don’t exist! You and I are a couple. Couples don’t have personal boundaries," she countered with a mischievous smile.
I scratched my head, deep in thought.
Damn… she always wins these argunts…
Then, a very specific mory surfaced.
"When I tried to check if you were a girl years ago, you got all flustered. So there are limits, after all!" I teased, sure that I had finally won this debate.
Cylla’s eyes widened in surprise, her fur seeming to bristle slightly. Then, suddenly, she covered her face with her paws, visibly flustered.
"H-hum… that ti… was different… But now… i-if you want… you can look…" she murmured, practically burying herself, her tail covering part of her face.
I rolled my eyes.
"Idiot…" I muttered, throwing a pillow at her.
Cylla jumped back, still hiding her face, and walked toward the door. Using her paw, she skillfully turned the doorknob, opening it.
"Rest well, my love," she said, giggling softly before leaving.
I took a deep breath, burying my face in the pillow.
"She's always like this…" I murmured, accepting my fate as I closed my eyes, finally letting sleep take over.
***
I must have slept for almost an hour when soone woke up. I opened my eyes and saw a beautiful fox girl dressed as a maid.
"Kinue?" I said, still drowsy.
She was kneeling beside my bed, close to , staring.
"Master Nathan…" she said, embarrassed.
"What are you doing?" I asked, sitting up.
She turned red, her ears retracting slightly, and I noticed her tail swaying anxiously.
"Watching you sleep…" she admitted, hiding her face behind a pillow.
I stayed silent.
"It’s fine…" I said, seeing her face grow even redder.
I was already used to Cylla’s weird habits.
"Lunch is ready," she said as she stood up. "I prepared it, so you don’t have to go to the dining hall."
I rubbed my eyes, feeling a bit relieved—I had been too lazy to walk all the way there. I was even considering skipping the rest of my classes.
Kinue sat down on my bed.
"Master Nathan…" she said.
Just as I was about to respond, she suddenly threw herself on top of . I fell back onto the bed, and Kinue ended up straddling . I felt the warmth of her body. She was so close… I could even feel her large breasts pressing against .
"What are you doing?" I asked as she remained silent, just looking at .
She’s really beautiful…
Kinue locked in place with her legs, bringing her face closer to mine. Then, she kissed my cheek.
Damn… my young body full of hormones…
"Kinue… I think you should get off … I can feel that a certain part of —sothing only n have—is starting to go out of control… and it might poke you…"
She stared at and smiled.
"I don’t mind," she whispered in my ear.
One of her hands caressed my face.
"I want to do this with you," she said, blushing. "I want to take the next step."
Kinue leaned in, and I felt her tongue slide across my cheek before she moved closer to my ear. I noticed sothing was off—her hands had claws.
"Kinue… I think sothing’s wrong with you…" I tried to say as she tightened her grip on , but she kept licking my face.
"Everything is normal," she said, trying to kiss .
"No…" I turned my face away. "You’re not like this… Sothing’s wrong."
She locked in even tighter with her legs and bit my neck.
"Kinue…" I tried to say.
"Do you want to see?" she asked, touching her own chest.
She moved even closer, her tongue trailing from my neck to my cheek, stopping near my ear.
"Lunch is ready…" she whispered seductively in my ear. "I am the lunch, Master Nathan."
Sothing inside stirred. Those words hit hard, and I could no longer hold myself back. I grabbed her and threw her onto the bed. She fell, her face burning red. I climbed on top of her, getting closer—at that mont, my hormones were in overdrive.
She stretched out her hands, pulling in even tighter.
"Kinue…" I tried to speak, noticing her face turning an even deeper shade of red. "I can’t do this here…"
Or could I? At that mont, I felt like I was completely at the rcy of my instincts, giving in to temptation.
She pulled in, locking her legs around .
'SLAM!' The door burst open at full speed.
"What is going on here?" a voice shouted as soone burst into the room.
I jumped in shock and saw that it was Chloe and Cylla.
"Chloe…" a very embarrassed Kinue hid her face in the pillow.
I felt like I was caught in the middle of a storm of emotions. I had no idea how to explain myself after being caught on top of Kinue.
I glanced at Kinue, then at Cylla and Chloe, who were staring at with judgntal looks.
"I swear it’s not what it looks like," I tried to say, desperate to get out of this situation. "I can explain."
The two of them looked at , sighed, and then Chloe’s eyes slowly drifted downward—toward my pants. The mont she noticed the… situation, her face turned bright red.
"Your body is telling sothing else!" she said, clearly irritated.
I quickly covered myself with my hand.
"About that… I can’t control physical reactions…" I said, feeling embarrassed.
"We’re going to have a serious talk… Nathan," Cylla said, showing off her small but sharp claws.
***
After taking a few smacks from an angry cat and getting my ear pulled by Chloe, I sat down on the bed beside them. Cylla had left the room at Chloe’s request, and the door was shut.
Kinue looked embarrassed.
"I couldn’t hold myself back… I was just going to tease you a little… but it got out of control. My beastly side… has been wilder since I turned eighteen…" Kinue admitted, clearly ashad.
"Beastly side?" I asked, confused.
Kinue turned even redder.
"You see… every now and then, I’ll have periods where I lose control around my partner… It’s called the ‘mating period,’" she said, hiding her face in a pillow.
I swallowed hard.
Kinue lifted her head slightly.
"Don’t worry, Nathan, I can do it with you every day," she said, trying to correct herself. "But during those periods, I just… want more. That’s all."
Do it every day? Want more?
"And don’t worry, I only get like this with my partner. I only want to do this with you," Kinue said, completely flushed.
Chloe stared at us for a mont before sighing.
"We can’t keep avoiding this conversation anymore," Chloe said. "We need to talk about what we’ve been avoiding… for the sake of this relationship."
I decided to stay quiet.
"It’s not your fault, Kinue," Chloe said. "You don’t need to be embarrassed. This is his fault."
She turned to as she said that, catching off guard.
"My fault? How?"
What? How did I end up being the bad guy? I’ve been trying not to take things too far!
"She’s right, Nathan…" Kinue said.
I was literally just attacked by the predator version of Kinue, and now I’m the guilty one? I’m innocent!
Chloe placed her hand over mine, and I noticed she was blushing. Talking about this kind of thing was clearly embarrassing for both of us.
"You’re always off doing sothing," Chloe said. "You’re always going to buy books, spending entire weekends locked in your room studying scrolls, diving into books about ancient civilizations… You’re always busy ever since we made our relationship official."
She paused, her voice softer.
"I just… wanted a little more attention from my fiancé…"
Kinue lowered her head, then lifted it again, looking straight at .
"She’s right, Nathan. I want to spend more ti with you. During our vacation, when we could have enjoyed ti together… you took that mission without even asking for our opinion," Kinue said. "Those were days we lost you…"
I thought about my argunt, but before I could speak, Kinue continued.
"I know it was for a good cause… it was even kind of romantic," Kinue admitted, blushing. "But I don’t care about the ring if it ans my boyfriend has to be away from ."
I looked at both of them and, honestly… I hadn’t communicated with them about accepting that mission.
I sighed internally.
"I’m sorry… Lately, I’ve been worried about a few things, and I really haven’t been giving you the attention you deserve."
Both of them placed a hand on my shoulder.
"If sothing is troubling you, just talk to us," Chloe said. "We are both your fiancées."
I swallowed hard, feeling the weight of those words.
Over the past year, I had been obsessed with what I discovered about the mural I read—about Nikolaus Wolves, about the Darkness, about the one-eyed man surrounded by phoenixes, about the man with the hamr fighting Jörmungandr… I ended up spending so much ti focused on those things that I forgot to pay attention to what truly mattered.
"Chloe and Kinue," I thought, then made my decision.
"I want to take the next step with both of you," I said.
They both instantly recoiled, each getting flustered in their own way. Kinue covered her face with a pillow, and Chloe turned her blushing face to the side.
"After this academy expedition, I’ll set up a date with each of you… and then we’ll take the next step, turning this into an 'adult' relationship," I said.
Without giving them a chance to react, I quickly kissed Chloe, pulled the pillow away, and kissed Kinue as well.
"It’s a promise," I said before leaving the room.
Chloe Evenhart:
Nathan had left the room about five minutes ago, but the two of us remained frozen in shock. My mind was a whirlwind of emotions, and when I glanced to the side, Kinue was completely red.
"He kissed …" she murmured, running her fingers over her lips.
"He kissed too…" I admitted, feeling embarrassed.
She let out a small giggle and hugged a pillow.
"I'm too embarrassed to take the next step with him…" she muttered.
I stared at her for a mont before flicking her forehead.
"I didn’t see any embarrassnt when you said, ‘I am the lunch, Master Nathan,’" I teased.
Kinue instantly turned bright red.
"Y-you heard that…? How?" she asked, flustered.
"I had my ear against the door and used wind magic to pull the sound through the keyhole," I said.
She threw the pillow at .
"That’s cheating, Chloe!" she yelled, both angry and mortified. "I was being influenced by hormones…"
"Hahaha," I laughed, tossing the pillow back at her. "You have enhanced hearing because of your race, but I can find my own ways too," I said, grinning.
She pulled onto the bed and started hitting with the pillow, her face still burning with embarrassnt. I just laughed at her.
"Next ti, ask ‘Master Nathan’ to put up a wind barrier," I teased, pushing her off and leaving as she curled up in sha.
