Legendary Awakening: Harem System In The Post-Apocalyptic World Chapter 78: Becoming Closer

"Ah!" Emily felt as if she was electrocuted—she shrieked and pulled her hand back, her heart pounding.

"You alright?" Max asked in concern, a hint of smile in his eyes.

"I... Yeah." Emily nodded before she lowered her head, her other hand clutching her gown and thigh, and whispered, "I think I... need more ti."

Hearing this, Max gently tilted her chin up with his fingers, making her look at him and said in a soothing tone, "You take as much ti as you need. There is no need to rush. I’m not going away, nor I will let you get away from ."

Emily stared into his eyes and noticing the possessive glint within them, she felt her heart skip a beat. Then, she strangely felt warm and fuzzy inside and relaxed a lot.

"Mm. Thank you, Max." She smiled.

"There is no need for it, Mom." Max said and she felt a shiver run down her spine at the address, but before she could think too much about it and feel conflicted again, she felt Max tighten his grip around her waist and say:

"We are family. We are supposed to take care of each other, no?"

"Mm." Emily distractedly nodded.

Seeing this, Max smiled, leaned over and softly kissed her cheek before saying, "Also, I want to apologize for my past behaviour. I know you only wanted my best, but I didn’t see it, beca rebellious and didn’t listen to you."

Emily looked at him with a complex look in her eyes which she then closed, took a breath, opened them and said, "It’s alright, Max. I understand. Teenagers do that."

Pausing for a mont, she hesitatingly added, "Is it really alright? I an your father might still be alive and he probably won’t like it when he cos back."

Following her words, Max stared at her expressionlessly for a few seconds which made her uneasy.

She bit her lower lip, and averted his gaze, regretting ntioning this.

After a few monts, she heard him say, his voice comparatively colder, "No need to worry. You are free to speak your mind and I won’t get angry for it, ever. With that said, yes, it’s perfectly fine for multiple reasons.

First, you know he hasn’t been a particularly good father to , Sophie and Natalie or a husband to you.

Second, he isn’t here and I’m the man of the house. Whatever I say goes.

Third, though it doesn’t an much to , we aren’t blood-related.

Fourth, I want you and I say fuck everything else. He and everyone else have to accept it because if they don’t, well... it won’t change anything and would only make angry."

After he finished speaking, he began eating with his free hand, letting her sort out her thoughts.

After a short while, Emily raised her head and stared at him for a mont before she nodded, "I understand."

Then without saying anything more, she shifted in his lap, took the tray of food, leaned against his chest, put the tray on her lap and began feeding him again.

Max couldn’t help but look at her in surprise for a mont, but then he thought, ’I guess this is the difference between grown-ups and young people, huh?’

"Here, say aaa~" Emily said with a smile, bringing a bite to his mouth. Max smiled and opened his mouth. And this ti, he didn’t lick her fingers.

"Is it still delicious?" She asked, a small grin on her lips.

"Of course, it is. Though not as much." Max grinned back.

"This kid... Did you spend all your ti cooped up in your room, learning all this on the internet?" She asked.

Max stared at her silently which made her smile in embarrassnt, "Okay.. Okay. I’m not going to lecture you about it again."

"I would like that." Max nodded while putting his other hand around her. While Emily tried to act normal, he slightly pushed down on his lap, pressing her soft and wide, motherly bottom on his thighs and rapidly stiffening crotch.

Though Emily still acted oblivious, a soft blush had appeared on her face, making her look, under the soft glow of a lamp, incredibly beautiful.

If he wasn’t eating, he would have surely cupped her face and kissed her tender lips.

As Emily began breaking another piece of bread for him, he put his face in the crook of her neck, took a deep breath, inhaling her womanly scent, and said, "I haven’t told you that you look incredibly charming in this gown, have I?"

"N-no. You have not." Emily said, feeling shy but happy too.

Max turned her face toward him and while looking at her, he said, "You have always been incredibly attractive and sexy, but tonight, you look even more amazing, even more hot~"

At the end, his voice beca husky, thick with desire.

Emily’s heart began to beat faster and she began to feel nervous once again, but this ti, she didn’t avert her gaze because she was also feeling a sense of anticipation.

What Max had said about John not being a good husband was true. Ever since they got married, she could count the number of tis they had been intimate on the fingers of one hand with room to spare.

But she didn’t ever complain because she hadn’t married him for intimacy.

Her main reason was to give her young daughters a father figure, soone who could take care of and protect them.

It didn’t, however, an that she didn’t desire so companionship and intimacy. Unfortunately, John could give it to her and her heart didn’t give her permission to be unfaithful because her previous marriage was ruined because her husband had cheated on her.

So... she had been suppressing her needs and desires.

Now, however, with her having made up her mind and Max desiring her so much, she didn’t need to suppress them anymore. She could let go and experience everything she missed out on.

Seeing Max leaned over to her, she slowly closed her eyes and slightly puckered her lips.

However...

Tap!

"Ouch!" She cried out and rubbed her forehead while looking at him with an aggrieved and embarrassed look in her eyes because Max had flicked her and was now looking at her with a teasing look in his.

"What was that for?" She asked, glaring at him.

"Aren’t you forgetting sothing?" Max questioned.

"What?" She asked.

Max pointed to his mouth and said, "You were feeding ."

"Ah, yes. Sorry I got lost in thoughts." She hurriedly said, trying to cover up her embarrassnt.

"Is that so?" Max grinned, finding her more adorable and for the first ti, he felt his decision to not take her imdiately wasn’t wrong. Because this way, he could get to know her better and probably create so feelings which would sweeten their relationship even more.

Of course, he would still enjoy her really well if he were to take her now because of the nature of their relationship, but he knew the sa might not be true for her. After all, not everyone could be a degenerate pervert like him.

’Hm? I haven’t checked her status yet.’ He suddenly rembered and while she resud feeding him, he activated the [Discerning Eyes].

’...Wow!’ He exclaid in his heart when he saw her information screen.
