*** Yuki, shortly after Alzi left the brothel ***
"YOU DIDN'T TELL HER?!" Kelly screams.
"No, it wouldn't change anything. Alzi just would've been sad and depressed. That's bad for her and the kids. The stupid collar wi..."
"IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE!" she interrupts . "You could've told her your plan. Prepared her so she wouldn't be absolutely destroyed walking out of here. Her collar was shocking her the entire ti to get her to move! You had four months to say sothing. I trusted you would do it. Hell, you could've bought her years ago. You just wanted her to be a breeder without any of the consequences. You wanted her to love you, knowing she would look past the fact you're a princess who could've saved her the second you loved her. Fucking greedy bitch."
"I have my people to think about as well," I say. "Alzi is now in nearly the perfect state to help my people."
"Then you would've spread your legs decades ago. No, you just had yourself in mind. You wasted the years you were ant to find a husband, so now you know you need to co back with sothing big."
"Girls! Neither of you could've told ? Both of you kept in the dark for what reason?" Mai asks.
"Yuki was supposed to tell you and Alzi about this. Don't bla for thinking a friend would tell you."
"It happened the way I thought it was best. Now, if you want in, you can co along. Otherwise, goodbye," I say.
"Put my shit in your ring. I'm not rich enough to get that," Kelly demands, turning to go to her old room.
"Demanding I work for you after that? Handle your own shit."
"No, you'll pick it up. What you've done here at the brothel is terrible and annoying. So you're going to co take my shit. Drop it off at your house then we are going to get married. From here on out, you're going to have the Goddess pressuring you to behave for the good of Alzi."
"Oh, and you know what is best for Alzi?"
"Better than you, apparently," she says with a slam of her door.
"Yuki, just go get her stuff. A marriage wouldn't be a bad idea. Wives don't always love each other, just the main girl. Co on, you know Alzi wants her around," Mai asks . "We're making a scene, well, more of one than Alzi did earlier. Co on, we need to go."
We are in the middle of the back rooms. Every girl waiting for the doors to open is currently watching our little fight.
"Fine. Do you have your stuff?" I ask, turning to follow the damn healer.
"Yes, the Countess gave a small ring. Now hurry; we need to drop our stuff off, get married, and then go pick up Alzi's Mother."
I give out a short huff and continue my short walk into Kelly's room.
"What do you want to keep?" I ask her.
"This pile here and then this one as well," the healer says, carrying over a large pile of dresses, robes, and undergarnts. "I've got one more pile of clothing to take. Working in a brothel didn't let hoard too many things."
"Fine," I say, pulling in the random assortnt of cookware, potion kits, and knickknacks. I wait for Kelly to bring the second pile before taking all her clothing and walking out. Kelly follows behind as we pick up Mai and walk out just as the crowd starts walking in.
I hear murmurs about Mai and leaving. Kelly was never really known outside of the brothel girls. But I'm sure the girls will miss her and Alzi.
Outside, we walk down the block to a small carriage I booked to take us to my house. We'll have to just walk to the village; no carriage big enough for six is going to book such a trip. Maybe Naku is back and she can teleport us so of the way.
Once I set Nakuma straight in the forest, she beca a good girl and started adventuring with a warrior she picked up. I'll have to join her when they finish their current assignnt.
It'll be fun to travel again, I really was stuck in that room basically for too long. Get away from Kelly for a bit. Test the water with Nakuma and see if getting fucked truly did calm her down.
"We're ready," I call out to the driver once Mai and Kelly sit down opposite of .
"So what happens now?" Kelly asks.
"You, Mai, and Alzi's mother and wives sit at ho while , Nakuma, and the warrior she found go out and kill stuff," I say.
"Are we sure that's a good idea? You ca back nearly dead every ti you went out the last ti you tried that," she says.
"It'll be monsters and assassinations with less of a ti pressure."
"Sure, sure. I guess we can count on Nakuma unless you chase her away again."
"Stop it. Just shut up, you two. I'm not going to deal with fighting, so figure it out. You both failed Alzi and . So be nice or be quiet when I'm around. Her Mother better not find out about this. She'll never trust us knowing we caused her daughter that much distress," Mai says.
We follow her request, letting the rest of the ride be quiet. Just the shaking of the carriage down the stone road.
"We've arrived!" the driver calls back to us.
"Thank you," Mai says back, opening the door and stepping out. I quickly follow her and move to open my house.
"Mai, your room should still be set up. Kelly can choose from the rest. Alzi's Mother's family can have the last two rooms. I think they'll be used to sharing a bit," I say. Mai walks off, and I follow Kelly to the last room on my side. I dump her clothing on the bed and the rest on the floor then head out to the living room to wait for them to co back. It really seems like we'll be spending the night in the village since Nakuma isn't ho today.
I should write her a note so she doesn't run off while we're walking back.
Mai's pregnant figure is the first to join . Kelly doesn't take long after that to walk in.
"Now, you all said to get married, but I can't. Mine is to be done in my realm with my husband," I say.
"I don't believe you," Kelly snaps back, walking out the door.
"I have a patron Goddess. She has rules!" I shout back.
"Princesses always get the special shit," she says, storming back in.
"How do you even know I'm a princess?" I ask.
"You're quite famous among the elderly," Kelly says.
"Hmm, well, yes. Royalty gets privileges. Don't like it? Too bad. Last month wasn't the first ti I've been on the brink of death. I've done that often, gaining my classes. Getting the most power I can. I'm expected to beco a powerful woman. So, all that work gets a few nice things," I tell her. "Now, let's start walking. We have a lot of work to do and two pregnant won traveling. Let's do this with so light, ok."
Kelly just stord out again. I walked over to help Mai up, and we went to join the healer outside.
Once more, we start to travel in silence. The vampire standing between and Kelly. Hoping to keep us from yelling more out in the open.
We make our way through the afternoon crowd making our way to the gate. Everyone makes way for my whitetails and gives them a little stare before continuing on with their day. I don't draw a crowd like I would for my stupid marches, luckily. Though I'm sure the extra attention would piss off Kelly even more.
With a mostly free path forward, we make good ti getting to the gate. Not many are looking to go outside at this ti. You could only make it to the small villages before nightfall, so only so workers are leaving now. The rchants will leave in the morning.
The guards let us through without question. Just a quick glance before waving us on.
We pick up the pace a bit on the wide road. There is plenty of room for carriages and rchandise to fit through until they get to the narrow street past the gate and into the city. Not that there are many out right now. Just a small line heading to the city stopped at the entrance.
We continue the trip in silence, each of us a bit nervous about how her Mother will take the news. Maybe I should've just told her Mother and had her figure out how to tell Alzi. She can just tickle Alzi a bit and get the silly dragon to smile for a week.
I still can't believe my biggest fight for my Lover's heart is her mom.
While not unheard of, this nation has a long practice of the Queen joining a daughter's harem; it is rare for a commoner without an affinity to get into her daughter's harem.
I'll win out. I'll just have to play into Alzi's breeder's feelings. I'll let her really knock up. Match her dozen or sothing. Making Alzi stick by my side for nine months, and she'll be mine, as I deserve.
First, though, is getting married to her.
"What are you three doing?" a guard yells out from their small walls.
"I'm Going into the village," I say back, walking up to the wooden gate. "Open up!"
"What business do you have here?" she asks instead.
"Sleeping. Now, don't make jump it. We're tired and still have a number of things to do before we get to sleep."
"I dare you to jump it!"
I use a bit of mana and do as I was asked, bringing Mai and Kelly with . I keep heading towards the center of the town. We'll need to ask for directions to Armirynth's house.
"You can't go any farther!" the guards say, not yet ready to give up on her little wall.
"Look, if we wanted to hurt anyone, we could, and there isn't a thing you can do about it. You wouldn't even know I was here," I say, giving off the illusion of walking down a random road. "See, now I want to know where Armirynth lives. So either tell or go back to watching the wall. It's been a long day."
"Few streets that way. Akhae should be walking ho soon. You should be able to follow her if you hurry," a passerby says. The guard still trying to figure out what to do about .
"Thank you," I say to the new woman before heading off in the direction she pointed.
We don't catch Akhae walking, but Armirynth is waiting outside and perks up when she sees my tails.
"Why are you standing out here?" Mai asks, running into her arms.
"It happened, right?" she says, doing her best to hug with the bellies getting in the way. "My baby was taken farther away?"
"Yes, how did you know?" I ask, coming up to the pregnant won.
"Inside, please. I'll explain there."
