Madelyn’s cute and excited expression makes Lucien want to start stroking her ears imdiately.
Still, he wouldn’t do anything and would treat her very respectfully. Lucien couldn’t deny that he was interested in Madelyn first because of her excellent wind affinity.
All he does is thinking for the sake of his family, and of course, his main objective now is to beco stronger to rescue his mother. And he needs to do it fast.
So, Lucien was very direct with Madelyn. "Madelyn, my intention in telling you all of that is because, different from the girls who join my troops, I have a special proposal for you."
Madelyn couldn’t contain her excitent. She exclaid out excitedly. "What is it?"
Lucien made an apologetic expression. "It’s like I told you the other day. I beca interested in you first because of your wind affinity. I will need to be traveling by sea to different places, and I would like you to accompany to increase the speed of my ship."
Madelyn understood that Lucien was basically saying he wanted to use her. Of course, she would gain a lot by traveling with him as well as getting stronger.
But Madelyn was pleased that he was frank with her. Still, what made her even happier and more excited was the fact that he specifically said that FIRST was interested in her because of her wind affinity. So, she concluded that there was sothing more, and she can’t help but feel excited about it.
"I understand. But how exactly would that work?" Madelyn was still a little confused even though she already had ideas of what he was suggesting.
Lucien was straightforward again. "As I explained, I already have s.e.x sotis with my troops, and I give them my essence. I will also do this with the new girls who agree to join my troops."
"But this system is what I can do additionally while my main focus is in my wives who receive the greatest benefits."
"I could focus on troops with wind affinity, and achieve my goal. But I would prefer to bring you into my family, and focus only on you as a wind mage, so you would beco strong very fast. That way you would be the only wind mage on my ship, while the other mages would go with the sh.i.p.s with my troops that will follow at a slower speed."
Madelyn was analyzing every word from Lucien carefully. It all seed so good, but then she realized what he ant by bringing her into his family.
The cute cat-girl blushed more than ever before while she couldn’t even speak properly. "T-that... that’s m-an... Lucien... it ... really?"
Lucien smiled at her. "I wish I could say that we could just have s.e.x to make you strong and help . But for you to have access to all of the benefits I can guarantee you, we would need to have a soul connection."
"And after that, I won’t be able to let you leave anymore because I am very possessive. So if you accept it, you will be accepting to beco my wife and live with from now on."
"Becoming your w... wife?!?! This... This is very sudden... I... Lucien..." Madelyn’s feelings were completely out of her control while she didn’t know what to think.
Lucien made an apologetic expression. "This is my fault. I have a terrible habit of rushing things. It’s just that I don’t have ti to waste, and I always end up going straight to the point and ignoring so things."
Madelyn couldn’t think well now, but she knew that this is an incredible opportunity for soone like her who only has friends, to join a real family.
Still, it was not easy to accept marrying soone she didn’t know so well even though he is her idol.
But she saw Lucien’s expression and thought he could take back his proposal. "Lucien, I... I just-"
Lucien knew that Madelyn needed ti to think about his proposal. He just wanted to make it clear to be fair to her. "Okay, Madelyn. I’m going to give you ti to think about it, and you can give your answer later."
"I ACCEPT!" Madelyn exclaid.
"Huh?" Lucien couldn’t help being confused; after all, no one expected that reaction from her.
Madelyn quickly explained. "I an, I do, I really want to travel the world with you and be part of your family... as your wife, but..."
Lucien saw Madelyn’s expression beco sad for the first ti she arrived at the castle. She also made that expression the day he t her at the Guild.
He did not like to see that sad expression on her face as well as on the face of any of his wives and troops.
Lucien instinctively moved his hand gently over Madelyn’s hand on the table and stroked it. "It’s alright, Madelyn. I won’t let anything bad happen to you."
Madelyn liked Lucien’s gentle touch. Her fingers instinctively caressed his hand as she spoke. "I couldn’t overco a trauma... That’s why I don’t leave the city and work in the Guild as an attendant."
"Hmm..." Lucien couldn’t help but be sad for her. "Can you tell more about this trauma?"
Madelyn didn’t like to talk about it, but because Lucien was so honest with her, she wanted to be honest with him too.
"I... Well, I was an orphan in the Alliance cat-clan. Our clan is one of the smallest, and I didn’t want to be a servant of another family and live a boring life."
"That’s why I left the Alliance with a group of people who ca to Portgreen. Here people were re-starting their lives away from the problems of the Alliance."
"Our group couldn’t afford a ship ticket, so we traveled through the great forest..." Madelyn’s look beca even sadder, so Lucien gently squeezed her hand, making the cat-girl quickly smile.
Then she continued. "The great forest is ho to many dangers like venomous plants and wild beasts, but nothing is as wicked as the damned racists of the Light Empire."
Lucien couldn’t help being angry at the Light Empire again as he could already predict what Madelyn would say. He and his family would never get along with people like them or the Silver Legion from his howorld.
Madelyn continued her story avoiding details of cruelty that would only make her suffer. "We found a group of scouts from the Light Empire. My group was made of young and not very powerful people who were like , looking to start new lives."
"They had no rcy and massacred us... I managed to escape, or rather, they let go after making watch them kill all of my friends."
"Their captain... he was a monstrous man. He said that he wanted to send a ssage to my people; that I tell everyone what would happen to all demi-humans."
"Also... he said he would be delighted that I would always have nightmares from everything I saw that day, and that I would never be a normal person again."
Madelyn lowered her head. "And he was right. I... I am a broken person. I am terrified to leave the city and go through dangerous situations."
"Sorry, but I can’t hold myself anymore," Lucien spoke, leaving Madelyn confused.
Before she could understand what had happened, he pulled her by the hand over the table and hugged her tightly.
Madelyn didn’t know if it was because she was very emotionally shaken or if it was because she was so attracted to Lucien that her body felt no aversion to his.
In fact, she was feeling very comfortable in his arms. His sll was wonderful, and the heat of his body made her calm.
Lucien tenderly kissed Madelyn’s head and did not take advantage of the situation to attack her ears as he very much wanted.
"You are not a broken girl, Madelyn. We all have our traumas, and when we fail to overco them, we have to learn to live with them."
"Mm." Madelyn agreed while sniffing Lucien’s chest. "But, because of that, I don’t think I can travel with you."
Lucien continued to pat her head. "Well, I can’t change your past or heal your trauma, but if you accept the soul connection I talked about, I’ll be able to give you a ho where you’ll always be safe and never need to leave, well, maybe just to help with the ship, but only if you want to, of course."
"House?" Madelyn asked.
"Yes, the special space treasure where my wives and I live." Lucien gave her a quick explanation of the purple world.
Madelyn was fascinated with the house in the purple world. She almost couldn’t believe it because it seed so perfect and would be the solution to her problems.
She could travel with Lucien anywhere, and when she got scared, she could stay in the purple world, and she would still be with Lucien. So it would be very easy for her to help him with the ship.
The idea of becoming Lucien’s wife, getting strong quickly, and being able to live in the purple world, made Madelyn very excited again. She smiled as the sadness of the bad mories were brushed away by Lucien’s kind pats on her head.
Madelyn giggled. "You can touch them."
Lucien laughed. "How long have you known I want to touch them."
"Since you saw for the first ti when you arrived at the Guild with Jeanne," Madelyn replied.
"How? Is it that obvious?" Lucien asked.
Madelyn giggled again. "Well, I’ve seen a lot of people throughout my life giving that kind of look. So I learned to notice when soone looks directly at them."
Since Lucien had Madelyn’s permission, he started to move his hand slowly towards her fluffy ear, but he stopped when he heard her next words.
"But, I never let anyone touch them."
"Why?" Lucien asked confusedly.
Madelyn quickly explained. "We cat-girls have an old tradition of just letting our husbands pet our ears. Although I left my clan, I wanted to keep that tradition."
"I see." Lucien understood then asked, "So that ans..."
Madelyn blushed as she whispered and hid her face on Lucien’s chest. "I already gave you my answer, and I will not change it."
Lucien understood that Madelyn was talking about when she said she accepted to be his wife.
He slowly moved his hands again towards her ear. "If I do it... it will an that you will be mine forever. Are you sure about that? I can give you more ti to think."
"Do it." Madelyn had no doubts that being with Lucien would be incredible in every way, so she didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
So Lucien did what he so badly wanted to do for a long ti... He laid his hand on Madelyn’s cute ear.
"Mm!!" Just the first contact of Lucien’s hands with Madelyn’s ear made her m.o.a.n softly.
There was a reason for the tradition that the cat-girls only let their husbands touch their ears; that is, it is a very sensitive area for them.
Lucien was surprised because the texture of Madelyn’s ears was much softer than he expected. They are really incredibly fluffy.
And the best part was not the perfect texture, but the fact that they twitch while he stroked them, showing that Madelyn was pleased with his touch.
"Mmmmmm... This is so good... If you touch them that much I will go crazy..." Madelyn continued trying to hide her flushed face on Lucien’s warm and fragrant chest as she m.o.a.ned.
Her ears were so cute, and her m.o.a.ns were cute, all of her reactions were so cute and adorable that Lucien thought he could die of cuteness.
While he continued to lose himself in Madelyn’s cuteness, L.u.s.t, Rose, and Jeanne rolled their eyes as they felt like they were being ignored.
Since the table was in the garden, not far from Lucien’s troops, and the girls from the L group. They had already stopped talking and were all watching Lucien petting the cute cat-girl in his arms.
Everyone could describe the scene in the sa way.
So cute!!!
