Chapter 509: Family Decisions
By the ti we had returned upstairs, everyone was already sitting at the table snacking on various fruits and pieces of bread, waiting for Renna, Rhefia and I to join them all and get the discussions back under way.
Looking around at the crowded house, I just had to smile wryly as I wondered if it was ti to expand again, and if I did expand, should it be up, down, or to the sides..?
Or all three?
Taking a seat and accepting Aka and Ehretia from Camara, I allowed the two to begin suckling before smiling gently at Renna beside , who gingerly accepted Ipoala and stared at the pink Robinkin for a few monts before doing the sa, much to the lustful amusent of everyone else at the table.
Yiksa was watching
before turning to stare at out daughter, who was leaning into the side of Inik, the Hawkkin who had quite the smug smirk on her face as she sliced an apple up and fed both herself and Kalia, the Dark Elf happily munching on the slices that were brought straight to her mouth.
Prixisia was also peeking at Inik semi often, and just like with Yiksa there was wariness and slight annoyance in her orange eyes as she did so, while her crossed arms and occasional flick of her forked tongue made
wonder if I needed to worry about her being inside the alchemy room for the foreseeable future...
Other than those two giving Inik odd glances, Camara and Heila watched Renna with small smiles, observing how the Duchess held the Robinkin close to her breast and comforted her whenever she looked for her sisters, who were happily clinging to my chest.
Aethisia was also watching, but not with the sa pure intentions as her wife and the Doe; she was sitting beside Sari and staring hungrily at our breasts, clearly wanting to partake in our milk as well and give us so of theirs.
Finally, Shelur was seated with a tankard in hand, which she was nursing at the mont and looking around at everyone, ntally taking note of who was who and how everyone acted; when Rhefia took a seat beside her, the Orc narrowed her eyes and appraised the warrior beside her, only to et Rhea's amber gaze and frown when Rhefia smirked at her.
"Well, I think we should start with the smaller, less important things... if I may, of course..?"
Renna looked at
hesitantly, her voice trailing off as she waited for permission to speak - and as I took in her red cheeks and clear awkwardness at needing to request to speak, I couldn't help but smile and nod, allowing her to continue.
"I heard from Astra that you enjoy carving things, Camara? Would you be interested in eting my sister and working alongside her to carve sothing for the Domus Stella? The winery that I wanted to open and stock with the wines Astra makes."
Camara was surprised at this offer of Renna's, and I just kept my smile as I sat back and remained quiet, letting my eldest decide for herself what she wanted to do, and how to do it; she recognized that and glanced at Aethisia, who just shrugged and leaned back in her chair as well, leaving it up to her older sister and mate.
"Work to carve... what exactly?"
"A statue of Tenatra, the Goddess of Wine who bestowed the world her splendid liquid of fernted grape to help stop a war. We were thinking of having a statue of her 'pouring' a bottle of wine onto a tray that had all the other bottles on display. Now that I know you have a glassblowing studio as well, might I ask that you do the glasswork as well Astra? To really help tie the piece together?"
I gave her a nod, the idea of a Goddess pouring out 'wine' in the form of glass down onto a flat surface sounding like quite the impressive and intriguing task, and I had to admit I was curious about how that might turn out; glancing at Camara, I saw that she was just as intrigued as I was, though she glanced down at lia, causing Renna to say "I can have Annie co out here instead of you heading into the city. She and her wife would like to et everyone anyways, so..."
The relief on Camara's face was evident as she smiled at Renna, who just nodded before gesturing at Rhefia to go next, the Deerkin sipping on whatever it was that Helia prepared for her and munching on an apple of her own.
"The next important thing is how to deal with Giselle, the Gazellekin whom helped cause all of this... The Queen wants to have Astra and I et with her to discuss everything that's happened, but..."
Tapping the edge of the cup, Rhefia pursed her lips and stared at the table for a few monts before softly saying "I don't know how well that will turn out. On one hand, I wouldn't mind wrapping my hands around her neck and snapping it - I know exactly how thin it is, after all - but on the other, doing so is obviously not... agreeable for any parties involved."
Those ambers of hers were far too neutral considering what she had just said, and it made both Shelur and Renna frown as they stared at the Deerkin closely, their obligations to the Queendom making Rhefia shake her head as she said "I know it isn't worth it, so don't worry. So I guess I need to go et her and get this sorted out... sadly. Which ans I need to head into the city and not get detained on my way there, since this sounds like a rather hush hush sort of eting."
"Well, considering the location you'd be in, I don't even think you lot could manage to run away easily, not with a Goddess and the Queen standing nearby~! It'd be suicide and idiocy incarnate to even attempt sothing like that..."
Inik's input made Rhefia raise a brow for a mont before she shrugged, her eyes flickering towards , like she thought I could sohow defend us from an enraged Goddess easy peasy like...
"Ahem... Besides that, we also have to go ahead and formally welco Inik and Renna into the family~! After all, Inik has decided to stick with Kalia in hopes of getting her pregnant, and Renna here is pregnant already~!"
Smiling at everyone, I looked around the table and saw that most of the attention went over to Inik instead of to Renna, with the Hawkkin still smirking as she t Camara's, Aethisia's, Rhefia's, Yiksa's, and Prixisia's gazes, unbothered by the minute amount of hostility that was in each of them.

Only Sari, Inik and Shelur (important characters that I can think of rn) don't have a na that ends in '-a' lol~!
Besides that, this upcoming Saturday I leave for vacation for a little over a week, so uploads for this aren't guaranteed daily, just as a heads up; if they are, it'll be 'fluff' or relatively non smutty things focusing on other important things happening, so there's that.
Servant System will continue to get daily uploads since its contracted/premium and earns
$ even after a year and a half now (which is aweso~) but everything else will be sporadic and dependent on what I can write whenever I have free ti, so don't be surprised if this upcoming Saturday to the next Saturday is 'dry' content wise.
I'll get the two/three bonus Chapters out before that though, so don't worry about that; I also have two 'bonus' Chapters that I wrote forever and a half ago about the Seven Deadly Sins Goddesses that need to be uploaded, so there is that as well.
