Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!

Chapter 155: Chapter 155 - Another one who’s asking to be eaten

It’s really nice to finally have my own home here in Sklavryet after over a week of a lot of part-time jobs. It may be just a temporary abode but it was so far the first thing I was able to pay for with hardwork, like literal physically demanding hardwork. It was not that I wasn’t earning money in Hoffen but most of my money there were from businesses I have set up (somebody manages it for me) or my inherited knowledge (answering questions here and there). Here in Sklavryet, I had to use both my physical and magical capabilities to earn money. It was simply labor-intensive compared to how I did think back in Hoffen.

It has also been quite a while since I did cleaning chores and honestly, my body isn’t used to all this work. Sure, I did household chores when I was living alone back in earth but that was a different body than the one I have now. I must have started to be too dependent to the men in my life and their natural tendency to do everything they can to provide any assistance I may need.

I do have an attendant at home so he takes care of the cleanliness and orderliness of the whole villa so there isn’t really anything that I needed to do to maintain it. It was a good thing that Lark was here with me so I don’t feel so alone and the workload in terms of house chores was halved too.

At the start, he tried to take up all the chores for himself but that’s unfair since he is no longer my slave and he isn’t even my husband to start with so what right do I have to order him around (not that I order the other three around). Ugh. Let’s just focus on the present. Right now, my last task for the day is just to make sure to place barriers and soundproofing spells around this home then I’ll be off to sleep.

I did all that was left to do real quick then walked hurriedly back to the bedroom. I saw the unmoving lump on the bed under the blankets and it seems that Lark has already fallen asleep. He must have been really tired after all the activities I had done and all the places we visited today. I quickly changed to my sleepwear and lifted the blanket to sleep but just as I did, I got quite surprised with all the nakedness I saw. This tactic is quite familiar. Is this what Ioannis and Lark talked about in secret last time?

I sighed and simply sat on the bed. After pondering for a few minutes, I laid on the bed beside the naked guy though I made sure there was a big space between us. It’s not that the nakedness didn’t work in seducing me but thankfully, I have seen everything of him a few times before so the impact was not that strong.

He is also not the first naked man I have seen so far so even just a tiny bit, I am quite proud of myself for the self-control I have built up for the past few months BUT the problem was I haven’t had sex for quite sometime since many things have happened. As the things have piled one after the other as Ioannis is currently pregnant, Kayden was outside the academe managing the inn, Dimitri was busy with his academic subjects and managing Ceres. I was also busy with finishing all the subjects I have enrolled in and taking the certification exams for my registered professions in preparation for this trip to Sklavryet so there was just no time for intimacy.

To put it in a phrase, ”I am starving” in that area. This naked, defenseless man currently lying on my bed is not good for my mental health at all. Ioannis definitely knows the current state I am in but he still sent this man with me. I think I finally understood what that secret was all about. He is trying to ensure that in case I take someone new in, it would be better if it was someone he knows. He accepted this guy already, huh?

As for the current situation, I made sure to still put part of the blanket on me but I tried to face the side of the bed which was facing away from Lark. Him being naked, clearly signifies an invitation to do something that can’t be undone. I know what he’s doing but him and Ioannis ganging up on me like this is rekindling my competitive spirit. The more you label me as something, the more I will prove to you that I am the opposite of what you think of me. I wish Lark a good luck on his future endeavors.

I know he resonates with me and was quite at the upper percentages too but I have learned to not act on instincts alone. If I were one that did that, I would have not been able to keep my hands off of that prince and his four minions.

Other women would have pounced on the first instance that they find out that a man resonates with them, knowing full well that the man can only do so much to resist a touch from the woman he’s highly resonant with. Most women will also simply have a night, a little taste but will definitely not be willing to take responsibility afterwards. It was an all too common scenario in this world. I am doing my best here.

Not to exaggerate but this guy is definitely talented, popular and good-looking. A lot of women were willing to do anything to get their hands on him whether it was appropriate or even through inappropriate means. There must be a ton of reasons why he’s highly in demand in the entertainment district, right?

As for my fickle self, I admit that I have become a bit selfish when it comes to Lark. From the time we arrived here, I have made sure that everybody knew that he was off limits since he already belonged to me. That is a big claim for someone like me who have not even taken the man’s purity. I also kept him hanging, honestly. I did not reject him but I did not accept him as well.

At the start, I admit that I really don’t have any plans of touching him or taking him in but it was amusing to keep him around. I was not dumb, I know he stayed because he was hoping that eventually, I will at least give him a proper title. Even Ioannis knew that I was somewhat interested in the guy but I was just denying it. My clever husband was right. I wasn’t even willing to let him go to anybody else. I guess somewhere inside my brain, I was also confident that he won’t be able to leave me anyways.

Now, here we are at this moment. A naked man asleep on my bed whom I know was not asleep at all. He is seducing me and waiting for my next move. It was quite evident in his body that is currently shivering. He tried to suppress it but it was not that successful. Should I play into this and trap this guy instead? I am sure that I have an evil smirk on my face right now but who told these two guys to plan things behind my back?

After laying on the bed for some time and my back facing him, I suddenly flipped my body and gave a kiss on his forehead together with a spell that will put this guy’s body to sleep but will keep his consciousness awake. To explain it simply, he knows what is happening to his body but he won’t be able to react on it.

It was similar to sleep paralysis I guess minus the feeling of someone wanting to kill you . The similarity is that you can’t just wake up no matter what you do. It’s his fault for staying naked when he should have just slept obediently as per my instructions.

I admire his bravery though. I am quite sure that Ioannis did not tell him how I spend my time in the bedroom, how I like things to be done and how I like to keep things under my control. He would have backed out and got scared if he had any idea about my stamina too. Ioannis seemed to have sold him out to me to start with in the guise of making sure I had a companion and him trying to stop me from taking in other men during my 2-month stay here.

Lark was just unlucky to trust that guy since that handsome face of his looks serious and trustworthy. In modern terms back on Earth, he has that resting bitch face all the time so you really don’t know if he’s joking, angry, being truthful or even if he was outright lying.

I almost laughed out loud when I thought about how cunning Ioannis was but I had to keep it in. I would have not chosen him as the main husband if I was not confident that he has what it takes to handle a harem full of men with different personalities that all want to have my attention every chance that they can get.

He should also be strong enough to handle the bickering of men who are jealous by nature. As for this guy that is now in sleep paralysis because of my spell, where should I start my fun with him?
