Chapter 916 Make Me!
Chapter 916 Make Me!
"Vilifying? What do you mean?" Davis narrowed his eyes in confusion.
He knew that Princess Isabella wasn't a person who would scheme over people's back. Then what was she afraid of?
"Evelynn and Natalya are so young and pitiful. From the beginning, Evelynn has been with you, following you all the way till here. Natalya also relies on you and has already stated that she would die without you. They only have you and think of you as their pillar..."
Princess Isabella's eyes became moist.
"Yet... Yet... I can only think about how I can forcefully take them away from you so that I can solely possess you to myself!"
Davis looked at her in understanding.
'So that's what it was...'
At this time, the door to the room abruptly opened, causing Princess Isabella to abruptly look at the newcomer. Recognizing the person and observing that the person was coming at her in a rush, Princess Isabella took a step back as she visibly cowered! She was afraid that she would be slapped and chastised.
However, she felt two strong arms embrace her, locking her body in a grasp. She froze before she bit her lips as she felt the warmth she needed from him.
However, it made her feel worse than ever to be embraced like this by him.
This figure was none other than the real Davis. The Solitary Soul Avatar promptly left the room to take care of the people on the bottom floor. Davis was rather hasty in coming to her that Evelynn and Natalya noticed something was wrong.
He couldn't let them see this side of Princess Isabella no matter what, as he felt that things might get worse.
Evelynn and Natalya possessed enormous respect for Princess Isabella, and in fact, they even thought of her as the big sister. He couldn't let their emotions fall apart.
"I-It's something I c-can't help..." Princess Isabella sobbed in his embrace, "I feel like a vile woman for thinking like this..."
"It's natural to feel like this... Don't I think that I can possess you all to myself? It's all the same..." Davis consoled.
He tried to bring her back to normal by reasoning that he was not a good person as well, but she burst out instead.
"No, you don't understand..."
Princess Isabella shook her head, "Even though they a-allowed me to be near you, I've sometimes thought of taking them away f-from you... This isn't once or twice... I even had this thought earlier today..."
Davis suddenly recalled her declaration in the Grand Welcoming Hall that he was hers alone... Was that the reason for this outpour right now?
"Now, it may be fine, but I'm... I'm afraid that I might really start to act on my thoughts if it were to continue like this..."
"You won't!" Davis strongly replied.
"You... You don't under-"
"I am not saying this just for your satisfaction or just to console you..." Davis interrupted.
"These are feelings that you would initially feel, but the more you interact with them, the more you would feel that they are like your own sisters."
"If your thoughts to separate them away from me is true, then your thoughts to protect them and your actions of taking care of them like they were your sisters are also true. "
Davis wryly smiled, "Everyone has an ugly side to them... Even me..."
Princess Isabella stared at his face in confusion before abrupt realization dawned on her face.
"No person is perfect." Davis continued, "Although I wouldn't dare say that I can love a woman with unforgivable flaws, yours are nothing in comparison. In truth, this couldn't even be considered a flaw in my mind, as it is fine to be wanting to keep me all to yourself, just the same as I do."
"Besides, even if you possessed thoughts like these, you haven't acted on it yet. If I were to blame you for this, that's like convicting you a for a crime that you have not committed yet."
Princess Isabella increasingly trembled before she moved unexpectedly.
"You are the only person without any flaws!" She screamed before she embraced him back as she stuck her face to his chest, feeling his warmth.
She was glad that she confessed and confided in him. Otherwise, she didn't know how long it would have taken for her to resolve these thoughts by herself. Although she wasn't anywhere near taking malicious actions against them, she knew that she was jealous of the way he looked at them.
She wanted his gaze to be only directed at her, but she knew that it was unreasonable for her to ask.
For a problem to begin in their life, she knew this was just a start. That is why she didn't let her negative feelings fester in her heart and confessed it to him instead, wanting to know how he would react to it. Fortunately, he didn't think ill of her.
Besides, the fact that she didn't get criticized and vilified also made her feel that she could depend on him. It made her feel a deep sense of affection for him as she tightly held him.
"How can that be?" Davis wryly chuckled
"I have many flaws... As I stated before, I'm greedy for all of you..."
"Mmhmm..." Princess Isabella shook her head in denial, "If you were really ugly, you would've slept with many women, regardless of their relationship to you. You wouldn't care about them or anything and might've even just left your child with them. However, you love all three of us almost equally... and that's in no way ugly."
"Your love is just boundless and..." Princess Isabella thought for a moment before she charmingly smiled, "Over-encompassing..."
Davis became stunned before he expressed a wry smile again.
'Well, that's one way to twist morality...'
However, Davis digressed and contradicted himself at the same moment.
This was not a monogamous world, but neither was it a world that strongly encouraged polygamy. Strength was the ruling factor, and whether if it were men or women, people longed for a companion that they could give their all for!
After all, this world had romanticized monogamy in novels, artworks, and entertainment, even going as far as to perhaps immortalize it as the best a person, a cultivator can get, much like the modern world. He had to keep reminding himself that although women in this world thought of polygamy as something acceptable and normal, with their man both legally and illegally having relations with other women, it didn't necessarily mean that they approved of it.
Right now, it could be said that he gained approval from all three of them!
Davis felt incredibly overjoyed and felt glad that Princess Isabella brought this matter by herself! He didn't know how to bring it up as he felt that Princess Isabella's self-esteem was too high.
Princess Isabella moved back her head from his embrace and looked at him in a strange light, "Are you sure that I have a say in your life?"
Davis didn't even hesitate as he gave a vigorous nod that was filled with confidence.
"Then I'd like to represent my two sisters in saying that you can only take in more women if you are stronger than me. Until then, I will not allow you to have another woman!"
Princess Isabella's eyes gleamed in a crazy light, "If you want a fourth woman, then make me comply! As the man of the house, make me submit to your rule!"
