Chapter 120: Stairway To Harem
Chapter 120: Stairway To Harem
“You are the master, so that means Ameri— Aria is your pet?”
“I am not his pet!” Aria retorted.
“But servant and pet have the same meaning if you have to follow your master’s order, right?” Aurora asked with a straight face.
“You are not wrong but don’t call me his—”
Aurora ignored Aria and turned to Zach.
“Tell me, what’s the naughtiest order you have given her so far?” she asked with a curious and judging look on her face.
“I…” Zach averted his gaze and answered, “I asked her to call me daddy.”
Aurora stared at Zach with a dead-panned expression on her face.
“I know I have weird quirks, but please don’t judge me,” Zach sighed.
“He asked me to suck his finger too,” Aria quipped.
‘You are not helping!’ Zach cursed Aria via telepathy.
‘You are the one who asked me to play along,’ Aria replied with a smirk.
“Oh? What else has he asked you?” Aurora asked with a curious look on her face.
“He once asked me to end every sentence with ‘Nya~'” Aria said to Aurora with a grin on her face.
“I see…” Aurora looked at Zach with an amusing look on her face, as though she was enjoying herself.
“I did not know you had such fetishes…” Aurora said with a smug look on her face.
Zach shrugged his shoulders and said, “Everyone has their own fetishes. I am sure you have one too.”
Aurora licked her lips and said, “I do.”
“…” Zach wanted to know Aurora’s fetishes so badly that he was ready to confess more of his fetish so that Aurora could tell him her fetishes.
“But I won’t tell you,” Aurora said with a mischievous smile on her face and added, “Not yet.”
Aria was once again feeling left out because she didn’t have her own fetishes. She hadn’t lived her life, so she didn’t even know the basic needs of humans.
“Well…” Zach let out a deep sigh, but he knew Aurora wouldn’t tell him if she decided not to tell him.
“We are not here to talk about that, right?” Aria quipped. “What are you going to do about Aquarius?”
“About that…” Zach held Aurora’s hand even tighter and said before locking his eyes with her eyes: “What are your thoughts on that?”
“Why are you asking me?” Aurora shrugged her shoulders and said, “It’s your life, so you make choices.”
“You won’t get angry or something even if I fool around with other girls?” Zach asked with a curious yet serious look on his face.
“In other words, you are asking me if you should have a harem or not?” Aurora asked with a knowing look on her face.
“I am not even surprised you know about them, considering you are a royal,” Zach groaned.
“Yeah,” Aurora nodded and continued, “My father is a king, so he has a harem, a big one.”
Zach raised his brow with a curious look on his face and asked, “How big are we talking here ?”
“17 wives, 32 mistresses, and 51 concubines…” Aurora replied with a dejected look on her face.
“That’s too big.” Zach rubbed his thumb on the back of Aurora’s hand and said, “And here, I can’t handle one girl properly.”
“To be honest….” Aurora bit her lips and said, “I don’t want you to have a harem.”
“….”
“My father never treated them equally. He always favored my mother because he got an heir— me from her. He didn’t even remember half of his harem members’ names and always mistook them for one another,” she said with a wry expression on her face.
“I don’t want to be an annoying girl. Nor do I want you to think that I am obsessive. So… as long as you love me, I don’t care how many girls you fool around with. Just promise that you will treat all the girls equally and won’t favor one girl over another.”
After a brief pause, she continued with a grin on her face, “But I still may get jealous when you pay attention to other girls. I want you to notice me, and I might act weird. But That doesn’t mean I am angry or upset. And to be honest, I get excited when I see you with another girl.
She nodded and said, “Yes, that’s one of my fetishes. But make sure to keep it at a minimum. Because you still don’t know how scary I am when I get angry.”
“You are great, you know that?” Zach kissed Aurora’s hand with a smile on his face. He looked at her and said in a gentle voice, “I lo—”
Zach was interrupted by a waiter who arrived with various dishes on the plates.
‘I actually forgot we were sitting on the table and waiting for the food…’
After that, they all ate dinner with smiles on their faces, but Aria didn’t look satisfied with the outcome.
She hastily ate her food while taking large bites and chewing angrily.
‘I wanted them to fight a little, but they didn’t fight at all.’ Aria glanced at Aurora from the corners of her eyes and thought, ‘And why is she okay with sharing Zach with other women? If it was me, I definitely wouldn’t have allowed any girl to go near him!’
‘But wait… if Aurora is okay with that… does that mean she includes me too…?’ she wondered.
“…!”
Aria covered her mouth when she realized what she had just thought.
‘Why am I happy about this?! Whatever Aurora and Zach decide, it has nothing to do with me. None of this concerns me!’
Aria was trying hard to deny the inevitable. But it wasn’t her fault.
She was created in a way that she wouldn’t be able to feel love or hatred towards anyone. However, maybe this was a rare case. Perhaps it was because Zach wasn’t normal.
She assumed it was because Zach was her master and her feelings were no more than that of a servant towards her master.
However, she had undeniably fallen in love with Zach without even realizing it.
What fate awaits the goddess who managed to do an impossible, who managed to fall in love?
What destiny awaits a girl who fell in love with her nephew? Will her love ever be noticed, or will it be left unanswered?
Will Zach break the bounds of prior relationship and accept Aria, not as his servant, nor as his aunt, but as a girl who is awkward and novice about love?
