Lust Knight

Chapter 249 - I shouldn't love this as muChapter as I do

Lucien can't help but smile at Dawn. "You really are a strong woman, physically and mentally. Even affected by all that shit, you are adapting quickly to the situation."

Dawn blushes. "I... I'm really sad, angry, and mostly confused. But yes, I am managing to control my emotions. And that is because of you."

"You showed me the truth and helped me at that moment... Even if only getting me out of there, and... hugging me. I just want to say that I am very grateful for your kindness even though I was your enemy."

Lucien quickly responds. "You were not my enemy. Not personally. Of course, you were leading the army that was the enemy of my family."

"But usually, these conflicts are created by other people. When we realize it, we are already on one side, and we are forced to be the enemy of the other side. There is no right or wrong, but people defending their sides."

Dawn can't help feeling relieved that Lucien didn't think badly of her. She doesn't feel anything but gratitude for him being kind to her, but she doesn't want to have problems with Amelia's brother.

"Mm. I'm glad you think so." She nods to him.

Lucien walks towards Amelia and pats Dawn's shoulder as he passes at her side. "The battle is over, but we still have to clear the mess on the battlefield. Also, I have to give my troops a rest before we start to travel back to Portgreen."

Amelia looks at Lucien. "Your troops fought well... But you know that the result would be different if Dawn and I were there."

Lucien sits on the rock next to Amelia. "What do you mean? Are you still thinking about the competition? Do you want to fight one of my wives or me?"

Amelia can't help being confused. She knows that she wants many things from Lucien, but she doesn't know how to act to achieve that. Her jealousy makes a mess of her feelings.

She notices Dawn's look and remembers her advice about avoiding any confrontation.

Then she gently puts her hand on Lucien's thigh. "It's okay. I don't want to fight you, brother."

Lucien notices Amelia trying to demonstrate her feelings with subtle actions, and he is very happy about that.

He puts his hand on top of Amelia's and starts to gently stroke it with his fingers. "Good. We can do anything while we are together."

Amelia can't help smiling as she is getting along with Lucien as she always wanted. Meanwhile, Dawn smiles too, and Envy rolls her eyes at L.u.s.t.

Lucien takes Amelia's hand. "Well, how about meeting my wife then? We are now one big family."

Amelia thinks for a second before answering. "Yes, of course. But I'm afraid they might have a grudge to Dawn; after all, she was the leader of the Light Empire army."

Lucien smiles at Dawn as he responds. "Don't worry about that. My wives are kind and understanding women. I'm sure all of you will get along."

She nods. "So, alright. Let's go."

They get up, and he wraps his arm around her delicate waist, making Amelia's body get warmer while her heart beats faster.

Amelia wants to get closer and closer to Lucien in all possible ways, as she doesn't care about stupid rules anymore. Still, she is timid, and every physical contact with him generates an impactful reaction on her body.

Just as Dawn suggested, Amelia tries not to show that she is so happy that Lucien is hugging her even though she is actually loving it so much and wants him to hug her tighter.

While Amelia can't hide her emotions very well because her face is getting more and more flushed, Dawn also blushes as she sees Lucien opening his other arm to her.

Dawn really loved flying in Lucien's arms. She just regrets being so sad at that moment to enjoy the feeling of flying.

Still, she fears that, like the other women around Lucien, including his own sister, she ends up being seduced by the devil.

Dawn is not ready to start a relationship now, and she also doesn't want that if she ever has a husband, he has as many wives as Lucien.

"I... I... It's just that..." Dawn doesn't know how to explain that she doesn't want Lucien to hug her.

Lucien realizes that his actions can be a little improper sometimes. Still, he asks. "What is wrong?"

Dawn can't keep looking at Lucien, so she looks at the ground. "It's just... I think I prefer to walk. We're not that far from the beach."

"Okay, let's walk then." Lucien starts to slowly take his hand off Amelia's waist, giving her time to react.

And just as he expected, Amelia quickly holds his arm, keeping his hand on her waist. Lucien has a hard time trying not to laugh at her cute reaction while imagining several ways to tease his sister.

Amelia only realizes what she did after she already did it. Still, she doesn't regret it and looks at him while biting her own lips. "It's just... I really enjoyed flying."

Lucien can't help smiling. "Sure..."

Amelia gets even more flushed but continues to hold Lucien's arm for fear that he will stop hugging her.

Then she looks at Dawn. "Please, Dawn. Lucien is not going to bite you or anything like that."

Dawn realizes that she doesn't have much of a choice as she wants to help Amelia. [How can a sister and brother... how did I end up in the middle of this mess?!]

"Okay." She walks towards Lucien as he just keeps one of his arms open, giving her space to position herself on his chest as she wants.

Dawn approaches Lucien slowly and enters his embrace. She feels her body getting warmer while the pleasant smell of him awakens in her unfamiliar feelings.

She is surprised. [How can he smell so good after a battle... Is that because of L.u.s.t's influence?]

Dawn lost herself in thoughts while looking at Lucien's muscles, visible because his leather armor is tiny and tight.

Lucien talks to her. "Dawn, you have to hold on to me as before."

"Ah, sorry." She realizes that her actions were being strange and quickly holds tight to Lucien's waist like Amelia is doing.

But by hugging Lucien tightly, Dawn understood that before, she hadn't realized how intimate her actions had been when she was so sad.

She tries to convince herself that they are not doing this with second thoughts, but just so that he can take Amelia and her quickly to the beach.

Still, Dawn never had that kind of contact with men before. That is very new and exciting for her.

Amelia is a little jealous as she sees another woman in Lucien's arms. Still, she also feels that it is not so bad because it's Dawn.

Despite being quite different from Amelia's desire for Lucien's unconditional love, she also feels like helping Dawn achieve what she desires.

Envy has already explained to Amelia that their generation of demonic energy is all about desire.

And while they generate much more energy by 'stealing' what others desire most, they can also generate demonic energy by helping others to conclude their desires.

Of course, Envy's whole strategy had changed when she realized how powerful she and Amelia could become just with Lucien.

Amelia will generate a lot of demonic energy by fulfilling her desire to be with Lucien and will make many other women jealous of her for that in addition to the new demonic energy she can create with Lucien.

Then Amelia smiles and nods at Dawn, clearly giving her permission to enjoy her brother's affection.

Dawn stops overthinking about that and just rests her head on Lucien's chest just like Amelia is doing while both giggles.

Lucien smiles as he hugs them both tighter to his body. Dawn's heavy armor makes the hug a little uncomfortable.

But Amelia is wearing a light armor, which allows him to feel various parts of her delicate body, especially in the part of her waist that he continues to caress.

"Let's go." Lucien flaps his wings, flying skyward while L.u.s.t and Envy dematerialize their bodies, returning to his and Amelia's soul.

Lucien has no difficulty in flying while holding two people because his wings are very big and strong, so he flies at a speed not too fast besides not going directly to the beach to allow the girls to enjoy the flight.

The view of the beach and sea from the sky is incredibly beautiful, but Amelia and Dawn do not notice that as they continue with their faces on Lucien's chest.

The girls think he has to concentrate on the flight, and so he wouldn't notice they enjoy his body, especially the addictive smell they already love.

But how could Lucien not notice two girls sniffing his chest?

Not only does he pretend not to notice that allowing them to do whatever they want, but he also continues to caress Amelia's waist, making her body more and more used to his touch.

Seducing a woman like Dawn is as natural to Lucien as having breakfast. But the situation with Amelia is totally different.

Amelia is his sister... A sister who has always had a complicated relationship with him. She always seemed to be angry and stressed.

But now, Lucien understands that she was just in need of affection and tried to get his attention with awkward actions.

Well, regretting his mistakes doesn't change them. But now she is with him, and Lucien is grateful to have this opportunity to give all the love and affection that Amelia needs.

Lucien is willing to do anything to protect and keep his family happy even if for that he has to cross certain lines and make his sisters his wives too, as long as that is the best for them.

The flight was very pleasant for everyone, except L.u.s.t and Envy, who only watched. It didn't last too long before Lucien land on the battlefield, in front of Rose's stone thrones.

"I'm back, my dears." Lucien smiles at his wives as he walks over to them with Amelia and Dawn by his side.

He pats Amelia's head. "I wanted to introduce you to them the first time we met in this world. These are my beloved wives, your sisters-in-law."

Some of Lucien's wives are still finishing other Light Empire soldiers across the battlefield, but those in front of them, respectfully bow to Amelia.

"Nice to meet you, sister-in-law." The girls greet Amelia together.

Amelia feels a little ashamed because all Lucien's wives act in a very respectful and friendly way with her while she has been feeling jealous of them even before meeting them.

It also bows respectfully. "Nice to meet you all, my si..."

But Amelia can't call Lucien's wives sisters-in-law. She certainly is very proud to be his sister, but she doesn't want to be only his sister anymore.

All of Lucien's wives understand Amelia's situation. Knowing Lucien, they comprehend that it must be challenging for any woman not to develop romantic feelings for him.

They cannot predict how things will go from now on. So, all they can do is try to get along with each other and trust that Lucien will not neglect anyone.

Lucien tries to avoid the weird mood by introducing Dawn. "This is Dawn, Amelia's friend. She will stay in our house as our guest the long she wants."

Not all Lucien's wives have sympathy for Dawn, but they don't hate her either, and their lives with Lucien won't be worse by just having her in their home as a guest or even if something similar to what happened to Olivia and Scarlett happens to her as well.

Lucien's wives also bow to Dawn, but making a shorter bow, showing respect, but not so much as they have for Amelia.

But Dawn makes a long arc, getting her forehead very near to the ground while speaking in a sorry tone. "Please, forgive me for all the harm I may have done to your families, friends, and people."
