Chapter 175 - [Side story] When Henry was away

This story happens on the second night after Henry leaves Harvard castle and heading to the beach shore to make salt.

In Henry's personal maid's room, the time is around midnight.

"Claire…Are you sleeping yet?"

Clara is calling Claire in a low voice.

"Mmm…not yet, sister Clara…I can't sleep"

"Me too….Are you thinking like what I'm thinking?"

"If sister Clara is thinking about Henry, then our thinking is the same"

"I'm thinking about Henry…what is he doing now, did he reach the beach safely or not"

"Sister Clara, it's almost midnight now…I think Henry also already sleep right now. Please at ease, Henry is not going alone, he goes with many people with him. He will reach the beach safely"

"I guess you're right Claire….I'm just wondering if Henry also can't sleep and thinking about us now"

"I feel like I'm getting accustomed to sleeping in Henry's room….things feel different when I sleep here"

Clara turns her head so she can see Claire. At the same time, Claire also turns her head to see Clara. They both smiling when see each other.

"Claire…do you think what I'm thinking now?"

"If sister Clara is thinking to sneak into Henry's room and sleep there…I'm the same"

"So? What do you waiting for? Let's go!"

Clara and Claire slowly get down from their bed, they don't want to make carina who already sleep awake. They walk tiptoed to the door and try to open the door quietly. After carefully closing the door, Clara and Claire heading to Henry's room together. It was dark when they arrive there, so Clara light one candle to make some light into the room, after that, they jump to the bed together.

"Aaahh…. I can smell Henry's odor in the bed. Now I know why sister Clara prohibit me to change the bed sheet yesterday"

Claire starts sniffing the spot where Henry usually sleeps. Although the bed sheet is not changed, the bed sheet had been already tidied and can be used to sleep.

"Fu fu fu…right? I know I will miss Henry so much, so I decide to keep something that has Henry's smell."

"That's a good decision, sister Clara"

"Are you feeling sleepy now, Claire?"

"Not yet, sister Clara….can we talk about Henry until we sleep?"

"Sure, what do you want to talk about?"

"Mmm….Are you realize after that accident, Henry is changed?"

"What had changed from him?"

"Usually, he does some physical training in the morning, now he spends his time in the kitchen instead"

"Hmm…he just recovers from that accident. Maybe he doesn't want his body by training before he fully recovered. And he spends his time in the kitchen is not a bad thing, right? We can enjoy delicious food every day now"

"Um, you're right, sister Clara. But are you also aware that he shows more affection to us now? He even promises to marry us as his wife. Before the accident, he never talks about that"

"Do you forget what he said before? The experience of almost get killed during that accident makes him treasure people he cares more than before. I thought he already feel that way before, he just not sure if his fiancé will let him marry us. He doesn't want to give us empty promise, promise that he can't fulfill which will hurt our feeling. Maybe he already finds a way to make his fiancé allow him to marry us"

"His fiancé….i wonder what kind of girl she is. I hope she is a good and kind girl, worth as Henry's wife and can bring happiness for him. If she did not allow Henry to marry us, as long as she can make Henry happy with her, then I will be just fine"

Clara's touched with what Claire just said. She's caressing Claire's hair as her sympathy to Claire.

"Your wish is the same with me, Claire. Let me tell you something when I reach the age of sixteen, master Harvard called me to his office"

"What is master Harvard wants from you, sister Clara?"

"He only asks if I had someone in my heart and decide to marry him. If I had that, he will help to arrange the engagement then we can marry next year. You know, Henry still fifteen and haven't engaged with anyone at that time"

"Then…what your answer, sister Clara? You must answer that only Henry in your heart, right?"

Clara smiles and pat Claire's head

"Yes, just as you guessed…I said I only want to serve Henry as the only man in my life"

"And…what master Harvard said?"

"He only smiles while saying that it's up to Henry to choose his wife later, and if I change my mind he welcomes me to come at him anytime and he will help me search a man that suitable for my husband. I tell you this because I think maybe master Harvard will also call you and ask you about the same thing like what I had before"

"I definitely will answer like what you said, sister Clara"

"But later when Henry get engaged with an Earl's daughter, I thought my chance becomes Henry's wife is small. So when master Harvard offer us to become Henry's mistress as long as we can pregnant with Henry's seeds I immediately accept it. Maybe master Harvard already senses the danger may be fallen upon Henry. Besides before leaving the castle, Henry already leave his seeds to us, right? I hope I can get pregnant with that"

"That bastard! I will never forgive him for what he did to Henry, but I also a bit grateful to him because since that accident, Henry becomes a better person than before. And I also hope I can get pregnant too. I can't imagine if we get pregnant together, sister Clara"

"Hihihi…I also thought so. Are you sleepy now, Claire?"

"Mmm…I think I can get some sleep now, thanks to accompanying me chatting, sister Clara…Are you going to put your clothes on, sister Clara?"

"No …besides, we usually wear nothing when sleeping here with Henry, right?"

"Fu fu fu… You're right, sister Clara….um….can I ask something?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"We used to sleep by hugging Henry since he's not around, do you mind if I hug you instead?"

"Okay…no problem. I still will hug you even you're not asking"

Clara and Claire move their body closer to hug each other, but their ample breasts make them can't hug each other tightly like when they hug Henry. Realizing what happened, they only can laugh together.

"Ah! Our breasts become meat walls that make us can't hug tightly, sister Clara"

"Hahaha…but I enjoy the feeling when our breasts pressed against each other like this"

"Humm…actually, I also feel the same, sister Clara"

"Alright…just stay as close as possible. Good night, Claire"

Clara gives Claire goodnight kiss just like Henry usually gives to them. They still enjoy their breast pressed against each other for a while before they going to sleep.

"Good night, sister Clara….um, can we sleep in here again, tomorrow?"

"Sure, why not? We move here after Carina really sleeps"

"Thank you, sister Clara"

Claire also gives a kiss to Clara as a goodnight kiss and they start to sleep. Their intimacy acts somehow can reduce their lovesickness because of Henry's absence. Unfortunately, their menstruation period is coming one after another, which makes their hopes to get pregnant with Henry's seeds shattered.
