Stella and Crystal felt their hearts beat faster about what they would do now. They slowly moved their hands to touch Rhys's hands, they grasped it, making Rhys look at them surprised.
But even then his heart did not calm down. Rhys saw they were both in front of him, close to him, he could feel their breaths. See that in their eyes there were no other emotions but love, he was unsure if it was true love, but he chuckled it off later.
'Their eyes are full of affection, they truly have fallen for me. They judge the soul, not the appearance. They fell for my personality, something I was unaware of due to all that I went through.'
Rhys looked at their lips, colored blue by their lipsticks, their light makeup on their cheeks and eyes made them look enchanting, they had a beauty even Rhys was not resistant to, these two emotions made Rhys realize he had never felt like this.
Rhys felt their warm hands move towards his thighs, Stella's right hand on his right thigh, and Crystal's left hand on his left thigh, their other arms were still holding each other.
As Rhys felt them get closer to him he heard Stella speak.
"Rhys, these few weeks have been very fun for us, I'm sure my mother must have told you how our race works. How we choose our partners. I want to know... do you feel the same as I do? It might seem fast, but I assure you I love you. Do you?" Her words were filled with many emotions such as anxiousness, fear, love, and expectations. She wanted to know how he felt.
Before Rhys could even think of an answer Crystal spoke as well, "I too love you. It only has been over a month since we met, but my feelings are sincere. We both do not know how you feel about having more than one partner, but as twin sisters, we are prepared to share the same man our entire lives. So answer us Rhys, do you love us?"
Rhys gulped, but slowly calmed down and looked straight into their blue eyes, which reflected his handsome figure. He could see from their slight shaking that they were afraid of being rejected, but they still had the courage to ask about his feelings. Rhys felt they deserved a proper answer. Even if it had only been a month since they met, for them the time had been long enough. A usual marriage was not out of love, they only got closer after doing the deed, so even if their feelings were not fully developed, they felt it would be something similar.
Rhys smiled, he moved his hands which the girls held away from their grasps and onto their cheeks, as he caressed them slowly and carefully.
"I feel like it has been too fast for any real feelings to develop. But even then I feel something I never did, I might have no experience but I can say I sincerely love you enough to be comfortable with you two. So if you accept me I will accept you." Rhys spoke carefully and slowly. He wanted to take things slowly, although that 'slowly' would end up being too fast.
Stella and Crystal brightened up when they heard those words and with a loud "Yes!" pounced onto him and hugged him. They each hugged one side of Rhys, which made Rhys feel like he was in heaven, after all, their mature bodies and melons were pushing against his chest.
Rhys hugged them back as well, he was on the ground, on top of the grass hugging two beauties, Princesses.
Although he had confessed his feelings he would not rush his new relationships, he would make sure to take them out on dates, spent time with them, and bond more. He would not bed them immediately, at most he would hold their hands or kiss their foreheads as a sign of affection, but that was it.
Rhys hugged the twins tightly before he spoke his intentions, "Before we do anything, let us get closer than we are now. I plan on taking you on dates, one on one. So we can bond and become closer than before, you understand right?"
Stella and Crystal nodded, feeling relieved that Rhys did not immediately try and bed them, although they loved him, they needed time to prepare themselves for such a thing. They might've looked at his soul, but that didn't mean they knew it all, they only know his personality but not his thoughts. One could be a kind person but hold wicked thoughts.
——
"So... you confessed to each other?" Aurora spoke, she sat on her throne as she had just finished commanding her people. She was about to retire and go to her room when she felt Rhys, Stella, and Crystal walking towards the throne room, which made her stay back and hear them out.
To her surprise, they talked about how they confessed their feelings of love. Naturally, they planned to develop them even more for some time before moving forward.
When Aurora heard this she felt her heart clench but she soon calmed down, she understood it was fate, she could not change it. But in reality, it was her own feelings toward Rhys that made her act like that, although she is completely unaware.
"Yes. So I came to inform you in case." Rhys spoke, his voice was filled with many more emotions and not as neutral as before. It sounded more lively.
Aurora nodded as she sighed, her face veil covering her expressions. She did not reply any further and dismissed them. Although she did not notice Stella and Crystal eyes shine as they saw her reaction, they had never seen their mother not answer something since they were born.
——
Back in her room, Aurora wore her sleeping wear, white lingerie under a white sheer dress that reached the floor. This made her seem enchanting and sexy. She wore this without a care in her room because she was strong enough to know no one would try to go in her room and because no one would dare to look at her in that way either.
She laid in her long bed covered by sheer curtains all around, which from the outside would only show her enchanting figure outline. Her long black hair was flowing freely on the bed and some strands over her breasts, making her seem vulnerable when in reality she was one of the strongest beings on Zolorix.
'These feelings are annoying. How can such a man meet my conditions? He is weaker than me and from what I see I can sense he must have less potential as well. Otherwise his cultivation would not be this slow...' Aurora was confused, as she grew older her conditions for a partner grew larger and larger.
Her current conditions were as follow:
A genius like her or even more.
Must have a good personality.
Must be loving.
Must surpass her.
These were her conditions, Rhys met only a few, not all. Yet her heart and soul kept on calling her to get closer to him. But her pride as a strong woman prevented her from.
She could not accept that Rhys met her conditions, so she ignored her heart and soul with her sheer pride. She was a mature woman, Rhys was young enough for her to be his mother, hell, she was a mother herself.
Although she was a virgin she had her own daughters to take care of, there is no way, or so she thought.
'But my heart and soul say otherwise... These feelings were so complicated... even if I fall for him. My daughters love him, it would be too much to fall in love with him as well. The Empire will also have no one to rule, my mother is alive but she has secluded herself... it would be cruel to leave the Empire on her hands when she chose to retire...'
Aurora thought as she squirmed on her bed, her blossom heaving up and down.
'What should I do?...' Aurora was confused, she felt it was too soon to fall in love with him, even if her heart and soul accept him, she could not understand how he met her conditions. Much less how she can harbor any emotions for him when she spent less time than even her daughters.
'Whatever... I'll think about this tomorrow.' With those words she fell asleep, he perfectly lips curving into a smile as she dreamt of something that would remain unknown.
——
It was early the next day, Aurora had just woken up and stretched her body. As she slept her lingerie almost slid off her breasts, but she did not mind, she was alone in this room.
Aurora immediately moved towards the bath as her clothes dropped onto the ground before she even walked in the bathroom, she walked in naked as she moved with grace.
With every step, she moved her waist in a seductive way as he breasts bounced up and down. She would be seen as a seductress by anyone if she were to be seen walking like this.
She walked in into the bathroom and quickly prepared a warm bath, after which she got in the bathtub and relaxed.
Her thoughts quickly moved toward where she left off yesterday.
"Should I give him a chance? But how will I face my daughters? It would be too shameless of me..." Aurora muttered as her eyes veiled with a myriad of emotions.
'I told him falling in love too fast was not love but lust... yet here I am... I'm sure I feel love, but how? So soon? I rarely spend time with him. But he is nice and caring, never being rude, albeit he is a bit careful, but that is normal.'
Aurora moved her thick thighs on top of each other, as she stretched her body inside of the bathtub. Her breasts defied gravity and stood proudly, their big size would normally be pushed down yet they weren't. Her black hair was flowing freely and floating in the warm water, her breaths sounded very enticing.
Her thoughts moved toward her duties for today.
'I guess I will just have to see how my soul reacts from now on.' Like this, she stopped caring.
——
Aurora was now properly dressed and sat on her throne arrogantly, her veil covering her face his her eyes which weren't focused, she was thinking about her emotions for Rhys.
Although she said she wouldn't think about it from now on she couldn't stop when she saw him being so close with her daughters.
Aurora saw he was gentle, full of affection and love. Inwardly she felt jealous but Aurora was too prideful to even acknowledge that, she thought it was something else.
As she lost herself in thoughts she felt her daughters walk in on their own, she sensed Rhys was practicing alchemy in a room specially prepared for him.
As the doors to the throne room opened Aurora looked at her daughters with the affection of a mother.
"My beloved daughters, to what do I owe this visit?" Aurora asked her daughters.
"Mother we want to talk to you about Rhys." Stella spoke.
"About?"
"Feelings." Crystal was the one to speak this time.
"Hmm... did he do anything bad to you?" She raised one of her eyebrows, although it wasn't shown because of her veil.
"He has done nothing wrong, instead it is you who is doing something wrong." Stella replied, making Aurora's eyes widen as she thought that they were disgusted with her feelings, they must have found out somehow.
"What do you mean?" Even then Aurora's voice was calm, like a lake.
"Mother, we were raised by you. We know you the best. Do you think we would not notice how you act with him? You talk to him without your veil, you allow him to call you Aurora, lastly, you speak with as much emotion if not more than when you speak with us." Stella spoke, while Crystal nodded.
"That—" Before she could reply she was cut off.
"Mother I know you must be surprised by your feelings, I mean even we were! He saved us once, and we were only together for a few hours... but even then our souls felt something good about him and began to judge if he was fit or not. In the end, he was and here we are. It must have taken you by surprise that even your soul reacted, no?" Crystal spoke.
Aurora remained silent and just heard her daughter speak, she was unaware she was that obvious about her unclear feelings.
"So give him a chance, we will give you some time to speak with him. He is unaware of this, we also want you to be happy. I'm sure you will feel like us, after all he is just that good of a man." Crystal smiled.
"Are you sure?... He is your man... it would be irregular to fall for the man my daughters love..." Aurora spoke in a meek voice.
"Mother, we know some families practice incest, it is common in Highsky Empire... so don't worry! We will support you as well. We love him but we don't want to leave you behind when he leaves... If you could come with us it would be great...!" Stella made a 'V' sign with her index and middle finger.
Aurora chuckled at what he daughters were doing for her, so she thought why not, she would give it a chance... only a little one.
"Fine."
With those words, a plan was made. Something Rhys never saw coming and would make him someone hated by all men.
