Chapter 24 - Charm

It took Elizabeth a moment to realize that her mother not only noticed her intentions but she acted faster than her.

"Oi aren't you the more "mature" here, so why are you competing with your own daughter?".

Erin shook her head.

"All is fair in love and war isn't it little Daimon ♥".

Speaking of Daimon, he was the most surprised one by the current situation, a kiss on the cheeks is what he expected and instead Erin kissed him for real, if not for the soulmate contract screen that appeared in front of her, she would have not let him go so easily.

For some reason he felt worried about Aisha's reaction to what just happened but when he turned to see her, the only thing he could see was her showing a smile of complicity in her face, which made him understand that she knew this was going to happen.

Although there are spells to amplify or change your voice, only Arch ranks can transmit their voices directly to other people's ears using mana vibrations as the conduct, so Erin probably told Aisha that she was going to kiss him beforehand.

Aisha saw her son's happy yet confused expression and she internally smiled, "well he for sure liked it, what I shame I didn't have to… go through this "ceremony" to sign the contract".

After a moment of contemplation Daimon reached a final conclusion, "why am I acting so surprised, they basically accepted to become my lovers so a kiss it's not something to fret over… but I also have my pride as a man so a provocation must be answered in the same kind".

"Auntie… I don't mind the kiss but can you put me on the ground please?".

Erin let him land on her tail again but then something that no one expected happened, Daimon… kissed her.

Erin's eyes widened by the surprise but she didn't do anything to stop what was going on, instead her tail wiggled to show her current happy mood.

Originally Daimon was just going to give her a short kiss, just touching her lips and that was going to be end of it but once he was there his mind drifted away… at least until he heard a familiar voice speaking to him.

"Ahem, darling that is enough for now don't you think?", said Aisha.

He separated from Erin only to be dragged by Elizabeth.

"That's not good little Daimon, showing favoritism is wrong...unless the objective is me hehehe ♥"

At this point no one cared if what they were doing was correct or not, Elizabeth kissed him a couple of times before Elaine did the same, once he had gone to the whole circle of mother and daughters, he ended up… falling in Aisha's embrace, after all that he felt as if he was drunk, his mind was a bit dizzy and his heart was beating really fast.

"Evangeline, what the hell is happening, I might not have kissed anyone before but I don't think I'm supposed to be… enjoying it to this point?".

"Well, you are a pervert who got excited thinking of receiving a kiss from the beautiful women on this room, what did you expect hahaha", she answered.

Seeing that Daimon was not in the mood for jokes she finally explained.

"You are no fun, it's not anything bad, don't forget you are an "apex predator", basically your body is producing a lot of pheromones to entice your partners, that is why they suddenly also let their inner desires unleash without any restrain, as for your dizziness it's probably because it's the first time your physic activates".

Daimon sighed, "seriously what kind of system are you… whatever I don't have time to complain right now, how do I recover the control?".

"Just take a deep breath, only the first time it activates is a bit chaotic for future situations you will be able to decide if you want to use this or not… on most of the cases".

"What the hell do you mean with "most of the cases" … forget it I have to stop this before things get out of hands", he thought.

He did as Evangeline said, he closed his eyes and after a couple of seconds, he felt his heart beat returning to normal which made relax a bit, the dizziness was slowly fading… until he felt someone kissing him again.

Daimon opened his eyes only to see a face he was very familiar with covering his entire field of vision.

"Mom is kissing me!!!!", was the only thing in his mind right now.

*Ding*

[A new skill from the Apex Predator physic has been unlocked due to a specific action]

[Charm (Passive): when the host is excited his body will release pheromones to erase all the inhibitions on the members of the opposite sex around him (It only works on those who have romantic feelings for the host)]

Although Daimon finally got some control when the skill was registered, he was still overwhelmed by the feeling of his mother lips pressing against his.

A moment later Aisha separated from her son; she patted his head a couple of times before saying.

"Did you like it darling? one thing is being surprised by Erin and another one is willingly kissing her… if you were going to do that then the first one on the list should have been me ♥.

Daimon was having an inner debate, this was bound to happen sooner or later, since Aisha was his soulmate and she indeed has been closer with him on the past few days than when they lived with the Naktis, on the other hand the condition for "charm" to affect her was that she must have romantic feelings towards him and the soulmate function didn't force her to develop that.

According to Evangeline, the soulmates were on equal standing with the host of the system and thus they won't have their mind, emotions or personalities affected by it, if anything they will only start showing their inner desires but that will be all.

To be honest even Evangeline was surprised by the current situation.

"I have to say that your mother is quite daring… I didn't expect her to express her "love" for you so easily and in front of others this soon, maybe she got motivated because you were doing it with other women in front of her".

Daimon shrugged

"Don't act as if this was not your purpose from the very beginning… but she does look happy and that is all that matters for me", he said before focusing his attention on Aisha.

"Yes, it felt… good".

Aisha smiled, for some reason when she saw the Revy ladies kissing her son, she felt a bit of jealous which led her to think "I'm also his soulmate and not only that I'm his mother so I should be the first in line".

And before she noticed, their lips were pressed against each other when she reacted the deed was already done so she ignored the slight shyness she was feeling and let herself enjoy what was also her first kiss.

"That's good to hear, some good skinship is needed from time to time ♥ so whenever you feel like it you can always ask for a kiss from me".

It was getting late and a lot of things happened in just one day so Daimon went to the bed early this time, there was only one bedroom on Erin's mansion and it was hers so he ended up sleeping on her bed which luckily quite big.

The girls stayed behind on the dining room for a moment, they remained silent until Erin's laugh broke the weird atmosphere.

"Seems like by all means we are a family now hahaha, to think that Aisha's son would end up being "our" future partner ♥".

Her mother words made Elaine remember that she just kissed a little boy who is two hundred years younger than her and she felt ashamed, "Sigh I thought that he was going to be the surprised one and yet I ended up acting as a little girl in love… although it was my first kiss".

Elizabeth noticed her sister expression and she was quite amused.

"Come on sis don't tell me you are getting cold feet now hahaha, besides you seemed to enjoy it as much as mom and me… also Aisha, I didn't expect you to do the same, not like I'm one to judge though".

Aisha cleared he throat.

"Ahem, let's not speak about that right now… instead why don't we go all go to sleep, tomorrow we have a lot of things to do".

They al shared a smile of complicity before standing up and leaving the room.

Daimon was laying down in Erin's bed, after all it has been some time since he enjoyed the comforting feeling of a bed, when he suddenly felt chills running through his spine.

"Why do I have the feeling that something bad is going to happen?", he thought.
