In a rather long corridor, large curvaceous red curtains were dimming the hallway in darkness from the right side of the hallway and the tapping sound of a man's shoe reverberating within the hall could be heard as he passed by several butlers standing straight up with their chests puffed out by the man's left hand side.
The butlers all bowed their heads towards him as he was clearly the head butler in the mansion. Of course the man was clearly Alfred as he leads a beautiful dark elf dressed in a modest light blue dress into the chambers of the duchess.
*Knock*
A single knock was made on the door before Alfred takes two steps back to heave a sigh. And just like that he vanishes into the room.
Deena on the other hand who was standing right outside the room was clearly feeling anxious with her hands trembling a bit and her heart beating faster than she could even count.
All these weren't without purpose of course. After all she was about to meet the love of her life's mother. It was simply too much for her to handle alone. Her man clearly wasn't by her side right now which only made her feel more anxious than she thought she could possibly be.
Of course he had informed her countless of times beforehand that she shouldn't worry about his mother's reactions towards her for she would accept her with open arms but still, hearing about someone and seeing them in person were clearly two words that clearly shouldn't be used in the same context.
'Deep breaths.....deep breaths,'
She tried desperately to calm her nerves but the more she tried, the more anxious she becomes. Eventually Alfred appeared before her once again as he declared.
"Forgive me Lady Deena. Her Grace will see you very shortly," Alfred bowed very deeply before heading back to the front door.
'Lady? Me?'
Deena who had clearly never been addressed as such before could barely conceal the surprised look she had on her face as she possibly couldn't believe what she was hearing. She was just recently addressed as 'Lady', since when did the world become reversed. She wondered, but wasn't meant to ponder on the thought before she heard the door opening silently by the person in the other room.
Then a silver colored hair woman appeared from the room dressed in her night robe. Clearly she didn't have the time to change into something different, moreover the room she was in just now wasn't hers to begin with but her son's.
"Good morning...."
"Shhhh,"
Deena bowed her head deeply towards the woman whose over sized bust couldn't clearly be concealed by the red colored night robe she wore but before Deena could finish her words, she was immediately hushed by the duchess Suzanne before being beckoned to follow her subtly and quietly.
"Come with me,"
Suzanne mouthed those words as she held Deena's hands while urging her to follow. Suzanne kept tiptoeing away from the room with the aim of not waking up the girls who were clearly still asleep in her son's room. It appeared all three girls felt comfortable sleeping in their father's room than anywhere else.
After entering a new room, Suzanne closes the door gently before facing Deena who was behind her. Scanning Deena from head to toe, Suzanne couldn't contain the excitement she felt towards Deena's appearance. She instinctively rushed towards her to give her a hug.
"Wow!! You're really beautiful, my son is so lucky to have you by his side!!"
"Huh?! Me?" Shocked by Suzanne's words and her familiarization towards her, Deena instinctively inquired.
"Yes you. Now sit and tell me how it feels to have my son by your side. Is he treating you well?" Suzanne inquired as she urged Deena to take a sit at the edge of the bed.
"Yes. He's been so kind to me, " Deena replied with her head facing downwards as she clamped her hands between her legs.
Hearing Deena's words and noticing her beet red cheeks, Suzanne shifted closer towards Deena to ask her a question by whispering to her.
"Have you done it?"
"Huh?!" Shocked yet again by Suzanne's words, Deena exclaimed. Meanwhile Suzanne noticed Deena's perplexed look and so she forms a circle with her left hand and pokes her right index finger into the circle.
*Nods*. *Nods*
Now Deena clearly understood what Suzanne meant and her faced turned rosy in less than a second before facing downwards once again as she nods in response to Suzanne's words.
"Really?! Wow!! Tell me! Tell me!! How big was it?!"
Deena tried to dig her head deeper away from Suzanne but alas it was impossible for she truly wished she could hide from this creepy lady who kept asking her questions that a mother-in-law shouldn't ask. Her questions made Deena to keep replaying every night both embarked on countless number of intimate copulation.
But she couldn't deny the relief she felt knowing that Dante was actually right about his mother not being too stern and strict.
"Very big," Deena whispered those words but the words could barely escape the Keen ears of Suzanne as she grabbed hold of Deena's hands and inquired once more.
"How was it? It was good right?. Come closer, let me tell you ways you can make him fall madly in love with you, "
Hearing ways in which she could pleased Dante made Deena's ears twitched a little and she instinctively shifted her head towards Suzanne who in turn whispered a few words into her ears that turned Deena's entire face as red as a tomato, if she could release steam from her ears, she would have done so by now.
"But!! Mrs...?" Deena tried to ask a few questions but was immediately interrupted.
"Nonsense!! Don't ever call me that. Just call me Mom, after all you're my son's future wife,"
"W....wife?" Those words clearly brought Deena into cloud nine as she couldn't hear anything else for a while with her mind drifting into a time where she would be recognized as the woman of the man of her dreams.
