By the time they finished, the four all have red faces, looking everywhere but him. Not like he did not do the same, looking at the wall instead of them.
For the four, this is their worse fear, as he is likely disgusted by their action. However, reality is different and the reason for him looking at the wall is because he wanted to die of embarrassment.
'Argh! They saw me having sex with my lovers!' he screamed in his mind. Only after half an hour passed did they look at one another on the face, blushes decorating their cheeks and ears.
"Is that all?" he asked with the calmes tone he could give, appearing nonchalant. As for the girls, they thought he was being cold, which cause them to be distraught, even if they deserve it.
"No, we have something else to say," Ryker nodded, motioning for them to continue. Once again, Dory took the lead, as she usually did, being an authority figure among the four even if she is the second youngest.
"I, no, we all love you!" the blonde cried out, causing Ryker to let out an intelligent "huh".
"You might hate us for peeping on you, but we truly love you! Brya and I already crushing hard on you when you face of against the noble heir. That crush turned more genuine the more we interacted with you.
Unlike others, who gave us praise because of our status, you gave them because they are true. You even criticize us, which we deserve at that time. You treated us like regular people instead of princess that is look up by everyone else.
Not to mention, you did not try to gain our favor. At all. Just treating us like you did with my brother, as friends. We don't really have friends like you are, and the rest of your family. More like acquaintances.
That just make this friendship even more dear to us. So, we want to keep it, and if possible, want it to become something more," Dory quickly took a deep breath, having said her piece in one breath.
She look away, afraid of the results. Fearful of rejection. Yet, the blonde soon find herself envelope by a hug, by someone bigger than any of the women in the room, with muscular physique.
"I don't hate you, just embarrassed, but not hate. You also confessed what you did, though I don't expect you to confess after telling the truth," he let out an awkward laughter.
"Confessing after telling the truth is eldest brother's idea," she good the truth, making the dual-colored hair man to raise his brows.
"He said, rather than kept in ourselves after telling you what happened, it better to let everything out of our chest," Dory then leaned in closer, basking in his warmth as the hug get slightly tighter.
At the side, the other three, Brya mostly, looked at her in jealousy.
Seeing how he is not angry at them peeping, Sela opened her mouth, "As for the two of us, we want to say sorry at first for being mean to you during the first time we met," Ryker nodded, knowing that is the truth, and he will not sugercoat it to make them feel better.
"Then, you defeat us and we acknowledge your strength and ability. As we followed you completing the task given by the Crown Prince, the acknowledgement turned into admiration. Then, the day you saved us from being raped by that bandit.
That day is mortifying for us, as we do remember when we tried to jump on you," both Sela and Adia turned red, remembering what they try to do.
"Yet, even at out most vulnerable, you did not take advantage of us, instead sealing our strength before helping healed us. Then, you make sure we are fine for the weak, and yes, we remembered that as well," the two could still remember how his hands are on their midriff, warmth covering their belly as he chanelled life qi to them.
"You make sure we survive. And when we thought you can't get any better, you manage to get information from the bandit. The other told us how you somehow get the knowledge before giving it to the alchemist. Sure, you are not the one who make the antidote, but you are the reason it is possible.
When we learned it, we could not help but feel our heart pounding. You had gone all this far to save us. How can we not fall in love you after such act?" Sela looked away after pouring her heart out, though Ryker could see the red dusting her cheeks.
A smile formed on his lips as he pulled them closer, phantom hands pulling them towards him and Dory. When they get in range, he opened his arms and wrapped it around the four, who took the chance to lay on his chest.
The five basked in the silent, before Dory decided to open her mouth, "Ryker," she said. "I, no, we like to ask you one more thing,"
"Sure," he answered, as his hands stroke Dory and Sela long hair.
"Can, you, ... do it with us. Have sex with us I mean," it is a good thing he could control himself well, or he would let out choked coughing. The other three did not react any better, though they only blush from it.
"Isn't it too sudden?" he told her.
"Well, Eldest Brother suggested it," Ryker nodded while the plan to brutally murder Lariz began to form in his mind.
"But," the plan stop conjuring, "even if he did not tell me, I think I would ask you that question," she paused before resuming her explanation.
"It just, watching how you did it with the other," her hand slipped under her skirt, "it arouse me. Despite my beast, I still remember vividly what happen. And I want for you to do it with me,"
The look on her face as she stared at him is one filled with determination. And it infected the others as well.
"I-I also want it!"
"If the princesses allowed it, so do it!"
"My answer is the same as Sela,"
Ryker let out a sigh. Usually it takes longer for the one that come from prestigious background. After all, both Shuri and Hylla took their sweet time, mostly spend on getting to know one another better, and making sure the feeling they had are not fleeting crush.
Then again, Dory and Brya did spend a long time with him, even if it mostly as friends and acquaintances. It make sense why when their feeling are reciprocated, they will asked for such thing.
"Sure, I will take the lead,"
