Chapter 38 - The meeting with Auroras mother

For the rest of the day, Camilla did not let go of Thanatos. Today was her day, and nobody would take him away from her for today.

The other three did not even think about doing that because they had one simple rule they set up back in their days as students.

It was the rule not to interfere when they talked to Thanatos or made some progress. They had this rule because of their friendship.

They had been normal friends even since their school years, and they wouldn't want that friendship to break apart for a mere reason like interfering in someone else's business.

Even then, they agreed that eventually they would all be Thanatos' wives together, and because of their long friendship, they accept each other's progress.

They felt the connection with him anyway; if it took a little longer, it would not matter; the connection cannot be cut.

Being jealous was okay; watching was fine; but adding to the destruction of the moment just to get his attention was something they absolutely did not have to do.

Today was Camilla's coming-of-age ceremony; they prepared presents, and one of them was to let her have a full day together with Thanatos, and tomorrow would be Aurora's day. Only she and he are together at home.

She did not take his first kiss, but she will be the one who makes him addicted to it. Premarriage sex was not allowed, but kissing and fooling around was alright, and the day they would get married, they would have a hot fivesome.

The day flew by way too fast for Camilla, but it was also the best day she had in her whole life. For the last few years, she was a maid who had to serve Thanatos, but now she was her lover and nothing less.

Soon the sun disappeared from the horizon, and everyone searched for a place to sleep this night. Waking back to the academy would take too long, so Helene gave the women the offer to sleep at their place, but they refused.

Which means Aurora, Luna, and Rena refused, while Camilla, Haruka, and Morgana took the offer. They had no place to sleep and no money to sleep at a hotel. They separated, and soon everybody fell asleep.

However, Camilla was the only one this night who could not sleep; this whole time she had to think about what she did with Thanatos in the dressing room. She could not believe herself. She forced herself on him, kissed him, and all of that came back.

As she remembered it, the feeling of Thanatos, the boner who pressed against her all of the time, made it impossible for her to sleep.

'It is way too much; there is no way that something like this is going to fit in here. Camilla thought while looking down on her precious place.

The long night went by, and the sun arose from the horizon, and Thanatos, together with his mother and Aurora, made their way to the Crimson clan to meet Aurora's mother.

Thanatos once again had no idea why or how Aurora's mother and his mother went to school together. Evidently, Luna's mother too went to the academy, but she was two years younger than them. They heard from each other but never met.

Helene was excited about this whole situation; she would see her old friend and, together with that, see how her son behaved when he was at the home of a woman he loves. She was well aware of his feelings for all three of the other girls at first glance.

Still, seeing how he behaved in situations similar to this was something she would never want to miss.

This whole romantic relationship between her son and her future daughters-in-law was her highly personal romance series that only she could watch, and she would soak up every single episode.

The Crimson Clan was located outside of Memento City. With quick steps, they came closer and closer to the property, and soon you could see its walls.

It was a huge mansion that towered high above the walls. It was as if this mansion was trying to showcase the power of this clan.

Thanatos, however, was not impressed by the mansion; he was impressed by the inner life that was behind the wall.

Everywhere there were trees with red leaves, it looked as if autumn had been trapped in this place and had never been released.

On the floor, leaves were lying around that gave off a beautiful red tone. It was not the same red as Aurora's hair and eyes. But still radiated a beauty that had its own brilliance.

A man who wore a suit greeted all of them and guided them to Aurora's mother. They walked through the estate until they arrived at a huge door. The door looked as if it were heavy and let nothing inside that should not be behind these doors.

The man knocked on the door and soon received an answer from a female voice. The man opened the door with much force; he needed to do this in order to even be able to open it.

As they looked inside the room, they saw a woman with long, crimson-red eyes and long hair sitting in a chair, her hair hanging down to her knees.

She had soft, slightly wavy hair that hung down her body like silk. Her skin had the same tanned tone as Aurora's; it looked natural and fit perfectly.

Aurora had always envied her mother's silky hair, but she was grateful for one thing, and that was that she had the same genes as her.

Aurora's mother's legs and buttocks had the same perfect size and shape. Aurora and her mother were truly the women with the most beautiful buttocks and legs.

"Ophelia, it's been such a long time." Helene jumped right into Ophelia's arms and hugged her good old friend; she had not seen her for such a long time.

"Helene, you are right. Why did it take you so long to come here, and oh, who is the youngster behind you?"

Ophelia looked behind Helene and pointed in a direction. Helene followed the direction and saw that the finger was pointed right at her son. Helene showed a bright smile and said it with all of her pride.

"That over there is my beloved son, Thanatos!" Helene made gestures as if she announced the arrival of a celebrity, then leaned forward towards Ophelia's right ear and whispered to her, "And between the two of us, your future son-in-law."

Helene blinked her eye as a sign of understanding and then walked away. Ophelia grinned from one ear to the next as she saw Thanatos.

Aurora already had a bad feeling as she saw the smile on her mother's face; it was the face she ever made when she saw something that caught her interest, and there was nothing she would have been more interested in than her future son-in-law.

"I am pleased to meet you, Thanatos. Are you friends with my daughter? Ophealia asked.

Thanatos already knew what she meant by that and answered in a way that nobody would have understood.

"A little bit more than that, but yes, and I am truly pleased to meet you. A wish of mine came true right now."

All of them were surprised when they heard what Thanatos said right now. However, the one who was shocked the most was Aurora, with her head spinning and trying to process what Thanatos said right now.

'A little bit more than a friend; what the hell does he mean with that?' Aurora's thoughts went crazy, and soon her mind went blank.

"Really, why was it one of your wishes to meet me?"

As Aurora heard that, she awoke from her thoughts and imagined way more than what was really happening: 'It has to be because she is beautiful; no, mother, I love you, but I won't give you my husband.'

Aurora's thought became even more ridiculous, and then she finally got the joke out of Thanato's mouth.

"You are known to be one of the strongest female grim reapers, and on top of that, you are the mother of Aurora. Why wouldn't I have the wish to meet you and talk to you about some matters concerning your daughter?"

"AHAHAHA! I like you, boy; if you want to talk to me about my daughter, feel free to do that whenever you want, and I am pleased that you recognize me for my strength."

Ophelia was known to be one of the generations of power; the members of that generation that had these names were grim reapers that were all born in the same generation but had enormous powers that riveled even the old and mighty grim reapers.

Ophelia and Helene were two members of this group; it was not clear who was the strongest among them, but everyone had respect, even old grim reapers like the director of the Dyrtharion Academy.

"I like that you have guts, boy; feel free to stay and come here whenever you like, but don't fool around too much with my daughter; I am not ready to become a grandmother by now."

Aurora's face blushed heavily as she heard that. Thanatos showed his bravery and did not react in the slightest.

After the talk with Rena and Luna, he realized something: that he was himself and that nobody could say anything else. All these 180 years of his life he lived as it was expended by someone with the name Thanatos Gravestone II. But right now he was his true self; he was the sharp-tongued Thanatos who feared no one and loved to say what he thought.

"I will try to consider that, but you never know. And thanks, I will come here often and meet Aurora, and maybe then get taught one or two things from you too."

Ophelia liked Thanatos even more; even if she was a grim reaper, there were still many people who feared talking to her because she was comfortable and honest.

It was refreshing to talk to someone who had the guts to talk with her in that way.

"I will consider what you said just now and remember it. But for now, I think you should spend time with my daughter, who stands absentminded over there.

Ophelia pointed at Aurora, who stood there, not moving a single centimeter. Thanatos walked towards her and talked to her, trying to bring her back to reality.

"Let's go, Aurora; show me around."

Aurora grabbed Thanato's hand and rushed out with him.

"I didn't know that your son was this bold, Helene."

Helene looked with a proud expression at the door her son left a few seconds ago.

"Me too, but I like this side of him the most." With the smile of a proud mother, Helene looked at the door and then turned towards her good old friend, ready to talk about everything she had experienced since they last met each other.

'Who knew that you would finally show your true self?
