"Nihehe"
Lyuu was smiling and wagging her tail in an easily understandable manner.
Because of her tail, it was very easy to tell if she was in a good mood and when she had done something wrong.
Lyuu seemed to be a little embarrassed knowing that her emotions could easily be determined. She could also be seen several times saying, "Geez, this tail…!"
However, I didn't personally agree with her assessment as her tail was really nice to touch. She should keep it just the way it was.
"Oh, you're in a good mood, Lyuu."
"That's right, I'm in a good mood! Today is the day when I can monopolize Husband. Well, to commemorate this day, I'd like to call today Husband Monopoly Day from now on."
"Hmm, okay. As your husband, I'll allow myself to be sweetly monopolized. Come on, Lyuu. Tell me what you want your husband to do."
"Well, then, without reservation! Ehhh… ummm…"
"Hmmm?"
Thinking about it, her husband did a lot for her on a regular basis, so she couldn't think of anything in particular that she would like him to provide her.
Seeing Lyuu tilt her head while looking at me, I said in a joking manner, "You can ask me to do anything. I can even touch your tail, or your ears, or both of them at the same time."
"Husband, those are not my requests, but your requests."
"Please let me touch your tail and ears."
"Oh, you're finally being honest, aren't you?
Lyuu burst out laughing.
"I can't help it. I'm Husband's smart wife, so I'll accept your request. And since I am a very good wife to my husband, I'll be lenient in accepting your request. …Though you always touch me normally even without asking for permission."
"I already told you before, right? Your ears and tail are already mine. I don't need anyone's permission to touch what's mine. What belongs to my wife belongs to me, and what belongs to me belongs to me! Hahahaha, I am a Demon Lord of greed! Now, my wife. Give them to me in contemplation."
"Yes, yes. Here are your wife's ears and tails."
Saying this, Lyuu sat on my lap.
Her back was resting against my body.
Because of my height, her ears were just in front of my mouth.
"Mm! –Mm, that's great! First, this tail! It's so fluffy, shiny, and so comfortable to the touch. Well groomed and beautiful. I want to use it as a pillow. And the ears! They are firm and silky, and also very comfortable to touch. …and they have a great texture as well!"
The ears were at a perfect height, so I gave one of them a sweet bite with my mouth, making Lyuu jolt.
"Hyah! Hey, hey, husband, don't make me make strange noises! It's making me twitch."
"Patience, my wife! This is mine!"
"Oh, dear…you know, because of husband's constant insistence on this belonging logic, it has become a common practice in our house. Especially Nell. She touches my ears and tail a lot, and she touches Lefi's and Layla's a lot, too."
Well, I watched that scene, as well.
Lyuu continued, "Nell seems to be the most suitable person to be by the Demon Lord's side. She has the freedom to do as she pleases. Isn't she a Hero? Then why does she seem more suitable as a Demon Lord than a Hero?"
Actually, in our dungeon, Nell was among the most free of them.
Of course, she was a very strong and reliable wife, but she was also very faithful to her desires.
She would usually say, "I don't have a lot of time to spend with everyone! So I have to have a lot of skinship when I'm home!"
Well, there was no doubt that she had a temperament of wanting to be spoiled.
Moreover, in her case, she was usually rarely at home and only for a short time at that, so she probably felt a little lonely.
"Well…Nell is a person who is very much influenced by Husband, for better or worse. Well then, I would like to follow Nell's example and be faithful to my desires! Specifically, Husband, please hug me from behind!"
Lyuu sat her hands in a hailing gesture, a posture that made it easier to be embraced.
"Hm, okay! I will give you as many hugs as my wife desires in response to your offering of your ears and tail in devotion."
Saying this, I hugged her from behind.
Lyuu's body was soft and warm.
I could smell my beloved wife's scent.
"Your body is so warm!"
"Is it? I think that might be the case. Our race has more body hair than everyone else, but I'm still sensitive to the cold. My hands get cold easily."
"Oh? Oh, it's true. They are cold. Well, then, I, your husband, will warm them as much as I can."
I held her hands in mine.
When we put our palms together and intertwined our fingers, Lyuu also squeezed back.
"Hehehe, thank you. …Today is a good day after all. A very, very good day."
"If you want, I'll make tomorrow and the day after that a much better day."
Lyuu rested the back of her head on my shoulder and looked up at me from below.
We both looked at each other and laughed.
