Beloved Seraph II

While Grayfia felt shame at her first encounter with her master, Richter was considering why his behaviour towards Gabriel had been like so in the past. He came to a conclusion rather quickly... during that time, he had seen Gabriel more like a daughter than a possible partner.

Little did Grayfia know; it was Gabriel's inherent naive nature that made Richter not see her as a threat and be inherently drawn to her... not in a sensual way, but more in a familial way... this was Gabriel's vane... the factor that made her forever unable to accomplish her mission.

She was the most gorgeous and sexually-inducing angel, but... she'd never know how to properly use her assets.

"We spent time together, talked and spoke... and spoke and spoke some more... I loved so much all the time you spent telling me your stories... your conquests in the Primal Realm... your frustrations over Destiny... over Ether, over Monique, over Celestine... every single one of your past lovers, over your enemies, over your friends... over what you liked and hated. I loved it so much, Richter... I loved you, but I didn't know at that time what that was..."

Her smile receded to give way to regret, "With all the time we had together arrived at realisation... I had to make you fall in love with me, conquer your heart... as a Seraph I was unable to feel love, it was prohibited to me!"

Gabriel arrived at the peak of her issue, she held Richter hoping he would understand... she was a Seraph, an entity designed by the Biblical God to not feel 'lust' or bodily attraction towards anyone; she could at most be someone else's best friend, but she couldn't love the same way a man loves a woman... this was portrayed in her innocent behaviours and actions... and that was the way they were perceived by Richter as well.

"Why you didn't say anything...? you didn't trust me." He questioned her, outraged... he would have understood as far-fetched as it was that some foreign race was unable to feel that way.

"If I told you that... would you have loved me?" She asked with a depressed smile, so dark and unbecoming of a bright angel.

"..." All Richter could do was remain silent, he wouldn't have fallen for her if he knew she was unable to conceive his children... just like he rejected countless goddesses, he'd have rejected her too.

"What you most longed for was to have another child... I couldn't give you that... but I couldn't tell you either, or I'd fail the mission. I'm so sorry... *sob* I couldn't... I couldn't seduce you... I couldn't give you that warm kinship that you sought... you were depressed due to Lady Monique's passing... perhaps what you needed was a more intimate relationship with me, but... I could never give you that... you never saw me that way because I wasn't designed to be that way, unlike you, Grayfia"

Her contorted gaze then looked towards Grayfia, a devil... unashamed to show her intentions; swift enough to make the best moves to conquer her master's heart... eventually accomplishing her task and falling madly in love in the process.

Grayfia had no words to convey, deep inside... she felt pity. Pity for Gabriel's circumstances which she now understood. There are things that only a devil can do, and there are things only an angel can do... they're opposite existences.

"Gabriel..." Richter caressed her face with his thumb, also understanding what her predicament had been, but he was still upset that she didn't trust him enough to share this.

"You never showed this hybrid humanoid form to me either..." Gabriel cleaned her tears and pouted, another jab to herself.

Richter sighed and then he felt something unexpectedly soft... Gabriel had taken his hand and placed it on her humongous soft chest. He took a firm grip, unable to take a whole grip of her delicious lump. Gabriel moaned slightly and smiled, her expression like the ripest tomato.

Grayfia twitched but resisted the jealous urges rushing into her.

"I can do it now... Lady Calliope changed the system... changed my nature. Now I'm allowed to feel lust... I'm allowed to conceive your child; I'm allowed to love you like a woman loves a man or a dragon... Richter, I love you... so much, please forgive me for leaving..."

Richter evaded her gaze but like a proper dragon he never stopped fondling her boob, this was something he needed to consider. Forgiving her was a possibility... but seeing her as a partner...

"You can see it, can't you?" Grayfia suddenly asked her, confusing both of them.

"Sorry?" Gabriel asked for clarification.

"Can you see master's affection for you?"

The Seraph bit her lips and nodded, her blush deepening as she stole a few glances at the Golden Dragon.

"How much, Gabriel?" Grayfia smiled as if she already knew the answer.

"F-Fifty... fifty per cent... it never increased more than that... it never would because I would never be able to take that step... and... if you would have done it in my stead... I would have fallen from grace, forever hating myself and you... before that happened and it hurt us both, I decided to surrender!"

"I expected you to come back as you usually did... perhaps I didn't fall in love with you completely, Gabriel... but your presence was helping me ".

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Gabriel continued to apologise and sob, but Richter had already made his answer.

He separated from her, initially making her feel she wasn't going to be forgiven, but then he took her chin and unashamedly placed a deep kiss on the Seraph's lips.

!!!

She gasped like a child whose dream just came true, her body quivered and her wings immediately protruded inadvertently... one of the feathers fell from her quivering wings... turning into gold the moment it touched the bed.

Gabriel's tears welled up in endless happiness while Grayfia stood up with a sigh, intending to leave the room and give her master some privacy. Deep inside, she felt good for him; it seems this was like a prickling needle which he never spoke about... and she rejoiced that in the end this was sorted out.

However, before she left, a hand gripped her wrist. She turned her confused expression around to see Richter release Gabriel's lips to look at her.

"Don't leave..."

"U-Uhm" Grayfia nodded with a deep blush, already aware of what was about to happen.
