Elayne III

The room was filled with ambrosial air as the scented candles gradually melted. There was a short chuckle coming from a girl who remained engrossed from Zeid's story.

He was talking about how he defeated three hundred slimes in one day and survived the nigh impossible scene. He kept Aqueshia and his ability to eat souls a secret, especially that he was an advocate of a witch. So he had to modify some, telling her he was just lucky.

Before they could even reach such a cordial exchange, Elayne sadly spoke about her hurtful past. Zeid who listened to her painful experience narrowed his eyes as ire developed towards Elayne's father. He gave her a small space, but not too much, allowing Elayne to speak without pressure.

Her mother died from giving birth. His father told her when she was still three that he loved her no matter what. He was caring and a doting father to her but things did change when she reached six. His father had never touched her nor caused her physical pain. But the words he sowed, ripped her heart to shreds.

Sitting on the bed while being three feet apart, Zeid asked Elayne if he had caused more trouble when he unknowingly embraced her. Elayne smiled softly as she shook her head.

With a blush on her freckled cheeks, she spoke: "No. I should be thanking you actually. If it weren't for you, I would've passed out."

Zeid faced her while keeping a distance. He knew himself that he could never convince her that she's pretty. Even with the help of his charisma, a scar on the heart is far from a cure. Only one can save her and that is her father. Now his only intention was to mollify her state.

"Is that so? Then you should know that you're not what you think you are. Your father was a blind man."

Elayne furrowed her eyebrows and asked softly: "What do you mean?"

"You're pretty, Elayne. And anyone who can't see it is a fool."

"I… I really don't want to talk about it. I know! You're an adventurer r-right?" pointing to his mark, "Tell me some story you've got on some of your quests!" although her voice was soft, her intonation was strong.

"I see, I have one."

Zeid began to speak about his encounter against three hundred slimes.

Time fleeted away and Elayne took a liking towards Zeid. She bit her lip and tugged his shirt, receiving his full attention.

With her thoughts drifting about her perverted owner, she recalled Maika's words. It was either to give her first to malice or finally make her resolve and give it to a better one.

"What is it, Elayne? Are you feeling unwell?" He asked upon noticing her reddened face.

"Umm… I-I wish to make love with you. I feel like your money would go to waste after going such a place and not receiving the pleasure you seek." She gradually decreased the space between them, "I'm not good at it, and in fact I'm nervous. But somehow I feel like I should give it to you before it's too late."

Now sitting near beside him, Elayne gave her best to mutter her next words. Her heart thumping heavily under her quite developed chest. Her eyes gleamed from the candlelight, resembling a thriving leaf.

"So please! I want to feel love even this just one time!"

She wouldn't just admit that she's pretty.

"I will."

Zeid grabbed held and caressed her cheek as he went in to kiss her. Their lips met with each other as ardent heat began to rise from the dimly lighted room. He held her gently by the nape, pressing her near him. Elayne grabbed the garment on his chest with both shivering hands that slowly calmed down. Both of them slowly fell to the bed.

Zeid undressed his upper garments, then his trousers. Breaking the kiss, Zeid knelt on the bed as Elayne stared at him with amazement. Zeid undressed her clothes, revealing her body to his naked eye. Her chest billowed in proof of her heavy breathing. The only difference was that it wasn't her hyperventilation.

He delivered gentle kisses upon her chest that slowly went down. Her thighs shrouded her mound, and Zeid asked her if she would gently open her legs. She had second thoughts at first but then speculated that they already went this far. There was no going back now, and soon she separated her legs.

Her mound met with his lips as Zeid began to taste her. His tongue mingled with her pussy, giving her fresh sensation. Amorous sounds left her lips and thus enlightening him. Knowing that his oral work was a success, Zeid stopped then asked for her consent.

"Should I?"

Elayne nodded.

[Aphrodisiac]

Upon receiving her permission, Zeid touched her clit with his fingers that secreted viscous liquids. Those liquids infiltrated her body and further spreading within her. The act caused her to feel new heights of sensation she had never felt before. She moaned under his touch.

Her pussy began to trickle with her love juice. Seeing this, Zeid knew it was time.

Zeid grabbed his rod and placed it within the entrance of her mound. Elayne bit her lip as she prepared for the pain like what the women who worked here told her after losing their first. But what came next didn't identify as pain, only further pleasure.

"Ahh~"

Slowly breaking her hymen numb from the [Aphordisiac] skill, Zeid gently pushed deeper. He stopped mid-way on his shaft and began to move at a slow and steady pace. Elayne grabbed the covers of the bed, unable to fight the sensation. She raised and tilted her head backward in pleasure. She squirmed erotically.

"Ahh~ Zeid, I-I want you to go faster… Ah~"

She didn't have to tell him as he was already increasing his pace. Soon his hip began to ram upon her buttocks, causing sounds of his hip clashing upon hers.

Zeid grabbed her legs and rested them on his shoulders. His hands took hold of her two smooth hips and continued his pace. In this position, Zeid has a better vantage point of view. Her breasts shook by his movements, like the surface of a river.

"Ah~ Ahhhh~ Ah~ Zeid…" She came.

"Zeid…"

"Zeid…"

Upon nearing his limits, Zeid pulled out and came. Elayne who laid drenched in her sweat didn't expect Zeid to climax upon her. Within Zeid's eyes, he saw a pretty girl, drenched in her sweat and his secretion, panting in ecstatic sensation.

[Harem Quest Complete]

"Wait, she became a member? Then that means…" She glanced upon the girl.

"…this girl… She has fallen for me."

Sadly, Zeid knew that she couldn't live this place. He had no intention meddling with someone's affair, especially someone strong and wealthy. He knew her owner was a strong adventurer because if he wasn't, then he won't be used by the king as one of his forces against the army of the East's Demon Lord.

Zeid couldn't bear leaving her behind but he had no other choice. He dressed and prepared for his leave.

"I'll come for you, Elayne. Be safe no matter what." Zeid's tone was solemn.

Elayne didn't know what he meant as she believes this was the last time she would ever see him. She only nodded and closed her eyes as lethargy soon invaded her mind.

"I'll…be safe no matter what…"

Zeid left the room and was greeted by Maika who leaned on the wall meters away. When she saw Zeid walking towards her, she stood properly and began to nag.

"How is she? And most of all did you enjoy it?! She's one of a kind!" Her behavior began to annoy him. "So? So? So? How was it?"

"She's fine and sleeping. I suggest you should keep her company and clean her up as well." Zeid faced her and narrowed his eyes. A crimson radiance emanated from his gaze as a chill voice soon escaped his lips. "Protect her no matter what."

Then left.

"What's wrong with that kid?" She pondered.

Given that she's twenty levels above him, she wasn't affected by his aura. But she could not avoid sensing it. Still faint yet she couldn't understand why he feels so different from all the other men.

"Meh, just my imagination, maybe."

Maika went inside the room he was previously in and saw the sleeping Elayne drenched in their mess. Luckily she bought a clean towel and a bucket of water and soon began cleaning her.

Maika's shoulder-length hair rippled as she began to clean Elayne. Her dark sharp yet ever-cheerful eyes moved from Elayne to the bucket, and back to Elayne.

"I wish you could smile like this, Elayne, forever." Soon tears trickled down on her cheek.

"I'm sorry, Elayne… This is all I can give you…"

Maika could've escaped this city with Elayne and give her a much suitable life. She treated her like a sister even though she calls her away. For the past five years, Elayne watched over her and only this day had she ever perceived her smile.

"I succeeded…"

Knowing that she caused this, she would take the blame when the owner arrives. To her, it was a small price to pay to see her smile. In truth, she had never expected her plan to work, much less find a benevolent youth to give her such a time. Whatever it is, that boy must have promised her something.
