(Drakken's POV)
"Do you seriously think I am stupid?" Saera asked me with a serious scowl, "I would like to know that."
I looked at her while Viktoria sat on my lap, "What's your deal?" I asked, "Where did this come from?"
We were sitting down at the table when she suddenly spoke up.
She stood up and walked over to me, leaning down towards my face, "You aren't that subtle." She said with a serious face, "Its been years of nothing but tension between you and Viserra"
I blinked, "Hm."
Her cleavage was showing and I was getting distracted by it.
She saw this and immediately grabbed my chin, "I am not joking here." She said seriously, "You want to fuck her? You want to hold her in your arms as you climax inside her? Go ahead. But don't do it in a way that makes you think we don't know what's going on!"
I looked at her, "We didn't have sex."
"But you have been groped by her, haven't you? And you have groped her." She said, "You have been intimate without penetration."
I stayed quiet for a couple of seconds, trying to gauge the situation. Was she upset? She was, it was obvious. But why?
Was it envy?
Was it frustration about trying to keep it hidden for a bit?
I was quite intrigued.
"Hm." I simply said
She cradled me as she pressed herself against me, "I am tired of all this….teasing." She said with anger in her tone, "Just Fuck and get it over with. It will be better for all of us."
"If I don't?" I asked with a raised eyebrow
"Your actions will result in dire consequences." She said, "Trying to keep it hidden. The children have eyes, Drakken. What would you do if they run into it, think they saw something they weren't supposed to because you were trying hard to keep it hidden, and they think something wrong? Have you considered that it is why Riktor is being the way he is?"
"Don't put that on me." I said, "Riktor is rebelling that way because you smother him too much. That is why he's been avoiding you lately, he doesn't wanna hear your bitching about him doing what he does."
She frowned, looking a bit hurt by what I said, "You…" She said before scowling, "Oh fuck you."
"Hm." I said as I held her waist, "Don't blame me for telling the truth."
She clutched my chin yet again, "If I personally catch any of them in the act." She said with a cold yet angry tone, "I will cut those wenches' fingers off and stick a hot iron up their holes and-"
"Shh." I covered her mouth with my hand, "I like this light on you. So overprotective, so angry. It arouses me, Saera. But you need to learn when to limit yourself when it comes to the boys. Sometimes you can be overbearing."
She smacked my hand away, "I am their mother!!"
"I know." I told her, "And they are my sons."
She stood up and began to stomp away, "I said what I said!!" She shouted as she made her way to the door, "I catch any of them and they are dead!"
**********
It was later that night, I was walking down the hallway in Riktor's wing, knowing what to expect.
I had the urge to go to Viserra's room and spend some time with her but I resisted. I had just finished pleasuring both Maegelle and Saera. Someone had to calm that fiery Saera and the only way I could is by taken her to the heavens; metaphorically.
As soon as I reached Riktor's door, it creaked open and I saw a woman walk out while holding some clothes. She was in a nightgown and it seemed she had her shoes and apron in her arms.
"Hm." I said as I stopped
The moment she saw me, her face went pale and her eyes widened. Tears began to form and I noticed her legs were giving out.
She collapsed on her knees and adverted her gaze, her entire body trembling.
"F-F-Forgi-..,.." she gulped, her voice trembling and barely audible
"Hm?" I tilted my head
I saw as tears dropped on the floor, her head hung down in shame. She was sobbing softly, trying to compose herself.
I crouched down, "Answer me this and tell me the truth," i told her, "Were you coerced?"
She didn't look at me nor did she respond to this for the first few seconds. She merely kept trying to keep it together.
I waited for her to answer.
"...n-no….." she managed
"Hm, okay." I said, "Here's another question; whose idea was it?"
She sniffed as she sobbed, "H-His.,….."
"His…" I repeated, "So it was consensual and you didn't refuse him, hm?"
"Y-Yes..." she sobbed
"Interesting." I said, "You do know he's significantly younger than you. And that it is punishable by death to be with someone his age."
She prostrated on the ground, "Mercy….." she sobbed, "I….I didn't refuse….because he…..he,…"
"Let me guess, he seduced you. Hm, yes. That's quite probable." I said with a sigh, "And it is something that I can understand. What a conundrum. You see, I need you to understand something."
I grabbed her by the chin and lifted her face up to see her, her eyes were covered in tears and snot came out of her nose. She really was afraid for her life.
"Mya and Maegelle protest this to protect you foolish women, who are merely targets of lust. But Saera? You best be careful." I said, "I will overlook this. Simply because your work was not impeded and you didn't rape him."
She looked at me, "M-My Lord…..?"
"But its the only chance you'll get." I told her, "Don't ever be in his bed again. Spread the word, none of you will be with him again. And if you're worried about him, you truly sre stupid; because the one you should worry about is holding your chin. And it takes a quick movement to end your fragile life. Do I make myself clear?"
"Father, what are you doing?" I looked up to see Riktor standing at the door, wearing pants only
I let go of the woman and waved my hand, sending him flying back into the room.
"We gotta talk, son." I said before straightening up, "Get lost, girl."
"Now."
