Chapter 145 145 - Different Perspectives[Other Character's POV From Ch143+144]
The moment they entered the city gates on the palanquin, Margarette\'s heart was seeping with melancholy. On one hand, she was happy to be with her master on a vacation on the other, she felt stripped of any exclusivity with the man she loved most. Looking at his back as he sat in front of her eyes, she felt left out in a lot of ways and wanted to snatch him away from the rest of his servants.
\'As if I can do that.\' She thought as the drummer and pipers brought her back to her senses.
Drowning her emotions, she gulped them down her throat. Forced to focus on the procession, she put up a fake smile and glanced about the curious gazes of the citizens. But right as she was about to give up on her gloom, Haruki leaned back onto her body. Feeling the warmth of his skin brushing against her body, the angst in her heart was replaced with amused bafflement.
\'What is he doing?\' Right as that thought crossed her mind, Haruki shot his gaze up at her with his disguised painted lips puckered lightly for a kiss. \'Me? Really?\'
With a quick glance at the other women, she felt exalted for having been chosen from all the others. It served as a sign that her master\'s love for her was just as strong as for anyone else in their group.
\'You\'re stupid Margarette, you know he loves you too, maybe not as much as his first crush, Asuka, but you\'re not that far behind either!\' Feeling soulfully rejuvenated by that realization, Margarette leaned over Haruki\'s face and pressed her lips together with his.

Bearing witness to the gold showering down the city streets, Athena, as well as Alice, felt extremely ticked off by their master\'s wastefulness. Being around a greedy winger for most of their lives, neither of them had managed to prevent his kinks and irking from rubbing off on them. But the annoyance from wastefulness had turned into something much different when they saw him pamper Margarette with kisses.
Their bond, not yet spiritual in nature, was completely held together by the sexual interactions they\'d had so far, as well as the promise of safety towards the rest of their people. So chucking their grievances aside, both of them flung themselves over to him and began licking him over the cheeks.
For a moment Haruki was in a bit of shock, but upon realizing what they were doing, he turned to their faces and had fun giving them kisses one after the other. Feeling the taste of their bodies melting into his mouth, he almost felt delirious, but couldn\'t stop coiling his tongue around them.
After taking turns kissing them both, Haruki slipped his hand down their spine until it reached the fleshy bottom of them both. While she lacked in the upper section, just like her mom, she had a light chocolate ass that could sink Haruki\'s whole five fingers into their flesh.
Gloating in the moment, the duo continued the shameless display of licking Freya\'s body over the clothes until Haruki decided to stop by a tavern.

Walking into the Tavern, Riley was already feeling a bit left out. And although she didn\'t want to directly indulge in sexual activities with Haruki, she too felt a need to hopelessly cling to someone for a brief moment of reprieve.
And so when Moriyana came down the stairs and Haruki and her got into some sort of conversation. Riley clambered onto Margarette and hugged her from the side. Huffing out from the tiring routine of the day, she closed her eyes to rest a little. Noticing the drowsiness in her eyes, Margarette made her way to the stool with Riley clinging onto her tightly.
Once she sat down on it, Riley settled down on Margarette\'s lap and leaned back on her body. Wrapping her hands around her daughter Margarette began gently brushing her hair so she could be soothed into slumber.
Not too long after the owner went out to arrange the booze, Riley was sleeping about soundly. Comforted by the embrace of her stepmother, the feeling of loneliness escaped her mind, and the only thing she wanted at the moment was to stay like this forever.

Neglect had become a theme, it was crushing the souls of everyone in Haruki\'s party. The overtaking of the kingdom, the aftermath of its processions, and everything that had transpired before left the master of the group with little to no time to spend with his servants. Busy in their own right, even the servants of Haruki were to blame for their own repressed feelings. Despite being demons, they were trying to repress their desires while prioritizing work.
Asuka was no stranger when it came to repressing her emotions, and now that she\'d fallen back into that trap, a strange curse seemed to be eating her up from the inside. Standing by the door, her eyes fixed on her master taking off his dress, she felt deserted despite being surrounded by people.
Her mind racing with such lonesome thoughts register a knock at the door right beside her. Opening it up she took the baggage out of the hands of the disguised demon who\'d brought it upstairs for them. By the time she turned around, Haruki was already laying down on the bed surrounded by all the other servants.
Breezing through her thoughts, she got the girls away from him with Lulu and even got Haruki up on his feet. But failing to control her expression, her eyes strained with discomfort. Being as loving as he was towards her, Haruki coddled her up and soothed her nerves with the assurance of his love for her.
But feeling jealous by those claims, both her master and her were assaulted by everyone around them. Especially Moriyana who jumped onto Haruki from the back, Making him fall on top of her. However, given that she could feel his body squeezing up against her chest, she had nothing to complain about.
Coiling her arms around Haruki\'s naked body, she pressed her panting lips against his still-painted lips. The cold touch of their tongue sent a chill down her spine, and the brush of his skin against hers, simply iron out all the doubts from her very soul.
"I love you more than you love me," she whispered, gazing into her lover\'s eyes.
"I-"
"Oh shut up, you two!" Interrupting the blissful moment once again, Moriyana butted into the conversation.
"Miss Freya, the booze is ready," And from the owner\'s voice coming from the other side of the door, it didn\'t seem like Moriyana was the only one interested in interpreting the two. "Do you want me to send it to the bath so you can enjoy it in the warm waters?"
\'That sounds good.\' Asuka and Haruki thought the same thing.
