Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!
Chapter 265 - 265 - What just happened?

What did I just do?! Instead of telling him that our status quo is fine and I can help him out with his mana outbursts through the orbs, I dug myself a trap! Did I just tell him to wait for my response till next year? Did I just praise myself for at least delaying being hit by a bullet instead of dodging it? What nonsense am I spouting!

Aaaarrrgghhh! Damn it! Damn all these beautiful men with expressive eyes that I can't say no to!

I adored Grandpa Mage from the first time I met him, that's for a fact but that feeling doesn't extend to his brat of a grandson. That guy is a total red flag from the first time we met and it did not improve even after meeting him a few times after that.

Lark was desperate but he tried to woo me. I understand the resonance and the desperation but Keeran's way of doing things tend to scare people away instead of making them like him. I swear I feel creeped out and annoyed whenever I feel him near me.

He then suddenly changed his tactic and started being calm but brutally honest about what he feels and thinks. Why does he have to be so sincere in telling me about his feelings? The hardest thing to turn down is someone's sincerity to be with you!

I have realized that so far, my weakness are men's beautiful faces which is abundant in this world, their sincerity (I haven't met men who tried to scam me so far), crying (connected to the first weakness) and my men being jealous since I find them cute (It makes me want to tease them some more and then eat them good after). I know my weaknesses but I still fall for these things each and every time. If I do not strengthen my heart and my resolve, I might as well forget the word "No". I will definitely end up with a harem of hundreds of SINCERE men for sure.

AAAHHH! Just let next year's me think about the issue with Keeran. I just can't... Why did I even have to go to the magic tower? Why?!

As I arrive inside my suite in the Moonlight Inn, I fell face first on the bed then kicked and punch my pillows in frustration. I went at it for several minutes before I sat up and breathed out heavily. I used time reversal magic to get the pillows back in their pristine states, returning all the scattered contents inside the pillow bags just like before I used them as punching bags.

I calmly went out of my room towards the restaurant. Everything will be alright with good food and some intimate time with my husbands later. I have indeed promised those two that I will have spend some couple time with each of them. I'll have Kayden spend the night with me first, Lark the next day then I will drop by Dimitri before attending the birthday banquet. If I just focus on my adorable husbands, I won't feel so down anymore.

Keeran's POV

I have already ran out of ideas on how to meet the woman who I belatedly realized that I liked and was resonant with at the same time. YES. I am past the confusion and denial stages and have accepted that I have been trapped in her claws for life.

When I said I have done all the thinking I could, I mean I've done every single tactic I could think of. First, I have tried camping out in the room of questions to see if she will come each day. Second, I have also done all my recent research and experiments near the entrance of magic tower which I have never done before since I value my privacy. I just made the decision that it is more important to meet her than my need for privacy. Lastly, I even placed a barrier on the main entrance of the tower just so that I can immediately detect if she arrives. I never thought I have the makings of a stalker, honestly.

I have successfully detected her a couple of times but I expected no less from someone who was able to get out of my sticky spell easily. She teleported away to escape me each and every time, leaving me frustrated and heartbroken more and more.

After I accepted the fact that I resonated with her and that I liked her, I thought things will become more chaotic but surprisingly, my mind became calmer. I can think more clearly and focus on my tasks afterwards. I now truly believe that delaying important life decisions really mess up with your senses, mind and heath.

I remember how I started from being in denial, then confused and then in pain. My mana outbursts started less than a month from the time I first met her and it has happened every single month after that.

The first time it happened, I was in extreme pain like being burned from the inside while also being dipped in boiling water from the outside. There were many times I wanted to die but I don't want to leave my grandfather behind. Though we fight a lot, we only have each other in this life.

I may be averse to marrying and giving him grandchildren before but now that I met the one I am willing to do all of that with, I don't want to die a virgin! I am too amazing to not pass my genes to the next generation. I have deluded myself with those crazy thoughts every time I had mana outbursts to keep my mind sane. I get it that it sounds weird but that's how I am.

I thought the first outburst was the worst but then the second one came exactly a month after. I was in so much pain that I could not even stay conscious for that long. My body just shuts down every few minutes, trying to pull me through the ordeal. I thought, may be that was my limit and that was it for me but then sudden relief came.

At first it was like a cool breeze that touched my skin. Then it was like cool water bathing me, cooling my insides as well. My mana calmed almost immediately. I actually felt scared first, instead of relief I thought maybe it was that brief relief that a person is rumored to experience before death.

All of that belief was crushed when I felt someone removing my clothes one by one. I started to pray that this was only a dream brought about my frustration of possibly dying as a virgin.

I calmed down when I thought that it was my grandfather that came to help me out. He should have felt pity on me becUse surely on any normal day he would have just dumped me in a tub full of cold water with all my clothes on. There will be no mercy at all.

After all my clothes were removed, I was carried gently princess-style then I heard the sound of running water. I was laid inside a tub full of warm water gently and someone started soaping my body up. That devious hand touched every part of my body. I swear it lingered a bit on my butthole and groin area like a pervert! I sucked it all up and repeated in my head that it was just a dream over and over until the bath ended.

I then heard an unfamiliar female's voice calling "Grandpa" then the familiar voice of my grandfather came from farther away from where I am. He said something like a murmur that my fuzzy brain could not understand. I then heard the unfamiliar voice again, "Okay. Fine."

After those two words, I felt my body lifted out of the water. I was dried with a towel and I was clothed. I was brought back to the bed afterwards. The next thing I felt was a little bit of prickling pain and a moment of high heat as a hand touched my womb area.

I knew from experience that it was a seal. Why is this person sealing me? What was it for? Why is it in that area? WAIT. That's not the point. Did a woman just bathe me?!

I have a lot of questions that I wanted to ask that woman who perversely touched my body and took advantage of my body being unconscious in the guise of bathing me. The woman knew my mind was working! She whispered something to my ear before she unclothed me but my brain couldn't process it that well.

As I remember all these things, I involuntary told Luna that I indeed went crazy for a while trying to look for her. Before I knew it, I have said even weirder things to her that may make her veer away from me even more. Ugh. My grandpa is right, I'm hopeless in these things.

When I ended my weird confession, I laughed awkwardly about my situation and I could only hide my eyes. For the first time, I cried not only of embarassment but due to all the things I've gone through only for me to mess up and end with a confession like this. It was not a love confession but of insanity! Which woman would want to be near a crazy man?

Just when I thought that our conversation won't get any weirder than it is now, she suddenly introduced herself formally and admitted that she was the one who bathed me! She even started asking me weird questions. I totally expected to be fully rejected but she told me to wait till next year. I don't know how to feel about it but it is better than not seeing her ever again.

Everything that happened after that was a blur. The last thing I remembered was a handshake, being pulled closer then... Did she just kiss my lips? What?! Before I was able to react, she has teleported away. I think my brain has stopped working.
