After a while, he tentatively called out,
“Lily?”.
Lily still didn’t respond.
Seeing this, he sighed inwardly and went silent, his hold around her subconsciously tightening a little.
Lily opened her eyes, and looked down at his hands, her lips curling up slightly. Then, she finally spoke up.
“Young master, I won’t lie and say I’m fine with this situation, I am not. But I understand your need for women, especially since you still can’t control your bloodline. So, don’t worry. I’m not angry at you.”
Max heaved a sigh of relief. Then he heard her continue.
“However, I have a request, the same request Sister Sera made.”
“If it’s not an urgent situation, like with Lady Ella or Sister Claire, please try to keep your hands off other women. Can you do that?”
Sigh!
Sighing, Lily stirred in his embrace, turned around and sat on his lap facing him, her legs on either side of his waist. This position was so tempting that he felt himself harden.
“…”
Lily was about to say something serious when she felt his thing twitch and looked at him blankly.
“Cough! Sorry, it has a mind of its own.”
Lily ignored his words, though a faint blush had appeared on her cheeks contours.
Looking into his eyes, she put on a serious expression and said, “Young master, if you like them, I won’t say anything because your happiness is everything for me.”
Max felt his heart melt when he heard this.
“However, are you sure you will be able to handle several women? Will you be able to take care of each of us, give us the equal amount of love and attention? Please carefully think about it.”
“But I’ll make sure none of you ever feel left out or not loved.”
His words put a smile on her face. She put her arms around his neck, leaned forward and kissed him.
She then lowered her gaze, a pink blush adorning her face as she hugged him and whispered in an almost inaudible voice, “…please make sure you love me just a little more than others, okay?”
Max grinned, and hugged her tightly, “I will, baby.”
Meanwhile, after waiting for more than half an hour, Sera had become worried.
She was aware of Lily’s situation and thus feared if something had gone wrong when he tried to wake her up.
After all, he had only taken less than two hours to heal Sophie. Compared to her situation, Lily’s condition was a minor one since she was only unconscious, but it had already been an hour.
“Maybe Sir Max has already woken her up and they are talking right now which is taking some time?” Claire reasoned, trying to assuage her worries.
Sera nodded, and waited.
But after waiting for another fifteen minutes, she once again became worried.
Although she didn’t know Lily, she knew Max really loved her and if something happened to her, he would be hurt, which she didn’t want to see. This was why she was getting worried.
Claire was surprised to see this. It hadn’t been even a few hours since they met but she was already so deeply in love with him?
After a while, she suggested, “Ms. Sera, maybe we should check if everything’s alright.”
Sera shook her head, “No. We can’t afford to distract him.”
She looked at her and said, “Call me just Sera. We are now a family, so there is no need for any formality.”
Claire looked at her in surprise.
Even though they were both Max’s women, Claire felt she was inferior to her because neither was she young like her, nor was she strong or had high status. So, she wanted to remain respectful and not offend her.
‘It seems she isn’t like those arrogant noble ladies I’m used to interacting with.’
She thought. Then, she smiled politely and nodded, “Okay. I’ll call you Sera then. You can also call me just Claire.”
Creak!
Just then, the door to Lily’s room opened, attracting their attention.
They then saw Max walk out, holding the hand of a very graceful and stunningly beautiful girl in a white dress.
Sera sighed in relief when she saw them. Then, her gaze fell on Lily and she fell in a trance.
‘She is so beautiful. Even the third princess isn’t her match.’ The thought rose in her mind.
Claire was also mesmerized by her beauty. But she quickly snapped out of it. She then felt her aura and sighed. Although she wasn’t able to ascertain her mage realm, she could tell she was way stronger than her.
‘I’m really lacking too much compared to them.’
Watching Lily sweeping her gaze over them, Sera became nervous.
She didn’t feel nervous because Lily was more beautiful than her, but because she seemed a bit cold, just like Emily.
If Emily didn’t like her and didn’t accept her, She didn’t mind because Emily was just his sister, who they probably wouldn’t interact much with.
Lily, however, was different. They were sisters and were going to stay together.
Moreover, given how much Max seemed to care about and love her, she would probably become his main wife.
If she didn’t accept them, things could become difficult for them because they knew how harem usually worked.
Claire, on the other hand, was completely calm, or at least she wasn’t as nervous as Sera.
Just as she had told Max, she really didn’t care about anything else as long as Max took care of her and Kevin. If Lily didn’t like her, and made things difficult for her, so be it.
She only aimed to please Max and Max alone.
Max smiled at the duo, and introduced Lily, “She is Lily, my first woman.”
