The Dark Rebirth of Pandora: Revenge of the Abyss
Chapter 39: Getting Ready
CHAPTER 39: GETTING READY
"Your Majesty, now that dinner is over, shall we begin the meeting?" Varion asks as the maids clear the plates, at the end Zephyra was left without the blindfold because I asked for it.
After making me fall in love with her, I noticed how she had a golden hue the whole time, and beautiful but I still don’t know what color love is.
"No, first make yourselves comfortable in the guest room, I will resolve a matter and we will start our meeting in a few hours," I say as I get up to leave after speaking.
"Kaelith, come with me now." I have an idea about how to know the color of love. Kaelith loves me, so if I ask her how she loves me, I know her color will change, since she has never lied about loving me before, I can discover the color of love with her.
Soon Kaelith and I are walking through the corridors, I enter a random room with her and unwind my tail from my waist.
"Is there a problem, Your Majesty?"
"Kaelith... I’ve fallen in love with Zephyra..." Kaelith has a surprised look on her face that quickly changes to a distorted angry expression when she realizes the reason.
"THAT FUCKING BITCH, I’LL KILL HER!" Kaelith prepares to leave the room.
"If you hurt her, I’ll kill you, Kaelith," I say in a serious tone, making Kaelith freeze in place.
"...Tsk, Your Majesty, if you know you love her just because of an ability, why not just kill her?"
"I don’t care that it’s because of an ability... I’m going to make her mine. If she decided to use it on me, then she loves me too. If we love each other, there’s no reason to be against it... Putting that aside, I brought you here for another reason."
"Kaelith, tell me you love me." I command in a loud and clear voice.
"...I love you, Your Majesty," she says without fully understanding the implications.
"Not like that, talk about how much you love me, what makes you love me, that kind of thing." Soon Kaelith’s eyes shine with enthusiasm, replacing her anger as if it were a lie.
"I love everything about you, I love your delicate and cute gestures, I love your skin white as the clouds in the sky, I love your cute, assertive, daring and confident personality, I love your cruelty towards enemies, I love your beautiful black hair, I love your soft and cute features..."
"I love your divine body, I adore seeing the cute expression you make during meals, I love how your tail sways when you’re excited, I like how you become when you decide to be obscene, although I haven’t seen it yet."
"I like to see you serious, it creates a contrast with your cuteness, I like how you know how to be dominant, I wish you would do to me what you did to Elena, just imagining it... hmm."
"I like..."
I stop listening to this ramble, some about my appearance, others about my personality, details I didn’t even notice I did, throughout this explanation her color is pink and red, and different from the Crimson color I see with anger.
’So this is the color of love... but why was Zephyra’s color cyan, gold, and turquoise... what does she really feel for me? Doesn’t she love me? Or does Kaelith love me so much that her colors are different?’
Seeing these colors in Kaelith fills me with doubts, I’m extremely nervous, what do I do if she doesn’t love me? There’s no way she doesn’t love me, she used her ability on me, and of course she loves me, there must be an explanation for her colors, it shouldn’t be anything major.
During these musings, Kaelith hasn’t stopped talking, and so much that it’s kind of scary how she observes me intently, I decide to leave to plan how to confess to Zephyra.
"Kaelith, that’s enough, I understand you love me very much, but don’t do anything to Zephyra even if she used an ability on me."
"...Okay, Your Majesty, but please don’t be deceived."
"Don’t worry, I’ll make her mine and not the other way around. If there’s one thing I can be sure of, it’s that I won’t let her dictate this love, I’ll make her mine and not the opposite, she must follow what I want and act as I choose."
I notice how the relationship dynamic I want is different for each one, for Mikael I want him to dominate me, to fuck me hard and show his dominant side, but with Zephyra I want to dominate her, show that I’m the one dictating the relationship.
I wonder why it’s like this, maybe it’s because of the experience, Mikael was dominant from the beginning, being the one above me from start to finish, being oppressive and dominant, while Zephyra is more like a little doll, not being very dominant and just standing there not saying or doing much, just obeying her father.
I think this type of experience when getting to know someone dictates how I want to act in a relationship with them, which also explains my compulsion to make Elena only mine, because in our experience together she always focused on me, with me being the center of everything, in the meals, training, classes, and in the bath.
’Interesting...’ Realizing this is something I didn’t even know I had, but it explains some of my behavior in certain points, it also clarifies some of my doubts about myself.
’I knew it, Zephyra and I are destined, just by falling in love with her I discovered more about myself...’ I start walking excitedly through the corridors.
"Maid, come here." I call one of the servants who comes to me enthusiastically for receiving the slightest attention.
"Yes, Your Majesty, tell me what you need."
"Gather some maids... make me cute and adorable but seductive and beautiful, I want to be the most beautiful and cute I can be... I-I’m going to confess." I say the last part with embarrassment and blushing, I see the maid get happy and excited, she soon runs off quickly, informing several maids along the way.
Soon a crowd of maids appears.
"!!!" They grab me and quickly take me to a closet, a ton of dresses are on display, there are several mirrors and makeup counters in sight.
"QUICKLY, WE HAVE TO PREPARE YOUR MAJESTY TO BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND CUTE OF ALL!" The maid I initially spoke to is acting as the leader of these other maids who start taking off my clothes while running around frantically, they are all very excited and enthusiastic about this.
"Tell us more, Your Majesty, what is your second love like?" The maids seem to already know that I love Mikael, at this point I’m not surprised, news spreads like wildfire in this castle.
"W-Well, it’s Zephyra, the chief’s daughter of the dragon tribe."
"And how was it?"
"I-It was electrifying, the moment I fell in love, she seemed so... divine... her beautiful red eyes matching her lovely pink hair, her curvaceous mature body, I just wanted to leap at her and make her mine right there in front of everyone," I say while blushing, my voice tone like a lovestruck little girl.
"Kyaa, Your Majesty is so cute when all lovesick, you have the full support of us maids, Your Majesty," the leading maid lets out an excited squeal and speaks while the others agree.
"T-Thank you... do you think she likes me too?" I say a little nervous, remembering the colors of her feelings, if I knew what they meant I wouldn’t be so nervous.
"Of course she likes Your Majesty too, how could she not love someone as cute, beautiful, and incredible as Your Majesty?"
"Then have confidence in your confession, Your Majesty."
"So what do you think I should give her as a gift? I-I’m thinking of giving her a bouquet made from my mana," it may seem simple, but since it’s made from my solidified mana, the bouquet itself, besides being beautiful, will be a deadly weapon. If she absorbs the bouquet, she will get a magic buff for a while, which is very useful.
"I think that’s a very romantic gift, many would love it, after all, solidifying or materializing mana is difficult, and giving your own mana to another is quite intimate, as if a part of you is with them, even if briefly."
I blush at the imagination, thinking of Zephyra with my mana on her seems wonderful, it’s as if a part of me was with her, even if for a moment.
"Y-Yes, I think she’ll like it, I’ll make the most beautiful bouquet of all." I’ve never been good with love, but I know girls like beautiful and romantic things, so if I make a bouquet of flowers with mana of various elements, besides being beautiful, it’s also romantic since it was given along with a confession.
The maids continue rushing around, choosing clothes, while I’m making the bouquet, as I’ve trained a lot, my mana control has improved, I’m making the rose shapes perfect.
And I start adding elements to the bouquet, the bouquet is now composed of various roses in red, yellow, blue, green, and black colors, forming a design where each line of a color forms a spiral from the center of the bouquet to the edges.
"It’s beautiful, Your Majesty," all the maids say in awe at seeing the bouquet, I also agree, it was difficult to make it and maintain its perfect form while adding various different elements.
Each rose has an element I’ve learned magic in, being flowers of element, ice, fire, blood, darkness, wind, and light.
"Y-Yes, I think she’ll really like this gift." I used 70% of my mana in this bouquet, so the bouquet has vibrant colors as if pulsing with life, if she absorbs all this mana, she’ll be quite strong for a while.
I think it’s the perfect gift that mixes romance with utility, I even used texture transitions to make it look more like real flowers, this mana bouquet is practically a masterpiece.
Besides carrying my characteristic scent because it’s made from my mana, fortunately my natural scent is good, although my natural scent is usually covered by the smell of blood, so it’s not usually so noticeable.
Now that I have the bouquet, I can sense my own scent, it’s a somewhat sweet scent, like an 80% sweet 20% bitter type of sweet that reminds me of chocolate and strawberry.
’I never thought I’d have a sweet scent...’ It’s not a bad thing to smell like sweets, so I think she’ll like the scent of the bouquet.
After some time testing dresses, they finally chose one, they’ll lightly makeup me to enhance my natural beauty and put on the dress and accessories.
"Wow... I’m beautiful."
