The night's experience was over and it was a new day, the sun had just finished its warm-up phase and was now turning up its intensity, looking to fry some unfortunate beings.
Easily brushing off the sun's wicked intentions were three individuals, Seth, Minuha, and Irene.
A fully clothed Seth and Irene stood side by side while Minuha stood opposite them with a narrowed expression, trying to figure out Seth.
"Are you sure about this Seth, You're just going to let her go," Irene asked, looking at him with also narrowed eyes, her eyes occasionally moving to Minuha suspiciously.
ƥandasnovel.com "Yes."
"You trust me that much?" Minuha asked with septicity, Irene nodding her head in agreement with Minuha's doubts.
"Why not, you weren't lying were you," Seth asked with a bright kind smile, one that Minuha soon found herself almost spotting.
"No, I wasn't"
Though Minuha calmly replied to the question, within her, she was raging as she wondered what was wrong with Seth.
After shutting and sidelining her, Seth had gone on to thoroughly fuck Irene some more the previous night before they had finally gone to sleep, and then this morning after everyone had cleaned up, Seth had dropped the bomb that he was letting Minuha go.
Though he did make her promise to not harm Flora or try going against him, the fact that that was all it took for him to let her go was unbelievable.
Though Minuha surprisingly truly did find herself making a sincere promise given her near-bleak options, Seth didn't know that.
She had expected him to talk about signing a contract, but he had said nothing about that, instead going on to readily accept her words at face value.
"But how can you be so sure I won't go back on my words."
Though Minuha truly didn't wish to look a horse gift in the mouth, she didn't want to fall for any of Seth's schemes.
"Because I want to give you another chance, initially I wanted to destroy, but last night I had a change of heart.
Family, friendship, bonds, I've come to realize that those are precious things, and with you now being one of my own, I have come to think of you as family, a feeling I hope you will someday also reciprocate.
"In a family there is trust, and since we are family, I have decided to trust you, can I do that?"
"Yes," Minuha asked and then quickly turned around"
"Goodbye, "She said and then quickly shot into the air.
For a few seconds, Seth watched Minuha's figure soar into the sky till he could see her no more and then he turned to Irene only to find her staring at the sky and then she spoke.
"What did you do to that woman?"
"What do you mean," Seth said a kind smile on his face as he moved towards Irene yet she quickly turned and gave him a snort.
"Family, bonds, friendship, "Minuha said sarcastically.
"What, I believe in friendship," Seth said looking offended," We're friends aren't we."
"Friends or sexual partners. You just see me as someone akin to a mistress, one which you find very interesting and wish to keep as your property, you…" Irene wanted to say but suddenly kept silent, a look of regret appearing on her face as she looked to Seth only to find his blank gaze on her.
Irene moved her mouth to speak but didn't know what to say, and in the head bent her head while her eyes got moist.
"Not even she can casually brush off the pain of heartbreak, I wonder what I would do if I get rejected," Seth thought.
The first drop of tear was about to form in a depressed Irene's eyes when Seth quickly moved close to her and his hands soon began grabbing her breasts.
Minuha looked up at Seth, a questioning stare on her face.
"Is this how you console Rose when she feels down?"
Iren's question confused Seth for a few seconds, but he then quickly remembered his mixed-up lies of the previous day and answered.
"No,"
A complicated expression claimed Irene's face and then she turned and began walking away.
"Let's go."
"Ahhh, did I fail to read something" Seth wondered.
.....
Close to an hour later, Seth was speeding through the air, Minuha carried princess style in his arms, the tension between them having eased up.
"Are you sure we're heading towards Aimy?" Seth asked with doubt on his face.
"Give me a second," Irene said and then took out a pearl-like object, one similar to the life tracker Aimy had once shown Seth. She held it in her hand and then closed her eyes for a few seconds.
"Yeah we're on track," Irene said looking back at Seth.
"Interesting" Seth muttered.
"Is there a problem?" Irene asked wanting to look around, but with how fast they were moving, everything was a blur to her and she could only use her soulsense.
"Don't stress yourself, I just found us a free ride" Seth said and then changed direction.
….
Even after finally departing from Seth, Minuha still found herself thinking about the man, remembering his last words of friends, family, and bonds, her mind and body agreeing with his every word and even evoking a sort of determination to live up to his expectation of her.
"What the hell is wrong with me have I fallen in love with him" Minuha wondered and then after some self-reflecting she let out a breath.
"Good, I haven't, though I guess my respect for him has increased. Perhaps he truly has very good reasons for sleeping with other women and being chaotic.
He and Irene seem to be having an argument, I'm sure I can use the opportunity to fit Ella between them, just a bit of planning and my baby girl will get the best boy."
Minuha was entranced with her thoughts for a better future when a roar suddenly sounded out, her mount trembling, and then suddenly becoming calm, and then to her shock she had two familiar guests.
What are you doing with Edwin's pet, did you bully it from him" an annoying and at the same time pleasing voice sounded in Irene's ears.
