"Mhmm!"
The doors to their room barely closed when Xuefeng's back slammed against them and his lips locked in gasping hold. Nuwa didn't waste any second, her fingers tangling with his own as she pinned him, taking full control from the start.
"Wait… I need to tell you something," Xuefeng reminded, pulling away for just a moment, but Nuwa bit him as punishment.
"You are not allowed to talk till I let you," Nuwa ordered, licking where she bit to ease his pain. "Don't worry, I will slowly reach to everything. Let me have my fun first. You will come clean with every detail once I'm done with you."
Xuefeng didn't have the slightest worry she would do any different. He already felt like a prey caught in the predator's mouth.
She imprisoned his tongue in his own castle, intoxicating them both without stop as if nothing could satisfy her inner desires. Nuwa gave him lots of time to incite his lust as she drowned him with her delicious smell, letting him inhale till his lungs were inflamed with just her.
It was her night. He was all hers.
Nuwa melted her lips into his cheek, jawline, and finally his ear, whispering with yearning and love he rarely heard from her.
"I missed you a lot… My body needs you… My mind wants you… Please don't leave me again…"
Xuefeng couldn't help but shudder, his body losing strength with the old guilt coming back.
"I'm sorry… If only I was strong—"
"No," Nuwa cut him off, nibbling on his neck. "Don't be sorry. I don't want that. I want you. I want Xuefeng that will fulfill his promise. You said you will never leave me and always care for me. What happened to that promise?"
"I failed it…" Xuefeng stated the obvious.
Even if he couldn't do anything about the Heavens targeting them, the bad feeling of not being enough to protect his wives, was still present. Nuwa's shiver made him weak.
"You failed it… I see… Are you going to do anything about it?" Nuwa asked when a sudden drop of liquid dripped onto his neck.
"Nuwa… Are you crying…?" Xuefeng asked in disbelief, but Nuwa ignored him, tightening her fingers around his own.
"Answer my question. Are you going to do anything about it?" Nuwa repeated.
Sniff.
Her tears now dripped more frequently, breaking his heart with each tap.
"I will. I won't let it happen again," Xuefeng expressed with the will to protect her stronger than ever. "Even at the cost of my life, I will not let this happen again."
"You said it once already. What if you fail again?" Nuwa questioned, pulling away and facing him directly.
Xuefeng knew he will never forget the look on her face. The dominance was gone completely, replaced with pure feelings of a woman that got hurt but hopes to see the light.
Even if she was strong-willed, she still had a bit of softness inside her that only true love could awaken. Her reddened eyes and cheeks were something she never showed before and probably never will again.
"Look into my eyes and promise me… Promise you will never leave me. Promise you will care for me and we will go through our lives together," Nuwa demanded, not even wiping her tears away, letting him watch her most vulnerable moment in full view.
"I promise. We will forever be together," Xuefeng vowed, leaning forward to kiss her like he never did.
Their lips gently touched, like a feather that fell on the ground. She held still, slowly smelting them both into one piece.
"Please don't cry…" he mouthed, wiping her cheek with his nose. "I hate to see you cry…"
"Don't worry… You will never see me cry again," Nuwa assured, sniffing for the last time. "I had been holding my tears back for long, so they just spilled."
"It's okay… I'm here for you… Now and in the future, it will always stay the same…" Xuefeng whispered back, pushing on her hands to make her release him. "I want to hold you."
"Mhmm," Nuwa nodded, finally letting his hands go.
He immediately reached out to hold her face and wiped her cheeks with care. She did the same, rubbing him with a loving gaze.
"I love you and I just don't want to lose you," Nuwa confessed, her worry still visible on her face.
"Why would you lose me? I'm not going anywhere," Xuefeng replied confused only to be hit with the recent headache.
"One year. You have one year to reach the peak of the Celestial Stage and even then, you can't be sure if we can defeat that old master. I'm worried..."
"So that's why you are like this…" Xuefeng finally realized and kissed her softly. "Don't worry, I will work hard to become strong. I promise. No more slacking."
"Really? Will you do it for me?" Nuwa muttered with hope in her eyes. "Promise me you will train every day."
��Of course I will. I will put everything into training," Xuefeng confirmed. "I promise you."
He already planned to give his all and Nuwa's tears only affirmed his decision.
"Can I help you with that?" Nuwa asked, smiling cheerfully.
"Mhmm, it would be my pleasure if you did," Xuefeng agreed again, but Nuwa's questions didn't end.
"Every day?"
Xuefeng raised his eyebrow, getting suspicious at her eagerness.
"Well, you are not going to leave my side anyway, so yes, every day," Xuefeng granted her wish, causing Nuwa to brighten.
"Perfect! Now that we have this behind us, we can move on to the main act," Nuwa said with a grin as she pulled away. "Let's start with the first day of your training. Do you want to strip yourself or do you need help?"
Xuefeng blinked a few times.
"Why do I feel like I was tricked?"
Nuwa only shrugged, stepping forward to help him undress.
"No, I was genuinely concerned. Do you really think I would cry on-demand to trick you?" Nuwa pointed out, throwing the chest armor on the floor. "Since I already got my promise, there is no point in worrying anymore. I might as well get the best deal for myself. I also need to Cultivate after all. Not sure about others but I plan to reach the peak of Celestial Stage within the same time as you."
Her fingers moved quickly, stripping him quickly till only his shirt was left on.
"I also can't slack so I'm looking forward to our daily workout," Nuwa expressed with a wink.
Rip!
All the buttons got blasted away as Nuwa forcefully split his shirt open.
"You are really something else Nuwa," Xuefeng blurted as he pulled her close, seizing her body greedily. "Do you think I would leave you unsatisfied? I will make sure all my wives get their share of my love."
"Oh, even if you don't plan to, I will make sure to take what I deserve. Your word is just a backup," Nuwa clarified, reaching down to touch his bare abs and arms. "Gosh, I really missed this sexy body. You made this Queen addicted. Take responsibility now."
Xuefeng didn't need to be asked twice, his palms already squeezing the two cheeks he missed just as much.
"Do you want to strip yourself or do you need help?" Xuefeng quoted her, causing her to snicker and pull away.
She glanced at him flirtatiously as she untied the strings at the back and slid her dress to the floor. Her soft breasts were bare with only her sexy white panties still remaining. Xuefeng already imagined them falling down pretty soon as well.
"They also missed you…" Nuwa muttered softly as she squeezed her arms together. "How about you kiss them as a greeting?"
Xuefeng was already on the move, grabbing Nuwa's waist and sinking his lips into her ample chest.
"Ah…" Nuwa moaned in relief as he sucked and embraced his head, choking him against her chest.
Xuefeng didn't mind at all, having more than enough breath to suck till he was satisfied.
"Now, tell this Queen what you wanted to share before. What did you do with this lady Dragon?" Nuwa questioned happily, but he froze.
"Au, au!"
Nuwa noticed the change immediately and pulled him up by the ear like a mother who just caught her kid on a lie. Her smile didn't disappear, but that didn't mean it was better for Xuefeng.
It was the opposite.
"Hehe, I can sense something interesting happened. Share, share," Nuwa hurried with a giggle. "It's not like you did anything naughty with her inside that barrier, right?"
Xuefeng visually panicked.
"Nuwa, listen. I didn't mean to do anythin—"
Thud!
Xuefeng's body smashed into the wall as Nuwa's Soul Power wrapped around his body.
"You didn't mean to do what…?"
