Chapter 238: The Consequence Of Teasing
After waking up at eight A.M, Kathrine told me to get dressed into my regal toga right away as we did not have much time until event officially began. Kathrine had already been getting ready for a couple of hours, so I fortunately did not have to wait longer than thirty minutes after getting dressed for her to be ready.
Twentynine minutes later, I was at a little platter bar that hank placed out full of fruits and berries. After finding out Hank grew them all himself earlier, I was very impressed and began eating with vigour. Read exclusive adventures at m_v-l'-NovelFire
Hank seemed pleased to see someone enjoying the efforts of his labour and watched on from the side as I ate. Fortunately before the waiting ran over into the thirties, I heard two sets of heels making there way towards the lounge.
As they rounded the corner, I heard Kathrine say. "Mummy, that skirt is too short, people will definitely be looking if you bend down." Valerica rolled her eyes as she responded. "Oh will you stop you big prude, I am wearing shorts underneath, you don't see me complaining about the length of your skirt."
"There is quite a few inches from the middle thigh to the lower thigh, and my skirt is tighter and wont ride up. Plus I have this thing to cover anything if I accidentally fall down." Kathrine said, flapping a piece of cloth in the front of her outfit.
Upon noticing me looking over, Kathrine smiled as she took a sensual pose. "What do you think Apollo? Do I look good?" As I took in Kathrine's attire, I had to admit that I like what I saw.
Kathrine was wearing a toga that was borderline a dress. The toga was white like my own with two thin shoulder straps. The toga had quite a low cut, allowing for Kathrine to show off her goods so to speak. On the base of each shoulder strap, Kathrine had a fibula in the shape of a red flower that connected her white cape onto her back.
Around Kathrine's waist, the toga cut in and began to look tight. Above the toga's material, Kathrine was wearing a golden fauld, embroidered with a myriad of patterns and some red decorative cloth. Underneath the fauld and extending further than the rest of her toga, was a scapula that I assumed was for modesty reasons. She was also wearing a leg holster with a pistol inside and red open toed high heels that she paired with red nail polish.
"I smiled and nodded my head in Kathrine's direction. "Mmhh, I sure do have quite the hot date." Kathrine smiled, pleased that Apollo liked her outfit, but was upset that he did not seem to notice how she curled her hair slightly.
She was about to let it go and thank Apollo when her Mother followed up with. "And what about me Apollo? Be honest, Is my ass to fat for this skirt, or shall I go find another one?" Valerica then turned around and posed for a moment.
Valerica liked things a certain way and did not like changing the way she dressed to much. As a result, she got creative in her clothing and essentially had made A toga sports bra with pencil straps over her shoulder.
On her right shoulder, she had equipped an engraved pauldron and used a brass button broach to wear her half cape. She also was wearing a looser fitting skirt then Kathrine, but the skirt only went down to her middle thigh, though as she suddenly bent over in front of me, she showed that she was actually wearing shorts underneath so I suppose it was fine.
Finally to finish of her ensemble, Valerica wore a golden belt with a ruby at the centre and took a page from Kathrine's book as she wore red open toed shoes, though she wore flats as she was already quite tall.
Being totally honest, I replied to Valerica. "I don't know if you consider a 'fat' ass to be bad or not, but in my opinion, your ass looks plump and juicy, like a ripe tomato ready to be eaten. And as long as you are wearing those shorts underneath, the shortness of the skirt is fine."
Valerica turned around and looked at me wide eyed a moment before she burst out laughing. "Oh you little sweet talker, you want to eat your new mamma's ass? Get me drunk enough at the party and I might let you, Hahahaha!" She joked, which infected me as I began laughing as well, glad she was amused.
Kathrine, however, squinted at her mother for a moment to make sure she was indeed joking before her eyes glanced at the time on the wall. "What! How long were we getting dressed for? Mummy, we have to leave now If we are going to make it to the photoshoots!"
Valerica then stopped laughing after hearing that and looked at the clock. "Right then, Hank we are off. Don't spend all day in the garden, the sun is bad for your skin. It is your day off, rest."
Hank then waved his hands in front of his face. "Valerica I was changing your diapers and worrying about you long before you started worrying about me, If I want to go in MY garden, I will."
Valerica smiled at the poor attempt to embarrass her. "It Is my garden Hank, don't you go forgetting that." Hank rolled his eyes jokingly before saying. "You keep telling yourself that dearest, whatever makes you happy" He then walked off, not giving Valerica another thought as some of his plants needed pruning.
After their little banter, we wasted no time and the three of us made our way inside private ship. It took the ship ten minutes to arrive in the same spot as yesterday outside the palace instead of five as the airspace was being monitored a lot more heavily and more checks were being made in preparation for the party.
After leaving the ship, I took in the sight of the far stretching river and the city behind the palace and could not help appreciating it once more. As my eyes wandered, I looked down towards the courtyard down and across the bridge to the palace and it was packed with people and flashing lights.
I felt a knot in my stomach at all the people congregating in one spot, it left me a little queasy. It was then I heard a laughter in my mind followed by Onyx jesting. "My universe, you are literally surrounded by hundreds of thousands of beings at any one time on home world and measly few thousand prey has you flustered?"
As I continued to look out over the scenery I thought back. "Well when I am surrounded by the hive, I am surrounded by love, I was even fine around all the mercenaries, but all these butt munches in one spot? It is going to be a long day."
From what I have gathered about Spartari nobles, It was safe to say I got lucky and met the laid back Hyllus' first. All the rest tend to undermine and sabotage one another in the stupidity that was politics.
…
Onyx felt happy with Apollo's declaration of love and left him to do his own thing as she snuggled up next to Sapphire. She had contemplated leaving Apollo's mind embrace to kill off the planets leaders while they were vulnerable, but she knew that unlike the hive, it would not have as deep of an impact. She also got an uneasy instinct when she thought of doing so, so she decided she was better off watching Apollo have his fun. As to her, there no was no better entertainment.
"It is a shame we don't have that swords company huh Sapphire? Though I doubt she is more than happy on Apollo's waist right now." Onyx said with a smile. Sapphire gave her roommate a side eye, she had a feeling the Onyx was in one of her playful moods.
Extending her tongue out as she yawned and stretched, Sapphires muscles bulged as she stood up and started walking away to be alone under the Origin. She then gave Onyx a look that suggested. 'Try and find out.' Before squeezing her eyes closed in a smile at the comfort.
Onyx watched the whole thing, still sat down where she was. She switched into her stalker form to prevent herself from acting recklessly before mumbling to herself. "When Orchid finally joins me in here, we will make sure you get no rest as a punishment for always being rude!"
Sapphire opened her smiling eyes at that comment, clearly unhappy. Considering that she was technically a part of Apollo's soul, she had certain benefits inside the Mindspace, she is usually too sleepy to use them, but that threat crossed the line.
With a thought she stood up and the chains on Onyx's limbs grew taught and began dragging the stalker towards the blue kitten. Realising what was happening, Onyx begged, switching to her humanoid form. "No Sapphire, I was just kidding, please don't! I want to observe Apollo! Nooo!"
Her 'no' was then muffled out as Sapphire dropped roughly onto Onyx with all of her chonk, before going back to sleep in the tranquil silence of the Mindspace.
