Chương 251: Chapter 234. Countesses And Their Daughters' Curiosity

Sarah Ericsson's Point Of View My Love drifted away from us women so we could talk without restraint. Of course, I'd prefer if he would stay, but he seems to grow shyer when we discuss certain topics. However, this time was due to the older women here. Anna and I have noticed that John tends to bend to the whims of women who're in their 40s or older. We figure this must come from feelings regarding his Mother and that pest's.... Laura's mother. It seems that even the Countesses fall into that category for him.

Right now, Anna and I were recounting our experience falling for him. My story was quite quick. Since it'd be hard to explain the workings of Holy Heal and explaining how I witnessed his dreams and emotions, which in turn affected me and caused my Love for him to grow from there. I simply reiterated some of the story that could be understood." Well, after he had healed me, I awoke to find him watching over me with a gentle look in his eyes. From there, we were attacked by a traitor.

Even though we didn't know each other, and he had no idea how to protect himself, he jumped in front of me to protect me. As a Princess of Diablos, I couldn't simply allow my Savior to die, so I protected him and fought the attacker off. We had our first conversation after that. Even though he could've died, his first words were full of thanks that I protected him. Then he smiled at me. From that moment, I began to plan Our Wedding. From what he had done and what I knew he was going to do.

I knew I could force Our Marriage into the rewards he would receive. After all, a Woman of Diablos must capture her man anyway she can! It's the only way we can Love! After that, in only around 4 months after that, we were Married, along with Anna of course." I looked towards Anna so that she could begin to give her own story of how she fell for John. I looked for him in the crowd and found him speaking to the Counts that introduced themselves to us earlier.

Even though Count Sark seems to be an ally to us now, Count Gorse needs some work. His rude behavior towards John is something I won't be willing to forgive anytime soon. And that fool Tye. Had John not stepped in, his teeth would be on the floor by now. Maybe more than that? But John doesn't want to cause a scene tonight. This party is an important step for his business. Anna and I both understand that, but the circumstances and environment seem to wish for us to snap.

As I can't particularly do anything for him as we're separated for now, I suppose we can only make friendly conversation with the Countesses for now. I decided to pay attention to Anna's story for now, since it would do well to join in on the conversation instead of fully watching over John. Since I can see our Guardsmen doing just that, I can relax for now." Well, I knew I felt something different for my Darling soon after meeting him.

The change from just a feeling to more romantic feelings came from a conversation we had. While I don't feel comfortable sharing the conversation here, what I will say is that he made me feel heard for the first time in my life. It didn't take long before I realized I was In Love. I felt so guilty about my feelings for the longest time." You felt guilty, Lady Anna? Why?" Tana spoke to Anna as she seemed confused by her words.

I guess the idea of us being John's Wives has already been firmly established in her mind, the idea that Anna, at first, was to only be his Maid is something that she doesn't even seem to think is possible." Well, Tana. At first, I was only supposed to be My Husband's Exclusive Maid. Queen Aqua asked that of me."" But then you fell in love with each other?"" Not quite, Tana. You see..." Anna looked at me for a moment. It seems that our history is passing through her mind.

I smiled at Anna to show that I was okay with her sharing the story of how I gave permission. It seems that I didn't need to say it telepathically. That was one of the best things to come from the almost 2 years of being Sister Wives. Anna and I have become important people in each other's lives. It only makes sense seeing as we're both Wives to John, we live with each other, we plan with each other and most importantly, we actually enjoy spending time with each other.

Anna has gone from someone I thought would only be involved with me when it came to John, to being one of the Greatest Friends of my life. This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there." When I had figured out that I did indeed Love, Matthew. I felt guilty because I was only a lowly Maid. Sarah and Matthew were already Betrothed to each other, so I had no real place in the picture besides serving my Master as his Maid.

Then, Sarah had sat me down, she had noticed my feelings and instead of being angry with me, she sympathized with me. She told me that it was okay to love him. With that, I was able to act on my feelings. Little did I know on the other end, that without even trying to, Matthew actually seemed to be falling for me as well. However, just like me, Matthew felt guilty. You see, he felt he was betraying Sarah. After some time and a talk with Sarah, he was able to make his mind up.

From there, he confessed to me and I accepted it."" Then you got married?" Tana continued to be full of questions for Anna's story. At this point, even the Countesses and Gasha were extremely interested in where this story was going." Actually, this is where it gets a little ridiculous. Even though our feelings were mutual. Matthew didn't want to do anything that would dishonor Sarah and me. He wanted to do things "the correct way". But before we could do that, we had to deal with Promethia's Hero.

Matthew felt it was only right to handle that issue first before he settled anything else. After we did, the next stop was to ask my Parents for my Hand In Marriage. He actually ended up dueling my Father then as well."" He fought your father!? Did he win?" Anna's story began to cause the women's group to reach a fever pitch in their emotions. While Gasha was the one to ask the question, I could see in the Countesses eyes that they wanted an answer as well.

I could only giggle a little as they all seemed to be completely invested in this story." While he did fight my Father. The duel was never about proving himself to my Father. It was about making me happy. Because my relationship with my Father had been strained for a long time. Even our conversation when I returned home, and Matthew asking for my Hand In Marriage was tense since the beginning. He could tell this caused me great pain.

So, Sarah and I's Paladin, after saving Our Country, decided that the next thing for him to do was save my relationship with my Family. While my Father seemed to take the duel seriously, Matthew's first priority was me. He did all he could to make my Father understand my feelings as his daughter. It worked to a degree. While I was holding Matthew in my arms after a hard-fought duel, my Father actually apologized to me. Once my Father had left, I looked down at Darling who had stayed in my arms.

From that moment, Our Marriage went from a somewhat unclear goal to something I knew I needed to accomplish as soon as possible."" So, then you married him as well?"" Yes, the timing was right. While some Nobles and Demons might think one thing or another about us. Our Husband makes us the happiest we could possibly be." Anna showed a very warm smile as she spoke in response to Lady Kina's question. They then looked at me for my own perspective of my Marriage." Everything Anna said is the same for me.

Even though we faced some hardship due to Our Husband's Race, I know deep down, he wouldn't trade us for the world. We share that same opinion."" Oh, you sound so confident about that? What if another woman shows up that wished to marry, Marquess Drake? Would you accept them?" Lady Diana asked a question that was almost ironic. Considering the fact that since Our Marriage, My Husband had caused not just 3 women to fall for him, but Alle seemed to be falling for him as well.

While it was only a slight feeling from her for now and she seemed to be mired in guilt over her attitude she had from meeting him, it seems likely that John's natural charm might entangle her. Let alone the fact that Charlotte and Alle are both Foreign Princesses... Or the fact that my 2 best friends are also in love with him... Or even Cyn, my own sister. And that happened before we Married him... Regardless of that, the answer has always been the same since the beginning.

I smile and look at the girls waiting for my response." There are only 2 requirements to that."" And what might that be, Lady Anna?" Lady Kina was curious about the requirements I mentioned. I could see why, since they were a bit strange." Simple, the first is that Anna and I need to approve of her. The most important however, is the one that truly matters... She needs to genuinely Love Our Husband with all her heart. Anna and I have always shared that quirk.

I think it's only normal to expect no less from any other Sister Wife." My words seemed to shock Lady Kina and Lady Diana, but for some reason, Gasha and Tana were both ruminating on my words. I'm not completely sure what those reactions meant, but all Anna and I can really do at this point, was to be honest. Since after all, a certain pair of fuzzy red wolf ears were twitching as I spoke about my requirements. She's always acted so cute whenever she really wanted to know something.

Maybe I should see if Anna would like to tease her a little as well? Just for fun, certainly not to pay her back for all of the lovey dovey times she's interrupted us from having with Our Husband... Certainly not!
