The ice cream and cheesecake were in perfect condition when they arrived at the tables all around us. When dessert arrived at our table, I was able to confirm that it was indeed some kind of Ice Magic that kept the desserts cold, however, it seems that the Magic wasn't cast by a Demon, but it was from a Magical Device. It was almost like each plate was a miniature freezer that kept the desserts nice and cold." Ah, this is the best after all..."" You're so right, Ellie... Ah, I can taste the strawberries..."
Ellie and Wendy were sinking into their chairs as they enjoyed their ice cream and cheesecake." My Love, it seems to be a success. Fufufu!"" Ah, Darling, look, those kids over there can't stop themselves from eating!" Sarah and Anna were also looking around at the reactions of the Demons at different tables. Just eyeballing it, I think I worried a bit too much about the palates of other Demons for tonight.
Whether drunk, sober, adult, child, man or woman, everyone was smiling and enjoying their first time eating ice cream and cheesecake. press... press... kiss... kiss... I felt a hand on each of my hands and then a soft kiss on each of my cheeks. Sarah and Anna were just as happy as I was." All that hard work is paying off, My Love."" Darling, tomorrow is going to be quite busy by the looks of it. We may need to stay and extra day considering all of the Baron and Knight Families that are here.""
I couldn't have gotten this far without the support of you both. It feels nice when things work out, doesn't it? Why don't we enjoy our dessert for tonight? We can worry about tomorrow in the morning." Sarah and Anna were in the mood for celebrating. I smiled at them and decided to just relax and enjoy the rest of our time eating our dessert. With my words having been said, Sarah and Anna were in agreement with me.
Granted, I think they also wanted a kiss on the cheek as well, but I'd rather do something like that when we're alone. Not in the current situation where strangers and their children were periodically looking back at us to see what we were doing. Also we are in front of Princess Alice... We just fixed that problem and while she said it was water under the bridge, there's no reason to try and bring up old concerns...
Speaking of old concerns, while most of the looks that had outright hostile intent had disappeared with the drinks and food, a good amount of them were still glancing over, whether it was simply to look at the only 2 Humans that were here or to gaze at a Marquess or the 2 Princesses at the table, is something I couldn't answer. Even now, while most of the guests were digging into their desserts, curious kids and sober wives were glancing at our table between each bite." Mhmmm..."
A cute sound came from across the table, I looked at it as I bit into my first spoonful of ice cream to see Princess Alice enjoying her serving of vanilla ice cream. Her ears were wiggling as the taste of ice cream spread all around her mouth. Even though she had a cat's tongue, it seems that her ears are fully dog-like. I'm reminded of a stray dog that Laura and I fed one day when we were coming back from school. I had a cup of pudding with me as an after-school snack.
Looking at the dog, I couldn't help but give him the rest of the pudding. His ears wiggled when I fed and pet him. Unfortunately, the next day, the dog had left. I hope he's still alive somewhere..." What's the matter?" Ah, seems I've been caught staring. I was lost in thought thinking about the dog and now Princess Alice noticed me." I was just thinking that you looked like you were really enjoying the dessert. I'm glad you were, Princess Alice."" Oh, well, yes, the ice cream really agrees with my palate."
Love what you're reading? Discover and support the author on the platform they originally published on. It seems that Princess Alice bought my excuse. I'm glad that I avoided bringing up the ears thing. chill... That was, until I felt someone's ice cold breath from eating ice cream, right on my ear as she began to speak." While I can understand their appeal, Darling. Might I remind you how you said Sarah and I had your full attention earlier?" pinch." Ow."
Anna's words came from one side and a pinching pain came from the other. Sarah was looking at me and pinching my side." It seems we do need to punish you after all, My Love."" Bu-"" No "buts". You've been caught red handed. Prepare yourself for when we make it back to our room." From the look in Sarah and Anna's eyes, it seems that pleading my case was worthless.
I waved a white flag of surrender and then my own plate of cheesecake and ice cream where plundered by my somewhat playfully angry Wives, but the intent of their spoons seemed to show that they may have just been hungry. I wondered how that would even be possible with all of the food that they've eaten? But I'm not a Demon, so for all I know, it was barely enough food for them." Here."" Hm?"" Come on, My Love. This is the first part of your punishment."
Sarah served me a spoonful of cheesecake and offered it with a smile and an explanation. Rather than a punishment, this felt more like a reward. I happily munched down on the spoon and enjoyed the fruits of my labor." Does it taste good?" Sarah asked me a question, I could only wonder how she could think something she hand-fed me could possibly taste bad? if anything, it tasted better than just plain eating it." I think this is the best cheesecake I've ever had in my life.""
Oh, Jim really perfected the recipe, did he?"" Not at all, it's the best because my Wife is feeding me it."" You..." Sarah blushed, but quickly returned to her plate for another piece of my cheesecake that she stole. tap... tap... A tapping of my other shoulder gave me an idea of what the first part of my punishment is really like." Care for some ice cream, Darling?" Anna offered me a spoonful of my stolen ice cream. I happily bit down." Yes, good, good! Is it tasty, Darling?" I nodded my head."
Is it good because it's ice cream or because I'm feeding you?"" Of course it's because you're feeding me, Anna. I'm surprised it's taken so long for me to realize the best thing I could ever eat is whatever my Wives feed me." I swallowed the ice cream in my mouth and began to turn my head. While turning, I noticed that Princess Alice was staring at us. Sarah and Anna, who were paying attention to everything I was doing at the moment, obviously followed my line of sight to see a Princess staring back at us."
Is everything alright, Alle?"" Uhm... No, it's nothing." Sarah decided to break the moment of silence with a simple question, to which Princess Alice seemed to not have much of an answer for. Princess Alice returned to finishing her dessert as Sarah and Anna continued to take turns feeding me and also eating their own desserts. As each took a turn to feed me, the other would take a bite of their own dessert. This was the song and dance of my dessert eating. Before long, it was over.
I almost felt it was too short of a time and it seems I wasn't the only one as Sarah and Anna looked down at their plates and a sense of longing seemed to fill their eyes." I wish there was more ice cream..."" The cheesecake..." Anna and Sarah voiced their thoughts with a bit of a sad voice." I know, it's sad for now, but our night isn't over yet, right?" My words seemed to spark back some life into Sarah and Anna's eyes." Yes, that's right, this is just first part of your punishment, isn't it, Anna?"" Yes, Sarah.
The next punishment will be even more intense." A light of determination was born from the spark that I lit. Now they have a complete drive for later tonight. I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. I just hope they don't plan on doing anything too extreme, since we're in another person's home for the night. With dessert finally finished, I guess the party is finally getting ready to end?
The polite thing to do in Diablos is to wait for the person who the party or event is centered around to announce that the party was over. Of course there'd be a speech again, then the Closest Friends of the person in question would go and say their goodbyes and then the guests would be free to leave at their leisure. This didn't really matter for me, since I already allowed Lady Cindy to come to our table and speak to Princess Alice for a bit.
Speaking of which, I haven't asked if Princess Alice was okay with speaking to Lady Cindy... I'd hate for them to actually dislike each other... This could be a problem... But Sarah seemed to think that it wouldn't be a big deal... This is going to make my brain hurt until they start speaking to each other..." Before my Father says a few words, I'd like you all to hear a few words from the person who granted us such a lovely dessert menu. Please, Marquess Drake, could you come up and say a few words!?"
"!" I felt my heartbeat spike as I understood the words that came from Byron's mouth. It went even further up as a bunch of drunk, sober, curious and downright angry Demons all began to look at me like I'm the bell of the ball. Well, I did say that I'd like everyone to know that My Company was the maker of the ice cream and cheesecake, but I thought that Byron would just announce it. A misunderstanding for sure. And now I have to deal with the consequences.
