RISE OF EROS

Although the princesses and the mother queen were the most likely choices, that did not mean they were the only ones. Even though it was small, the probability that the current queen was the client still existed, not to mention some ministers working from the royal palace.

Unfortunately, it was all speculation, as infiltrating the royal castle of Dunnas was not possible unless you were a demigod, and even then it would be difficult, so Shadow's agents could only inform Andrew that Victoria's client was possibly the royal family.

Although there were many possibilities, Andrew hoped that the royal family of Dunnas would be the client, as he needed strong allies, and no one better than the royal family for that.

Andrew had learned that he needed friends in high political circles, to avoid problems, such as those suffered in the Cannaris empire. With this possibility open, Andrew set about creating the fuck bike he was creating.

He handed over the affairs of Tampilla Palace to Sonia, who was not only training new courtesans but had gained many administrative skills, so she was not a bad manager.

Everyone was doing their jobs calmly and carefully, but everything felt too calm. The emperor even sent the deeds of the property that was given to Andrew in the city of Calci, along with the tax reprieve for 3 years.

3 days quickly passed and then the storm arrived. Although most of the employees of the Cannaris Palace began as slaves, almost all of them were already free, but still loyal to Andrew.

For this reason, the majority of them live in the establishment, but there are some exceptions. Víctor, Héctor, and the kitchen team have their own homes and some even have families.

What happened was that one morning after the Cannaris Palace closed its doors when Víctor was returning home he was assaulted by 3 men. These were experts, who revealed their intention, it was not a robbery, they were looking for information.

Although Victor was not in Andrew's closest circle, he was a valuable asset and knew things that others did not know and although Dayana did not know this, she still made him a target.

However, fortunately for her, Andrew had put her movements under surveillance and managed to notice that Victor had been attacked and Oliver, with imposing power, destroyed the three experts as if they were flies.

Having saved Victor, Oliver took him back to Cannaris Palace and met with Andrew in the office to tell him everything that had happened. Victor was clearly scared because although he knew that his boss had many enemies, he never expected them to attack him.

Andrew, seeing Victor's state, let out a sigh and asked, "Are you okay?", to which Victor could only respond with a slight nod, but the trembling of his body betrayed him.

"You have been a loyal employee who has given me a lot of help, so I won't lie to you. If you retreat now, it won't change the fact that you are a target, but I still have to ask you, will you leave or will you accompany me to the end?" Andrew asked with a serious expression.

Victor looked up at Andrew and seeing the sincerity in his eyes somehow gathered courage and said resolutely, "Mr. Andrew, you gave me everything I have, I will not abandon you."

Andrew smiled upon hearing his words and Victor continued saying, "But I can't lie that it scares me." This last comment made Andrew burst out laughing, which surprised Victor.

Andrew laughed for several seconds and when he managed to calm down he said, "I'd be surprised if you weren't scared. Even I get scared, but courage does not come from not being afraid, but from having the courage to face it."

Andrew's wise words made Victor regain his smile and he just nodded as if informing that he agreed with that words. "Still, I think it's best that you move your home here," Andrew said.

"Yes, that would be the best," Victor accepted, but after a few seconds he asked, "What about Mia and Rana?" Although these girls are not Victor's wives yet, they have become his lovers, so they live together, and he cares about them.

"Don't worry, I'll bring them too and you'll explain the situation to them," Andrew said and then Victor said goodbye. Now in the office, there were only Andrew and Oliver, so Andrew with a cold and serious tone asked, "Was it Dayana?"

Oliver just nodded and Andrew, seeing this, couldn't help but clench his teeth and fists with rage. He knew that that woman would attack them sooner or later, but he never expected that she would be so fast and that she would target Victor.

Andrew remained silent for a few seconds and then said, "You must bring Gaston, Canna, and Erick back because they are also in danger," but Oliver replied, "Don't worry, they have already been escorted back."

Hearing Oliver, Andrew breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Dayana wanted the video and audio players that he bought from the system, so he was sure that she would not attack Héctor and the other cooks since they were worthless.

While he was thinking about the next move, the office door opened and all of his wives, Gaston, Canna, Erick, and even Marie came in with worried expressions.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"We found out what happened," Candice said quickly and added, "Who was it and what do we do?" Before Andrew could answer, Oliver said, "Dayana and we haven't decided on any course of action yet."

"Why?" Carolina asked, to which Oliver responded, "That woman is not as simple as she seems. She is the ruler of one of the 5 most powerful pleasure houses in the central area of the red light district."

"And is that important? Andrew stood up to the emperor and now, are you afraid of that woman?" Carolina continued questioning with clear annoyance. Since Victor had been her companion since the beginning of this place she had a lot of esteem for him.

Finding out that Victor was attacked upset her and that's why she lashed out at Oliver, leaving him defenseless. Andrew noticing this intervened saying, "Caro, don't be like that with Oliver, you know it's not fear, but that the situation is not that easy to handle."

Andrew paused and continued saying, "That woman has a large number of experts under her command and we don't know her real strength, so attacking her blindly may cause us to stumble."

At Andrew's words, Carolina seemed to calm down a little, and looking at Oliver she apologized, "Sorry Oliver, I wasn't thinking clearly," to which Oliver replied with a smile, "Don't worry, Mrs. Carolina, I understand".

Interrupting them, Gaston said, "We still can't be passive," and Andrew agreed, so looking at Oliver he asked, "What plans do you have?" Andrew knew that while Oliver lacked information on the enemy, he must have some plans.

Oliver looked at Andrew and with a serious expression said, "There is a way to get information, but it is risky." His words made everyone wrinkle their eyebrows and Andrew, a little impatiently, asked, "Which one?"

Oliver didn't respond right away and this made Andrew more upset, but then Oliver looked at Aki and Andrew immediately understood why he was so reluctant to say it.

Noticing that Andrew understood what he meant, Oliver spoke, "Mrs. Aki's skill has improved a lot. To the point that even it is difficult for me to notice her, I believe that she can gather intelligence, but, if Dayana has any experts of my level or someone with special abilities under her command, it may be problematic."

Oliver's proposal made everyone in the office remain silent since the risks were great. Andrew's first impulse was to refuse, but at that moment Fluffy spoke to him, "Master, garden flowers are fragile."

Fluffy's analogy made Andrew understand that he could not always protect his wives and that he should let them make their decisions, but he was still reluctant. He was a loner who took refuge in porn and whores in his previous life and having beautiful wives that he loved and who loved him now, he didn't want to risk them.

However, Aki stepped forward and said, "Let me try." The little lady's determination was palpable and she looked like she wouldn't take "No" for an answer, so Andrew reluctantly and with great concern said, "Okay."

Everyone was surprised at Andrew's agreement to use this method, but no one said anything and they accepted his decision. Still, Andrew turned to look at Oliver and said, "Please make a plan and keep her safe."

His words were clear, he did not want to know about the plan, because if he did, he would be tempted to intervene and that would only destroy Aki's resolve. Oliver, understanding this, nodded and said, "Don't worry."

With that settled, Aki and Oliver left the office. The plan would be designed by the two of them and no one else so that it would be effective and avoid making mistakes due to sentimentality, and when they left, the office fell into silence.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the red light district, Dayana received the report of the mission's failure. Although on the surface she seemed calm, inside she was a sea of fire because she could not believe that her men failed so miserably.

She knew that Andrew wouldn't expose anyone in his circle because of this and that he would retaliate, so now she had gained nothing besides a rather problematic enemy.

She was thinking about asking for help from the experts that her family had sent to watch her, but she quickly abandoned that idea, as she believed that they would rather help Andrew eliminate her than help her.

She knew what position she was in and she shouldn't expect help from her family, so she began to think of another solution. What none of them knew was that this little altercation had alerted many forces in the city.
