The Only Son Amongst The Daughters Of Eros

"I mean I personally do," Aeric got down fully from the winding stairs and looked at the two of them with a smart expression.

Headmistress Lysandra was still in shock, struggling between anger and disbelief as she held on to her clothes, covering her stark body while still sitting on the table the Priest had been fucking her on.

The Divine Priest himself was still on the ground, whimpering almost while covering his face with his hand.

"So," Aeric continued, shrugging pridefully, "which of you is going to answer my question?"

The silence remained after the question. Lysandra looked down at the Divine Priest, who gazed up at her like a puppy looking at its owner.

She then looked at Aeric's direction, and slowly, her face squirmed, signalling she was building courage to fight back. "Who says you're the one who gets to ask questions here, Son Aeric!?"

Aeric smiled. "Are you being serious? I just caught you taking ancient thrusts from the Divine Priest who should not even be giving them in the first place. I think I have earned myself some rights to ask questions."

Lysandra got down from the table and hurriedly put on her black shirt, though not without Aeric getting a good view of her heavyset breasts and her puffy stomach.

"Earned yourself some questions?" she walked closer towards him with an angered face. "What are you even doing here inside the inner sanctum?"

Aeric decided to bite, answering; "I came to see the Divine Priest in regards to the matter of my Declaration. But, headmistress, I don't think that matters at all."

The tall woman grimaced, now standing in front of him and looking down at him. "Is that what you think?"

"Yes," Aeric replied. "No one is going to ask what I was doing here when they find out what you two were doing first."

Lysandra's eyes widened, and so did the Divine Priest who scrambled to a sitting position, whimpering as he grabbed his head.

"And who's going to tell people?" Lysandra asked, after giving the scaredly priest a glance. "You? You plan on speaking out on what you saw today?"

Aeric burst into half-laugh. "Well of course I do. Do you know how damning and egregious this is? He's a Divine Priest, he's sworn to the Divinity and to my father never to have sex and there he was giving you his 'priestly pump meat'."

"And why would they ever believe you?" Lysandra asked, deepening her voice and furrowing her brows.

Aeric's lips parted. At first, he was going to say 'because it's true' but then he realized how naive and blind that sounded. His eyes lifted up slowly, mindfully and he looked at the Headmistress, scanning her face.

"You intend to deny it," he said, slitting his eyes at her coldly.

"Why not?" Headmistress Lysandra shrugged smartly. "You do not have any proof. You leave this place, we leave this place just the same. You have no other proof beside the allegation that you saw us here with your own eyes. And who would believe such an allegation like that?"

Aeric remained still, expressionless, listening to her and watching.

"You know the things many say about you. I do not particularly believe nor support them but why would that matter?" she shrugged with one shoulder. "It becomes an advantage for me and no one would believe you over the Headmistress of the Royal Institution and its own Divine Priest."

Her eyes glistened with mischief and pride. "You will lose."

Aeric was silent for a second, taking in her words, looking into her eyes. Then finally, after some silence and some thinking, he separated his lips to speak. "You are a very clever woman, Miss Lysandra," he said.

He moved backwards, glanced down at the Priest before looking at her once again. "And because of that, I will treat you in similar fashion. With cleverness."

The headmistress narrowed her eyes at him, not understanding what he was saying. But he was cornered wasn't he? He had no choice but to abandon the hopes of ever telling this to anyone. So what was he talking about?

"I can not be pushed to the wall, headmistress," Aeric looked at her. "Not anymore. "No one will outsmart me ever again, at the very least not you. You will be much useful to me."

"What are you talking about, you insane boy!" Lysandra stormed towards him. "You have no cards here. There is no other choice except you keep this secret."

Aeric appeared unbothered as he looked at her. "Good thing that when I run into a brick wall I can always go back."

Lysandra frowned in confusion, however Aeric had already activated the Deadwatch. The thin, golden mark appeared in his chest and began to pulse faintly, ticking unnaturally.

Aeric looked down at the Divine Priest who was still sitting on the floor cowardly. "And you, what the fuck?" he said disgustingly. "You have just lost all your aura, man. I can not even. Letting a woman use you as a cock toy? That's just sad."

"Return to Anchor Point, please."

Lysandra's heart skipped as she felt an energy begin to take control of her. "What are you doing?!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

— "doing you are what?!"

The room around Aeric quickly dissolved into fragments, the shadows, the voices, and even the ominous chamber itself disassembling into swirling particles of time and space.

Everything moved in reverse.

Lysandra's lips, her voluptuous Amazonian body, her approaching footsteps, everything retreated. The shattered crystal beneath his foot that had fallen when he stepped inside reassembled itself and leaped back into place.

The shadows slithered back to Lysandra, the Divine Priest got on his feet, they continued to hump and pump on the bed. Aeric watched as every moment unwound itself, every motion, sound, and interaction rolling back like a rewound play.

Even though it had happened before, the sensation was still very dizzying. The cold air warmed, the dim light brightened, and soon, it was time for him to be taken to the moment of the Anchor Point.

Like an extraction, he instantly disappeared from the inner sanctum and found himself standing outside the temple doors. He was behind the ground elevation as he remembered, and the chirping of birds filled the serene atmosphere of the temple grounds.

Aeric took a deep breath. "It was like that never happened and I can rebuild the reality with the lesson of my mistake."

He walked towards the temple again.
