Harem Overlord: I ALWAYS Finish Quick!

"Multiple!?" Ryan gasped.

"Look at your face!" She laughed again as he froze mid-blush. Then she felt herself grow dizzy once more when the back of his hand started moving downwards along the middle of her waist, ending at the top of the curve of her ass where she sat on his thighs.

"It's a girl and that. . . was just a. . . joke," She said in between pants. "You don't have to worry about it… I'm a bunny girl, not a bunny."

"I'm so relieved." He breathed out with relief while chuckling into her ear. "But tell me, how do you know it's going to be a girl?"

She paused before replying, trying hard not to break into another fit of giggles for fear of sounding even more like a fool for what she was about to say next—something only a child would ever think.

"Because I already saw her in my dream last night..." she admitted sheepishly after pulling away from his arms to look him dead in the eyes.

Her face became more serious as she leaned closer to kiss him again but hesitated before they connected. "But I have to ask… Do you want children too?" Zoey asked while tilting her head slightly.

'I took a big risk doing this... if he doesn't want it now,' she thought while looking into those bright green eyes highlighting his attractive masculine face. She didn't know why she forced herself to get pregnant or wanted to push things with this man who had come into her life for some unknown reason. He had seemed so perfect at first sight.

'Breeding my harem members?' Ryan imagined a paradise filled with thousands of his offspring. He, the ruler over an entire galaxy, and his children, the monarchs of planets.

"Yes," came out in a low tone between her soft lips.

Ryan's arms wrapped around her waist in a gentle embrace that made her shiver from excitement. His hand rested lightly on her hip as their faces remained close together. Zoey's breath tickled the skin near the neckline of his shirt as he spoke. "I do want it."

Zoey couldn't help smiling wider than before when she felt him nod. Her eyes closed, and she kissed his nose and mouth once more before pulling herself away with enough force to cause him to fall backward slightly.

Her body was hot again despite being wet a few moments ago.

Ryan said, "From today onward, you shall be known as Zoey Emerald. The first of my harem to become a mother of my child."

"Thank you." Getting down on one knee, Zoey lowered her head and said in a solemn tone filled with pride, "I promise to raise my bunnies with care and love so they will become strong and powerful leaders for you."

She took a deep breath and stood straight again, staring into his bright green eyes and deciding that she needed more of him.

Emily, Lizzy, and Izzy POV…

Walking out of Ryan's dorm room, the girls set off to find Grace.

After two hours of searching around campus and having seen no sign of her, the girls decided to go directly to the source of the mysteries. Wakana Village.

After Emily bought a map at the campus store, the three were about to set off for their trip but couldn't locate the village on the map.

"Hello, could you tell me where Wakana Village is?" Emily asked the store clerk.

Turning around, a big burly woman with a gigantic mole on her lower chin said, "What did you say, miss?"

Her hoarse voice irritated the trio's ears, making their eardrums tingle. "Sorry, we're looking for Wakana Village on this map," Emily said, pulling out her recently purchased map and presenting it to the clerk.

Not looking down at the map, the store clerk said, "Ain't no map that can tell you that, at least not that I sell."

Tilting her head, Emily asked, "What do you mean?"

"I want nothing to do with them, so beat it," she said and promptly kicked the trio out of the store.

Standing outside the campus store, the three looked at each other in bewilderment.

Right after Grace ran from Ryan's dorm room…

Grace meandered through the alleyways outside the boy's dorm with a forlorn expression.

The air was so cold that Grace could almost hear her bones crack as she walked along.

Keeping her eyes downcast, she didn't notice that the sun had vanished and nightfall had taken over.

'Why did I come here? There is nothing here for me.' She thought to herself again, not realizing that she was heading to the outskirts of the Academy's property. 'Mother was right. I shouldn't have tried to be the village's savior,' Her mind kept replaying scenes from her life back home, wondering why everything had ended up like this.

'I won't be able to see my family again, my village…Ryan. I might as well give up right now.' Sobbing uncontrollably, she tripped over a rock and fell flat on the ground.

"Excuse me, young lady?" A voice came from behind her.

Grace looked up to see who spoke to her and saw an older woman with a dark cloak shrouding her face standing there. "Yes... Can I help you?" Grace asked timidly.

"My name is Ino. What can I do for you?" The woman replied.

Grace sat up and looked around her, noticing the deserted area she had stumbled into, 'Oh well. Who cares if I'm scared, I'm going to die anyway.'

"Well," Grace paused. Then she started crying again. "I'mmm….dying," she blubbered, "and I want to go home."

Ino put a hand on Grace's shoulder, guiding her inside a nearby shack where Grace could get shelter.

"Sit here, dearie." the gentle old voice said. "I will make you some tea," as she pulled a small bag filled with various herbs and dumped it into a mug. Then taking hot water off her iron stove, she poured the water over the herbs and shoved the mug in front of Grace.

Grace looked up and muttered, "Thhhannnkk you," as she tried to wipe the tears and snot off her face with her hands.

The old lady said, "My name is Ino. I have lived here on the outskirts a very long time. When I saw you on the ground, I knew why you were crying. I can see it on your skin."

Grace howled, "Noooo, not yet. I don't want to die yet!"

Now, dearie, Ino said, patting Grace's hand, "I've seen a case like yours before, so I know what kind of ingredients are necessary. Here," Ino said, pointing to the mug. "Drink this. This special tea will remove the poison from your body."

Grace looked up at her, hope taking hold of her heart. "Really? This tea?" She tried to gulp the tea down but yelled, "It's too hot."

"Just let it cool a minute. In the meantime," Ino said, taking out several dried leaves and placing them into Grace's bag. "You will need these to treat your wounds and remove the remaining poison from your body." She then took some green leaves and crushed them up between her fingers.

Grace was still unsure about the woman's motives until the woman added, "What I am giving you is an ancient herb called 'Greenheart.' It is very rare. The best thing is that it grows in abundance in my homeland near our forest's edge."

Ino quickly put the rest of her ingredients back in her pouch and tied it closed once more. She extended her hand for Grace to drink, saying, "The herbs in your sack should also eliminate any remaining pain. You just have to keep chewing these leaves every few hours. But do not eat it all at once, or you'll get sick."

Grace gingerly held her pouch.

Ino continued, "It looks like you don't have anyone you can rely on here?" Ino asked, noticing how quiet and lonely she appeared.

"No..." she replied quietly. "I'm alone."

"Well," Ino began. "I might be able to take you wherever you might go."

"Really?" Grace whispered excitedly. "I want to go to my home, Wakana Village. I want to say goodbye, but if I live, I will introduce my savior."

Ino smiled gently and said, "Yes." She paused, glanced at Grace, and noticing that all the tea was gone, she began heading toward the shack door.

"Wait! Where are you going?" Grace called out after her. "Don't leave me!" She started running toward the exit.

A small smile played on Ino's lips as she stopped and turned, "Of course, dearie. I don't know where your home is. You must show me."
