Lust Knight

Inside a simple office, a cat-woman of about forty years old look at various papers on her desk.

"Damn, Mirya! Why did you give me such a difficult task... I am a warrior, not an administrator." The woman thinks out loud.

*Knock* *Knock*

She hears a knock on the door and quickly responds. "You may come in."

Before the woman even finishes her words, a young cat-girl completely wet and in a bathing suit enters the room. This young lady is the partner of the cat-girl named Lua.

She is obviously exhausted as she is having trouble breathing. "Nina... Ships... More than five... to the south..."

[More than five? They shouldn't be traders.] Nina becomes concerned, but she maintains a calm attitude while filling a glass with fresh water from the jar on her desk.

She gives the glass to the cat-girl. "Calm down and explain everything to me."

The cat-girl takes a small sip of water and quickly begins to explain how she met Lucien.

Nina is increasingly shocked by the cat-girl's words, and when she finishes reporting, Nina makes a relieved expression. "So Queen Eve has a brother..."

"Don't you doubt it?" The cat-girl is surprised by Nina's quick acceptance while she still can't believe that. "Is that because Elsie is with him? She is a fox, not one of us, even though we are allies."

Nina looks at the cat-girl with a stern expression. "We are not just allies; there are no more separate clans; we are the same people under the leadership of Queen Eve. So yes, I trust on Elsie's word, especially because she is very close to our Queen."

Before the cat-girl responds, Nina continues. "But actually, it makes sense... I mean, Mirya and I talked about it a lot. Queen Eve came out of nowhere, and nobody knows anything about her. But if she has a brother and he is as peculiar as you said, that makes sense. Eve is not a normal human, so her family shouldn't be normal either."

The cat-girl can't help but agree with Nina's words. "So, we shouldn't keep him waiting, right?"

Nina nods as she moves to the door. "Let's go!"

--------------------------------------

Lucien, sitting on top of the frozen golem with Lust on his lap, watches his girls playing in the water.

After seeing Lena and Marie surfing on ice boards, Anne and Elsie, followed by other girls, also wanted to try that, but only the mage girls, due to having full control of the board, or girls with excellent balance like Mia, were able to really surf while the others are having fun falling into the water.

Lua finds Lucien's group increasingly incredible. There are harpies flying around him, a half-manticore woman with beautiful wings, and of course, many other demi-humans on the ships behind him as well as humans.

[They are... moon tigers ???] She thinks as she looks at Oya playing with Little Ko and Estela in the water while Raquel watches them along with Cassidy and Angela.

Lua can clearly see that he is very different from the Alliance's men, starting with the fact that he acts lovingly with his wives while most Alliance men see affection as something 'feminine' and think that they have to be strong and rude.

Also, the women around Lucien make some things evident about him. The fact that he has so many extremely beautiful and also powerful wives shows that he is very powerful and also manages to satisfy them all.

Lua is impressed when she sees Madelyn levitating from Lucien's ship to his side on top of the golem. Madelyn's levitation is almost as good as Rose's because of her wind affinity, while Rose has advantages for being a vampire.

Lust stops taking Lucien's whole lap and makes room for Madelyn to sit on one of his legs. The fact that Lust can act spoiled like Envy but does not, but respects Lucien's other wives, makes him always love her more and more, a woman more than perfect indeed.

Lucien strokes Lust's thighs with one hand and uses the other to pats Madelyn's cute ears. "So... we're in the cat-clan, your old home. Is there anyone you wanted to visit?"

Madelyn finds it difficult to talk as she easily starts purring with Lucien's loving pats. "This is not my old home... the cat-clan I used to know in my childhood was very different and sucked. I had no space there... I was just an orphan waiting to serve a werewolf or manticore-man."

She kisses Lucien's lips while making a small swirl of wind in her hand, showing that her manipulation of the wind element is getting better and better.

Without stopping kissing, she talks to him mentally. "It... here with you has always been my destiny. I feel more and more powerful while I'm part of something great... from a real family. And the best of all is to have the affection of the man I love. Nothing more matters to me."

Lucien kisses Madelyn even more passionately, making a mess in her little mouth with his dominant tongue.

He knows that some of his wives cannot forget desires for revenge even though they want to believe it, while others like Rose have other kinds of concerns.

Still, some girls like Madelyn had as main problem finding a place to belong and a family to support them, so it's not strange that they're totally satisfied with things as they are and don't care about the past.

Lucien pleases Lust and Madelyn for a few minutes while feeling the jealousy of Amelia and Envy getting stronger, so he prepares to call them to play in the water, but at the same time, Lust warns him of several people going towards them.

He looks towards the beach and sees women going towards him at high speed, using water magic to propel boards over the water.

The cat-clan doesn't have a lot of resources to build so many strong ships, so they prefer to use magic to move around areas near the port faster.

Nina and other cat-girls quickly arrive in front of the frozen golem. She is still surprised by Lucien's appearance, even though that cat-girl has warned her about it many times.

[Damn!! Is it possible for a man to be that handsome? And those horns... Queen Eve's family is really complicated...] Nina has several thoughts in a second while she gazes at Lucien.

Lucien can't help but think a few things while looking at Nina too. He first looks at her cute ears while her mature charm catches his eye.

But then he feels Madelyn getting a little apprehensive. All of Lucien's wives have realized that he has a certain additional interest in mature women and cute features, so Madelyn fears that she will have to share Lucien's pats with another woman with similar characteristics to hers. It is already challenging for her to "compete" with the cuteness of Oya and Ko.

As soon as Madelyn starts to worry, she hears Lucien's voice in her mind as he continues to patting her ears. 'Do not worry. I don't have the intention of looking for more women. In fact, there is no chance that I will bring any of these cat-girls with us even though they are charming, as I don't want to have to share our time more.'

Madelyn's heart is filled with an extremely pleasant warmth as she looks at Nina and the other cat-girls with a prideful expression.

"You are Lucien, right? Queen Eve's brother..." Nina wastes no time and starts talking to Lucien respectfully.

Lucien nods. "Yes."

Nina notices Elsie next to Anne, but she doesn't even think about trying to confirm anything with her because that would be doubting Lucien's word, and she already believes him because his facial features are very similar to Eve's.

She bows. "I'm sorry for making you wait. This area is dangerous because of pirates, so my girls always tell me about the arrival of visitors."

Lucien tries to smile amiably, but Nina feels her heart beating faster while her feminine instincts are easily aroused by Lucien's charm.

"It's alright. I have no intention of staying in the cat-clan but going to Viset and Elsie told me that this is the fastest way." He explains.

Nina wonders why Lucien is not next to Eve but is going to Viset. [Perhaps he is here to take care of the throne in Ghalenna's place? Well, this is not something I should get into.]

"Let's go to the port then." She says.

"Yes. Join me." Lucien talks to Nina as Angela creates an ice ladder from the water to his ship for the girls to climb up easily.

Nina and the other cat-girls board Lucien's big ship, and she bows again. "Thank you, my lord."

"King. He's our King now by order of the Queen." Elsie speaks while feeling that it's not bad to call Lucien her King.

"King?? But you are siblings..." Nina can't help thinking out loud.

Lucien knows he could avoid some problems by not claiming the title of King, but since Eve wants to unify the continent, it could be damaging to the people of Portgreen, especially men, because of her feminist politics.

Not that Lucien cares about any man other than his good friends Ron and Alden, and maybe his male troops, no royal guards of Portgreen, but he doesn't want Portgreen to become just another part of the Alliance and lose the quality of being a free place for everyone like Cassidy's father intent.

"It's complicated... Our family is very close, and as I'm Portgreen's King, our continent will be led by both Eve and me." Lucien explains to Nina.

Nina is surprised again. "Portgreen's King? Are you the handsome Devil?"

Lucien smiles as Nina mentally curses herself. [Of course, he's the handsome Devil. Who else could be... and this title seems to be incredibly accurate.]

He orders his troops to sail towards port while he talks to Nina.

------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, on a small island north of the port of Oxard, a group of mercenaries is preparing several ships for a raid.

The leader, a tall man with long blond hair, speaks to one of his spies. "Are you sure about that?"

The spy quickly responds. "Yes, boss. My boys and I found out that Mirya left Oxard a few weeks ago with her elite warriors to follow their new Queen into battle against the Light Empire."

The blonde man smiles maliciously. "Good! Excellent!! At best, this new Queen and that bastard kill themselves, and together they take down the damn Light Empire together. And then after the dust settles, new legends will rise."

The spy nods. "Yes, boss. And the beginning of our conquest will be the cat-clan. There are still strong warriors among them, but I am sure this will not be a problem for our group."

The blonde man laughs. "A clan mainly of women? Cat-girls? Come on; they'll be easy prey for us."

"Are you underestimating women, Theodore?" The blonde man hears a deep voice behind him.

Theodore looks back and smiles at Bowen. "Not all women are like her, my friend. Also, cat-girls are the weakest demi-humans among the Alliance clans."

Bowen laughs maliciously, too. "Oh, well. I really need new sluts... I'm going to love having the little mouth of a car-girl sucking on me."

"Exactly!! Today will be a great day for us. We will take a big city full of resources and women to serve us." Theodore exclaims and continues to give orders to his mercenaries to prepare the ships.
