Chapter 9: The Abandoned Prince Demands an Explanation

“S-sorry!! Truly!! I’m really sorry!!”

Rosemary, now back to her senses after the aphrodisiac wore off, vigorously rubbed her forehead against the ground.

It was a typical bow of apology.

“N-no, you don’t have to apologize that much…”

“I, I let my desires get the better of me and did something terrible to you, Reichel. That’s unforgivable.”

“W-well… But, you know, I enjoyed it too. I mean, thank you, if anything.”

Honestly, I wasn’t bothered at all.

Rosemary was amazing, and it felt really good.

She was all over me, and it seemed like she wouldn’t let me go!! There was something deeply touching about that intense intimacy.

No, really. It was genuinely a blissful moment.

“And besides, it’s partly my fault for giving you that juice with the aphrodisiac. And, if we’re pointing fingers, whoever put that in my fridge is to blame.”

“Reichel…”

“And, you know, well… How about we just call it official? Like, uh, lovers…Eh, is that okay with you?”

“Y-yeah!! Lovers!! I want to be Reichel’s lover!!”

“Uh, yeah, it’s embarrassing when you say it so directly.”

An indescribable atmosphere began to develop between Rosemary and me.

Well, that aside.

“We need to find the culprit who put the aphrodisiac juice in the fridge.”

“Y-yeah, right.”

“Oh, well, there’s no need to search for them. Because I’m the culprit.”

“Wh-what!?”

Rosemary and I froze at the familiar voice.

Turning towards the source, we locked eyes with Alcarion, who was just coming out of my closet.

We were speechless.

“Y-your Majesty!? Wh-when did you get there!? And what do you mean you’re the culprit!?”

“Calm down, Rosemary. Let me explain everything, my entire plan.”

Well, first of all, I’d like an explanation for why you emerged from my closet.

“My dragon’s eye can read the emotions of others.”

“Wow, that’s amazing.”

“And I found out. Rosemary also harbored feelings for you, my dear.”

Alcarion remained as stoic as ever.

But there seemed to be considerable intensity in the words coming from her mouth.

“I have no intention of competing with my precious daughter for the same love interest. So I thought, why not just share you? That’s what I thought.”

“Why would you think that!?”

“So, I manipulated things. My dragon’s eye can also see all possibilities of what it sees. In essence, it can see into the future. And I saw it. I saw Rosemary accidentally revealing her feelings and drinking the chilled juice you prepared.”

“You’re abusing your abilities too much!! You’re too consumed by selfish desires!!”

I also agree with Rosemary’s retort.

To use eyes that can read the opponent’s mind or foresee the future without hesitation for one’s own desires is quite something.

With that, Alcarion held a bottle of juice laced with an aphrodisiac.

“So, I secretly put aphrodisiac-laced juice in the young master’s refrigerator. As planned, Rosemary drank it and crossed the line. And now it’s my turn.”

“Wha- Mother!? What did you do!?”

Alcarion took a sip of the aphrodisiac-laced juice and, for some reason, approached me.

Then, she advanced with agile movements.

I was so exhausted from sex with Rosemary that I couldn’t put up much of a fight, and Alcarion caught me as I was.

She kisses me deeply and forces me to drink juice containing an aphrodisiac.

“Mmgh!? Nggh, pffft!? —Ugh!”

The moment I drank the aphrodisiac-laced juice, my body heated up.

Even my beloved sword was fully revived.

In that state, Alcarion hugged me tightly, stroking my head.

I buried my face in her big boobs and involuntarily shook my hips.

I was like a monkey in heat.

However, Alcarion accepted it and gently guided me to the bed.

“W-What are you doing, Mother!?”

“Oh my, Rosemary. You’ve had your fun, yet you’re saying Mother can’t?”

“Ra-Rachel is my lover!!”

“If that’s the case, then I’ve been proposed to by the young master in the bathhouse. ‘I love you, marry me, let’s have children,’ he said.”

“W-What!?”

Indeed, I did say that.

Right after that, Rosemary realized and became speechless, but I did propose to Alcarion at that moment.

Alcarion remained expressionless as usual, but there was a sense of triumph in her demeanor.

On the other hand, Rosemary looked frustrated.

“If that’s the case!!”

And Rosemary approached me again.

Then, she came close enough for our lips to almost touch and whispered to me.

“Reichel!! Propose to me too!! I’ll bear your children, dozens, no, hundreds of them!! I’ll make you a father!!”

“Uh, I love you!! Marry me!! Have my children!!”

“Of course!! Mother, I’ve been proposed to as well!! Reichel belongs to me now!!”

Due to the aphrodisiac causing a decrease in my cognitive abilities, I instinctively complied with Rosemary’s request.

Alcarion didn’t intervene but simply watched quietly.

No, her lips seemed to be smiling…

“Now, Mother!! What do you intend to do? Monogamy is the norm in the Empire!!”

“No problem. I already have a solution prepared.”

“Huh?”

“Take a look at this.”

Alcarion pulled out a document from her cleavage and showed it to Rosemary.

“The young master can marry multiple wives, that’s the Empire’s law.”

“!?”

“However, I was reassured. If you were to back down because someone else you liked was taken, I was prepared to toughen your spirit from scratch.”

“W-What are you talking about?”

“I said it before, didn’t I? I didn’t intend to compete for the same man as my daughter, I intended to share. I never planned to monopolize this boy from the start.”

Rosemary stiffened while still holding me tightly.

Alcarion, unfazed, began to speak in a detached manner.

“Well, to be frank, I don’t want to fight with my daughter. So, I’ve prepared a compromise where everyone can be happy.”

“W-What would you have done if I hadn’t pressured Reichel to propose?”

“At that time, I acknowledged you as this boy’s lover. A wife and a lover are separate entities.”

Seeming to have calmed down a bit, Rosemary expressed her disapproval in her usual tone.

“Making laws just for that… Isn’t that an abuse of power?”

“It seems Rosemary doesn’t understand. Power exists to be abused. —Oh?”

Alcarion and Rosemary looked at me.

At that moment, I must have been exposing my ugliness as a man.

Pathetically clinging to both of them, I was relishing the sensation.

“It seems I teased him a bit too much.”

“Well, even though we just had our moment earlier. What an insatiable husband.”

“Then I shall be the first.”

“Mother, shouldn’t you yield to your daughter?”

“Weren’t you enjoying yourself just now? Besides, such instinct-driven acts are only pleasurable at first.”

“Hmph.”

“Improve your technique. That’s why I’ll show you how it’s done.”

Let’s cut to the chase.

While I don’t particularly like comparing partners in this manner, Alcarion is a veteran, having had seven husbands in the past.

There was no way I, who was exchanging my first time with Rosemary, could compete.

With Alcarion’s technique, which she used to pleasure me with a poker face, I was completely enchanted.

From her breasts to her thighs, from head to toe, every part of Alcarion’s body felt amazing.

And so, I found myself intertwined with two beautiful women, officially marrying both Alcarion and Rosemary, becoming their husband.
