Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires

Chapter 321: Revealing The Truth - 1

After a while, Asher opened his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief. He was lying on his bed in his room in the Mystic Starry Realm, feeling comfortable on the soft mattress.

There was a faint smell of incense in the air, and the room was filled with dim lights that made it feel cozy and warm. It was perfect for relaxing after experiencing such a dangerous situation.

As Asher was enjoying the comfortable atmosphere, he noticed a familiar presence beside him and turned to look. Aria was sitting next to him with a mischievous smile on her face. As if reading his mind, she said, "I thought you would continue to act unconscious."

"What are you talking about, Mom?" Asher chuckled.

"Fufu... You know what I'm talking about. I thought my lover was a man who could tame all his women. Yet you chose to pretend to faint when Rias and Lysandra seemed to compete for your attention. A real man would take charge of the situation and handle those two." Aria giggled and continued. "Or perhaps you have become a weakling who can't handle multiple women anymore?"

"Heh. Of course not! It's called tactical retreat, my love," Asher said while caressing Aria's smooth and pale cheeks. He then continued, "They wanted to drag me into their argument for no reason at all, so I decided to escape their trap. However, I didn't expect to faint for real. And as an extra bonus, I get to see the beautiful smile of my mother first."

"Ara~" Aria giggled as she moved closer to Asher, her breasts brushing against his arm, causing his blood to rush south. "Are you saying that my smile is the best?"

"Of course. No matter how beautiful the other girls are, they can't beat the beauty of your smile." Asher said before leaning forward and kissing Aria's seductive lips.

The kiss started gentle but quickly turned passionate as Aria began to run her hands up Asher's chest while he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer.

Aria moaned into the kiss, enjoying the taste of Asher's tongue in her mouth. Her body trembled with excitement, and she felt her arousal building as she pressed her hips against his.

As they continued to make out, Asher couldn't help but reach for Aria's breasts and squeeze them. Her breasts were large, round, and firm, and they felt so soft under his touch. His other hand moved down to her ass, giving it a hard squeeze. This caused Aria to moan even louder as she felt pleasure shoot through her entire body.

Soon, the kiss turned into something more heated. Aria wrapped her arms around Asher's neck, pulling him close and deepening the kiss. Their tongues entwined and danced with each other, savoring the taste of one another. It was like they were devouring each other's souls. The pleasure that Asher felt was overwhelming, and he felt his cock harden even more.

"Ara, my son is so hard for his mother." Aria giggled as she felt Asher's manhood pressing against her stomach. "Shall we take this to the next level, darling?"

However, a tear dropped from Asher's eyes, which surprised Aria. She looked at Asher and noticed that he had an expression full of pain and sorrow on his face. It was as if he were carrying the weight of the whole world on his shoulders.

"Darling, what's wrong? Does your body still hurt?" Aria asked in concern as she stroked his hair.

"No. I'm okay. I was just overwhelmed by my emotions," Asher said as he wiped away his tears with his sleeves. He then gave Aria a weak smile and said, "I'm sorry. It's just that I remembered what I saw in the heart-demon trial of the Twilight Mist Sect. And I got scared."

"What did you see? Did I do something terrible to you?" Aria asked as her expression turned serious.

"No. It's not about you. It's about me." Asher's voice trembled as he spoke. He looked into Aria's eyes and became even more nervous, which made him hesitate to speak any further. He didn't know if it was right to tell her about the things he saw in the trial, especially considering the fact that he didn't know how she would react to such information.

Asher didn't want to lose her, but he also knew that keeping this secret hidden might cause unimaginable consequences. Who knows, if the real mastermind revealed the truth to Aria during critical moments, then she might end up getting hurt, which was the last thing he wanted to happen. So, it was better to tell Aria himself rather than risk having someone else do it.

Aria was about to say something but then decided against it. Instead, she chose to remain silent as she waited for Asher to continue.

"Mom, what I am about to tell you may shock you, so please listen to me till the end without interrupting me." Asher said while taking a deep breath. His heart beat faster, and his palms were sweaty. "Also, I want you to know that I love you more than anything else in this world."

Aria smiled and nodded. She could tell that Asher was serious about this matter, so she decided to respect his wishes and give him her full attention. "I know, my love. Now tell me what happened."

With that, Asher began talking about himself, the orphan Asher, who struggled to survive. He spoke about how he grew up in the orphanage and how he had no one to look after him and no money to support himself. He told her about how he was beaten, abused, and tormented by everyone around him. The way every day felt like hell to him. And how he never had any friends or loved ones in his life.

Then he explained how he lost his life due to four thugs who wanted to steal money and woke up as Asher Blake after his death.

"At that time, I thought it was a second chance at life. There were also feelings for all of you and memories of the dead Asher Blake. And I thought that I could just start a new life and enjoy it without having to worry about anything else.

However..." Asher paused for a moment as he took another deep breath and continued, "However, in the trial, I saw that it was all a dream created by my broken mind. So when I saw you with the real Asher Blake, I broke down. I couldn't bear the thought of losing you and the others. It was the most painful thing I had ever experienced."

Aria's expression became dark as she continued to listen. She didn't say anything, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

Seeing that, Asher became even more restless and hugged her tight, afraid that she would push him away. However, to his relief, Aria didn't resist.

After taking another deep breath, Asher continued. He then mentioned how he met Asher Blake in the soul space and how he found out that they weren't two different entities. No. He told about how he saw more different people becoming one person, including the orphan Asher and Asher Blake.

"Aria, I don't know who I am anymore. I don't even know what my real name is. The only thing I know for sure is that I love you. You are the only constant thing in my life right now."
