Leveling Up Wives In The Apocalypse

Chapter 67 Nadia's decision

“So that’s why you were so frantic back then,” Nadia muttered, taken aback by the revelation.

She knew the general idea of what happened and how Mathew got his hands on all the knowledge he shouldn’t have… But she didn’t know the details of the story.

“Wait, you seriously believe him?” Leila asked, refusing to accept Mathew’s words. “Isn’t this just some nice story to sweeten your relationship?” she asked as she raised her eyebrow to showcase just how doubtful she was regarding Mathew’s words.

“It all checks up,” Nadia shook her head. “Usually, he would be the one to get bullied whenever I entered the class. But when I did it today, he was changed,” the girl said to her love rival before shaking her head and turning her eyes back to Mathew. “You must’ve been through a lot,” she spoke softly before resting her forehead against Mathew’s shoulder.

“If you claim he speaks the truth, then I’m in no position to doubt his words,” Daria said. “Still, how come you returned to the time before the apocalypse if you wished to save Nadia?” she then asked. And then shook her head as if to ask to ignore the question she posed. “No, more importantly, if you knew of the apocalypse beforehand, why didn’t you do anything?”

“Right, they do not know,” Nadia muttered, a small smirk appearing on her face. “He did a lot. Back then, it didn’t make much sense for me, but he really did a lot.”

‘You are always ready to take my side, aren’t you?’ Mathew thought, turning his head a little to the side to cast a quick glance at the girl.

The young man’s soul was filled with hesitation and worry. Now that the school’s area was more or less secured, all the social fears and problems he buried in his soul started to resurface.

“What did he do?” Leila asked, putting her doubts aside as she looked at Nadia with curiosity. “Outside of that message urging everyone to go out, I don’t recall anything of importance happening,” she added and then shook her shoulders.

“I only know the things that he did up until the apocalypse proper started,” Nadia revealed, only for her eyes to flash a little. “Right, I’ve yet to ask, what did happen after I lost my consciousness?”

‘Urgh…’ Mathew’s entire body shrugged when his primary wife posed this simple yet extremely dangerous question. ‘How the heck am I supposed to tell her that I barely managed to save her this time?’ Mathew asked himself, averting his eyes as he was unable to look at Nadia’s face while trying to come up with some believable lie.

“Even if he did, I don’t mind,” Nadia didn’t let Leila’s words bother her at all. Yet, the same couldn’t be said about Mat.

“This isn’t the first time that I’m warning you,” he said, rising to his feet only to stand up straight and look the rude girl in the eyes. “But it’s the last time that I do.

“You are a valuable asset, a member of the group capable of pulling your own weight in a fight,” Mathew admitted Leila’s pros. “But if you don’t stop messing with Nadia, I will not hesitate before pushing you away.”

The air tensed up as the two seized each other with their eyes. Yet, this time, Mathew wasn’t going to give in.

‘It’s better to nip the bud of the trouble while it’s still small,’ he thought, staring down Leila’s eyes, ready to follow his words through right away if necessary.

And in the end, it was Leila that turned her eyes down.

“I’m sorry,” she apologized, only for her cheeks to turn red. “Seeing how close you two got so quickly…” the girl hesitated only to turn her face and then her entire body away. “I was jealous and worried I was losing all my chances,” she added as her voice turned softer and softer, almost to the point of disappearing.

The air was already tense… But Leila’s honest admission of guilt allowed the atmosphere to somewhat relax.

“I understand,” Nadia suddenly spoke up, raising up from her sitting position. Yet, despite what she just said, she still opted to wrap her arms around Mathew’s arm. “I understand that you came to like him. Didn’t he save your lives?” the girl asked, shaking her head and giving off a vibe of someone who made peace with just how powerless they were.

Nadia then took a deep breath before raising her face.

“I’m not ready yet to share him with anyone else. But I’m also aware that all the reasons why monogamy became a thing are now gone,” she admitted.

Nadia then took a quick glance at Mathew’s face, only for her cheeks to cover with blush as she retreated with her eyes to the side.

“Can you give me some more time to make peace with this situation?” Nadia requested, raising her eyes at Leila and looking her directly in the face.

“Tsk,” Leila clicked her tongue as she broke off the eye contact and looked away. “It’s hard to say no when you put it like this…” she said. Leila then bit on her lips as she raised her eyes back to Nadia’s face. “You are not going to monopolize him forever. Can you promise me that?”

“And when am I going to get any say in this matter?” Mathew finally decided that it was the right time to join the discussion.

“Shut it.” Nadia shot down Mathew’s attempt in an instant. “I know you for long enough to know that those two are just in your hit zone, aren’t they?” she asked before reaching out with her hand and grabbing Mathew by his crotch.

“I happened to sneak on you during several sessions of your jerking off,” Nadia suddenly revealed while a small smirk crept up her lips. She then added some strength to the grip of her hand, sending a strangely pleasant bout of pain down Mathew’s spine.

“And seeing for how long you could keep going back then, you won’t convince me you would fail to satisfy all three of us!”
