Mixed Blessing System

Chapter 204 Women Who Crave Commitment

After the previous action began, Lothur and Viktoria spent 5 hours in the bedroom, doing a little bit of everything while getting to know each other more deeply.

Viktoria was indeed intelligent and capable of learning. Because of this, it had not taken her long to get used to the complicated dance Lothur proposed, quickly reaching such a level that she could not help but stay with him much longer than she should have.

Lothur had the academy, and she had her responsibilities to House Frost.

The Province Conference was getting closer and closer, and with the competing powers of the Frost family looking to weaken them, Viktoria had to deal with problems daily.

However, during those hours at Lothur's side, she had not thought about any of it, only acting on her new desires.

By the end of it all, she had fallen for her husband as a new woman, one who knew what she wanted and needed to do!

...

"Lothur, tonight you won't have to see that redheaded girl, right?" Viktoria asked as she dressed and looked at him through a large mirror next to her bed. "I want you to come to dinner with my parents and me."

Lothur, who was finished tying his shoes, looked forward and saw his wife finishing putting on a light green dress. "I don't think I need to... I've already completed what I was doing, and I'll still see her at the academy. So, I can do that today."

"But why with your parents? Can't we have dinner alone, like the other times?" He asked in an attempt to get away from his vicious mother-in-law.

Lothur was skilled with poisons, but that woman could do him more harm than the worst poisons...

Viktoria then looked back and smiled. "Of course, I will tell them about us. Since we've become a de facto couple, there's no reason to hide it."

"Besides, I don't want them to question us because we will be living together from now on."

"What?" Lothur almost choked dry upon hearing such things.

'Damn it!'

'Why do my women want to take things so seriously? Every time things start to get good, they immediately want to throw me against their parents!'

'Sounds like they're desperate to tie me up!' He clenched his fists and looked down, seeing a mountain of trouble forming in front of him. "Isn't it better if we keep it a secret? I mean, your mother hates me. She'll kill me!"

She laughed upon hearing this and walked over to him. "Lothur, you have taken me. Time to take responsibility for what you've done!"

"Uh?" He looked doubtfully at her, making Viktoria's smile grow wider.

'So you have your weaknesses, huh?' She liked the look on his face, something she had always tried before but failed miserably. 'It's a shame I'm already yours now, or it would be fun...' So, she thought just before she sat down on his lap.

"Lothur, don't worry about my mother. I'll deal with her. You just need to act like my husband, and everything will be fine." Viktoria softly said. "For the rest, even if I compromise myself for the family, I have my freedom, and they won't be able to do anything if I want to be with you. So, rest assured."

"That's easy for you to say..." He sighed, imagining the nightmare he would have to overcome later.

She saw that he had not backed down and said. "Well, after you get through that, we'll have a night to ourselves. So, hang in there for a while, and I'll reward you later..."

She may have been inexperienced, but Viktoria had already realized how much Lothur had enjoyed being with her. Thus, even in her inexperience and even though she was probably going to be pleased more than he was, she knew she could satisfy him.

"Later?" Lothur looked at her and reminded himself that this would not be possible. "I'm sorry, but I'm going on a mission tonight. So, I won't be able to spend the night with you."

"Mission? With that girl again?" She rose from his lap and thoughtfully looked at him.

"No. Elke won't be going with me... Anyway, I'm going out on a mission to get more resources for my plans. Since I'll be busy with other things next week, it has to be now." He casually replied. "But won't we have the next week to be together?"

"There's no need to rush."

"That..." Viktoria hesitated, feeling better that he was not planning to go out with Elke but not liking having to part with him right now.

On the other hand, she knew nothing about Lothur. So, when she heard that he had plans, she could not help but be curious.

"What are these plans you have?" Her eyes sharpened in interest.

Lothur laughed upon hearing that. "You will find out soon enough. But for now, let's put that aside. It will be a nice surprise for you..."

She clenched her fists as she heard this, annoyed that he did not answer her as he had in the past, but a little better than before because of their new relationship.

"Is that because of those books you have? Are you studying those professions?" She asked about that.

The day before, Viktoria had brought Lothur's books to this residence. And in arranging them in a room specifically for such material, she had realized how surprising the books he was using were.

There were books on medicine, inscriptions, basic tailoring materials, plants for poisons, and spiritual theory.

Because of this, she became curious and even wanted to talk to him about it to understand what was happening.

So, at this opportune moment, she quickly questioned him about it.

Lothur smiled at her and said nothing about it. "Dear, I have to hurry to the academy. I'm already late, so we'll talk later."

After feeling her lips touch his briefly, Viktoria watched him leave while she still had many doubts in her heart.

"Sigh..."

'He still keeps secrets from me and doesn't answer me, but at least we are getting closer... Eventually, things will get better!' She clenched her fists, feeling energetic for the day ahead.

After that, she headed off to find her parents, with whom she had business to settle.

As for Lothur, this young man wanted to know about the effects of his fun with Viktoria, but unfortunately, he could not yet see her status to know how that would work with others besides Elke.

So, he made his way to the academy, where he would probably have to explain himself to Elke and Annaliese.

...

"Viktoria, what took you so long? I was just about to come after you!" Mabel looked strangely at her precious daughter, who had never been late before.

Aiken was curious, too, even more so considering the noble aura Viktoria had around her body right now.

'What happened to her? Looking at her, it even looks like she took some precious elixir...' He noticed the look that showed no weariness on Viktoria's beautiful face, which had a glow that was hard to ignore.

Mabel had noticed this too, but her daughter's education took priority over curiosity.

Viktoria then answered her mother, "I was with Lothur. We are starting to get along, so we spent all morning together."

"Oh?" Aiken smiled upon hearing that, "That's good news. I never liked the fact that you were so cold with him."

"Even in a fake marriage, I think it's best if the two sides at least become friends."

But Mabel was not as happy as her husband. "It's not bad to have a friendly relationship but don't waste your time with it. Suppose it can be done in your spare time, fine. But you were late for something important, Viktoria."

"Don't let that happen again. Don't pay too much attention to this boy's silly needs." She commented, having no idea that it was Viktoria who wanted time with Lothur, not the other way around...

As such, Viktoria ignored her mother!
