Chapter 447: My Family's Darkest Secrets
Many things happened to me and my family within the duration of my summer vacation. It was a wild ride, but I was grateful that the majority of those events were positive and memorable.
As usual, things are getting better, if not constant, in the queendom. New laws had been established or modified lately. Before the summer ended, a quarter of our population were the only ones who we had yet to issue their last names.
Regarding the surnames, we surveyed the other nations' opinions about them. Overall, I should say that we gathered positive insights.
Apparently, they seemed to take a liking to it, especially the nobles, as they were fascinated by our long fancy names and were interested in trying it themselves. Though their respective nations should implement it first in their domain.
The queendom's matters aside, some things were getting busier in the palace as the remaining days of summer vacation were getting lesser and lesser. It meant that Big Sis, Iris, and I were going back to the empire to attend the academy in the next few days.
My sister and I were starting to miss our time with our loved ones before the classes resumed. For that reason, we had been doing Mom and Mother more often for the remaining days of our vacation.
Relatively, I just recently did Gabrielle, as it had been a few weeks since her pregnancy. She had shown signs of her pregnancy, so I thought that it would not affect or alter the child at the very least.
But really, having sex with a pregnant woman was a new and surreal experience for me, especially since the child was Mother's. The mixture of guilt and pleasure messed up with my mind, but I was already corrupted, so morals barely mattered to me at all.
One thing that I should settle was how to tell Dane my real relationship with my very family. She had yet to learn it, and I had no idea what would be her reaction or how she would understand it, much less accept it.
I had been providing her signs, like hugging my mothers from time to time and accidentally or intentionally touching them indecently. However, she did not seem to mind how physically close I was to my family. She might be thinking that I was a family thing.
I had a feeling that it would be better to reveal that sensitive revelation while I was still in the palace. The longer I hide this from her, the more damage she would get once she learned it. With that in mind, I promised myself to let her know the truth.
While I still had the opportunity to, I decided to unveil our secrets tonight. I invited Dane to my bedroom in the palace. Iris and Sophia had been here, and they would help me in this matter.
"Um, you summoned me, Your Highness, and it seems like Lady Iris and Sophia are here as well. Are we having a..?"
"No. We are not having a foursome tonight, Dane. I am sorry to disappoint you. Also, you are now my fiancee, so you can address me by my name anytime you want."
This was the first time my three fiancees were in my room, a great time for us to do our first night together. As much as I wanted that to happen, this confession was as important. Depending on how things developed, we might be doing the deed tonight.
"I understand, Raphael. So what are we going to do?"
"Actually, there is something I want to discuss with you again, and I need the help of these girls. Please join us in bed and have a seat."
As I said that, I tapped the vacant spot in between Iris and Sophia, telling her to sit there. I was actually sitting behind that spot. Our smiles were making Dane suspicious of why she had to be at the center.
"...It seems something serious. Please excuse me."
Upon my request, Dane got to the bed and sat in her designated spot. Right now, we were facing the foot of the bed and blankly staring at the wall.
"So, what now?"
"Dane."
Saying her name in a gentle tone, I slipped my arms between the gap of her arms and waist and embraced her from behind. After that, I slowly moved my face closer to her neck. She voluntarily tilted her head so that I could get more area to land my lips.
Dane was now getting more and more cautious of my actions, and she held my hands tightly. "I am getting worried now, Raphael. Can you tell me what is going on?"
"..." I hesitated for a few seconds. "I got to be honest with you. I am still hiding some dark secrets from you. What Sarah told you that night, the matter regarding the age range of my women, is just the tip of everything you should know. I am not alone with this, I have been doing this with my family."
"What are you talking about, Raphael...?"
"Words are not enough to convey the weight of this matter. Please pay attention to the projection in front of us."
"Projection?"
As soon as Dane turned her attention to the wall before us, a rectangular translucent panel had been projected from the projector device lying on the floor. Almost immediately, the projection lit up and live footage started to play.
The footage seemed to be set in a dim room illuminated only by a single lampshade and the moonlight passing through the windows. The camera seemed to be standing at the corner of the room, and the angle was set at eye level. It was stationary and focused only on the large bed in the middle of the room.
Four individuals could be seen in the room, and it was noticeable that they were all women. Dane thoroughly inspected the figures for a moment. When she recognized who the people were in the room, her wide widened by shock.
"W-wait...! Aren't they Her Majesty Mylene, Claire, and Gabrielle, and Her Highness Louise...?!" She yelled. "What really are we watching right now, Raphael...!?"
Tonight, Dane was about to witness the debauchery of the Raevender family.
