Chapter 241: CHAPTER 240

After finishing those preparations, Andrew instructed Oliver and Castor to guide Gaston, Erick, and Vala to the rooms where they would be staying. After the remodeling of the Heavenly Palace, there were many empty rooms, so he settled them there.

Candice also wanted to retire to her room as she was tired from all the things she had to fix during the day, while she would still continue to work in her office during the day the fact that she was not spending the night in her store was already a big change and adjustments were needed.

Because of all these changes she had a heavy day, so she wanted to rest, but before she could ask which was her room, she was dragged by Carolina, Helena, and Aki to the room next to the office, which was the room they and Andrew used.

Although a little surprised by the sudden action of her "Sisters" when she saw the room, she thought they were just guiding her to where she would sleep, but thinking that the room was next to the office, made her alert.

"Will this be my room?" asked Candice a little combative that it was so close to the office because she was no fool. If it was so close to the office, it meant Andrew could walk in whenever he wanted and she wasn't ready yet.

Helena being the perceptive one, understood what Candice was thinking and with a smile began to explain, "Candice, certainly this is your room, but it is also Andrew's room and ours."

Candice immediately understood what Helena was implying. It was obvious that this was where Andrew and his wives would be sleeping, therefore, she would be sleeping there too and just thinking that made her blush.

"You don't need to be nervous. I understand that you don't feel ready, but you need to be mindful of Andrew's identity," Helena spoke again. Candice was confused by these words, so she asked, "What do you mean?".

"Andrew is a candidate for Eros god, so he is linked to sex and eroticism. Don't be confused, he definitely loves us, but his love is explicit in intimacy, so you can't run away forever," this time it was Carolina who spoke.

Candice still looked confused so Helena continued the explanation, "Being Andrew's wife comes with a lot of sex. We know you are a virgin and don't have much experience in the field and that's why you feel insecure, but you can't run away forever or you'll never be his real wife."

"What do you mean by real wife?" asked Candice quizzically. Of everything Helena and the others told her, she only picked up on that one problem which showed how smitten she was.

The girls laughed as they listened to her and began to explain all about the points system and the wife seals. Andrew had told her about Fuffy and his abilities, but he hadn't detailed these points, so the girls explained it to her.

Candice was amazed when she listened to her sisters. Not only did she find the points and seals amazing, but the fact that they could acquire special abilities.

Once she understood everything, she wasn't so reluctant to sleep in the same room with them, but she was still nervous. Helena smiling told her, "Don't panic, we'll give you time, but honestly, I don't think we can hold Andrew for more than a week."

She paused and continued, "First spend this week sleeping next to him and get used to having him next to you, but after a week you're on your own," after saying that she explained the rule that the first experience would be solo.

Although Candice was still reluctant, she resigned herself, as she had no choice. At least she had gotten a week to ease her mind and prepare for what would eventually happen.

Andrew was ignorant of what his wives were planning, but even if he knew, he would not protest because a week did not seem too long to wait for Candice to get comfortable with him.

The night passed uneventfully and bedtime came. Andrew entered the bedroom to find his wives in bed waiting for him. He noticed immediately that the space they had saved for him was conveniently next to Candice and understood their intentions.

He wasted no time, changed his clothes, and lay down next to Candice who tucked herself up to her head so as not to see him out of embarrassment. It was the first time she had slept with someone in the same bed, so she was nervous.

Andrew didn't bother her because he knew he had to give her space, but, still, he hugged her gently and pulled her close to his chest. Candice was nervous because she didn't know if Andrew would start attacking her, but she was surprised that, other than hugging her and pulling her close to him, he didn't do anything else.

Despite the initial nervousness, as the minutes passed she felt comfortable and soon fell into the realm of dreams. The next morning, Carolina, Helena, and Aki got up earlier than usual, leaving Andrew and Candice alone in bed.

By the time Candice woke up and noticed that she was alone with Andrew, she started to panic, while cursing in her mind to Carolina and the others, for setting this trap for her.

Andrew who had been up for a while, noticed when Candice woke up and smilingly greeted her, "Good morning, sleeping beauty." Hearing this, Candice gave a little jump of fright, but quickly calmed down and replied, "Good morning."

"You don't have to be nervous, I won't do anything to you, I promised to wait for you didn't I?" said Andrew stroking her face tenderly. Candice felt comfortable with Andrew's caresses and closed her eyes, and Andrew took the opportunity to kiss her.

Candice did not refuse and reciprocated the kiss, although her inexperience was evident, but Andrew did not complain, as he somehow liked this sensation. After some additional kissing and caressing, Andrew decided to get up, as he was beginning to feel that he would lose control.

He was sure that if he attacked Candice, she would not refuse, but after saying that he would give her time, he did not find it convenient to attack her, so he preferred to run away from the situation and take a cold water bath to calm down.

When he came out of the bath he looked at Candice still in bed and said, "You should take a bath and join us for breakfast," then he left the room without waiting for Candice to respond.

Candice was covered up completely when Andrew spoke to her, but that wasn't because she had fallen asleep again, she was still embarrassed about what they had done and even though it was just some kissing and fondling, for her it was too exciting.

After Andrew left, she got out of bed took a bath, changed clothes, and left the room, where Vala was waiting for her in the office. Since Candice was not yet familiar with the Heavenly Palace, Vala was sent to guide her.

Although Vala, Erick, and Gaston were as new to the Heavenly Palace as Candice, they had toured the facility the day before, so they could already move about freely.

However, they were surprised when they arrived at the dining room because there were all the employees of the Heavenly Palace, seated at the same long table filled with a large amount of food.

Gaston and Erick, who were already seated, were also surprised when they arrived because they did not expect Andrew and his wives to eat so amicably with their employees at the same table.

It was not that it bothered them, but it was not common for the boss to eat with his employees, it was a matter of etiquette, but when they asked, they learned that Andrew was not governed by those values of the nobles, for him, they were all his family and he did not see why he could not eat with them.

Although surprised at the peculiar customs, they had to admit that they liked this inhabitant. They really felt like one big family and the breakfast was quite pleasant.

Candice enjoyed it as well. Certainly, she had eaten better delicacies, but the cheerful and friendly atmosphere somehow made her feel that it was the best meal she had ever had in her life.

After breakfast, Candice said goodbye to Andrew with an awkward kiss because of her embarrassment, as it still embarrassed her to give such public displays of love, but she made an effort to do it, so Andrew was content.

Castor accompanied Candice and her party as Andrew had instructed and so began the first of many days. In the morning a carrier pigeon arrived at Andrew's office, which surprised him, as it was not a familiar pigeon.

It turned out to be a message from Samuel Solaris, the heir to the largest hotel chain in the empire, informing him that the guest he had told him about would be arriving in three days.

Although it was not necessary for him to inform Andrew of this, Andrew was glad that he was considerate and informed him, as he could then warn his staff, so that they would not be disrespectful.

Candice and the others arrived at the store and summoned Canna because, to date, she was the only one in Candice's circle who did not know about the move and the death of Barcas and Duruma, so Candice planned to inform her of everything.

She was very surprised when she found out and asked to move to the Heavenly Palace like the others and Candice agreed, without consulting Andrew, as she believed that he would not refuse and she was not wrong, as he received her without problems.
