Chapter 245: CHAPTER 244
They both lay back on the bed catching their breath, as they embraced each other affectionately. Gradually they recovered, but as the minutes passed, they both fell into the realm of dreams.
The next morning, Candice awoke much later than usual, as the previous night's actions had exhausted her. When she woke up and saw the time, she wanted to get up quickly, as she had to go to work, but she immediately felt a pain in her lower body and let out a soft grunt.
Andrew, who had already gotten up and was sawing her sleeping, hugged her and gently laid her back on the bed while he said, "Don't be reckless, you must rest today. Gaston and the others have already been briefed, so relax."
Candice wanted to refute, but feeling the stabbing pain in her lower half, she decided to heed him. Andrew accompanied her for a few minutes comforting her, as he had experience, since Carolina suffered in the same way.
In fact, of Andrew's wives, only Aki seemed abnormal, as she was the one he treated the most roughly on her first time and, even so, the girl did not suffer any pain or at least Andrew thought so.
The reality was that this girl was such a masochist that she endured the pain acting as if nothing happened. After accompanying Candice for a while, Andrew got out of bed, went to the bathroom to take a shower and after changing, left the room, but not without giving a kiss of goobye to Candice.
After leaving the room, Andrew went to the kitchen and informed Hector to prepare Candice's breakfast, to take it to bed. It was quite late by the time Andrew left the room, so he had missed breakfast as well, so he took the opportunity to eat with Candice in bed.
Candice seeing Andrew bring her breakfast and join her warmed her heart because she had never experienced such special treatment from anyone and only fell more in love with Andrew.
After breakfast, Andrew left again and Candice took the opportunity to lie in bed and think. She wasn't used to being inactive and she wasn't sleepy, so she didn't know what to do.
When she was uncomfortable in bed, Carolina, Helena and Aki came into the room and seeing her Helena immediately started to tease her, "Well, Miss Candice finally became a woman."
Helena's comment made Carolina and Aki laugh and Candice was embarrassed and red as a tomato replied, "Don't bother me." She looked very tender and Helena, Carolina and Aki couldn't help but smile.
After teasing her for a while, they approached the bed and started talking about what had happened the night before. Candice was so embarrassed she wanted to run away, but her body ached and she couldn't get up, so she had no choice but to answer her sisters' questions.
Throughout the conversation Candice was red with embarrassment, but she quickly adjusted, especially since Carolina and the others told her to prepare herself, as the courtesans would be more curious.
Candice did not understand the reason, why the courtesans would ask about her affairs, but her sisters explained to her that in the Heavenly Palace there were no secrets and even less if they involved sex.
She didn't understand the logic behind it, but she had no choice, she just had to go with the flow. If you're in Rome, do what the Romans do. After the talk with the girls, Candice was once again left alone and bored.
While Andrew reviewed the previous night's accounts. The profits didn't differ much from a normal night and that made him happy, as it meant that business had stabilized.
Since Candice had not gone to work, all of their business operations were left to Gaston and Canna, as they each handled the food and fashion industry respectively.
Erick and Vala did not attend, as they had no one to protect. Although Gaston ran the businesses, they knew that no one would attack him because as long as Candice was well, capturing Gaston was of no value.
Besides, they were recovering from the injuries sustained the night before. Castor was just like them, but he did not take the day to rest, but to train with Oliver because he had noticed his weakness and wanted to get stronger.
Oliver trained with him for a couple of hours, but he couldn't spend all day training him, as he had other things to do, so he recommended that he rest, but Castor didn't want that.
He wanted to get stronger fast and the only way he knew how was to train. Oliver wanted to stop him, but he couldn't. Oliver and Castor are very different, but there was something they had in common and that was their sense of commitment to Andrew so he didn't stop him, as he knew that, if he were him, he would do the same.
Unexpectedly, when Castor was left alone in the training room, he suddenly said as if speaking to himself, "How long will you stay hidden?", and from the shadows Vala appeared.
The girl was wearing her usual tight black outfit that enhanced her curves and looked very sensual, but Castor didn't notice that, as he was concentrating on training.
Vala tried to make conversation, but Castor paid no attention to her and it wasn't until she suggested training that his attitude changed. Although she is much weaker than him, training with someone else brought better results than training alone.
He never imagined that what started as a simple training session would end up in a more private place, but that's a story for another time. Erick like Castor was also training, as he felt useless on the last night.
After returning from his training, he passed Sonia who was returning from training the courtesans and they struck up a conversation for a few minutes. Somehow they became friends.
Andrew was ignorant of what couples were hanging out all over the Heavenly Palace, but even if he knew he didn't care. He didn't forbid them to have relations, although the courtesans were out of the question, so maybe if he found out about Erick and Sonia, he might get angry.
Since he had finished his activities, he went to find Carolina to get her out of her usual state of total concentration in the lab. Carolina had made great progress in her studies.
She could now create all the products Andrew had taught her with an 80% success rate, which was impressive, but she was a perfectionist, so she wasn't satisfied and so Andrew still had to come and fuck her to distract her and keep her from hurting herself from overexertion.
While in the lab Andrew was fucking Carolina, on the other side of town a strange event occurred. Out of nowhere one of the empire's food warehouses burst into flames and then chaos invaded the city.
Augustus, his ministers and Arturios immediately knew it was a retaliation from the kingdom of Tripia, for Demon's actions, but without proof they could not convict them, so with no other options they ordered Demon to strike back.
Belenio despite Dulma's warnings, preferred to attack the empire rather than compromise and now every day you could hear some riots and murders occurring in the kingdom of Tripia.
The empire was no different. in many cities similar news was heard, but in the lands of the elves and beastmen, all was calm, as they had reinforced their security and would not allow an attack like last time, so the kingdom of Tripia had no chance to attack them.
With relations increasingly damaged, the signs of war could already be seen and this had some people worried, among those Andrew, but there were also some excited, because chaos is perfect to perform dishonorable acts without being noticed.
Candice for her part was now protected by Castor and Oliver because with tensions so high between the two countries, Andrew would not allow another attack like the past, and since the Heavenly Palace was an impenetrable fortress, Andrew did not worry about his safety.
Candice had also grown accustomed to having sex with Andrew and the other girls, as the 5 of them slept together and almost every night they had sex, so her embarrassment was gone.
One morning while Andrew was going through the ledgers, Fluffy spoke up, "Master you have earned the necessary points, please proceed according to plan," and Andrew without hesitation, purchased the divine massage skill and physical strengthening.
Unlike the other skills he had purchased, this was the first time Andrew, felt a large amount of information pouring into his brain. Divine massage seemed simple, but it was far from it.
If this was coupled with the ability of his Eros eyes to see erogenous zones, Andrew could make anyone melt in pleasure with a single touch and thanks to the enhancement of his body, it could also be applied in combat, so Andrew had evolved.
Although he was not very strong yet, if he used his skills well, he could defeat an expert of Erick's level with relative ease, however, he would not go out to test that theory, after all he was not a fan of fighting, only if he had no other choice he would do it.
