The Moonlight Swordsman

Chapter 274 Pinky Promise

?

When Aizel's eyes met Daisy's, an instant, wordless bond formed between them.

Drawing nearer, Aizel's head tilted gently, closing the distance between their faces. The soft touch of their lips sent a surge of electricity through their veins. It was a sweet moment that set off many feelings.

"I hope you won't be overconfident today. I don't want to lose you," Daisy whispers.

Aizel pulled her closer and hugged her tightly.

"Don't worry, I will make sure to return safely for you and the kids," Aizel replied.

"Mummma....."

As the door creaked open, Lily stumbled into the hall, her eyes heavy with sleep and a soft yawn escaping her lips. 

She rubbed her tired eyes and blinked in surprise when she saw Aizel and Daisy in a scene where they were enjoying a cake feast.

"Why are you up, baby?" Daisy asked.

"Aizel, you are here." She rushed directly and hugged Aizel.

"What happened, little girl? Why did you wake up?" Aizel asked.

"I wasn't able to sleep properly, then I saw mumma had gone somewhere, so I went to check on her.

"But you both are enjoying the food alone at night," She pouted.

"Here, have a bite."

She took the cake bite from Aizel's hands. 

"Wow, it's so delicious. What is it?"

"It's called cake," Aizel replied with a smile.

"From now, this is my favorite food," 

"It seems you really like it," Daisy said.

"Mumma, Can Aizel sleep with us today? I want to sleep with him, please please please,"

Both Daisy and Aizel seemed to get flushed after hearing her request.

[fufu, nice one, Lily]

"I..

"Yes, he can. Let's go and sleep now." Diasy suddenly said.

"Is it really okay?"

"Yes, don't worry. We have plenty of space on our bed, hihi," Lily giggled.

She quickly grabbed Aizel's fingers and took him to their room.

Sekki, make me stop no matter what if things escalate too quickly."

[Why are you still hesitating, Master? You have kissed so many times, and it's clear she also likes you]

It's not about kissing or liking me. You already know about her past, right? I don't want to do it for now."

It is still too early for that, and I... I love her. I am not after sex."

Lily, her eyes bright with joy, leaped with all her might into the soft, welcoming bed. She put herself between Aizel and Daisy in an elegant way, finding comfort in the warmth they gave off.

"It's like I am sleeping with my dad." She suddenly said that and quickly hugged Aizel.

"Mumma told me that my father died when I was born."

Aizel glanced towards Daisy, who simply nodded, caressing Lily's head.

"Do you miss your parents, Aizel?"

Her sudden question surprised Aizel.

"I don't remember my dad, but recently I have started to remember my mom," Aizel replied.

"She must be beautiful."

"Yes, she is," He replied with a smile.

"Where is she? Why don't you take us to meet her?" 

"I...i.. he sighed.

"I will take you soon to meet her when she comes back. She has gone on a long trip."

"Promise?"

"Pinky promise,"

"Hihi, what's that?" Lili asked while giggling.

Aizel held Lily's pinky finger with his and then shook it three times.

"This is called pinky promise. Now our promise is bonded in our both pinky fingers." He replied.

"I love you Aizel, only if I was a little big, I would have married you," Lily said.

"hehe, now go to sleep."

"Goodnight,"

The Next morning,

Aizel's face was bathed in a soothing warmth that beckoned him out of his slumber and into the embrace of reality. 

He opened his eyes with a soft yawn. When he did, he saw the soft hue of the sunlight coming in through the window.

And there, in the soft light of the morning, he saw a scene that made him feel quite pleased.

Nestled in his arms, Daisy and Lily slumbered, their faces serene and angelic in the soft rays of dawn. The strands of sleep stuck to their faces, giving them a look of childlike innocence.

"It seems you had a great night, Mr. Aizel," Shelly said.

She was standing near the half-opened gate. 

"This isn't what you think,"

"It's okay, Aizel. I am happy for you. I have never seen you happy so much.

"It seems they all have become your new family."

"What are you even saying? You are my family too. You were always there for me, Doc."

"Geez, you and your sweet talks. Wake up and come to the hall, breakfast is ready." With that said Shelly turned and left towards the hall. 

"Both of you wake up; breakfast is ready."

In unison, mother and daughter opened their eyes from their slumber to a world bathed in the gentle light of dawn. 

As their gazes wandered through the room, a shared focal point emerged – Aizel.

"Good morning, Aizel." Both said it at the same time.

Why am I suddenly having a husband-type feeling?" He thought.

"Come, everybody is waiting,"

The duo woke up from the bed and headed towards the bathroom. 

In the meantime, Aizel headed towards the hall and found Vespara and the kids already seated and having breakfast.

"Y-You... How could you do this to me? I wanted to be the first to pop your cherry, pretty boy." 

As soon as Vespara looked at Aizel, she went through a sudden change that made her fall to her knees. Her eyes, which used to be bright and alive, were now dull and dark, like the bottom of an empty pit.

"Stop your acting, hag. Nothing happened between us; It's just that Lily wanted to sleep together with me and Daisy."

"I knew it. Daisy isn't that bold to do that. It seems I still have a chance.

"If you win today in under 5 minutes, pretty boy, you can do whatever you want with me.

"If you like really rough, I know some methods too." Vespara licked her lips as she gazed at Aizel's body.

"Hey Alora, long time no see."

Vespara's eyes went in horror as she turned back, only to find there was no one. 

"This was only a warning. Next time you might really find her standing behind you," He replied with a smile.
