Capítulo 87: Unconditional

Kalia and I had been looking around in wonder for a few minutes now, taking in the threads that seemed to weave together the world around us.

When Rhefia stepped into the house, I stiffened as the threads around her clung to her chocolate skin, each thread inside of her a dark brown that shone brightly.

The tall Deerkin stared at us in confusion when she noticed our gazes, making me blush while Kalia scrambled to her feet, launching herself forwards.

"Dama!"

Hugging Rhefia's waist, Kalia giggled as she started explaining our new skill, making Rhefia's eyes widen.

She glanced at me as I stood up, and I hesitantly nodded, deactivating {Mana Sense} and stepping into the kitchen.

Grabbing her a cup, I poured out some of my milk from a waterskin and handed it to her, the Deerkin staring down at the excited Dark Elf girl.

"-then I tried to touch the threads, and some of them even responded to my touch! It was so cool!"

Seeing her so animated and excited, I smiled gently as her pink hair bounced around with her movements, before meeting Rhefia's gaze again.

There was a complicated light in those amber orbs I loved so much, but overall they were filled with joy as she listened to Kalia speak.

Giggling softly, Kalia spun around and skipped over to me, her wide grin making me grin as well.

"Mama~! Thank you so much~!"

Nodding, I stroked her pink hair out of her eyes before crouching in front of her, placing a kiss on her brow.

"Kalia dear, go outside for a bit, alright~?"

The little Dark Elf nodded, her smile still warm as she turned and rushed out of the door, likely to explore this new world of threads.

"So..."

Hearing Rhefia's voice, I pursed my lips as I stood up, my shoulders slumped as I wrung my hands out in front of me.

"I left this morning to her not knowing what magic was, but apparently, not only are you able to see it, you just... touched her brow and she now has the ability to see mana?"

Biting my cheek, I timidly nodded as I stared at the ground, listening to her continue on, her voice steady.

"Not only that, but it seems that Camara just suddenly... has the ability to close her womb, even though she has mainly Deerkin blood in her veins? Unless this is like you, where you just also suddenly gained the ability to close your womb when we were first together?"

I bit harder into my cheek, trembling slightly as she grew closer.

"Astra, what are you?"

Tears sprung to my eyes, and I opened my mouth to speak, but nothing came out.

Blinking a few times, I sniffled as I gulped again, my throat drying up as Rhefia's feet entered my vision.

Sighing, the Deerkin wrapped her arms around my back and pulled me into her embrace, my eyes widening as she hugged me tightly.

Stroking my hair, she whispered "I have no idea what a 'human' is, Astra, but I love you nonetheless. I love you, I love Camara, I love Aethisia, I love Kalia... Maybe I should be worried about what you are, but I just can't find it in myself to care.

Ever since I met you that first fateful night, you managed to ensnare my heart with your beauty, and I'm sure a part of it had to do with how broken I was as well, but I don't regret deciding to stay with you, and I don't think I'll ever regret it in my life.

Meeting you was the best thing to happen to me, Astra. So much has changed ever since we became mates, and I know for a fact that I am the luckiest woman ever to have managed to make you fall in love with me as much as I have you.

So, even though many might think me crazy for not wondering why my wife has so many... 'warning signs', I will continue to love you until I die, Astra. For the rest of my life, and even in the afterlife; I will love you always, no matter what you are or what you do."

My tears streamed from my eyes, and I buried my face into her chest, my heart swelling with emotions as she hugged me tighter.

What I was doing was blatantly displaying my powers, and there was always a very small part of me that wondered if Rhefia would view me with disgust or hate if she learned about what I am and what I have.

It was a fear; a well founded, rational fear that clouded my mind, always lingering just behind every thought I had.

Hearing her words just now cast those fears away, and I sobbed as I clung to her body, her unconditional love for me making me an emotional wreck.

To love something you don't understand, something that you can clearly describe as unnatural...

Bawling my eyes out, I clung to Rhefia, to my wife, to my lover.

To accept that, to tell that person that you don't care about those things, that you still love them either way...

When I finally calmed down, both because I used up too much energy and because my emotions were slowly turning to something else, I grabbed her hand and guided her upstairs, where I would show my gratefulness the best way I knew how.

Pushing her onto the bed, I stripped and mounted her cock, sliding her into me before I started riding her, pressing my ample breasts against her muscled chest as I kissed her, the taste of mint calming me down even more.

Accepting my surge of lust, Rhefia held me close to her as she let me ride her, the Deerkin kissing me back with equal passion.

That night, we never once removed ourselves from the others body, and our lovemaking lasted longer than ever before.
