Chapter 336 Sebastian’s Advice
Ethan was feeling so comfortable that he was unwilling to open his eyes and wake up.
He could tell that his head was nestled in something soft, which made him even more reluctant to leave his bed to start the day.
However, he knew that he had to get up, or else, the men of the Oswald Family might discover him. If that were to happen, he was sure that they would start a ruckus.
When he opened his eyes, he instantly understood why he felt something soft pressing against his face.
His head was buried in the bosom of a young lady, whose hands were wrapped around his head, holding him in a gentle embrace.
However, after he came to this realization, another thing caught his attention.
‘The size seems different,’ Ethan thought as the last dregs of sleep inside his head faded, allowing him to think clearer.
He slightly raised his head in order to identify the woman who was embracing him close to her chest.
It was at this moment that his body stiffened upon finally seeing whose “softness” he was reluctant to part with just now.
‘… I knew it,’ Ethan mused to himself as he looked at the sleeping face of his cousin, whom he had known since they were kids.
Among all his lovers, he had known her the longest. And of course, he had strong feelings for her as well. However, faced with the decision of staying for a while longer or leaving the room, Ethan still chose the latter.
As much as he wanted to stay, he didn't dare to take the risk of being discovered, which would definitely lead him to more trouble in the future.
The young man then carefully pried off Chloe’s hands from his head before giving her a kiss on the cheek.
He did the same to Luna before getting off the bed as gently and slowly as possible.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFortunately, the two girls didn’t wake up, which made him sigh in relief.
He glanced at them one last time before silently opening the window. He jumped into his Wind Dancer and started to fly back into his own room, acting like he had spent the night there, sleeping without any worries in the world.
A minute after the young man left their room, Chloe’s and Luna’s eyes slowly opened.
Although Ethan had done his best to get out of bed as quietly and gently as he could, it was simply impossible since he was sandwiched between the two ladies.
Even so, they still didn’t open their eyes and pretended to be asleep, fooling Ethan into thinking that he managed to slip away without waking them up.
The two exchanged glances and smiled at each other before closing their eyes once again.
The sun still hadn’t risen. However, the light of the dawn was bright enough, allowing Ethan to see his surroundings. He carefully opened the window of his room and entered it without too much effort.
The young man stretched his arms and yawned for a bit. His body felt energized due to the fact that he spent the night with his two lovers and was able to sleep peacefully in their embrace.
‘I wonder what my in-laws are planning today?’ Ethan thought. ‘I’m sure that they are very pissed about what happened last night.’
Ethan knew that the more he succeeded in escaping the traps that the men of the Oswald Family had set for him, the angrier they would get.
But it wasn't like there was anything he could do about it.
He couldn’t simply allow himself to fall for their schemes and hurt himself in the process. Although he didn’t mind some physical pain, he was certain that Luna might start to hate her family if something really did happen to him.
To ensure that his lover wouldn’t have a falling out with her family, he needed to stay strong and survive unscathed from the schemes that the men of the Oswald Family had prepared for him.
A few hours later…
Ethan, Chloe, Luna, and Emma rode their broomsticks, following Bruce and the other men of the Oswald Family to their favorite fishing spot, which was a mile away from their residence.
Ethan and Chloe both liked fishing, so they were looking forward to this activity.
On the other hand, Luna was also excited since she never had the opportunity to try it before. As a girl, she was trained to be a good wife by her two mothers.
Instead of fishing, they taught her how to sew, cook, and dance, what noble etiquettes were, and some other practical things that would allow her to adapt in any situation.
Thanks to this, she grew up with a good head over her shoulders despite the fact that she was a very shy person.
It was only during her First Year in Brynhildr Academy, when she was sent to Dud Manor, that the young lady slowly opened up to the kind and caring members of the Manor, which many considered to be the worst place in the academy.
Things became even better after she met Ethan, who was now her lover. Because of this, she was willing to try new things, and fishing was one of them.
Emma, on the other hand, neither liked nor disliked fishing.
Just like everyone in the Meredith Clan, she was taught fishing as part of their survival skills training.
In her eyes, fishing was just one of the many ways to acquire some food in order to survive. Nothing more, nothing less.
But even this standoffish beauty, who only showed her true colors to Ethan when they were alone, was also looking forward to this fishing trip.
She could tell that Luna’s father, Bruce, was planning something.
‘Unfortunately, they picked the worst place to lay a trap for Ethan.’ Emma smiled internally.
Ethan was currently riding on her broomstick, while Luna rode on Chloe’s.
Both of them were Duds, so they could not ride flying brooms on their own.
The men of the Oswald Family believed that Ethan had someone’s help last night, and their prime suspect was Emma.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA Dud couldn’t possibly do the things he did, so this was the only logical explanation.
Looking at his father-in-law from behind, a frown appeared on Ethan’s face.
He wanted to tell Bruce, Irene, and the rest of Luna’s family that Luna wasn’t his only lover.
The young man didn’t know how they might react if he dropped the news that Chloe and Emma were his lovers as well.
The men were already hostile to him because he wanted to make his relationship with Luna official.
If he were to admit that he had more than one lover and that he even planned to have five wives and one mistress, the men of the Oswald Family might just throw caution to the wind and gang up on him then and there.
‘This is a bit tricky…,’ Ethan thought helplessly as he asked his Other Half for help. ‘Do you have any advice for me?’
‘Get Luna pregn—“
“Okay. You can shut up now. Asking you was a mistake. How about you, Sebastian?”
Ethan shook his head helplessly because he forgot that his Other Half didn’t care what method was used as long as the desired result was reached.
“I can’t give you any advice,” Sebastian replied. “The Tide Bringer only had to smile at a beautiful lady, and her entire family would happily welcome him with open arms.
“In his time, being his bed warmer was the greatest honor for women, so he doesn’t have your problem. But if I am being honest, I can only think of one way.”
Ethan looked at the Guardian of Zentris, who was looking at him with a devilish smile on his face.
“Prove to them that you are strong enough to protect their treasured daughter,” Sebastian stated. “Since you are already headed to a lake, why don’t you use the territory to your advantage? Sure, it might not be the Sea, but it’s the next best that you can use as the perfect battlefield.”
Ethan sighed in his heart. He originally planned to fight Luna’s family members as a last resort, but it seems that he would have to push his plans forward sooner.
The sooner they accepted him, the faster he could build strong bonds with Luna’s family.
