As the group of younger girls attacks Lucien with hugs and kisses, the other women of the group watch with smiles on their faces. So Sophia takes Amelia and Claire to the ship's deck, followed by Rose, as well.
"Sister!!" Upon seeing Claire after nearly a year apart, Donna jumps over her sister and hugs her tightly.
She wanted to do that to Lucien, but she feared she would be too aggressive with the other girls or even unsure what sort of thing could happen in such close contact with him.
Eve's smile gets even brighter when she sees all her siblings together again. Although Pride had told her that they should stay away more time to become stronger alone without getting in each other's way, Eve never agreed with that, and thanks to Lucien, keeping everyone together seems like a good plan now.
Everyone seems very happy about the reunion, but Naomi looks at Claire with a strange expression, which Eve notices.
'I warned you about this; there's no way to stop rivalries between the hosts of Envy, Greed, and Gluttony; they usually fight for similar things, and your brother will certainly be the biggest reason for disagreement between them.' Pride speaks in her mind.
Eve is still trying to accept the incestuous relationship between Lucien, Sophia, and Amelia. She tries to convince herself that by getting stronger together, they are making it to keep their family alive and that she shouldn't try to stop them from using such infinite potential.
But things like the corruption of their siblings' relationship, and especially the problems it could create for their future children, still haunt Eve's dreams.
Eve can't stop thinking about bizarre things like how Lucien and Sophia's children would have him as father and uncle, and she as mother and aunt.
But as she tries to deal with that already bad situation, Pride brings her more bad news, leaving Eve fearful that her family could become even more broken.
[He's the only man who could satisfy our feminine needs...] Eve remembers some weird words from Naomi and wonders if that was really a stupid joke.
She shakes her head to try to stop thinking about that and approaches her sister, speaking in a soft tone. "What's wrong? I thought you would be the first to hug Claire."
"No one likes hugging more than Donna..." Naomi responds and then looks at Sophia with a teasing smile. "Well, maybe except when it comes to Sophia and Luci."
"Ehhh..." Eve wanted to avoid that subject, which left her somewhat embarrassed. "Anyway, you
Naomi smiles and then hugs Eve, resting her face between her beasts and breathing deeply. "You don't smell as good as Luci but are still pretty fragrant."
"Ahh!" Eve is taken aback by Naomi's surprise attack, and those words remind her how good Lucien smells and how much she missed his fragrance.
Though she doesn't seem to take anything seriously, Naomi's teasing smile quickly turns into a concerned expression, which she tries to hide between Eve's breasts.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Staying on that little moon was horrible..." She starts to explain. "Those people weren't good, but I don't think they deserved that end."
Eve hugs Naomi and lets her vent. "Gluttony made me devour everything that had energy in that place, and Greed made Claire absorb everything else that was precious..."
"As generally things that have good energy are also precious, we went after similar things. And at some point, the Sins made us compete for the same things..."
She makes a sorry expression before continuing. "We almost fought because of stupid things like weapons from random people we killed... we knew things were going to get really bad."
"But then we discovered the portal to this world, and we didn't think twice about using all the resources we had left to come here." She explains.
"Even in a place with so many resources and possibilities, we knew that staying together would only cause more disagreement and competition between us, so we agreed to go our separate ways. The plan was to stay as far away as possible, but..." Naomi gazes at Claire with a vague look.
While Eve is sorry for that situation, Pride speaks in her mind. 'This isn't your sisters' fault, but it's not my sister's fault either. It is because such sinful natures are somewhat similar, and that's why staying away was so important in the early years after the soul contracts.'
'Instead of telling me how bad it is, why don't you try to tell me some solution?' Eve questions Pride. 'Aren't you the supposed leader of the group?? You should know how to get them to cooperate, don't you?'
'It's not that simple.' Pride answers. 'Envy doesn't generate demonic energy by devouring or absorbing things, but the abilities of Gluttony and Greed work essentially the same way, making resource sharing very difficult.'
She continues. 'They're like endless pits, and the more resources they have, the stronger they get, so sharing is actually stupid as it would cut their progress in half. However...'
Eve feels there's hope given Pride's optimistic tone. 'What?? What can solve this problem without affecting their progress?'
'Your brother, of course.' The answer makes Eve's head ache.
'...' She doesn't know what to say about that. It looks like a solution that generates other problems, needing other solutions either.
Pride understands Eve's feelings better than anyone else and so tries to help her accept that. 'Since Envy manages to share Lucien with so many women, I believe he can handle Gluttony's needs, even without the need for Naomi to have to be directly involved...'
Eve likes that suggestion a little as it would avoid another sibling relationship getting corrupted, but she doesn't like the fact that her little brother has to satisfy another Sin's needs.
'What about Greed?' She asks.
'She will be more complicated because while Gluttony's focus is energy, Greed likes treasure.' Pride explains. 'Yet, I don't see how to stop her from trying to have Lucien for her alone either.'
Eve sighs as she tries to think of a solution to their future problems. But then she notices something troubling and questions Pride again. 'Wait! Didn't you say that Gluttony is like an endless pit? Wouldn't it be dangerous for Luci to try… you know, satisfy her?'
Pride finds herself in a really bad situation. She wants to answer Eve's question by explaining how much she respects Lucien and trusts his abilities. But her nature makes it painful for her to praise someone that much.
But since her nature makes lying even worse, she tries to give a neutral response. 'He's already surprised me many times, so I won't underestimate him again.'
Pride's tone is totally uninterested, and she even seems to make fun of Lucien for allegedly underestimating him too many times. Yet, she can't hide all of her emotions from Eve due to their connection.
Eve even looks at Pride with a thoughtful expression as she mentally talks to her. 'Pride, be honest with me... do you want to fuck my brother?'
[DAMN!] Pride again finds herself in an uncomfortable situation. While she definitely doesn't want to lie, she, as the most perfect creature in the universe, supposedly having everything she needs in herself, couldn't want so badly something that only someone else could give her.
Since both the truth and the lie would be detrimental to her and Eve's evolution, Pride returns her question with another question. 'What about you? Don't you want to fuck him?'
[Of course not!] Eve tries to answer Pride, but those words just sound in her own mind, so she tries again. [NO, NO, NO...]
Pride makes a slight movement with her eyebrows, provoking Eve. 'Can't you lie?'
Just as Pride's nature forces her that way, it also influences Eve. So unable to lie, she counters with another question as well. 'Why would I want that???'
'Out of curiosity, naturally.' Pride quickly responds. 'I mean, we're surrounded by women who claim that having him inside them is the best thing in the universe. And we all know that it is also a limitless power source, so why wouldn't you be curious to know what it is like?'
'...' Eve can't deny Pride's arguments; any woman would be curious to know what it's like to be with Lucien that way.
She starts to imagine it herself now. [Best feeling ever, they said...]
Just wondering about touching Lucien's body in a lewd way makes Eve's legs tremble. So she imagines him touching her body lustfully, which makes her most private part gets warmer pretty quickly.
Her face blushes while she gets horny with naughty thoughts about her little brother. That is, at the same time, so good and so frustrating.
Eve ends up feeling guilty as she tries to fill her mind with memories of Lucien's childhood to fight those lustful feelings.
She focuses on a memory of when he was six years old. She sees him in front of her, just a little boy with a face so cute and innocent... but a smells so devilishly seductive…
[Has he always smelled like that???] Eve is confused when she feels Lucien's addictive fragrance so lively.
That smell continues to make her body feel strange, especially her most private parts. Eve tries to fight such feelings while 'little Lucien' gazes at her with that bright and innocent look.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[This is so wrong!!!] Eve exclaims in her own mind and closes her eyes as looking at Lucien is making her feel so dirty.
She tries to focus on all the pure feelings she has for her little brother. [I can't do it... I must not feel it... I'm your...]
"Big Sister?"
Eve can swear she heard little Lucien's image call her Big Sister. But the problem is that he didn't sound like a child but with that devilishly seductive and charming sweet voice.
She opens her eyes again and notices that Lucien is in front of her, smiling at her as he dangerously approaches their faces.
"Luci!!" She realizes she's spent so much time imagining naughty things that she didn't see he's already slipped out from under the group of girls and is now standing in front of her, clearly wanting a hug.
Lucien can feel the lustful feelings inside Eve, which leave him a little confused. Yet, he smiles lovingly at her and hugs her tightly.
"Big Sis..." He kisses her cheek. "I missed you so much."
"Me too, me too..." All the guilt and bad feelings are pushed out of Eve by the heat of Lucien's embrace. In his arms, she feels complete in an incredibly good way. And there, only there, with him, does she feel that she is fully accepted, with all her qualities and flaws.
Lucien also feels especially good when hugging Eve. He loves all his sisters and wives in unique and special ways, but Eve, like Lust, has one of the most important roles in his life.
While the Sin is his 'first wife,' his big sister is also his second mother.
He continues to embrace Eve to his heart content. And simultaneously exchanges looks with Pride, who is behind her.
Lucien and Lust have already agreed that he must obtain a soul contract with all the other Sins to achieve unimaginable power, so that goal is clear in his mind, as his heart is filled with determination.
But how is he going to get the affections of the proudest and most arrogant creature in the universe? Well, getting her affection isn't even the biggest problem, but getting her to admit it.
Also, he feels like he couldn't change anything about Pride as he already thinks she's perfect that way. Even though both of them are very proud and arrogant, that doesn't make them feel repelled but rather makes them feel more and more attracted to each other.
Pride even feels a connection between them. "Lucien..."
"Pride..." He smiles at her, making her imagine them flying away from everyone and kissing above the clouds.
But reality shocks her to the very soul.
Lucien has to use all his will to ignore Pride turning his back to her, intending to tease her, of course.
That simple action is enough to arouse an unstoppable fury in Pride. For her, few things could be worse than being ignored by the person she is most interested in.
Her expression remains arrogant and cold, but inside, Pride is burning with fury, something only Eve and Wrath notice.
