Pause System: Harem In The Apocalypse-Novel

Laying on a rather uncomfy bed, Gray could be seen sleeping side by side with two beauties. On the left rested Aurora whilst on the right was violet.

Gray had drained out all of his stamina using pause to time the leaps and carry the group from the dome, all the way to the nearest building.

Fortunately, during that time there were no flying zombies or action from the people in the fleets, otherwise things could have gone downhill.

After getting everyone safely to the city, Gray and his group separated with them despite their pleads for him to join and stay with them. Gray just couldn't handle the responsibility.

After hours of searching and movement, they had finally managed to find an underground shelter belonging to an uninhabited mansion near the outside of the city. Gray made sure to clear out all the zombies in the vicinity, and thus had achieved level four.

The underground shelter base had five rooms, it was rather large and spacious. Surprisingly enough it was empty, yet filled with food cans and water bottles.

After running some risky tests, they confirmed it was safe and edible. So now the group was resting to gain back all the energy they had lost during the escape.

Before getting some sleep however, the two girls watched as Gray did his daily training. His push ups, sit ups and pauses. Fortunately there was no need for the run since he had already hit it throughout the day.

Once he was done, he took a shower after the three of them. The moment he finished however, he found Kylo and Lita's mother waiting for him, a worried look could be seen on her face as she suddenly bowed.

"Thank you... Thank you so much for saving my kids... I can't thank you enough." She muttered, tears steaming down her eyes.

'So that's what she wanted to tell me but was holding back.' He thought to himself.

So much had happened that they didn't really have the chance to talk. This also reminded him that he still hadn't had a chance to talk to Aurora. Unfortunately, she was already asleep with violet in the other room.

"No need to thank me, you should thank them when they're awake." Gray replied as he walked. "Please raise your head... I'll feel bad. Instead, be happy that your kids are still alive and that you were able to find them." Gray added whilst patting her head.

She looked up at him, before suddenly hugging him tightly as she burst into tears.

"Lara… My name is Lara…" She mumbled.

"Alright, Lara." Gray replied with a smile.

After a short while, she apologized and went back to her room where her two kids were before continuously casting healing on Kylo. Gray was surprised that she could still cast it after having been doing so for the past hours.

Her ability was definitely promising.

After going to bed, gray closed his eyes before muttering. "I'll find you… I know things are getting harder but please… Please be alive… Sister."

'I recall going to sleep on my own, so why is it that I find myself in this situation?' Gray wondered.

Aurora's long pink hair rested on the pillow, as she slept defensively. Gray found himself being unable to move his eyes away from her lips.

Violet's purple hair rubbed at his chin as her head was so close to his. Her sweet and alluring scent reminded him of lilacs.

Gray's son was slowly expanding in this situation. To calm himself, he tried thinking of old grandmas and cute puppies, but it seemed to be having no effect.

Suddenly, Violet caught his attention, as she called out to him.

"Hey... Gray."

Her soft voice echoed inside of his ears. His heart was pounding. his emotions were out of control, having been paired with his evolution state. He still had a few hours left.

"What...?" Gray asked.

Violet looked up at him, staring him right in the eyes. Her eyes moist as she asked. "Why did you help me? Because of me... You and Aurora..."

"Because at least you tried making up for it." Gray replied with twitching brows.

Seeing his shaken expression, Violet couldn't help but feel as if he was being dishonest. "You don't have to lie..." She muttered.

"N-No... It's not you. It's just...". Gray glanced downwards and she followed his gaze only to be left with a gasp.

She could see a rather large bulge beneath his new clean shorts. A smug smile appeared on her face as she looked up at him with flushed red cheeks before muttering. "Perv."

"It's a normal healthy psychological reaction." Gray replied, rather embarassed.

"Sure... Sure..." She muttered whilst glancing away.

Gray shook his head before closing his eyes in hopes of calming himself down. During that time, Violet moved closer to his ears before muttering. "Want me to help make it go away...?"

Upon hearing this, Gray's eyes opened wide as he suddenly got on top of her, interrupting her as she was about to say "I'm joking-"

Startled and surprised by his sudden movement, she found herself being unable to take her eyes off of his figure. His ripped and lean physique could be seen from under his white T shirt.

His breath brushing against her skin sent ripples throughout her body, but that wasn't all...

The smug smile slowly disappeared from her face before she looked up at him with wavering eyes and said.

"S-Somethings poking me."

Despite saying that, Gray didn't avert his eyes and stared at her with an intense gaze. Causing her to glance away.

"Um... Gray... Are... You in a relationship with Aurora..." She asked.

"Not really..." He replied.

Although they were each other's firsts, they never went further into it. Gray just assumed it was something that happened in the moment and nothing more. Just two people wanting to be and experience love in the middle of hell.

Truthfully, he didn't know what Aurora thought of it, but in the moment the thought escaped his mind. All he could think about was Violet ahead of him.

Violet too couldn't think of anything but Gray. Her heart was pounding, her breathing became more erratic.

To her surprise however, Gray got off of her, before making his way towards the entrance.

"I'm not myself right now… Let's stop here before I lose control…" He said.

Violet could only watch as his figure faded off into the dark. After he was gone, she placed the pillow on her face before quickly rolling around.

'What have I done…?!' She shouted inwardly.

Gray washed his face before muttering. "Back then.. Did I really stop because I was worried about losing control? Or was it because Aurora popped into my mind... Argh... We still haven't even talked properly... Socialising is tiring...."
