Words : 1080 Updated : Oct 7th, 2025

27th December, 2026!Life had settled into a pleasantly routine pace for Wang Xiao over the past two months, as he found himself quite at home in the luxury of the King's Mansion. Meanwhile, the Sylvian royal palace was still under repairs, prompting a complete relocation of its inhabitants to the King's Mansion. In recent days, Josephine and Seraphina had been embroiled in a surprisingly fierce dispute. Seraphina was insistent on her daughter pursuing higher education overseas—a plan Josephine had once championed herself. However, Josephine had since discarded those ambitions and was now vehemently opposing any notion of university enrollment. She felt it was unnecessary, but Seraphina was unyielding, and the tension had left their little girl, Aisha, who was supposed to accompany her to university, deeply distressed. Aisha had tried her best to calm the rising storm, but the atmosphere had only grown more charged when Eveline unexpectedly announced her pregnancy. The news had blindsided Wang Xiao; he had assumed that Eveline would have taken precautions. Yet, it seemed she had other plans, caring little for the consequences. In fact, Eveline was quite purposeful in her actions. Her pregnancy could serve as a strategic diversion, allowing her to escape Wang Xiao's attentions for a few months and redirect his focus elsewhere. Upon learning of both Anran and Eveline's pregnancies and realizing she was out of the loop, Josephine felt even more compelled to stay. Luna maintained her mysterious presence, materializing seemingly out of nowhere to shadow Wang Xiao the moment he emerged from his room. Her ability to appear so unexpectedly continued to surprise him, yet she remained undisturbed by the recent upheavals, as if the past few months had left no imprint on her. Tap... Tap... Now, following his steps closely, she halted beside a door. Wang Xiao entered, disappearing into what was known as the Queen's chambers, leaving Luna outside. Adjusting her suit meticulously, Luna scanned her surroundings. "He is becoming worse every day..." she mused to herself, a smile spreading across her face. Fortunately, the corridor was empty, sparing anyone the disconcerting sight of her grin that seemed almost to enjoy in the chaos. _______ "Hm?" The soft murmur floated through the large room, where morning light filtered through sheer drapes, casting a warm glow on the scene within. Seraphina, sitting atop the plush mattress, was adorned in minimal clothing that left her shoulders bare, showcasing the elegant slope of her collarbones. Her long, flowing silver hair cascaded over her shoulders, shimmering softly in the morning light—a curtain of privacy in her intimate setting. She was absorbed in the meticulous task of painting her toenails, a bottle of rich, deep red polish in her hand. Her solitude was interrupted as Wang Xiao entered. She caught his reflection in the mirror opposite and frowned slightly, her eyes narrowing with a mix of suspicion and curiosity. Her hand paused in its motion, the brush hovering just above her toes. Wang Xiao approached silently, his presence commanding yet familiar. As he came to stand behind her, he reached out, his arms sliding around her waist, pulling her gently against him. He planted soft kisses across her face, his touch feather-light, yet filled with intent. "What are you even doing this early in the morning?" he whispered, his breath warm against her ear. Trapped in the warmth of his embrace, Seraphina's response came back as a half-hearted grumble, muffled against his arm, "An abandoned widow? What else is there for me to do?" "Widow, probably... but... Abandoned?" Wang Xiao couldn't resist pressing his lips against the back of her neck, the warmth of his touch making her quiver. As his hands, which had been wrapped around her waist moments before, carefully moved up to seize her breasts, Seraphina's eyes widened in surprise for a fleeting moment. "!" "Shh... Josephine could walk in any minute to start another fight with me. What if she catches us like this?" Seraphina spoke in a hushed tone, her lips slightly trembling as she glanced hesitantly towards the door, feeling the warmth of Wang Xiao pressing against her back. Wang Xiao now began to tenderly caress her hair, his touch sending a wave of sensation through her. "What's wrong with her seeing you like this? You look... beautiful with your hair down..." Surprised, Seraphina's smile faded, her expression turning bittersweet. "That's not what I meant..." Wang Xiao's lips curved into a slight smile. The confrontations between Josephine and Seraphina had become a regular occurrence, with Seraphina forbidding Josephine from having children or neglecting her studies. Amused by the ongoing feud between mother and daughter, Wang Xiao remained silent. In fact, Josephine was unaware of the intimate relationship he shared with Seraphina.

Wang Xiao whispered softly, his fingers making delicate movements against her abdomen before trailing downward, causing Seraphina's eyes to flutter. A sense of omnious premonition washed over her, but Wang Xiao, pressing her back against him, began to slowly undress her, revealing the little clothing she had on. "Mmm..." As his tongue intruded forcefully into her mouth, Seraphina was engulfed by a intense sensation that clouded her eyes. She weakly clung to him as he sucked on her lips, his eyes penetrating deep into hers. After staring at her for a moment, Wang Xiao couldn't resist the urge to run his fingers gently across her face and whisper, "Why don't you and your daughter serve me together?" His voice, though a whisper, hit Seraphina like a thunderous bomb. "!" Her eyes widened in shock, only serving to make Wang Xiao's smile even more subtle. "I can give you one month to think it over. If you two can't come to a decision, don't blame me for being a brute," he added with a smile before moving downwards and nipping at her nipples. "Ah!" The surprise broke through Seraphina's face, revealing a mix of resignation and apprehension. She knew his interest would eventually turn towards this direction, but faced with his firm ultimatum, she couldn't shake off the heavy sense of foreboding that settled in. Unable to resist, Wang Xiao leaned in and bit her cheeks, finding the gloomy expression on this grumbling woman strangely adorable.
