The excuse worked. Her blush fainted a bit and she started to work again.
After around 4 hours, when her preparations and decorations were all complete.
Knock, knock.
She heard a gentle voice from the other side of the door, "Chloe… Can I enter now?"
Chloe didn't know why but just after hearing his voice, butterflies were rising in her stomach.
She tried hard to control her voice to not express that she was excited, "Come in~!" Though she tried hard to not express her excitement, her quick response gave her away.
Saito internally laughed at her response and decided to not tease her about it. She would perhaps be too embarrassed if he pointed it out.
As he opened the door, Saito was surprised when he saw Chloe's room was clean. The last time he had entered her room, it wasn't too dirty but it also wasn't clean.
He thought in his head 'Looks like she has made a lot of effort in cleaning.'
The next thing which caught his attention was the flowers decorating on the wall. A huge heart shape was made with these beautiful flowers. In between the heart-shaped, she had decorated the flowers in such a way that they formed English words.
"I love you" This was the message portrayed from the Wall of her room. Saito smiled happily, he liked it. He could feel the effort Chloe put into it and her sincerity.
And at last, he stared at her. She was wearing a purple-colored gown. It was a rather light-colored gown so he could easily see through the thin fabric.
Even though Saito had quite a bit of sexual experience with women, he couldn't help but salivate at Chloe's body.
Most importantly, her face was so adorable that no thoughts of hurting her could even emerge in someone's mind.
It made him think 'Should I even do this with her? Does she even love me? Even though I am not Axel… Not her childhood friend…'
Saito wasn't someone who would get cold feet but he truly couldn't help but think this. Nobody liked to hurt someone close to them with their lies.
He noticed Chloe's eyes, it seemed that she was expecting him to come towards her. Affectionately hold her in his arms and be gentle with her first time.
Shaking his head and removing those thoughts from his head. He stepped forward with a thought 'What am I thinking? Didn't I already decide to love her? How can I get cold feet at such a moment…? It's not just me who wants it, she wants it even more.'
As he solidified his thoughts, he moved closer to her and granted her wish. Holding her body in his arms and gently kissing her lips, he felt her moving around. She kissed him on his neck as her arms went around him as well.
She pushed her impressive bust against his chest, letting him enjoy the soft feeling from her breasts.
It was certainly a noisy night for everyone in the house. After the first round where Saito was very gentle with Chloe, he was requested by her to be rough with her.
A small break later, Saito seemed to have let go of all limits and was rough on her. The peculiar thing was, Chloe seemed to be enjoying it greatly.
Even Saito was surprised at her great endurance. It wasn't as much as his own but still, a lot for a human or even a hero.
After 5-6 rounds, they both stopped and slept together naked. Chloe's face seemed like she was in utter bliss. A dream. She was too happy now and felt like she would explode.
~~
Saito woke up early morning. He moved around his body a little and then glanced at the peacefully sleeping naked Chloe.
He shook his head after a light laugh and wore his clothes. It was time to meet up with the Emperor and inform him about his mission. It couldn't be said that he was greatly successful in his mission but he had done his part.
Besides, it would be nice to meet up with Rita. She must have been worried sick about him.
He decided to leave a note behind for Lyra and Chloe so they wouldn't worry too much about him. He thought of letting them know that he would be back by evening.
He flew towards the palace. He decided to enter the palace through the window of Rita's Room. As he entered the room, he was surprised to see that the room was empty.
At that moment, he sensed someone using magic in the Palace. From the magic signature, he was sure it was Rita.
He immediately made his way towards the place where Rita used her magic. He was worried that someone might have come to endanger her life.
However, his worry soon disappeared as he reached the location. He saw Rita standing with a straight with a superior look in her eyes.
She spoke in an ice-cold voice, "What? Was that all? Train harder! You are all so weak. It has been more than a month but you still can't make me use my hands to fight against you! You weaklings!"
The ones targeted by her ruthless lashings were 100's of soldiers lying on the ground. It didn't take long for Saito to understand what had happened.
He had an amused smile on his face before he disappeared.
With a cheeky expression, he covered her eyes and asked her, "Guess who~!?"
"You dare lay your hands on me-?" Rita quickly turns around and was ready to strike whoever it was that dared to touch her.
On her hands, she had even created a Wind Blade which would immediately slash apart the fool.
However, the wind seemed to have disappeared when she realized who it was.
In contrast to the previous superior look in her eyes, her expression went through a couple of changes. The first was a shock, the second was happiness, and then a hint of shyness.
"So, what happened to you all?" He asked to no one in particular, though it was clear his question was directed to the soldiers fallen on the ground.
A soldier near to them, who seemed to be the most recent victim of Rita's bullying started speaking, "I-It all started a month ago… Princess Rita expressed her dissatisfaction with the guards and soldiers here at the palace, so she decided to tor-"
The poor soldier found himself on the receiving end of a piercing glare. He was clear about what would happen if he spoke any further.
Butchered up! That would be the most accurate way to describe his ending.
The soldier had no plans on dying, so he quickly changed his words and continued, "The Princess decided to train us all. However, no one of us can take on Princess' harsh training."
Saito sighed out before he stared at Rita, he gave her a frown and said, "That isn't nice Rita. They can't take on your training. You shouldn't have forced them. Apologise to them."
"Huh…" She then turned to the soldiers in question, "Do you want me to apologise?"
Fuck no! No soldier in his right mind would request for an apology. They would die before even thinking of that.
It was well known that the Emperor clearly favored his eldest daughter much more than his other children. If he came to know that someone requested an apology from Princess Rita, even 1000 deaths wouldn't make up for their blunder.
They all quickly shook their heads.
Rita had a victorious smirk on her face as she innocently turned towards Saito, "They don't want me to apologize."
Saito really wondered just how was she capable of changing so many faces in front of all these people. This skill was something he most definitely didn't possess.
The ultimate art of shamelessness!
(A/N: Just a joke)
They left the area soon enough. He realized that the soldiers were only getting nervous the longer they stayed in that area.
As they were walking in the hallway of the palace, Saito started speaking, "Alright, I will go and inform the Emperor that the mission is completed. Your siblings must have met up with the Crown Prince by now and must be returning back soon."
"Let me come up with you. I was waiting for you to return back so I could have a word with him." Just from her tone, Saito could guess that she was trying to hold back her wrath.
It made him pity the guy who would be the victim of her wrath when it really explodes.
After he shook his head to remove these thoughts, he asked her with a curious expression, "So, you met up with Lyra and Chloe?"
As her thoughts switched onto Saito's two lovers, Rita had an unnoticeable frown mixed with sadness, "Mhm~. I knew had two lovers already but I didn't know they were so beautiful."
"I tried to hate them. I really tried my best to hate them because I want to have you all for myself. But I can't! They are sweet. And… I don't want to hurt you by forcing you to make a choice. After talking with them for some time, I decided to remain in the Palace and not interact with them."
"I see…" Saito replied with a neutral voice.. It was impossible to guess what he was thinking.
The excuse worked. Her blush fainted a bit and she started to work again.
After around 4 hours, when her preparations and decorations were all complete.
Knock, knock.
She heard a gentle voice from the other side of the door, "Chloe… Can I enter now?"
