Lonestar88: Of COURSE more lovers will be added. We need to wait for the right time though. Like... right now.
With James' Harem and Krystal's Harem we are going a back and forth. We have done James' Harem's first arc so that is now on hiatus while I sort out Krystal's Harem's first arc. Once Krystal's Harem's first arc is done we will put this on hiatus while I post James' harem's second arc. And this continues until both are finished.
61394: Yes it is, it was wasted on Omniverse.
deverest: It was born BEFORE this and James' Harem started.

Hey guys. here's a new chapter! Hope you all like it!
Krystal's Harem
Chapter 4: A Maiden of Ice and Family Dinner
Krystal was going through town, looking at all of the new deal. She was currently trying to find some new clothes; she figured that wearing the same old thing every day was making her become her dad. She had to giggle at that, covering her mouth 'I can't believe I thought that.' She smiled... Only for her to go quiet as she remembered James 'James...' She thought sadly "You'd know what to do..." She sat down and cried gently. She just continued to act how she always did, carefree and happy, when her brother was in some alternate universe?! She suddenly felt like a bitch 'James...James I'm so sorry...' She hiccoughed
"Hey, are you alright?" A soft female voice asked. Krystal sniffed, wiping her tears away and looked up at the figure. It was a mainly white figure that looked vuagely humanoid wearing blue. She was a milk skinned woman with cream white hair...or at least it LOOKED a different shade of white. She had only the sclera, the whites, of her eyes however they were blue instead of white and around them where black markings, almost like mascara, and no nose. She had C-Cup breasts hidden behind her blue robe clothes which covered her entire body.
"I... Just a bit sad about my brother." Krystal said, quickly whipping away her tears
"Oh I'm sorry. Oh where are my manners? I'm Cerise." Said alien sat down next to Krystal
"Krystal." She nodded, shaking her hand "Krystal Tennyson."
"Charmed." Cerise smiled
"Oh um...y-your hand is a little sticky." Krystal commented
"A problem with my people. Naturally sticky skin." Cerise answered
"Yea... You do look like you are made of milk... Sorry! Don't want to be racist!" Krystal nodded and then flinching
"Oh don't worry. I understand, off-worlders are unused to seeing Lewodans. And we get much worse comments from other species." Cerise answered "But I'm glad you understand others feelings."
"Considering all the different parents and siblings I have then of course I am." Krystal giggled "Have you heard of Ben 10?"
"Hmm...Oh yes, he is the hero who saved the young Prince Tiffin." Cerise answered
"He's my dad." Krystal smiled lightly. She didn't boast about her father much but she was doing this to show this girl her large variety of a family
"Your father is Emperor Tennyson? I'm impressed you're so humble about it." Cerise answered
"Emperor Tennyson?" Krystal asked in confusion
"Yes, it's well known in the Royal community. Due to his actions and marriages his title is that of "Emperor"." Cerise answered
"... Wow..." Krystal blinked
"Hmm, it was a unanimous decision from the Royals of the Galaxy. All royalty knew of it." Cerise answered
"So... What does that make me?" Krystal asked
"Princess still, I imagine." Cerise answered
"Wait...How do you know all this?" Krystal asked
"Oh, I am a handmaiden for Queen Cicely." Cersei answered
"A handmaiden?"
"Someone who does things for the queen or princess." Cerise answered
"Like?"
"Preparing baths, fitting their clothes, helping their days out." Cerise answered
Krystal nodded, noting how the girl looked sad "Why don't you come with me on a day out?" Krystal asked "Us two and a girly shopping spree."
"Are... You sure that is okay?" Cerise asked nervously, looking down at her hands shyly
"Yeah. Of course I'm sure. Come on it'll be fun." Krystal answered with a smile
"I... Okay." Cerise nodded
"Brilliant. Let's go." Krystal smiled, pulling Cerise up and walked off. The ice cream like girl gasped lightly bit let herself be dragged away. As time went on the two enjoyed walking around and being together. Time past, the two laughing and joking
Cerise was just happy being herself instead of a handmaiden and Krystal was ecstatic to meet a new friend...though she couldn't help but feel attracted to her. It may have been all the time she spent around her lovers but this new beauty was catching her eye. Not long after, it was getting time for home. And Krystal couldn't be late even if she was a bit disappointed
"Well... Time to go." Krystal smiled weakly
"Really? Must you? I was having a wonderful time." Cerise answered
"Same." Krystal nodded "But I gotta head home."
"Well then...some other day then?" Cerise asked
"I... Sure. Can I have your number?" Krystal asked
"Oh...My-My number?" Cerise asked
"Yea." Krystal nodded "You know phone number?"
"I err, I do not HAVE a phone number." Cerise answered awkwardly
"Really?!" Krystal gasped
"I was never required to have one." She answered, looking shyly
"... Okay, let's get you a phone." Krystal smiled, dragging her away quickly
"Whoa!" Cerise gasped being pulled away
*time skip*
"My own phone..." Cerise thought happily, tentatively holding her new device; it was brand new and a shiny sky blue
"And it's adapted for your skin so there's no unintended residue." Krystal added
"Thank you!" She smiled, hugging her
"Awe...No problem." Krystal blushed lightly "Well... I really need to go now." Krystal chucked awkwardly
"Oh okay, it was wonderful to make your acquaintance." Cerise answered
"Yea, it's nice to meet a new friend." She smiled
"Yes it is. Until next time. Cerise smiled
Krystal nodded before she ran off, waving behind her 'Don't be late, don't be late!' Krystal thought running through town. She soon arrived home, fiddling with her keys 'Front door...' She thought "Got ya." Soon the door opened and she sighed, walking inside
"And where have you been?" A voice made her stiffen in fear
Krystal turned around slowly, gulping. It was Isis; she was sitting in her chair waiting for Krystal. She was currently in a emerald nightdress with black accents "I... Hi Mamma." She said nervously, laughing weakly
"We've been worried. You're lucky your father and siblings are asleep." Isis spoke
"It's... Only six." Krystal frowned
"Your half an hour late. You were supposed to be here half an hour ago to get ready. We were supposed to have left for our family dinner dive minutes ago." Isis frowned
"I'm sorry Mama Isis. I have a good explanation." Krystal answered
"And that is?" Isis asked, giving her step-daughter the benefit of the doubt and Krystal began to recount the events of the day to her "... Okay, fine. Go on and get changed." Isis sighed before she went upstairs
"Thanks for understanding Mama Isis." Krystal sighed and hugged her. Isis nodded, gently pushing Krystal into her room "Okay, okay, I'm going." Krystal answered
*time skip*
"About time; what happened?" Attea asked seeing Krystal and Isis walk together
"About what?" Isis asked
"Why were you late?" Attea asked
"Just helping a new friend, don't worry Mamma Attea." Krystal smiled proudly
"...you're a good kid. Worrying the heck out of us, but a good kid." She shook her head and then followed it up with a smile
"Thanks." Krystal smiled, walking out of her room washed and changed
Krystal came out in a smart shirt and trousers. Mainly blue with black and a green pocket handkerchief.
"Fancy." Selene chuckled as she came downstairs
"Yeah well...I thought I'd go with a bit of nostalgia. Besides, I'm not one for skirts." Krystal smiled
"We know." Hope laughed
"Now, the reservation is coming up and we've got to get moving." Selene spoke
"Yea, come on everyone." Ben yelled, walking downstairs. Each of the kids and parents came downstairs wearing their best clothes and trying to be on their best behaviour. But it was a little tricky for ML-E since she felt fidgety in her dress.
"You okay sis?" Krystal asked the quarter blooded alien
"Yea. But this dress is stuffy." She pouted
"When you're older you can wear a smart shirt and trousers." Helen answered
"Fine." ML-E pouted, clearly looking upset
"Suck it up ML-E. You'll endure it." Krystal answered
"Yea, Krystal did." Gwen giggled
"Exactly...brr!" Krystal answered and had a flashback to when SHE wore dresses instead of trousers. That had never been fun because of her tomboy side
"Oh, I remember when your big sister was wearing dresses..." Gwen teased
"She did?" Atem asked in shock, the kids finding it almost impossible to imagine
"Oh...Mama Gwen..." Krystal blushed
"Yeah...she would pretend she was a princess from time to time. But she was more "Princess Diana Prince" than "Sleeping Beauty"." Gwen chuckled. Krystal was blushing up a storm, her head in her hands
"You must've been so pretty." Scout chuckled, teasing massively
Krystal groaned, blushing brighter "Can we just go please?!" Krystal squeaked
"Krys Princess." Kitty smiled
"We're all Princesses Kitty." Krystal chuckled gently
"Well enough with trips down memory lane, we need to get moving." Attea spoke 'Qe'll embarrass you in a while.' She thought. Everyone nodded, going to their car/ship outside
"Now please don't upset your siblings in the car. ALL of you." Hope spoke
"Okay." They all called. The trip to the restaurant was a quiet one, all the kids were being on their best behaviour...though Luna accidentally falling to sleep on Scout's shoulder was a bit awkward and funny
"Okay, we're here." Ben spoke
"Someone wake up Ms Sleepy Pup." ML-E spoke
"No." Luna muttered sleepily
"Never mind, she's good." Atem commented. He flicked Luna on the nose making her quickly wake up, sitting up
"I'm up! I'm up! Hmm...My poor nose..." Luna quickly spoke, then rubbed her nose gently from the flick with a small whimper. Selene smiled, picking her up in a hug "Mama..." Luna frowned
"Sorry Luna, didn't mean to flick your nose so hard." Atem apologized
"It's okay." She pouted lightly
"Hey, we've got dinner to look forward to thought." Hope spoke
"Yea!" Luna smiled. The other kids smiled as well, still trying to be on their best behaviour
Krystal chuckled, the family entering the restaurant 'Hasn't changed.' She thought
"Sir and madams. Young ones, welcome back. Your regular tables?" The waiter asked seeing them
"Please Jerry." Ben nodded with a smile
"This way, Tennyson Family." Jerry nodded and lead them to their massive table
"Yay!" The kids cheered, sitting down on the table happily
"My, my. Your children don't change. The soup of the day is Cream of Parsnip." Jerry spoke politely
"Thank you." Ben smiled, laughing
"Just a requirement Sir." Jerry answered handing over the menus for the adults
The children frowned, being passed the kids menus "Don't pout please." Looma spoke to them as she set Skarlet in her own seat
"Fine." The little ones grumbled, REALLY annoyed
"I am sorry about James; he was a nice young lad." Jerry nodded
"It isn't what you've heard Jerry, James has just…. He will be back." Ben said sadly "He'll come back soon, we all know this. And no, it isn't grief."
"I see." Jerry nodded "I shall be back later for your orders." He nodded and left as the family looked over their menus
Not long afterward, the parents and children decided on their meals. Along with several jugs of water and assorted drinks... And then the inevitable problems started "But I want a Pepsi!" ML-E pouted
"You are having water ML-E. You KNOW what sugar does to you." Helen responded sternly
"I've gotten better! I want Pepsi!" ML-E tried to argue, waving her arms around in exaggeration
"...really? Because lay time I remember you having sugar, you ran around the garden so fast you not only caused a small tornado, but you dug a trench." Helen responded. ML-E pouted and puffed out her cheeks cutely
Ben sighed seeing his daughter having the old "I can handle my sugar content" debate with her mother...it was getting embarrassing at this point "ML-E. Not in public." He deadpanned "You can have a fruit drink."
"Hmm...Okay." ML-E answered. Krystal chuckled lightly and had a drink of her own. Luckily ordering dinner was easier... Until the youngest ones started throwing a strop in public
"Hmm..." Skarlet frowned, not eating her greens. Ren laughed as he threw his plate behind him. The plate didn't go that far but still
"No!" Betty said, covering her mouth and turning her head away as Fifi tried to feed her
"Please don't be difficult." Fifi frowned "Come on Fifi, open up. Dinner time. Some nice, tasty broccoli. Open up for the aeroplane."
"NO!" Betty repeated, keeping her mouth shielded
"Sorry Jerry." Ben apologised to the waiter
"Don't worry, Ben...We've had plenty of practice concerning rowdy children. Yours are no different." Jerry understood
Ben nodded, feeling embarrassed but also happy with his family 'People who say being a father is easy don't know what they are talking about.'
"Hmm...Guys can you PLEASE behave?" Krystal asked, getting miffed at her younger siblings. True she would've done the same thing when SHE was younger and not feeding on solar plasma, but still. Alex smiled proudly at her, behaving "Thank you, Alex..." She sighed rubbing her brother's head. Alex laughed, smiling and giving a thumbs up
Kitty yawned, pushing her plate away cutely "Are you full, Kitty?" Gwen asked softly
"Hmm..." Kitty nodded slowly
"Okay." Gwen nodded with a smile, putting Kitty's plastic knife and fork together
"I'm finished now." Atem soon followed, putting his cutlery on his plate and pushed it forwards. His siblings nodded, doing the same
'They are so well behaved. Hopefully the young ones will be the same.' Isis thought
"Excuse me...Just need the little Queen's room." Selene spoke getting up
"Me to!" Luna winched, getting up quickly and grasping her mother's hand "I need the little Princess' Room! Please!"
"Okay, come along." Selene chuckled
"Man, joined at the hip like always." Krystal sighed
"How're things going with you and my sister?" EightEight asked her step-daughter
"Great. We finally managed to celebrate her birthday the other day." Krystal smiled "Would have been done earlier but your family has that hunting tradition on the actual week of so it couldn't be helped."
"I know. But it's good to see you two enjoying time together." EightEight answered taking a drink
"Yea, I do love her." Krystal smiled
"Trust and love are great things for people as well. A trust between family and loved ones." EightEight answered. Krystal nodded in agreement, smiling
"Is everyone finished?" Jerry asked
The table looked at each other and nodded "I think we are. No need for ice cream." Ben informed
"Nothing from Ben and Jerry?" Gwen chuckled at her little joke
"Awww!" Scout pouted at the 'no ice cream' comment
"Well then, I'll give you the bill." Jerry answered
Ben nodded as Jerry began to take the plates away "Daddy...tired..." Betty yawned
"Don't worry, you can sleep soon." Ben smiled, kissing his daughters forehead. Not long after Jerry brought over the bill. Krystal and the mothers were currently outside waiting with the kids next to them or in their arms "Here you go." Ben smiled, putting in his pin
"And...Your receipt." Jerry smiled
"Bye." Ben nodded
"Good evening Mr Tennyson." Jerry nodded
As Ben went outside and went to the car with his family, Krystal remembered what Cerise said, about her dad becoming an emperor. 'Should I mention it?' She thought '...Nah, he probably knows already.' As the family drove back home, the kids were already falling to sleep. Only Krystal remained awake on the ride home
"This was nice." Helen smiled
"We don't do this enough." Isis agreed
"Well, we've got to have SOME days like this. But I like our home cooked meals." Looma answered
"Plus we haven't got unlimited money." Ben reminded
"That is also true." Helen flinched, even though the family WAS wealthy through Isis's, Selene's, Looma's and Attea's family. And even the money from their jobs, they had enough to get by.
They had five times the amount needed to get buy but they also didn't like waiting money or spoiling the kids. If they wanted something they'd save for it or do odd jobs. And that was something Krystal was sort of putting off. Not to be malicious or lazy, but she was busy with school
"Here we are: home." Ben smiled as he pulled up.
"Thanks Dad, this was fun." Krystal smiled, kissing his cheek before she got out of the car and opened the door while her mother's where picking up their children
"Anytime Krystal." He answered "Who's for a last drink before bed?" His wives all nodded in agreement with smiles, Krystal returning to her room
As she entered her room, she got undressed and put on her pyjamas. She didn't want to do too much otherwise she'd be up all night but first she wanted to call her new friend, see how she was. She put in the number and began to call her
Ring, ring. Ring, ring
Krystal smiled, waiting patiently "Hi! Hello?" Cerise's voice spoke on the other side
"Hey Cerise, its Krystal." She smiled
"Oh, Krystal! Good evening. I managed to learn how to unlock my phone at last." Cerise chuckled awkwardly on her side
"... I told told you after we bought it and I showed you how it worked." Krystal said in shock
"I know...But I was...Nervous." She answered
"Nervous? Why?" Krystal asked
"Well...I had made a friend today. And I was unsure of "the friend calling you" rule." She answered
"... Huh?"
"Other handmaidens said that "if you receive a person's number, there is a rule." ...It's just really confusing for me. I'm sorry." Cerise apologised
"What is the rule?"
"Um...If someone gives you their number, you can't call them or you're a wimp/sissy." Cerise answered
"... I don't get that rule." Krystal blinked
"Yeah...me neither...but that's what my former friends used to tell me." She answered
"Former friends?"
"When I left Lewoda, I had to leave my friends. And when I left...They were glad to be rid of me."
"... You know what? If I ever see them I'll kick their asses. How does that sound?" Krystal smiled
"That...That's very nice of you." Cerise smiled
"What're friends for?" Krystal laughed with a smile
"Well...if that is all Krystal? Good night." Cerise answered kindly
"I wanted to check on you is all pal." Krystal shrugged, blushing for some reason
"I appreciate it...I do." Cerise answered
"I... Yea... Night." Krystal rambled, hanging up. 'N-No way...A-Am I...?' She thought, considering herself and Cerise before shaking her head violently to control herself "Hmm..." She whimpered inverting her lips
