Hello mah dudes!
I told you guys that it would be quick update... but I got too caught up with Al and his partner for this story lol
I want to give our boy some hot smut as well because he is a Bro and he deserves it.
With that in mind, Knowing his age, the choices were quite limited lol
I did not want Al to get paired up with half his age lol
However, since this is Re:Zero, and Shinichirou Otsuka is a God Waifu creator, I found a character that I figured would be nice for him...
Hope you like it!
Next Chapter is smut for Elsa (then) The chapter after that would be Al and (X)
In Ao3 The heroine for Al is spoiled so... this is for the FF readers.
Moving past the very dubious renovations of their house, Subaru and Elsa finally continued to make their way into the village.
After the departure of the Ground dragon carts and carriages, the peaceful and relaxing air of the village they knew had finally returned.
Walking on the sidewalks, the couple and Meili were greeted by many of the villagers, just as they were now opening up for business.
Looking around the village, Subaru and Elsa could say that they made the right call to wake up and get out early.
Although the village they lived in was small, in recent years, it has become one of the most well-known places in Kararagi for innovation and creativity.
While many established businesses in Kararagi by the Hoshin group have proper grand venues in various cities, all of the original first branches of these businesses still remained in this small village.
Being seen as the trial grounds for new business endeavors of the Hoshin group, many investors, businessmen and businesswomen alike visit the small village in the hopes of seeing what is next for the Hoshin group.
On the other hand, while it is a trial grounds for business, it is also a trial grounds for new Kararagian architecture. Spearheaded by Anastasia's head of construction, the village contained many of the renowned architect's original designs and inspirations for his many historical landmarks, making it a huge attraction for the tourists as well.
While the shops and stalls were already being littered with people falling in line, the couple still knew that the amount of people lining up today is still a far cry number compared to the people lining up in the afternoon, where businesses are in full swing.
Making sure that they would let their daughter enjoy all of the places she wanted to visit in the village, the couple knew that they had to move fast before the hustle and bustle of the streets finally catches up to them.
Finally arriving at "Freddy Fazbear's Pizza", Meili immediately ran towards the statue of the restaurant mascot, Freddy. Hugging the Bear statue, Meili exclaimed, "Mommy! Daddy! Hurry!"
"We're coming, sweetie!" Elsa answered back as she and Subaru then chuckled at their daughter's energy.
Arriving at the entrance, the couple and Meili were immediately approached by the restaurant's front of the house.
"Sir. Subaru and Lady Elsa, Please right this way" The woman said as she gestured the little family to follow the waiter to their reserved table.
Going into the restaurant, Meili's expression lit up as she finally saw many kids playing on the newly built playground. However, what's even more, Meili finally got to see the newly built animatronics of Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy on the stage at the center of the restaurant.
Going to their table by the window, the trio had the perfect center view for the animatronics on stage. After sitting in the red half circle sectional sofa, Subaru was quick to point out to Meili that she also has the center front seat near the Freddy Fazbear band later when they would finally do their morning show.
"Mommy, Daddy, You both are the best!"
Hearing this, Subaru who sat at the center, gently wrapped his left arm around Elsa and answered, "Of Course, sweetie. We'd do anything for you", which made Elsa smile and nod agreeingly.
"Now, Why don't we order that Special Freddy pizza that you always wanted!" Subaru exclaimed, which made the little Meili playfully bounce on her seat.
After ordering their food, Subaru and Elsa let Meili play with the other kids in the playground as they waited for their orders.
Watching their little daughter play in delight in the ball pit, Subaru and Elsa couldn't help but feel so thankful at this moment in their lives. Not only because of their daughter but also because they are now in this moment of their lives with the one's they loved the most.
Making small talk to pass the time, Subaru and Elsa discussed on what they will do moving forward with their mercenary work and Meili's education.
"Why don't you and I take a break for a while… Maybe a month or two… Traveling around the world with you is the best but… I would rather do it without the mabeasts and conflict really, *chuckle* "
"*chuckle* Well, you do have a point… We haven't really had a proper date in a long while."
"Right, right! Plus, Meili will be finally attending school tomorrow so… We finally have time with just us, you know… I really want to court you like I should have courted you a long time ago" Subaru answered as he gently stroke the waist of Elsa as he looked down onto beautiful woman nesting her head inside the crook of his neck.
"Hmmm~ But I think you courted me just fine when we were young" Elsa replied as she looked back up to him questioningly.
"Of course, that is with Meili in mind… Now that we are alone… I think I can be more adventurous with my dates now, don't you think?"
Blushing at his response, Elsa answered back, "Oh, is that so? *chuckle* Well then, I hope you do understand that you may not just be receiving a simple kiss at the end of our dates now… now that we are husband and wife, right?"
Hearing her sly statement at the end, Subaru smiled as he answered back with a tease, "Well, that is what I am counting on", making Elsa blush and chuckle into his chest.
"You are such an idiot, Subaru."
"Is that a Yes?"
Shaking his wife for an answer, Elsa eventually gave the answer he was looking for, "Yes"
As Subaru was shaking his wife in joy, Elsa added, "Those dates better be great!"
Shaking his head from her answer, Subaru replied with confidence, "Have you forgotten who you are talking to!? I am the great Vollachian Strategist", making Elsa smile and chuckle.
Not soon after they finished their conversation, their orders had finally arrived.
Calling Meili out of the playground, the family now then said their prayers for the food they were about to receive.
Finishing their prayers, Subaru, Elsa, and Meili finally dove right into their food. Other than the Special Freddy Pizza, the trio ate their respective individual orders. For Meili it was a huge portion Mac 'n Cheese while it was Spaghetti for Subaru and Elsa.
Halfway into their dining, Subaru signaled the manager of the restaurant to finally call out the surprise he planned for Meili.
Enjoying her pizza as she hummed along with the music being played, Meili believed that her day in Freddy Fazbear's couldn't get any better even if she wanted to. However, unbeknownst to her, her Father was truly making the effort of surpassing her expectations.
Hearing the other children call out the names of the characters of Freddy Fazbear's band in excitement, Meili was curious at what was causing that uproar.
However, not soon after that, she immediately found the answer.
With a head popping out at the side of Meili, Meili went wide eyed and couldn't believe what she was seeing.
"Freddy!"
"That's right! It's me Freddy Fazbear!" The man in the Bear suit said as he gave a short dance to introduce himself.
"Mommy! Daddy! It's Freddy!" Meili pointed out as she continued to bounce on her seat, much to the delight of her parents.
"Wait a minute, Don't forget about me! Freddy is nothing without me and my guitar!" A man in a bunny suit said as he went beside Freddy and puffed up his chest.
"Bonnie!"
Shouting the character's name in delight, it wasn't too long before Meili got to see the entire Freddy Fazbear band!
Telling her that her Mother and Father personally asked them to come because it was someone's special birthday, Meili immediately exclaimed with excitement and cheer, "It's me! It's me! It's my birthday today!"
Hearing her answer, The Freddy Fazbear band asked the little Meili her name.
Answering with her name, Freddy immediately answered, "Well, Meili, since it is your special day! Allow me and the gang to sing you a Happy Birthday!"
With Bonnie strumming the guitar, and Freddy and Chica handling the vocals, Foxy was the one who gave the little Birthday girl a small little cupcake with a candle.
Finishing their song as the Birthday girl finally blew out her candle, Subaru, Elsa, as well as the Freddy Fazbear band gave one last energetic cheer for the little girl.
Feeling a light tear build up in her eyes, Meili gave Subaru and Elsa a tight, loving hug…
"Thank you so much. Mommy, Daddy, I love you." Meili muttered, as she truly felt blessed to have such wonderful loving parents.
"We love you too, sweetie" Subaru and Elsa said in unison as they returned the embrace of their daughter.
Separating from their embrace, Meili then gave an embrace to each member of the Freddy Fazbear band before they finally took off to do a "concert" back in their world.
Giving them a final wave goodbye, Meili finally went back to continue eating her food as she raved about how cool Freddy and the gang were to her parents.
Finishing their food, it was just in time for the morning show of the animatronics.
Letting Meili make her way to her seat near the stage, Subaru and Elsa simply watched at the back looking on to their little daughter.
As the show finally started, the animatronics began to move as they sang their greatest hits along with the children…
Although the performance was for children, the parents weren't entirely left out because with each song, the animatronics would have a short gag of jokes, and within those jokes are insinuations only the adults could truly understand.
… … …
After almost an entire hour of singing and dancing, with one final cheer and applause from the children and adults, the show finally ended.
Checking out after the show, the trio then made their way to "Hugs n Cuddles", the home of adorable stuffed toys.
Seeing her other girl friends on the Play Corner of Hugs n Cuddles, Meili ended up playing with them with the free to use stuffed toys on that corner…
After getting her fill while also having her parents finally call out to her after an hour of playing, Meili finally parted from her friends. However before she goes, her friends reassured her that they would be coming later to her house tonight to celebrate her Birthday.
"See you later, Meili!"
"Make sure you have your best character tonight!"
"Mhm! I will!" Meili responded with a huge grin on her face as she was very excited to reunite with her friends later this evening.
After letting her play with her friends at the play corner, the couple then let Meili get her pick from the store.
After much pondering and circling around, the little blue-haired girl eventually settled on a little pink pig, which gave a light chuckle to Subaru as he remembered in his previous life that Meili also had a pig… although, it was a Warpig to be exact, much bigger, and much more dangerous than what she has right now.
Reminiscing of this thought, Subaru thought, "I guess no matter what world I live in, the universe always finds its to make a parallel for ourselves"
And this was very true, just as his next planned gift is a representation of that…
Asking her where she wanted to go next, the little Meili answered with much enthusiasm, the answer of pretty much where every kid wanted to go, and that was… "Game Tower! I want to go to Game Tower!"
With that, Subaru, Elsa, and Meili, then made their way to "Game Tower", which was Subaru's reimagination of an Arcade back from his home world.
A venue with various games, Game Tower has become the usual hotspot for any city in Kararagi, and this was not any different with the branch here in the village…
Arriving at the entrance, Meili already found herself disheartened at the fact that there was a huge line outside… Seeing the huge line of children and adults alike waiting for their turn to get into Game Tower, Meili knew that her chances of getting in were slim.
Seeing Meili's disheartened expression, Subaru reassured her that she would be able to get into Game Tower without any problem, which made Meili light up in excitement on how her Father would be able to let them in.
Moving to the side of the building, there was another entrance for employees. With the two guards immediately recognizing Subaru and his family, the two guards immediately asked on how they could be of assistance.
"I will just be letting my daughter have some fun for a while in the game room. It is her Birthday after all" Subaru responded with a wink, to which the guards immediately understood as they gave way to the Natsuki family.
After going through a few flights of stairs, Subaru finally opened the door to the game room where all of their prototype games are created.
Partnering with Anastasia in business was… no, is one of the best things that could have ever happened in his brand new restart. Through Anastasia, Subaru was able to bring his ideas of Modern Japan to this world with great success while also making a great penny for himself in the process…
To be honest, Subaru and Elsa could have just lived up a cozy life in peace but their job of mercenary work was just a passion that they couldn't let go just as they enjoyed helping other people in difficult situations.
With this in mind, being a business partner really does have its perks, which he would gladly use for his family anytime…
Pulling out the mana stone at the side that will power up the games, Subaru gave the same mana stone to Meili and told her to enjoy every game she desires…
Jumping in excitement as she received the stone, Meili hopped from one game to another, making sure that she would be playing every single last game in Game Tower…
Accompanied by her parents, Meili enjoyed a variety of games much to her enjoyment. Upon reaching the last game, Meili noticed a table covered with a red cloth.
"Daddy, What is that?"
"Oh, that is a working prototype game that Game Tower would be releasing in the coming months."
Hearing this, Meili immediately tugged and pleaded to her Father to let her play the new game, much to the laughter of Subaru who just enjoys her daughter's adorable reaction.
"Fine, Fine"
Taking off the red cloth, Subaru revealed an air hockey table.
Grabbing onto the puck, Subaru then turned on the machine with the mana stone. Activating the machine, it powered the air stones within the machine to produce a light breeze of air on the surface of the table. Placing the puck, Subaru demonstrated to Meili and Elsa how to play Air hockey…
Finishing his demonstration it was not too long before the entire family would now be playing Air hockey…
With each clink and clank of the puck on the sides of the table, it would be accompanied by the cheers and laughter of the family playing the said game…
Safe to say that the new game to be released by the Hoshin Group would be a great hit since the trio were left with smiles and laughter after finishing multiple games.
"Ahahahaha! Daddy, Air hockey is awesome!"
"I'm glad that you liked it, sweetie *chuckle*"
"Well, since you now don't know where to go. I guess it is time to give you our next present" Subaru finished as he patted the head of his rather curious and excited daughter.
Finally exiting Game Tower, The trio weaved their way through the peak midafternoon hustle and bustle of the streets.
Carrying Meili on his shoulders and with his wife in hand, Subaru finally reached location of Meili's next present, "Tomo's Pet store"
Walking into the shop, Meili grew more excited as she saw numerous kids and adults playing with the cats and dogs in the corner.
"I'm finally going to have a dog!?"
Nodding at her daughter's statement, Elsa answered, "Well, You have been a very good girl after all~ However, you must promise us that you will take care of this dog", as she wagged her finger at her daughter.
"I promise!"
After speaking to the female owner, Tomo, they were then immediately led to the backroom of the shop that was housing Meili's Birthday present.
Opening the door, and after placing Meili down, Meili finally came face to face with the little black puppy, wagging its tail in front of her.
Petting its fur, Meili felt a familiar presence from the dog… as if she had already met the dog once before in her life…
Feeling her Divine Protection reacting to the dog, Meili looked back at her parents in surprise at what they gave her.
"This dog is perfect for you. Not only will you be able to perfectly train him, but you would also be able to understand him through your connection with him with your Divine Protection" Subaru said as he gave a light smile at the pair.
Reminiscing back to the time that he found her on that cave, Subaru couldn't believe that the Wolgarm that wrapped itself around Meili at that time would also be the "Shaman" dog that she would eventually come to own.
Hugging the little dog, the little dog playfully licked Meili's cheek as it sought more of Meili's attention.
"Aww~ Ahahahaha, Who's a good doggie?" Meili said as the dog barked with eagerness and affection.
"I will call you~ Shadow!" Meili said as she lifted the puppy, "Since you are as dark as the shadow!"
Jumping on top of her, Shadow wagged its tail and licked Meili in delight.
"You will be my partner Shadow like what Daddy is to Mommy" Meili added, which bought an endearing smile from the two lovers as they looked back at each other.
Thanking her Mother and Father, Meili gave her parents one tight embrace for everything they had done this day. "This is really the best birthday ever!"
Seeing the sun finally setting, Subaru and Elsa knew that they were now in the last phase of their plans for Meili's Birthday.
"What are you talking about, sweetie!? Do you think your Dad will end your Birthday with this present? Me and your Mother have a final Birthday present for you back at the house!" Subaru exclaimed which bought an even more excited cheer from Meili.
Giving one brief nod to each other, Subaru and Elsa knew that it was now time to depart from the village and finally go back home to give Meili her final surprise present.
After making their way through the village, Subaru, Elsa, Meili, and Shadow now walked on the paved road back to their home.
Just as they were making their way back home,they encountered many of their would-be guests for Meili's Birthday evening celebration.
Giving Meili her Birthday greetings, the children of the other parents went alongside to join Meili and Shadow.
Separated from their children, Subaru and Elsa talked with the other parents.
Giving what they have heard from the other villagers that came by the Natsuki Residence, Subaru and Elsa could only gulp at what they were hearing…
Stating to them the number of floors… as well as describing the house exterior… Apparently they now had a swimming pool… a hot spring bath… a garden… a gazebo… among many other stuff that the other parents recounted…
"Honey, That doesn't sound… like our house" Elsa said as she gave a nervous laugh.
"Sound like our house… That isn't our house!" Subaru voiced out as he now became nervous as well on what Anastasia had done.
Hearing the screams of the children filled with awe and excitement, the parents knew they were finally nearby.
"Whoa!~ Meili, What happened to your house!?"
"This is so~ cool!~"
"Whoaa!~~ Best Birthday ever!" Meili screamed as she was then greeted by the Pearlbaton triplets, Anastasia, Ricardo, Al, and rest of the villagers a Happy Birthday.
Summoning a butler with a snap of her fingers, Anastasia then instructed the butler to guide the children to their playroom so that they could play.
Guiding the children into the "house" the children were full of Oohs and Aahs as they continued to make their way further and further…
Finally arriving at the front of their Residence, Subaru and Elsa had their mouths drop to the floor at what they were seeing… the same could be said with the other parents they were with, since the house they were used to seeing was now replaced with… an Elegant Kararagian Resort House.
"Hey Bro! Elsa! Nice meeting you again. I have got to say that I really love what you've done with the place! Ahahahahaha!" Al said as he gave a light sip in his wine glass.
Seeing Subaru and Elsa in a completely perplexed state, Anastasia knew that they needed a bit more time to take it all in. With Al now actually conversing with the young couple, Anastasia figured that she would go talk to them at a later time.
Walking alongside Ricardo, Anastasia welcomed the other guests and led them to the party venue at the back of the house…
"Well, I must say~ You look very dashing tonight. In fact, this is the first time in a long while that you took your helmet off" Elsa said as she looked back at the man in a very formal black and white tuxedo.
"Well about that~ Ahahahaha" Al laughed as he scratched his chin.
Basing it on Al's reaction, Subaru immediately figured out the reason behind Al's rather unusual actions, "You have a date tonight, don't you?"
Smiling back at Subaru's answer, Al replied, "Well, I wouldn't like to brag… but Yes, I do have a date" which made the couple light up and congratulate the Gladiator.
"Of Course, I wouldn't like to be left behind by my younger Brother now, do I!" Al said as he wrapped his right arm over Subaru's shoulders.
"Also, I think I need a bit of advice from you Bro about dates… since you know… you already got a wife in Elsa… and my dates aren't exactly very romantic, if you know what I mean" Al whispered as he scratched the side of his head.
"Well, I at least should know what kind of person she is, Al."
"Well, Bro, She is a bit younger than me… but she is probably the most mature person I know… Reliable… Dependable… Fierce…" Al said to which Subaru and Elsa smiled as they saw how much admiration and adoration they could hear from Al's words.
"Plus, she got that "Scorching" hot body… Oh, Dear, Lord… I bet she could give your wife a run for her money" Al said which got an uneasy laugh and shake of the head from Elsa.
"Al… My wife is right there" Subaru pointed out to which Al immediately apologized.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry"
"Well, You really are still the same old Al" Elsa said, making Al chuckle and scratch the side of his head.
Hearing these words, "the same old Al" Subaru was connecting the dots on who would be Al's mystery partner.
Seeing that what he was experiencing so far had unique parallels in his previous life, Subaru figured that it would be the same for Al.
Looking back, Subaru could only remember one person Al had an undying loyalty to, and that was Priscilla Barielle… Remembering him die for her until the end and even telling him that his very first kiss was with Priscilla, Subaru could only gulp at the answer… Stating that the person was younger than him, Subaru looked back at Al with a shake of his head…
"Hey! Why are you looking at me as if I committed a crime!?" Al said as he saw Subaru's dubious expression.
"How much younger are we talking about here?"
"Ummm… I don't know… just a few years" Al answered
"Are you sure that it isn't half your age?"
Letting go of Subaru, Al retorted, "Oh, Hell No! I am not a pedophile, Bro! What the hell are you thinking!?"
"Just checking, just checking" Subaru said to which Al answered back, seeing that he finally saw his date coming from the side, "Fine, Turn to your left and tell me that she is not a woman"
Turning to the left, Subaru saw a tall woman with auburn hair. Donning a noble Vollachian attire, she strutted with an air of coolness and confidence, making many of the male bachelors in the party turn their heads.
Although the scar somewhat marred her beautiful face, it still did not take away the beauty that she still possessed.
Looking down to her body, Subaru couldn't say outright that Al was bang on the money with his description, since his wife would probably kill him… But, inside, Subaru knew that Al was definitely bang on with his description… With each strut she made, her bountiful breasts gave a light jiggle as her hour glass figure hips swayed tantalizingly for all the men to see.
Seeing the reaction of Subaru, Al couldn't help but nod to his brother as he was super proud that he was able to get a woman like her in his life.
Looking back at Al's smug reaction, Subaru knew that he couldn't argue back… Taking a breath and closing his eyes Subaru nodded with great approval of Al's partner.
"She is definitely a woman" Subaru said with emphasis, which made Al bask in the envy of every other man in the party eyeing his partner.
Hearing a cough right beside him, Subaru immediately winced at the fact knowing it was not an ordinary cough.
Hearing the tap of his wife's shoes beside him as well as feeling a very tense air at her side, Subaru knew that he was not able to properly conceal his delight in checking out Al's date.
Looking back at Elsa's side, Subaru mouthed to Elsa that he loves her, to which she pouted in response.
Knowing Elsa, Subaru knew that he had to make up to her later.
"Al, You did not tell me that it would be such a formal event. I would have worn an evening gown if-" The auburn-haired woman said as she looked back at her partner so formally dressed than what she was used to seeing.
"Oh no, no, no, Serena, This is just me trying out something new for a change" Al answered back with a laugh, which bought a gentle smile from his partner.
"Oh Yes, this is Serena. And Serena, this is Subaru and Elsa Natsuki" Al added, making the parties get acquainted with each other.
"Oh my, It is such an honor to meet the famed duo of Kararagi in the flesh" Serena said as she gave a light bow to the couple.
"Oh, please don't be like that… You are our guest for today. No need to be so formal" Subaru replied.
"Oh right, my apologies. I may have just confused myself about the event because of my partner over here" Serena answered back, teasing Al of his outfit for being so formal.
Chuckling back at the duo's back and forth, Subaru and Elsa then finally asked how they both met and how they both started dating…
Looking back at each other with a smile, the two partners recounted their first encounter…
Still living off with the memories of her last visit to another country which resulted into an assassination attempt on her life, Serena, at that time, sought protection whenever she travels out of the country. Having already experienced an assortment of hired mercenaries in her travels, Serena knew that brawns wouldn't be the only aspect one should take of note when hiring a mercenary in her future travels, but also how knowledgeable that mercenary is in the customs of other countries.
Seeing Al's resume, Serena instantly knew that she had found the perfect candidate. At first, she was quite dubious at her hiring of Al since he did not make such a good first impression on their first meeting… However, amidst their travels, Al had not only met her expectations but also exceeded them. Not only was he able to properly speak in behalf of her camp to the indigenous tribes of the other countries but he would also pacify numerous possible conflicts within and out of the camp. Even if he did have this attitude of pacifying possible conflict, when things got down, Serena saw that the moniker "Gladiator" was not simply for show. Able to block and dodge every move thrown at him with precision while at the same time deliver brutal and calculated strikes, Serena was truly enamored by the display of the hired mercenary.
With many of her visits to other countries having been a huge success, which can mostly be attributed to Al's advice and strength, Serena negotiated with Al to extend his contract.
Making him her personal bodyguard, Al would always be within reach for her almost every day. It was truly inevitable that in their travels, the two would get to know more about each other. With Al's easygoing and lax attitude, it was not very difficult for Serena to open herself up more to him. In fact, this was one of the reasons why she fell for him among many things since she could feel all the tension and stress she built for herself disappear.
Little by little they got know more about each other and little by little they could feel a certain connection to each other growing… However, that all changed when Serena finally finished all of her travels which meant that Al's contract was finally finished.
Back at Serena's domain, Serena hosted a banquet at her estate to celebrate the success of the treaties, agreements, and alliances formed in the past months. Talking to Al, Serena actually expected Al to ask for a renewal of contract. However, To Al's point of view, he expected Serena to offer him a renewal for his this misunderstanding, neither were able to properly take the initiative and express what they felt about that moment.
After that point of reminiscing, Serena grabbed a hold of Al's hand as she started to wince at remembering the very awful memory…
Right after the party, Before Serena and Al had to say their goodbyes and part ways, both had the desire to change back to their original wardrobes in their respective rooms, which were right next to each other.
With Serena's room guarded by two more newly hired guards and knowing that Al was just in the next room, Serena felt very secure at that moment. Securing her usual evening tea from her maid, she thought nothing of the ordinary… However, after taking a whole cup of her tea… She immediately felt something was wrong…
With her head spinning and her breathing becoming more and more sporadic, Serena would eventually succumb and fall into a half-conscious state… Hearing her fall down to the floor, the two "supposed" guards entered her room with a look that would haunt her for many weeks if were not for Al…
The look they gave was a look of lust… a sick demented look that saw her as nothing more than a disposable piece of flesh… In that room, she heard all the vulgar actions they planned to do to her… Even if she wanted to burn them all to hell, her body remained as helpless like a newborn infant… Kicking her, cursing her, and laughing at her pathetic state. Helplessness would eventually overtake her anger and her Pride…
All she wanted to do was scream and call out to the only man that she knew that could save her… Summoning all of her willpower, she did just that… However, what she was only able to do was muster a weak slam on the floor and a non-sensical moan that could only be produced by a child…
They were laughing at her attempts… They knew how futile it was… And they knew how defenseless she was…
Looking back at her, they were so tempted to take the very ripe maiden for themselves. However, they knew that there was a proper order to doing things… Their leader has to be the first to defile her before they could go to town on her body…
However, even with this, the duo knew that they could get away even just a little…
Carrying Serena to the bed, the two men cupped and circled her breasts with glee… Licking her face and neck, Serena truly felt disdain and disgust to the men that was violating her body… Seeing Serena weakly flail to stop them only fueled their lust even more…
Now putting their mouths on each of her breast, the two lustful men could only groan in disappointment as they did not have the privilege to strip her down… Biting down onto her breasts so that they could mark down where they would start after their Boss finally defiled her, Serena was left into tears as she tried to call Al for help.
Hearing the heavy footsteps outside, the two guards immediately stopped their advances and smiled in anticipation…
Entering Serena's room was a middle-aged man with a lean physique, with silver hair and red eyes… Calling his name, Serena remembered the man's name clearly, "Ardor".
Pushing his men aside, Ardor immediately went to smell Serena's entire body… Running his hands on her body from head to toe, Serena felt her heart was about to burst…
Saying to her that she was lucky to be chosen by him… He told her that she would feel the pinnacle of pleasure through his hands before her inevitable death…
Feeling and seeing him unbutton her shirt… unzip her pants… stripping her all the way down to her underwear… Serena was shaking uncontrollably, and her breathing got even more wilder… Begging him to stop, the moans only energized the lustful monster…
Giving her abdomen a good long lick, he told her to relax and succumb to his touch… Just as Ardor was about to slip down Serena's panties, Serena mustered all her strength to say the name of one man to save her once more, "Al"
Busting through the door, Al immediately grabbed a hold of Serena's sword and skewered the two guards onto the wall while blocking their knives with his Blue Dragon Sword. Kicking Ardor on the face to the wall, Al immediately put his Blue Dragon Sword at the backhand and tore through the three upper torsos of the men.
Like a mad beast, Al dropped the swords and by brute strength held the two upper torsos of guards and slammed them with anger. With the upper torso of Ardor on his feet, Al stomped on the face of the mastermind multiple times before finally leaving it nothing but blood and mush.
After Al's rageful wrath, Serena could remember the pain in Al's eyes as he looked back at her… In her eyes, she saw him look at her as if he had failed her… Picking her up, Al immediately took her out somewhere far in the forest of the domain…
After reaching to a stop, Al slumped back down onto the tree embracing her as he cried and apologized… "I'm so sorry that I failed you"…
As Serena recounted this moment with a smile since her Hero saved her… The lips of Al quivered as he tried force a smile at the memory…
Stating to her that he would always be there to protect her… Al reassured Serena that she could rest and entrust everything to him from now on… After a long time of crying in his chest, Serena finally found the peace and safety she always needed… and that was in his strong loving arms…
As soon as Serena finally recovered from the drug they used on her, Al gave Serena his coat to cover her, as they finally went back to the mansion…
Upon returning to the mansion, Al explained to Serena why he fled with her into the forest… Having fought the two maids in his room, he learned that the people that got into her home were no ordinary people… they were referred to as "Curse Dolls"… Although normally the person would lose their sense of self under the curse, the people that invaded her could somehow retain their sense of self under the temporary immortality…
With that said, when they finally came to their rooms, all the people killed by Al disappeared without a trace…
Setting back order into the Dracroy estate, few days after the incident, Serena would always be seen with Al by her side… Promising that he would protect her up until she could finally go back to the woman that she was, Al remained by Serena's side for several weeks of her recovery from the traumatic experience…
After such time, Serena finally took the initiative to renew Al's contract with her by being her personal bodyguard… However, to her surprise, Al declined… to which he countered with a promise that he would always protect her no matter when and where until his last breath…
Driven with so much emotion, Serena embraced Al for his promise… From that moment on, the relationship hindered by contract was no more…
And in the past few months, even though they had to plan for their dates, the amount of time they spent just being with each other was more than enough to break many walls in their relationship, making their relationship more and more intimate… Although, they haven't done the deed just yet much like Subaru and Elsa…
With that being said, Serena coughed to stop Al from continuing with his story as she felt that it was getting a bit too personal to her liking.
"But, I was getting to the good part!" Al joked to which Serena gave a light elbow to his gut.
"Ow, ow, Okay, I'm sorry" Al responded which made Subaru and Elsa laugh back at the couple.
After getting to know more about the relationship of the two, Subaru and Elsa genuinely wished them to find love like they have in their lives. Also, seeing Al in a brand-new light, the couple couldn't help but tease and praise him for how far he had gone from his time in Ginunhive…
After a short while, Anastasia finally came back to greet the parents of the Birthday girl.
"Hey y'all I hope the newly renovated house is to your liking"
Breaking out of the conversation, Subaru and Elsa could only shake their heads back at the devious Merchant Princess.
Seeing that they had no choice anyway… Plus, they do admit that this was an amazing improvement for their last home… Subaru and Elsa thanked Anastasia for everything she had given them.
"Now then, Why don't I give you a tour to your brand-new home!" Anastasia exclaimed as she gestured to come follow her into the house.
Asking Serena and Al to come join them as well, the two otherworlders along with their partners came to join the house tour ofthe new Natsuki residence.
Walking by pair, the men, Subaru and Al, talked about date advice while the women, Elsa and Serena, talked about how they were about to take their intimacy with their partner to the next level.
Going into the house, Subaru and Elsa were very delighted with the new interior and furniture of their living room. Filled with wood with a lacquer finish as well as stone, detailed with their own respective traditional Kararagian engravings, the entire ground floor truly looked like an elegant traditional Kararagian home.
Setting up a Bar counter at the side, numerous butlers were serving their Adult patrons their drinks.
After finishing their tour on the kitchen and dining room, Anastasia then led them to the second floor where it contained multiple rooms, in the likes of the playroom where Meili and the others were playing at the moment, the library, a sewing room especially made for Elsa, as well as a small office for Subaru where he could do all his supplemental work with the Hoshin group at home, and many more…
Finally reaching to the top floor of the house, there were two distinct paths after reaching the top of the staircase. On the left was Meili's room, where after inspection, Subaru and Elsa knew that it was the perfect room for their little daughter… With a huge space as well as a mini doghouse to boot for her pet, Anastasia really outdid herself in making it a room truly for Meili… On the other hand, on right-hand side of the floor was the room of the couple themselves… With Elsa and Serena putting their hands on their mouths with awe while Subaru and Al were simply shaking their head in disbelief… The room was truly for Royalty… From the King-sized bed with curtains, a balcony with the best view of the stars, an entire floor carpeted in perfect red velvet, a chandelier, and many other furniture and fixtures built by the most well renowned master craftsmen….
Finishing the tour of the couple's bedroom, Anastasia now knew it was time for the kids to head out back and finally continue with their planned program.
Calling the children from the Second floor to come with them to the garden at the back of the house, Anastasia led all the children as well as the two couples to the actual venue of the party.
Upon reaching the Garden, Dinner tables and chairs, with light stones at the center, spread throughout the entire greenery of the garden. And amidst the greenery was a stone path that swerved to a center pond filled with Koi fish.
With lanterns hanging atop of the garden, for this occasion, the venue truly looked like a very festive venue. Entrapped within the newly built walls, the venue was truly safe from any outside interference.
Signaling the catering to now serve their guests, a platoon of butlers came out with their respective trays and cloche, ready to serve their guests.
Separating the children on one side while the adults are on the other, Anastasia made sure that the children would be entertained by the many entertainment booths set up for the children like the puppeteering booth while they are eating.
With Elsa and Serena having a great conversation about each other's exploits as well their own gripes and likes in their respective relationship, Elsa asked Subaru if she could have a bit more time conversing with Serena for the evening.
"Not a problem at all, You ladies have fun" Subaru said to which Al simply nodded with a smile.
"I won't be gone too long, okay, Al" Serena cooed with a light kiss on his cheek, making Al tense up.
Seeing the reaction, Serena gave a light chuckle as she finally parted from her partner.
Going to their respective tables, all of the guests had their fill with all the delectable food served for the evening…
"Well, I did not expect my date to be with you, Bro" Al said as he finally dropped his utensils by the plate after finishing his steak.
"Well, You and me, both. I did not expect Elsa to get really close to Serena that quickly"
"Ahahahaha. That is really one of her charms. She is quite sociable even with her fierce looks"
"But seriously, in your next date… I think you just go for it" Subaru said as he looked back at the chuckling Elsa and Serena at the far side of the garden.
"You really think that it is time? I mean it was still a kiss though… No second base or anything" Al answered back as he scratched his head.
"No, No, No, I think it is really fine. When you said that she wrapped her arms around your neck, you did feel it right? I mean in the kiss, you felt something different from your usual kiss, right?" Subaru said as he then continued to explain what that certain action meant, basing it on his experiences with Elsa.
Laughing at Subaru's explanation, Al simply shook his head and said, "I can't really believe that I am this much inexperience with love, especially to someone younger than me"
"Nah, Al, I mean I didn't just learn it on the get go. I mean I was like you back then. I was super careful back then that I really did not want to make her feel that I was forcing myself onto her. However, in a relationship, you get each other's body language, right? I mean for you, you were her personal bodyguard for quite a long time, so thinking out of your emotions for a bit… You could get your own conclusions on what she really wanted and felt at that moment" Subaru answered, which gave Al a sudden realization, as he remembered Serena's body language after the kiss.
"Oh, Fuck! You are right. I was too caught up in the moment that I did not see her signals" Al said as he placed his hands on his head, as he realized his mistakes.
Just as Al and Subaru were discussing that, on the other table, it was surprisingly the same topic.
"He just parted away from me, took a pause, and then told me goodnight" Serena said as she tried to understand why Al did not grab his opportunity to be with her that night.
"He definitely wanted you for sure" Elsa answered back as she reminisced about the time when Subaru did that to her.
"Oh? How can you be sure?"
"The pause he did was a sign where he wanted reassurance. I am pretty sure he is like Subaru at the very beginning of a relationship. And I am sure he had a very good reason as well" Elsa said as she remembered the couple's story a while ago.
"What would it be?" Serena asked as she tilted her head in curiosity.
"Well, as for Subaru, he told me that he really did not want to make me feel that he was forcing himself on me… And, with Al, I am sure that he felt the same way… especially what happened to you on that day at the banquet… I am very sure that Al did not want to become one of the people he came to resent on that day" Elsa said which made Serena realize how foolish she was for not seeing this sooner.
"What should I do then?"
"I wouldn't say that you should be more upfront with him but… maybe drop a bit more hints next time… *chuckle* I am sure in time, you guys will know each other like the back of your hand" Elsa replied which made the High Countess smile and nod in approval.
… … …
Finishing dinner, Anastasia hosted numerous games, from children, to couples, to bachelors, and even to families. In short, no one was left out from the celebration of the young Meili's birthday…
Returning to their partners after the games, Subaru and Elsa sat by a nearby table as they continued to watch over their daughter having fun with her friends in the games devised by Anastasia. While Al and Serena, on the other hand, went to the side of the house, removed from the noises of the crowd.
Teasing each other of how they were in the games, the two partners had a good laugh. Taking a seat on the bench near them, Al and Serena made some small talk before Serena finally asked Al, why he looked so defeated on "that" day even though he saved her…
"Oh, Come on, Serena. I was just at a moment… that's all" Al responded as he tried to shrug off Serena's question.
Knowing that he was dodging the question, Serena tried to give him a push so he could tell her.
Putting her hand over his, Serena asked her question once again, however, she added, "If you do love me, you can tell me"
"I do love you… It's just that I don't see the point that you would even like to know that" Al said as he gave a light chuckle to play off her question.
Gripping his hand, Serena answered, "Well… It's because I want to understand… And I can't be your lover if I don't…"
Backed into a corner, Al shook his head…
It was not like that Al did not want her to understand… But.. It was just too painful for him to go back to that time…
Turning his hand as he clasped hers, Al looked straight back as Serena's eyes as he took deep breaths to muster his answer.
"Al"
"W-Well… It's because at that time… I… love you very much…" Al said as tears started to pour from his eyes.
Hearing his words Serena felt the pain and emotion he imbued within them…
Shaking his head, he added, "And… on that day, I saw things…"
"Al *sob* *sob*"
"That one was a delight~ Too bad that we have to kill her"
"Yes, my child, scream in pleasure!"
"Save me!"
"Please kill me…"
With quivering lips, as his thoughts go back to these unseen memories, Al finished,"…more than I have to…"
Nodding his head, he knew this was his genuine answer… He never wanted to relive that moment again in his life… It was regretful… It was shameful… but most of all it was unbearable…
Seeing him break down into tears, Serena knew that she had heard enough…
Giving him an embrace, Serena apologized for what she had made him go through once again…
Now understanding his words, Serena Dracroy's love for him has been solidified and her determination to show how much she loves him grew even stronger.
… … …
Accompanied by fireworks, they concluded the celebration with one final "Happy Birthday" to the birthday girl.
After some time, many of the guests gave their thanks and goodbyes as they finally parted ways…
Just as the butlers and other hired personnel of Anastasia were clearing out all of the party décor, furniture, stages, and booths, Subaru and Elsa finally carried Shadow and Meili in their arms, respectively, to Meili's new bedroom.
All tuckered out from the party, Elsa tucked Meili into the bed while Subaru placed Shadow on the soft pillow right at the front of the doghouse.
After each giving their own kiss to the forehead of Meili, Subaru and Elsa wished their little bundle of sunshine sweet dreams and a restful night, before finally parting from her to help with the clean-up downstairs, as well as, to give their final proper goodbyes to their friends that still remained…
Finishing the clean-up, Subaru and Elsa gave one last embrace to Anastasia, before finally making her way to her Dragon Carriage, alongside with Ricardo who was carrying the sleeping Pearlbaton triplets.
As the Dragon carriage of Anastasia finally parted, another Dragon carriage came from behind to receive the final two guests that remained.
"Well, you guys certainly took your time" Subaru said as he smiled back at the couple who were holding hands.
"Well… Let us just say that time got a bit away from us… And, I mean the free Booze surely did help with that *hic*" Al replied with a light chuckle.
"We will certainly have a discussion about your alcohol intake as soon as we get back to the mansion" Serena remarked as she shook her head at the state of Al.
"We are really thankful for taking your time to celebrate our daughter's birthday" Elsa said as she gave a light smile to the High Countess.
"Oh, no, no, no, the pleasure is all mine… Also… This day made me open my eyes to a lot of things…" Serena said as she gripped her hands on Al tighter.
"And I couldn't have realized these things without your company… so, thank you for having us as your guests" Serena finished, bringing a smile to the young couple.
Leading the High Countess by the hand, Al kissed the hand of Serena before letting her in first into the Dragon carriage. Receiving a delightful smile from the High Countess, she whispered, "I love you" with a blush.
Following suit, Al was truly happy at that moment… Although he initially arranged the date to be just a simple good time with old friends, he never expected this day to be more personal with Serena… Even though it was definitely hard for him to open up to Serena like he did some time ago… In the end, he was very glad that he did because… from that moment onwards, he truly felt closer to her… and he could feel Serena opening up for her love for him more and more…
Waving a goodbye as the Dragon carriage finally moved, Al gave his final goodbye to Subaru and Elsa. "Until we meet again, Bro!"
Waving back to him in response, Subaru and Elsa watched on until the dragon carriage was finally out of sight.
With nothing but the sounds of the wind remaining at the Natsuki Residence, the couple now truly knew that it was now officially the end of Meili's birthday.
Yes, Al is paired up with Serena Dracroy (MILF) (not really) (but is scorching hot)
So, I hope you cheer for our bro in his smut adventures with this woman right here.
Also, as you might have noticed, I cut back on the "you know" what happened to Serena because I would rather have Al have that memory, instead of us...
Unless... You guys want to... (The time at the mansion with Al is pretty fucked up... at least in my head)... Just joking
Anyways, Al saved Serena so all is good :)
I am just giving Al some love for being a Bro to Subaru and I just really want to have a Serena smut as well so (Two Birds with one stone)
See you in the next Chapter!
