Nathair1: Thanks. I'm tossing some ideas around currently. Hmm...you might have given me an idea for that, thanks. He's Iruma's first friend after being sold, so it sort of makes sense. She's skeptical. Yeah, I probably should've added a few punctuations here and there.

Enjoy the next chapter.

Clara and Iruma walked down the road in silence before Iruma looked over towards Clara and saw her head down, "Clara?" Clara hummed and looked up as Iruma frowned and shook his head, "What's wrong? If it's about the Battler thing, we have until Monday...we can pick a different one an-"

"N-no...it's not that, Iruma-kins...I mean I don't want to see my mate get eaten by a bad demon, but...the truth is," Clara sighed as she hung her head again and Iruma arched a brow in confusion, "Ever since we found out we were bond mates and we completed it after...you know," Iruma hummed and nodded as Clara continued, "I rarely spent any time with Ran-Ran, Sin-Sin, Keebow, Konchie and even Urara...and reading to Lady Redhair is taking up a lot of time too...I don't want you going alone because I don't know what Lady Redhair will do,"

Iruma reached over and patted the top of her head, getting her attention as he smiled, "Why don't we get home for now, Clara? Wouldn't want our families to be worried about us again, right?" Clara frowned and nodded before they continued walking down the road.

Clara and Iruma sat next to each other at the time while Clara's younger siblings sat across from them, her parents sat by their right side and Sullivan sat on their left as Opera began serving food. Looking up, Iruma spoke, "Hey grandpa?" the old demon hummed as he looked at his adopted grandson with a smile, "Will it be okay if me and Clara take off from school tomorrow and all of us go to the lake for the weekend?"

Everyone stared at the blue-haired human in confusion before Sullivan asked, "And where is this coming from, grandson?"

"Well, the Hunt was a little crazy today and we have until Monday to decide which Battler we want to join, and I thought that it'll be nice if all of us went to the lake for the weekend and got some fresh air,"

Sullivan hummed and he rubbed his chin as Clara leaned over and whispered to Iruma, "Iruma-kins, why did you lie? The Hunt wasn't bad...why did you tell the principal that?"

"I just thought it'll be a good idea, Clara," Clara hummed and tilted her head to the side in confusion.

"Very well," everyone looked at Sullivan as he stuck out his chest, "All of us shall go to the lake tomorrow and enjoy a peaceful weekend,"

"And I shall make preparations," Opera said as he finished serving food while Clara's parents looked at Iruma. One in confusion and the other with narrowed eyes before the large family began eating the food in front of them.

Clara raced up the stairs with Iruma following before they heard Jack speak, "Iruma," they stopped and looked back to see Alyssa and Jack staring at Iruma, "A moment please," he looked up and smiled at his oldest daughter, "We just want to talk to your husband, sweetheart, he'll be up in a few minutes, okay?"

"Okay...but please don't hurt Iruma-kins, mommy and daddy," the two nodded as Clara turned and ran up the rest of the stairs and into the room.

Seeing the door close, the adults looked at Iruma and Alyssa slightly frowned as she touched her cheek, "Iruma, what brought up the lake trip all of a sudden? It couldn't have been that bad in school today,"

"Alyssa is right, no matter how violent the upperclassmen may be, they will never cross the line of exhausting the First Years," Jack crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes, "So...you were trying to seduce my daughter at the lake an-"

"Sir...if I wanted to do that, I wouldn't have suggested it be a family outing," Iruma sighed and rubbed the back of his head, "No, it's not like that. On our way home today, Clara seemed upset and I asked her what was wrong...she told me that she's upset that she's not spending as much time with her siblings as she normally would, so I thought why not take a small extended weekend, go out to the lake for the weekend and join a Battler on Monday...this way she can spend time with her siblings and we all get some fresh air for a few days...oh, but can you guys not tell Clara about that? I don't want her to know,"

Alyssa smiled as she nodded, "Of course, Iruma, and thank you. My other children were getting upset as well, but they didn't want to bother you and Clara," Iruma hummed and nodded before he turned and walked up the stairs and into the room.

Seeing the door close, Jack sighed as he shook his head and rubbed the back of his neck, "He's a good kid, that's for sure, but he really shouldn't trick his wife like that,"

"Oh, come now, darling, it's not so bad. If I recall correctly, you used to do this to me too,"

"Yeah, but Alyssa, that was different an-" his eyes widened and color ran from his face as he saw Alyssa glaring at him with a small smile crossing her lips, "Uh...right, I guess it will be okay for him to surprise Clara and the other kids. Using the lake trip as an excuse is brilliant," Alyssa smiled as she turned and walked away and Jack soon followed her.

Clara moaned before she turned on her side and nuzzled closer to Iruma and looked up with wide eyes, "Hey Iruma-kins?" Iruma hummed and looked down in confusion, "What did mommy and daddy want to talk to you about?"

"Well...your dad thought I was using this trip to seduce you and when I told him that if I wanted to do that, I wouldn't have invited everyone else," Clara hummed and blinked as Iruma scratched his chin, "Anyway, we have to get up early tomorrow if we want to get to the lake by noon, so we better get some sleep,"

"Iruma-kins, why did you want to go to the lake this weekend?" Iruma's eyes widened as he looked away, "Iruma-kins? Why did you plan this trip?"

"Goodnight, Clara," without warning, Iruma closed his eyes and Clara pouted before lying on his chest and closed her eyes.

The two families entered a cabin and Keebow, Konchie, Ran-Ran and Sin-Sin began running around as Clara frowned and hung her head. Feeling a hand on her head, she looked up to see Iruma smiling at her, "Why don't you spend some time with your siblings?" Clara's eyes widened as Iruma rubbed back back of his head and chuckled, "I'm going to help your dad and Opera unpack everything and then I might walk around the grounds for a bit, so you should spend some time with your brothers and sisters," Clara smiled and nodded before she turned and began running with the four as Iruma turned and walked out of the cabin with Jack and Opera.

While unloading the carriage, Opera looked at Iruma with a blank expression, "Master Iruma," Iruma hummed as he looked at the red-haired butler, "Why not tell young Clara what the true purpose of this week is and tell her you wanted her to spend time with her younger brothers and sisters?"

"I wanted her to have fun without knowing why I really brought us out here, because if she knows, she might feel guilty and I don't want that, Opera, and besides, it'll do everyone some good to get some fresh air once in a while," Opera hummed and nodded as the three of them continued to unload the carriage.

The two families sat by the lake and Iruma looked up and slightly smiled at the sight of Clara, Keebow, Konchie, Ran-Ran and Sin-Sin running in the shallow waters, "Smooth move, grandson," Iruma looked up to see Sullivan standing over him with a smile, "Using this trip as an excuse to cheer your little friend up."

"What? No grandpa, I wanted to have a family outing an-"

"Her parents told me and Opera," Iruma's eyes widened before he sighed and shook his head, "I suppose that we all needed this little break,"

Iruma took a deep breath before looking back out to the lake and slightly smiled, "Yeah, the main reason was for Clara, but we needed a break too," Sullivan hummed and nodded before walking away.

"Iru-boy," he heard a voice whisper and he looked down to see Ali staring out the collar of his shirt, "When are you going to inform the Chair-Demon about Kirio Ami? He's a menace an-"

"I know, Ali, but we can't accuse him without any evidence because that can cause a lot of trouble...Monday we'll join the Battler and find out a bit more before telling grandpa," the specter hummed, "I would like Clara not to join so she doesn't get hurt, but I know without a doubt in my mind that she'll use a similar argument about not wanting me getting hurt, and besides, we'll have Azz with us," the specter hummed as it faded back into the ring and Iruma stood up and stretched before walking over to the lake and jumped in.

Clara and Iruma, in their swim suits, stepped into the room they were sharing as Clara dried her hair and smiled before quietly closing the door behind her, locking it in the process. Iruma looked back and his eyes widened as he saw Clara taking her bathing suit off, allowing it to drop to the floor, "C-Clara, what are you doing? Your parents are here an-" Clara ignored him as she tossed the towel down and walked over to him, licking her lips with each step she took, "C-Clara? Are you okay?"

"Mommy and daddy told me why you brought everyone out here, Iruma-kins," Iruma swallowed hard in a panic as Clara stood in front of him before quickly pulling his shorts down, "And mommy said she'll keep daddy away for a couple of hours and we haven't had any fun since we completed our bond,"

"C-C-Clara...your dad is going to find ou-" before he could finish, Clara lunged at him, tackling him onto the bed, her arms around his neck and her lips pressed against his.

Clara sat up and licked her lips before lining her pussy up with Iruma's member before sliding down, morning as she felt Iruma enter her. She slightly smiled as she looked down at her bond mate and groped her breasts and bit her lip, "So, are you ready, Iruma-kins? We don't have to worry about getting in trouble since mommy is going to keep daddy away." Iruma swallowed slightly as he reached up and lightly rubbed her breasts before pinching her nipples, causing her to arch her back slightly, "It's okay, Iruma-kins." Iruma sat up and began to lightly sucking on the side of Clara's neck, causing her to moan.

Alyssa and Jack sat on the front steps of the cabin, watching as Keebow and Konchie ran around, laughing before Jack took a deep breath and shook his head before looking at his wife, "I know what they're doing up there," Alyssa hummed and looked up with a small smile crossing her lips, "The kids, I'm not stupid, Alyssa. Clara asked you to keep me busy while she and Iruma have-"

"Jack, they're married and they completed the bond not too long ago, if they want to enjoy each other's company then let them enjoy themselves, and besides, Clara will spend time with her brothers and sisters during the weekend, so it's not like Iruma lied about this trip." Jack sighed in defeat as the two of them continued to watch their sons run around, laughing.

Clara and Iruma, covered in sweat, laid under the sheets and panted as Clara scooted closer to Iruma and laid her head on his chest as Iruma wrapped an arm around her and rubbed her back, "See Iruma-kins, mommy and daddy didn't come in while we were having fun,"

Iruma hummed and nodded, "It's amazing no one barged in on you two," they jumped and Clara quickly covered herself with the sheet as the specter emerged from Iruma's ring on his right hand, "You two were so loud, it's amazing you didn't scare any of the wildlife," Clara moaned in embarrassment as her face began burning red and she quickly covered it with her hands.

Acting quickly, Iruma held the sheet up, covering Clara's nude body before he glared at the specter with narrowed eyes, "You know, Ali, it's very inconsiderate of you to show up after Clara and I had sex...what if we weren't covered?"

"Relax, Iru-boy, I wouldn't just show up like that, I'm simply stating a minor detail that shouldn't go unnoticed." Iruma groaned as he shook his head and Clara continued to hide her face behind her hands in embarrassment, "Anyway, it's good to see the Ring of Lust gave you two a little extra push in your love life and that-"

"Ali...one, is this going to have a specter inhabiting the ring as well?"

"What? No, I'm linked to all Seven Rings, I get a tad stronger for each Ring you collect, so with that-"

"Then please go back into the Ring...Clara and I would like to rest for a bit if that's okay with you," the specter looked around and shrugged before retreating back into the Ring of Gluttony, "So...do you want to lie down for a while or do you want to get dressed an-" Clara shifted herself onto Iruma, forcing him to lay back down and she laid on his chest, pouting and Iruma sighed as he rubbed her back to comfort her.

Okay, a few things, first, the idea for this chapter was inspiered by Nathair's review, so thanks for that, second, this first installment will be coming to an end soon and I will be working on the sequel, maybe five or six more chapters, I'll let you know in the next update, and lastly, Ali being bound to all the rings also came from Nathair's review. I didn't know if there should be multiples, or just one, and they asked the same thing, so I decided to flip a coin and there is only one to avoid a lot of confusion.

Anyway, please enjoy everyone.
