(Previously on 'Where there's Love, there's Life' :)
Harry was so excited that he didn't noticed that he passed by Iris, who seemed amused by the look on his face, and after a moment of fast walking, he found himself on top of a cliff where he was greeted by an amazing sight.
In front of him, was a large bay.
Partially surrounded by land (which formed a semi-circle around the water), the place was absolutely breathtaking. The two large cliffs surrounding the lagoon were high and you could see some sea birds flying around them. Speaking of the lagoon, the water looked clear and was a beautiful blue and the small islands around the coast truly added to the beauty of the place.
Behind the shores of the lagoon (where sadly, there were no beaches), was a large open space where you could see a river passing through it. Harry could see a gorgeous and large green forest meters away from the lagoons and in the distance, standing in all their glories : high mountains. While not as big as the one he grew up near, they were still impressive to stare at.
Harry couldn't help but gaping at the wonderful area standing in front of his emerald green eyes : it was the most beautiful area he had ever seen. Behind him, came the girls who all gasped in shock and amazement at the sight before them.
"So… beautiful..." Lilith commented in a whisper as her eyes gazed at the place with stars in her eyes.
Iris smirked at the group before opening her mouth to say loudly as she stood on their right side.
"Welcome everyone… to your possible new home !"
00/(Present Time)/00
A few days had passed since Iris the Echidna showed them the bay and needless to say that Harry and his wives all agreed on one thing : this place would be their new home. Of all the place they visited, this one was the most beautiful and the most strategic.
Why ? Because of the many advantages they could gain from living here.
What advantages you may be wondering ? Here are your answers :
-Firstly, living near the sea improves your mental health and sea air helps people sleep better. In addition, salt water is a natural skin's treatment.
-Second, by living not too far from a river, Harry and his girls would have an easy access to a water source but they will also have the possibility to have an area to swim and fishing. In addition, living near a source of water bring less stress and less pain which meant a stronger immune system and an improved mood.
-Thirdly, living near a forest could allow our friends to gather medicine herbs and plants of any kind ... and maybe to take some trips there to calm themselves with the peaceful sound of nature.
-Fourthly, by living not too far from mountains, they all had the chance of having a great scenery. That and the sight of mountains reminded them of where they came from.
Back to present, Harry and the girls were working hard to build their new home : a mansion to be precise as a house would be a bit small for the eight of them (Harry, Cirila, Gabrielle, Hela, Iris, Lilith, Reina and Pyralis). At first, they had to uproot some trees to do that ,as the spot they chose was a bit too small to their liking.
Of course, they had first made sure that no one's lived around fist or else they would have trouble. But thankfully, there were no other creatures (apart of the normal wildlife) which had surprised them as the area was perfectly habitable.
Iris had told them that no one came here before them and ,seeing that people tend to never come back from her cave, the world assumed that this area was cursed and so, they avoided this place. That and the fact the sea-folk lived nearby. People who sometimes, kidnapped men to take them underwater where they are never seen again.
It was understandable that people were wary of this area but Harry and his girls decided it was time to rectify this and giving this place, the respect and admiration it deserved. However, to be sure to not have trouble with their neighbors, the little group decided to wait a bit before building a village and instead, focus on their home itself.
After cutting down some trees, they had to look for large rocks and it was Cirila who went to retrieve some, being among the strongest of the group, and she was helped by Reina, Hela and Gabrielle. Pyralis, her, was charged to scout the perimeter and warn them in case a danger came.
What of the last three ? Harry, Lilith and Iris were busy, working on the architectural part of their little project.
For a hour or two, they discussed about what their home should be : a mansion, a manor, a large house… But in the end, it was decided, after a vote, that they would build a manor. Pyralis, Cirila, Hela, Gabrielle and Reina all agreed and so they all started working on the construction of their future home.
However, after seeing how tired some of his wives were, Harry allowed them to have a break while him, Lilith and Iris would build the manor. At first, the concerned girls had refused but after some times, they reluctantly accepted.
While Pyralis, Cirila, Reina, Gabrielle and Hela were resting, the remaining three could start their work : Harry used his magic to create the manor himself using the rocks gathered by his wives while Lilith, her, used her magic to put some wards on the stone to protect it from any type of harm.
Wait, what about Iris ?
She had another mission. Sure she helped in the construction by using her magic to not only decorate the place but to add more wards with the ones Lilith had already putted on the building. However, her main mission was more important : she had to contact the resident sea-folks to arrange a meeting.
Which was easier said that done… as so far, none of them had seen any Aquatic Mamonos lurking in the salt water. Even days after they finished building their manor. Speaking of the manor, the result was simply astonishing.
The manor seemed to belong to the earth itself : made of grays and browns, the stone reflected sunlight perfectly and on the slate roof was a nice topping of lichen. The four-floored building was a stunning sight to behold, with its towering columns, the grand archway above the main doors, and its numerous balconies overlooking the area.
The inside was even grander : a grand staircase leading to the different floors, rooms with soaring ceilings and elaborate chandeliers. The dining room had a really long table where a good number of people could seat around.
There were also a large library filled with thousands of books (some came from Iris), three bathrooms (don't ask why), a game room, a relaxation room (there was a Jacuzzi), a very big kitchen and several other rooms.
Harry had build it not only for him but also for his future children… and maybe some maids. After all, being a rich man, his girls had convinced him to hire some people in the future and he had been reluctant at first and he wasn't very fond of the idea of having people doing things for him.
But again, he was outnumbered… beside, he loved to see his girls happy.
However, seeing that he was the one whobuild the manor, the girls were in charge of decorating it.
And he wasn't disappointed by their choices…
Why ? Because Iris and Lilith clearly went very far with the decorations… as the results were simply amazing : marble floors, several paintings on the walls (mostly representing family members), statues… Even at the entrance, there were two statues representing singing Elves.
Outside the building, forming a large circle around the manor, was a well-kept garden, protected by a what looked like grids. The garden was filled with beautiful flowers of any colors but there were also some trees. A few feet away from the entrance of the manor, stood a fountain… Lilith thought it was a good idea to put one.
It was truly beautiful…
The girls (and Harry) had all been happy with the results and they instantly started unpacking their things. It didn't took them long to do that… the most problematic was where to put their gold and money. It had been decided, after a relatively short discussion, that they would use of the biggest room as a 'Vault'.
The room in question was among the largest and widest of the building and thankfully, there were nothing in it. With a nod of acceptance, Harry picked up the trunk he had used to gather, not only his riches but Iris' as well before opening it.
In a few seconds, the previously empty room found itself filled with golden coins, emerald, rubies and many other pieces of jewelries. Soon enough, the trunk was fully emptied and needless to say that it was shocking to see that the pile of riches almost touched the ceiling !
After a moment of shock came a moment of amusement as they saw Pyralis lunging forward, literally diving into the pile of gold. The Wyvern looked satisfied and incredibly happy and so, Harry left her there for a moment while he, Iris, Lilith and Reina used their magic to create protective wards around the room.
It was the only security they could think of at the moment…
After that, the little group went to choose which room will be theirs… and they found it barely half-a-hour later. It was a really grand room with a king-sized bed, a chandelier above it, a really large dresser… In short, it was the perfect room.
The girls had loved bed… and to test its resistance, they decided to do one simple thing : having sex with Harry on this very bed.
At first our hero was unsure but in a fight of seven against one… it was easy to guess that you have NO CHANCE. After hours of passion and lust, it was proven that the bed was really resistant and so, the bedroom was officially theirs.
Which bring us to the present…
Harry and his wives were relaxing on the beach, having decided to have use this bright sunny day to relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the coast. Reina, Pyralis and Iris were sunbathing while Hela and Gabrielle were playing badminton, a game Harry had introduced them to years ago and they greatly enjoyed. Cirila, her, was watching the area, in case a danger might come to them.
What about Lilith ? She was swimming in the water wearing nothing but a sexy black swim suit that covered only her breasts and neither regions. However, it still allowed her to show her body and her perfectly sizable butt… an ass that she deliberately shook to attract attention to our hero.
Speaking of Harry, he was himself swimming in the water and couldn't help but sometimes glancing at the Succubus as she wriggled her ass at him teasingly. Of all the girls, Lilith had the biggest butt and for Harry, it was a sight to behold. He was no pervert but he was still a man who appreciate the sight of a feminine body.
Shaking his head, our hero then turned his emerald green eyes away from the Succubus (who upon seeing that he wasn't looking at her anymore, pouted childishly in frustration) to look at his surroundings. The farther you go from the shore, the deeper the water is.
But he didn't care anymore as his fear of water had been cured a long time ago by his mother and some other people.
Back to present, as Harry dived underwater, he found himself freezing at the sight in front of him. It was a beauty you could only find in the wild. All around him, were colorful corals and Harry couldn't help but staring at it with fascination. It was hard to believe that the rock structures all around him were made up of colonies of hundreds, if not thousands, of small creatures, but the result was astonishing because it looked like an aquatic forest.
But unlike a 'normal' forest, everything here was full of colour, be it yellow, red, green… even if say colors were a bit tinted with a green-blue light seeing that the sun struggled to force its way through the water. But despite this, the corals shined like hundreds of jewels under the sunlight which amazed our hero greatly.
Then he blinked when a yellow form passed in front of him and smiled when he saw fish surrounding him. Like the corals, the fish had different size and color : some were no bigger than his nails while others looked big enough to eat one of his hands.
On some corals, he could see some crabs every now and then and not too far from him, there was an anemone where he saw clown-fish swimming around it. He even spotted an eel hiding in a crevasse !
But then, Harry had to stop looking at the coral as something unexpected happened : a swarm of silvery fish passed through him and he found himself laughing internally at the feeling of their scales brushing against his skin. He stared at them for a moment before swimming away, looking at the beautiful scenery around him.
However, what he didn't know, what that someone was looking at him, hidden in the shadows. It was a Mamono but unlike the ones living on land, this one was completely different.
The upper body was that of a beautiful woman with fair skin silver hair, and sea blue eyes. She was wearing what looked like a bikini made of shells and her entire lower half was similar to a fish's with silver scales.
She was a Mermaid, a creature of legend… at least on Earth. Mermaids were really popular with the young ones, especially little girls.
Back to topic, the Mermaid was swimming peacefully when she heard splashes in the distance. Curious, she went to investigate… and was surprised to find some people on the beach. It had been a long time since someone dared to come here and she was curious of why those people were present.
After a quick look, she saw that there were eight people here and seven of them were Mamonos like her. The last one, however, surprised her.
Why ?
Because the last intruder was a human. A male human with a nice physical, long dark hair and gorgeous emerald green eyes. Not many humans dared to come near the coast… maybe because a good portion of them got kidnapped by Land-Living Mamonos. And seeing how affectionate he was with the Mamonos with him, it was easy for her to guess that he must be their Husband.
Anyway, the Mermaid watched in silence as the young man dove underwater alongside a Succubus. Still curious about them, she herself went underwater to follow him while trying her best to stay hidden. She watched as the Succubus wiggling her ass to surely tease the man and couldn't help but being a bit jealous to not have an ass as big as the other Mamono's.
Thankfully, her jealously was cut short as her eyes landed back on the human who was now busy looked at the coral reef around him. From the look in his beautiful eyes, she could clearly tell that he was amazed by the aquatic 'garden'.
A part of her couldn't help but feeling proud about it. However, as she regained her composure, the Mermaid blinked once she realized that the man had disappeared from her sight ! Looking around for him, she started to swim again… only to froze when a head appeared a few feet away from her.
Back to Harry, he was unaware that he was being stalked as his eyes were scanning the area, enjoying the sight of the fish swimming in a world of corals, sand and algae. Everything around him caught his interest but, as he turned around a large wall of corals, he had to stop when he came face to face with… a Mermaid ?!
The two of them looked at one another for a moment before Harry slowly waved at her in a friendly manner. The Mermaid looked nervous for a moment but then slowly returned the gesture. Internally glad that she wasn't unfriendly, our hero then used a finger to point her the surface.
The Mermaid frowned as she didn't seemed to understand what he meant… at least at first. A few seconds later, a look of understanding flashed through her eyes and she nodded at him before the two of them swam toward the surface.
Harry gasped loudly as his head burst out of the water, and the Mermaid joined him a second or two after him. For a few seconds, only silence could be heard between them… until Harry turned his head to look at her
"Hello… I'm Harry… and you are ?"
"My name's Darya… pleasure to meet you..." the Mermaid said back in a friendly manner as a smile adorned her face.
"Well, Darya… it is possible for me and my wives to have a talk with you…" Harry began to say calmly to the Mermaid before him.
"What about ?" Darya asked him back with a curious look on her face.
"Well, you see, we recently built our home nearby (he pointed at the manor standing in the distance at those words) and we were thinking of building a village… but we have been told that your people lived in the ocean and..."
"And you want to have our approval before doing anything more..." Darya finished for him with understanding.
"Yes...pretty much… We don't want to cause any trouble…" Harry retorted calmly with a sigh.
The Mermaid nodded in acceptance to those words, touched that those people cared enough for her people to at least ask them for permission before building their village.
"I hope you don't mind us having already built something..." the young man inquired her with a sheepish smile on his face.
"No way ! In fact, we would be more than happy to have neighbors but for some reason no one ever came here...at least until now..." Darya answered with a deep sigh.
"I'm sorry to hear that…" Harry replied with sympathy.
"It's alright… we grow accustomed of it…" the Mermaid answered with a shrug as if it was no big deal.
A short silence followed until they heard a call in the air "HARRY !"
Turning their heads, they both saw the girls looked toward them and looked at one another
"Look like it is time for me to go…" Harry said with a sigh.
Darya nodded her head in understanding
"I should go as well… It was nice meeting you..." the Mermaid said to our hero in a friendly manner before turning around to leave.
But before she could, he stopped her "WAIT !"
Darya turned her head to face him, looking at him with surprise.
"Thank you for allowing us to stay around..." Harry told her with a gentle smile, which was quickly returned.
"It's nothing… but you will have to talk to the Queen before you and your wives could start building your village…" Darya told him with a serious expression.
"It is possible for us to meet her ?"
"Of course ! I will talk to her and see if it is possible to organize a meeting !"
"It would be really appreciate, Darya…Thank you again..."
The Mermaid nodded at him with a smile and the two shared one last wave before she disappeared underwater, heading elsewhere. Harry watched her go for a moment before turning around to head toward the beach where his wives were waiting.
"Harry ? Who was she ?" Lilith asked him curiously once the young man reached them.
"Don't tell me you are planning of adding another girl in your Harem ?!" Cirila 4 hissed in annoyance as she narrowed her eyes at him.
Harry stared at her blankly for a moment before answering "Her name is Darya… I told her about our situation and she went to talk with the 'Queen' in possibility of meeting her..."
Many girls looked at each other with hesitation before looking back at him.
"Why ?" Hela asked him with a frown but before he could answer, someone stepped in.
"Because we can't build our village without their approval ! The Sea-Folks hate loud noises and they surely won't appreciate in having noisy neighbors !" Reina explained calmly to the Hellhound who nodded in understanding in the end.
"So what do we do now ?" Pyralis asked her husband with a raisebrow.
"Now we have to wait and see if the Queen will accept to see us !"
