"Wait! I said wait!"

With Amelia behind him, Orion opened the door to his room and entered.

"What's taking over you?! You haven't said anything yet and just kidnapped me upstairs!"

Amelia seemed bothered by how forcefully and abruptly he dragged her. With a frown on her face, she tried to shake his hand off.

"So strong!"

With a shocked expression, she looked at her hand, then at Orion's face, covered by a veil of darkness.

He pulled her inside the room and closed the door gently.

"Stella was sleeping, right? I managed to catch a glimpse of everyone when I returned. So, was she really asleep?"

Downstairs, Stella had fallen asleep on Dramia's laps after being gently soothed by her and Drania, so Amelia nodded and confirmed his words.

"Yes... why?"

Orion snapped his fingers, creating a faint barrier around his room that stopped sounds from leaving it.

"I don't want her to listen to what's going to happen. In fact, I don't want anyone to listen."

"Huh?!"

Amelia somehow felt in danger. This was the first time she felt like this while being with Orion. She had no idea if he alright or not, and was confused as to what he meant by that.

He turned around and approached Amelia with large steps. With each step, Amelia took one back, until her feet bumped on the bed.

"Wai- Hya!"

Her back fell on the sheets, before Orion caged her with his arms. His right knee locked, sunk between her thighs as he closed every escape routes.

"W-What are you going to do to me? Have I done something to anger you?"

She smiled worryingly and asked him, trying to make some sense in her mind. This situation was too confusing for her.

"Do I look angry?"

"I can't see your eyes..."

Orion touched his face in confusion.

That was when the dark veil finally vanished. Amelia blinked as her eyes registered at last what was about to happen.

Silka's symbol was as bright as ever, and Orion had a faint blush on his face. She noticed his rough breathing, and the tensed muscles of his arms grabbing the sheets.

"Oh... You're going to fuck me, aren't you? Right now?"

Barely understanding how such a thing came to be thrown at her so suddenly, she blinked a few times and blurted out her thoughts.

"I want to. Is that a bad thing?"

"Well..."

She pulled herself closer to his chest and placed her left hand in the right pocket of his pants. From it, she took out the pocket watch and opened it.

Maybe she hadn't fully registered her current situation, but Amelia remained calm.

"It's almost 4PM, right? I have to prepare dinner around 7PM. So... three hours?"

"We've got plenty of time then."

Orion grabbed the watch from her hands and placed it on the table next to him. He entwined his fingers with Amelia's and stared into a pearl eyes.

"I thought this day would never hap-"

Before she could finish speaking, Orion's mouth plugged her own. They exchanged a long and passionate kiss, probably the most wild they had so far.

Amelia wrapped her arms around his back, while Orion lifted her right leg with his left arm, holding it as he kept indulging in his lover's warmth.

A small glistening object caught Orion's attention as he was kissing her. He looked at his left wrist and frowned.

'Even I don't want them to see that.'

*Smack*

"Haaa... Ha- Huh? Why did you stop?"

With a trail of saliva between them, Amelia asked with her cheeks completely red.

"I had almost made a grave mistake. Give me a second."

He released Amelia from his grasp and walked away from the bed. Amelia straightened and arranged her disheveled clothes rapidly, thinking that maybe he had regained his usual composure.

But she just saw him unclasped the lock of his bracelet, before removing his shirt. He folded it neatly on his table, and placed the bracelet onto it.

After opening the door, he placed them on the ground outside his room and left them there. He closed the door, and returned to business.

A certain angel exhaled a long breath of relief, glad that his son remembered them, but the demon looked incredibly heartbroken, not being able to see her son ravage his first woman.

"Amelia... remove your clothes."

She nodded shyly, and slowly removed every piece of clothing on her body, ending up in her underwear.

Orion removed his everything too, and returned to his bed.

'Finally...'

Amelia smiled affectionately, her biggest dream finally being granted at last.

...

After Tetra said that Orion was horny.

"Tetra! Could you not say that so blatantly?"

"Why? It's the truth. These ladies are fine with that, right? It means that now that Amelia did the deed, they have the chance to spend the night with him."

It would be an understatement to say that they were ALL waiting for that moment to happen. Not only were they waiting for Orion to be in the mood at last, but they also needed to respect a certain order.

A very simple order that they discussed between them beforehand in case this whole situation unfolded at last.

Amelia was to be the first. They all agreed to it. They all swore not to go ahead of another, and to not steal someone's time with him.

Bringing chaos into his life was something they all wanted to avoid, especially after coming out alive from an almost certain death.

"That may be right, but what if Stella had been awake! I would have removed that head of yours and screwed another in its place!"

"Wait... you're serious, aren't you?"

Tetra blinked at her friend, who nodded slowly.

"Well, I did check before speaking if our daughter was asleep, so I'm safe?"

"OUR daughter?"

Henrietta glared at her.

"Please, can you at least ignore that? I really like the girl. She's so sweet, so gentle, and so diligent. Can't I consider her as my own daughter?"

"You have Amelia, while I have no children of my own! That's just unfair!"

The pink haired women trashed around playfully on the couch like a little kid, before she calmed down, her face turning serious.

"Stella's 'her' daughter, right? Isn't that the least I can do?"

"..."

Silence fell into the room, making the rain hitting the window the only sound heard.

The first one to break the silence was none other than Olivia. With a dramatic cough, she broke the weird mood.

"Anyone wants to know what happened in Noctelagia? Senia and I have a very long story to tell."

"You won't believe it, Orion was incredible! I remember the stories you told me about him fighting, but seeing it for real was even better!"

Senia clenched her fists to her chest, and jumped around excitedly.

"Well, while they are... occupied, I believe it might be the best option we have right now. Do I wake Stella?"

Dramia asked with a cold expression. Inside, she envied Amelia slightly.

"No, that will not be necessary. Orion will probably want to tell the story to her later. If he ever comes down."

May jokingly said, shrugging.

"You're right..."

They all looked at Deveralna. Karteira, Olivia, May, Dramia, Drania, Senia, and Deveralna herself sighed.

'Must be nice.'

After that, Olivia and Senia explained what happened in Noctelagia.

...

It took a few hours for the story to be entirely told. Olivia's struggle in finding the kelpies, the origin of the dying kelpies, Senia's exploration into the Carmel Sea, and her stumbling into their cave.

Then, the exchange between Saffira and the trio. With the blessing from the kelpie leader, Orion and Olivia went underwater as if they were sirens, just like Senia.

The group listened, engrossed into the story so far, until the moment the giant corrupted appeared in front of them.

Senia explained that she had been unable to clearly see the creature. She told them that they were fighting a long and dark creature with a bright red eye, making it a rather easy yet fleeting target into the dark sea.

They managed to follow its movements thanks to the bolt Orion fired into its tail. Until the tail was ripped off, they used that bolt of light to judge where its body was. With the eye at its front, and the light at its end, it made it easy for them to land attacks.

Once into the marine crevasse, it became very easy to see it between the rocky walls. But after trapping it under piles of rocks, it somehow returned even more dangerous.

That was when they were forced to withdraw. From the beach, they saw from far away the true power of Orion's magic.

The ray of light that purged the corruption. Just listening to its description, all the women around the table shivered. Not because they were scared, but because they were impressed. Especially Karteira, who obtained the light element.

They also told them Orion's side of the story. How he dealt with the giant eel while leaving the magic take over. His angel blood awakened, making him one step closer to his parents.

A few minutes after the story ended, they were discussing what Olivia and Senia felt after failing to completely support Orion.

While they were all acknowledging the massive gap of strength between them and him, footsteps were heard from upstairs.

All voices died down, their gaze anchored on the doorway leading to the corridor.

The first one to appear was Amelia, a rosy blush on her face. The bright smile on her face showed that she had truly obtained the happiness she wanted.

Behind her, Orion entered their sight, putting on his bracelet back on.

"Amelia."

She felt very awkward.

"How was it?!"

Olivia stood up and ran toward her, before grabbing both of her hands. With stars in her eyes, she waited for the woman's answer.

"Hmm~ I don't know if I should tell you."

Jokingly, she walked past her and sat on the couch.

"Hie-"

Amelia suddenly yelped. She sealed her mouth with both hands rapidly and looked at everyone.

Then, all eyes shifted to Orion, shocked.

"What have you done to her..."

May looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.

"What?"

Orion held his head high. He wasn't ashamed of himself in the slightest.

"No... nothing."

As May turned her face away, a worried mother suddenly walked toward her daughter.

"Amelia, did you-"

"No. He was well-prepared, so we used those. Don't worry, I'm not ready to bear a child yet."

Henrietta sat on the arm rest of the couch and hugged her daughter's head.

"That is good, then. Anyway, I'm happy for you. You finally got what you wanted..."

Tears of relief fell from Henrietta, and dropped on Amelia's cheeks. She knew exactly why her mother felt emotional all of a sudden.

This was the only timeline where her daughter managed to keep the love she desired.

"Thank you, mom. Without you, it wouldn't have happened."

A heartwarming scene of a daughter and a mother embracing each other. Everyone smiled and felt truly happy for Amelia.

Orion turned around with a smile on his face, and went to the kitchen to make some coffee. While in there, he felt a pull on his shirt from behind.

He glanced behind him, and saw a blue haired woman staring at him. Her scorpion tail as in full view above her head, trembling ever so slightly.

"Karteira? Do you want some coffee too?"

"S-Sure... but..."

She swallowed hard, and looked away shyly.

"Can I b-be next?"

There was no way he wouldn't understand her meaning.

"I have no reason to refuse. Not today though."

'I've brought restless nights upon myself... I sure did.'

But thinking that he would share the same warmth he felt with the others, his emotions once again awakened.

With Silka's sigil lighting up, his love for his lovers only grew larger. It was a matter of time until all of them shared the same fated as Amelia.

And while Orion was strengthening his bond with everyone, Elliott and Nylon killed another giant corrupted.

Only one remained, the spider giant.
