Chapter 224: Being The Strongest

I headed back inside with Kyla, but when I got to the walkway of the main area, everyone was gone. I turned right and headed over to the stairs, but a door opened and Titania stepped out looking clean and fresh. 

"Hey, babe!" I said with excitement, even surprising myself, but I was happy to see her. 

"Hello Mr., I heard you stormed off again, I am surprised to see you back so soon, hehe," Titania said coming over to lean down to give Kyla and then me a kiss.

"Yeah, but I wouldn't call it storming off, I am more upset with myself, I just keep screwing up with you girls. I could have just waited for everyone to get back, but instead, I was more concerned about going to fight."

"Maybe, but it's your job to go running off without us. Most of the girls don't understand why you do it, but I do. You want to make sure none of us get hurt, but that's hard to get through to some of them. They don't understand what it's like to be the strongest," Titania said, walking with Kyla and me.

"What do you mean by that? I mean, I think I get it, but I want to know what it means to you."

"My story isn't like yours, but when I would work with the dwarves there was a big size difference. So, I would move the heavy stuff by myself, but the others always wanted to help. They thought I was just being mean when I would say that I didn't need help. I had to explain to them that I would have to worry about them getting hurt and that I might make a mistake when I was trying to pay attention to them," Titania explained. 

That rang true for me, and we were back on the main level and I saw Nika and Dalmia talking over in the lounge. I directed her to the girls; she looked like she wanted to get back to work, but there was lots of time for that later. Kyla started to wiggle in my arms until I put her down and she ran over to hop up on Nika's coiled tail.

Nika scooped her up and loosened her coils to make a place for Kyla to slide down into. Then, Kyla started to duck down and come back up growling to each of us. All of us took our turns being scared, but after, Kyla cuddled into Nika and closed her eyes. 

We had been up pretty early, and my lightning charge hadn't helped either. It would be good for her to get some more rest, or I was liable to get more teeth marks before the day was done.

"Thank you for telling me, babe. I love hearing your stories and I agree, that is the way I feel about it. It's not like I don't want you all with me, but no matter what I will always worry about you all. I just don't want any of you to be hurt more than you already have. I am not just your husband in this game, but I am your guardian. Dave placed me as your ward, tasked with the responsibility of protecting you all until we beat the game. I love you all and I will always protect you all with my dying breath."

The three girls smiled at me and told me that they already understood and my speech was wasted on them. None of them wanted to go out and get in harm's way, and they were perfectly fine with staying home with the kids or working on projects. 

That made me grin, maybe wasted, but it was good to hear that they at least understood. I kissed each of the girls, and Kyla's head as she slept, leaving her with Nika. Titania was going downstairs to her lab where I was going anyways to do some tests, so we walked together to the stairs, and started to walk down.

"So, Xelios's sodas work pretty well, eh? But now you are just so small and cute, when do I get to spend some alone time with you? Violet will shit bricks if I put her off any longer, but I am free tomorrow," I said, giving Titania a sideways look.

Oh boy, I had yet to see my Giantess with such burning cheeks.

"You...should come in the morning to my workshop...and...bring a condom…" Titania said with a couple pauses, looking a bit flustered.

Goddammit, this woman could be so damn cute when she didn't want to be! I grabbed Titania and pulled her into my arms, giving her a deep and passionate kiss. She melted into me, and I held her for a while in the middle of the hall, even after the kiss.

"It's a date, I could bring to bottles if you wanted and we could, you know, rock the boat!"

"More like breaking the boat, hehe," Titania said, loosening up and losing most of the red from her face. "I will see you in the morning, just bring yourself. Also, try not to frustrate her too much, she is likely to pop a gasket. In fact, I suggest you give it to her more than once! That woman is a basket case of wild emotions; as the others said, she needs it," Titania said with a big smile as I let her go.

I raised my eyebrow to her but she just turned and walked over to the left door, pushing the button, and then walked in without saying a word. Jesus, just how bad was she? Enough that my loving yet mostly timid wife tells me I need to give her the dick? Oye!

I turned to the right, pushing the button beside the door, and walked in as soon as it opened. There was only one person in the lab/surveillance room. That one short purple-haired woman was glaring and pointing a finger at me.

"YOU!" Violet yelled at me.

Oh boy, here we go!
