Chapter 441 Kingdom Of Frost Rabbits (8)

"I'm jealous. For the first time in my life, I'm jealous. Everything has been an act. You could say it was me trying to get your attention, but not really jealousy… I've never felt so terrible in my life," The succubus said, and she slowly stood up, leaving the cafe.

I quickly chased after her once I had paid the bill and walked beside her as we made our way toward the hotel.

"What are you jealous of? Is there something you want to tell me?" I asked, caressing her shoulder as I pulled her in close.

"Why not marry me? Why are you marrying just Loath? Why are you marrying just Arpious? What about me? Am I just a sex toy to you?" The succubus asked with a creepily dead smile that almost seemed to glare at me.

"Huh?"

"N-No! What are you saying? Of course, you're not just a sex toy to me. No, you were never a sex toy in the first place… Don't think like that," I attempted to refute, but it seemed not responding would be the best answer.

She only got more mad with each passing second that I spoke, so once she started to go off on me about how terrible she felt, I just stood there and let her berate me with her words.

And once she had finally finished, I thought it would be a good time to apologize, but it seemed she wasn't looking for one.

"I-I'm sorr-"

"Stop. Just stop. *sigh*... Let's go somewhere more private," The succubus muttered as she glanced around at everybody practically eyeing us.

I also agreed and followed her back to our hotel, which was a long walk. It was so long, in fact, that it felt like each footstep took a year to carry out.

Once we had arrived back at the hotel, I noticed Loath was gone, but she left a message with one of the butlers who said,

"She will back. She just went out to get some groceries and some more items," The butler condensed the message, and I soon dismissed everybody as I sat on the couch in the very corner of the living room.

The succubus just paced around the living room, her eyes and mouth slowly frowning the longer she glanced at me.

"I'm sorry if that is how you felt I treated you. I never intended to make you jealous, nor did I intend to try and make you feel unwanted… I just… I'm sorry," I muttered, and the succubus glanced at me once again.

"You think I didn't know that? Of course, I know you didn't mean it, but that doesn't excuse how you neglected my feelings. I'm a humanoid being as well… of course, I feel things like this," The succubus vented and vented, and eventually, I couldn't even get myself to raise my eyes.

The shame was too much as the succubus finally let out how she really felt despite never showing any signs of it previously.

I never knew she felt this neglected or unwanted as she always seemed cheerful and kind of like a small puppy who would always cling to you no matter what happened.

Maybe it was the impression of how she was my slave previously that made me almost look down on her… but I always had a good idea of her. A good impression, despite her being my natural enemy.

Especially after her shift in personality, I ended up really liking her but neglecting how we were in an actual relationship.

"Am I being selfish? Do I not deserve anything because of how I acted in the past?" The succubus asked, staring at the top of my head as I looked down at the ground, hanging my head limply.

"No. Of course not. That is all in the past, and I never once thought of you as somebody lesser than Loath and Arpious. Well, maybe when you were my enemy, but now, I don't hate you more or like you less," I said before slowly standing up and locking eyes with the succubus.

She tried to push me away as I attempted to give her a hug, but I persisted until she looked down at the ground.

Only then was I able to wrap my arms around her without much trouble, and despite her looking like she wanted to cry, no tears flowed from her eyes.

I felt bad. So extremely bad for her. So now I knew I had to take care of her now.

"I'm sorry. I won't ask you to forgive me, but will you marry m-"

"Shut up. Don't ask me to marry you just because you feel bad for me," The succubus muttered, and I immediately regretted asking her.

I didn't intend for it to come out that way, but I knew trying to make excuses would make her madder and push me away again… so I just stood there silently hugging her.

Soon, we both split up, and I let her have some room, causing me to fall back onto the couch, groaning and blaming myself for everything that just happened.

"Fuck… I'm so stupid. Nobody told me having a harem would be this hard," I muttered to myself before closing my eyes.

…

When I opened my eyes once again, I found the succubus taking a relaxing bath in the hot tub, but I decided not to interfere.

But, the succubus had different plans.

"Don't leave yet," The succubus said before dismissing the servants once again, allowing us to have yet another private chat.

"Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?" I asked the succubus, but she didn't even look back to reply.

"Yes. Call me by my name. You keep calling me 'babe,' but I want to hear my real name come out of your mouth,"

"Salva," I muttered, and I could see the succubi's pale complexion brighten with a reddish tint.

"Don't give me such a stupid nickname," The succubus muttered, trying to hide her tomato-red face, but I could still see it even from afar.

I just chuckled to myself silently before entering the bedroom.
