Chapter 600 The Daughter of Abaddon

Abaddon was expecting the girls to have some sort of question for him, or maybe even been burning up with jealousy.

Instead, they took him completely by surprise and embraced him without warning.

"...I will never complain from your touch, but I must confess that?you're taking me a bit by surprise."

Ayaana continued to rub her face onto Abaddon's bare chest like a cat as she squeezed him tightly.

"It's been over a month since we've seen you upright, you know? Everything else comes second to that fact right now, dear."

Abaddon smiled as he wrapped his arms around the girls tenderly and pulled them in even closer.

Though he was asleep, he still undoubtedly missed them too.

Their tender and innocent moment was suddenly cut short when the girls untied the strings on his black swim trunks and slipped their hand inside.

"...Babe."

"W-We just want to hold it!" Ayaana said defensively.

"Our entire family is out here! Plus Gulban!" Abaddon reminded with a hissing whisper.

"S-So?! Your body is tall and wide and... m-muscular and-"

"Babe."

Ayaana shook her head firmly and wiped away the drool that had formed without her knowledge.

"A-Anyway, they can't see us from this position so it's fine! Now just shut up and let this happen!"

"You sound like a boyscout troop leader."

"Y-You make us sound like such predators!"

It should be well documented that the girls were planning to plié their husband with alcohol for their own nefarious purposes.

Though it isn't as if he would have objected or attempted to dissuade them, because he was equally depraved and hardly ever said no to anything that they were into.

Abaddon and Ayaana shared a small bit of laughter in that moment- their shared depraved need for each other always acting as a source of reassurance and lightness in odd moments.

In the midst of their embrace, Abaddon noticed a familiar pair of eyes boring into his back.

He didn't even need to turn around to see who it was and know the kind of condition she was in.

"So... you let her live then?"

The girls poked out their shared lips in a pout. "What do you think of us..? Of course we wouldn't kill the mother of our precious... ah, that's right... we owe the lives of two of our children to her."

The girls' relationships with Thea and Thrudd were slightly different in nature.

Thea was raised without a mother by her single father, so when Lailah and Bekka came around they were instantly cemented as mother-figures.

Thrudd however was raised by her mother, and so when she and her father finally got in contact, she kept a noticeable distance between herself and her father's new wives.

It was something that tended to hurt Ayana's feelings sometimes, but they never tried to push the issue.

After all, you cannot make a child want to have a relationship with you, such a thing must come naturally over time.

Nevertheless, they still loved her just the same as they did any of their children.

Bekka's stomach grumbled audibly in the boat, and everyone turned their heads towards her instinctively.

Feeling slightly embarrassed, her fluffy ears began to droop and she hid her face desperately within Abaddon's hair.

"...Go ahead, my love." Abaddon chuckled.

"YES! Thank you!" Bekka stood up immediately with her tail wagging like a propeller.

She gave everyone on the boat a short kiss before sprouting her wings and taking off- completely unwilling to wait for Tati to steer the boat back to shore.

Abaddon sat up chuckling not long after she left. "I guess we should head back in as well then?"

One by one, the rest of the girls sat up and nodded with their own helpless smiles as they slowly floated back to the rest of the family.

While the girls went to join the adults, Abaddon took a small detour and joined his children instead.

More specifically, Thrudd and Nubia.

When Abaddon suddenly sat down next to his daughter with no warning, he admittedly caught her by surprise.

Because the earlier events from the butcher's shop were still fresh in her mind, she wasn't really sure what to expect from him now that he was coming to talk to her.

"Dad..?"

"Why so surprised? Is it odd of me to come and sit with my daughter?"

"W-Well no, but-"

"She's moping because she feels as though you have grown uninterested with her and are perhaps going to replace her with another favorite child." Nubia volunteered.

"N-Nubbs!"

"She's been like this for the past couple of hours." Nubia just continued to spill all of her sister's secrets without a care in the world.

Abaddon ruffled the hair of both of his daughter's affectionately and wrapped them under his arms. "I have no favorite daughters; I love all of you just the same and none of you could ever replace the other."

He kissed both girls on the forehead before he nudged Thrudd affectionately. "And since I am sorry for upsetting you, I'll grant you a small symbol of apology. Are you still interested in being the final hunt?"

Immediately, Thrudd's eyes lit up like stars and she became noticeably excited. "I-I thought you said I couldn't do it because it was too dangerous!?"

"That is true, but I believe you can handle the situation accordingly... provided you allow your little brother to accompany you."

Thrudd looked to another table at Straga who was busy watching a livestream of the Euphrates exam and chewing on a piece of white bread absentmindedly.

"Y-You mean it!? Don't joke, dad!"

"You have to be ready at 4 a.m. tomorrow, kiddo. Your brother too. Neither of you can be late or we'll proceed as planned."

"We will be! I promise!" Thrudd nodded her head so hard that Abaddon began to worry it might fall off.

"Alright then, your mothers and I will be watching."

Thrudd happily wrapped her father's neck in a hug that was strong enough to crush metal. "Thank you thank you thank youu!!!"

Abaddon smiled as he patted her on the back, secretly wishing her the best of luck already.

He prepared to start giving her a few tips and notes for tomorrow when out of the corner of his eye, Sif began approaching him.

And he knew before she even spoke to him that his time spent avoiding their situationship was nearly up.
