Chapter 220 220 Like A Housewife

He had burned through a fuck ton of Yang Qi just to produce enough semen. So, as soon as she stopped talking, his mind shut down- sending his body into a doze.

Outside, the rain had stopped.

Against the curtains, the sun beamed once again.

--------------------------

Harsh golden rays- in luminescent films, streaked through the eastern window- landing on the floor. Like the sparkling insides of a kaleidoscope, they bounced upwards- diverging in golden yellow strips, scattering the sun's rays all over the beige colored room.

In the King sized bed, Nexus' sleeping body rose and fell- whimpering silently in his sleep.

Laying on his side, with his left knee arched upwards at a forty five degree angle, his cheek nudged against the softness of the white vinyl pillows- sleeping peacefully.

At the edge of the bed, a soft palm landed on his naked right thigh.

Immediately, both eyes flared up- and the harsh golden glare blasted right into his retinas- momentarily blinding him.

Cursing aloud- he jerked his head away, and extracted his right hand from under the pillow- hurtling it towards his face- shielding his eyes from the invasive glare.

Feet rustling across the sheets, he backed away from the eastern window- rolling over to the other side.

"I'm sorry m'lord. . ." was the voice he heard; ". . .I should have shut the blinds. . ."

He felt the mattress lighten up- and heard the soft scurrying sound of her footsteps hustling towards the curtains.

"No. . ." his powerful baritone of his voice surprised him; "Leave it open. . .the ventilation is nice. . ."

Slowly, the blinding pain in his eyes began to melt away. His palm dug into the bed as he pushed himself upwards. His back muscles found the cold wood of the headboard behind him. Face pale, and still squinting, he gradually opened his eyes.

The sun soaked room met his gaze.

Beside him, the succubus sat on the edge of the bed.

Her long hair- now shiny and neat, was tied up behind in a perfect ponytail. As her fuzzy image slowly came into focus, his lazy eyes made out the flowery pink dress on her body.

"You look nice," he grunted in his morning voice.

"Thank you m'lord," she tucked back a strand of hair; ". . .I do feel nice. . ."

His neck craned- arching it towards the window;

"How did you clean up so quickly?" he asked without looking at her; "It's still morning. . ."

She withdrew her hand from the bed- and clasped it on top the other;

"Yes, it is. . .of the next day. . ."

Nearly cracking his neck, Nexus' head spun away from the window- jerking it back to the succubus;

"WHAT?"

"You've been asleep for a full day my lord," she smiled; "You looked so peaceful after– after feeding me yesterday. . .so I let you sleep in."

"FOR A WHOLE DAY?!"

She nodded- bobbing her milky white face up and down;

"Yes."

Nexus lashes curled and flapped over his eyelids- blinking and blinking again. In his gut, an emptiness literally gnawed at him. He opened his mouth to speak, but his stomach did the talking for him.

An embarrassing growl echoed loudly from his gut.

shit.

He was hungry.

For some reason, the corner of her mouth twisted in a grin. She shot upwards from the bed- lapping her air in the wind;

"You don't need to move an inch m'lord. . . I guessed you might probably wake up hungry. . .so I prepared somethi–"

Even before she announced it, the rich spicy smell of burned bacon assaulted his nostrils. His throat bobbed- swallowing the lump that had formed.

"Ta-da!" she exclaimed excitedly- removing the silver lids off the first two plates on the table before him.

Nexus' eyes screamed out in his sockets. On his face, his lower jaw dropped- staring in awe at the platter before him

"We have mashed potatoes with gravy sauce-"

She announced enthusiastically- pointing at the left side of the buffet.

"and next to it–" she gestured like a chef; "–bacon, burned crisp and steamed in hot vegetable oil–"

Her hand darted towards the middle-

"And then there's boiled corn cobs, spinach, peas, and green beans. . ."

Nexus gulped.

". . .and then of course, there's freshly squeezed orange juice, a pint of almond milk, and a jar of clear spring water. . .for, you know–"

The bright blush on both her cheeks echoed louder than the words she was trying to avoid.

Meanwhile, Nexus stared askance at the curling wisps of steam oozing up from the table. The fog of drowsiness slowly cleared from his eyes. Salivating at the mouth, not blinking for a second, he pushed himself upright- and his stomach growled- again.

"Damn Crystal," he rumbled; "I don't know what to say. . .I mean, I'm obviously hungry after sleeping for a whole day. . .and after making love- ten consecutive times. . ."

Crystal's flowery dress rippled as she shifted her weight on her feet.

". . .thank you. . ." he whispered- rolling over to the side of the bed; "I'm so hungry right now, I could eat a whole horse."

Crystal's face went white.

"I'm sorry m'lord, but I didn't prepare horse meat. . .but I can–"n--O..v/.e()l--B--1)-n

She made as if she was about to dash out to go kill the first horse she could find.

"What? No!" he protested; "That was just a metaphor. . .c'mon, I'm not going going to eat a damn horse."

As he threw the covers off, Nexus' shoulders tensed;

"Umm Crystal? You don't happen to know where my clothes are right?"

---------------------------------

A short while later- seated at the table, watching with hungry eyes- he stared at her as she made him a plate.

She held the knife at a forty-five degree angle, slicing through the juicy chunks of fried meat. His eyes followed her every movement- from the pursing of her fingers, to the grinding of the blade.

The succubus had been busy.

Really busy.

From the creases of his garments, the crisp smell of freshly laundered clothes wafted into his nose. Not only had she washed them, she had them ironed. And quite literally helped him get into them- holding out his shirt behind him as he buttoned his pants- like a housewife!

The homely flowery gown with the padded shoulders completed the image.

Eyes trailing her every move, he observed the curling of her fingers around the saucer.

She hoisted it upwards- tilted it slightly, and poured out the the rich rippling sauce. As the gravy descended, it cascaded in thick streams, dripping all over his plate.

The mashed potatoes came next, and Nexus' eyes darted towards the fork and knife resting on the white napkin beside his plate.

"I didn't know you could cook. . .I don't recall ever eating any of your meals. . ."

He was pushing- trying to find out if she had the meal delivered, or if she made it by herse–

"No my lord, since I can't actually eat human food, I never learned to cook."

"Oh, then where'd all this come from?"

"There's a small time restaurant down by the docks, they're known to be the best in town. . ."

Nexus nodded absentmindedly- fighting to keep his angry/hungry stomach from gurgling rebelliously.

She side stepped away from him- beckoning to him;

"Please enjoy. I hope it replenishes your strength," turning away, she said; "I can always get more if it's not enough. . ."

The sound of cutlery clattered against the ceramic plate almost immediately.

Crystal's back had turned away for just a brief moment.

But in that time, Nexus had wolfed half of the bacon strips on his plate. His lips glistened from the slippery delicious gravy. The fork in his right hand worked tirelessly- slicing and slicing- shoving it leftwards to the fork.

The fork in turn dug into the rich crispy flesh, twisted for good measure, and traveled upwards to his open mouth.

His tongue received the chunks- retracted inwards, and immediately passed it over to his molars. The rich juice from the meat spilled all over his tongue as he chewed. The rich spices colluded together- bouncing across his taste buds- giving him a culinary orgasm.

Head hunched over, shoulders gyrating, and jaws barely moving, Nexus' head did not rise for a full minute.

"Guess what I saw today m'lord?"

He barely even looked her way. He was famished- way too famished to be playing mind games now.

". . .I saw Nora Russell. . ."

Forked lightning flashed in Nexus' eyes. Slowly, he arched his head- pausing with the fork in midair;

"You saw who?" he cracked.

"Nora," she shrugged nonchalantly; "But I don't think she saw me though, maybe. . .I'not sure. . .I was kinda moving too fast so I don't know if–"

Nexus' nostrils flared as he cut in abruptly-

"Where did you see her?" he all but shouted it aloud; "Is she alright? Did something happen?"

She sensed his apprehension at once.

"No my lord!"

She leaned forward on the other side of the table- joining both hands, and merging her fingertips;

"I was in town for quite a while- jostling around and buying up stuff. So on my way back, I discovered I was kinda close to the castle. . ."

She paused;

". . .and I thought to myself- thinking how long its been, and what the situation of things currently was. . .

She paused- as a raging silence reigned in the room.

"- so I decided to draw close- eager for any kind of news. . . "

She was jerking his chain- teasing him with the intermittent pauses.

"And that's when I saw her- right there- out in the open of the family's estate. Dishing out orders to a horse drawn cart coming into the compound . . .Well..."
