*Bam!*

Right now, at this very moment, Blake had his back up against the wall as a long slender white arm slammed into the wall next to his head. In front of him, a petite girl was staring back at him with narrowed eyes. "Tell me everything! What did that slu-woman make you do!"

As soon as Blake came back, Lillia began her interrogation, sniffing and licking every part of Blake's body that did not smell like him. Blake really did not know what to say as he let her do her thing. But he did not expect to be pinned against the wall before he could say a word though.

"I just massaged her feet and legs and had some small talk. She was actually quite nice to me this time. She even gave me a bit of hopeful news." Blake explained, causing Lillia to furrow her brow and step back from Blake.

"Then what did she say?" Lillia asked with her arms crossed across her chest.

"She said that people have come to this place before who were not able to take in astral energy naturally and were able to grow in power. This means we can take in astral energy, but we need to figure out how to do it. Also, she said that we could get back home as long as we reached the strength of one of her guards. I know this is a bit of a hurdle but at least we know it is possible to make it back." Blake was truly hopeful. He knew that Ishtar could have been just giving him false hope. But at least any hope at all was better than none.

"Hmmm….." Lillia lowered her head before suddenly jumping up and latching herself onto Blake. "Bedroom now!"

Luckily the girls were in the other room, or this scene would have caused the small girls to be confused as to what was going on. Blake did as he was told and brought Lillia to the bedroom, where she immediately sealed the room from everything and ripped Blake's clothes off his body, not caring about anything other than painting his body with her scent.

Ishtar did not know how she felt. Blake's wife seemed a bit on the jealous side. While she did not seem to mind this, she wondered if Lillia would ever accept her. When this thought came to mind, Ishtar's eyes went wide as she slapped her cheeks. "Get a hold of yourself! We are only using him…."

When the servant girls saw their Goddess slapping herself in the face, they did not know what to think. They all lowered their heads, not daring to look up in case it was them who would be slapped next.

You can say that Lillia really picked off more than she could chew. She wanted to paint Blake in her color only to be painted in his. While she did last a while, she ended up under his relentless assault for the entire night, causing her to sleep half the day the next day.

Around mid morning the next day, Blake called his daughters to come outside to get some fresh air. Since the barrier was up, he planned to at least let his daughters play outside for a while. They played tag and red light green light, and many other games that Blake and Tina had taught them from their younger years. The two girls were smiling happily as they played with their Papa, but as the hours passed, both Destiny and Joy sat on their papa's lap with depressed expressions on their faces.

"What's wrong?" Blake asked.

"Papa, will we be able to go home soon? Will we be able to go home and see our other mamas and sisters? Did I cause us to be stuck here?" Joy began to tear up.

Blake smiled softly as he placed his hand on top of her head. "It was not your fault. What happened was an accident that even your papa does not understand. But I do know one thing… We will get home. I promise you. When that will be, I do not know. But I promise I will make sure you can go home and see your sisters and mamas. This is something I will never lie to you about."

Joy, who had tears in her eyes, buried her face in Blake's chest while Destiny also did the same. Blake looked at his two daughters, who were growing up so fast, and sighed. He sat there looking out over the grassy field and patted their heads until they fell asleep.

Ishtar watched everything from her palace. Her expression changed many times as she wiped her eyes. "Should I help him just a bit next time we meet?" This thought suddenly filled her mind. She felt bad for those children reminding her of Nanaya when she was young. "If he does not figure it out, I will give him a hint." She finally decided. Even if he were to start taking in astral energy now, he would still need a long time before he could gain the strength needed to go home. It would give her time….

"Give me time for what…." Ishtar's cheeks began to turn red as she realized her own thoughts. She was actually thinking about making Blake her man!? "Why is my mind a mess!? Why do I keep watching his every action!?"

Ishtar really wanted to control the emotions welling up inside her. She knew she was doing the same thing she had done to Gilgamesh and was afraid that she might end up in the same situation where she would be rejected harshly. She did not know if she could take such a blow again. But as the goddess of love she knew, she knew what was happening to her. The more she watched, the more she found Blake to be appealing in her eyes. She suddenly realized her daughter really had good eyes…..
