Leaving Elkom Territory

 "Ahhn!"

 "Haahn!"

 "Kyaah!"

 Sophia's screams resounded in the room, as she lie down on Ryker's body, breathing heavily, her face a bright red mess.

 "Do you like that?" Ryker said, brushing her brown hair with his hand, "This will not likely be enough but I think it should work as a parting gift," he kissed her deeply, the older woman returning it.

 "Yeah, you are leaving tomorrow," she said with a sad tone. Ryker merely rubbed her back, soothing the older woman.

 He could not believe it as well, but he had spent 8 weeks at the Elkom City. 5 of those 8 weeks were spend with doing it with Sophia's and her group every night, to compensate the fact they will not be able to see each for a long time.

 "Don't worry, we will be fine. Not to mention, as long as we remain inside the Birak Kingdom, it is possible to send a message with communication token," he reminded her.

 "Yes, but I prefer you be with me, but you still have your journey. I wish you didn't and you can stay here," she muttered, lying her head on his chest, hearing his soothing heartbeat.

 "When I am done, I will return here. Maybe I will try to visit when time allow it," he replied, kissing her forehead.

 "Do that," she exclaimed. Sophia then rubbed her belly, "If I am a regular mortal, you will impregnate me during the first night alone,"

 "I don't mind having children, but preferably when I finished my journey and could spend time with them," he said, his hands on her waist, making her coo in affection.

 "Do you think Ilun can join you?" she suddenly asked.

 "I don't mind. She is my lover as well. It just whether you can allow her is the question," he said.

 "What about her consent? Will you not ask for her want as well?" she questioned.

 "Sophia," Ryker said seriously, "If you don't have any big responsibility managing the auction house, you will join us in a heartbeat," she blushed when he pointed it out 

 "Not to mention Ilun, who jumped at me when you gave her the permission," he continued.

 "Now I feel dumb asking that," Sophia exclaimed. "Also I have another request?"

 "What is it?" he asked, hoping it will not be impossible for him.

 "If you find someone like me, someone who love you," Ryker is expecting her to tell him to not accept them, to be honest, considering her stubborn disposition as well as her pride.

 "Please accept their love and allow them be the part of your harem," he coughed slightly at the request.

 "Shouldn't you asked me to not get more sister lover?" he pointed out.

 "Well, I would ask that if someone did not have insane stamina that even with all of your lovers working together we could not even make a dent out of your terrifying stamina," she retorted.

 Ryker smiled sheepishly Sophia continued her rant, "The previous night all of us working together too make you tire, but to our collective surprise, we are the one that will be tired by the end of it with you somehow looking refresh as you pounded me until I am sore down there,"

 It took Ryker another hour to calm Sophia down as he gave her a massage, that lead to another thing as well.

 "So, looks like there will be some important people in this farewell party," the Crown Prince exclaimed, looking at the gathered group.

 He could see the manager of Elkom City Auction House, along with some of her servants. The Duke also there, to his surprise, though he wonder it is because he is the one that leave or because Ryker is the one that leaving.

 The Crown Prince exchanged some more words with the Duke, while Ryker talked with the female manager. In fact, he could see one of the servants by the older woman side is wearing conventional clothing for long travel, instead of the servant outfit she used to wear.

 He wanted to know badly the relation between him and the manager but decided to not do so, not wanting to create a rift over something like that.

 'Looks like they are closer than I thought,' the thought passed through his head as he watched Sophia kissing Ryker on the lips.

 He could here some of his men muttering, "lucky bastard," and to be honest, he completely agree with such statement.

 "We need to move as quickly as possible," one of his guards said. They had been pretending to be a simple merchant caravan who accept some extra people for the cash. After all, their mission is top secret except for the people involve.

 If not, he could have use one of the flying artifact, a flying carriage that will make the travel much faster. Unfortunately, the secrecy made him unable to depend on some of the luxury he has.

 "Don't worry, I will make sure I come out alive," Ryker said, Sophia nodding as she watched the children, along with her fellow sister get inside the carriage, Ilun also following them.

 "He then watched them moving out of the city, his eyes on them even as they slowly reach beyond their perception.

 Inside a large office, a young man listened to the report he was hearing.

 "There is a caravan heading out. We believed it is what he used to transport himself out of this place," he rubbed his chin before sending saying,

 "Make sure they keep following him, and if possible, kill him as well. If there is anyone else who spot the deed, make sure they were silenced as well," the man told the others.

 "Understood," the man then leave the place.

 He stood up before turning his head to where the auction house are, "You should have not try to claim a gem that is not worthy of you weaker status. If not, you will have live longer, and, not in fear.

 "After I kill him Sophia will be mine, and I will make sure to punish those that disagree with the statement," he uttered, his eyes on a locket with a portrait of Sophia's inside.

 "This time, you will be mine,"
