Chapter 14: Harem Rules

James stirred from a restful slumber, greeted by a sense of rejuvenation that permeated his being. His gaze shifted to Lois, who lay beside him in peaceful repose. He thought about Lois, the badass woman who had perfect accuracy. Just yesterday, she was a depressed housewife and now she is sleeping with a man in another world. He saw her long red hair, it suited her for sure. It gave her a more youthful vibe. He thought of allowing her to sleep in today, it had been a long day yesterday. 

He got up and slowly walked to get his clothes from the floor. He put them on for now. James noticed the door was slightly open. He thought they had closed it as they got in.

James exited the room into the hallway. He could hear the sounds of sobbing coming from the kitchen. He thought that could be Lefi, did she see them last night, he thought. Lois was not very quiet. He walked to the kitchen and entered. There he saw Lefi sitting by herself on the table. He could see a single tear running down her cheek.

James approached Lefi with a measured and comforting presence, his voice carrying an assuring tone. "Lefi," he said.

Lefi, her eyes betraying the emotional turmoil within, glanced at James with a hint of exhaustion. "Go away," she uttered, a plea laced with a mixture of pain and a desire for solitude.

Determined and unwavering, James refused to heed her request. "I will not leave you, not in this state," he declared and hugged her. 

Caught off guard by the unexpected warmth of his hug, Lefi hesitated. For a fleeting moment, the embrace felt like a sanctuary, a haven from the storm raging within her.

"Thou will leave me," Lefi murmured. The thought of being abandoned lingered in her mind.

"No, I will not leave you," James stated. He knew that Lefi had been alone. Despite being able to command dragons at her will and having the title as Queen of Dragons, she did not have anyone to talk to her.

Lefi thought the hug felt nice. She liked his arm around her. She leaned back into his body and rested. His smell was unique for sure. However, she thought he had someone. "Thou?" Lefi asked. 

James turned around and kissed her on the lips. James felt her small cute lips. 

Lefi was surprised by this action. She felt his lips on hers. Her mind went crazy. She started to blush. Her heart beat increased. She thought this was embarrassing, however she thought it was right. She felt calm after a while. All her worries were gone. His lips felt nice. 

James slowly withdrew. "You talk and worry too much sometimes. I will be with you, in your heart," James stated. 

"You," Lefi replied with a smile on her lips. She looked up to James and smiled. She thought perhaps he was right. 

Lois cleared her throat. "My my, being so bold at the kitchen table," Lois remarked. She was wearing her clothes from yesterday and had a wide grin on her face. 

James and Lefi looked with their mouths open. They saw Lois looking at them. She did not seem mad.Lefi poised herself to speak, but before she could utter a word, Lois interjected. "Don't apologise. I'm not upset; I can see you have feelings for him," Lois stated.

She smiled and walked towards them. "James has been talking about a harem, since yesterday, I knew sooner or later he would make a move," Lois commented. 

"So, he is a pervert and womaniser," Lefi said.

"Correct," Lois replied. She smiled and sat down on the table. 

"Thou would have more women in his life then," Lefi remarked.

"There would be but I can tell, he won't abandoned them, he will treasure them and keep them happy," Lois said. She felt a warm feeling from her heart. She knew James was not a bad person. 

"So thou need to make sure he does not hurt anyone, and be open and thou make sure we have a plan," Lefi said.

"Yes, so tonight you can be with him," Lois replied. 

"Thou sure?" Lefi asked. She knew it was a big decision to share someone they care about. However, she felt Lois was being genuine. They both smiled at each other and nodded.

James was not sure what was going on however things have worked out. This could have ended badly. He wondered if there was a hidden gift the Goddess gave him. He thanked the Goddess if that was the case and blessed him. 

"You will always have someone with you Lefi, I will be there as well," James stated.

"Nice and romantique," Lois teased. 

"But there should be some ground rules. Me and Lefi will talk about it, why don't you go and see if you can make us a bath?" Lois asked.

Lefi thought bath, she wondered what that was. 

James thought she was serious. He thought it may not be best to push his luck too much. "Okay, I love you both," James said as he walked out. Lefi's heart skipped a beat, hearing those words. Lois smiled at her. 

James walked down to the Third Floor. He opened the door and was greeted by various perk jingles. He thought that could get annoying. There was no space for them anywhere for now. He walked to the tablet. He clicked on the Food tab. He scrolled down and saw English Breakfast. 

James then checked his points. He saw the number increase by a significant amount. He thought that it could be because of Lefi but no he looked up and saw the perk machines. James shrugged it off for him, the points gave him freedom to build a multiple floor dungeon each unique to the worlds he will visit soon. For the adventure and girls but mainly the adventure, he thought. 

He clicked on three English Breakfast and a box of cookies. In front of him, there was a large tray with three plates. Each plate was covered with a lid. There was a packet of biscuits next to the plates. 

James clicked on the Housing tab. He clicked on the Second Floor and brought another room and a small shower room for now. He was going to make it more grand and extensive soon by adding a floor. However, for now, he had other plans. The Ultimatrix needs to have the Master Control. Also, there is a chance of the aliens having their own personalities and consciousness. He did not want that to happen. 

He clicked on the Item tab and saw there was clothing. He brought a blue sleeveless shirt for himself and a white loosely fitted pants. He then brought a white dress for Lefi. He thought she would get tired wearing his shirt. Then he brought an outfit consisting of a pink crop top with gold trim, revealing her midriff, and matching harem pants that are loose-fitting and adorned with gold details, for Lois. 

The clothes appeared on the ground. He picked them up. James walked back with the clothes and food. He got to the Second Floor and walked towards the kitchen. He could hear giggling. James opened the door and saw the two girls talking to each other and smiling. 

"I have some clothes and food for you ladies," James announced. 

The girls smiled and looked at him. "Thou good, James, please sit down," Lefi said.

"We have something important to talk about," Lois said. 

James put the clothes and tray on the table. He sat down in the middle of Lefi and Lois. He took a deep breath. 

"We accepted that you will have a harem and it will grow," Lois started off. 

"Thou will support you but there will be rules," Lefi added. 

James thought rules. He wondered what it could be. He thought he needed freedom. 

"Okay," James said. He looked nervous. 

Lois explained, "The rules are the following: 

All harem members to be treated equally

All new members will have to approved by everyone

No males, this is a safe place for your harem and only yours.

You must give us all one child each

No sex outside harem members

Harem members may not always want to participate in different types of sex so you must respect that

Harem members exist for your pleasure. "
