In the living room of the mansion, many women were standing with various expressions on their faces, going from nervousness and uneasiness.
They all were looking at one woman sitting on the armchair that Austin usually used most of the time whenever he was here in the living room with his wives.
This woman who was sitting on the chair had a long black hair reaching slightly beyond her perky and bubbly round butt, she had a very enchanting red eyes with white pupils, she had an hourglass figure that many would envy and drool for.
She wasn't that tall, only reaching 165cm (Same height as me lol)
This woman or girl because she was still virgin, had a face with furrowed brows, clearly she was annoyed.
"Then, who are you people and what connection do you have with my brother?" Annabelle asked with her right leg crossed on her left one like a queen interrogating some criminals she caught.
After the short stroll around the beautiful garden, Victoria brought Annabelle to the living room where she saw many beautiful and sexy women there. It made her shocked and dumbfounded but at the same time she was confused because she didn't know what these women are doing here in her brother's mansion or what are their identities?
For a second she thought that her brother had made a harem but then remembering his odd and crazy personality, she threw that thought out of the window right away.
'My dear brother can't do that, after all he was crazy and someone like him can't talk with women normally not even seduce them.' She thought like that back then.
But she wanted to know, who are these people?
And that led to this moment where she was right now.
The women who were standing in front of her like some guilty criminals felt uneasy and anxious because the person in front of them was their husband's little sister, a family.
No one responded to her question as they were thinking of how to approach this situation, but then Mi-Kyung Cho stepped forward, taking the lead.
Annabelle looked at Mi-Kyung Cho up and down and somehow she could feel the motherly aura coming out of her, it reminded her of her own mother, giving her a warm feeling.
"And who are you?" But Annabelle didn't want to back down, she still wants to know who is she?
Mi-Kyung Cho smiled at her and said "My name is Mi-Kyung Cho, pleased to meet you." The way she talked was calm and composed that you couldn't recognize any shaking in her tone.
Annabelle raised her eyebrow before she responded "My name is Annabelle Anderson Moore, or just Annabelle Moore. Pleasure." And Annabelle as a polite noble lady, exuded an aura of elegance that made the women around entranced with her.
After all, that was an etiquette she learned when she was young but her brother didn't bother with that as he found it too annoying and rendering him unable to express himself freely.
"Then, could you please tell me what is your connection with my brother? As far as I remember, he didn't have a lover cause he can't deal normally with people including women, he was only focused on his work and science."
"So, how can many women exist here in his house?!" Annabelle's tone was quite sharp and clear to all the women around.
But Mi-Kyung Cho didn't sweat at all, rather, she only smiled with eyes like crescents.
"Well, how can I say this, me and all these women around are sisters."
"Sisters? Like actual sisters or closer than friends like sisters?"
"Not that at all, we are sisters because we are sharing the same man,"
Annabelle's eyes widened and her body flinched, her mind seemed to work at the speed of light to understand what she had just said only to reach one conclusion, although impossible to her but in reality it's possible, after all, there is only one man owing this mansion, no maids or servants from what she saw since entering the mansion. Thinking about the gardener having many wives seems rather unrealistic to her. Like, how he would get this much vitality or money to have them all? Besides, Annabelle remembered something.
Her brother although can't deal normally with people, he was a lady killer, just a simple unconscious gesture from him could captivate a woman like moth to fire.
And these women were the type of women that would be attracted to her brother, especially most of them were his type.
How did she know?
Of course from watching and knowing what he reads and what he watches, after all she was the one who introduced him to the anime world, so naturally she knew his preference.
"Don't tell me—"
"Yes, we are Austin's wives~"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO—wait, did you just say WIVES?!!!!"
"Yes~"
"Wives like....wives?! As a man and woman falling in love and decide to get married?!!!"
"Yes, here." Mi-Kyung Cho extended her left hand and showed her ring that Austin gave her that day when he proposed to them.
"THE FUCK?! WHERE IS HE?"
"He is not here at the moment because of some work, but don't worry, he will come soon."
"..." Annabelle's mind shut down.
'Mother, your son is gone.'

Back to the present.
Austin was now standing in front of his little sister who was staring daggers at him. If stares could kill, he would be killed thousand times by now, like a french cheese with holes.
"Could you explain what you did?"
Hearing that, Austin knew what she meant, after all, seeing his wives here with her indicted that she knew about their relationship.
And Austin knew that she was angry and annoyed from how she was starting at him and the flare of emotions surrounding her, he could see it because of his special eyes.
The only way to calm her down was like that.
Austin pulled her by the waist into his embrace and hugged her while rubbing her hair gently.
"I'm very glad to see you again Anna, I missed you so much you know."
Annabelle who experienced that all of sudden, widened her eyes as she didn't expect that, but with his hands caressing her hair gently she calmed down and felt warmness spreading in her heart, making her clutch on his shirt tightly as if afraid that he would go away.
"Then why didn't you come back? You know that I will feel lonely without you there. Even my mother, I could hear her crying every night in her own bedroom. She is feeling very lonely and tired Austin." Annabelle cried while hugging him while tears streamed from her eyes like waterfall.
Hearing that, Austin felt a bang of sadness wash over him and made him grit his teeth. While he was enjoying his time here in Japan only sending messages from to time, beside going to other worlds and collecting wives, Austin felt like an idiot.
How can he forget them. Although he thought about them every night, but recently, he didn't and was only focusing on his wives instead.
He left his mother and sister there alone.
His wives felt his swirl of emotions, feeling his regret, anger and sadness mixing up together, this made his wives affected and a look of sadness and worry filled their eyes.
They loved their husband, and they didn't like it when he was sad one bit.
"I'm sorry Anna, i'm really sorry. I was an idiot for leaving you alone,"
"Um." Annabelle nodded.
"I was an idiot for leaving our mother to face everything alone without no one to support her."
"You know, she was going to commit suicide at some point, Austin. Her mental state was not good at all." Annabelle complained as she remembered that day, her heart tightened and tears came out more, she was devastated.
BOOM!
Austin's eyes turned to slits immediately as they widened and glowed dangerously when he heard that his mother was going to commit suicide.
An unprecedented anger washed over him as his energy flared for a second before calming down again.
This second was enough to make the women feel how terrifying Austin could be if you made him angry once or tried to know his limits.
It made them unable to breath completely for a second and felt like dying million times.
"Who made her attempt to do it?" Austin asked and Annabelle flinched as she could feel how angry her brother was, making her forget her previous anger, or rather, it disappeared when he hugged her.
Anyway, she looked up at him and saw two glowing blue eyes with slits in them, they were inhuman by all means making her flinch and shudder as they seemed so dangerous and dreadful.
Sensing his sister's fear, Austin immediately calmed down and his eyes returned to their original state like before he caressed her hair affectionately with a smile.
"Sorry for that, Anna, I didn't mean to,"
"Don't worry, I know why you are angry because I was the same before. That day I found mother in the bathroom in the bathtub where the water was all red from the blood that was flowing from her severed veins. But fortunately, she was still breathing so I immediately called the ambulance and sent her to the hospital,"
"Those people pushed her to her limits making her feel so much pressure that she couldn't take and bear. Austin, our mother needs you so much right now." Annabelle said while resting her forehead on his chest as she clutched on his shirt.
"Don't worry, I'm going for her and will make these people pay so much that they will wish they never exist." With a voice filled with deep malice and dread, Austin said his sentence on these people who made his mother go through this.

A/N: Hey, sorry for not uploading these past days, I wasn't in the right mind to do it. I was unstable mentally for some time but managed to work through it.
P.S. Annabelle looks like Rio from Blue Archive btw.
And the story still goes on.
