My Servant System

Chapter 219 218: Apology



When we returned to the cottage, my new outfits in hand, we entered to find Anput and Leone standing around, the Vampire frowning slightly as she stared at the Jackalkin.

Anput was shrouded in an upset aura, her ears drooping and her tail pressed against her legs.

When she heard the door open, her ears perked up slightly, her obsidian eyes glimmering with tears as she rushed forwards.

Launching herself into my arms, she clung desperately to me, her lithe body trembling slightly in my embrace.

Sliding one arm around her waist and another behind her head, I pulled her closer and held her, a frown on my face as I glanced at Leone, wondering what had happened.

However, the Vampire could only shrug, her tired expression making me a little more confused as she walked over to Jahi, leaning against the equally confused Demoness.

Hearing Anput start to sob quietly, I gently started walking her to her room, the Jackalkin stuck to my side like glue.

Jahi led Leone into our room, the worry on her face evident as she watched me lead Anput away.

Opening Anput's door, I carefully navigated my way to her bed, sitting her down beside me.

Her sobs were still silent, and her trembling had remained consistent, not even reducing as I started stroking her hair in an effort to calm her down.

It was moments like this that made me realize that, while we all may mature quicker, the others simply didn't have the experiences necessary to deal with everything as easily as they should.

They still only had roughly seven or eight years of life despite their fully grown bodies.

And, most likely, none had ever truly had a 'friend' or someone that they got into a real, meaningful argument with.

Which, as that entered my mind, I realized how twisted this was; they had already shed blood, killed, witnessed death, but had never had an argument with someone...

Sighing, I continued to hold her in my arms, waiting for her to eventually calm down.

There was no need for me to speak without truly knowing what part of our argument bothered her; I could make assumptions, but if I made the wrong one, it made calming her and getting her back on track much harder.

So, I buried her face into my breasts and let her cry, her quiet sobbing sending small needles to pierce my heart with each tremble of her body.

Laying my face between her ears, I breathed evenly, hoping the rhythm from not only the stroking but also my breathing might help ease her nerves.

Since I was still in my leather armor, I couldn't tell how many tears she had shed, but her sobbing remained even after another half minute.

The citrus scent wafting from her body seemed to be amplified by her emotions, and the longer I held the sobbing woman, the harder it was becoming to not slip into heat.

Her scent was permeating my nostrils, until it was the only thing I could smell; it was slowly drifting into my mind as well, sweeping away all my other thoughts and my willpower with each passing second.

However, I held on, even as I felt my lower lips grow moist from such direct contact with my mate, holding back the heat as much as I could so that I could truly help her.

My lust was secondary to her emotional well-being, after all.

"Anput, what's wrong..?"

Sadly, that willpower was fading slowly but surely, meaning I needed to expedite this discussion before I just-

Shaking my head slightly, I watched as she glanced up at me, her puffy eyes wet with tears as she sniffled.

The confident, arrogant Jackalkin warrior was no where to be seen; instead, a small, frail pup was left in her place, staring up at me with those deep obsidian eyes.

"I... I..."

Her voice was shaky, and she sniffled again before she spoke again, her voice barely a whisper.

"I d-disrespected you... y-your ideals a-and b-beliefs... I-I'm a f-failure of a m-mate..."

Listening to her explanation, I frowned as I shook my head, gently and warmly saying "You're not a failure, Anput! You're anythi-"

"But I am!"

She cut me off, her eyes wide as she stared up at me, leaking tears.

"M-Mate's are s-supposed to r-resepect one another w-whole heartedly, t-to trust in t-their chosen partner! B-But I d-didn't! I-"

Leaning forwards, I cut her off this time by sealing her lips with mine, deciding this was the best course of action for both of us.

Her taste would satiate my urges for the moment, and the surprise should help calm her slightly.

Coiling my tongue around hers, I greedily gulped down her saliva as we kissed, before I released her tongue and licked her lips.

Pulling away, I watched as she panted, her lips still parted as she stared at me, her eyes unfocused.

Reaching up, I cupped her cheeks and pinched slightly, whispering "I don't know anything about Beastkin culture, Anput; I was raised by a Demoness and an Elf, while my Mother never seemed to care for Beastkin customs. So I'm ignorant on that front, but..."

Wiping away her tears, I smiled warmly at her, watching as her anxiety slowly melted away.

"I do know relationships between people. At least, based on the one between Jahi and I. Now, it's between Jahi, Leone, and you as well. And what I know is that we won't always see eye to eye, Anput. There will always be a difference in opinion, be it something small like whether beef or pork is better, to something important like my personal desires.

That difference is okay, dear. It shows that we are our own people, and as long as there is still respect and love between us, at the fundamentals of our relationship, then it's fine to have a disagreement on beliefs or wants.

I understand why you, Jahi, and Leone might be upset by my choices; I really do. However, they are MY choices. I make them for YOU. Even if you yourself dislike them, that's fine. You yelling at me, to argue your side? I don't care too much; as long as you never get physical, or revert to how... manipulative you used to be, I won't care.

If we agreed on every little thing about life, wouldn't that be boring? Just because you argued with me doesn't mean you disrespected me; it showed that you cared enough to get worked up because of me; for me. On my behalf. It's touching. So don't cry, and don't call yourself a failure, Anput. That is one thing you aren't, one thing you never will be. You're a confident, talented, and incredible woman. A woman that I love. A woman that is, luckily, my mate."

Staring into her eyes, I watched as she calmed down with each passing moment, each word easing her turbulent emotions.

When I finished, I smiled down at her as I returned for another kiss, keeping this one brief.

"Are you finally calm again? Thinking rationally?"

She nodded slightly, her cheeks darkening with embarrassment as she returned her face to my chest.

However, her ears were flickering again, and her tail was no longer pressed against her legs; now, it wagged slightly as she squeezed her arms around me.

Besides that...

Gritting my teeth, I felt my head grow numb as her scent doubled in potency, her pheromones filling the room with ease.

My cheeks flushed, and I felt my lower lips grow drenched, wanting to accept her member so that we could breed.

Evidently, she wasn't the only one outputting pheromones, as she glanced up to me with heated eyes, whispering "You..."

Gulping, I watched as she pushed me back onto the bed, her face close to mine as she extended her tongue.

Meeting hers, I moaned softly as her citrus taste snapped the dam that had built inside me, bth of us shivering as the other fed off the output pheromones.

Pulling away, she panted as she stared at me, her eyes shifting to silver as she pulled her thin nightshirt off her torso, revealing her fit body and perky breasts.

Then her hands fell to my body, swiftly and clumsily dragging my leather armor off of my chest, her breathing hitching as my bare breasts entered her gaze.

We both gulped, admiring our mate's body with heated gazes, realizing how lucky we were.

Anput had that muscular figure that I found so attractive; her petite curves only made her muscles stand out that much more.

While not as chiseled as Jahi, Anput was more of a lean fit, her toned abdomen and obliques making me hotter, while her slim, yet strong arms pinned me to the bed with ease.

Her dark black hair fell around us, creating a sort of veil that shrouded everything else from our sight.

The only thing we could see was each other, and her needy expression made my insides tingle with such a strong desire.
