The Third Prince Of Darkness

In the middle of a spacious bedroom, there was an enormous bed, and I clung to Avanne's naked body on the bed. While gently caressing her abdomen with one hand, I inhaled her scent. Despite being sweaty from our recent intense lovemaking, she still smelled wonderful.

She placed her own hand over mine, which was caressing her belly, and tried to calm her still-breathless body. After calming herself, she lifted her naked body and came onto my lap, kissing me on the lips. After a passionate kiss, she pulled back and looked at me with her radiant smile.

"Thank you..." she said.

"For what?"

"For being by my side... And for the beautiful feelings you just made me feel again... and again for everything" she said, resting her head on my shoulder and kissing my neck. I could still feel her rapidly beating heart... and those two enormous, soft mounds... ah, I'm getting hard again.

"I'll always keep you by my side... as long as you don't push me away" I said, stroking her velvet-like black hair. For now, I need to check on little Ethan.

"N-Never! I will never let you go! If you leave me, I'll even start a rebellion against the kingdom! S-so it would be good if you don't leave me" she said with a flushed face but with eyes shining with determination.

I smiled at her and continued to stroke her hair. "Don't worry, I won't leave you" I said.

Avanne took a deep breath while looking into my eyes and slowly released my arms, getting out of bed. The room was beginning to be illuminated by the first light of the morning, and the light falling on her body made it feel as if I were gazing at a goddess. I couldn't take my eyes off her. Her breasts were so large that they got lost in my hands, and now, standing upright as if challenging Newton, they made my little dragon below wake up again.

"I'll check if the bathroom is ready" she said, turning her back to me and heading towards the bathroom door after putting on her nightgown. But even then, her large, rounded hips, which swayed even while walking, were visible through the thin fabric. After she entered the bathroom, I also got up, put on the delicate clothes made for the night, and then went to the bathroom.

At that moment, I silently stared at the scene before me in shock. Avanne, bent over the bathtub to check the water, stood with all her grandeur. As her full backside faced me, my feet moved involuntarily, and I tightly gripped Avanne's waist, who was bending over to check the water. She flinched for a moment, but when she saw my firm hands holding her, she turned to me with a surprised expression.

"E-Ethan, what are you doing?"

Without saying anything, I removed my lower garment, pulled Avanne's nightgown, which was already down to her thighs, up to her waist, and entered her in one movement without saying a word.

"... Ahhh! Ethan, slow down."

"I'm sorry, but I couldn't control myself in the face of this scene" I said, moving my hands towards her breasts.

"Muu~ you can't do this too much," she said with a seductive voice, but as I began to penetrate her brutally, the only thing escaping her lips was sexy moans. After that, I changed positions multiple times and made love to her in different ways, eventually finishing in the bathtub filled with cold water.

a hour later, we left the bathroom, filled with the scent of our passionate sex, and went back to the bedroom. I started putting on my clothes. After getting dressed and helping Avanne get dressed as well, I received another sweet kiss from her.

"Are you going to the palace?" she asked.

"Yes."

"How long will I have to wait you?" she asked with a hint of sadness.

"I don't know, but I'll come to you when I find the time."

"Okay..."

After putting on my clothes and fastening my sword at my belt, I looked back at Avanne once more. Seeing the sadness in her eyes made my heart ache, but unfortunately, I had to go. There were tasks awaiting me at the palace. I didn’t want to leave her side, but I had responsibilities.

"I'll try to visit you as soon as possible" I said, smiling once more to reassure her.

"Okay," she murmured, her voice trembling slightly. "I'll wait for you."

After giving her one last kiss on the lips, I headed toward the door. Before leaving the mansion I designed, I walked to a hidden room without dyeing my hair and went through the tunnel I had created, heading toward the palace. The location of this mansion was right above the tunnel I had secretly built for entering and exiting the palace. Moreover, it was easy to acquire this land since it was far from the city center and the nearest neighborhood was a poor one. Thus, I could build a mansion here without attracting too much attention. Isabella had been the most significant help in acquiring this land.

As time passed, I made sure to expand the tunnel a bit more each time I used it, and eventually, I extended it enough to walk through without bending over, though it was still too narrow to fully open my arms. Well, there wasn’t really a need for that. As I progressed slowly through the tunnel, I didn't forget to create a small fireball with my hand to provide a source of light in the dark tunnel.

Interestingly, whenever I walked through this tunnel, a sense of peace would envelop me, and my thoughts would clear. It felt like a weight had been lifted. I even felt more at peace when I extinguished the fire in my hand and was enveloped in complete darkness.

After walking for a while, I finally emerged from the tunnel with little difficulty... now that I think about it, whenever I exited this tunnel, Emilia would be there to greet me.

Ah... Anyway, now I needed to quickly leave the palace without being noticed by the concubines. After stepping outside, I walked toward the main palace and noticed a few women chatting and drinking tea in the garden from a distance.

These were Richard’s concubines, and as I looked at the children playing in the garden, I wondered how many siblings I had. Fortunately, the concubines' children they couldn't claim to the throne, but they would probably have a more peaceful life than princes and princesses.

Still, I couldn’t help but feel some envious and admiring glances directed at me. Ignoring these looks, I continued walking toward the main palace. After walking for a while, I finally reached the main palace, went to my room, and quickly changed out of my soiled clothes.

As I stepped out and was about to head toward Roxanne’s room, I heard a sweet and affectionate voice calling my name from behind. It was my mother, Luciana’s voice. I turned around to see her coming toward me quickly, puffing out her cheeks like a child. Her long white hair was flowing in the wind as she ran.

"Mother? Is something wrong?" I asked.

After getting closer, she made a fist with her hands but looked at me sternly. "Bow your head!" she shouted.

I guess I had grown too tall for her to hit my head. Following her instruction, I lowered my head, and she tapped it lightly with her hand.

"Ahg. What was that for, Mother?" I asked, rubbing the spot she hit.

"Are you asking why? You haven’t even visited me for two weeks! And now, even though you just arrived at the palace, you were about to go somewhere else!" she said, folding her arms and frowning.

"Hahaha, I feel like the parent here," I said, laughing.

"Do you want another one?"

"Hahaha, no, no, I’m sorry," I said, pulling her into a tight hug. "You’re right. No matter what excuse I make, I should still make time to visit my mother"I said.

"Yes, you finally understand!"

After parting from her, I looked at her face, now not so angry. "Are you here just to scold me?" I asked.

"Isn’t that a sufficient reason? It’s enough reason to teach my foolish son a lesson, but you’re right, there’s another reason" she said, starting to walk ahead.

As I followed her, I asked, "So, are you going to tell me?"

"Yes. In a few months, your sister’s wedding ceremony will take place" she said and left me in shock.

“What? Which one is getting married?” I asked.

My mother turned to me, looking surprised. “Don’t tell me you don’t know. Fiona's eldest daughter Umala will marry the second prince of the Tamerid empire." she said.

For a moment, I felt a sense of relief for reasons I didn’t understand, but then that feeling quickly vanished when I heard who Umala was marrying.
