The Incubus System Chapter 286. The Right to Choose Their Own Path
About half an hour later, our car stopped in front of a tall building with a modern design mixed with a bit of an antique touch. The building's colour was dominated by beige and brown. The warm colour of light came out of the windows on every floor in the building. A modern 'Golden Crescent Hotel' signboard in bright lights was at the top of that luxury hotel.
Quickly, a man in a neat tuxedo opened the car door. As we got out of the car, the others greeted us.
"Good evening, Mr Ethan, Miss Celia. Miss Pearl has been waiting for you. Please follow me." He gestured politely.
The automatic door opened. Our feet stepped into that luxurious hotel's lobby, followed by the man. I kept my composure as my eyes swept around the lobby interior. With walls dominated by beige and gold colours, as well as beautiful crystal chandeliers. Coupled with the dark marble below us that created the click-clack sound every time we took a step and the baroque style furniture that dominated the place, the elegant impression of that room was so intense. A large reception desk with two lovely receptionists smiling at us as we passed them, in the side of that room.
"Brother..." Celia whispered. Her hand grabbed mine and held it tightly. This place indeed intimidated her. Moreover, she had never been in a place as luxurious as this before. Even when dad was still alive.
"It's okay," I replied in a low voice. I tightened my grip to soothe her.
We got into an elevator and went up to the 10th floor. As we got out, two other hotel staff were already waiting for us.
"Good evening, Miss Celia. Miss Yuffy and Luna are waiting for you. Please follow me to the dressing room."
"Can my brother come with me?" said Celia in objection.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I'm sorry, miss. But Mr Ethan has to go to another room to prepare himself. Miss Pearl has also prepared a special suit for him," replied the hotel staff.
"Another suit?" I said with a frown. Pearl already knew about my Demon's clothes skill. If I needed to wear a certain outfit, she could send me the pic and I could imitate it in an instant.
"Celia." Footsteps accompanied by a familiar female voice approached us. As soon as we turned to the source of the voice, our sight caught Foxy approaching us in a hurry. She hid her tails and ears with her shape-shifting skill to avoid suspicion. Even though light makeup adorned her face, she still wore her casual clothes.
"Foxy." Celia's face brightened upon seeing her.
Foxy grabbed Celia's other hand and smiled.
"Come with me. We have prepared your dress," she said in excitement. I realized she was using the emphasis tone on the word 'dress' so I assumed they would give her a sexy dress that would make my jaw drop.
"Okay," said Celia. She turned to me and released her hand from me.
"See you later, brother."
After I answered me with a nod, she left with Foxy.
"Please follow us, Mr Ethan," said the other staff.
I followed him through a smaller hall to the corridor and stopped in front of a room. The staff opened the door for me.
"At last, our man has arrived." Pearl's voice greeted my ears as soon as I entered that simple waiting room which was only filled with a few sofas with a coffee table. A carpet covered the floor with a long table containing various snacks and drinks on the side of the room. A partition covered a mirror and a table on the other side of the room.
Pearl, Emma, Olivia, Camila who sat on the sofa greeted me with a smile. The small plates containing the snack crumbs and the empty cups on the table showed they had been waiting for me for a long time, but what surprised me was Diamond. I didn't expect her to join Pearl so soon after she discovered my identity and decided to become my loyal partner this afternoon. It was the first time I seduced my woman after I exposed myself.
"Did I make you guys wait too long?" I walked over to them and sat on the single sofa.
"It's okay. Besides, it gives us plenty of time to explain things to Miss Diamond," Emma replied in a relaxed tone. Their clothes were a little weird. Since, even though they were already dressed up, styling their hair and wearing heels, they only used a night robe to cover their bodies.
"Since you asked me to come here. I assume you want to ask me some important things, am I right?" I guessed. This was why they asked Foxy and my servants to accompany Celia. As for my suit, it never existed in the first place. That was just an excuse since they wanted to ask me some important questions and I guessed this had something to do with my identity and the battle two weeks ago.
"You're right," Olivia said.
"I know you explained everything in the lab, but we wanted to ask you a few questions since we can think more clearly now." The tone of her voice showed how serious she was.
"Go ahead. I'm not interested in hiding anything from all of you anymore," I said in a calm tone. They were willing to make a contract with me so I also would give my sincerity.
"Can I ask about the maid?" Camila started her question. Her hesitation was clear from her tone and expression.
"What do you want to ask about her?" This question was quite strange since she should have asked Maria instead of me.
"I know you can brainwash other people. But... Why don't you manipulate her to make her fall in love with you? Wouldn't that make her happy?" It was a sensitive topic, so she said it very carefully. It seemed that Camila was thinking of making the maid my partner to heal her heart wounds. Actually, I didn't mind. The problem was, I didn't want to use dirty methods like that to make a woman my partner or servant. Because it was no different from ****. It was against her will and I didn't want it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Then what's the difference between me and that incubus?" I answered her question with another question in a calm tone. Of course, who I meant was Zael, Myra's lover. Stupid? Maybe. I realized how far my capabilities were. But I didn't want to use my power irresponsibly. This wasn't an RPG game where the people around me were just NPCs and I was the only one who lived. They were like me, had thoughts, personalities and feelings. If I didn't want other people to do that to me, then I wouldn't do that to them either.
"Isn't it because she was a **** victim? Or is it because she has been touched by another demon?" Again, Camila asked with caution.
I shook my head from side to side.
"It doesn't matter to me. I just don't want someone to serve me because of my skill and give me fake love. I want a genuine one. The one that comes from their heart. If she loves me then I will accept it. If she doesn't, I don't want her doing it as payback either. She has the right to live the life she wants. Besides, with her bad experiences, sex will be something painful for her until she fully recovers from her trauma."
I could catch a hint of disappointment on Camila's face.
"I understand. Thank you for explaining it to us."
"Why do you look dissatisfied with my answer?" I asked.
Camila shook her head from side to side slowly and smiled.
"You've made a good point and everything you said is right. It's just my ego that makes me think that as long as she gets her happiness, then it will be fine." Her gaze turned a bit gloomy as did the tone of her voice.
"I forgot... Everyone has the right to choose their own path. Good or bad... It's their choice to live. I think my marriage's bitter experiences make me think happiness is a great gift for every human being." A bitter smile appeared on her face.
"But I was wrong. The important thing is that we can live the life we choose. Thank you for reminding me."
