A few minutes ago, a little girl with exquisite rosy pink hair was sitting cross-legged on the ground with her eyes closed.
A few moments later, she slowly opened her eyes with a small smile.
'Yes! I broke through to the sixth level of the Spirit Ethereal Realm. Big Brother Damien should be happy when I tell him.' Valentina was excited, thinking about showing off her breakthrough to Damien right away.
Her soul cultivation also broke through to the Middle Soul Transformation Stage. With the blood essence of two Earth Ethereal Realm cultivators, she successfully broke through many levels.
But she knew Damien must be busy teaching Lily inside the enclosed area in the middle of the inner courtyard. She didn't want to disturb him while he was teaching.
However, she was curious to see him teaching Lily and at the same time wanted to know more about Lily.
She sneaked towards the enclosed area to take a peek but found that she couldn't see, let alone hear anything inside because of the door and the wall surrounding the area.
However, she didn't get discouraged and used her Illusion Laws to make a part of the door illusory, letting her see what's happening inside!
Damien never knew that Valentina possessed this ability as she never told him. Valentina was not able to use this ability before because her cultivation wasn't strong enough.
She was planning to surprise him after her next breakthrough so that she can use her abilities for a longer time and play games with him.
She felt her soul energy was draining fast, but she nevertheless wanted to take a peek. However, her eyes widened when she saw Damien and Lily cuddling on the bed naked.
When her eyes focused on Lily, killing intent flashed in her eyes momentarily but suppressed it immediately before it leaked out.
For some reason, when her eyes landed on Lily, hugging Damien's naked body, she felt like tearing her apart. Still, she controlled her bloodlust as she knew that Lily was someone important to Damien.
She hadn't felt this frustrated in her life, unable to satiate her bloodlust. For the first time, she couldn't take out her anger on someone because the most important person to her was standing in her way.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe could feel nothing but anger and hatred at Lily for taking her place.
Not even she had hugged so intimately with him then how could some other girl take her place?
Her heart writhed, thinking whether Lily would take away her Big Brother. She never imagined that Lily would be closer to Damien than she was with him.
She didn't want to be left alone again and was afraid if Damien would neglect her.
*Skreeeek*
A chill-sending scratching sound sounded out as Valentina scratched the outer walls of the enclosed area Damien and Lily were in.
"I won't let you take Big Brother away…" She mumbled as she intensely stared at the two figures cuddling against each other.
She took her head out and slowly walked back as her blood violently thrashed about inside her body.
Meanwhile, inside the enclosed area, Damien and Lily were sitting up on the bed.
Damien was leaning against the bed's headboard while embracing Lily from behind as she leaned against his chest.
Damien was kissing her smooth shoulders and her neck as he chuckled, "I could keep kissing you all day and never get tired."
Lily's face flushed red hearing his words and seeing his dragon fully erect and vigorous even after those rigorous exercises.
She shyly smiled and said in an embarrassed tone , "You still haven't had enough of me?"
Damien whispered, "How could I when the more I taste you the more I want you. It's your fault for seducing me."
Hearing his sensual words Lily felt hot and said in a coy tone, "You really have the energy for these kinds of things. It's almost noon and we should get going. Valentina might have finished her studies for today already."
Despite wanting to feel him inside her more, Lily was anxious that she wouldn't be able to walk anymore if Damien started another assault on her.
Damien chuckled and said, "Hahaha. Being a merciful master, I will lessen your punishment and let you go."
Damien also thought that he should be getting back and didn't want to tire her too much as it was her first time and the sun was still up. He can't let her walk around the palace limping the whole day.
Lily heaved a sigh of relief but she was also disappointed that she couldn't be with him for a longer time.
Damien cleaned her up with a cloth and they both dressed up quickly.
"Well, let's go introduce you to Valentina." Damien said as he took her hand into his.
As they walked hand in hand, Lily felt a sense of happiness walking while holding hands with her lover.
She felt safe holding his warm and firm hands as if he would never let go of her and be with her forever.
Damien walked out and smiled when he saw Valentina buried in her books.
Valentina's ears twitched the moment Damien came out. Her eyes livened up and rushed towards Damien upon seeing him come out.
"Hey!" Damien chuckled and patted Valentina as she tightly hugged around his waist. Lily was a bit surprised to see that Valentina seemed very affectionate to him.
She couldn't believe that the little girl in front of her was a half ethereal beast and someone adept at Blood Laws. But seeing her exquisite rosy pink hair and ruby red eyes, she knew that Valentina did not seem simple at all.
Valentina was smiling as she snuggled in his warmth, but when she noticed Lily holding his hand, her smile turned into a scowl but quickly hid it.
She looked up at Lily and saw her smiling gently at her. But her fingers were restlessly scratching against each other when she saw Lily's smile.
Lily gently smiled at Valentina, "Hello, Valentina. I am Lily. Damien told me a lot of good things about you. Now that I got a closer look at you, I can see that you are as cute as he said. I thank you for being there for him in the time of need." Lily said sincerely.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLily raised her hand to pat her head, but Valentina shrunk back with a wary look in her eyes. Lily pulled back her hand with an embarrassed smile seeing that Valentina didn't seem to appreciate her gesture.
Damien didn't expect Valentina to be wary of a kind and gentle girl like Lily, especially when he told her that she could trust Lily.
He chuckled awkwardly and said, "I am sorry Lily. It's just that after what happened recently, she does not take well to new faces."
Lily nodded in understanding, "Ah, I see. It's fine, she must have gone through a lot."
Lily looked at Valentina and continued with a warm smile, "Don't worry. Other than Damien, I will also make sure no one can hurt you ever again. Just like how you look up to Damien as your Big Brother, you can consider me as your Big Sister."
Damien patted Valentina and said, "It's okay...other than me Lily is the only person you can put your trust in. Just like she said, you can consider her as your Big Sister. Don't you want a caring and gentle Big Sister like her?"
Valentina's expression didn't change and she buried her face in Damien's clothes without saying anything.
The more kind Lily was with Valentina, the more she hated it. She didn't want anybody or anything else other than being with Damien.
She only saw Lily as her enemy who wanted to take away the most precious thing to her.
But seeing Lily's strikingly beautiful face and comparing it with her face she saw in the mirror, she started feeling insecure. She thought she couldn't match up to Lily and probably why Damien was more intimate with Lily.
Damien gave a helpless smile at Lily and said, "I think we can give her some time to get used to you haha."
"Yes, of course. I don't want to make her uncomfortable." Lily said in a concerned tone, thinking that Valentina was shy.
She then reluctantly took out her hand from Damien's as she said, "I have to leave now. I will see you tomorrow, okay?"
Damien nodded, "Sure, I will see you tomorrow."
The same night in Damien's villa,
"Big Brother Damien...can we sleep together without our clothes?" Valentina asked anxiously.
