Dragon King's Harem Chapter 169. Before The War I

After breakfast came, I woke my wives up. It took a while to open their eyes. No, not because they were still weak due to last night's sex play, but because they still wanted to snuggle with me. They hugged me, pulled me onto the bed, kissed me, and touched my body. Their mouths let out a sweet seduction, begging me to stay a little longer with them. And I couldn't say no.

I was leaving for Firestone Fortress and would be staying there for a while. I was sure they would miss me, except Evelina. Since she would come with me.

Still, even though she was with me, we couldn't possibly do it in the middle of a battlefield. I couldn't possibly have fun and set a bad example for my soldiers when the enemy was in front of us. So yeah, I granted their wishes.

Unfortunately, my stomach couldn't lie, especially after last night's play and the food smell that stimulated my appetite. Upon my stomach's grumble, finally, all of us got out of bed and went to my dining table. We sat down and started enjoying our breakfast with a night robe covering our bodies.

Every now and then, we chatted about last night. But Marissa was the one who dominated today's topic of conversation. My other wives were quite surprised by her sudden appearance and were happy since she wanted to join them. It shocked them. Like me, they also realized Marissa had no feelings for me. That was the most difficult thing for a woman where she had to give up her life in a relationship that was only based on interests, not feelings.

Without feelings, without enough trust, without a solid reason to stay, a small problem could turn her heart sour. Because no matter how cruel Igixar was, even though this world was no different from the animal kingdom, every creature expected a close relationship in their marriage. No one, man or woman wanted to get married just to end up being a sex object. This was the reason why my other wives commended her courage. So did I. Even if the feelings between us were not deep, I hoped I could deepen it in the future.

It was a tasty breakfast and rather than heavy meals, most of them were easily digestible soups. Even though it wasn't a fulfilling one since lunch was near, I knew all of them were foods that were highly nutritious and suitable for replenishing the energy and fluids that had been lost a lot from our bodies. Well, I couldn't expect any less from Sarah.

After that, we went to take a bath together. I also opened a few windows before I left my chamber. I was sure my cum smell would torture Sarah and the maids who cleaned up my chamber. But what could I do? I couldn't control myself. I was sure this was good news for them anyway.

The bath itself was another pleasure play for me. Even though we didn't have intercourse, they scrubbed my body, touched it, massaged it, and cleaned it thoroughly. From my body, my groin, my hair, my tail, and my horns. This time they even asked permission to clean my wings. It was a nice relaxation and I really liked it.

The relaxing bath ended. We returned to our rooms and put on our formal attire for the last lunch with Arter. When I arrived at the dining hall and caught Arter's grumpy face, I was ready for all the complaints he was going to tell me. I could even catch black shadows under his eyes indicating he was not sleeping properly.

After a bit of small talk as a sign it was a small farewell party for Arter, we started eating. But when we were in the middle of it, Arter started to make his voice.
“Please pardon my rudeness, Your Majesty. May I ask about last night's roar? I know it's a bit private but I hope you don't mind it," said Arter politely. Yet his traces of annoyance were evident in his tone.

"Go ahead," I said. I already predicted this. Moreover, Eir had said that Arter had complained since this morning.

“Is the royal dragon--- I mean, you, will always roar every time you do it? I mean, it was too loud. Wouldn't that tell your enemy your state? That you are mating. Wouldn't that put you in danger?" asked Arter in a serious tone. His curiosity was evident from the tone of his voice. I could understand that since if I wasn't a dragon, I'd think it was stupid. With fixed mating hours and days, it was tantamount to letting my enemies know when to attack.

I chuckled at his question. But a moment later, I stopped my laughter.
"Pardon me." I cleared my throat.

“Believe me, attacking me in such a state is the same as suicide. Under such influence, I was much stronger, selfish, and impatient. I don't like other males approaching me or my wives. Everyone who does it will die. And for the females. Whoever approaches me, I will assume she is giving herself up to me. Whoever it is." So whoever approached me when I was under the full moon influence would either end up dead or be my wife. What was certain was that I couldn't give a proper death for the male one or a proper sex play for the female one. So assassinating me at times like that was a very, very bad idea.

“So the roar is some kind of warning?” he assumed. His brows furrowed in confusion.

"Yes and no," I replied. “It is a warning and a calling to be exact. So it's meant to be loud. That's my way of announcing that I'm doing it. An invitation and a warning," I explained.

"I see..." he mumbled. Yet his confusion was still evident on his face.

I cut the meat on my plate and poked it with my fork before I brought it to my mouth. In that silence, secretly, I glanced at Arter and realized his confusion was getting clearer. I bet he would be asking me another question soon and I was right.

“Pardon me, Your Majesty. One more question," he asked.

"Go ahead."

“What if your enemy attacks the capital when you are in such a state? Can you fight them?” he asked.
