The sound of soft flesh being repeatedly slapped echoed throughout the room, grunts and groans of pleasure, some muffled by a pillow that was tightly being held on to, some clear.
"Fuck yes… I missed this… You've always been so beautiful and cute, Yaling… I don't know what I would do if you weren't mine" by now, the two of them had been going at it for a while, Tao's libidinous thirst requiring much drinking to be satisfied, but it wasn't the first time that he had been deprived of his beloved, she knew how to handle him by now.
Many years had passed since they had begun their relationship, in fact, it had begun the moment their father had died, he never would have permitted them to indulge in such actions had he been alive, it might be fine for the upper-class people to do it as they were untouchable and had no care for anything below themselves, but to them, people from the low who were trying to make a name for themselves and rise up, this was the sort of thing that could easily ruin your entire family's reputation.
After taking over however, Tao had basically become one of the greatest in his domain in the area, when others had no choice but to respect and fear him, he openly flaunted his relationship with his sister, she was the only woman he cared about, and also the only one that appealed to him in any way, so hiding her would simply feel disgraceful.
He reached forward and grabbed her breasts, which were jiggling under the constant pounding.
"I am coming again-" quickly straightening up, grabbing Yaling's hips and swiftly pulling out, white ropes flying out of him and landing directly on her back.
She rolled over to her side, face beet red after such intense welcomes and from burying her face into the pillow, panting heavily for a few moments, but soon, her eyes looked sad.
"Is something the matter?" Tao caressed Yaling's face, brushing blonde hair out of her face.
"...You didn't finish inside… Again"
"Ah… You know that it's… Not right"
"What we just did is not right either, but we are still doing it! I… I want to have children, I want your children! I love you, but I don't think I can just keep going, your gifts are great, but what I really want is to be the mother of your children! Everytime I see a mother with a baby or children, it just makes me want it more…"
Tao placed her head against his bare chest.
"I understand, but what if- You know, they aren't born right? I heard stories of what can happen when- People of the same blood procreate, I don't want you to be devastated because of that"
"I know…" the two kissed passionately, illuminated by candlelight, but as they were separating, the door of the room opened up, neither slowly nor quickly, it was simply casually pushed, in fact, there wasn't even any sound of the doorknob being turned.
'I definitely closed it properly…' Tao was surprised, but not worried, until a large figure, as dark as a moonless night, went right in, having to bend forward and retract their shoulders to actually fit.
"Nice show, you two- But if I may give my opinion, I am fairly certain that the odds are in your favour unless your ancestors had the same habits as you two, so you should just go for it, what's the worst that can happen? You can make as many children as necessary until you get the one you want, I mean, children are the members of a species with the least value- Well, that's just my humble opinion, I am not an expert, but I do own quite a few diplomas after gutting real experts" Edrick closed the door whilst spouting whatever he wanted.
Then, he just leaned against the door, being nearly impossible to properly see with just a single candle producing light, he simply melded into the background as he stood still, his breathing hidden by the ample clothing he wore.
"Who the hell are you?! Dajian! What the hell are you doing?!" Tao stood up and grabbed a dagger that had been hidden underneath the nightstand.
"If I told you who I was, you would piss yourself, boy- So let's skip that reveal and just get straight to the point… The why"
"Tao, was it? Do you remember a little guy called Shu? Who skitters around like a rat?"
"Shu? Who the hell is that?"
Yaling seemed confused for a few moments as she covered herself using the blanket, but soon seemed to remember.
"Brother Tao… Is that not the name of the one that you threatened to kill for going out with me?"
"Huh? Oh… Oh I remember now, that little piece of shit who dared to lust after my woman! What the hell does that coward have to do with you? As far as I remember, he is hiding in the Myriad-Arm Sect these days, working a little blackmarket to keep himself safe within its walls"
"Ah, you know more than I expected, so you've truly been thinking about murdering him for so long? I honestly thought that he was overreacting and that you completely forgot, but you actually are that obsessed about a little kid holding your sister's hand?" Anoteros shrugged, his voice still not as it normally is.
"I don't blame you for wanting to keep her to yourself though, honestly, I would have done the same thing"
'Shit, where the hell is Dajian? That guy is freaking huge! How could anyone have missed him sneaking in there?!'
Edrick pulled out his rapier.
"Your guard dog might scare off pests by barking, but what good is that if he can't even bite a little?"
"What?"
"Do I really need to just spell it out? I killed him, he is dead, you can scream all you want, no one will hear you"
Tao's face twitched, he gripped the dagger hard, and lunged forward, pretty quickly and decisively, for a mundane person at least.
Edrick thrusted forward, stabbing the little gang leader right through the throat, he twisted his blade, and then pulled it out, and with a small swing, sent the fresh crimson off the blade and across the wall, watching as Tao fell forward, choking and gagging on his own blood.
Unfortunately for Anoteros, when it came to real life, the boss was often weaker than his bodyguard, so he did not get to enjoy a good fight today, he had almost gotten his hopes up for Dajian, and had been sorely disappointed that he was nothing more than a reject with a single trick that was of no help in making him a threat.
He looked over at Yaling, who was struck silent by the scene.
"D-Don't come any closer!"
"Relax, I won't do anything to you, I have something better in mind… Now, don't force me to hit you, I would rather have you in a pristine state"
Anoteros smiled beneath his mask, when he finally walked back over to where he had left his bow and arrows, he carried multiple bags, some filled with foraged food, some with stolen goods, some were his own arrows, which he naturally he had the presence of mind to take back, and one contained a living prisoner.
'This will be good'
