Chapter 203 201: The Confession
The goddess cursed as she felt resistance from Maria’s end. The oracle had been behaving herself just a few seconds ago. But now she looked like she had some fight still left inside her.
“Darn you. So even this disguise did not work?” the goddess cursed as she pushed more of her life force into the oracle.
She did not want to see her lover’s daughter die like this. Not when she was the only connection left to her love.
“Respond to me. Come on, respond to me.” The goddess desperately tried to wake Maria but the female did not look like she would respond.
But that was not all. The goddess could feel her control over the slipping by the second. That should not have been possible.
And yet, the goddess could feel the start of something emerging inside her body. The feeling felt familiar to her.
‘Get out. You should not be touching her.’ the voice was sweet and polite when it talked. But the goddess felt the anger.
And then she was shoved out of the transient space she had been in. She quickly looked around to confirm where she had ended up at.
Luckily, the hand clenching her own told the goddess that nothing significant had happened. She had just been thrown out of the imaginary space by a higher power.
“Fuck. What should I do now?” the goddess asked as she held Maria’s hand tighter in her own. The oracle was not responding to her.
The goddess tried to get in that space again but it repelled her forcefully. The force was external, not allowing the goddess any time to think on her part.
And the power behind the push felt too much like a node.
“I guess things are getting out of control” the goddess sighed before she continued to channel her energy into Maria.
She had invested too much in the female already to let her go.
…………………………………….
Maria felt the magic around her shift. Neah’s face swam in and out of focus throughout the while.
The hands on her body felt like Neah but Maria could tell that this was not the female she had been acquainted with.
[The user would be wise to appreciate the offered help]
The system was becoming a meddlesome problem. Maria did not want it to interfere any longer.
“Maria. MARIA! WAKE UP” The voice shook.
The tone Neah’s body used changed in a second, and Maria felt her eyes open wide. Blue eyes met her own and Maria felt a jolt of lightning cross her body.
“Neah?” Maria’s tone held the question quality.
The elder smiles a soft but assuring smile. The illusion seemed real enough to even fool Maria’s senses.
“Yes. I am finally here. Well, not physically but the spirit counts, right?” Neah asked. The princess had tears in her eyes as well.
Maria wanted to reach out to her but her hands did not move. She had lost too much energy. All she could do was smile.
“I’m glad to be able to see you again.” Neah’s face looked worried at Maria’s words.
“Don’t talk like you are dying. You are just low on life force. You can take it from me if you need it.” Neah offered.
The princess refused to look Maria in the eyes. Maria tried actively to catch the princess but the elder seemed to not want to see her.
But Maria did notice that Neah was eying her lips with a familiar glint.
Maria had never paid attention to attraction or felt before. She had been naive when she was in Gerna.
But even so, how had Maria missed such a big development? Neah’s eyes spoke volumes about her feelings and the princess had never tried to hide them either.
Or maybe it was Maria who had finally grown up.
“I don’t want to burden you. You love me right?” Maria asked.
Neah looked red in the face. For a second, it certainly looked like she would object to those words. Maria braced herself for the first string of rejection and denial from the princess.
But all she felt was a hand on her face and a gentle press of lips.
“You are right. I am in love with you. So allow me to help you out.” Neah sounded determined in her quest.
Maria had no idea when she had closed her eyes but she finally opened them to face Neah.
The elder looked serious and ready. But Maria could see the nervousness in her actions. It was surprisingly cute of her to behave like that.
“I can’t say if I love you or not. All I can offer you is my body right now. Do you still want to be with me?” Maria asked.
She was well past the point of caring now. She had lost people, her feelings, and even her dignity. She did not mind giving up what was left of her for her only friend.
“No. I don’t want to do things like that. You will be heading for Albest next, right? Find me there on the dragon bridge. We’ll do things then. For now, allow me to help you out.” so this was a rejection?
Maria had never thought that being rejected would feel this good. Neah’s words seemed cruel but Maria could feel the care in them.
And maybe just this once, she wanted to do things the right way. Being courted might not be such a bad feeling after all.
“Neah, come here.” Maria extended her hand. It took considerable effort on her part to even do this. But Maria made sure her expression showed how serious she was.
“You! You surely don’t do things by half.” Neah replied but she did not delay the help.
Lips crashed and bodies mingled with each other. Neah was fast with her hands. Her lips explored Maria’s body.
Maria cried out when the elder played with her nipples. It felt so good to finally have this kind of attention being bestowed on her.
The princess worked her way down Maria’s body. Maria could feel the sensitive touch of those hands near her pussy.
“You’ve done this before, right?” Neah asked. Her face was twisted in a jealous frown which made Maria chuckle. She forcefully pushed her arms to cup the princess’s face.
“Yes, I have. But you seem experienced as well. Now show me what you can do.” for a second, Maria could have sworn she saw the princess pout.
But it was quickly marked up as the princess picked up the pace.
Fingers forced their way inside Maria’s body and the stretch burned. It was her body’s way of reminding Maria that it had been some time since she had last had sex with someone.
“It should be enough. I can’t wait anymore.” Neah did look to be at her limit. Maria extended her hands toward the female and pressed a kiss on the princess’s lips.
Maria focused on that feeling instead of the stretch she was feeling. Neah was neither small nor gentle. She did wait for Maria to adjust fully before she started moving.
"Y-You were supposed to be mine. Why did father think you would be a good fit for my brother? He should have given you to me." Maria cried out as Neah's penis hit her good spot.
The friction felt unreal. It was too much and too little at the same time.
"I didn't know." Maria moaned out those words. The cock was hitting the best spots inside her. It was making Maria lose all her focus.
Neah seemed to not like her answer. The next thrust caused Maria to almost bang her head against the ground. Luckily, Neah held her hand beneath Maria's head to prevent an injury.
"O-Once we meet again, I-I'll officially make you mine. I don't care about your past. Your future is with me." Neah sounded like a woman possessed.
She even fucked as a woman possessed.
But it was too far and hard for Maria to object. Her pussy was being railed into as it had never been before.
Her body felt like it was one fire. Everything burned except the points where Neah was joined with Maria. The luxurious pair of breasts in front of Maria were the only thing she could focus on.
"You like them? Why don't you play with them?" Neah asked as she dragged Maria’s hands towards her breasts. The pair was big enough to not even fit in Maria’s hand. But she squeezed them anyway. And it seemed to be making Neah feel pleasure.
The princess’s rhythm faltered and Maria felt something warm and sticky fill her up. Magic slammed into her core and Maria felt overwhelmed.
She could feel a pair of hands on her face but the magic seemed to be dragging her away.
“Remember. Find me in Albest when you arrive. I will be waiting there for you.” Neah spoke but her words sounded like they were too far away.
Aurora's heart felt heavy when she finally woke up.
"Finally up? It is nice to see that my efforts were not in vain." the goddess spoke but Maria could hear the relief in her tone. It was difficult to see reality from her imagination but Maria had a destination now.
"Who are you? Are you an enemy or a friend? If you are a friend, then can I ask you for a favor?" The goddess narrowed her eyes but her words reassured Maria.
