Immortal Ice Empress: Path to Vengeance

After a good night's sleep, Mira woke up feeling refreshed. Although she's usually not one who likes to waste time sleeping, Mira felt glad that she decided to sleep with Maria last night. She probably still won't sleep every night despite how comfortable it is embracing Maria, but she'll definitely do it should Maria ask her nicely.

Mira noticed that Maria was still asleep, and the two of them were still in the spooning position. She smiled and tightened her grip on Maria, pulling their bodies closer to each other.

Unfortunately, it seems this little action caused Maria to wake up. For a moment, she was confused. She didn't remember falling asleep last night, but then she remembered that when Mira was eating her out, she felt so much pleasure that she passed out.

It seems she ended up falling asleep, and it doesn't take a genius to figure out who was spooning her.

"Goodmorning, Mira. It looks like I ended up falling asleep last night. I'm sorry that I couldn't-"

Before Maria could finish that sentence, Mira had already leaned over and took her lips into a passionate kiss.

"Mmmm~"

Of course, Maria was surprised and unconsciously let out a soft moan. She then turned her body over so it was facing Mira. The two embraced each other, causing their passionate kiss to become even more intense.

Their tongues intertwined as if wrestling for dominance, and their hands began roaming each other's bodies.

Mira then rolled Maria onto her back so she could take control of the situation, but then suddenly, she pulled away from the kiss.

"Good morning, my dear. There's no need to be sorry about last night. I still need to finish training your lewd body and teaching it to who it belongs." Mira said while holding Maria's chin and staring into her eyes.

Hearing Mira's words, Maria blushed deeply and said, "H-Hmph! What are you talking about? Of course, my body belongs to me!"

Mira trailed her fingers lightly across Maria's body, causing her to tremble slightly, and smirked, "Hehe~ Sure. Sure."

Mira bent down and gave Maria a quick deep kiss before saying, "Now, why don't you give me a pair of clothes? As you can see, my clothes don't exactly fit me anymore. You wouldn't want me to go out looking like this, would you?"

Maria gave Mira's body a once over and quickly shook her head.

"No! Absolutely not! But why do you want to get dressed so soon? Can't we just stay like this for a little longer?"

Looking at Maria's shy face when she asked that, Mira felt her resolve to get out of bed diminish.

"Mmm. Alright. We'll stay like this for a little longer, but you should know that I'm actually quite busy today, and we need to get ready to leave the City within the next few days if we want to join the Battle Maiden Sect."

Maria nodded in understanding, but she didn't care. All she wanted was to spend some quality time with Mira right now.

Mira laid back down on the bed, and Maria quickly latched onto Mira by wrapping an arm and a leg around Mira and putting her head on her shoulder.

Mira put one of her arms around Maria and began rubbing her back and head.

The two stayed in this position for a while without saying anything as there wasn't a need to. At this moment, the two of them felt at peace. They weren't thinking about the future or the hardships they'd have to overcome.

They were just enjoying the feeling of being in each other's company.

At this moment, Mira also felt an unfamiliar emotion well up in her chest. She wasn't sure whether she could call it love or a possessive desire toward Maria, but she knew that Maria's place in her heart was steadily rising.

Only time will tell whether this unfamiliar emotion will become something stable and healthy.

However, their peace was disturbed a few hours later when Mira heard someone approaching Maria's door.

A cold frown appeared on her face when she realized that she and Maria were still naked. Hearing the sounds of footsteps approaching, her crimson eyes began to glow slightly. The surrounding temperature began to drop, but then suddenly, the footsteps stopped.

"Mother! When are you and Auntie Maria going to get out of bed?"

Mira heard Dominque's voice outside the door, causing her frown to turn into a light smile and her eyes to stop glowing.

"One second, sweetie. Your… Pfft-Auntie and I will be out in a few minutes." Mira said with an amused smile on her face, but Maria wasn't amused at all.

"Oi! Who are you calling, 'Auntie'?! I'm more of a big sister, if anything! You got that, Dominique? You should call me Big Sister from now on!"

"I understand, Auntie Maria!"

"Argh! You brat! Just you wait! I'll make you call me Big Sister for sure!"

"Hehehe~"

The two of them heard the sound of Dominque giggling as she ran away.

Mira was also laughing as she slowly got up from the bed.

"I guess it's time to get out of the bed, isn't that right, 'Auntie Maria'?" Mira teased, causing Maria's face to turn bright red in embarrassment.

Without saying anything, Maria got up from the bed and flung herself at Mira.

"What do you think you're doi-Mmmmm~."

Mira accidentally let out of light moan of surprise when she felt Maria playing with her tails and fox ears.

"Hmph! This is what you get for calling me Auntie!"

Maria then kept playing with Mira's tails and ears, but aside from it feeling really good, Mira didn't let out any more moans. Although she's still not quite used to the sensation of having fox tails and ears, she can at least control herself enough not to make any weird noises.

The two kept messing with each other for the next few minutes until they both decided it was time to get dressed and meet up with everyone.

Maria gave Mira a set of black Daoist robes that fit her surprisingly well… Actually, it was suspicious how well they fit…

She did have to create a hole in the back for her tails to go through, but other than that, the robes fit almost perfectly…

"Ummm… Maria, why do you have clothes that fit me?"

"Hmmm? Oh! Ahahaha… Well, you see, ever since your body turned into that of a little girl's, I had this thought. 'What if one day your body matures just like how it shrunk?' When I had that thought, I immediately went out and bought clothes that will fit you in many different sizes."

When Mira heard that, the unfamiliar emotion in her chest increased once again as Mira's gaze became gentler when she looked at Maria.

"Haha! Well, I guess you weren't wrong, as something like that really did happen. To think you even thought about such a possibility. I guess I have a lot to learn when from you when it comes to relationships."

Mira didn't say it, but Maria understood what she must be feeling. Ever since the two of them met, Mira's only done three things: Kill, train, and fight. Not only that but her entire personality was centered around those three things as well. If she wasn't training, fighting, or killing, she didn't have much of a personality other than being incredibly stubborn.

Those traits might be great to have in a romantic partner if Maria was weak or didn't have any ambition of getting strong, but she does.

However, those aren't the only reasons why Maria loves her.

Maria came up from behind Mira and gave her a big hug.

"Don't think too much about it. I know you love me and sincerely want to spend the rest of your life with me. All I need is for you to care and love me genuinely. Everything else will eventually fall into place as long as that's the foundation of our relationship. If you want to change something about yourself, then you're free to talk to me, and we can work something out."

Mira nodded, but what Maria said really struck a chord in her. It was just a few sentences, but those few sentences lifted a burden that had been weighing on her heart. When she came to the conclusion that she wanted to get involved with Maria romantically, she constantly questioned whether she was worthy of such a thing or not.

The only thing she's good at is causing chaos and destruction. How can she start and build a life with someone else if the only thing she's good at is ruining lives?

However, Maria basically just told her that it didn't matter. As long as they love each other and want nothing but the best for each other, then the rest will all fall into place.

She didn't know if that was true or not, but it gave her affirmation and something to think about.

The two of them finished getting dressed and finally walked out of Maria's room. Now, it was time to deal with Elenei's Nirvana!
