Chapter 89 – Mother’s Wives Visit
*** Alzi, several weeks after the party ***
"Honey, wake up. I've brought a few people you need to meet," my Mommy says, gently rocking me awake. I blink away the sleep and surprise her with a big hug, pulling the pregnant woman into a hug and my bed.
"Hi, I've missed you a lot," I say, making sure she doesn't escape my grasp. "Are your tits bigger?"
"Yes honey, now let me go. I need to introduce you to my wives."
"How are they bigger?" I ask, still holding on.
"Wives first, questions second, baby."
"Fine," I say, letting her go. Yuki warned me Mommy was going to bring her wives up, so I actually put some clothing on to bed. Ok, I didn't, but I put a robe by my bed so I could put it on while still under the covers. Mother wants to wait till we are all married for them to join us in bed and all that. It's a little sad, but it probably is best not to get all three of them pregnant at the same time.
As I try to put the robe on my bloated body, Mommy straightens her own robe.
"Mommy. I don't think I can put the robe on and stay covered up," I have to admit. My belly and covers aren't letting me move as I need.
"You can get out of bed and put the robe on. They can see you naked. We just need to wait for sex. The kids you gave me are going to be keeping us busy enough without more on the way and extra pregnancies," Mommy says.
With that, I let the covers fall and got out, quickly throwing the robe around me before sitting back down on the bed. I got a good look at the two others in the room. One is a green dragon, the other has dark red scales. The green one has noticeably more breasts than the red one, and Mommy.
"Now, my wives. Ilka in the corner, has a sword affinity. And this is Akhae," she
"Nice to meet you two. Thanks for marrying my Mother. She needs the help and really likes you, Akhae. I feel a lot better with someone watching over her, though I'm normally the one that needs watching," I say to the two new dragons. Bowing my head as my body won't bend.
"It's great to meet you, Alzi. Sorry for not being there to help you. We've liked your Mother for a long time as well; we just never got the courage to ask her what we should've," Ilka says.
"Uh, yes. I'm sorry, but it is good to meet you," Akhae says after Ilka gives her a mean stare.
"Sorry about the furniture. I don't normally have many guests for whom using the bed is inappropriate."
"Oh, don't worry. Armirynth, sit down. You may only be a few months along, but there's no reason to keep a pregnant woman standing. We're both capable of standing or sitting on the floor," Ilka chides.
"Ok, I just. Ok, you're right. The walk here and back is getting harder," Mother says, finding a spot next to me.
I give her a little side hug before going back to my question, "Mommy about your tits. You shouldn't be gaining that much volume from your pregnancy."
"I think it is due to the number of kids I'm having, or you played a bigger trick on your dear Mommy," she teases. "I think I've been eating better now. I didn't notice all the stress I built up till these two forced it out of me.
"Oh, I'm sorry for the stress. I don't think I did anything else to you besides the kids," I say, pulling her into a hug. "But I may have; I don't have great control over my mana, and it seems it affects people without a class more."
"I don't know about that stress. You've taken over all the household chores on top of your restaurant—cooking, cleaning, sewing, and even some of the shopping unless you say that our nighttime activities are what released your stress," Akhae says. A little blush comes as she looks at the floor. "We really need to keep you from doing some much. Alzi, can you convince her to relax a bit?"
"I would be doing more, but Ilka tied me up in bed when I tried," Mommy says with a sigh, rubbing my wings.
"Yes, Mai and I laugh about Quintella always having a chaperone when visiting. They're having their first kid after a few centuries and won't let her out of their sight," I say, supporting Mommy's wives. She shouldn't be doing so much with kids on the way.
"Who is Quintella?" Mommy asks.
"Oh, yes. She is the wife of a Countess. I got her pregnant. She's a vampire, and they struggle to have kids, yet I did it the first time. Even got Mai pregnant. Oh, yay, Mai is pregnant and a vampire now. It actually happened before your last visit, but I got distracted with our kids and all that."
"Yes, Yuki sent that information back. I thought it best not to bring it up because of how traumatic it was. I actually saw her on the way up. Congratulations on having a kid with her. She's a sweet girl and will make a great wife," Mommy says.
"Yes. It was probably best you didn't bring it up. Oh, I finished a pair of socks. You should bring them back before so I don't forget about them." I get up and waddle over to the wardrobe and grab the small things out. The baby is going to look so cute in them. I'll have to have Mommy make a few more later so I can see the babies in them.
"Oh, honey, those are so cute. Good job on getting a pair done this fast. I know you're kept busy here so I'll let you know how many I'm having. It's a boy and a girl," she says, taking the small socks from me.
"Um. What did you say?" I ask.
"A boy and a girl," she repeats.
"Really. Are you sure?"
"Yes, I went to the temple for the Fertility Goddess. The priestess there told me herself."
"Twins. You had me thinking I gave you triplets or something before. I can make another pair for your next visit, and both will have something from me for the few months I'll be gone. Perfect perfect. Oh, maybe I can still make them hats. I've got like seven months. Well six after I make the other pair. I can do that. I thought I would be a lot slower picking this up again," I say. Oh, thank Goddess. I was fretting how many I was going to have to make. I know she gave me a hint, but I normally go big, and the town's methods aren't the most accurate. A woman every year gets told she's having a boy or two when she's having a girl. Occasionally, it even goes the other way. Expecting a girl, and out pops a boy. Or say that they're having twins, but only one comes out.
"Nothing about the boy?" she asks, knocking me out of my thoughts.
"Hmm. Oh, yay. That is nice, but a kid is a kid."
"haha. You are likely the only one to say that. Kids are enough to throw a party over normally, but it is not a common occurrence. The town didn't believe me when I mentioned the priestess saying it, but their method came to the same conclusion, so the entire village had a feast. It's been two years since the last male was born. The boy is a big deal."
"No, the kids are a big deal. The boy is just that. A boy. Don't let him get all the attention. The girl needs to be loved as well."
"Honey, don't worry. She'll be showered in love as well. But the village will treat him special. Boys are rare. But I'll be sure to shower them both in love till you get back to help us," Mommy says.
"Hmph, don't let them. If they give him a big head when I come back, they'll have problems."
"Don't worry, dear. Your kids will behave correctly. But there is only so much we can do to stop the village from overreacting. I'll try to limit them and make sure our little girl knows she's special," Mother assures me, running a hand through my silky hair.
"I know. I just don't want any of the kids to feel left out."
"Yes, that can happen. It worked out for me and my younger brother. My parents showed me love as well. But I see what you mean about the parties. His were always a bit bigger," Ikla says.
With all the news we share, I goad Akhae into sharing childhood stories about Mommy and relax.
*** Armirynth, after meeting with Alzi ***
"Ok, dears. First, we need to get to the Goddess of the Sea and say a little prayer. Then we can go home," I say. I only warned them I had an errand to run after meeting with Alzi. Hopefully, they don't balk at this. I really want to give Armirynth a class. I know she feels left out with me having a class now. "This way, it's by the fertility temple."
"Why would we need to visit the Goddess of the Sea? We don't live that close to the sea. None of us have ever made the trip there, and we aren't in danger of the sea wiping the village out," Akhae says.
"Please, just follow me. I know this is weird, but just trust me. This is important," I insist. I start walking to the middle of the capital, hoping they just follow along. Making my way through the small crowd I hear their footsteps run a bit to catch up.
"Dear, this better be worth it. You don't need to be walking all this distance."
"It will be. Trust me," I say.
We make the journey through the capital, still amazed by the artwork and the people walking around. Every road seems to have more art and people than our entire village. Towering buildings hang over us, hiding the low sun, and street lamps let us find our way.
We need to hurry if we want to make it back with some sun left.
I pick up the pace in the winding streets. The temple is across from the Fertility temple, and a grand park separates them. I rush past the decorations, simply noting the extra gold encasing the many statues compared to the Fertility Temple. Once again, the door is hard to open, but once Ilka helps, it opens easily. I usher them to the pews in the back.
"Ok, just say a prayer—a simple one saying thanks for the trade or something," I instruct before following my own instructions. The prayer only takes a few seconds to say. I look over and find Ilka giving me a confused look, but Akhae is still bowed down, looking like she is a true worshipper of the Goddess. Thank you, Goddess.
