YM778.TV Chapter 710: Looks Like Trouble
"Father, I think we\'re still too young to drink alcohol," Ethan said in an attempt to refuse the glass of wine Seff had just handed to him.
"It\'s fine as long as you drink in moderation," Seff replied. "Wallace brought this wine for this celebration, so you should at least taste it. He even brought champagne for the ladies, so we should take this opportunity to unwind a bit."
Ethan glanced at his lovers, who were also holding glasses of champagne and sighed in his heart.
"Fine," Ethan replied. "But only one glass."
"Good!" Seff laughed. "It\'s not every day that you get to marry, so you should at least have a glass to celebrate."
Only after Ethan had drank his wine did Seff leave to talk to the other guests who had come to witness his daughter\'s marriage.
"Go on. Drink one more glass," Lyall said as she refilled Lily\'s glass with champagne.
"Sister, one is enough," Lily replied. "I don\'t want to get drunk."
"Nonsense. Just drink one more, okay?" Lyall replied. "After that, I won\'t give you more."
"Fine." Lily could only smile bitterly because her sister was very pushy. "I\'ll listen to you this once."
"Good!" Lyall nodded.
Lily knew that her sister was a bit upset that she wasn\'t included in the Promised Ceremony, which meant that Ethan didn\'t recognize her as one of his fiancees.
Because of this, she decided to just drink to her heart\'s content alongside her brothers and sisters.
"I didn\'t expect champagne to taste this good," Chloe commented. "It\'s sweeter than I imagined."
"Right," Luna agreed. "My family doesn\'t really buy alcohol, so this is also a first for me."
"Make sure to not drink too much," Emma commented. "Especially since you don\'t know your tolerance level."
"Have you drank alcohol before, Emma?" Lilian, who was seated beside Ethan\'s Promised One, asked.
"Yes," Emma replied. "Raising our alcohol tolerance is part of our training. We often drink wine and other alcoholic drinks with the dwarves, so we can hold our own when it comes to drinking alcohol."
Lilith, who was the oldest among Ethan\'s lovers, sipped her glass of champagne and observed her sisters quietly.
She never thought that Ethan would declare her to be one of his future wives—she would\'ve been fine even if she were just a mistress, or even a bed warmer.
For her, that was enough. So being part of this event was like a dream for her.
In fact, she was wondering if everything that happened was just a dream and if she would wake up to reality after she closed her eyes tonight.
Her hand shook a bit as this thought passed through her mind.
\'If this is really a dream, then I want to dream a little longer,\' Lilith thought as she shifted her gaze towards Ethan, who was seated beside Lily.
Both of them truly looked happy together, which made her feel something warm spread inside her chest.
As someone who had been trained to assassinate those who would harm the young man, her Master, she never thought that she would feel this happy just by being by his side.
Having sensed Lilith\'s gaze on him, Ethan glanced in her direction and smiled.
The two stared at each other for a few seconds, long enough for the young man to pass a message to her, making her face redden.
\'I hate those Progenitors,\' Lilith thought as she remembered Ethan\'s story.
Because of them, Lilith wouldn\'t be able to feel what it was like to become one with her Master, whom she had fallen in love with.
It was not only Lilith who was feeling helpless about the situation.
Even Emma, who was Ethan\'s Promised One, wished that she could burn those Progenitors in a bonfire and wipe them all from the face of the world.
Unfortunately, she and Lilith didn\'t have the power to do that, so they would have to settle for other means—like Ethan\'s Dream Walking Magic, which they still hadn\'t experienced.
However, when they asked Chloe about it, she said that it felt so real that she thought that she was really making love with Ethan in reality.
Because of this, Emma and Lilith were looking forward to experiencing the same. They also wanted to embrace the young man they loved, even if it was only in their dreams.
The party lasted until sunset before Ethan and his lovers decided to retire for the night.
Chloe, Luna, Emma, Lilith, and Lilian stayed in the residence of the Beastkin, while Ethan and Lily went to a different residence, which Seff\'s family used during the summer.
It was a two-storey house near the peak of the mountain, where Seff\'s Main Residence was located.
It was a house that overlooked the entirety of the Northlake Forest and also the place with the most scenic view within the Beastkin Territory.
This was where Ethan and Lily would spend their honeymoon.
Getting there wasn\'t a problem since they could fly.
Though that was currently not true for Lily, whose face was flushed after drinking too much champagne due to Lyall\'s urging. She was currently riding with Ethan on his Wind Dancer.
When they arrived at the villa, Ethan placed Lily on the bed so that she could rest.
"Rest," Ethan said softly before kissing Lily\'s lips. "We will be staying here for three days, so there\'s no rush."
"No," Lily replied as she wrapped her arms around Ethan\'s neck. "I want you now."
Seeing his drunk wife acting spoiled made Ethan chuckle, so he decided to kiss her repeatedly due to how cute she was.
Perhaps, feeling loved and appreciated, Lily finally relaxed. Before long, she fell asleep, still wearing her wedding dress.
Ethan dutifully took off her dress so that his wife could sleep more comfortably on the bed.
It wasn\'t his first time seeing Lily\'s naked body because he had made love with her more than he had made love with his other lovers combined.
Even so, he still felt his body heating up as he gazed at her defenseless state.
Lily was his first woman, and both of them stepped onto the staircase of adulthood together.
He had long wanted to spend his lifetime with her, and even now that they were married, his feelings remained the same.
Ethan covered her body so that she wouldn\'t feel cold, then went to the balcony to look at the stars and the moon, which were bathing the mountains and forests with their faint light.
After spending several minutes observing the beautiful night sky, he saw something move within the darkness.
It was fast and headed in the direction of their villa.
\'Looks like trouble,\' Sebastian said with an amused look on his face.
\'Big trouble.\' Ethan\'s Other Half nodded.
Ethan narrowed his gaze and prepared himself to beat the crap out of the creature who dared to intrude on his honeymoon with his wife.
But just as Ethan was about to deal with the intruder who suddenly trespassed on the mountain that exclusively belonged to Seff\'s family, he caught sight of the red fur covering the Werewolf\'s body.
A sigh escaped Ethan\'s lips.
He recognized the Werewolf who had decided to drop by on this quiet night.
He knew that something wasn\'t right during the party, and her appearance confirmed that his wife being dead drunk was all part of her plan.
