Angel responded quickly with a slightly high-pitched voice, nervous to please Yasenia as she thought she had blundered while speaking her rank previously. "I'm sure you j-just didn't find the correct way. To enter the violet class directly, you must be a rare genius! I-I'm sure you can learn one of the professions someday!"
Yasenia looked over for a moment and couldn't stop her laughter from coming out. 'I really like this soft and gentle girl. She is quite cute.' did she think I was depressed or something?
After laughing, Yasenia continued with a smile. "Don't worry, Angel. I'm not upset or anything."
Seeing the little girl blushing again, she changed the topic. "Who is the third roommate? I heard that we will be sorted in batches of three."
Angel changed from blushing to a wilted little eggplant. "T-There isn't anybody else…"
Yasenia didn't know why she felt a prick in her heart.
She gently asked, "Have you been alone this year here?"
Angel nodded her little face with a sad expression.
Yasenia stood up.
Angel was startled. 'Did I offend her in any form!? Does she not want to be only with me? Is she-.'
Her thoughts stopped when she smelled that sweet floral scent beside her and a pair of hands lifting her from her armpits. She couldn't help but give a little shout in surprise, and then her little butt fell on something softer than the sofa.
After Yasenia sat her in her lap, she hugged her waist from behind and forced her to lean on her body.
When the dragoness leaned back and pulled Angel into her embrace, the little girl's head fell right into her bosom. Angel felt her head fall between the soft and large pillows, making her blush again.
"From now on, we will be together, so don't put on that sad face of yours. I can't bear seeing such a cute girl like you sad."
Then while letting the stiff Angel sink in her embrace, she started patting her with her tail to relax her.
Yasenia continued. "If you need anything, you must tell me. I will help you with whatever I can."
Angel's softening in her embrace made Yasenia feel her coaxing was working.
Yasenia didn't know why she was saying these things, but she honestly started to like this little girl from the moment she opened the door like a scared little animal.
Angel was at first stiff with nervousness, but with the arms around her waist making her feel secure, the sweet floral scent making her fall in a daze, Yasenias soft and warm body pressing her back, and the soft and smooth tail patting her head, she relaxed her body little by little until she was like a boneless blob. 'Yasneia's embrace is so comfy~.'
Now she had a blissful smile and thought. 'Yasenia seems like a good person… I really like… This… Feeling…'
Then, she fell asleep. The soft coaxing was that relaxing.
Yasenia sensed her breathing slow down and sifted Angel's position sideways so that her side face could use her breast as a pillow. Then she cradled her.
Yasenia continued patting her with her tail and using her arms as support.
Meanwhile, she was looking out of the nearby window. Looking at the setting sun, she started to feel some of her actions were abnormal.
Moreover, she felt that liking some girls was becoming… Easier… As if her feelings about being loyal to Tatyana were only a joke. 'Why am I getting more easily influenced? Is it…my constitution? I can't always blame my constitution, right?'
Yasenia sighed and looked at the person that was now sideways in her arms.
She couldn't stop these warm feelings from appearing in her heart.
Angel was drooling a little on her breast, making her look extremely adorable. Yasenia smiled tenderly, not knowing why she felt so satisfied that this little girl found her embrace so relaxing.
She poked her full cheeks and said with a whisper. "Why do I like you more and more by the second little Angel? I don't even know anything about you…"
Yasenia decided not to think too deeply and leaned back, repositioning Angel to be comfortable. Then, she also closed her eyes.
Angel woke up feeling extremely warm and comfortable. 'When did my pillow become so soft… I want to bury myself and not wake up…'
She then groggily opened her eyes and saw that it was night, but the moonlight from the Full Moon entered from the window, making everything glow beautifully.
She then remembered how she fell asleep and looked at the "soft pillow." Her face became red with a puff! 'W-W-What kind of position is this!? Did I just fall asleep in the embrace of a person I just met!?'
She looked up at Yasenia's face and was completely mesmerized."Wow..."
The moonlight fell on the dragoness's beautiful face creating a silver radiance in her white skin. Her beautiful straight eyebrows were relaxed and curved, giving her a more approachable look. The long and thick eyelashes created shadows under her eyes, and the seductive look had disappeared, replacing it with a relaxed and gentle expression.
Yasenia's red lips were slightly raised and had a moist luster making one want to kiss them. They look like soft jelly and as if they would melt once they entered the mouth.
Angel just lay in Yasenia's arms, looking at her ethereal face with an increasingly rapid beating heart. The sweet floral scent and the arms and tail wrapped around her protectively didn't help relax that heartbeat.
Yasenia was extremely tired that day. Hence, she was deeply asleep and didn't sense Angel waking up.
Angel couldn't help but look at Yasenia's moist lips more closely.
She gulped to moisten her dry throat and licked her own lips. 'J-j-just a little k-kiss won't h-hurt anybody, right? She is asleep, so she won't realize... right?'
Little Angel lifted her face, gradually approaching.
Her heartbeat was increasing, and she was becoming more and more nervous. She could feel her palms sweating as she approached the divine face.
Then, after being hit by Yasenia's warm breath, Angel dove forward until she felt the soft lips landing on hers. Like an electric current, her body was zapped with pleasure, and her heart rate went astray.
Angel closed her eyes. She felt like the lips touching hers were like cream, soft and delicious.
She maintained that position for a while, feeling the softness on her lips. She didn't move as she just pressed the lips together.
When she opened her eyes, Angel met a pair of beautiful golden slit eyes with a red color growing from the pupils like roots until they reached one-quarter of the iris. They were a pair of exotic, beautiful, and attractive eyes.
However, Angel could only feel her heart sinking.
'I got caught!'
She hastily took back her lips and lowered her face guiltily, waiting for Yasenia to speak.
Angel's face became paler by the second she heard Yasenia not speaking, and her eyes grew moist. 'Will she berate me for kissing her in her sleep? Will she leave? Will she… hate me?'
The more she thought, the harder it was to stop the tears from falling.
Yasenia, at first, was surprised, but she calmed down fast. 'She kissed me? What to do…'
She chuckled a little. 'Will I get a girlfriend instead of a roommate? Hmmm... Starting as a girlfriend instead of a friend... Let's try it. If it doesn't work, I can always de-escalate things slowly...'
Yasenia looked down and thought, 'I think I should be honest with her. If I can't be loyal, I will be honest and never lie to any of my… potential partners. Even if this results in regret… I rather trust and regret than doubt them and regret it later.'
Yasenia tightened her embrace and spoke softly. "Angel… I already have a partner."
Angel felt like someone had punched her heart. She couldn't hold her tears anymore and said with a brittle voice, "I-I'm sorry, I-."
Yasenia tightened the embrace with her tail and used one hand to lift Angel's chin.
She couldn't help but feel bad seeing the crying face, but she continued. "I have been with that person for some months already, and I love her very much."
That was the truth, and she won't hide it.
She cleared Angel's tears gently and then continued with a smile. "But that doesn't mean I can't be with you."
Angel was surprised and opened her teary eyes. "W-what?"
Yasenia chuckled and continued with the same soft voice. "My constitution is called [Celestial Yin and Yang body]. Apart from making my body extremely apt for cultivation, it also increases my lust a lot, so my partner told me: 'When you go to the academy, get yourself four or five girls and bring them home!'"
Angel was utterly stupefied, but soon her heart started to beat fast again. 'Doesn't this mean!?'
And as Angel expected, Yasenia said. "If you want to be with me, you have to know you won't be the only one. I can't promise things like 'I will love all of you the same!' That is impossible; there will always be bias."
Yasenia continued. "What I can promise you is honesty. I will never lie to you. If I find something that may hurt you if I say it, I may hide it from you, but I will never lie to you."
Yasenia cupped Angel's face, which had become red again with apparent shyness and excitement gleaming in those blue eyes and asked. "Knowing all of this… Do you still want to become my partner?"
Angel answered almost instantly. "Yes!"
Yasenia couldn't help but ask doubtfully. "Why do you like me? We've just met, and you know nothing about me."
Angel's face became redder. She looked down and started playing withYasenia's fingers to ease her nervousness. "Because of my soft personality, I have been having trouble making companions in the academy. I spend most of my time studying formations or cultivating, so… approaching people is a little hard with my limited free time."
Then she looked at the Moon outside, "And because most of the people I tried speaking to look up to me a lot, they always treat me with respect instead of... Closeness. "
Angel felt her head being placed on top of Yasenias breast, and the sweet scent and softness this time greatly relaxed her mood.
Closing her eyes and hugging Yasenia's waist, she continued. "You, however, even after listening that I'm a violet class in both cultivation and formations, you only showed surprise and praise, not…That pressuring admiration. I felt comfortable with your gaze."
She then said a little shyly. "Not only that, you treated me gently when I was nervous instead of becoming impatient. Then you told me that I could rely on you…" Her face reddened more, and she stuttered a bit. "...W-While hugging me a-and it felt really comfortable."
Yasenia looked at the face atop her breast and lowered her head to kiss the sweet-looking red cheeks.
Angel opened her eyes when she felt the kiss and smiled happily and bashfully. "I feel very safe in your embrace… That is why I like you… So, yes, I want to become your partner, I want to know more about you, about your likes and dislikes, about…"
Yasenia's heart was already a puddle when Angel finished speaking. She looked at the shy Angel and closed the distance capturing her lips and pushing her onto the sofa slowly.
This time the kiss was tender and slow.
Angel hooked her arms around her neck and returned the kiss clumsily. With Yasenia on top of her, she felt in heaven right now. 'Her lips are so soft. I really like her taste. Her warm and soft body feels comfortable around me. Her scent makes me relax...'
Angel felt Yasenia's tongue gently licking her lips, and she moaned comfortably.
Yasenia didn't do much more. She wanted their first kiss to be slow and pleasant.
She used her tail to caress Angel's head as she hugged her and kissed her tenderly.
Angel melted in that loving embrace, thinking. 'I was a little doubtful, but this kiss…I think I'm melting from comfort.'
Yasenia separated and said in a husky voice. "Let's go to bed. We need to wake up early tomorrow, and I'm a little tired from today."
Angel nodded dazedly and buried her head in Yasenias neck.
Yasenia lifted her using her arms and tail to carry her comfortably.
They reached Angel's bed and lay down together.
Yasenia buried Angel in her arms and said, "Goodnight, baby."
Angel didn't mind that way of calling her. She nodded, snuggled closer, and entered dreamland while burying her face in Yasenia's comfortable softness.
That was sweet
Fast? Not really.
I mean they are not in love, just had a very good first impression and took a strong enough interest/desire in each other to give "partners" a chance. I see it more like they just decided to date. In which case it is not strange/unnatural that it is fast, as it has no major commitment or any deep feeling involved.
Thanks for the chapter!
Thank you for the feedback! This is exactly what I wanted the reader to feel~ They are dating, not a full-blown couple, there are some chapters until their feelings deepen~
I think it was wonderfully done. Considering they didn't do anything more than kissing and hugging the physical part of the relationship was definitely not too fast. And not the emotional part either imo. They talked about each other and said what's important to know (at least from Yasenia's side, we don't know Angel's so I can't judge whether she left something important out). And then they decided they like each other and want to start trying to date. Really, it's not any faster than online dating or something similar. And they more or less agreed to start slowly, just that they know from the beginning that they want to end up in a relationship. So yeah, very good start.
Glad you liked it~
My thoughts exactly ┌|o^▽^o|┘♪
I looked at the glossary and was thinking these girls are hot I wish I was with them or maybe all of them.
A little too fast probably would have been better spaced over a couple days instead of instant but considering Angel’s personality so far she latched on quick so it was only a matter of how many days can she stay away so it fits fine just somewhat awkward with the less than a day timing sure Yasenia’s constitution increases her lust but even then a few hours mostly spent sleeping is a bit rushed for a love interest and not a s.e.x friend or casual hookup 2-3 days seem like the sweet spot but considering it’s a cultivation novel not sci-fi or fantasy it’s works out well with the 1 day and new relationship thing since cultivation novels typically have a lot happen in short time frames then long stints of training/survival/meditation
That is why Yasenia didn't say I love you, nor anything like that, they are just girlfriends and have a very good impression of each other, they won't cross that last step until something happens that completely deepens their feelings! However, I understand your point. I hope you like the next chapters and see how they get closer~
It more make me get the feeling that angel is a bit of a frank person with her feeling and is quick to acknowledge that she likes a person
Fast? Maybe.
Bad? Definitely not!
It was mild in terms of romance and that helped with since it wasn't so on the nose with the whole I need to have s*x to make myself stronger
"Oohh here she comes. Watch out girl she'll chew you up. Oohh here she comes. She's a girleater (maneater)."
Too fast? No, it's not, the pace is normal for me, if you put your perspective into theirs, there is nothing wrong with that, as long as they haven't reached the final step, it pace is normal IMO, on a side note, if you compare it with the order of who met Yassy first, then yes, but anyway, Angle is soooooooo cute I want to kidnap her for my self! Jk, anyway she is the only possible love interest that has more back stories so far. Hoping to see/read more of others back story.
Thx for the chap!
Considering Yasenia's constitution and scent, it's not that odd on either of their parts, especially if Angel has a constitution that is extremely compatible with Yasenia, which would probably create a bit of a feedback loop between the two favorability wise. It's moving a bit fast, yes, however I'm assuming it's their constitutions at fault for that.
