Leora's POV
I woke up early to see Vel cudding Girsha's chest whilst I was spooning them. I smiled and sat up. I love that we can share Vel and not worry about our relationship. They deserve all the love in the world. I wanted to talk to them both about our relationship, but my thoughts were stopped when I heard a knock at the door. I quickly pulled on a shirt and trousers before saying a spell to fix my hair as I raced to the door
I opened it to find my ex-girlfriend Oceane The Mermaid. I was shocked to see her, and my brain went to goo. "Oceane! What are you doing here? How did you find me?" I rushed out before shutting the door slowly so the others couldn't hear me.
"I've missed you too... anyway, Fleafiara told me where you were, and I need a place to stay tonight. Please, I won't cause trouble." Oceane said as she batted her eyes at me. I still felt so heart broken, she left me without a goodbye. "I don't know, Oceane, you really hurt me that night." I said quietly, knowing Girsha would wake up soon.
Oceane pouted and crossed her arms, a look that used to always get me to give in to her. "You promised if I ever needed a place to stay, I could... plus, it's only one night, i am just passing through to meet up with my pod tomorrow." I sighed. "I made that promise to my girlfriend. You argued with me about magic and left the next morning. With no note or anything. Fleafiara had to calm me down, I thought you were kidnapped or something!" I yelled the last part, which made Girsha notice and push the door open. She was in nothing but her chest wrap and some shorts.
"Leora, who is this?" Girsha asked, confusion and worry plastered on her face. "Girsha, this is my ex, Oceane The Mermaid. Oceane, this is my girlfriend Girsha Iron-Skin." I said calmly, knowing Girsha would kill Oceane if she knew all the shit we went through and how upset I was. "Oh, Sparkles, this is cute... Let me guess, you wanted someone who could break you but would also be submissive. Unlike those Ogers." Saying this, I guess Oceane thought it would tick Girsha off. "Leora, let's go inside." Was all Girsha said as she took my hand.
"But Girsha, Leora promised to house me if I needed it. I know Orcs can't reject a promise of hospitality." Oceane said in a sickly sweet voice. I rolled my eyes and went inside where a shirtless Vel was making breakfast. "Leora, that's wrong?" Vel asked as I came over to them and hugged them. They hugged me back, and I could tell they saw Oceane enter into the living room.
"It's okay, I can already guess what this is. Do you want me to stay?" Vel whispered. I nodded, and Vel let go before returning to breakfast. "Ooh Leora, you have been busy, an Orc and an Elf in one night?" Oceane laughed. "Hello, I'm Vel." Vel said, smiling as Oceane dropped to the sofa. "A very handsome Elf in deed." Oceane licked her lips. "Back off, they don't want you." I said angrily. Girsha stood behind me.
"You never came back this time it's been three years, and why do you need to come through Elvan Country?" I said, waiting to hear another bullshit excuse. "I spent more time with my pod since I last saw you Sparkles. There was a merman who rocked my world, but I got bored of him and went on a land adventure. Then my pod told me they would meet me at Elf's port, so I will stay here tonight and travel to the port tomorrow." Oceane explained. I sat down in the armchair, and Girsha sat on the arm.
"Sparkles, I think your guard dog needs her mussle." She said, referring to Girsha. "She's fine and stop calling me Sparkles." I said, looking away from her. "But your eyes would always sparkle when I curle my finger just right." Oceane said, slowly making Girsha ready to pounce. I put my hand on her thigh and looked into her eyes. A warning not to fight her.
"Breakfast is ready." Vel called, so Girsha and I moved to the table to eat. Oceane sat down next to Vel and took a small portion. "Hmm, tasty." She hummed happily. "So Girsha how many times have you fucked Leora?" Oceane smirked, Vel coughed and had to drink some water. As Girsha and I looked confused. "Oceane, why does that matter?" I asked bored of her shit already.
"Well, I want to see if she has beaten my record yet. It was easy to get to 17 since you have a crazy sexual drive. I guess that's why every time I came back to you. You were ready for me to destroy that beautiful pus--." Before Oceane finished her sentence, Girsha interrupted. "23, but that's in the space of 6 and a half months. How long was your relationship?"
I smirked and answered Girsha. "Well, we dated for half a year, then you left me for the pod. Then you came back for a momth, then left me again, and then you came back for another month before leaving me the final time. So our relationship was worth 8 months, so I'd say Girsha has definitely beat you on that one." Oceane looked pissed. Her toy was playing with someone better. "Wow, you two are animals." Vel laughed, trying to take the seriousness out of the topic. "Not animals, Orcs." I said, smiling at Girsha. She smiled back, and Oceane laughed.
"Wait a fucking minute... are you telling me THE Grand Mage Leora is going to marry a non-magical, non-beneficial, no money Half-Orc, THE same Leora who's only commitment is becoming a powerful Mage? Who I had to track down every time I wanted to see her because she was always travelling? SHE wants to marry you?" Oceane laughed. "I can see a divorce in your future."
Both Vel and Girsha looked ready to kill Oceane. "I guess you'll never understand because you are a Mermaid. You don't feel love or commitment." I said, mostly annoyed with her now. "All I was, was a good time to you, an easy fuck when your hormones were telling you to breed but you don't want kids, you're selfish, maybe my commitment was just to magic but now things have changed and I love Girsha. I want to be with her, and I shouldn't have to justify it to you because you mean nothing to me."
I was now also ready to fight Oceane, but I wouldn't, I couldn't let her control me anymore. Girsha held my hand and smiled. I kissed her head and looked to Oceane. "I hope you find love or something similar one day... you could have had me, but you lost that chance."
Vel smiled approvingly, and Girsha said to Oceane. "We will still allow you to stay here for the night if you wish, but we will not be entertaining you." Oceane then stood up and without a word left. I felt bad for her, but I knew she needed to hear it. I just hope there is no one else out there hurting because of her.
