Wriothesley woke up to a loud and high pitched squeal, one he would recognize anywhere. Shooting up straight on the Iudex's couch (and waking up a very startled Neuvillette), the Duke urgently shushed a very flabbergasted Furina, his face as hot as a burning coal.
"ARE YOU AND NEUVILLETTE-"
"Yes! Yes! For Archons' sake, yes we are! Now please, just be quiet!"
Giggling loudly, the former Hydro Archon clamped a hand over her mouth. Neuvillette, on the other hand, seemed like he couldn't care less as he nuzzled into the Duke's neck.
"Hello, ma fille."
Ma- wait, what?!
Wriothesley raised a questioning brow which the Chief Justice dismissed with a light nudge.
"Not now. I do not have the stamina for your interrogation."
"Hey!"
"Apologies, that was an attempt at humor."
With an amused chuckle, Wriothesley pulled him closer to his chest. They had bigger problems to deal with than Neuvillette calling Furina his daughter.
Problems such as a very loud-mouthed woman in the doorway of the room spreading rumors to everyone.
The Iudex seemed to notice. Neuvillette pushed himself off the couch and started stretching, and Wriothesley's eyes wandered all over, soaking up the view like a thirsty man in an oasis.
That small waist, those wide hips, those thick thighs...
Damn. That ass though-
Wriothesley could feel himself getting excited and he cleared his throat, looking away as a red began to creep up his already flushed nape.
You are down bad, Wriothesley.
Sighing, he turned to the matter at hand.
"Okay, first of all, news of this cannot get out. Understood? If I hear so much as a sentence about this in the Steambird, I will do a backflip. Except I don't know how to do one. So there's a seventy five percent chance I'll land on my neck and snap it."
The response he received was not the one he was really hoping for. A very concerned and horrified Neuvillette slowly turning to look at him, and a cackling Furina who face planted.
Celestia, this is going to be a long evening...
