New law of Beast Taming

"Oh, I am so sorry. I forgot that this was a sensitive topic for you, Yoko. I should not have brought it up in front of you. Forget that I ever said anything."

Amane watched as Elios Tsurugi attempted to fake sympathy when she spoke. Amane could hear the mocking tone in her voice and the echo of laughter as well.

'Ah, my aunt must be trying to make me think of dead parents when she said those words. But if she thinks I will get saddened by her pitiful attempts, then she had another thing coming her way.'

Amane continued to smile while looking at Elios. It made the female tense up and she realized that something was wrong.

Around them, the guards and the maids had gone just a little bit tense. They would act the second Amane gave them the order to do so. But for now, they all glared at Elios with a deadly glare.

"My dear aunt. There is no need for you to feel sorry for me. You see, I am much stronger than you and I am sure that my parents are in a better place now. There is no need for you to be worried about me."

Amane assured Elios and Elios clenched her fist tightly before she pulled her expression back to a neutral one.

"Oh, I see. What a good girl you are, not wanting to worry me and assuring me like this. But remember Yoko, there is no need for you to carry all your burden yourself. You have a lot of people looking out for you."

'Yeah, and you are not one of them.'

Amane was amused at seeing her aunt act this carefully. She had to admit that Elios was one of the best actors she had seen.

It stung when Elios patted Amane on her shoulder and Amane felt the slight burn spread across her arm when Elios pulled her hand back.

She was sure that Elios had tried to do something to her but Amane was not sure what she had done. She remained impassive but Elios did not show any signs of panic or similar emotions. Stay connected through My Virtual Library Empire

'Hmm, my aunt sure is a tough one to crack. I will need to…'

The burn subsided but a familiar numbness spread across Amane's body after that. She felt the residual energy from Rabelais's corruption covering her body. It made her numb and difficult to move anything.

"Lady Yoko, are you alright?"

One of the maids was the first one to notice that something was wrong with Amane. The maid took a step toward Amane in concern when Amane stopped her.

For now, Amane was not sure if her condition could spread to other people or not. If she did know that she should not show any signs of weakness to her enemy.

"There is no need to panic. I just wanted to check something out so I stopped moving. Hurry up and clean this body. We need to start preparing for the funeral soon."

Amane panted but she did not let it show on her face. Her body was beginning to sweat so Amane quickly needed to get out of the room.

Elios Tsurugi had a satisfied look on her face as she watched Amane fade away because of her. She was confident that her powers had worked. For a minute she was worried that nothing would happen to Yoko.

'Ah, now I feel much better. I only need to make Yoko lose control of herself in a public setting and people would begin to question if she is well enough to head the Tsurugi household or not.'

For Elios, it was a matter of waiting and that was something she did well.

.......

Elios felt Rabelais's energy spread across her body. She had felt the signs of corruption before but they were beginning to become evident now.

Her body found it difficult to move and the energy she had was becoming lacking. This was not a one-time thing as well. It would continue to happen if the corruption inside Amane was not purified.

But the queen of dragons was a mighty existence that rivalled most smaller gods. How was Amane ever going to find someone who could help her out?

"Yoko, are you alright? You look pale if there anything I can help you with?"

Sakura's face appeared in front of Amane in the corridor. It was certainly lucky for Amane to run into the only person whom Amane could count on for now.

"S-Sakura, take me to my room. My powers are unstable right now."

At first, Sakura looked confused. She did not seem to have realized the significance of what Amane said to her. But soon her eyes widened and she looked shocked.

"Y-You! How did this? Not, that is not important. Just give me a second and I will help you out."

Amane looked at the female in front of her but she did not register when Sakura picked her up and started running back to her room.

Sakura was almost even in height with Amane now and it was evident that she would surpass Amane soon. Even the muscles she had developed recently felt hard under Amane's hand.

'This feels good. I feel my body calming down. The weird feeling in my stomach is going away.'

Amane was sucking a few of Sakura's powers and adding them to her own. It was not a solution to her problem but it did make her feel better.

Rabelais's curse was making Amane feel empty inside. Thankfully, the attack did not last long.

Amane only had to wait around a little and rest for about 15 minutes before she could use her body once more. When she checked herself, no traces of the curse remained.

But Amane still knew that the curse was inside her body right now.

'This is not good. Having this curse would put me at a disadvantage in the future. But I also do not know how to get rid of it.'

Amane clenched her fist to check her control over her body. It moved accordingly and Amane sighed in relief.

"Yoko, what the hell was that? What happened to you? It looked almost as if you were dying and you scared me so much. Please don't scare me like that again."

Sakura begged while clutching Amane's shirt. She had made herself lie down with Amane as well and Sakura was currently leaning into Amane's body.

The feeling of a solid chest on top of her own made Amane's senses return to her. It felt good to have a human touch grounding her.

"It's alright. My condition is not serious and it happened because I let my guard down. I am sure that your mother tried to curse me but it did not take full effect."

Amane explained but she felt a lot of things out of her explanation. Amane still did not want to explain what happened and she would not.

Sakura knew that as well so she stopped asking useless questions. She just tightened her grip on Amane's body.

"Speaking of grounded…I think I still need a little help here. Sakura, help me out a little by touching me."

Amane asked as she held her arms open for Sakura to nuzzle her way into. Sakura looked amused but also concerned. But in the end, her desire to be with Amane won her over and she burrowed her head into Amane's chest.

Her hands squeezed Amane's breasts seductively and she looked up with an amused look on her face.

"Are you sure you want me to help you out? You can just overpower me and take what you want from my body."

Sakura had said these words in passing but now that these were out, she could not help but imagine them happening.

"Oh, so that's what you want from me Sakura? Do you want me to tie you up and push you back? It would leave you all exposed to me and your body would just be my toy."

Sakura tried to hold back her moan as she heard Yoko's seductive words reach her ear. They caressed her and her whole body shuddered as a result of this.

She knew that she should not get carried away, but Sakura could not help but imagine Yoko taking her pleasure from Sakura's body.

"P-Please, stop teasing me. You are not well and…"

"Oh, but I am all recovered already Sakura. And I cannot help but think how good you would look with your body all spread out in front of me. I can just bounce up and down your cock, or even tongue your pussy."

Sakura felt her mouth dry out when she heard these words. They were too much for her to bear and her cock was filling out soon.

"Do you know what Charlie recently said to me? She said that I have a small baby bump even when I am not filled with anything. Do you feel it as well?"

Amane asked and Charlie desperately tried to hold her jealousy back. She did not want to hurt Yoko but it was hard.

Her hands tightened around Yoko's arm and her eyes flashed. But unconsciously, she did look down and notice the small baby bump Charlie had mentioned.

It was barely there, but it was evident.

'Ah, my beautiful mate is pregnant. God, it's so hot and I want to fuck her so bad…'

Sakura reached out to Amane…*cough*...she tried to reach out to Amane, only to find her hands being tied up by a strong chain.
