Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse - Chapter 229 Twilight Zone
The girls were already in the bathroom when we walked in, and they were both standing on opposite sides while they glared at each other.
“Okay, what is really going on?” I asked as I looked between them while Melody floated over to stand next to Katie.
“She’s just jealous because I have had sex with you more since everything happened! You were having sex with him before this happened!” Marley snapped, and Katie rolled her eyes.
“Please, I have only had sex with Daniel four times. You had to tell me all about what happened!” Katie said, and I pinched the bridge of my nose to stop myself from growling in frustration.
“You asked me! That is not what this is about, and you know it! You are just jealous because I am stronger than you,” Marley snapped, and Katie took a step towards her with her hands clenched into fists.
“You are not stronger than me! I will be stronger than you in no time!” Katie shouted as she tried to take a swing at Marley, but Melody flew between them and held her back while Marley just laughed at her angrily.
“Okay, that is enough out of both of you! We are going to take a bath together so that we can all relax,” I interjected before they could start fighting again.
The girls both looked at each other for a few seconds before turning back to look at me with resignation on their faces.
“Fine,” they both muttered before they started taking their clothes off.
I loved all the girls, but this was the first time that I had seen any of them fight like this. I really hoped that this wasn’t really over me, but if it was, I was going to have to find some way to smooth things out between them. This was not really the time, but there never really seemed to be time for anything lately.
“Melody, do you mind taking Dawn with you?” I asked, looking at Dawn, who was standing at the bathroom entrance, watching everything curiously. “I need to talk to the girls for a bit.”
“Sure thing, Daniel,” Melody said as she scooped Dawn up into her arms and flew out the door.
“Okay, now that we are alone, what is really going on?” I asked as I looked at the girls who were both sitting on opposite sides of the bathtub while they glared at each other.
“She’s just jealous because you have been paying more attention to me lately,” Marley said in a huff while Katie snorted.
“Please, you are just Imaginary, so you don’t count,” Katie snapped, and Marley’s eyes widened in anger before she lunged for Katie, but she was pulled back as green vines burst from the walls.
“Holy shit, can we please just get to the point?! Katie, what the fuck is going on? Since when did you start acting like this?” I snapped, finally losing my cool, and Katie looked away from where she was pinned to the wall.
“I don’t want to talk about it,” Katie said, and I groaned, letting her go from the wall.
“Then just come and soak with me for a bit, one on each side. We will just sit and relax for now,” I said as I finally slipped into the green water.
The in-ground tub wasn’t huge, but it easily fit all three of us if we wanted to be close. The girls both slowly made their way over and sunk into the water on either side of me while they continued to glare at each other.
“This is so relaxing,” Marley said after a few minutes while she leaned her head back against the edge of the tub and closed her eyes with a contented sigh.
“Yeah, it is,” Katie agreed, but she still didn’t look at Marley, and I sighed, reaching out to take one of her hands in mine.
“Please, just tell me what is going on,” I pleaded, and Katie finally looked at me with resignation on her face before she took a deep breath.
“I am just jealous because everything seems so perfect for Marley. I feel like you want her more than you want me, and I know that is stupid and irrational, but I can’t help how I feel,” Katie finally admitted, and my heart constricted in my chest.
“Oh, Katie, that is not true at all. I love you just as much as I love Marley. You are both so important to me,” I told her earnestly, and she finally looked at me with hope in her eyes.
“You really mean that?” She asked, and I nodded before pulling her into a hug while Marley watched us with a small smile on her face.
“Of course I do. You are both my everything,” I told her before kissing her lightly on the lips while Marley slipped out of the tub to give us some privacy. “I know that I haven’t been around much lately, but I promise that I will make more time for you. I just need to save the world and stuff. You know, basic stuff that I can’t just brush off.”
“I know, Daniel, and I am not mad at you. I understand why you have been so busy lately,” Katie said as she ran her fingers through my hair soothingly. “I just miss you sometimes.”
“I know, baby, but I am here now,” I told her as we kissed again deeply while the water around us started bubbling gently. “The world doesn’t stop when we do, but once the Drakar and Gideons are dealt with, I will be taking more time for you girls, I promise. I was so surprised when I saw you two fighting, considering you had asked me to come for a threesome.”
“Yeah, it was my fault for asking. I told Kaite about our time and then asked her about yours. She didn’t want to tell me, but then when I got it out of her… I felt like you put more effort in with her time than ours…” Katie explained and then slid down into the water.
“You do remember that I built this gigantic dome that is over two hundred feet tall, right?” I asked with a grin as I looked down at her, and Katie blew some bubbles in frustration before coming back up to speak.
“I know! I was being stupid and irrational! I already said that! I am just getting close, so I am just a bit moody! It’s not like I can see… what are you doing?” Katia asked as I placed a hand on her head and spiked her, giving her chemical level a reset, and then Katie flinched and blinked. “What the fuck? Did you really just… What just happened? Why do I clearly know that I was being irrational and that I should probably go and say sorry to-”
*BANG!* went the door, and a very angry-looking Spanish woman was glaring at me. I knew who it was, but the way she was staring daggers at me kinda made me wish I was someone else.
“PAPI! What is the meaning of this?! What did you do to Abrol… VIEJO!!” Sofia yelled at me, but she was ripped out of the doorway and sent flying as Dawn walked back in.
“That creature is the rudest human that you connect yourself… Oof!” Dawn started to say but was clipped in the side of the head with a rocket slipper and knocked into the bathtub with Katie and me.
“You stupid tree are supposed to be a man! Not some hottie!” Sofia snapped as she marched back into the room but was promptly slapped in the face by a hand that stuck out from the wall.
“Call me an old tree or stupid one more time. I have bark that is older than you and far wiser. You should respect your elders-” Dawn started to say as she stuck her head out of the wall, but Sofia smacked her face. “Ouch, you bitch!”
I had just stepped into the twilight zone… no, it must be a full moon? Blue one? What in the fuck was actually going on? Was this going to be a going thing of everyone deciding to fall apart on the least convenient days possible?
“Stop,” I said, and both women froze with their hands up, turning to look at me. “God help you both if you don’t shut up and get in the bath.”
For someone trying to stop human-on-human violence, I was doing a piss poor job.
“Sofia, is it your time of the month soon?” I asked as the two women’s clothes fell off almost in sync, and then they got in the tub, but Sofia scowled at me.
“What does that matter?!” Sofia snapped.
“Because you look like you need a fucking snickers!” I snapped, and Sofia raised a finger to stab at me, but her serious face cracked, and she started to laugh, and I groaned, grabbing her hand.
Sofia’s eyes snapped out as I quickly balanced her damn hormones and then glared at Dawn, but she just shook her head and crossed her arms over her supple and soft-looking chest.
“I don’t need that stuff, so I don’t get moody. This woman is just the height of irritation,” Dawn said, and Sofia snorted.
“You just need to get laid, and I won’t be as irritating. Thank you, Papi, but I still think you should stick this one back in the tree. She is more than likely bad news,” Sofia said in a matter-of-fact voice.
“I will get that from Daniel. As for you, it is not like the wicked slipper-throwing witch of the west is much better than my slight irritability,” Dawn said, turning her nose up at Sofia, who was already reaching for one of her slippers.
“Well, today has been eventful, right?” Katie asked with a forced smile, and I sank into the water with a long sigh.
