Lord of Charm

The door creaked open and Nancy entered his room. She was wearing a pink nightgown which highlighted her deep cleavage and thick thighs.

Like her daughter, she had pink eyes and blonde hair. Her sleek hair was voluminous and combed elegantly down to tailbone length. Even more than her impressive assets, Gale found her hair to be her most attractive trait.

Her stature was quite short at 165 cm, and her slender waist made her bubble butt all the more eye-catching. Her face was mature, yet its round shape gave a younger feeling, especially since it had no stains or wrinkles.

Gale looked at her wriggle her way toward him, wondering what she was there for.

"Hello, Lady Nancy. Why are you visiting your son-in-law in the middle of the night?"

"I'm just so busy during the day, so if I waited for a chance to meet you during day time it might take too long. I want to get to know the man who married my daughter, is it not natural?"

She said with an innocent smile and sat on his bed by his side, her thigh only a few centimeters away from his.

"It is natural to be curious about your daughter's husband. But shouldn't we meet in a place more… formal?"

"We are family, why do we need to be formal with each other?"

All her arguments made sense, yet Gale wasn't as naïve anymore, especially when it came to other nobles. He might have thought commoners didn't scheme much, but he was always careful toward other nobles.

"That's true. But isn't it inappropriate for us to be alone in my room in the middle of the night, especially when you're in a nightgown?"

"I was about to go to sleep when I thought to visit you, thus, I'm wearing a nightgown. Don't overthink it, sweetheart. Or… you can't control your thoughts when you see me?"

Gale looked at her suspiciously and ignored her teasing question. This endearing way of addressing him is exactly what would make others overthink.

"So, how should we get to know each other better?"

"How about you tell me why you're interested in a woman weaker than you and of a lower status?"

"Don't you believe in true love?"

"Oh, I do. But you have barely interacted with each other, so I doubt love had anything to do with your decision. I'm worried you might have hidden motives in marrying my sweet daughter."

"Then, don't you believe in love at first sight?"

"Don't be cheeky, you'd try to interact with her more often if you truly felt that way."

Nancy wasn't satisfied with such answers. She caressed Gale's hair and leaned closer.

"How about we start slowly; tell me your favorite food and I'll tell the servants to serve it tomorrow."

It was beef tongue with spicy sauce. Nancy got up slowly after getting his answer and promised to return when she has the time.

Gale wanted to charm her and find out why she was trying to get close to him when he is married to her daughter, but after his mother demonstrated older people's mental defense, he didn't feel safe to try.

The following day, Gale was left alone the whole morning. Even Nina was busy with her training, as she felt like she was going to be left behind by Lena and Gale soon, and didn't like the feeling of being useless. She was promoted to the expert magician stage 5 years when she was 25 years old, and she had her own pride.

"Lord Gale, Lady Nancy has invited you to have lunch with her. She has instructed me to tell you she has kept her promise and hopes you will dine with her."

A servant's voice was heard beyond Gale's door, who was training his mana maneuvering skills. Gale expected that to happen, as she seemed eager to bond with him, so he quickly dressed up and followed the servant to the main dining room.

"I'm glad you've made time for me."

Nancy greeted him when he entered the room and he saw they were eating in front of each other at a small round table rather than the main long table. He sat in front of her, and the servants served the food; beef tongue as promised.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

As they ate and chatted, Gale suddenly felt something rubbing against his leg. He looked at Nancy, unable to say anything with the servants around. He felt her toes tease his leg, going up from his foot slowly to his knee.

"Mm, Lady Nancy, why didn't Atress come to see me today?"

Gale asked in an attempt to distract her into a conversation. He found it quite weird that Atress didn't even come to check on her new husband.

"Do you want to know her secret?"

Gale nodded curiously. He suspected there was something wrong with Atress ever since she lost interest in him.

"Come, lean closer. I can't have all the servants hear it."

Gale leaned closer above the table. He was slowly getting caught in Nancy's pace. He couldn't say he didn't enjoy the way her foot roamed all over his legs. He had a feeling it'd soon reach more prosperous lands in its journey.

Nancy stood up and brought her mouth to his ear.

"She only likes weak men who can only be at her feet…"

Gale's widened his eyes in surprise; it actually made sense! He was brought out from his surprise by a wet feeling on his earlobe, indicating he was just licked by the mature woman in front of him.

"…Unlike me. Don't be too disappointed; although you don't fit her taste anymore, you fit mine now."

Nancy sat back after finishing her sentence. Gale sat down and started thinking about his next move. He didn't know Lena's plans but felt they were going haywire since he couldn't even be with Atress anymore.

"I must go, Lady Nancy. Thank you for the food, it was delicious."

Gale got up and left her alone. He decided to go meet Atress and see if he can salvage the situation with his charm. He knocked on Atress' door and waited for a reply.

"Come in."

He entered and found her sitting in front of a desk and reading documents.

"What are you here for? You're free to go wherever you want in the mansion and can practice your magic in peace."

"Dear, we're married now, you should want to be in my presence. You should be excited to see me."

His green eyes shone as he activated his charm. He had apprehensions regarding charming an older mage, but none when it came to a young lady who was a stage weaker than him.

"I am happy to see you here, darling. May I help you with anything?"

Atress couldn't stop a surge of excitement and happiness. She felt lucky to have her husband come to visit her even though she has mistreated him. Suddenly, Atress believed that all preferences were irrelevant when compared to a man like Gale.

"Yes, dear. Why did you place me in a different room, and why didn't you come to visit me?"

"It was my mistake. I thought I only liked men who are nothing without me, who would depend on me completely. But now that I see you, I know I was wrong. I will always be by your side, my love."

Her pink eyes lost their focus, and she started feeling a twitch in her crotch after looking straight into Gale's eyes, and she could smell a faint scent from that direction.

"Would you be jealous if your mom flirted with me?"
