RISE OF EROS

When asked, Helena expressed her concerns, "I am worried about Kalifa. That girl is overexerting herself again. I have tried to keep an eye on her, but she is still staying up late to write."

Andrew wrinkled his eyebrows upon hearing this. Kalifa was a workaholic and despite his efforts to make her relax, she always found a way to overdo it. Experience tales at empire

"If you came here it is because you have a solution. Tell me," Andrew said, knowing his wife well, and Helena, smiling, said, "I think it's time to add her as a sister."

Andrew's eyes widened when he heard her. Certainly, they had at some point discussed adding Kalifa to the harem, but it was always as a joke, however, looking at Helena now, Andrew knew she wasn't joking.

As if understanding Andrew's thoughts, Helena continued speaking, "This has already been discussed between us and we agree." Andrew wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Candice as if seeking confirmation and she simply nodded.

"What about Victoria?" Andrew asked. She had only recently joined them and although their feelings were settling, the seal of wife had yet to appear on her.

Victoria had even asked about it because all the wives had that seal and that made her curious. Because of this, she already knew that it was the mark that proved that she was Andrew's wife and although she did not know how to obtain it, for her not having it had depressed her a little, and if they now added another woman, Andrew thought it could depress her even more.

"Don't worry, she gave the go-ahead too," Helena responded. Although reluctant, Andrew could not dismiss his wives intentions, but he did not accept immediately, as it was not something they could do just because they wanted to.

Kalifa had to accept and Andrew would not force her so he said, "Let me talk to her first and then we will discuss that matter." Helena looked at him and, nodding, said, "Well, but keep in mind that that girl will end up sick at the rate she is going."

"Still, it is not a sufficient reason to add her as my wife. You know me well and you know that I will not pick up women just for personal gain," Andrew replied seriously.

It was not the first time that Andrew had the opportunity to add a new wife based on the benefits he could obtain and he has always been reluctant to do so. In fact, with Victoria, that rule was broken in a way, but since they have feelings for each other he let it go.

It is certainly not love yet, but it seems to be headed towards that, so Andrew had no problem accepting the political marriage, but with Kalifa, it is different, since they do not have affectionate feelings between them.

It is true that since Kalifa joined them as a writer, they have interacted a lot, but it is always about the plots of the novels and ideas about what she should write, never about personal topics.

For this reason, her situation is different from Victoria and Andrew would not accept it so easily. Both Helena and the other wives knew this and that is why they had not proposed this until now, but Kalifa's situation is problematic.

Actually, Andrew's wives had accepted Kalifa to be part of the harem, but it was more with the intention of protecting her from getting sick from excessive work than from the fact that she was like them.

Their thinking is simple, Kalifa is a rare talent that they don't want to lose and she is helping them make money and if she becomes their wife, she will be forced to sleep with them which would save them a lot of trouble.

It was a strange situation, as Andrew's wives now no longer worried about the size of the harem, but rather about Andrew's well-being. They would be lying if they said they don't mind adding women to the harem who don't love Andrew, but they also see things from a business point of view.

In this world, it is not frowned upon for people to marry each other with the goal of earning something and although the girls were a little uncomfortable about adding Kalifa to the harem, they saw the bigger picture and reluctantly agreed.

Their problem is that Andrew doesn't have to go along with them in this regard. Andrew wouldn't give in on this particular case, but it was also true that he couldn't allow Kalifa to continue the way she was going, so he had to take action.

Although Andrew said he would talk to Kalifa and see how things worked, he wasn't really trying to add her as one of his wives and was thinking of solutions to the problem.

Helena knew him very well, so she immediately understood Andrew's intentions, but she didn't say anything. She understood that he was the one with the last word and she only made a proposal.

With that defined, Helena excused herself saying, "Well, I'll let you continue. Close the door". Helena ran away quickly enough to not allow either Candice or Andrew to scold her for her behavior.

Despite that, the atmosphere had been ruined, so they couldn't pick up where they left off. Since the atmosphere had already died down, Andrew decided to go visit Kalifa and chat with her.

Kalifa's room is one of the VIP rooms in the Dunnas Palace. Even though she is a slave and an employee, the reality is that she makes a lot more money than everyone else, so Andrew gives her special treatment.

When he arrived at the room where she was staying, he entered without knocking on the door, since Kalifa is still a slave and Andrew allowed himself to be a little dominant, since if he gave her many advantages, the elf could take advantage of it.

Upon entering, he could see Kalifa sitting at the desk writing at breakneck speed. Andrew was surprised to see her writing because her hand moved very quickly and seemed to defy reality.

He had never seen her working, he had only discussed some of her stories verbally and only read her partial and completed novels. After getting out of his shock, Andrew did not interrupt her, as he did not want to take her out of her state of concentration.

So he took a seat on one of the nearby sofas and waited for Kalifa to take a breath to speak. Surprisingly, Kalifa stopped after an hour, which surprised Andrew again.

He couldn't understand how she could write for so long without resting. You have to remember that she writes by hand, which is not only substantially more difficult but also more exhausting.

Finishing her writing, Kalifa raised her head and jumped in surprise when she saw Andrew since she had not noticed him. Andrew smiled when he saw her reaction and motioning to her, he asked her to sit with him.

From the look on her face, it was obvious that she didn't want to stop her work. She possibly had the idea of ​​what she wanted to write in her mind, but she still obeyed, because Andrew is still her master.

After Kalifa sat down on the couch across from Andrew she asked, "Is something wrong?", to which Andrew responded in a roundabout way, "You're violating our agreement."

Kalifa didn't seem to understand and couldn't help asking, "What agreement?" and Andrew again responded directly, "The agreement to rest well." Kalifa immediately looked away upon hearing Andrew.

She had a guilty conscience because she understood that she had been discovered writing at night. When Andrew understood that Kalifa was addicted to writing, he made her promise that she should eat 3 meals a day, use the beauty products they gave her and she should sleep at least 8 hours a day at night.

Andrew even forced her to do some yoga exercises every day, but Kalifa barely complied with the meals and exercises and that was only because Helena forced her.

It is for this reason that when Andrew brought this up for discussion, she did not dare to look him in the face. Andrew let out a sigh of resignation and said firmly, "If you don't comply with the agreement, I will have to force you."

The implications were obvious. Andrew was telling her that he would use his authority over the bondage soul seal to force her. Kalifa trembled immediately because she knew that it would be unbearable pain if Andrew used it.

Despite that, she dared to claim, "I don't understand what the problem is. Anyone would be happy to see their slaves overworked," to which Andrew responded, "I'm not just anyone."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Kalifa lowered her head depressed and a little happy. What Andrew asked of her was for her good and she still refused. Besides, she was glad that he cared about her, but she really couldn't stand her urge to write.

At that moment Fluffy spoke to Andrew in his mind, "Master, that girl is letting herself be dominated by her blessing. That is why she insists on writing even at the cost of her health, she must stop it or she will have problems."

"Any ideas?" Andrew asked, but Fluffy replied, "I'm sorry, I'll participate until this point. The rest is up to you." Andrew sighed upon hearing those words because although he knew that Fluffy would not help him, he did not lose hope.

Despite everything, he had an idea and said, "From today on, Sofia will sleep with you and she will keep an eye on you. If you continue to default I will be forced to hurt you. Kalifa, don't force me."

Kalifa knew that Andrew was serious and could only accept the conditions and Andrew, seeing that the elf understood, stood up, approached her and gently lifting her chin, looked into her eyes for a while, and seeing that the girl really understood him, he smiled.
