Gardenia’s Heart
Chapter 80: Morning Routine
Gardenia, the metamorph, had some rather unique morning habits.
“Nhmm... Nhm... Ah... Lily...”
While licking Lily’s hardened nipple, Nia fiercely fingered her own soaked clit.
“Lily... Ah!”
Moans mixed with her wife’s name, and finally, the metamorph reached her limit. In one go, a large amount of her love juice spilled onto the sheets.
“Lily... I love you, Lily, I love you.” Nia, her legs trembling, hugged her beloved’s body with all her strength.
As she continued to release more love juice, Nia pressed her body as tightly as possible against Lily’s. The sensation she felt was so comforting that it took several minutes for her breathing to calm down and for her to sit up in bed.
With her cheeks flushed, Nia watched as Lily continued to sleep peacefully with a smile on her face.
Throughout their week of rest, since she didn’t need to sleep, Nia spent the entire night studying her spells and watching Lily sleep.
One early morning, Nia noticed that Lily wouldn’t wake up from her mischievous touches, and this intrigued the girl, who began studying how deep her wife’s sleep was. While caressing her, Nia noticed something—in fact, Lily’s sleepy body would encourage Nia to continue, hugging her tightly even though the girl was still asleep.
In one of her tests, Nia went too far and overstimulated Lily’s body, and that same night, the sleepwalking Lily grabbed her body and masturbated her so relentlessly that when Lily woke up a dozen minutes later, Nia could no longer feel her legs from climaxing so much.
With this, the metamorph discovered that if she didn’t actively try to wake Lily, the sleepy girl wouldn’t wake up, but if she called her for something, she would immediately awaken for her.
When Nia mentioned this, Lily told her that she had indeed had a very vivid dream involving Nia and that she couldn’t control herself from loving her. Lily explained that she loved her wife so immensely that even during sleep, she would be giving her love. Permitting Nia to have as much fun as she wanted.
Although she didn’t do it every day, some mornings the metamorph couldn’t resist and sought out Lily to receive her love.
“Nhmm... We’ll do more when you wake up~”
Nia had already recorded at least one thousand one hundred and twelve different sleep patterns of Lily. They changed constantly throughout the night, but they had unique characteristics that, if calmly analyzed, could stand out from other patterns. Watching her beloved wife happily rubbing against her body, Nia knew that, following this pattern, Lily would wake up fully in exactly seventeen minutes and nineteen seconds.
Dressing in her black dress with a snap of her fingers, Nia gently kissed Lily’s forehead and used her tentacles to wrap around the girl, keeping her safe.
“I’ll be back before you wake up.”
Creating a portal that resembled a starry sky, Nia crossed it with a small leap. On the other side, a woman was already waiting silently, her head pressed so firmly against the ground that it seemed glued there.
"I mentioned during dinner that I would come in the morning. So why did you stay awake all night?"
Nia's voice was expressionless, but her face revealed hints of exasperation at the unnecessary actions.
"I would never make you wait, oh Grand Lady Gardenia. Please, don't concern yourself with this foolish girl. To what do I owe the honor of your visit?"
Selene lay prostrate on the floor, her forehead against the wooden boards, with no sign of her stardust brush.
The newly appointed three-star mage and headmistress of the Mage Academy now wore modest clothing instead of her usual extravagant attire. Thanks to her mana localization ability, Nia could see the chaos in Selene’s wardrobe, indicating that the girl had spent quite some time choosing what to wear for some reason.
Walking slowly to Selene’s desk, Nia sat on the wooden table and crossed her legs. Selene, still at her feet, never raised her head—she simply shifted her position to face the girl.
Nia couldn't understand why Selene chose to treat her this way. Lily had never taught her about this kind of interaction between people, so it must not be important. Therefore, she decided not to dwell on it.
Selene seemed willing to listen to her even without Lily's presence, and that was enough.
"That demon, Orlaith, created her weapon of mass destruction using various types of magical conductor minerals she obtained in this region. Focus on investigating how much stardust was purchased. I need to compare it to the amount she used in the Seed of Chaos to estimate how much she still has for future creations. Additionally, look into possible export routes they might have used to Finis, prioritizing the entire length of the lake and the rivers connected to the ocean. I'm almost certain that the leviathan's role was to transport excess minerals directly to her personal laboratory. Don’t rely on current maps that may have been tampered with—search the ancient archives."
Nia explained everything at once, trusting in the intelligence of the rabbit-eared girl to understand without needing any repetition.
"Certainly! I will make sure to meet your expectations!" Selene responded with immediate determination.
"Since you take such pride in your strength and intelligence, it shouldn't be too hard for you to figure it out, right?"
Although she didn’t know much about Selene, Nia understood the importance of recognizing someone's efforts. Lily had always taught her to be polite, especially to those deserving of respect. Therefore, she thought it appropriate to compliment Selene, so the girl would understand why Nia had made the request directly to her.
However, Selene felt her entire body freeze at those words, as they carried an entirely different meaning for her.
There was no other possible interpretation. It was obvious to Selene that the being before her remembered how she had foolishly challenged her wife to a duel.
Yes, wife.@@novelbin@@
The rabbit-eared girl vividly recalled how Gardenia had appeared instantly in the dining hall, as though she were always by Lily's side.
So she heard what I said back then, didn't she?
The thought began to hammer through Selene's mind incessantly.
As if challenging her to a fight wasn’t bad enough, she had even flirted with that being's beloved.
Selene had always been unlucky in love, but she couldn’t accept that her own lust had endangered her life.
"Forgive my audacity and arrogance, Grand Lady Gardenia!" Selene shouted, bowing even lower. The rabbit-eared girl with twin tails trembled as she spoke.
Selene didn’t know what she needed to do to atone for her mistakes and spare her life. However, she concluded that if she served the being before her well, she might survive.
With one hand resting on her chin, Nia observed the woman who had become a friend to her wife, her expression confused as she struggled to understand why Selene spoke with such energy.
"When I recovered enough energy to fight, I tried to go to Finis to check Orlaith's demise, but I discovered that the coordinates I had previously obtained were now useless. Can you think of a reason for that?" Nia asked, subtly swinging her crossed legs, her face inquisitive.
Selene needed a moment to reflect upon hearing those words. Her rabbit ears betrayed her desire to remain inconspicuous, twitching subtly from side to side as she believed she had formulated an answer.
"When it comes to spells that require precise coordinates, they can be countered with the use of sensory barriers, Grand Lady Gardenia," she replied in a low tone.
Nia remained silent, her thoughtful expression suggesting she was trying to understand Selene's words.
"So altering living beings' perception of the world doesn't actually mean altering the world's order itself..."
Creating a small portal between her fingers, Nia attempted to physically move it. However, no matter how much force she applied, the ethereal structure that resembled a starry sky would not shift position.
Even though her spell manipulated space and expanded the fabric of reality, it was not considered something that defied the world's natural order.
"Can you list the properties of the barrier?" Nia asked, realizing she needed to research more about spells to expand her understanding of what her magic could accomplish.
"Since it’s an ancient-era spell, access to research on it is still highly restricted. Unfortunately, I can’t provide more information, Grand Lady Gardenia. However, I do know that the royal castle has a barrier to prevent teleportation spells from being used, so it might be a good example for observation if you ever go there."
"I thought the only one who knew the Absolute Magic of teleportation was the head of the Mage Tower. Aren’t they on the same side? Why have a barrier?" Nia frowned slightly, puzzled by the response.
"Although the Mage Tower has sworn loyalty to the king, that doesn't mean they would never think of betraying him. Having the barrier under the excuse of protecting the king gives the kingdom an advantage against any possible attack from the tower and sends a message that they are always on guard against them," Selene explained in a low tone.
"Humans are strange..." Upon hearing those words, the purple-haired girl frowned even more.
Nia's simple statement, though unintentional, once again made it clear to Selene that she was not human.
"Forget about that for now. Changing the subject—although I'm not certain whether Orlaith was properly killed, I confirmed that at least the stigmas she had embedded in the resident cards, visitor hourglasses, and even people were destroyed," Nia said indifferently, finally seeming to get to the main point. "I need another favor. Later today, I want you to give Lily an introductory lesson on mana and spellcasting."
Those unexpected words made Selene lift her head and blink several times.
"For my Riva—!? I mean... for Lady Lily?" Covering her mouth to prevent the slip, Selene tilted her head in confusion, not understanding why such a powerful mage would need this.
"Yes. Can you do it or not?" Nia tilted her head doubtfully, speaking in a low tone. Lily had mentioned that Selene was very busy, so Nia wondered whether the girl would have time for it.
"I can, yes! Forgive me for questioning your words!" Selene, however, completely misunderstanding the question, responded with resolute determination.
“Thank you.” Standing up with her eyes closed and making sure to express gratitude just as Lily had taught her, Nia faced the wall for a brief moment before opening her eyes. “I’m going now, thank you again for your time.”
Opening a portal that resembled a starry sky, Nia walked through it back to a room she knew well.
Letting her high heels dissolve and return to her body, Nia climbed onto the large bed and slowly crawled to a specific spot.
At the exact moment her analysis concluded that Lily would wake up, teary eyes of different colors opened subtly, and two arms wrapped around her body in a tight hug.
“Good morning, Nia~”
“Good morning, Lily!”
Saying good morning to Lily the moment she woke up was an inseparable part of their morning routine. With a smile from ear to ear, the girl delighted in the kiss she received and the mischievous fingers caressing her entire body.
“Oh... what do we have here?”
While caressing her wife, Lily felt a wet liquid coating her fingers as she began to feel Nia’s thighs. Spreading the girl’s legs and lifting her dress, her eyes could see how utterly soaked Nia was.
“You had fun this morning, didn’t you? You little rascal~”
When the teasing voice graced her ears, Nia gently pulled the sheet to cover her blushing face.
“I’m sorry...”
With her cheeks red, Nia struggled to look Lily in the eyes now that she had been caught.
“Why are you apologizing? I’ve already told you, Nia, I would never be mad at something like this coming from you.” Pulling the sheet away from her wife and kissing her forehead multiple times, Lily slowly leaned closer to her ears. “Knowing that you love me so much that sometimes you can’t control yourself because of it is a cute part of you that I'm loving discovering.”
Nia always learned spells and magic quickly, but when it came to herself, she always had difficulties. Seeing her wife striving every day to learn on her own, and discovering new feelings, filled Lily with immeasurable joy.
Every part of Nia was important to Lily, and she wanted her wife to understand each of them at her own pace, including her carnal desires.
The Metamorph sometimes felt so much passion for Lily that in certain moments she couldn’t control herself. Lily would always help her if she was awake, but when she was asleep, Nia decided she didn’t want to bother her to the point of trying to learn how to masturbate without her guidance.
“Tell me, Nia, what do you think about when you masturbate?” Lily asked, stroking her wife’s purple hair.
From the moment they met in the village, Nia had grown more and more, and Lily would help her wife as much as necessary to ensure this continued in the best way possible.
“Mnmm... When I do it... I only think about Lily... Only about Lily...”
Gently placing Nia’s head on her lap, Lily began to trace her soaked clit with her thumb. Each of her movements made Nia whimper softly with joy.
“Mmmnh...”
Nia felt her lower lips being teased, the pressure applied specifically to the various spots she loved sending shivers down her spine.
Every time Lily increased the pace and intensity slightly, she could feel Nia’s warm body twitch slightly from the waves of pleasure flooding her mind.
“You need to be more specific, my naughty girl.” Making sure Nia’s eyes could only see her and nothing else, Lily curled her lips into a smile. “What about me do you think of?”
It didn’t take a second for the answer to come.
“Lily’s beautiful smile... Mnnnn... Ahh... the way you give me affection... the way you hold me in your lap... the gentle way Lily loves me... I love all of it....”
Lily could feel her cheeks heating up, the compliments from the person she loved most making her fingers grow more intense.
In a quick motion, Lily brought her fingers to her mouth, fervently licking Nia’s love juice before inserting them into her wife’s vagina.
“Nyaaah!” Nia moaned intensely, her little hands gripping Lily’s waist. Her wife understood her so well that Nia couldn’t help but moan.
Even though Lily’s fingers weren’t as big or thick as her cock, Nia could never resist them. The way Lily knew exactly which parts of her vaginal walls to stimulate made Nia certain she could never avoid climaxing from the girl’s fingers.
“What else did you think about? I know my naughty wife imagined more than just that.”
The girl teased, but not for a moment did she stop her movements.
“I thought about Lily’s big breasts... I imagined your soft skin... I imagined Lily touching me.”
Nia spoke shyly, unsure if what she was doing was right or wrong.
“Don’t worry, my love, you can imagine them as much as you want without any guilt. I’ve told you this before—as my wife, only you have that right. This is something I’ve granted to you and no one else in the entire world.”
When those words were spoken, Nia felt so much relief that she tightened her grip on her wife’s waist even more. Her teary red eyes focused on Lily’s face.
“And in the same way, I can’t go a day without thinking about how beautiful you are, Nia. Your face is so cute, your butt is so big! The way your eyes look at me like I’m someone special—I love all of it!” Stroking Nia’s purple hair, Lily continued to stimulate her vagina without pause.
Leaning forward, Lily then pressed her enormous breasts against her beloved’s cheek, encouraging her to suck on them as much as she wanted.
Placing her tongue on the already erect nipple, Nia took it into her mouth, and wet sounds began to fill the room.
Loving and being loved in return was the most precious feeling the girl had. Nia was happy, far happier than she ever thought she could be in her life.
She knew she needed to grow as a person, and when she did something right and Lily acknowledged her efforts, Nia couldn’t help but feel joy.
“I’m cumming, Lily...! Cumming...!”
With just light stimulation, Nia’s body trembled, and a large amount of love juice gushed out of her.
Her tongue fell out of her mouth. The flood of pleasure overwhelmed her mind, her eyes rolled back, and her body felt lighter with each passing second.
Even after the orgasm, the girl continued to cling to her wife, her heart unwilling to part from her.
“Don’t worry, we have plenty of time before breakfast.”
Grabbing the tentacles already orbiting around her, Lily flashed a teasing smile, assuring Nia that she would always be by her side.
Kissing her wife’s face while slowly spreading her legs, Lily felt her entire body warm up as the girl in front of her firmly gripped her back with her arms.
“It’s okay, you can leave everything to your wife, Nia~”
