Rise of the Cosmic_Emperor

For hours they continued in that position and when it was time to switch, they would have a cleansing session by Hal's powers and they would restart as though they had not taken a break.

In terms of intensity, the sessions only rose, and with the many warped hours that passed and turned into days, Adeline got deeper and deeper into the wonderful passions that were sharing Hal's bed.

Adeline was not never short of energy and her experience improved the longer it all went on with her ability to please Hal with her hands and mouth improving incredibly much to Hal's delight... And hers, as well as Hal, had them sharing pleasure which increased how good they both felt by at least five times.

With Hal, no woman starts a sexual session with him and comes out of it the same as the start and that was very true for Adeline who felt her very identity getting reimagined as Hal's property.

Family became second place and her goal, if she ever had one, became tied and ingrained with Hal's purpose which was revealed to her during intercourse.

Of course, not everything was revealed as Hal still very much valued keeping certain things close to belt but enough was revealed to Adeline for her to begin to dream of the glory she would share by doing her part to help Hal accomplish his goals.

Anyway, they spent days in the hall, days that all translated to one day in the outside world and when it ended, it ended with an interesting clean-up session within a large pool that Hal made appear in the hall just for that very purpose.

It had been a marathon during which Hal had extensively taken the woman's holes and filled her with a mighty amount of essence that she proceeded to refine and add to the reserve she was amassing for advancement.

When it all came to an end, with the flow of time returning to normal, Hal exited the pool to put on a robe of a simple design, but incredible material to reflect not only his status but his power as well.

It was about time he started dressing the part, especially with the Sapphirine Cult now going public.

Adeline bit her lower lip as she watched him get dressed and there was almost an urge to tear it apart and engage him in yet another sexual session. Just a quick one before he went off to take care of things.

She wondered how he would react if she were to do that but before she could make her thoughts known or have him react to it without her saying a word, a knock sounded on the double doors.

Hearing the knock, Hal just rolled his eyes,

"Come in," he said, and rather than having the doors swing open, space warped a few feet away from where Hal stood, and out of that warp stepped Melinda.

"What was the point of the knock then?" Hal asked in reference to the space warping.

He has known who was at the doors and his eye roll had been because of how unnecessary the knock was in the first place.

"I wanted to respect your privacy," Melinda said and her eyes went over to Adeline who was still in the pool with an instinctive arm over her breasts and the other hand covering her crotch.

Melinda just smiled and had her eyes roam over the woman's body appreciatively.

"Nice, always knew you were covering up a lot," she said which caused Adeline's cheeks to flush but it did make her feel more relaxed. The longer Melinda eyed her, the sillier Adeline felt for covering her private parts.

When she put her arm down and took her hand off her crotch, Melinda gave a small chuckle,

"Not too much of a prude. Good. You'll come to learn that Prudish natures have no place here..." she said and then looked over at Hal.

She started with the news of Hugh having been made Patriarch of the Dane Family and subsequently becoming Duke.

Her father and uncle became Patrons and they filled those positions with enough enthusiasm. Damien appeared to be depressed with his lot but Melinda noted a possible improvement the more time he spent as a Patron and even if he did not improve, she honestly could not care less.

The Elders were right in saying Hugh was still young... While he had been trained ever since Melinda was exiled in the proper power mindset of the position he was to fill, he had not truly been tutored in the political skills he required.

That did not present an issue though and he was clearly ready and willing to learn. He was collaborating with Ford Horst, the Mayor of Sapphire City as well as Selina, the High Priestess of the Cult so he was in good hands as far as his reign as Duke was concerned.

After speaking of Hugh and the Dane Family, Melinda shifted to the Empire rulers with a fairly expected start,

"The Harons have been very threatening.

They are ready to attack the Cult and ever since the message declaring the takeover, they have swarmed the Duchy with orders to desist." she said.

Hal had returned to sit on his throne with his hand stroking his beardless cheek as he said,

"To be expected"

Hal had not really been updated about matters while he was busy with Adeline mostly due to him focusing on their activities and his forces did not consider the matters serious enough to actively disturb him.

If he wished to know, all he had to do was indicate with the smallest mental prompt, and all would be relayed to him but he had not asked, and had thus, not been disturbed.

Telling him now that he was done with his carnal activities could have been done telepathically but why the hell would Melinda do that when they were in the capital together? Well, only kind of in the capital together as Sapphire City territory was being considered separate from the capital.

Melinda responded,

"True, but they've doubled down on the other three Duchys around the Imperial City.

The persecution of anything even remotely relating to the Cult is being shut down.

The Doxon Duchy in particular is being very cooperative with the Herons. Kirill Doxon has been vocally expressive of his detest for the Sapphirine Cult."Melinda said and she walked over to Hal to take a seat on his lap and as she proceeded to lounge in his lap, she said,

"We've obviously taken steps to stop any infiltration. No teleportation Circle will let them in. That said, I feel interested in taking pacifying trips" she spoke with a smile while thrusting her hand into his upper garment to rub against his chest.

She occasionally kissed him on any exposed flesh and always gave a satisfied moan whenever she did.

Hal had a hand on one of her breasts just holding on to it almost absentmindedly and giving it a squeeze now and then.

Melinda's moans might have been very toned down but the satisfaction they were expressing was loud to the only other person in the hall.

Adeline felt like she was trespassing on an intimate moment (she was) but she had no interest in leaving and giving them privacy.

Her presence did not stop the two though and that was likely because they were not touching each other to initiate intercourse but rather just keeping their hands busy while they conversed.

Speaking of conversation, it was punctuated with moans (from Melinda) but it never stopped or had a long pause.

"Pacifying trips? To where exactly? ," Hal asked in his calm mellifluous tone.

"To the Doxon Duchy. I realize I might have inadvertently let the Dane family's programming get to me if I ever wrote off a visit to Doxon. There is absolutely nothing off-putting about the Duchy that is out of place for me.

I have, after all, bedded the Devil.

Calling it a pacifying trip is just me labeling a desire to meet my mother-in-law face to face for the first time" Melinda said.

It did not matter that she now knew the actual genealogy of Hal and how he could not be identified as Svetlana's son, whose soul was likely roaming the Nether Realm. She still wanted to make the trip.

Hal had no problem with Melinda's destination but the plan of what Melinda would be occupied with besides leading the Legion in battle, had mostly revolved around her return to the Royal Academy with a possible takeover but a takeover was hardly a priority.

The main reason for Melinda's return was the Empress and her scrolls which Melinda had use for.

Now she wished to postpone a reunion with the Empress by first visiting Svetlana in Doxon.

Melinda did go on to say that Valerie would be returning to the Royal Academy to likely take her place as the Pseudo-Elder she was.

And this was where Melinda engaged Adeline in the conversation,

"What?" Adeline had not heard her all that well because she was getting more disconnected from their conversation mostly due to a lack of engagement.

"Are you up for a return to the Academy? You'll be returning with Valerie, Nicole, and a few other members of the Sapphirine Guild." Melinda said.

"Oh, that sounds great. I was considering returning anyway." Adeline said and she stepped out of the pool, dried herself off, and donned a form-fitting gown.

"Nice" Melinda said with a smile. Whether it was referring to Adeline's acceptance to return to the Royal Academy or it was referring to Adeline's body was not clear but either of those two was worthy of her commending words.
