Chương 190: Chapter 191: Greedy and protective type

"Lorelie, what do you say?" Adam asked.

"I'm fine with it, I have no great beef with Becky since she helped me so much previously, I was actually considering talking to you in the future about forgiving her," Lorelie replied. [Beczontop (Imperial Down): Lorelie. 😭🥰]"What do you mean?" Adam asked.

"Well, it wasn't her fault that all this happened. Most of the time that I was on Terrana Five, she was accompanying me to show me around and acting as my protection detail. The only real time she wasn't with me was when I was preparing for the Terran celebration show, and at that time she was escorting Rowena, Tephe and Lord Malacoss." Lorelie explained. [OfficialRowena (Oceana 7): It's true.] [Thewhitesoverign (Oceana 7): Yup, we had lots of fun and Becky introduced me to lots of yummy food.] [DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): I can attest to this.] [OrangeeyedStace (Oceana 7): I don't care if Adam forgives her or not; however, she better not get any hopes up about fucking my man.] [Beczontop (Imperial Down): 😞]"Since Lorelie agrees, send the information to her once the stream ends, and after I read through it and consider your offer, I will have her send you my reply," Adam stated. [Tessisdabest (Imperial Down): That's fine.]"Good," Adam said as he and Lorelie went back to watching the water sphere match. Even though they did so, Adam wasn't fully concentrating on it as he was also thinking about whether he should accept Tessa's offer. What he didn't realise and only Lorelie noticed was that he absentmindedly started to caress her arm gently with the fingers of his hand that was wrapped around her shoulder.

Lorelie didn't comment on the matter as she greatly enjoyed the gentle touch he gave her, and as she focused on watching the match, a beautiful smile more radiant than any she had shown so far appeared. 💫💫💫"You sure this is a good idea? You know what you will have to put in that message, right?" Tessa asked after she finished her conversation with Adam in the chat.

"If the imperial family wants to earn his trust again, then they need to show a little trust themselves," Becky replied.

"Don't start acting all smart and noble when really you're just looking to get in his pants."

"So what if I am? That doesn't change the fact that my statement is correct."

"I guess you're right," Tessa said before contacting her mother using their cabin's console.

"Tessa dear, I was only expecting a message, not a holocall," Victoria said with a smile as a holographic screen of her appeared before them both.

"We need your permission to tell Adam about the traitor within the imperial family," Tessa replied, causing Victoria to frown.

"Explain?" Victoria asked before Tessa went on to explain her recent conversation with Adam.

"I wish you had asked me before promising this, Becky." Victoria said with a sigh before continuing, "If we don't send the information now, it will only make us look worse."

"Would you have given permission if we had asked prior?" Becky asked.

"Probably not, we don't want this information getting around after all."

"Exactly," Becky replied with a victorious smirk.

"You scheming little." Victoria said before asking, "Why can't you be this diligent when it comes to your TISF duties?"

"Because I have no interest in being with the TISF and am only here to look out for Tessa, you know that." This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

"I have told you before that I don't need you here and that if you don't enjoy this, you should leave," Tessa replied with a pout.

"As if I would ever leave my little cousin alone someplace dangerous. I may not enjoy being in the TISF very much, but I love being with you." Becky said as she hugged Tessa from behind.

"Get off," Tessa said with a smile.

"I'm happy to see that the relationship you two have is as close as ever," Victoria said with a loving smile towards the two girls before adding, "Very well, you may inform him. However, ask that he and Diva Lorelie not spread this information around and contact me when you have his answer." 💫💫💫"Do you think he will accept?" Erkath asked.

"Probably," Stacey replied.

"Oh, why do you say that, granddaughter?" Rowena asked.

"Because Lorelie wants him to. If she does indeed join me as one of his lovers, as it is looking, then he will most likely try to honour her request as he honoured mine about coming to see you." Stacey explained.

"I see," Rowena said thoughtfully.

"So does that mean if I make Adam my mate and ask to travel with him on his adventures forever, he will allow it?" Tephe asked curiously.

"I get the feeling that if you became his mate, he would never let you out of his sight for very long," Rowena replied with a smirk, as Stacey glared at her.

"Why do you say that?" Erkath asked curiously.

"Adam strikes me as the greedy and protective type. He protects his women like a dragon protects their treasure."

"You mean he will kill anyone who tries to take from him?" Tephe asked with great interest.

"Yes, we have already seen it with that drug dealer who was after Stacey on Trillion. And before, when I mentioned about him killing Murphy, he didn't deny it."

"That's kind of selfish of him, isn't it? He can take many lovers, but his lovers can't?" Erkath asked with a chuckle.

"Maybe he and his group will have the same dynamic as Kavita's. They are allowed to love each other, but no one from outside their group." Rowena replied.

"What say you, Stacey, you're already his woman after all?" Erkath asked as she looked at Stacey.

"All I know is that I need to have a serious conversation with Lorelie when they return," Stacey replied, making Rowena and Erkath chuckle while Tephe had a thoughtful expression. 💫💫💫"Oh, come on," Lorelie complained as the fangs scored again, increasing their lead. It was already well into the second half of the match, and even after Murphy had come back, the abes had not been able to pull off the same form they had at the very start of the match.

Murphy seemed distracted, and it was obvious to anyone who was watching the game what the reason for his distraction was. Every time he had the opportunity, he always seemed to gravitate towards the part of the pitch that was closest to where Adam and Lorelie's VIP area was. The two of them easily noticed the glances he kept shooting their way; however, it didn't affect them enough to stop their cuddling.

"Perhaps it was a bad idea to come if our public display of affection is going to influence the team," Adam said with a smirk. [MercheadAnderson (Palaxia): I can't fault the guy; if I saw you doing that with my wife, I would also be distracted.] [Lizziethetruepower (Palaxia): Perhaps I should have him do it then, to teach you how lucky you are to have me.] [MercheadAnderson (Palaxia): 😭] [AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): That guy never learns.] [Whostolemyduck (Earth): I can imagine Diva Lorelie has mixed feelings right now, on the one hand, she is cuddling up to the guy she likes, on the other, their cuddling is causing the team she supports to lose.] [OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): A true Water Sphere pro would be able to filter out distractions and focus on the game. This just goes to show that Murphy is not a true pro of the game.]"OH MY GOD."

Lorelie suddenly screamed with excitement, shocking Adam, the Merinmian bartender and all the viewers in the chat. [Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Holy fuck, that scared the shit out of me.] [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): What, what, what did I miss?] [Emojisonly (Earth): 😱] [Superior4horns (Vinox 3): What just happened?] [OfficialRowena (Oceana 7): Lorelie?] [LadyErkath (Oceana 7):???]"Err, Lorelie?" Adam asked in confusion.

"I can't believe Muriel is in your chat. I'm such a huge fan." Lorelie said in excitement. [Superior4horns (Vinox 3): Oh shit, she's right, I missed that for a second.]"Who?" Adam asked.

"She was a member of the Reef Galaxies' official winning team in the Universal Water Sphere Cup five times, and she led them as captain three of those times," Lorelie replied in excitement. Before adding.

"She is only officially recognised as the most famous and successful Water Sphere player of all time." [OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): Haha, thank you very much for the praise, Diva Lorelie. I am also a great fan of your music.]"Oh, you definitely have to come to one of my shows when I perform in the Reef Galaxy in the future," Lorelie said with excitement. [OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): I would be delighted to. Tickets for your shows were already hard enough to get; now they will be even harder.]"Don't worry about that, I will supply enough backstage passes for you along with your friends and family." [OfficialMuriel (Aqua Primus): I will hold you to that.]
