Chapter 122: Selene's Invitation
[From Selene]
Good Morning
Sorry for the early message, Nikolai... but would you be interested in attending a Nexus sponsored auction with me?
I will email you the invite and information about the dress code and place...
Or you could come to my apartment, and we could go together... maybe around 7:00 pm?

\'It really doesn\'t sound like the usual Selene....\' Nikolai thought to himself as the door suddenly clicked, a thick scent flowing into the bathroom.
\'It\'s Nikita...\' He could sense her from a long distance after they slept together. No longer was her scent slightly foreign to him as the sweet scent of violets and vanilla drifted inside before he turned to face the little intruder.
Nikita stood against the wall. Her legs seemed to be a little weak, her alluring bare body covered in sweat and fluids as her soft breasts moved along with her breath. She looked beautiful under the bright bathroom light, pale, creamy skin covered in red bruises and bite marks where they became excited together.
"You weren\'t in bed, and I thought you left me..."
Her silky white hair covered one eye, an intense, seductive aura coming from her golden gaze as she slowly limped toward him, with each step growing increasingly heavier and clumsy until she collapsed against his chest and pressed her nose against his neck with a smile.
"Silly, why would I leave you? Come, let\'s bathe together." Nikolai said gently as he pulled the two of them inside the warm bath, holding Nikita between his arms, "I need to leave later. Do you have anything to do today?" He asked as the little wolf closed her eyes, letting him wash her hair, the warm soap massaging into her hair with a strawberry scent.
"No... It\'s fine since I can\'t walk anyway..."
"Alright..." Nikolai chuckled as he started to clean their bodies. The feeling of her delicate skin and firm breasts made him excited, but after such a long night, the feeling only remained for a few minutes before calming down. \'No... she\'s swollen down there, and it\'s a bit much after her first time to be so persistent...\'
"Does it hurt?" He asked while gently applying Nikita\'s face mask, as she did him a moment before.
However, when she felt it, Nikita seemed very satisfied and cuddled against his chest, kissing him with a soft smile. A feeling of warmth spread through their bodies thanks to the hot, soapy water and the tingling bath bomb added to their bodies clinging together.
"You don\'t need to worry..."
The two of them held each other close for nearly 20 minutes before leaving the bath, but when they did, Nikita couldn\'t move even after healing her legs and resting. Nikolai, with a wry smile, lifted her like a princess and carried her around the apartment before he helped to dress her.
After a few moments of buttoning up her blouse and soft cotton pants, he began to put on his clothes, feeling satisfied with his lovely fiancée after rubbing her soft, silky hair and kissing her cheek.
Nikolai wore his casual suit and sat at the edge of the bed, his hand sliding over the curvy buttocks of Nikita, who lay on her stomach, kicking her legs.
"I need to go out now. You can sleep here again tonight, so make sure you eat if you do. I\'ll call you, okay?"
The girl was curled up on the bed, wearing a loose black blouse, exposing her collarbone and lower back with cotton shorts that were thin and barely covered her nether regions with a star pattern scattered all over them.
Her smooth white tail and fluffy wolf ears twitched as she turned her head, no longer hiding in the pillows, with red cheeks and a lovely expression. And smiled at him shyly and nodded her head.
"Yes... Will I see you again tonight?"
"I am planning to get back early, so you should see me again. If something happens, though, I\'ll message you. Alright?"
"Nn~ make sure you come back. It\'s cold and lonely without you."
"I will, my little moon."
With a final kiss, he caressed Nikita\'s leg with one final squeeze before taking his phone. With the message from Selene fresh in his mind, he walked out of the building and drove over to her house to discuss the auction with her.
\'Nikita was a little wild last night, but in the morning, how lovely...\'
The air in S-City had a peculiar feeling. Many things have happened recently, and many organisations, both legal and illegal, started to arrive and thrive.
Nikolai knew he had only touched the tip of the iceberg with many things. So now he worried about his lover, Nikita might be strong, but he realised she also had limits.
On the roof of Nikolai\'s home, the air grew colder. Standing at the edge with a stoic expression, Dimitri Fenrir\'s fur blew in the wind along with the hood of her thick coat.
"My daughter... you\'ve become that boy\'s mate... If this is your choice, Dad will support it. If he hurts you... I will crush his balls!"
Dimitri\'s voice was almost a whisper as he stood up straight and walked towards the stairs, heading to his car with a cigar in his mouth and sunglasses covering his eyes.
"Lucas, from now on, Nikolai is to be treated like the clan heir." Dimitri might have been strict with Nikolai in the past, but he knew deep down that he would love Nikita and would never play with her.
\'But a father can never stop worrying, so forgive me for treating you coldly. You are Ivan\'s son. How could I ever dislike you.\'

Selene stood at her kitchen counter, preparing some food as the sun warmed her body through the windows.
This rare scene caused Wilhelmina to look frozen, her face dark as if the world might end at any moment. "Princess... are you alright?" Her question came as she noticed Selene humming a current hit romantic pop song. \'The lady hates modern music!\'
"It\'s nothing." She replied with a bright tone, her radiant smile betraying her poor attempt at hiding her delight.
\'You are practically growing white wings and shining like a damn angel, my lady....\'
"What are you doing today?" Wilhelmina asked. After seeing her master\'s cooking ability, Wilhelmina didn\'t dare eat the burnt toast and undercooked eggs Selene tried making.
"Later, I am going to an Auction with..." The moment her words came out, Wilhelmina\'s eyes narrowed, a sharp and ferocious Celestial aura bursting from her calm and petite frame.
"With?" Wilhelmina seemed to be possessed by some demon, her delicate hands grabbing her master by the arms, gripping tightly.
"Don\'t be like this~ it\'s Nikolai." Suddenly, the woman froze, releasing Selene immediately.
"Nikolai? What about your family and status, Master? How could you take that man... it\'s as if you are announcing your—"
Selene\'s eyes narrowed, her aura becoming frigid and full of a deadly atmosphere.
The smile faded while she frowned towards Wilhelmina. "That\'s exactly what I am doing. That girl already got the first move, so now it\'s my turn!" Her voice was solemn and elegant, full of pride and arrogance. The imposing manner she gave off made even Wilhelmina shiver.
\'I... I\'ve never seen the lady so serious about something before...\'
It was a shock but also something that made Wilhelmina proud—she wanted to watch her princess grow, but the fact she ended up growing so fast was surprising. \'Is this the effect of that male wolf too?\'
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and Wilhelmina took in a large gulp of air when the door opened. Because the moment it sounded, her prim and reserved young lady rushed to the door in a mad dash...
\'My lady....\'
When she arrived at the doorway, the person standing there was just as shocked as he found Selene with slightly red cheeks and wearing an apron covered in a mess with a knife in her hand.
"I didn\'t think you\'d arrive this early..." Selene\'s heart beat quickly as she glanced away awkwardly.
"I didn\'t expect such a lovely welcome myself."
Suddenly, Wilhelmina saw something click inside Selene, her crimson eyes lighting up. She tossed away the filthy apron and dragged Nikolai into the living room with a beaming smile.
\'Ah... the lady, you truly...\'
"How is it possible that you look better each day? Please sit, and I\'ll get dressed before we leave. I prepared some snacks... but I don\'t know what you like, so please, feel free."
On the table were various dishes—they were cute finger foods, and it looked like Selene made quite some effort to make them all. Nikolai looked at the table and picked the messiest wrap and began to chew on it.
"Go change, these are pretty tasty. Thanks, Lena."
The moment Selene heard the way he called her, different from the awkward style in the Nexus before, this time, it was calm and confident and made her heart pound with excitement and expectation. \'Will he accept my request tonight...?\'
Wilhelmina felt all of her energy drain away in a second, watching Selene run off to her bedroom and change. With only two people in the room, the air became awkward, but after a moment, the mature and quiet maid spoke up:
"Of course," Nikolai said sharply as Wilhelmina narrowed her eyes in response.
"Woman, are you going to get in my way?"
A fierce aura flowed from Nikolai\'s body as he grasped at the blade handle in his trench coat item storage. It was sharp, powerful and filled with bloodthirsty intent to kill, even scaring Wilhelmina.
"Please don\'t say it like that, Sir Wolf~ I am merely a servant of my lady." With her hands folded in front of her chest, the maid smiled sweetly, "I just don\'t want to see her being hurt, understood?"
