Chapter 186: The Burden Of Responsibility

Luca read the letter twice. Three times. Letting the words sink in.

No pregnancy. No child. No repeat of the nightmare that haunted him.

Just a mark. A symbol. A reminder.

Relief flooded through him so powerfully that his knees nearly buckled.

For one horrible moment, he had been ready to do something drastic—teleport to wherever the goddess resided, consequences be damned, and make her undo whatever she had done.

But it wasn’t that. It wasn’t that at all.

He folded the letter carefully, his hands steady now, and looked at Luna.

She had been watching him with concern, her earlier bliss replaced by worry. When she saw his expression soften, she slowly sat up and leaned into him.

“What’s wrong, Luca?” Her voice was gentle, caring. “You had this really scared look on your face a moment ago. Did you think of something bad? Was it a nightmare?”

Luca chuckled softly, pulling her closer and letting her lie on his chest.

“How can I have a nightmare when I’m not even sleeping?” He pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I’m alright. I just thought of something concerning, but it turned out to be a false alarm.”

His hand drifted down to her belly, fingers tracing the edge of the mark. Luna shivered at his touch.

“This tattoo.” He said softly. “It’s something that appears on any woman I’m intimate with. It won’t hurt you—it’s just a mark.”

He then looked at her apologetically and said,

“I know you elves value being clean and elegant. Having something like this…right above your…” He hesitated, gesturing vaguely. “I apologize if it’s an inconvenience.”

But Luna’s response surprised him.

She shook her head immediately, a bright smile spreading across her face.

“No, Luca! It’s completely alright!”

She looked down at her belly, touching the mark herself with something like wonder.

“Actually…I really like it.”

Luca blinked. “You do?”

She nodded enthusiastically.

“It’s like a gift you’ve given me. A mark that says you’ve been inside me, that we’ve shared something special.”

Her cheeks flushed, but her smile didn’t waver.

“Every time I look at it, I’ll remember tonight. I’ll remember you. That makes me so happy.”

Before Luca could respond, her expression shifted.

A thought seemed to occur to her—something that made her look up at him shyly, hesitantly.

“I heard from Auntie Nyx that…” She bit her lip. “That this is where a baby grows. Right here, under this mark.”

Her fingers traced the lines of the tattoo.

“It makes me wonder…what would it feel like? To have a baby inside me?”

Luca’s eyes shimmered. He hadn’t expected that.

Luna saw his reaction and immediately flushed deeper, waving her hands.

“I—I mean—not today! I know I can’t get pregnant today, so you don’t have to worry about that, I’m not actually carrying your child right now, I just—I was just thinking—”

She took a breath, trying to calm herself.

Then her voice dropped to something softer, more vulnerable.

“But…”

Luca leaned closer. “But what?”

She looked up at him, her eyes shimmering with emotion.

“But…I also wouldn’t mind if I really did carry your child someday.”

The words came out in a whisper, barely audible.

“In my womb. Holding a little Luca. I-I’d actually be really happy.”

The moment she said it, embarrassment crashed over her like a wave. She looked away, hiding her face, terrified that he might tease her, might laugh, might think she was moving too fast.

But Luca didn’t laugh.

He didn’t tease.

He simply stared at her, his expression shifting through a complex series of emotions.

The Goddess’s words echoed in his mind.

The responsibilities he carried.

The expectations of beings far above.

The future of an entire continent resting on his choices.

And now this little elf in his arms—trembling with vulnerability after admitting she wanted his baby—was asking him, without asking, to consider a future he had sworn never to face again.

The old Luca would have run. Would have closed himself off. Would have pushed her away to protect himself from the pain he knew too well.

But now?

Now he saw her devotion. Her sincerity. The way she looked at him like he was the center of her world.

And he saw the other elves too—Nyx, Lulu, Leona—all of them, their futures somehow intertwined with his.

He was wavering.

The walls he had built around his heart, the barriers he had constructed so long ago—they were cracking.

But he decided to push those thoughts aside for now.

There would be time later to ponder divine conspiracies and missing body parts.

Right now, there was a beautiful, willing elf in his arms, and he intended to enjoy every moment of it.

His hands roamed down Luna’s body, savoring every curve, every shiver.

When he reached her pussy, he spread her folds gently and pushed two fingers inside. She was already wet, ready, aching for him.

“Hmmm—!”

Luna whimpered at the intrusion, her hips instinctively grinding against his hand. She looked up at him through hazy eyes, a shy smile on her lips.

“Luca…Didn’t you just…finish? Shouldn’t you rest?”

He rolled his eyes and scoffed, continuing his slow, deliberate fingering.

“Who said that a man should stop just because he’s come once.” He shook his head with mock disgust. “Absolutely ridiculous.”

He pushed his fingers deeper, curling them inside her, and Luna gasped.

“In fact, this is just the beginning, Luna.” His voice dropped, low and commanding. “I’m going to fuck this pussy of yours all night long.”

He emphasized each word with a thrust of his fingers.

“I’m going to make sure it remembers exactly who it belongs to. I’m going to show you what a human cock can do to an eager little elf like you.”

Luna’s entire face flushed crimson, heat radiating from her cheeks to the tips of her ears.

But she didn’t look away. Didn’t deny it. Instead, her eyes grew even hungrier.

“I…I’d really like that.” She admitted shyly, her voice barely above a whisper. “The thought of you staying with me all night, using my body however you want…”

She shivered, but not from cold.

“It’s amazing. I feel like I’m in heaven just thinking about it.”

Then a thought struck her.

“Wait!” She pushed his hand away, sitting up. “Let me help you too.”

Before Luca could respond, she slid off the bed and dropped to her knees in front of him. Her face hovered inches from his cock, her breath warm against it.

“Luna, what are you—”

Before he could finish, her hand wrapped around him first and then her mouth followed.

“Lick!♡~ Mmph!♡~ Ahh!♡~ Suck!♡~”

She took the tip between her lips and sucked, her tongue darting out to trace the sensitive ridge, and the words died in his throat.

When she pulled back, there was pride shining in her flushed face. Pure, delighted pride.

“I’m going to do to you what Lulu did.”

She announced, as if declaring victory.

“After all, there’s no way I’m letting her do something like this to you and not do the same.”

She demonstrated by taking him deeper into her mouth, then pulling out slowly, a string of saliva connecting her lips to his cock.

She then grinned up at him, proud and competitive even in this position.

“Now I’ve not only had your cock inside me, but I’ve sucked it too.” She licked her lips. “Definitely more accomplishments than Lulu. I’m winning.”

Luca couldn’t help but laugh at the absurdity—the adorable, competitive determination on her face even while doing something so lewd.

He reached down, threading his fingers through her hair and guiding her gently.

“You know…” He murmured as she resumed her work. “…my cock is only going to get harder and thicker when you do things like this. When I push it back inside that tight little pussy of yours, it’s going to be even more intense.”

“You’re basically making this harder on yourself.”

Luna pulled her mouth off him with a wet pop, looking up at him with eyes full of love and lust.

“I don’t mind, Luca.” Her voice was soft but certain. “I told you—I want you to destroy my pussy. Make it completely yours.”

She leaned forward, kissing the tip gently.

“So if sucking your cock makes it harder, makes it fuck me better?”

She smiled, seductive and sweet at the same time.

“Then I’m going to suck it so hard it turns my pussy inside out.”

That was it.

Luca couldn’t hold back anymore.

He grabbed her, pulling her up and spinning her around. Luna squealed in playful protest—”No, Luca! No!”—but even as she said it, she was sticking her ass out, reaching back to spread herself wide, already anticipating what was coming.

He didn’t make her wait.

He slammed into her in one smooth motion, burying himself to the hilt.

“Ahhhh!♡~ Lucaaaa!♡~”

Luna cried out, a mix of surprise and pure pleasure, as he began to move.

And just like that, they were fucking like animals once again.

Luna was in utter bliss, lost in the sensation, in the feeling of being completely claimed by the man she loved.

Every thrust sent waves of pleasure through her body, and she couldn’t stop the moans that spilled from her lips.

Luca, even in the midst of passion, couldn’t help but think.

About the Goddess. About the future. About what all of this meant.

But those thoughts could wait.

Right now, there was only this moment.

Only Luna. Only the two of them, tangled together, lost in each other.

He pushed everything else aside and let himself fall into the feeling, into the warmth, into the adorable, passionate elf beneath him.

Tomorrow would bring its own challenges.

Tonight was for them.
