Reborn As Noble

Javier, Delya, and Buddy glanced toward Liana, who was lifting one glowing fruit with both hands, a soft smile on her face as she examined it.

”Big Sister Liana really has a talent for these things,” Delya murmured, her dreamy eyes fixed on Liana’s hands.

Javier nodded slowly, two fingers resting on his chin. His other hand drifted down and casually caressed Delya’s butt.

”Mm. It’s like plants, fruits, flowers, they all respond to her. I still remember back then, when I first started planting sugarcane and the cocoa trees. She was the one who helped revive the withered cocoa tree. Not to mention, I didn’t have many cocoa saplings back then. Just a handful. And thanks to her, those few turned into an entire grove.”

Buddy narrowed his eyes at Javier’s hand, let out a long exhale, and squawked.

”Cuquawked~ Cuquawked!” (Who cares~ Now I know the fruit is safe! Safe!)

Buddy bolted toward Liana and skidded to a stop, hopping in place and flapping his wings with excitement. He craned his head down and nuzzled against her shoulder, letting out a contented squawk.

”Cuquawked~” (Nice save, my elf witch~)

Liana smiled and gently shoved his beak away. She stood, dusting the sand off her knees.

”I’ll make drinks and other desserts with this fruit once everyone wakes up.”

Buddy puffed his chest out, proud and satisfied.

”Cuquawked~” (As you wish, my beautiful, talented, magnificent elf witch~ I shall await your creations with great patience and great hunger~)

Javier watched Buddy bouncing around Liana, squawking excitedly. Liana pushed his beak away with a smile, letting out a soft laugh at his antics.

I hope the day I leave for the mission...

He paused, his gaze softening.

...he won’t sulk too much.

I should tell Liana and the others about the mission before I break the news to Buddy. That way, they’ll know what’s coming. And I can ask Liana to check on him while I’m gone. She’s the only one who can handle him when he’s being difficult.

Liana would understand. She always does. She’d keep him fed, keep him company, keep him from worrying too much.

Javier’s smile flickered as Buddy suddenly snapped his gaze toward him from the distance, narrowing his eyes with suspicion.

”Cuquawked...” (Master... suspicious...)

Javier grinned sheepishly, raising both hands.

”What? I didn’t say or do anything.”

”Cuquawked? Cuquawked!” (Really? The way you were looking at me and Liana, all soft and thoughtful... like you were plotting something. Like you were hiding something from me. You’ve been weird all afternoon, and now you’re smiling at me like that. What are you planning, Master?)

Javier stepped behind Delya and wrapped his arms around her from behind, pulling her close. He pressed a soft kiss to her cheek, making her giggle softly.

His hand slid lower, one arm resting around her waist, the other slipping down the front of her bikini bottom, his fingers finding her pussy. Delya squirmed against him, her thighs pressing together, her breath escaping in soft, breathy gasps.

Javier wiggled his eyebrows at Buddy.

”Nothing, Buddy. I was just looking at Liana and thinking about what kind of punishment would be good for her~”

He pressed more firmly against Delya, lifting her slightly against him while his hand stayed where it was, hidden from view.

”But now? I think I’ll reward Delya first~”

He turned, glancing over his shoulder with a smirk toward Liana.

”Then I’ll punish you~”

Liana clasped both hands in front of her and bowed softly, her voice warm and accepting.

”I understand, Young Master. I will accept whatever punishment you deem fitting for my behavior today.”

She smiled, still bowing, her voice dropping into a gentle murmur.

”Though I would ask that you not be too harsh with me, Young Master. I still have to prepare the food for everyone. I need to make sure the family stays together. I would prefer to be able to walk properly while doing so~”

Javier smirked and walked toward the portable building, holding Delya against him. She giggled softly as he carried her, her arms draped around his neck. He stepped inside, the door closing softly behind them.

Buddy glanced down at Liana, tilting his head.

”Cuquawked?” (You’re not jealous?)

Liana smiled, her hands still clasped in front of her. She lifted her head and looked toward the building.

”Why should I feel jealous? They’re my future co-wives. We share the same husband. We’re a family. Sharing him is part of that.”

She paused, her eyes drifting away. Her cheeks flushed softly, and her voice dropped to a quiet mumble.

”I did promise Young Master I would try to control my jealousy. It can be difficult sometimes. But I’m trying. For him. For all of us. Because this is the family he wants to build. And I want to be the one who holds it together, not the one who tears it apart.”

Buddy smirked, glancing down at her. He wiggled his eyebrows.

”Cuquawked~ Cuquawked~” (You know Master’s going to ravish you hard after this, right? Better prepare the dish now. Who knows how long you’ll be unavailable once he starts your ’punishment’~)

Liana gave his wing a weak punch. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

”Stop teasing me, or I won’t prepare the dish for you at all.”

”Cuquawked~ Cuquawked~” (Oh~? But I always hear a certain someone trying her best to muffle her sounds through the walls~ Struggling to stay quiet, failing every time~)

”You wouldn’t understand anyway.” Her voice softened, a faint, warm smile crossing her lips. ”Young Master... he knows exactly what he’s doing. Every touch, every movement, every word. He’s like a master craftsman who understands his craft completely. No one could ever match that.”

”Cuquawked~” (Right~)

Liana put both hands on her hips and glanced up at Buddy.

”If you want the dish prepared now, you’d better help me. Unless you want to wait until Young Master pulls me into that building. And who knows when that will be~”

”Cuquawked!” (Gladly!)

Buddy bolted toward the back of the building in excitement. Liana let out a stifled laugh, smiling as she watched him go.

I wonder what Buddy’s reaction will be when he finds out Young Master is going on the mission later...
