She Used Me for a Dare… Now I Own Her Mother

The silver car tore through the empty highway at top speed, the engine roaring in the dead silence of the night. It was already past midnight, and the roads were almost completely deserted.

Only a few scattered streetlights blurred past as Alex drove, his hands steady on the wheel, his mind far away.

A faint smile played on his lips.

What a night it had been.

In just a few hours, so many things had happened.

He had finally come face to face with the true powers of this world… the Sacred Order. He had even been beaten down by Elyria, a Peak Apex realm cultivator, and yet he survived. A wider smile formed on his lips at the memory.

In the end, everything had gone well.

He was genuinely pleased to learn that Elyria and Viktor were connected. Their relationship would make things significantly easier for him in the future.

As for Heena… Alex’s smile deepened slightly.

How could she possibly walk away after experiencing him? She would become his eyes and ears inside the Sacred Order… a willing and valuable asset. Not out of force, but because she had already tasted something she would never be able to forget.

Everything was falling into place exactly as he wanted.

But the most important thing… he had finally understood his own body.

It was far more powerful than he had initially thought. The way it had healed itself, the way it had adapted after taking such a devastating blow… it was beyond anything he had expected.

Tonight, he had truly begun to realize just how monstrous his constitution really was.

He let out a soft breath and spoke in his mind.

“Hey Lilith… Show me my status.”

A bright, bell-like laughter echoed inside his head, filled with clear amusement and satisfaction.

“Hehe~ You finally called for me~”

Lilith’s voice was lively and energetic, completely different from the sleepy tone she had used earlier.

Alex raised an eyebrow, a teasing smirk forming on his face.

“You sound quite energetic, Lilith,” he said lightly. “I thought you were going back to sleep earlier. You don’t sound sleepy at all.”

Lilith laughed again, her tone playful and slightly mischievous.

Alex chuckled softly as he understood her intentions.

“You already knew, didn’t you?” he questioned. “You knew nothing would happen to me even after being attacked by her. You wanted me to experience it myself… to truly understand my body.”

“Hehe~ Of course I knew~ I just wanted my dear host to feel it with his own body. How else would you truly understand how powerful you are?”

Lilith’s sweet laughter rang in his mind once more, this time carrying a clear teasing edge.

Before Alex could say anything else, a glowing system window appeared in front of his eyes.

Alex stared at the glowing system window in front of him, his eyes moving slowly across the screen as he analysed every detail.

The first thing he noticed was his battle sense.

[BATTLE METRICS]

Battle Sense: 0.5% → 1.5%

Alex’s eyes narrowed as he read it again.

After fighting Pavel for several days straight, he had only managed to raise his Battle Sense by 0.5%. Yet, in just one single attack from Elyria — a Peak Apex realm cultivator — his Battle Sense had jumped by a full 1%, bringing it to 1.5%.

A slow, surprised smile formed on his lips.

“That’s… surprising,” he muttered under his breath.

The progress was impressive, but at the same time, it was also frustrating. To advance to the next realm, he needed to reach 100% Battle Sense.

He let out a soft sigh.

“100%… That’s going to be a long journey.”

A small, amused smile then appeared on his lips.

“Still… with Viktor by my side, things should become much easier. I can always ask him to punch me a few times.”

He chuckled softly at the thought.

Alex leaned back in his seat, the silver car still speeding through the empty highway under the moonlight. His eyes remained fixed on the status window for a few more seconds before he finally closed it with a thought.

The night had been long, but it had also been incredibly rewarding.

A short while later, the silver car slowed down as it approached the grand entrance of his Roland Estate.

Alex drove slowly through the quiet grounds, the soft hum of the engine barely disturbing the peaceful night.

As he passed by, his eyes naturally drifted toward Villa 3. The entire villa was completely dark… not a single light was on. A small smile touched his lips.

’They must have already gone to sleep,’ he thought. That villa belonged to Danny and his family… the one he had gifted them not long ago.

For the first time in a long while, Alex felt a quiet sense of peace settle in his chest. Knowing that His family were now living here, safe and protected under his estate, brought him a rare feeling of calm.

He continued driving until he finally reached the gates of his main mansion. Alex turned off the engine and sat in silence for a moment, the quiet hum of the night surrounding him.

The massive estate stood tall and imposing under the moonlight, its lights glowing softly in the darkness.

But just as he was about to step out, Alex suddenly paused.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

The main gates were open.

’Hmm? Why is it open?’

Alex wondered, a faint frown appearing on his face. He clearly remembered closing them before leaving earlier.

For a brief second, he thought it might be Danny, but he quickly dismissed the idea. Danny would have texted him first, and Alex had already informed him that he wouldn’t be home tonight.

Something felt… off.

Still, he didn’t hesitate.

’Let’s see… what it is.’

Alex slowly entered the mansion, his footsteps quiet against the marble floor. The grand hallway was dimly lit, casting long shadows across the walls. As he walked deeper inside, his sharp ears suddenly caught a sound.

Splash… Splash…

The distinct sound of water splashing.

Alex paused for a moment, his eyes narrowing slightly as he listened carefully. The sound was coming from deeper inside the mansion… most likely from the indoor pool area.

His expression turned serious.

Without making a sound, he continued walking forward, his senses fully alert.

He moved past the living room and headed straight toward the back garden, where the indoor pool was located.

As he got closer, the sound of water splashing grew louder and louder.

Splash… Splash… Splash…

Alex’s eyes narrowed slightly.

’Why the fuck would someone swim in the pool at this time…?’ he wondered, a hint of irritation flashing across his face.

He stepped out into the garden area. The moonlight poured down, reflecting off the crystal-clear water of the large swimming pool.

And then, he saw her.

A girl.

Completely naked.

She was swimming gracefully in the pool, her smooth, wet skin glistening under the moonlight. Her long hair floated behind her as she moved through the water with elegant strokes. She hadn’t noticed him yet.

Alex stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on the unexpected sight.

After a few more strokes, she finally swam toward the edge of the pool.

She placed her hands on the marble border and slowly lifted herself up slightly, turning her head to look directly at him.

Her wet hair clung to her face and shoulders, water dripping down her smooth skin. A playful, knowing smile appeared on her lips as she looked straight into Alex’s eyes.

“Welcome…” she said, her voice soft and teasing. “Took you long enough, Alex.”

She tilted her head slightly, her smile widening as she added in a playful tone,

“I hope you won’t punish me for trespassing?”
