Reborn As The Minor Villain In A Romance Fantasy Novel

Chapter 269: Make It Official

Timothy sat in his office while looking at the computer screen in front of him with a tired expression.

He was currently scrolling through his matches on Pinder, which was a popular dating app where people got matched based on their profiles and then talked to each other.

A lot of people had successfully found their wives and long-term partners on the app, so he was desperately looking for a way to forget about Alexia and move on with his life.

’These women are all money freaks too.’ He thought bitterly as he swiped through profiles.

He had initially posted a regular picture of himself and had only gotten two matches total, but suddenly when he posed with one of his luxury sports cars in the background, he got over two hundred plus matches overnight.

’Couldn’t be like Alexia though.’ Timothy thought with resignation, but she already belonged to Lucius now and there was nothing he could do about it. ’I wonder... if he’ll let me watch them doing it together and even lap up the fluids af— Wait, do I have a cuck fetish developing?’

He hadn’t even gotten to properly focus on his self-reflection when his phone suddenly rang with its custom ringtone.

His phone stumbled in his hand from surprise and he fumbled with it before picking it up shortly after upon seeing the person calling him.

’I HATE MY LIFE!!!!’ He thought dramatically while answering.

...

"I saw a property listing on your real estate site." Lucius said through the phone as he held Celia’s phone up to read the specific name. "It’s called the..."

"Harborview Manor." Celia said excitedly before he could finish, and he gave her an approving nod.

"Harborview Manor?" Timothy repeated with interest. "Boss, are you currently in Tideholm City right now?"

"Yes, I am." Lucius confirmed. "And I need to purchase a new property here immediately... I’ll be putting it in another person’s name since I’m not the one who will be living there."

"Okay, Boss. Harborview Manor is an upper middle-class mansion in a good location." Timothy explained professionally. "Are you absolutely sure you want to buy something like that?"

Stella and Celia were sitting there wondering nervously if it was because the place was too expensive, and even Celia was starting to feel guilty about her ambitious purchase attempt.

"I thought you would want a state-of-the-art mansion with top-tier security systems and costing over a billion royals." Timothy continued casually, gradually making both Stella and Luna’s jaws drop open in shock.

Stella had merely brushed over the mention of a billion the first time Timothy had said it, thinking she had misheard. But Lucius was really casually talking about spending a billion royals on properties?

"No, I’m buying this specific one for my mother-in-law." Lucius explained calmly. "She doesn’t like extravagant stuff or showing off."

Stella gave him a surprised nod of appreciation. How did he know that about her already? Was it written that clearly on her face, or had Luna told him?

"Okay, Boss. The total is 120 million royals for the whole package including furnishings." Timothy said professionally, and Stella visibly paled even though it wasn’t the billion that had been mentioned. 120 million royals was still an absolutely staggering amount of money to her.

"I’ll do the transfer now." Lucius said decisively. "I better expect a limousine to pick us up tomorrow and take us to the property for inspection. Also arrange a moving van service and have the entire place professionally cleaned. I want the move to happen tomorrow."

He wasn’t comfortable at all with Luna’s family continuing to live in such a modest place with poor security.

What would happen if some obsessed Luna fans or even someone that hated him for no reason decided to kidnap them for leverage? That would be absolutely hellish to deal with.

"Okay, Boss. I’ll arrange everything immediately." Timothy said efficiently, and Lucius cut off the call before turning to Celia with a smile.

"See? I did it for you." Lucius said, and Celia practically jumped on him with excitement.

"Yay, big brother! You’re the absolute bestttt!" She yelled as she wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug. "Now I can take pictures of my mansion and post them online too!"

Stella’s face twitched at that statement and she immediately threw her slipper with deadly accuracy.

Lucius blinked as it slammed against the back of Celia’s head and she caught it reflexively. That was some genuinely impressive aim.

"Calm down, young lady. Or are you trying to steal your sister’s husband?" Stella asked while giving her youngest daughter a stern look.

Luna reddened up completely as Lucius was referred to directly as her husband this time, the word making her heart race.

"If I could steal him, I absolutely would." Celia said boldly. "But I’m too young for big brother right now. Maybe if I was a bit older..."

Celia received another slipper thrown directly to her head and she whimpered from the impact.

Lucius patted her head sympathetically and she immediately rested against his chest like a contented cat, making Luna twitch visibly in jealousy. He never let her do that so casually.

"Alright, let me handle paying for the mansion..." Lucius said, then turned to Stella. "Mother, is there anything else you need? We can order it now and have it delivered to the new mansion."

Stella shook her head, her white-streaked hair bobbing with the motion.

"You have already done more than enough for us... I can’t be bothered to trouble you even more than this." She said gratefully.

"No problem at all, Mother." Lucius said as he pulled up Timothy’s account details on his phone screen and then gave the device over to Luna. "Alright, time to pay for the property..."

Stella blinked in confusion and so did Celia. He was not paying directly but Luna was going to? Where was she going to pull 120 million royals from?

"You really mean it?" Luna’s eyes shone with excitement as she brought out her own phone eagerly. "You’re actually letting me pay for this?"

She had desperately wanted to pay for the warehouse facility and other business expenses, but Lucius had always insisted on covering everything himself, so him allowing her to pay for something this significant for the first time was something she absolutely couldn’t take for granted.

She pulled out her own phone and Celia turned in her direction with wide eyes.

"Sis... you actually have 120 million just sitting in your account?" Celia blinked in disbelief.

"I have quite a lot more than that." Luna said somewhat absent-mindedly as she navigated to her banking app. "I think it’s about 200 million royals or so right now."

After they had made the last major sale of drones, she had received a massive new bundle of pre-orders which the Councilworkers were currently handling and manufacturing. The pre-ordering money was just sitting in her business account accumulating interest.

"Come on, buy me a car or something nice." Celia said with her eyes wide like saucers, already planning. "We even have prom or something similar coming up at school."

Luna gave her younger sister a sharp side-eye as she confirmed the payment transfer, the notification chime filling the room. She pocketed her phone and handed Lucius back his device.

"Prom? At your age?" Luna asked incredulously, then looked at her mother with concern. "What the fuck is happening in their school?"

Stella rose up from her couch with a chuckle at her eldest daughter’s reaction.

"Nothing much out of the ordinary. Alright, I’m getting hungry, so why don’t all of us go cook dinner together?" Stella suggested warmly, and they all proceeded into the small kitchen to cook as a family.

...

Later that night, the door to Luna’s childhood bedroom creaked open slowly and Lucius looked inside curiously with Luna standing at his side. Celia was resting comfortably in his arms, giving Luna victorious side-eyes.

Stella was the one who opened the door for them.

"This is the room where Luna grew up in from childhood." She said nostalgically. "We clean it regularly even though she moved out."

Lucius looked around, and it looked like a fairly regular teenage room at first glance. That is, if you completely ignored the numerous posters of drones and mechanical diagrams that lined the walls, and the drawer top that was absolutely full of spare drone parts, tools, and circuit boards.

"Luna has always been incredibly excited about drones and engineering since she was young." Stella explained with motherly pride. "I supported her dream completely... it’s nice to see her actually doing what she genuinely enjoys for a living."

Luna’s cheeks reddened with embarrassment as she stepped inside her old room, then turned to her sleeping sister. "Alright, punk. Get off my man now."

Celia pouted cutely and Stella gave Luna a sharp maternal look. "Language, young lady... you can talk like that outside this house, but you won’t speak like that in my house."

"Y-yes, Mom." Luna said sheepishly as she looked down at the ground, properly chastised.

Stella took the sleeping Celia from Lucius’s arms carefully.

"Leave them alone now... they’re going to do some bad stuff together~" She teased with a knowing smile, and Luna practically had steam coming out of her ears.

"We’re not doing anything bad!" Luna protested loudly.

Celia blushed and Stella closed the door behind them with a soft click, leaving the couple alone.

"Thank you for today..." Luna said with genuine warmth as Lucius took off his shirt, revealing the toned abs that she had gotten thoroughly used to seeing. "I couldn’t face my mother properly after running away from home to pursue streaming."

"You actually ran away?" Lucius asked with surprise as he flipped on the switch for the ceiling fan and it started rotating slowly. He had to admit to himself that he was completely used to modern air conditioning systems.

"Yes, I felt like I was disturbing Mom and being a burden." Luna replied as he got on the bed, and she took off her shirt as well, revealing her bra.

Her breasts bounced slightly with the motion.

The bed was big enough for both of them to lie on comfortably side by side, thankfully.

"So I went ahead to do my own thing independently..." She said and approached him, sitting down on the bed and laying up next to him. "You know, sometimes I wonder... if you didn’t pick me to personally stream your dungeon runs... where would I be right now?"

’You would still eventually become a rich multi-billionaire.’ Lucius thought to himself. ’It’s just that you would have taken quite a bit longer to get there.’

"I love you." She said as she placed a hand on his waist, which was surprisingly muscular and strong to the touch. They were facing each other side-by-side on the bed. "I really, really love you..."

She pulled her face closer to his, their breaths mixing.

"And since Mom has given her approval... can we make this official?" She blushed deeply as she said this, but Villy had been right in her advice. One had to be aggressive and direct to get what they wanted.

"Official?" Lucius raised an eyebrow with amusement. Weren’t they already official?

"I mean let’s have sex, you bastard." She blushed furiously as she finally let it out. "I’m ready to give my first time to you..."

There was silence for a moment, and then Lucius smiled warmly.

"What are you smiling about, huh?" She asked nervously, however he suddenly closed the gap between their faces and kissed her deeply, tangling his tongue with hers and making her completely breathless.

Then he pulled back slowly, looking at her flushed face with satisfaction.

"I’m wondering what kind of faces you’ll make when I’m inside you." Lucius said directly, and she blushed even deeper before punching him playfully in the chest.

"I... I’ve changed my mind about this." She said nervously, but instead he looked at her bra and tapped on the clasp holding both sides together, and it snapped apart easily.

"Too late to back out now." Lucius said as her milky breasts spilled free from their confinement. "I’ll make you spell out my name with your saliva."

Her legs trembled at his words and then he took firm hold of her breasts.

"O... okay..." She blushed and surrendered.

In a small hole in the ceiling that had been drilled earlier, Luke stared down into the room with crazed, bloodshot eyes and gritted his teeth so hard they might crack.

’This fucking guy!!!!’ He thought, almost yelling out loud but restraining himself.
