Blessed by Night-Chapter 92 Why’re You Here?

Malachi didn't understand why, but after he finished training Luna told him to go in her office and wait. Luna had her own private bathroom in her office as well, so he took a moment to wash up while he waited for her to return. Exiting the shower, he found that she still had yet to arrive, but there was now a large white fox sitting on the couch. Malachi clutched the towel around his neck and started to approach Luna's magical beast. Shiro didn't appear to be hostile in the slightest, even though these creatures supposedly abhorred everyone except for their partners. But one could clearly tell by looking into the fox's curious eyes that this wasn't the case with him. "You've grown since I've last seen you." Mal said. Suddenly, Shiro shrank back down to her usual travel size and gave Mal a look like she demanded praise. He let out an impressed whistle as he lightly pet the furry creature. "Aren't you special... I hope when my little guy hatches he'll be as interesting as you." "Arf!" (Doubt it.) Malachi naturally could not understand the creature, so he just assumed that it was wishing him good luck. Taking a seat on the couch, he waited patiently in Luna's office as he petted the small fox that had moved into his lap. The welcoming scent of his girlfriend's office and the softness of Shiro's fur was like concentrated NyQuil, and soon he was sleeping peacefully without any real care in the world. He wasn't sure how long he was out for, but he awoke to the feeling of a familiar pair of lips being pressed against his own. Opening his eyes, he found Luna with her face above his, a subtle yet noticeable smile on her face. "Good morning, sleeping beauty." "Shouldn't that be the other way around, love?" "It should, but I'm not the one who was sleeping just now, was I?" Luna removed her pet from Malachi's lap and took her rightful seat with extreme jealousy. "Arf?" (No kiss for me?) Luna merely rolled her eyes at her pet and pulled out a treat from her robe, appeasing the small animal. She comfortably leaned back into Malachi's chest and he slipped his arms around her waist, locking her in place. "Did you call me up here just for this, love? You could have just met me at home you know?" "This is certainly nice, but it isn't what I called you for, beloved. You haven't told Sei about everything with the dark angels yet, have you?" Mal regrettably shook his head, and Luna began to delicately trace over his interlocked fingers. freewebno(v)el.com

"I know I'm the last one who should be saying things like this given that there's still so much I haven't told you, but you shouldn't keep secrets from us. I know that you think you'll worry us and some part of that may be true, but... part of being in a relationship with someone is letting them know when important things happen... right?"

The last part of Luna's speech seemed like a genuine question, as if she still wasn't completely sure what was normal. "You're right... I promise I won't keep anything from either of you, and I hope you'll do the same."

"Of course, darling."

Mal left another trail of kisses down Luna's neck, and it seemed like the mood was going to heat up once again. Unfortunately, there was a sudden knock at the door to Luna's office, and a man entered whom both of them knew very well. "I see things have developed quite well between you... I can come back if you need a moment."

Malachi smiled when he saw his idol, Morgan Creed, suddenly stride into the room wearing his usual immaculate dark suit.

"Nah, we were just spending a little time together is all."

Even though Luna had just been caught red handed in a compromising position, she didn't show her embarrassment on her face. She was still getting used to regular affection, so public displays of it were still a big leap of faith for her. But ultimately, she had already prepared herself for this much after hearing from Sei how affectionate Malachi could be. She was also getting more comfortable with not wearing underwear, since she had been told that Malachi was a 'anywhere at anytime' kind of person. "Ahem, just in time, Morgan." Luna said as she lightly fanned her pink cheeks. "Please, sit down."

At this moment, Malachi finally realized it was incredibly strange for the guild master of Ragnarok to show up at immortal moon, and he wondered just what could have brought him here. "It's not like you to contact me, Luna. To what do I owe the honor?"

"I need you to teach Mal how to better use his blessing from Nyx." ""...Wait, huh?""

Both men looked at Luna like they could not believe the words coming out of her pretty lips, and the mature beauty sighed in exhaustion. "He's been a bit adamant in rushing his growth lately, and I'm worried he's going to hit a wall or worse, hurt himself with such power. You are the only one I trust to teach him."

The reality was that there was no way for Malachi to learn enough to kill Alex within the projected timeframe.

But if he learned from the only other person in the world who was on Alex's same level, he might be able to gain enough tricks to survive the confrontation.

And Luna was desperately hoping that would be enough for him to put this grudge of his to bed. Morgan looked at Malachi and saw that while he did not appear to be expecting this, he was not averse to this situation either. His eyes contained a desperation to learn that was scarcely seen in younger people these days. "...You understand how the tabloids will react to this, yes? They will accuse him of being disloyal, treacherous, and make it seem like he's trying to jump ship."

""Fuck em.""

"...You two are remarkably in sync... how long have you been official again?"

""Since last night.""

Morgan didn't realize that Mal and Luna's compatibility was only natural. He was the boy blessed by night, and she by the goddess of the moon. They each served to compliment the other, and when they were together like this they were practically one and the same.

Morgan sighed as he ran his hands through his fiery red hair. "I don't mind doing this but I need to know two things."

"And those are?" Luna asked, already feeling an incoming headache. "What's in it for me for starters."

"I'll give you three tickets to the gala we're hosting next month."

"Ehhh..." Morgan made a wobbly gesture with his hand as if such a proposal wasn't quite good enough.

"....I'll let you cater."

"Deal!"

"But the menu must be tasteful! If I see so much as a single hamburger at my event, I'll go to your house and destroy your precious grill!"

"Fine, fine! I'll make it upscale, I promise."

"And don't wear that stupid apron from last time either."

"...Alright, I won't." Morgan said.

Luna didn't know that he had a whole slew of aprons with phrases. The one he was planning on wearing to her event was a black one that said; 'Don't need no teef to eat my beef!' But she would only find out about that when it was far too late.

"What's the second thing?" Malachi asked. Morgan suddenly became much more serious, and looked at Malachi with a serious expression. "I need to know that you won't quit, Malachi. Handling primordial powers is quite different from the way that you learn to utilize others. I won't sugarcoat it, this will be hell. If you backdown from this now, I will not see you any differently and you may still learn to master your powers at a much slower rate."

Malachi could feel the genuine concern coming from the voice of the man he once idolized and he had to admit, he was really touched. "I can't afford to quit, man. There is no need for you to hold back on my account."

Morgan nodded and finally stood up from his seat. "I have a couple of things to prepare beforehand, you'll have some free time until then. I'll pick you up from your place at around six. Make sure you have a bag packed."

"Alright."

When Morgan opened the door, he found a young girl with caramel skin, blonde hair and glasses waiting outside. "Bianca? Did you need something?" Luna asked.

"A-Ah, I... I'm sorry I wasn't eavesdropping on purpose... but I also want to receive training from Mr. Creed!"

After that last dungeon nightmare, she never wanted to feel that weak and helpless again. She was actually coming up here to ask Luna for private lessons, but this would no doubt be even better. Surely the one blessed by the primordial of fire could teach her a thing or two about her own abilities, even if she lacked his raw power. Morgan glanced back at Luna like he was waiting for some kind of permission, and received a nod in response. "Alright..." Morgan muttered as he scratched the back of his head. "Then you can also meet me at Malachi's apartment at six tonight. Pack a bag with a few days worth of clothes."

"O-Okay!" Bianca was trying hard to contain her excitement, but her inner anime lover was making that rather difficult. 'My own training arc!! Kyaaa!! This'll be so cool!!'

Morgan exited the office not long after, leaving the three of them inside. "So, darling..." Luna asked. "What will you do until six?" Malachi smiled harmlessly at the sight of a cold woman like Luna acting like a maiden in love. "I'm supposed to be meeting Anna today, she's my project partner."

Both Luna and Bianca suddenly twitched as if they heard something they didn't quite like. "This girl Anna... Do you like her?" Luna asked dangerously. Malachi didn't seem to be intimidated by Luna's jealous and possessive nature, and even found her to be even more beautiful. "I don't know...but I am attracted to her and I think that I would like to move things further in the future but... are you alright with that?"

Malachi was not an inconsiderate man who would continue to add women around him at the expense of the ones that he already had.

He had already given himself to Luna and Sei, just as they had given themselves to him. They had just as much say in him taking new partners as he did.

"I'm... not sure..." Luna said honestly. "... Tell me about her and I'll make up my mind then."
