Village Head's Debauchery
chapter-178

After all, there was no harm in growing connections with individuals in higher positions, and it appeared that the girl was quick enough to recognize the benefits of such alliances.

…....….....

"So, what is it that you wanted to tell me?" I inquired, studying my mother's grave expression, which was mirrored by Gina seating beside her. Gina had previously mentioned that our mother had been behaving this way since she returned home.

But truthfully, after fucking Grandma Ingrid and assisting her in getting back to her hut, as she struggled to walk and could only manage a painful limp before collapsing to her knees, I was already brainstorming numerous excuses in my mind. My aim was to provide my mother with plausible explanations, ensuring she wouldn't doubt my reasons for arriving home late.

In the end, I had to accept the fact that my forged late-night warrior training session would serve as my excuse for returning home late. However, it proved useless because my mother didn't ask about it at all. Instead, she focused on asking about my day and emphasized the need for us to have a conversation. The seriousness etched on her face spoke volumes, as she sat down across from me with a persistent and adamant expression. When I persisted in asking her why she wanted to speak to me, she replied, "Let's wait for Reena to come back home first before I reveal the issue." Her scrutinizing gaze swept over me, from head to toe, before she sighed with a mix of weariness and frustration escaping her lips.

Just as I was about to respond, feeling my patience wearing thin with the prolonged wait, the sound of the door creaking open interrupted my words. I instinctively turned toward the direction of the noise, knowing that it must be Reena. As I laid eyes upon her fatigued and weary expression, I silently made a mental note to inquire about her day on the farm. She appeared so exhausted, and I couldn't recall a time when she had returned home this late, if ever.

"Reena, please join us and have a seat," my mother swiftly beckoned as soon as Reena entered the hut.

Reena, sensing the tension in the air, glanced around, taking in the sight of Gina, myself, and our mother, seated in a circle, facing one another. Her brow furrowed with suspicion, she nodded in understanding before obediently walking over and settling down beside me. I wrapped my arm around her waist, allowing her to rest her head on my shoulder. Reena smiled at me, and together we focused our attention back on our mother, who appeared ready to deliver the important or serious news that had clearly affected her demeanour.

She took a series of deep breaths, exhaling slowly, and cleared her throat multiple times before shifting her gaze to Gina, then Reena, and finally to me, the one she leaned upon. Her eyes bore into mine, suggesting that the upcoming discussion was centred around me, a suspicion I had already sensed from the beginning. Yet, I remained unsure about the exact nature of the news or what I could have possibly done, considering I hadn't committed any recent wrongdoing or any noteworthy actions lately.

"First and foremost," our mother began, her voice carrying a weight of contemplation, "I've thought about numerous ways to deliver this news to all of you, including you, Orion." She paused, building up the suspense, before finally revealing, "Grandma Celia is pregnant."

".…."

".….."

Gina's reaction was the first to break the stunned silence as she leapt to her feet, exclaiming, "What?!" Her outburst perfectly captured the astonishment we all felt, a reaction I would have echoed if I wasn't too shocked to form coherent thoughts. Meanwhile, Reena's jaw dropped open, her face mirroring the disbelief she was grappling with. After a brief moment, she managed to find her voice and inquired, "How?" Her gaze fixated on our mother, who sighed with a defeated expression as if acknowledging the undeniable truth behind the revelation.

In the midst of my brain finally understanding the unthinkable notion of Grandma Celia becoming pregnant, a notion that was deemed impossible given her age and presumed infertility, I couldn't help but ponder the extent of our involvement in this situation. After all, although we were neighbours, we were not directly connected to her personal affairs, except for the fact that she was one of the first women who I had taken an interest in and fucked a...

Suddenly, my eyes flew open, my breath catching in my throat. No, it couldn't be. I turned my gaze towards my mother, who maintained a serious expression as she locked eyes with me. Swallowing hard, attempting to vocalize the questions racing through my mind, the words seemed to stick, causing me to choke slightly on my own voice.

After clearing my throat and regaining composure, I prepared to ask again. However, before I could, Reena beat me to it, her voice filled with anticipation and a hint of nervousness, as she inquired, "Mom, did Grandma Celia reveal the identity of the child's father?" I could even detect a slight tremor in her voice as she addressed our mother.

My mother's nod confirmed the unimaginable truth, leaving me stunned. "The father of the child is Orion," she declared, her words echoing in my ears.

I gulped hard.

Gina and Reena turned their gaze towards me, their mouths hanging open in disbelief, as our mother's words pierced through the room. The weight of her revelation settled heavily upon my shoulders. "Orion, Grandma Celia and the rest have been there for us during my toughest times, even when the village support wasn't enough," my mother explained. "Although I have already welcomed her into our family, I still value your opinion. After all, you have not only fulfilled one of the village's crucial needs by ensuring the birth of more children before your fertility declines but, surprisingly, the fertility of your semen seems to exceed all expectations.....".
