Villain: The Play of Destiny
chapter-198

A series of whispers dragged Keith out of his dreamland, and when he opened his eyes, he found the naked girl in his arms trembling slightly.

Ignoring the people around them, he squeezed her against him and then planted a kiss on her head.

"Hey, good morning." He softly said to her, and Minami immediately turned to look in his direction, staring at him with her misty eyes which soon poured tears out of them.

He knew what was the reason behind those tears, and he carefully sat up, wrapping her in covers before he hugged her in his arms.

<It's okay.> He signalled to her since she was not going to understand any word that he says. <Stay still.>

Keith proceeded to give her a check-up and smiled when he found her ears perfectly fine, and her vocal cords were more developed than before, which was going to make it easier for her to talk in the future.

<How do you feel?> He used Sign Language and words at the same time.

<Thank you...> That was all she said before she hugged him and started sobbing.

He gently comforted her back and then smiled at the group of ladies, who were standing by the bedside, surrounding them, with her hands folded on their chests.

Keith could tell that they were ready to attack him with questions, but they were restraining themselves as they had found out that Minami could now hear them and was not really comfortable with the new sensations that she had never felt before.

"Is she fine now?" Celine expectantly asked, and her eyes turned misty when he nodded his head to her.

Qingyue, however, was glaring at him, and seeing his grandmother trying to suppress her smile, he understood that the grey-eyed girl had complained to her to chastise him.

"Can you please leave the room?" He suddenly said. "I need to talk to Minami in private."

His words made them all frown, but no one asked him anything before they left quietly and locked the door behind them.

It took her a few minutes to stop crying, and then she just stayed there in his arms, holding onto him with her eyes close.

Keith teasingly traced her back with his fingers, which tickled her a little and she started giggling, eventually opening her black eyes that were strangely very lustrous.

<Come.> He signalled to her before he picked her up and then took her in front of the full-sized mirror in the room.

Minami dazedly stared at the girl in the mirror, and she could tell that she was a few inches taller than before. Her silky long black hair reached down to her ankles, and she was enchanted by how pretty they were.

Keith gently unwrapped the covers from around her, allowing her to take a better look at her body, and she was too entranced to pay attention to her modesty right now.

Her eyes centered on her boobs, which were still just as big, but they were not as saggy and were much rounder than before. And then she looked at her slender legs and waist.

She was not the only one appreciating her body as Keith too ran his eyes all over her. It was as if she had been perfected, and though she was still oozing out that overwhelming cuteness and innocence, she was much more seductive than before.

When their eyes met in the mirror, he smiled at her, making her burn in blush.

<You are beautiful.> He conveyed to her through signs and laughed when he heard her yelp in surprise and watched her grab the covers to hide her body from his eyes.

Minami blushed some more, and her heart was beating erratically when she heard his laughter. She had seen him laugh before. It was one of her favourite sights, but hearing his voice for the first time charmed her more than ever and brought tears to her eyes.

"Hey, no crying now." He gently said to her and used the signs to convey his words to her.

She obediently bobbed her head and suppressed the urge to step forward and hug him, but her tears soon dried up when she watched him pick up her clothes from the bed and walk over to her with a sly smile.

Minami instinctively clutched onto the cloth when his hand reached for her, but her grip loosened when she felt him tugging the covers, asking her to let go of it.

She lowered her head and covered her boobs with her arms, drowning in her shyness. But obediently lifted her feet when he couched down on the ground and helped her wear her panties and then the knee-length leggings.

Her boobs were eventually uncovered when he helped her wear her bra and then the long-skirt uniform that she liked wearing. And having him dress her up like that made her heart warm up.

Keith was enjoying what he was doing, and then even helped her wear her shoes and set her hair before he pulled her behind him and walked out of the room.

"Eeeee!" Kiara could not help herself and happily rushed forward to hug Minami, making her friend feel shyer. "You are beautiful!" She said and used signs to convey her words, which brought a sweet smile to Minami's face.

"So, who wants to take charge of Minami and help her learn how to speak?" He asked, and immediately got the response.

"I!" Kiara and Rebecca beat Celine to it, but the grey-eyed lady still walked over and joined the two of them as they hugged his beautiful maid.

"Take her to see Void. I am sure she would love hearing that cub purr when she gives it those soft scratches." He suggested, and Kiara and Rebecca readily pulled the girl away.

Celine stayed behind and then playfully folded her arms on her chest, seemingly waiting for something. And sure enough, there was something that she was looking forward to.

"Keith. Why was she naked with you in the bed?" His Grandmother strictly asked.

"Because we were making love." He smiled at her, taking her off-guard, and Qingyue spat the first word that popped up in her mind.

"Beast!"

Celine and Diana both started laughing, making the grey-eyed girl blush in embarrassment.

They had seen that he was still wearing his clothes when they found them asleep, which meant that they were not really making love.

"Did you have to take off her clothes to treat her?" She seriously asked, and his Grandmother stopped laughing as well.

"Not all, just the shirt." He shrugged.

"Then why did you take them all off?" She pressed, and he lightly smiled at her.

"Because I wanted to." He bluntly said.

"Keith, behave." Diana cut in, but the two of them were already locked into a staring contest.

"Beast..." She huffed and then stomped away to go see his beautiful maid, but glared at him again when she heard him burst out in a laugh.

Keith knew what was really bothering her. She was just bothered that he now had one more girl to sleep with when they had not even crossed that line yet.

He had caught her throwing those envious glances at Rebecca, Nana, Kiara, and Amelia in the last few days. And the fact that Rebecca always rubbed it in her face that she slept with him irked her a lot.

What really dissatisfied her was how Keith had never expressed any desire to sleep with her, which she was a little mad at him about, making her feel more conscious about her beauty.

"What were you all doing in my room?" He asked.

"Qingyue dragged us there. She had found you two sleeping like that last night, and she had been restless since then. Kiara came over to wake you two up, but she was surprised to find that Minami could hear now, and she immediately called everyone over..." Celine gave him an account of what happened. "I guess breakfast would be delayed again..." She sighed.

"You can always eat without us."

"Nope." She shook her head and then smiled at him.

"Qingyue also complained to Amelia over the call about you taking Minami to bed."

"Okay." He shrugged and then checked his phone which suddenly vibrated.

"The Trial has begun?" Diana knowingly asked, and Keith nodded his head as he skimmed through all the messages he had received since last night.

"Amelia, Ayesha, and Aunt May won't be coming home for another week. They are going to the Kingdom of Persia with the Princess." He informed them.

"Yes, Qingyue told us about it." Celine nodded her head. "Keith, how is Minami suddenly so..."

"More beautiful?" He smiled at her as she nodded to him.

"And taller." Diana pointed out.

"Well, I did something that enhanced her genes, calling onto the untapped potential."

"Oh..." The two women looked at him in surprise, marvelling at how something like this could be possible.

But Diana knew more of his secrets than Celine did, so, she was not too taken aback by the revelation. She just took it as one of his miracles as an Inheritor of a God.

"Are you going to head to the court?" His Grandmother asked, changing the subject.

"No. I am staying home with you guys." He smiled and said before wrapping his arms around the two ladies and taking them to the dining room.

Viola was already waiting for them there, and Keith decided to not wait for the girls and asked her to serve them their breakfast which he enjoyed whilst chatting with the two ladies.

"Rebecca received an invitation from Princess Avriel a few days ago. There's a Royal Gathering in Vienna. And she asked me and Aunt Diana to come with her. Do you want to come with us? We are leaving on Thursday." Celine expectantly asked.

"I am aware of it, and no, I can not make it." He apologetically said to Celine and his Grandmother.

"Is it anything important?" The grey-eyed lady pouted.

"I am leaving for Australia later this week."

"Football World Cup?" Diana guessed.

"Yes." He smiled at his grandmother. "And there is also some important business that I need to attend to."

The two of them did not ask him any questions related to the business he had to attend to. Both of them had no interest in it.

Deciding to not wait for the girls proved to be the right decision since they did not turn up in the dining room before lunch. They had all been pampering Minami, and they even took her to see her brother after they had their lunch.
