This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Ruby carefully got off Rudy's lap, a mixture of embarrassment and irritation visible on her face. "I've had enough for today," she stated firmly, avoiding eye contact with Rudy. "I'm heading to my room to sleep."

Rudy, undeterred, leaned back on the couch, one arm draped casually over the backrest. "We can continue where we left off once I've dropped Alice off," he suggested with a playful smirk.

Ruby didn't even spare him a glance. "You'll have to wait until I'm in the mood again," she retorted before walking away, her steps echoing faintly in the hallway.

Rudy couldn't help but groan at her response. He got up from the couch, his attention now focused on Alice. He extended a hand to help her up, looking at her warmly. "Are you ready?"

Alice nodded in response, her nerves still palpable. In an instant, they teleported and appeared in Alice's room, the scene of her familiar surroundings filling Rudy's senses.

It was past midnight, and the darkest hours of the night surrounded them.

Nervously, Alice turned to Rudy, her voice trembling slightly as she asked, "Can you use your vision ability to check if Dad has returned home?"

Rudy nodded, understanding her concern. He closed his eyes, activating his vision ability, and scanned the entire house. After a suspenseful moment, he finally opened his eyes and turned to Alice with a reassuring smile. "He's not home yet, Alice. You're safe."

Alice sighed in relief and sat down on her bed. She hugged Rudy tightly, appreciating his presence and the comfort it brought her. Her innocent eyes looked up at him, filled with gratitude. "Can you stay with me until Dad returns? You can teleport away when he comes back."

Rudy, always a bit cheeky, raised an eyebrow and asked with a playful tone, "What do I get in return for granting your wish?"

Alice pondered for a few seconds, her brows furrowed in thought, trying to think of something appropriate to say in response to Rudy's playful question. Amused by her innocent reaction, Rudy couldn't help but chuckle softly. He leaned down and hugged her tightly, patting her gently on the head.

"There's no need to worry, Alice," he reassured her in a warm, soothing tone. "I'll stay with you for as long as you want."

Alice felt a rush of relief wash over her. She let go of her tight grip on Rudy and, with a contented sigh, leaned back against the slab on her bed. She arranged the pillows behind her to make herself more comfortable, stretching her legs out in front of her.

Rudy settled in beside her, their closeness bringing a sense of warmth and security. As soon as he did, Alice decided to take the initiative. With a playful glint in her eyes, she swiftly moved, crawling on top of him, her expression one of surrender as she nestled herself comfortably against him.

In the dimly lit room, the atmosphere was charged with an unspoken tenderness. Alice, perched comfortably on top of Rudy, stared into his eyes with a sweet, affectionate smile. Her fingers gently traced along his jawline, caressing his cheek as she leaned in and planted a soft kiss on his lips.

Rudy's eyes closed momentarily as her lips met his, a warm and gentle sensation that seemed to envelop them both. When she pulled back, he looked at her with a gentle smile, his fingers softly brushing a strand of hair from her face.

Her eyes sparkled with a hint of playfulness as she moved in again, this time placing a tender kiss on his cheek. Then, with a contented sigh, Alice shifted herself and rested her head against Rudy's chest.

They lay there in the quiet intimacy, neither of them needing words to fill the silence. The room was filled with the rhythmic sound of Rudy's heartbeat, a comforting and steady cadence that Alice found strangely soothing. Occasionally, she would tilt her head up and kiss him again, her lips meeting his in soft, lingering kisses.

Rudy's hand moved in a slow, gentle caress down her back, his touch feather-light and soothing. Sometimes, he would play with her hair, running his fingers through the strands as they shared this tranquil moment of closeness and affection. It was a moment that needed no words, a silent understanding that bound them together in a warm, tender embrace.

Alice's gaze, filled with a mix of vulnerability and curiosity, flickered as she looked up at Rudy. Her voice was soft, almost hesitant, as she asked, "Are you going to leave me?"

Rudy's brow furrowed slightly in confusion, but he replied in a calm, reassuring tone, "No, Alice. I won't go anywhere until your dad returns."

Alice shook her head, her eyes locking onto his with a hint of desperation. "I didn't mean it that way," she clarified. "I meant... will you leave me?"

The seriousness of her question registered in Rudy's eyes. He took a moment to absorb her words before responding firmly, "No, Alice. I won't leave you."

A flicker of frustration crossed her features, and she pouted slightly. "You know that's not what I mean. I meant, will you ever leave me alone... like, forever?"

Rudy's expression shifted to a mixture of surprise and concern. "Alice, why would you even think something like that?"

Her gaze met his earnestness, and she replied, "I just... I need to know. Things are different now, and with all the other girls around..."

Rudy cut her off, his voice carrying a hint of annoyance. "Alice, you're different. We're different. We have a bond that no one else in my harem has. Before being lovers, we were best friends, childhood friends. We can't be separated, and I have no intention of ever leaving you alone."

He leaned down and kissed her gently, his lips warm and reassuring. When he pulled away, he added with a tender smile, "You're like a dear little sister to me, Alice. I'll always protect you, and I hate to see you sad."

Alice's cheeks puffed up slightly, her playful spirit returning. "Don't sister-zone me after everything we've done together," she teased, her eyes dancing mischievously.

Rudy chuckled and kissed her again, more passionately this time, his arms wrapping around her in a protective embrace. "You're right," he whispered against her lips. "You're much more than a sister to me, Alice."
