Chapter 50: Live-in Lover - Part 14

"Do you have any last words, Jeff?""Before you sentence me to death, please hear me out, Jess."

Jeff arrived home late at night. As he expected, the moment he opened the door to his room, he found Jess sitting in her gaming chair in front of her computer, waiting for him.

Another thing Jeff expected was that Jess would figure out what he had done with Nubia. He didn’t know exactly how she could sniff out the scent of another girl on him, but if she could catch Olivia’s scent before, then there was no way Jess wouldn’t notice Nubia’s scent after everything that had happened.

And he was right. The moment he stepped into his room, Jess’s pleased expression immediately shifted into a threatening, murderous glare as she caught the strong scent of another girl on Jeff—along with the lingering smell of his cum.

As soon as Jess stood up from her seat and grabbed the laptop from the study desk beside her computer desk, Jeff immediately moved into the first phase of his plan.

He couldn’t hide what he did, he obviously wouldn’t lie to her, and he couldn’t reason with her that he hadn’t cheated. All Jeff could do was beg Jess for mercy and hope she would accept his plan—which led to their current situation: Jess standing in rage, laptop in hand as her weapon, while Jeff was prostrated on the floor with his knees, hands, and forehead pressed down.

"The only thing I need to hear is you admitting that you’re cheating on me!"

"I’m not—"

—Bam!—

The moment Jeff raised his head from the floor to try to reason with her, Jess threw the laptop and it landed squarely on his face.

While Jeff was still recovering from the dizziness of being struck, Jess hurriedly picked up her next weapon—the monitor of her computer.

Fearing he might pass out if Jess hit him with the monitor, Jeff shouted in panic, blurting out what he thought might stop her rampage even for a moment.

"Everything I’m doing is for your sake, Jess!"

"How is cheating with another girl for my sake, idiot!" Jess yelled, smashing the monitor down toward his head.

Luckily, Jeff was quick enough to catch the monitor with both hands.

"Please listen to me first, Jess," he said, trying to calm her down.

"I won’t, I won’t, I won’t..." she grumbled, yanking the monitor out of his grip and raising it again for another strike.

"Didn’t you promise you wouldn’t leave me again? Didn’t you say you wouldn’t do anything I dislike? So why are you cheating on me? Am I not enough for you, Jeff?..."

Seeing Jess crying in the middle of her rampage, Jeff realized she wouldn’t listen to words alone. Therefore, he went for the one thing that always calmed her emotional outbursts—embracing her tightly and passionately.

The moment Jess swung the monitor, Jeff braced himself, raising his arms to guard his head. When the monitor slipped from her hands after the strike, Jeff leapt at her, wrapping her in an embrace while restraining her arms.

Even with her overwhelming strength, Jess couldn’t break free. Not because Jeff was stronger, but simply because deep down, she wanted to be embraced by him.

That didn’t mean she had stopped resisting. She opened her mouth and bit down hard on Jeff’s shoulder, sinking her fangs until he started bleeding.

Of course, being bitten until he bled hurt terribly—but since it was Jess doing it, the pain only aroused Jeff.

After a while, Jess finally stopped crying and calmed down enough to let go, though her fangs left his shoulder bloody.

"Pervert," she muttered, feeling Jeff’s erection pressing against her belly.

"Would you let me explain everything now, Jess?"

Unable to resist his comforting embrace, his soothing deep voice, and his intoxicating masculine scent, Jess finally agreed to listen. But first—

"Sit on the bed and take off your shirt."

"Ehh?..."

"Didn’t you hear me, perv? I said sit on the bed and take off your shirt!"

Jeff couldn’t comprehend what Jess was planning, but he could tell she was no longer in a blind rage. Still mad, yes—but not raging.

Following her command, Jeff sat on the bed and took off his shirt. To his surprise, Jess climbed onto his lap, facing him. He was even more shocked when she leaned down and started licking the shoulder she had bitten earlier.

"Jess, are you sure that’s okay?" Jeff asked, worried about her literally drinking his blood.

"Just shut up and let me stop the bleeding, Jeff."

Her licking already felt good, but when she sucked his blood, the sensation was overwhelming. His erection throbbed uncontrollably, nearly bringing him to climax.

"You really are a pervert, aren’t you?" Jess said, feeling his hardness pressed against her crotch.

After a while, his shoulder stopped bleeding. Jess tried to stand and pull away, but Jeff wrapped his arms tighter around her waist, pulling her closer and staring directly into her eyes.

"Will you listen to me now, Jess?" Jeff asked, pressing his forehead against hers.

"Fine, you can give your excuse—before I strangle you to death." Jess replied, wrapping her hands around his neck, her nails slowly digging into his skin.

"I have a request, Jess."

"For someone who cheated, what makes you think I’d listen to your request?"

Her grip on his neck tightened, her nails digging deeper into his flesh, drawing blood again. At the same time, Jeff’s arousal only grew, his rod throbbed harder than ever, close to climax.

Regardless, Jeff ignored it and spoke his request.

"Would you be willing to have some girlfriends, Jess?"

"Ehh?..."

[RETURNER FANTASY SYSTEM]

[Quest 11 – Yuri x Harem]

[Reward – Returner Luck]

[Objective – Convince Jess to agree to a multiple relationship]

[Countdown – 24 hours]

---

"You mean... you want to have other girlfriends, right?" Jess asked, confused.

"No... I want you to have girlfriends, Jess."

"Ehh?..."

Yuri x Harem—that was Jeff’s plan for handling his relationships with Jess, Nubia, and one more girl he had yet to meet.

In short, if he could convince Jess to have a Yuri relationship with them, then as Jess’s boyfriend, it would mean he could have a legal harem with all of them.

"That’s just an excuse for you to have a harem, isn’t it, bastard?" Jess said, tightening her grip around his throat.

"Of course not..."

Of course Jeff wanted a harem with the girls he loved—but that wasn’t his only reason for wanting to convince Jess of a multiple relationship.

As far as Jeff could understand about the mysterious Returner Fantasy System that had been granted to him at the moment of his death—when he regressed twelve years into the past—completing its quests would allow him to change his fate, and the fate of the ones he loved.

But what if he failed? What if he only saved Jess’s fate, but not his own? What if the incurable disease that killed him once still killed him again?

He didn’t want to leave Jess alone. And he definitely didn’t want some other man to have her.

Call him selfish, call him worse—but he would never allow another man to touch Jess, only to abandon her again like that bastard Trud once did.

That was why he wanted Jess to form relationships with the girls he loved—so none of them would be left alone if he died again.

"That’s why I want you to be in a relationship with them—just in case something happens to me."

Jeff explained his reasoning in a way that didn’t mention his regression and the Returner Fantasy System.

He expected Jess to get angry and lash out again, but he steeled his resolve, prepared to endure any beating to convince her.

However, to his surprise, Jess suddenly went quiet. She even let go of his neck, stopping her chokehold.

"Are you—"

—Bam!—

A sudden uppercut knocked Jeff flat onto the bed.

Obviously, she was angry. Or so he thought.

While Jeff lay stunned, Jess stood up, walked toward her desk, grabbed the CPU of her computer, and yanked it free from its cables and wires.

"Wait, Jess... That will seriously kill me—"

—BAMM!!!—
