"You?" Minos said in surprise at the sight of Talia's face, while Ruth's older sister quickly turned red with embarrassment at the sight of his face.historical

Gulp!

"Minos!" She cried out in surprise, her eyes wide at seeing this man she had dreamed of seeing again for so many nights...

Years ago, Talia pretended to be Ruth in the northern region and almost went to bed with Minos. But as he was busy then, nothing had happened, and she had returned 'entire.'

However, Minos had stirred the feelings of the pure Talia, and she had thought about him for quite some time.

So, seeing this man at the front door of her family house, she could not help but be surprised while feeling ashamed for what she had done.

"Talia? Have you seen Minos before?" Ruth asked in surprise since she knew nothing about it.

Upon hearing this, Minos understood everything that had happened back then, realizing that Talia had passed herself off as Ruth and told this woman nothing.

As Talia looked at him and her sister, so shocked and ashamed that she could not react to the surprise of seeing Ruth again, Minos answered in her place. "She went to the Black Plain once... I think she wanted to know more about the man you were getting involved with, Ruth."

"That..." Talia hesitated, afraid her sister would hate her if he told her more.

"Is that so?" Ruth looked at her sister and Minos while Abby and Gloria watched that woman with a black and white cat in her arms with strangeness.

Minos laughed and said. "Yes, after she 'sensed' how remarkable I was, she convinced herself and left, didn't you, sister-in-law?"

"That's what happened..." Talia said in a low voice, knowing this was not a lie. 'He did indeed make me sense many things.'

"Well, you should have told me..." Ruth said as she came closer to her sister and hugged her before taking that ball of black and white fur from Talia's arms.

"Milo..." She lifted it in the air with her two hands, seeing the little face of that adorable creature.

"Meow!"

Then, as Ruth placed her family cat on her shoulder and Abby and Gloria looked at it, Talia shook her head and tried to overcome her embarrassment. 'I'll talk to him alone later to resolve that situation...'

"Uh, anyway, welcome back, Ruth." She said as she looked at her younger sister before turning to the other two women there. "You too. It's nice that you all came to visit us. You must be Abby and Gloria, right?"

"Hmmm," Abby nodded to her.

Talia knew about them since her family monitored the Minos and Ruth situation in the northern region. So it was easy for her to assume that these two women could only be his other wives.

And seeing Gloria, she could not help but focus on this woman's belly. 'She is pregnant!'

They then talked among themselves for a few moments while Talia tried to ignore Minos to avoid blushing with shame for having betrayed her sister. At the same time, they went deeper into that residence, quickly settling into a living room.

"So, where are our parents?" Ruth asked while she had already let that furry cat out of her arms to approach Abby and Gloria.

Milo had sniffed them both, but it did not take long for it to lay on Gloria's lap, licking the clothes around her belly.

Talia watched that and replied to Ruth. "Mother and father are out working. I don't know what time they'll be back."

Talia and Ruth's parents were elders of the sect but not the most powerful. Elise was only level 71, while Vince was at level 75. So the two of them had various matters to take care of around the headquarters and sometimes even away from that place. Hence, when Ruth heard Talia, she did not find it strange and took it as usual.

"Well, I hope they won't be long. I want them to meet my family..." She said before the four women started talking again, getting to know each other better.

As for Minos, he participated in this conversation from time to time, always looking interestedly at that woman who was currently at level 65.

'Talia has improved a lot in that time we haven't seen each other...' He remembered that moment between them when he did not even know that such a person was his sister-in-law.

'But who knew... She wanted to test her sister's then-boyfriend by going to bed with him.' He internally smiled, interested in this sister of Ruth's.

Talia had not intended to do such a thing at the time, but it would make no difference to Minos, even if she explained it to him. She had acted in such a way and even insisted that they continue their things somewhere... It had just been a pity that the time and place were not the best, and nothing more profound had happened between them.

She could see that there was something on his mind, but she did her best to stay focused on getting to know Abby and Gloria and listening to her sister's stories.

'Why does he keep looking at me? Does he desire me?' She smiled at those three women. 'No, Minos, we can't! Ruth is my sister! It would be wrong for me to give myself to you!'

Soon, Talia felt as if two entities were in her mind trying to direct her to make totally opposite decisions regarding Minos.

'Oh, that is so wrong!'

...

At the same time that Talia was being tested, Maisie was welcoming Ivy into her home.

"Ivy? What are you doing here?" Minos' mother escorted that green-haired woman into her residence, seeing the smiling look on that person's face.

"Maisie, guess who just arrived at the sect?" Ivy asked while she could not stop thinking about little Minos.

Maisie was not dumb and knew that Minos was coming to this place. Since the time coincided with when he was supposed to arrive, she said. "My son?"

"Exactly!" Ivy exclaimed. "I just met him near the Miles' house. I even hugged him tight after so long without seeing him!"

"You did?" Maisie smiled as she was already starting to get excited about introducing her son to the rest of the family.

She was not in such a hurry and would not be rushing out of this place to Minos. After all, she was aware that this would irritate him. So first, she would talk a little with her friend and give him time to learn about that family before she approached him.

Ivy nodded. "He looks so handsome. He doesn't even look like the baby I held in my arms so long ago..." She gave a slightly different smile as she remembered the teasing words from earlier.

"You haven't tried anything with my son, right?" Maisie closed her eyes and asked, already knowing what her friend's personality was like.

"Of course not! He's just a boy in my eyes!" Ivy defensively said, smiling, not feeling offended.

"I hope so. I don't even want to think of you putting your hands on him..." Maisie sighed, thinking that this woman would be dangerous around someone with Minos' personality.
