NOVEL NEXT 54: How Are We All Sleeping!
As Wanda gazed into Erik's eyes, she could see the sincerity and remorse reflected in his gaze. Despite the hurt and confusion swirling within her, she couldn't deny the love she felt for him...
Taking a deep breath, she nodded slowly, "Alright, Erik. We'll enter the mind realm."
Closing his eyes, Erik focused his thoughts. The next moment he found himself in a familiar white space.
"This place has a strangely calming effect on my mind," Erik smiled.
He walked towards her. Seeing that she wasn't distancing herself from him, he felt a bit relieved.
Erik then swiped his hand in the air, changing the scenery - showing his memories of the mission.
He began to recount the events that had led to his encounter with Cindy. He told her that the attraction that he felt toward her was purely physical, and completely due to a biological phenomenon. He showed her how he tried to reject her, how he tried to control his body...
However, it soon grew beyond his control. The pheromones, the resonance... Cindy just drove his senses wild. And soon it led him to cross the line with Cindy...
But it wasn't like it was her fault, it was due to the spider genes that he had engineered in his body.
He also showed Wanda how Cindy saved his life when he was trapped in Strange's spell.
Wanda's eyes narrowed as she saw Cindy possessed by Neith...
'They both tried to control themselves at first. And from his memories, I analyzed his emotional state at the time he first rejected her. However, the emotions that he tried to suppress when she approached him the second time seemed like they rose above a threshold 'instantly'... rendering him unable to control them...' Wanda observed...
'It's more than mere biology, I sense some external interference.' She contemplated, 'Must've been done by this entity that possessed her. I might have to confirm this directly with this so-called powerful entity herself, but how, I wonder...'
Wanda closed her eyes as she pondered further about the situation.
Well, this time, it didn't seem like it was his fault or the girl's. The entity that possessed the girl and killed Strange must have at least some kind of hand in this situation, perhaps, she planned to bring both Erik and the girl together from the start.
'Besides, even without the interference of that entity, it was a matter of time before Erik brought another girl into our relationship...'
'When he was Jerry, his greatest dream was to get a new body, roam around the universe and fuck all the beautiful girls he could get. Create a big harem as he once shamelessly announced and then got smacked by me...' Wanda smiled reminiscing about those bitter-sweet moments.
She looked at Erik's face.
"I am sorry, I never meant to hurt you. But in the heat of the moment, I lost control of my own lust..."
She could sense his heart filled with anxiety, guilt, and uncertainty, his eyes pleading for understanding and forgiveness. Wanda also read his surface thoughts, his sadness broke her heart.
'Perhaps, he thinks that he could have controlled himself if he had more willpower... But it was not possible. It wasn't just his biology that he was trying to suppress, it was the will of a deity such as 'Her'...'
Wanda softened as she realized the depth of Erik's turmoil.
Even though the attraction he felt towards Cindy was purely physical in the beginning, after spending the night with her, his heart might have developed feelings towards her.
Mostly, the feeling of possession. But it was a feeling nonetheless...
Wanda knew that if she demanded, then he would choose her ultimately, but that would still hurt him greatly.
Wanda sighed, she remembered the promise that she made to herself when she was trying to bring him back from the dead - that she would fulfill every one of his desires, give him anything that he wanted, and love him so much that he never escaped...
Reaching out, Wanda gently cupped Erik's face in her hands, "Erik," she said softly, "You want her too right..."
Erik looked at her eyes, "Yes, but not if it costs me you. I want both of you..."
Wanda smiled, looking at his face, "I love you more than anything in this world, and if being with Cindy is what will make you happy, then I'm willing to accept her into our relationship. But you have to promise that you will never abandon your love for me..."
"Of course, I promise!" Erik's reply was said without a hint of hesitation.
"I would never abandon you, Wanda, you're my first love. In fact, if I ever tried to, bind my hands and lock me with you in a room." Erik joked at the end.
"Ehh~ that doesn't sound too bad~" Wanda chuckled.
However, he couldn't help but notice a strange obsessive smile that Wanda cast when he said those words...
'It looked kinda like those Yandere girls... Nah...'
'Phew, anyway...' Erik couldn't help but feel relieved, convincing Wanda was a great mental effort. Keeping his surface thoughts in check and amplifying his guilty emotions was a lot of effort. All while he was in Wanda's territory!
Honestly, it reminded him of the days when he was with Thanos.

After exiting the mind realm, Wanda asked Erik to talk with Cindy alone. He was a bit worried about what Wanda might do, but he decided to trust her. If Wanda wanted to talk it out among the girls, then it was better for him overall.
Wanda went to find Cindy and soon came back, done with her 'chat'. And... they became a bit friendlier. Well, at least there wasn't any animosity between them.
Wanda was calm and stoic as ever but Cindy's eyes looked at her as if Wanda were her big sister.
'This was a big step! Congrats me! The day I get to enjoy a threesome ain't far!'
"Control your thoughts, Erik..." Wanda rolled her eyes.
"Aye, Ma'am!"
After that, the trio headed back to the cabin.
Thankfully, Pietro and Lilja weren't at home. It seems like after eating they headed off to play somewhere.
Well, Lilja liked exploring and Pietro was super fast, so they could explore many places without wasting too much time on plain, boring routes. Sometimes Pietro used a specially made stealth Necroship to travel across countries. Erik had Chitauri engineers build it for him since Pietro begged too much.
When Erik's stomach growled loudly upon reaching home, Cindy's stomach followed suit a few seconds later.
Wanda smiled softly, recognizing the difference in perceived time for Erik and Cindy. "I'll prepare something for you both," she said, heading to the kitchen.
"Yes, thank you," Erik responded, sitting at the dining table.
"I'll help you!" Cindy followed Wanda to the kitchen.
"No, you first change into something proper. These are your... webs, right? Hm, for now, borrow my clothes, let's buy you proper clothes tomorrow."
"Um, thanks!"
Wanda and Cindy then headed to their bedroom where Wanda lent Cindy a few clothes and a towel. She urged Cindy to take a bath while she was at it.
Cindy took almost no time in bathing and getting ready, donning Wanda's comfortable pajamas.
Soon the girls came back to the kitchen. As the girls interacted with each other in the kitchen, Erik's heart was filled with joy at the sight of his girlfriends being nice to each other.
'I'm really lucky!'
He really was lucky.
After a while, food was served on the table. The dinner was Chicken gravy, rice, and vegetable soup. There were only two plates served on the table for Erik and Cindy, respectively. Wanda's hungry she had eaten only a while ago.
As they ate, Erik asked Cindy about how she got here and then she told him what had transpired in the Watcher's domain after Erik left.
"So, it was a promise between Neith, your mother goddess, and Watcher to send you here, huh..." Erik wondered, 'I'm glad that they saved her. But it's really suspicious... what the hell are those 5th-dimensional beings planning!'
"Erik, do you think we should worry about that Morlun guy who attacked Cindy in her Universe?" Wanda asked.
Morlun was a totemic predator who hunted spider people of different universes. He's a multiversal predator. That's all Cindy knew.
And Erik did not know Morlun at all... He didn't know about Cindy Moon's universe or her stories.
"We should definitely be prepared. I don't think Neith will be helping Cindy in this matter. She may have saved us from that Strange Supreme, but gods don't babysit..." Erik replied.
"Does that mean it's something that we can deal with on our own." Wanda tilted her head.
"Well, Erik is really powerful, so I think that he can defeat Morlun without much trouble. I mean he single-handedly defeated Infinity Ultron." Cindy chimed.
"That wouldn't have been possible without Strange's buff spells. One thing's for sure, we shouldn't underestimate a multiversal villain... anyway I think that we should be safe for quite a while. Well, even though he can travel between multiverse, it shouldn't be that easy to find Cindy after she changed universes..."
"Maybe... but Erik... how are we all sleeping tonight?" Cindy asked blushing while rubbing her thighs together in embarrassment.
