Chapter 71: The Werecat’s Village.
Yuki sat at her computer, her tails flicking behind her gracefully as she watched the Werecats build a village in the ancient forest of the dungeon. Nekra's people were perfectly happy in the dungeon biome and were actually having quite a bit of fun both hunting the monsters and living their best lives. One of the Werecats had even recently announced her pregnancy and wished for Nekra to bless the baby.
Yuki had to sadly tell them that their princess was in another castle before quickly correcting herself.
She sighed to herself, “I hope Nekra comes back soon. I know Rimuru needed help, but we haven’t cuddled in so long.”
“Yuki, it's been a week, nya. We cuddled for the better part of a millennia, and you get upset over a single week?” Nekra's voice came from behind.
With a gasp, the fox girl jumped up. “NEKRA!” Yuki shouted, lunging for her lover.
Nekra caught her with ease, a warm smile spreading across her face. “I’m back, my love. Did you miss me that much?”
Yuki nuzzled into Nekra’s shoulder, her tails wrapping around them both. “Of course I did! I was lonely without you.”
Nekra chuckled softly, stroking Yuki’s hair. “Well, I’m here now. How are our people doing?”
Yuki pulled back slightly, her eyes brightening. “They’re thriving! The village is coming along beautifully, and they’re really enjoying themselves. One of the Werecats is pregnant and wants you to bless the baby.”
Nekra’s eyes softened. “That’s wonderful news. I’ll make sure to give them my blessings. Anything else I missed?”
Yuki grinned. “Not much, just me missing you every minute, of every day.”
Nekra laughed, her heart lightened by Yuki’s affection. “Alright then, let’s go see our people and give them my blessings. Then, we can have all the cuddles you want.”
Yuki’s eyes sparkled with happiness as she held Nekra’s hand. Together, they warped out of the room and to the village.
As they arrived, a cheerful shout rang out. "The princess is back!"
The village burst into joyous activity, with Werecats gathering around to greet Nekra and Yuki. The few children ran to them, elders bowed respectfully, and the air was filled with excitement.
Nekra turned her attention to the children, who were eagerly waiting for her. She crouched down to their level, her eyes twinkling with mischief.
"Who wants to play?" she asked, her voice full of excitement.
A chorus of enthusiastic voices responded, and soon Nekra found herself busy as Yuki watched over them.
==========================================
Nekra was playing tag… and going extremely easy on those kids. Yuki’s tail’s swished as she watched it go down and all of the elders and adults couldnt help but smile at the sight either.
“She would make a good mother.” The Baroness states
Yuki suddenly smiles rather brightly. “That would be nice.”
That was how the noon had passed into the afternoon Yuki watching Nekra play with the werecat children, and wanting with all of her heart to give Nekra a child of her own.
“Alright Princess! The Bonfire is ready!” A older male shouts.
“You hear that kids! Time for dinner!” Nekra shouts as all of the kids who were frozen in freeze tag suddenly break out of their frozen states giggling.
=======================================
Yuki was eating a kebab as Nekra sat next to her, then suddenly the love of her life coughed before standing up.
“Alright! I have an announcement to make. It warms my heart to be here with all of you. I wish I could stay longer, but there are urgent matters on the surface that require my attention. I’ll need to leave for a few more days.”
A murmur of concern spread through the crowd.
“But don't worry,” Nekra continued, her tone reassuring. “While I’m away, I ask that you all stay within the dungeon. Avoid the surface for your safety. I promise I’ll return as soon as I can.”
“W-what about our cuddles?” Yuki asks
“I have a few hours, they are going to be some rather active cuddles though.” Nekra states with a wink causing the fox girl to blink.
