Chapter 28: Will you be my mate?

After their passionate night, Natsu and Mira felt asleep, embracing each other.

The next day, Natsu was the first one to awake. He noticed Mira sleeping while embracing him with a cute expression. He pinched her cheeks, and Mira mumbled something cutely. "Not here, Natsu."

He giggled, listening to this and stood up, then wore clean clothes and headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

After some time, Mira also woke up due to the sudden lack of her warm pillow. When she didn't notice Natsu anywhere, she started panicking. She started having negative thoughts making her believe that Natsu abandoned her after taking her virginity.

When she was about to burst into tears, Natsu entered the room with eggs and sandwiches on a plate with a cup of warm coffee.

He was about to greet her, but when he saw her tearful expression, he put the breakfast on the table and approached her and asked worriedly. "What's wrong, Mira? Is there anything wrong?"

After hearing his voice, all her worry instantly faded away. She embraced Natsu tightly and buried her face into his warm chest.

"Nothing's wrong. It's just that I thought that you left me when I didn't see you after waking up. I'm sorry for doubting you." Said Mira with an apologetic voice.

"Don't worry about it. I'm also sorry for leaving you alone. I just thought I'd prepare some breakfast for you. Last night was intense, so I thought you would need some nutritious breakfast to regain your energy." Replied Natsu with a gentle tone caressing her hair.

Mira calmed down after hearing his gentle voice. Then, she noticed the breakfast on the table. She smiled warmly after seeing his care and internally felt resentful at herself for doubting him.

"Thank you, Natsu, for having me in your life." Said Mira with a warm smile. Then, she stood up and approached the table, and started eating it with a smile. Natsu also smiled after watching her eating the breakfast prepared by him.

After finishing her breakfast, Mira approached Natsu and embraced him.

"Thank you for such a delicious breakfast." Said Mira with a satisfied expression.

"It's no problem. I'm happy to make you breakfast anytime. Besides, my cooking is nowhere near your level. So, I'm the one expecting a delicious meal every day." Said Natsu with a kind smile.

"Still, your food was good enough for me. I'm glad to hear that you like the food prepared by me. It makes me happy to see you eating it so happily. It kind of makes me feel like your wife, hehe…" replied Mira with a chuckle.

"Now that you mention it, I forgot to say something to you." Said Natsu looking at her.

"What did you forget to say?" asked Mira with a tilted head.

"Well… there's a special ceremony for every dragon slayer to mark their mate. I kind of forgot about it last night. So, let me ask you again. Will you be my mate for eternity? There is no going back after this. You will belong to me and only me." Asked Natsu seriously.

After hearing him, Mira nodded her without hesitation. She looked at Natsu straight in the eyes and said in a determined voice. "Of course, I will be your mate. No matter what happens in the future, I will never regret my decision. I belong only to you, as your woman, girlfriend, lover, mate, or wife."

After hearing her, Natsu smiled and hugged her. Then, he sinks his fangs into her neck, making her surprised. Then, he injected his magic inside her to begin the marking process. After removing his teeth from her neck, he just watches as a tattoo started forming on the neck. It looked like a crimson dragon with pitch-black demonic wings.

After the process completed successfully, Mira felt her magic reserve increasing rapidly. It increased by almost 50 percent, which is a considerable boost. Her darkness magic also became even more powerful. She felt her satan soul connecting to an even stronger demonic soul, significantly strengthening it. She also felt closer to Natsu now, on a spiritual level.

"The ceremony is finished. So, how do you feel? Do you feel anything different now compared to before?" Asked Natsu worriedly.

"I've never been so better before. My body feels so powerful right now. My magic reserve and darkness magic improved significantly. I feel like shouting out loudly hehe..." replied Mira with a chuckle.

"Then that's better. I'm glad that you gain something from the ceremony," said Natsu with a sigh of relief.

"Hehe... thank you for this. Now I feel like I can take down Erza easily," said Mira in excitement. But, her excitement quickly died down after seeing his depressed state remembering Erza.

After seeing his sad expression, Mira felt guilty for reminding him about Erza. So, she hugged him with her arms embracing his back gently.

"Sorry for making you so depressed. I'm sure Erza also loves you. But, I don't know why she's trying to distance herself from you. I'll help you to amend your relationship with her. I can't handle the awkwardness whenever you two meet each other." said Mira looking straight in his eyes.

After hearing her, Natsu returned her embrace and smiled at her warmly.

"Thank you! I'm glad to have such a caring girl as my mate," said Natsu with a happy smile.

Mira felt happy hearing this and hugged him tighter.

After some time, Natsu broke the hug and said in a mischievous smile. "There's still some time left before we head to the guild. Why don't we take a bath together? I'll thoroughly clean your body."

Mira became embarrassed hearing but nodded nonetheless.

Then, they went to the bathroom to take a shower. After some time, the bathroom was filled with erotic moans and flesh slapping.

After an hour-long shower, both of them exited the house and headed toward the guild.

On the way, Natsu held her hands, making Mira incredibly happy. They conversed with each other happily, occasionally flirting with each other.

The way to the guild was amusing for the duo. They enjoyed each other's company very much.

After reading the guildhall, they smiled at each other and were about to open the door, but someone opened it from the inside.

When they noticed the person, both Natsu and Mira exclaimed in surprise." Erza!"

Erza also noticed their presence. She was feeling bad for her past actions and wanted to apologize to Natsu today. But, when she saw Natsu holding Mira's hand so gently, she understood everything. She felt even more depressed but still maintained a stoic expression on the outside.

" Congratulations! You two are finally together. I wish you two a happy relationship." said Erza with a forced smile, making both of them uncomfortable.

" Erza..." Natsu said, looking at her, but she avoided his gaze with a bitter expression.

" Ah! Sorry, I have something to do today. I'll meet you later. See you later, Natsu, Mira!" said Erza with a blatant lie, running away without giving them any chance to reply.

Natsu was depressed, watching her departing figure and just sighed tiredly. Then, he turned toward Mira, who looked slightly uncomfortable due to this and smiled at her.

"Let's go inside. We can talk about Erza in there," said Natsu with a stiff smile. Mira also nodded and went inside the guildhall with Natsu holding her hands like a couple.
