Violet's POV
That was a great nap that I was dying to have. I've done so much lately that I forget how much time I've been here. So far so good right?
System, how long will it take to get closer to my goal?
With the rate you are going you won't make the two year mark.
You have only had one potential mate and both of you are not even close to any type of love interest. You need to spice things up!
I have done all your quests and passed everything. You're supposed to help me so help me!
Fine. You lucked out today since it's the blood moon. This will intensify your feelings for each other.
Intensity how? And what is the blood moon
The blood moon is the best time for females to go in heat. That is why the traveling group rushed back from their travels home to be with their females. This is the perfect time for others to fight for their females for dominance in their family.
Dominance in their family? I don't understand?
Many females have multiple husbands or mates. This is the time where they get to fight to be first husband. This is the only night where just one male will be with their female. Some males get to have their females all night and most of the time they share.
What? Share? Wow what a crazy world. The woman here must be so strong!
Truly they are. So tonight they will be very active. I suggest you stay home if you don't want to get caught in the crossfire. Even though you are not a beast, someone like you will be tempted to reproduce on a night like this!
You didn't think to tell someone like me this?
I was so used to this type of setting reminding someone about this again was forgotten. Sorry about that.
You seem a little more realistic than a system. I like this new approach.
The more you complete your quests the greater the amount of influence I have. As you have accomplished many in a short time, I will finally be able to act as I am.
So when does this start and for how long?
2 hours, maybe less. Prepare yourself, it's gonna be a long night for you.
I am not going to go through anything they are going through right now. I need to stay focused with my goal. I climb down the tree-house and run towards the area with our storage of food. I take out enough food and supplies to last a few days. I will standby in here for a few days so that I am away from everyone. As I rush to get everything I need I make a run towards the stream to collect a few fish in the net.
"Excuse me. I am sorry to have bumped into you like that." I say to a male
"It is my fault for just standing here looking at this contraption." he says back embarrassingly
"No worries, this is something new. It's a fishnet. We trap the fish with the net to keep it from swimming off." I say back to the male
I don't have time for this. It's a walk back to the tree-house and I have many things to do before tonight. That damn system had the nerve not to tell me anything about this till hours later. What if I did something I regretted in front of Jee. What if I made him feel uncomfortable because of this damn Blood Moon. I move to the side and put a few fish in one of the baskets. I realign the net and start cleaning the fish to make sure I can get as much dirt off from it. As I try to clean one of the fishes it moves and wiggles out of my hand and cuts my fingertip.
The male runs up to me and grabs my fingertip and places it in his mouth and sucks on it.
"What are you doing?" I scream at him blushing
"Sorry this is normal. Our saliva can help seal wounds. Look, see?" he asks
I look down and see that the outer part of the cut has a thin layer of skin over the scar. Wow that was incredible. Does he have some type of healing power? But the way he sucked my finger I would have thought he wanted more than just to take care of my wound. Maybe it's me and I am overthinking it since this damn blood moon will change my mood soon.
"Thank you. I have never had someone do something like this to me before so it caught me off guard. I appreciate your help and thank you. I hope you have a good day. I must go now." I say to him and start to move back in the direction of the tree-house
"You look like you need help. May I help you take this back to your home?" he asks kindly
I do have a lot of stuff and I can do this all in one trip if he helps me instead of coming back.
"Alright, thank you. It's this way." I say to him and we walk back towards the tree-house
"Wow this place has changed since the last time I have been here. This tribe has definitely profited since then." he says to me curiously
"Are you not from here?" I ask him
"No. Every season doctors come to assist with inquiries or pregnancies or anything medical since it is high time right now. The last time I came it was not like this. I am glad to have stopped here before returning home." he says back sadly
"Home? Where are you from?" I ask him curiously
"I am from Genn. Not too far from here. Have you been before?" he asks me
"No I have not. I have only stayed in this area. I am not familiar with the whole kingdom yet." I say back to him
"There's a lot more than just this little tribe. You will one day find out." he says to me
"I hope someday I do." I say back as we get to the tree-house
For some reason I feel like this man is more than he says he is l
