Chapter 1589: Chapter 1588: Learning Experience (2)

“You seem rather surprised.”

Taking the now drowsy Lyra from me, Lady Kio hummed softly as she cradled her pup against her chest, staring warmly down at the girl only to have her indulgent smile stiffen when Lyra poked her chest and babbled something.

“I have to admit I thought she would be there for longer. Aren’t they supposed to be… ravenous..?”

My question drew her attention back over to my exposed tit, causing me to blush faintly as I hastily fixed my dress so that I was no longer indecent and so that I could also be free from most of her ire, though Lyra was doing me no favors as the little pup babbled again and reached for me.

Stifling a laugh, Mother looked at me with amusement dancing in her eyes as she answered “Because we typically have so many pups all at once, our bodies have adapted to that fact rather nicely. Your milk is nutrient dense compared to most races, and the amount that comes out… I’m sure you’ve noticed that it is quite abundant as well, no?”

My blush remained as I nodded and glanced at my wives, all of whom were now rather acquainted with just how much milk there was waiting to be drained from my heavy breasts; Lady Kio let out an irritated huff as she forcibly kept Lyra’s head against her chest, fixing me with a glare before speaking again.

“And on top of producing so much milk – which is of impeccable nutritional value – the pups themselves have… a more spaced out feeding cycle to ’help’ their Mothers just a bit. Honestly, it will become imperative to simply keep a jug or two of milk on standby if possible. And as an Ice Mage that is even easier for you, no?”

I nodded idly and continued to stare at my wives, specifically Anput since the Jackalkin was smirking now as she ’innocently’ looked towards the kitchen, which was where she thought those jugs might end up being stored.

They weren’t, not when I knew that she would be hunting for them whenever she could, and because of that my mate just sighed and sank back against the couch, only to look towards her Mother with a raised brow as she got included in the conversation too.

“Now, where your mate just so happens to have pillows sewn onto her chest, you aren’t as ’lucky’ and most likely will not be that ’lucky’ either… but it’s ’good’ then that your children will always end up being another race. Makes things easier for you…”

That last part was spoken a bit dejectedly, like she expected Anput to be sad as well about the idea of remaining ’as she was’ instead of having what I – and my Mother – had, though she was disappointed when Anput just shrugged.

“Oh, how long does this last after I’ve given birth..? For a long time or..?”

Mother pursed her lips and glanced at Lady Kio, waiting for her to answer first – and causing the other woman to growl softly as she caught the small smirk that Mother failed to hide – before she just shrugged and said “For me, I was still producing milk heavily for nearly a year after your birth, and then another year of it being a bit lighter before it finally thinned out completely. However I only had you, so…”

She shrugged again and then blushed softly as Lady Kio snorted and added “And it’ll keep being longer if your wives have anything to say about it.”, which made the three share a glance that immediately had me worried.

Even Leone seemed determined in whatever unspoken agreement they had just had, though before we could address that Lyra finally decided enough was enough and she let out a long wail that made us all jump.

When Lady Kio tried to soothe the pup all Lyra ended up doing was just smacking at her and waving her arms towards me, earning a soft growl from the woman as she stood up, stiffly marched over to me and then pushed her pup into my arms.

The fact that she immediately quieted down, nestled against my chest and curled up in my arms was… enough to infuriate the woman, but instead of blowing her top here she just nodded and murmured “Good… Very good.” before spinning on her heel and returning to the couch.

Gently cradling Lyra and rocking her to sleep, I found myself enamored by how adorable she was and how quickly she passed out in my arms, her body going limp a bit quick and almost scaring me with what that felt like, but she was still breathing soundly and quite warm, so…

“Mm, and one of the things you’ll notice rather early on is that they run warm. The only way to know if they have a fever is if they’re really warm and crying often, but pups are resilient little things so it happens very rarely.

You’ll also need to get accustomed to the idea of them wanting nothing more than to be right up against you… for a long time. You didn’t stop clinging to my leg until you were about three, and even then you still kept quite close.”

That made Lady Kio snort as she looked towards Anput, rolling her eyes and shifting her ire elsewhere as she said “Tell me about it. This one refused to let go of my hand until she was four. Only finally moved away because her little peabrain shifted from me to her Mom, and by that point she was running drills instead of being a little nuisance.”

“Yeah yeah, you cried those nights, don’t think I don’t remember. Mom had to have me-”

“Shut!”

Pointing a finger at her daughter and glaring at her, Lady Kio seemed genuinely angry, yet all that did was make Anput grin more as she continued on without a care, saying “Mom sent me into your arms many a time after training, and if I recall correctly you didn’t complain a single time I ’had nightmares’ and crawled into your bed.”

“You brat!”

Leaping to her feet and lunging for her daughter, the woman continued to show off just how noisy she was, and yet somehow Lyra remained asleep the entire time, like she was accustomed to this sort of thing… which she likely was, all things considered…

As for me, I smiled wryly when I noticed the somewhat exasperated expression on Jahi’s face at that bit of news, because if I wasn’t able to be alone at night… though when she turned her gaze over to Leone I chuckled softly before turning towards my Mother with some more questions.
