Princess and her knight(Overlord AU)

Renner sat on her chair her ass cushioned by a soft pillow that made seating a bit more comfortable for her, Arthur was certainly a beast in bed and made his mission to thoroughly enjoy himself and made sure to satisfy her in return.

This was all fine, in fact she loved it, and wanted him to have sex with her as frequent as they possibly can, regardless if it meant that it would be difficult for her to sit down afterwards, even right now despite her vagina aching and her buttocks being sore from being spanked her mind and heart yearned for more.

Her heart felt a pang as she remembered and she smiled, she definitely needed more of him in her.

She quickly shook her head, ridding herself of such unholy thoughts, this wasn't the time to be distracted. There was a civil war going on and she needed to focus.

Since she was now the leader of the goldilocks organisation, a newly formed company that both helps in the transportation of goods and weapons and as well as medicines and potions, this meant that she had some spies to work with since Goldilocks used to be Eight fingers and they had plenty of assassins and spies.

This meant it wasn't just Edstrom collecting information, the dancing scimitar was only appointed to collect information from the castle where Barbro was living, while all others collected information on the rest of the nobles and her father, which was why she was reading a report about knew how the nobles had somehow convinced her father to have a meeting with Barbro.

"Either it's betrayal or the nobles want Zanac to take my father's place when he returns from Baharuth"

She surmised, while the nobles of the royalty faction were loyal to the royal family that didn't mean they had to be loyal to the King when there were better options.

"This works better for me and Arthur"

She whispered to herself as she placed the piece of paper she was holding on the desk, it still made her blush when she realised that this was the desk Arthur took her for the first time, which was only two days ago.

The doors clicked open and Arthur walked, with Lakyus walking behind him, she was about to speak but quickly noticed that the two were holding hands.

The princess kept her composure, there was nothing to be worried about the two were quite close so it shouldn't be unusual to hold hands however Lakyus looking down and instead of looking up gave hints of something the princess did not like.

"Darling, I thought you said you were going to spar, why are you back already"

She said, purposely adding the word "darling" to test something and Lakyus flinched as she heard the word and that was all Renner needed. The princess could feel her rage beginning to form at the pits of her stomach, surely not.

"Renner, I want to discuss something with you and I do hope we can all keep our cool heads once we begin"

Arthur began, he already knew the situation was a bit unpleasant and that Renner certainly had the potential to launch herself at Lakyus screaming bloody murder, Renner was usually a rational person however Arthur knew when it came to emotions things tend to go sideways.

"Arthur, Darling. I am always level headed so there's no need for such warnings"

She said, once again emphasising the word darling and once again causing Lakyus to squirm in discomfort, noticing that Renner had the intense urge to hurl slurs at the blonde haired adventurer but she kept her composure.

'You filthy Bitch! How dare you do this to me!! I'll kill you!!'

The princess thought but didn't vocalise, the vibrant light blue colour of her beautiful eyes dimmed becoming darker and her face gained a neutral expression.

"I think I should go, this was a mistake"

"Oh no, my dear friend, stay. I need to hear why you would betray me like this"

"I didn't mean to–"

"Ah yes of course you didn't mean to, obviously that makes things better and I can forgive you right? Did you lie to me back then? Am I so low on your friend's list that you'd betray me like this?"

The princess asked, her voice devoid of any emotion and her face retaining its neutral expression, her mind was in turmoil, her anger telling her to act and rip the bitch apart but she knew better so she kept her calm.

"Renner, it's not her fault, it's mine, I'm the one who pursued and she can't be blamed and besides it's not like this is unheard of right?"

The man responsible spoke, his smooth voice cutting through the tension and grabbing their attention, he didn't plan to just be a passive observer and he wasn't about to let Lakyus go either, regardless of how she seemed to tug away her arm from his grip.

Renner didn't respond, she wanted to speak but for some reason words failed her, it was easy to insult and berate Lakyus but with Arthur she found herself hard pressed to do so.

His words did not make her feel angry like with Lakyus, no, they stung to hear, she didn't want to hear them, Arthur belongs to her so to hear him outright reject that was a blow she was not prepared for.

She held herself together and spoke, asking him a question

"I thought you said you loved me, was that a lie?"

"It was not, a lie, I can love both of you at the same time, like I said this isn't unheard of"

He said pulling Lakyus close and holding her closer but making sure not to hold her waist, he wasn't trying to have Renner pull out a knife and jump at the adventurer.

"True it isn't that rare but just because it exists doesn't mean I have to accept it, you are mine Arthur and mine alone, I will share you with no one else!"

The princess said with finality in her tone, she was not going to share what belonged to her regardless of what the reason was, so if it meant ending her relationship with Lakyus and possibly killing her then so be it.

Arthur was about to respond however Lakyus spoke first, while she was remorseful about the whole thing, that did not mean she had to stay silent.

"Arthur is not property you can own Renner, he's a person and he can choose what he wants, he can't belong to anyone"

"Who are you to tell me what is mine doesn't belong to me? Not to mention the audacity to speak despite you being in the wrong"

Renner said as she stood up ignoring her aching parts and Lakyus separated herself from Arthur and inched forward. She winced at bit when Renner mentioned she was in the wrong but she still stood her ground

"You can't just say you own someone, he's not your slave!"

The adventurer responded, the tension in the room rose to greater heights filling the room with its thick and stuffy feeling as the two women clashed, Arthur couldn't help but feel like he was overshadowed.

"oh of course, then since he's not a slave and a person who doesn't belong to anyone that means he can choose, right?"

Renner spoke and both women looked at Arthur who at this point was simply going to ensure that neither woman hurt the other since it was obvious they weren't going to include him in the discussion or rather he was conflicted on how to reconcile the situation without someone hitting someone else.

"What?"

He asked, seeing as they suddenly focused on him.

"Lakyus believes you don't belong to me so simply prove her wrong by choosing me over her"

Renner stated and Lakyus felt a bit pensive, she hadn't meant for this to become a situation where Arthur was forced to choose and she was fully aware that she would lose, She and Arthur had barely shared a kiss while he and Renner already had sex.

"I can choose both of you, there's no need for this to be such an issue, I believe I am man enough to love both of you equally and if not equally then adequately enough that you're both happy"

The man said, giving Lakyus a bit of hope but causing Renner to frown.

"I will not share what is mine with someone else, choose me, this isn't negotiable"

The princess said with finality and unwilling to compromise, she had confidence that Arthur would choose her as such it wasn't even a choice.

'well, shit'

Obviously he wasn't going to choose one over the other so he simply needed to find a solution to the problem and unfortunately he didn't have the time for it as he was being pressed for an answer right now.
