He silently took her hand, and without resistance, she followed calmly to the kitchen where Aya and Natsumi toiled away.
As soon as they entered, Kasumi yanked her hand free, seeing Kenshin's two wives. She still couldn't believe he had two pregnant wives.
Kenshin calmly approached Natsumi first and kissed her lips. Seeing it, fury boiled in Kasumi's chest but faded fast as Kenshin tenderly stroked Natsumi's big belly and kissed it.
Doing the same with sweet Aya, he turned to awkward, unsure Kasumi: "Girls, how can I help?"
"Mmm, you cut the meat," Natsumi replied with a smile, then eyed Kasumi without former hostility: "You, slice the onion into rings and potatoes into cubes. Can you handle it?"
"Um, I've never cooked..." Kasumi whispered shyly, glancing at Kenshin for his reaction. For some reason, she terribly feared disappointing him and seeming a lousy future wife.
"No big deal, I'll teach you. Here, come," Kenshin said tenderly, shooting a warning look at his wives, especially sly Natsumi. Aya was sweet by nature, but under Natsumi's influence and jealousy, she'd gleefully tease the new girl, especially one who could doom their family.
Kasumi grabbed this lifeline and gracefully stepped to Kenshin by the veggie board. He immediately pulled her close, standing behind.
"Watch how it's done," he said, pressing against her from behind, grabbing a potato and dicing it. "Got it?" he asked, kissing her neck tenderly.
At another time, Kasumi would've called him pervert or scoundrel, but seeing his wives' displeasure from the corner of her eye, she moaned softly and nodded sweetly.
Aya and Natsumi glared at Kasumi, mentally cursing her cunning. Kasumi just glanced at the displeased wives with a sparkle in her eyes, forgetting all resistance to Kenshin's caresses.
Kenshin showed her onion slicing next and felt her press closer, purring sweetly. He was stunned by this naughty girl's strange transformation but definitely liked it. His thoughts were broken by Natsumi's tender chirp.
"Ah, Kenshin, could you move that heavy pot? Aya and I can't..." Natsumi purred plaintively.
Kenshin was a bit surprised that a fairly strong kunoichi was asking him to help carry something heavy. Even fifty kilograms shouldn't be a problem for a pregnant kunoichi, but he didn't ask any questions and calmly replied:
"Uh-huh, right now." And then he pulled away from Kasumi's graceful body and headed toward his affectionate wife, who immediately hugged him from behind as soon as he set the large pot on the stove.
Natsumi shamelessly began stroking his broad, muscular chest and kissing his neck, purring affectionately. Kasumi was shocked by such straightforward actions from this fox, while Aya just quietly giggled, covering her mouth with her hand. She wasn't jealous of her husband with her best friend at all, but she was displeased if Kenshin paid attention to a new girl.
"Hm? Darling, what's gotten into you?" Kenshin asked half-turning with a smile, but in response, Natsumi gracefully shifted position and pressed her lips to his in a kiss.
Kasumi gritted her teeth. She had always been a very competitive girl who also couldn't stand losing. Her upbringing in the Nara clan had made her unyielding and strong-willed, refusing to lose even now.
As soon as Kenshin broke the kiss with Natsumi, Kasumi immediately intervened, cleared her throat, and said in the most affectionate tone: "Oh, Kenshin, it seems I can't open this unusual faucet. Could you help?"
Kenshin was already starting to realize the atmosphere was heating up, and the two most active girls didn't want to yield to each other in anything. And yet he nodded and headed toward Kasumi. But at the moment he got closer, she finally turned on the water, and the powerful stream hit straight at the board that Kasumi "carelessly" held right under the faucet.
A spray of water flew in all directions, first and foremost soaking the tight white t-shirt of the girl who squealed in surprise. Kenshin quickly lunged forward and shut off the faucet, but it was too late. The girl's entire t-shirt was completely wet and clung to her toned body, forming an almost transparent outline of her incredible breasts.
Kenshin stared at the girl with his mouth open, and Kasumi couldn't hide the spark of satisfaction that flashed in her eyes, but Kenshin's gaze was directed not at her eyes, so he noticed nothing.
"Ah! How clumsy I am, oh god..." Kasumi groaned, inwardly rejoicing that Kenshin's attention for the next hour would be fixed only on her.
Aya and Natsumi reacted to this stunt differently. Aya quietly giggled at the cunning of their future sister-in-law, while Natsumi gritted her teeth, lamenting her pregnancy. If not for the baby in her belly, she would have gladly crushed this newbie and gone all the way in this competition, ready to give herself to Kenshin right on the kitchen table just to rub it in this arrogant newbie's face.
Everything happened just as Kasumi had calculated. Kenshin kept staring only at her firm tits visible through the transparent t-shirt fabric. He wanted to approach her countless times and grab those tempting, perky breasts, but he held back with his last strength, knowing it wasn't the time for that. If he did, his two pregnant wives would demand no less attention, and dinner would never get made. Besides, he didn't know how Kasumi would react if he rudely grabbed her tits. One thing was to outplay another girl in the heat of competition, and quite another to let him brazenly grope her.
