Luke and Meredith continued exercising and playing together for a few hours, until the two half-beasts fell into bed, passing out from exhaustion. Meredith was grateful that the plan had worked, happy that she had finally realized a dream.
The half-fox didn't feel bad about using the pheromones as a way to encourage Luke, after all, she knew that as much as it increased Luke's desire, it wouldn't cause him to completely lose control of his own body. In the end, it was nothing more and nothing less than an incentive for the half-wolf to make a decision, and she was quite grateful for Luke's choice.
Luke, on the other hand, had no time to think; he just collapsed from exhaustion. Sleeping in the embrace of his beloved Meredith. Balance watched the whole situation, as much as she tried not to pay attention, it was impossible for the Goddess to completely switch off her consciousness.
[This Luke... How can he be so...]
In a way, the Goddess was envious of Meredith and Luke, after all, she could never enjoy that kind of worldly pleasure. At least, that's what she imagined.
***
When Luke woke up he was confused about everything that had happened, after all, to him it all seemed like a dream. He was sure that the events had happened, he knew the feeling and the moment he had with Meredith, but the whole situation was so intense that it was hard to believe it had happened.
However, just by turning to the side he could already see Meredith lying on the bed, her body completely exposed. This was the greatest proof of what had occurred the night before. The moment Luke woke up, Meredith slowly opened her eyes and woke up as well. They had both slept a little longer than usual, and the clock in the bedroom showed that it was already two hours past their usual waking time.
The stimulating aroma that Meredith had used was no longer in the air, however, the urge to continue what had occurred the day before remained. Both Luke and Meredith exchanged glances, and when Luke lowered his eyes to the half-fox's mouth, he could not control himself and broke into a kiss.
The two then repeated every move from the previous night.
***
After another two hours of fooling around, the two half-beasts got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower together. Luke and Meredith got into the tub together and took care of every detail of the bath. That moment reminded them both of when they were younger, but somehow, there was a very different energy now.
Both of them were already satisfied, but there was a certain kind of pleasure with bathing with someone you love, as Luke ran a bar of soap over the half-fox's beautiful body, he noticed how smooth her skin felt with the water and how soft Meredith's body was.
Luke noticed every detail of Meredith's body, details that he hadn't paid as much attention to when he was exercising with her on the bed. The Half-fox had the same thought, running the soap down Luke's broad back, the girl realized what a great man he really had become.
Sometimes Meredith remembered how Luke was younger, a wild and somewhat reckless boy who couldn't read and had only an interest in battling and stealing. But now, he was a man interested in reading, thoughtful and analytical, but all this didn't change his interest in becoming stronger. Luke was now experienced, quite experienced. Both in the arts of combat, and in the arts of the bed.
The half-fox was thoughtful, as she lathered Luke's back. Several moments were running through her mind, like the day she said goodbye to him and the moment she found him again.
'I thought I had lost you forever, but I know you would never leave me' Meredith thought, 'You never left us...'
These thoughts only further increased the respect, admiration and love the girl felt for Luke. Extending her arms, she hugged Luke's back, resting his head on the half-wolf.
"That way you'll get your hair wet" Luke said, as he ran water over his body.
"I don't worry about it, I don't need to worry about anything when I'm with you" Meredith said.
"Well then at least wash your head, it's full of soap right now hahaha" Luke's laughter was in a way, one of the most attractive points for the half-fox. After all, it was hard to see the half-wolf laughing.
Meredith gave a smile, and began to run the soap over her body. This was already the second happiest day of her life, second only to the night before.

The two half-beasts came out of the bathroom and started to get ready, now, without worrying whether the other would see anything or not. They were in a way acting as if they were a couple, and it was precisely this doubt that was hanging over their heads.
While Meredith was thinking, 'Will he take me as a wife?'
Luke was wondering how he should explain this to Alexis and Ayumi, 'I can't imagine it would be a problem, but it's still something that makes me a little nervous'
Luke knew that both Alexis and Ayumi would not break up with him or fight with each other and Meredith, in fact Luke remembered Ayumi saying that it was okay for Luke to find lovers, as long as he kept giving her the attention and affection she needed.
Anyway, the half-wolf preferred to stop thinking about it, although the thought was still frequently popping into his head.
Luke made his way to the academy library, he was a little more interested in Zhanid's achievements. The half-wolf wanted to know what the old wizard had created, as well as, he was in need of checking some of the books that explained fire magic.
Meredith, on the other hand, made her way to class, where she would again meet her friends, the group of Ruby Vermillion, Hawk Vermillion's sister.
As much as Luke knew that Meredith was friends with his future opponent's sister, he preferred not to ask for support from the half-fox, not just yet, after all, he wanted Meredith to be able to have a quiet time within Melki's academy.
Just as Luke was evolving and resting at the academy, he wanted Meredith to have less to worry about during that time.
*
As Luke walked through the central square of the academy, Meredith hurried off to her class, the two waved goodbye, and went their separate ways. Luke was feeling completely refreshed after the previous night, the feeling of relaxation that his body possessed was amazing.
Still, the first moment Meredith moved out of his vision, Luke's countenance turned serious again. He was going over in his head what needed to be done, his preparations and plans.
Luke needed to return to Ezra, to check on the progress of the weapon he had requested. After that, he would need to talk with Megan and Alice to continue designing the mana stabilizer. In addition, the half-wolf would still need to investigate Max Willford, Hawk Vermillion and Ruby Vermillion. Checking the information of these three in the academy's administration files.
There was a lot for him to do, after all, in order to be able to challenge Max and complete his plan, it was also necessary to be physically well. In the end, there were too many questions for Luke to plan.
[We need to first set a course, make a planning and a strategy to deal with these challenges]
'Yes... But I am accepting suggestions'
[Why don't we start with the studies, then we'll talk to Ezra and Megan]
Yeah, in the end, I just need to take a step.
Luke then went on his way to one of the academy's libraries. He slowly made his way out of those marble buildings and into a forest, as he followed the path to the building.
The forest was dense and calm, with the sun's rays penetrating through the leaves of the trees. The concrete path made for a quiet walk, Luke enjoyed the scenery as he made his way. As he approached the library building, Luke noticed that the surrounding vegetation was more manicured, with beautiful flower beds and ornamental plants, which was a bit different from the large forest on the island.
The library was an imposing building, with a white marble facade that shone in the sunlight. At its entrance, two large solid wood doors opened to reveal a spacious foyer, lit by a skylight high above the ceiling.
The floor was marble, with colorful mosaics depicting heroic magicians. Walking through the shelves of books, Luke was surprised by the vastness of the library. The bookshelves stretched over several floors, reaching to the ceiling.
The stairs leading from one shelf to another seemed to float in the air, magically supported by invisible supports by wind magic. The shelves were filled with books of all sizes, shapes and colors. Some were so large they seemed to weigh a ton, while others were so small they could fit in the palm of your hand.
Some books were old, but all were kept dust-free, some had worn leather covers and gold lettering engraved on the outside. Others were new and shiny, with brightly colored covers.
