My Yandere Wives are Transcendents-Chapter 270: Am I not a woman in his eyes?

Third Person's POV

Eli found himself captivated by the sight of Mia's delicate, white skin, his internal struggle evident in the flicker of his gaze.

"B-Brother?"

"....'Deep breath'...N-Nothing" Eli stammered, a bead of sweat forming on his forehead as he fought to control his surging hormones.

With careful deliberation, he began to scrub Mia's back, the touch of his soapy hands gentle yet charged with an unspoken tension.

"~Hmff~"

Mia's sudden moan sent an unexpected jolt through Eli, and he couldn't ignore the palpable shift in the atmosphere.

"..." Something deep within him twitched in response.

Eli, biting his lips, continued to scrub her back, his mind racing with conflicting thoughts. How did he find himself in this situation, acting as Mia's personal bath attendant?

Meanwhile, Mia, seemingly oblivious to Eli's internal struggle, revelled in the attention, enjoying the soothing sensation of his hands on her back...while glancing at him.

Eli's mind wandered to the earlier events that led him here:

"B-Big Brother, I-I-we--Y-You s-stink. Yes, You stink!! G-Go and take a bath first" Mia had insisted, her attempts to push him towards the bathroom filled with a mix of playfulness and determination.

"Huh? I don't think it's necessary" Eli tried to resist, but Mia's insistence was unwavering.

"VOO! I don't want my brother to stink" Mia scrunched her nose, her expression a playful blend of innocence and mischief.

"...." Eli sniffed himself, his confusion evident, 'I don't smell anything different though!' He thought, acutely aware that he had meticulously removed anything related to Zera, even taking measures to eliminate any lingering odour. Yet, Mia, with her keen sense, sniffed him and detected something odd about his scent.

'Does she really smell something, or is it just her playful imagination?' he wondered, questioning the validity of Mia's supposed 'Woman's intuition'.

With a defeated sigh and constant nagging from his little sister, Eli reluctantly entered the bathroom, the ambience suddenly shifting to a more intimate setting.

The bathroom itself was 'simple'..... a modest space with a single bathtub and a shower.

Eli, now alone in the bathroom, removed his dress with a mix of reluctance and curiosity. The unusual nature of the situation had his mind in turmoil. As he placed the dress in his inventory and tucked the phone away in a drawer, Eli couldn't help but ponder the unexpected turn of events that happened today.... a tired sigh escaped from his mouth.

He looked down and noticed his 'thing' still in a state of vigour, a mix of discomfort and pain registering on his face. Sighing, he adjusted its position upwardly, coaxing it to a more neutral state, and swiftly wrapped a white towel around his hips and around it also.

'Now it looks normal' Eli thought, successfully adjusting his state to a more neutral one. With the possibility of his mischievous sister entering the bathroom, he wanted to look like normal..... not a horny freak.

'ssshhhhh'

While Eli immersed himself in the shower, Mia anxiously paced outside.

"W-What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?..." Mia muttered rapidly, her nerves apparent as she nervously bit her nails. Clad in nothing but a simple towel wrapped around her chest, she circled in front of the bathroom door.

Her face, neck, and ears flushed a deep crimson as the sound of the shower filled the air. Despite her initial plan, the thought of executing it made her shy away.....You know, she was a shy girl, to begin with. Her hands almost reached for the doorknob, but the image of seeing Eli's naked body made her hesitate.

Her legs wobbled, and her hands trembled in excitement.

'Come on, Mia, you can do it!!' she tried to encourage herself..... only to second-guess her bold intentions, 'M-May be next time?' she pondered, conflicted about taking advantage of this chance, their first time being alone.

'Ssshhhh....'

When the shower turned off, Mia's expression shifted to a determined grimace as she entered the bathroom.

'Thud'

"B-big B--Brother?"

Just as he predicted, Mia entered the bathroom.

'Sigh, thankfully I bathed with the towel' Eli thought, stealing a glance below.... his towel remained plain as a wall, with no signs of awkward tents.

"I thought I was the only one going to bathe?" Eli casually asked, noticing her eyes shaking like crazy.

This was her first time seeing him in years, and of course, she was taken aback by his chiselled body, water dripping from it---a sensory overload!!.

"W-Well, I-I thought, W-Why don't we save w-water?" Mia stammered, attempting an explanation while struggling to meet his gaze.

"Oh! Really?" Eli responded with an amused tone.

"Y-Yes, I-I was, you know, I...I...I...." Mia continued to stutter, resembling an old tape recorder.

"..." Eli smiled, realizing he might have pushed her too far. It was her first time acting bravely, so he decided to steer clear of any uncomfortable conversations. He slid away from the awkward topic and walked towards her.

"!!!!" Mia flinched when Eli touched her shoulder.

"I will wash your hair; go and sit" he said, his tone calm and gentle, ensuring she felt at ease.

"...Y-Yes" Mia nodded rapidly, immediately taking a seat on the stool.

'Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!...' Mia screamed inwardly as if she had successfully executed her plan.

Yes, her plan was merely for Eli to wash her with his gentle and caring hands, reminiscent of the..... old days.

'ssshhhwww'

Eli gently poured water over Mia's white, silky hair, meticulously combing through its strands before starting to wash it.

"Hmm~Hmm~Hmm~" Mia hummed with genuine delight, the pleasure evident in the small smile playing on her lips.

Observing Mia's joy, Eli couldn't help but smile in response.

Just as he was about to rinse Mia's hair, a shift in her demeanour caught Eli's attention. Mia, who had been hesitating to look directly at him, suddenly focused on his lower half,

"Huh?" Mia's expression turned blank as she saw no reaction, and a wave of insecurity washed over her, 'A-Am I not a woman in his eyes?' she pondered, her vibrant eyes losing a bit of their sparkle.

Having observed how her brother reacted to her big sister with just a single glance, Mia yearned for a similar 'love'.

However...

"Mia, take care of the rest" Eli said, a pained expression crossing his face as his physical reaction became increasingly evident.....his 'thing' getting tighter and tighter.

Snapping out of her doubt, Mia stuttered, "B-Brother?"

"Yes?"

"I-I..." Mia bit her trembling lips and,

"I-I..." Mia bit her trembling lips, contemplating a bold move,

'Rustle, Rustle'

She loosened her towel, presenting her back to Eli, "P-Please scrub my back t-too... I can't reach with my hands" she requested, her face turning beet red.

"...."

Eli was taken aback by Mia's sudden boldness, a mixture of surprise and discomfort evident on his face.

Coming to the present,

'H-He is still n-not...' Mia trembled in fear when she saw no reaction from Eli, holding back tears as uncertainty gnawed at her. Summoning courage, she resolved to take a bold step.

After Eli finished washing her back, he was about to rinse her when,

"F-Front! B-Brother Front!" Mia stuttered as she turned her body to face Eli.

Eli stared at Mia's bright red face and trembling body, there was a thin fabric she was holding in her trembling hand. She wanted to move her hand and show her body to her only Eli however for some reason she trembled in fear.

Not that Eli would ever mistreat her--she was 100% certain about that....However, 'What if he is not excited?' She trembled at the thought that her body might not entice Eli.

'Sigh' Eli sighed when he saw her forcing herself. He didn't understand the reason for this, but he did know what to do.

"Huh?' Mia was startled when she saw Eli wrapping her towel around. Biting her lips as she was about to ask when,

'Splash'

"OHH!!"

Mia shivered as Eli poured water over her body then he picked her up and entered the tub with her.

"..." Mia was surprised by Eli's unexpected actions, but she didn't mind. As she leaned her back on his chest while sitting on his lap, a mixture of relief and warmth enveloped her.

Eli waited for a few minutes, allowing her to collect her thoughts and emotions. After that,

"So?"

"..." Mia understood what he was asking, but finding the right words.....

"Little Mia~" Eli whispered in her ears as he hugged her tightly.

A hug that broke both her fear and worries.

Mia felt her insecurities fading away gradually. Hesitantly, she voiced the heart of her concern, "A-Am I not a w-woman to you?" The vulnerability in her voice laid bare the depth of her emotions.

"..." Eli frowned when he heard her question, his mind grappling with the significance behind her inquiry, 'Why does she even ask that?....Hmm.....Oh? Oh....sigh' With a sudden realization, he gently made her turn her head.

Looking at her teary face and trembling shoulders, Eli couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.

"Little Mia~" He wanted to slap himself for not addressing her concerns sooner, and he rubbed away her tears, locking eyes with her.

"Do you truly want to know?"

"Hmm," Mia nodded vigorously, despite the discomfort, wanting to hear the truth.....so that she could adjust her 'strategy' accordingly. She wasn't letting him go.

"sigh" Eli sighed and loosened his towel around his hips.

Yes, they entered the tub along with their towels.

As soon as the towel loosened, the 'Thing' that had been tense finally relaxed, and,

"~Hmm~'

Mia suddenly jerked when she felt something hitting her back.

"W-What is it?" Mia was shocked, 'It's long, hard, h-hot and, t-ticc...'

"splash"

She ran away immediately.

The sound of Mia's hurried footsteps echoed in the bathroom.

"Hahahahahaha..." Eli burst into genuine laughter when he saw Mia running away like a startled cat.

'What's the point of running away when she wanted to know?' Eli really wanted to ask and tease her more but refrained from it.

'~ha~'

'~ha~'

Mia, on the outside of the bathroom door, panted heavily. Her face was beet red, and she trembled in happiness.

"H-he t-turned on, turned on.... That means he sees me as a woman, right?" She asked herself with a darkened expression.

"Hehe-heheheheh...heheheheh..." Mia laughed like a maniac as her lower body felt weird. The room, once filled with laughter, now held the echo of her joyous madness.

"YAY!!!!" She shouted in happiness as if she had achieved something, the sound reverberating through the room. She immediately wore a bathrobe and waited for Eli to come while she dried her hair.

Eli, slightly soothed in the warm water, eventually came out of the bathroom. He saw Mia loosely wearing the bathrobe, sitting on the chair with a comb in her hand and looking at him with eager eyes.

Eli smiled, understanding what she was waiting for. He obliged her wish and began to gently comb her hair.

"hehehe...." The room echoed with Mia's light laughter.

'rustle, rustle'

The gentle sound harmonised with the rustle of her damp hair being styled. Eli's hands moved with practised ease, creating a familiar ponytail style and comforting pattern with each twist of the braids in.

"Good?" Eli asked a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Hehe... I don't need to see the mirror because I know my brother" Mia replied with a sly smile, the bond she never forgot and would not.

Eli shook his head with heartful happiness. He was about to proceed with dressing up when,

"B-Brrottthherr!!" Mia suddenly shouted, her exclamation punctuated by a small collision as she slipped on the water dripping from Eli's body, inadvertently pulling him with her.

'Thud'

Thankfully, the bed was near the table, softening their unexpected tumble.

"...."

"...."

Mia landed on the bed, a surprised gasp escaping her lips, while Eli found himself on top of her.

Eli looked down at her, his face tinged with a rosy hue. Mia's robe had loosened during the tumble, revealing a glimpse of her cleavage and almost exposing her white thighs.

"B~Big~Bro~ha~ther" Mia's breath hitched as she noticed her brother's heated eyes.

Eli, drawn by an unspoken connection, leaned in closer. Their eyes locked, creating a moment suspended in time.

"Ashy~"

A single word broke the spell.
