Chapter 376

«Go to your room, now!» – Kyon ordered sternly.

Eve and Leila disappeared. Zosimos had beaten a dozen burly men! They did not dare to disobey him. They could not. They didn’t want to.

When Kyon returned to the room, he found the dazzlingly beautiful girls waiting for him on the bed. Their frightened glances followed him as he approached, kneeled before them and said with concern in his voice: «Eve, Leila, listen to me. The beauty you inherited from your mother is so irresistible that anyone who sees your faces, men in particular, wants to take you. They might lack the courage to take action, or they might be too noble for that, but you shouldn’t take risks. The desire to get you might let their dark side out.»

Lovr really meant it. Their inexplicable beauty could charm anyone, including women. Could the girls stand up for themselves? It was a whole different story. Anyway, the sisters considered themselves weak, which was only expected.

«Uhm… Where is our mother?» – Leila asked.

«She…» – Zosimos closed his eyes. – «Ten years ago, she went to heaven… In the literal sense of the term. Your mother is a goddess, and she had duties in the upper world that she couldn’t give up. The way to us is closed for her forever.»

«Our mom is a goddess?» – She exclaimed.

Now Eve and Leila understood why they had such beautiful faces and unusual eyes.

Kyon sat on the edge of the bed and began his story, staring into the distance: «Goddess Lily was a wonder of wonders. I never thought that I could marry the one who ruled heaven. We met under very unusual circumstances…»

While Lovr was telling them his cover story, he wondered if he should mention Synergy. What consequences might it have for him? Lovr assumed that he could always escape and made his decision. If worse came to worst, his incredible abilities wouldn’t hurt. They would only increase the chances of his survival.

«Uhm… How can I put this… I wonder what she saw in you.» – Leila asked bluntly. – «I am sorry for being rude! It’s just… If I were a goddess, I would never have turned my noble head to a bald, pot-bellied man… Ouch!» – She covered her mouth with her hands, fearing that she had said too much, but daddy didn’t get angry. He only laughed in response.

«I used to be stronger and have more hair! But Lily was more interested in my incredible talent! My appearance, character, and other qualities came next…»

«What talent?» – The girls asked in unison.

Kyon put out his hand to let Synergy pour out. It transformed into a cube, then into a diamond, a ball, and finally, even a human being. The girls’ eyes lit up with genuine curiosity and admiration as they silently watched the unimaginable scene.

Anticipating Leila’s question, Lovr added: «I can create anything, and it doesn’t require any special concentration. I won your mother’s heart with my imagination, passion, and creativity… I staged shows for her, and not only that.»

«So devious!» – Leila praised him with respect.

«Can you show us our mum?» – Eve asked timidly.

«Of course, honey!» – Synergy created an image of a beautiful woman whose face had characteristic features of both girls. One eye glowed green, throbbed slightly dark red, which had to explain why the girls had different eyes.

The girls talked animatedly, watching the bright image until Lovr closed his hand: «I will show you something interesting later, sweethearts. How about having breakfast?»

~grr~

The girls’ stomachs rumbled at the same time. They blushed up to their ears and nodded: «I am hungry…» … «I could eat an elephant!»

«Then wait for me here and not a step outside!» – Zosimos warned them sternly.

«Yeah!» … «Sure!»

When he left, Leila looked outside to make sure he was gone. Then she came up to Eve and asked her bluntly: «Why do you think he is our father?»

Eve put out a fist: «I have several reasons to trust him…» – She held up a finger. – «We both resemble him a bit, which wouldn’t happen if he were a stranger, or at least, not both of us at once.» – She held up a second finger. – «The story of how our parents met sounds real. It all adds up if we are goddess’s kids! Our beauty, our eyes, and the power he once mentioned…» – She held up a third finger. – «He is quite sincere. Either he’s a good actor, or he is really our father. I will never forget that he protected us.» – She held up a fourth finger. – «Look at yourself. You are clean and tidy. Your dress is beautiful and your wounds have been treated! It means that he took care of us while we were unconscious. He saw us naked but didn’t do any bad things! Considering how beautiful we are, I don’t doubt that he is a good man… otherwise, he would not have resisted his dirty nature like those men downstairs.»

{Clever girl!} – Kyon, who was eavesdropping their conversation through the formations on their foreheads, was moved.

«And still…» – Leila winced sceptically. – «I have a feeling… My heart tells me that I have no father and never had! I want to believe my heart…»

«I have the same feeling!» – Eve exclaimed, raising her eyebrows.

«Really? You see!» – Leila smiled, taking her sister’s hands in hers.

«But… There’s nothing we can do even if we’re wrong. Two beautiful girls who have lost their memory… What can we do even if he is not our father? Let him be our guardian! Let’s pretend that we consider him our daddy. If he does anything bad, then… then we’ll come up with something. We can run away, for example. Okay?»

«You are cleverer than I thought!» – Leila smiled, stroking her sister’s head. – «I’ll call you my little sister. You will be the voice of reason! Okay?» – She held out her hand for a handshake.

Eve was embarrassed. She knew that they were the same age, but she could not say no. Leila and her looked quite mature in her opinion, but Eve did not want to argue, not in this situation: «I agree.» – She muttered, shaking hands with Leila. Eve was not as bold and straightforward as Leila, but she was sensible and reasonable. They perfectly complemented each other.

Soon Zosimus entered the room with a large tray full of sweet and salty treats: «Enjoy, my precious ones! You must be hungry after everything you’ve been through…»

«We’re starving.» – Eve nodded and grabbed her fork and knife. She couldn’t understand why she used utensils like a noble lady.

«Bon appetit!» – Leila unceremoniously started to eat.

Kyon concluded that Eve was a shy girl, possibly afraid of men. During the meal, she constantly glanced at him sideways, ready for any attack. Anyway, she was calm and rational. As for Leila, she lived up to her pixie looks. She meant trouble, brave, stubborn, straightforward, mean, living in her own world… Patience, Lovr, patience.

As soon as her hunger was sated, Leila jumped onto the bed and said proudly, crossing her legs: «You should treat me like a goddess, tio, if you are my father, which I am not sure! Your daughter is the most beautiful girl ever! You won’t find anyone like me in the whole world! Am I right?»

{Not by a long sight.} – Kyon could hardly hold back from snapping.

Eve bit her lips in frustration. She was no less beautiful than her sister, but she was too modest to say it out loud.

Lovr took Leila’s tender hand and kissed it gently: «Queen of my life, I swear to faithfully take care of you, even if I am dying!» – He held out his hand to Eve to repeat the “oath, but she turned her head and walked two steps away. He didn’t insist.

«Well, your oath doesn’t sound convincing, but it will do!» – Leila nodded condescendingly.

~knock-knock~

«The doctor came to see you!» – Zosimos exclaimed happily.

«The doctor?» – Eve repeated, afraid.

Kyon opened the door, and a woman in white coat entered the room – another undercover subordinate of his. Eve visibly relaxed, which once again suggested an idea that she was afraid of men.

«They are awake! Great!» – The doctor was in her early thirties. As she approached her patients, the girls could smell herbs and medicine. – «How do you feel, darlings?»

«Not bad.» … «It could be better!»

«They have lost memory and act childish…» – Zosimos stated sadly.

«Hmmm…» – The doctor took out a flashlight with a lighting crystal inside and shone it into her patients’ eyes. – «I’ve never happened to treat anything like this. Total dissociative amnesia with age-related changes…»

«When is it over, doctor?» – Leila asked directly.

«Maybe in a week, maybe in a mother, or maybe never!»

«Uhm…» – Leila looked disappointed, and Eve cast her eyes down, sorrowful.

«Any brain injury is unpredictable, and there’s no universal cure for their numerous consequences.»

«How can we speed up their recovery?» – Zosimos sounded genuinely concerned.

«I can only recommend that they keep a consistent sleep schedule, take it easy and eat more fish. That is the extent of my knowledge.» – The doctor shrugged.

The girls looked helplessly at each other.

«Don’t worry, girls. You have nothing to be afraid of with a father like yours.» – She came nearer to the girls and whispered. – «Between you and me, everyone wants to be a child again! You’re lucky!»

«What do you know about our situation? We couldn’t care less about your prehistoric notions, tia!» – Leila snarled.

The doctor cleared her throat: «Let me tend to your wounds. Get undressed.»

The girls tensed and stared at their father.

Eve hid behind her sister’s back, and Leila tilted her head in surprise: «What are you staring at? Do you want to admire the naked goddesses, bold hog? In your dreams! Get out of here!» – She screamed, pointing at the door.

Kyon was about to roll his eyes, but then he smiled: «As you say, honey.»

When the door slammed shut behind him, the girls had the courage to undress. The doctor took off their bandages and examined the patients. She listened to their hearts and breath sounds. Then she took out a syringe and said: «The injuries have healed, but your bodies have not fully recovered yet. Some vitamin injections will do you good.»

«А-а-аа-а-ааа-ааа-аh!» – Eve squealed at the sight of the needle.

«Whoa… Old crone…» – Leila mumbled, retreating.

~бам~

«What’s all the noise?» – Zosimos burst into the room.

«I just wanted to inject some vitamins…» – The doctor mumbled.

«You want our blood, old hag?» – Leila yelled accusingly.

«No injections! The girls don’t like them!» – Zosimos took the doctor by the hand and led her outside.

When Lovr came back, the girls were already dressed. Their eyes were full of resentment and gratitude at once.

«Did you see everything?» – Leila hissed unkindly.

«Uhm…» – Kyon shrugged. – «So what?»

«Then you must take full responsibility!»

«For what?» – Lovr seemed not to understand.

Leila and Eve looked at each other, perplexed.

«I don’t know. For anything…» – Leila blushed, feeling like a fool. She always acted on emotional outbursts, but now that her memory was gone she had nothing to say.

«I am your father, my love! I am responsible for everything. I will do anything for you. I will fulfill your every whim, your every desire within reasonable limits, of course. I only want one thing in return: your obedience. Is it clear?»

«I will try.» – Leila grumbled. – «But I don’t promise anything!» – She added hastily.

«I will obey you, father. Thank you for taking our side. And thank you for saving us from those bad men downstairs.» – Eve said quietly.

Kyon was feeling a hero, even if this whole injection scene, as well as the fight in the tavern, had been thoroughly staged: «I will move the world for you. Take some rest and then we hit the road.»

«Where to?» – They asked in unison.

«We’re going to Athens for a day and then to the capital city of Dantes!» – Zosimos announced solemnly.

The girls flapped their hands in excitement.
