Chapter 146 146: The deal of the night
Bambi instantly regretted coming back to the party. All eyes were on her since she had just come back from being with Yoko Tsurugi. Everyone wanted to know what to think of the next Tsurugi head.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Bambi, come with me right now. I think there is much we need to discuss among us."
Bambi flinched as soon as she heard her grandfather's voice. Anyone could tell that the old man was angry at her. This conversation was going to suck so much.
There was no way to prevent the confrontation that was about to happen. Bambi would have to sit there and hear her grandfather talking down to her.
He led Bambi into a secluded corner but that was not enough to prevent the curious eyes from looking at them. Those who wanted to know what was happening would find a way to listen in anyway.
"Grandfather, this place is not the…"
"Bambi, you fool. I asked you to keep that Yoko Tsurugi in check, not to become her best friend. Did you see her attitude? There is no way we can ever let her do as she pleases. You need to find a way to crush her somehow."
Elder Clent had always believed that his family was superior to the Tsurugi family. His family had a long history and it had always served an important position.
In his opinion, the Tsurugi family was useless and a shame in the name of the upper class. The Tsurugi head boasted about being 'the' beast tamers but the whole world knew that it was a sham.
The ability to control the beasts was swindling every generation and it would soon disappear from this world. Then, the Tsurugi household would fall as well.
"Grandfather, what if the rumors surrounding Yoko Tsurugi are true? What if she can control the beasts and use them?"
Bambi had seen it with her own eyes. That snake beast had listened to Yoko and followed her instructions. There was no way to fake such a thing.
"Foolish girl. There is nothing like beast-taming in this world. It had always been a lie fed to the public by the Tsurugi household so that they could maintain their social status. You better watch your words when you talk to me, alright?"
Elder Clent was raging now. He was about to lose his inhibition and smack Bambi when an arm landed on Bambi's shoulder and pulled her back into a soft chest.
"Hello, Elder Clent. I am here to take my dear friend since I need to talk to her. I hope you do not mind me doing this."
Yoko Tsurugi had the most infuriating smile Elder Clent had seen in his life. He wanted to smack her face as well. But he had to control his desire to harm Yoko Tsurugi.
Not only was the public setting, but he had also declared her as Bambi's friend.
Even if he had been humiliated, it was given that he would have to be the bigger man and forgive Yoko.
"Tsk, fine brat. You may have my granddaughter for now. But don't you dare think that you have won? This is a temporary truce that will fall through the second you decided to do anything foolish
The one most confused by all this was Bambi. She did not know why she was stuck between the two. She could feel Yoko's hand resting on her waist and it send tingles down her spine.
Something was intoxicating about Yoko's scent that made her lean up against Yoko more.
"Lady Bambi, let's take our leave now. I am sure your grandfather would not mind us deepening our relationship."
The elder was about to comment on it when Yoko walked away with Bambi in her arms.
Bambi Clent was not used to being treated so specially by anyone. Her face had a natural blush under her make-up and she could not bring it down.
"Your make-up is different from before. Did something happen?"
Bambi asked this question to distract herself from her thoughts. She felt Yoko's hand shift over her waist and somehow, it made her want that hand grab some other part of her body.
'How good would it feel if that hand fucked my pussy? I swear that Yoko would be able to reach my pleasure point easily.'
Bambi would not call herself a bisexual person. She had been mainly attracted to males until now.
This might be the first time she had found herself sexually frustrated with another woman and somehow Bambi did not mind or denied this attraction. Yoko's aura was too dominant for that to happen.
Once they were out of the public eye, Yoko let go of Bambi. That made Bambi feels disappointed but she easily covered that feeling.
"Yoko Tsurugi, what do you want from me? And what happened to the beast you were carrying around? Do you, have it?"
Bambi questioned with a cautious voice.
As interested as she was in Yoko, she would not risk her well-being over satisfying her curiosity.
"Are you talking about my beast? Hibi is here somewhere. It was getting frustrating being with me all the time so I set it free in this space. I am sure it will be having a fun time right about now."
Bambi jolted as soon as she heard Yoko's words. The sudden danger of her situation donned over her senses and she looked surprised by what she heard.
"You are saying that you unleashed a dangerous beast right in the middle of this party with so many important and dignified people? Do you know what would happen to you if you are caught? You might be killed."
Bambi spoke up with a surprised expression. She could not warp her head around what Yoko Tsurugi had done.
This required some serious guts as well as will pull off.
"As if any of these people are important enough to cause a fuss if they die. Don't look so scared. I assure you that nothing would happen today. Hibi is trained and would not show itself in front of people."
Hearing Yoko's words, Bambi was not able to contain her laugh. It was filled with relief and disbelief at the same time.
"Y-You just unleashed a deadly beast in the middle of the official Protected and endangered beast council meeting hall and you are not even afraid? Man, I cannot believe I met someone this crazy."
Bambi was more than aware that she was nursing a crush on Yoko Tsurugi now.
This was dangerous and it could not be allowed to nurture into anything more. The Tsurugi family was her sworn enemy. One they had to defeat at any cost.
"Anyway, this is enough about me and my beast. I called you out here because I needed your help. I think you might know what I am talking about as well."
Bambi was curious to know what Yoko was about to say. Just what was so important was that Yoko had to drag Bambi out in the middle of her conversation with her grandfather.
"You must have heard rumors about my late response already, right?"
Of course, Bambi had heard rumors about it. She was an icon of the upper class and here, information was power. If you knew your opponent, you could make them bow down to you.
"I might have heard a thing or two. Are you telling me that you did not get the invitation on time?"
At first, Bambi had thought that this rumor had to be false at all costs. There was no way someone would pull a prank like this. And especially not with the Tsurugi household.
But now she could see that it was the truth. Someone had dared to try and humiliate the Tsurugi house.
"Hmm, that rumor is true. I see that you have a solid and reliable information network you can utilize at any time. I want you to use this network to help me out. So, what do you say?"
This was a good opportunity for Bambi to fuck Yoko over.
She could feed her false information and cause a rift between her and her family. Heck, she could even use this opportunity to make a profit from her house.
There was so much Bambi could do that it was not even funny.
But in the end, she decided to not say this to Yoko. She had a reason to gain favor with Yoko Tsurugi as well and it was because of her future.
Bambi wanted to gain freedom from her house and get out of her grandfather's watchful eyes. She wanted to live her life freely.
"Alright, I will help you out. But in return, you must help me out as well. I will send you an invite clad in yellow tomorrow. Once you get it, do come, and meet me. I might have some news for you."
A single night was not enough for most people to find out any information. But it was enough for Bambi to find out a lot.
