Chapter 784: A Wife's worry

While the Reich was at war, almost all of its neighbors, the Royal Family was at ease, knowing that it was virtually impossible for the enemy to penetrate their borders. Because of this, Henrietta was relaxing in the Harem room naked while Adela applied oil to her body. The two cousins were enjoying each other's company while their husband was away at war.

At the moment, Henrietta was pregnant, but not noticeably so. It was still too early for her belly to be bulging. However, the fact remained that she was carrying Berengar's child, and because of this Adela spent her free time looking after the girl, making sure she had a healthy pregnancy.

Ever since Adela had undergone Linde's special training, she and Henrietta had grown exceptionally close, they bathed together, ate together, slept in the same bed every night, even if Berengar wasn't there to be with them, and they helped raise each other's kids.

Finally, the two of them had a moment alone, and were being intimate with one another, oiling each other's bodies before spending some intimate time together. Adela took a fat drag from the hookah, which was filled with hashish and shisha tobacco alike, before exhaling it all over Henrietta's milky back.

Henrietta shivered slightly with a smile on her face as she felt the smoke attach itself to her body. Adela applied oil to her chest before pressing her bare breasts against the girl's back, massaging her in a manner that her husband always enjoyed.

It was at this moment that Linde burst through the door with a panicked expression on her face. Word had just come over the wire at the stunt Berengar had played with the Pope, and she was distraught.

Even though she could confirm he was unharmed, the idea of the idiot lighting himself on fire troubled the young woman's mind. She was about to report this news to Adela and Henrietta when she saw the scandalous state they were in.

Normally, the redheaded beauty would take control of the situation and force the two girls to pleasure her, but she simply wasn't in the mood. She could only scold the girls for being so relaxed during a time of crisis.

"Have you two any shame? Our husband just did something monumentally stupid, and you're here fucking like rabbits?"

Henrietta frowned when she saw that Linde was interrupting her intimate moment with Adela and spoke back to the woman.

"Big brother is fine. There's nobody on this planet who can kill him. I'm sure you're just over-reacting. How about you join us Linde, I wouldn't mind burying my head in those lovely tits of yours? Lord knows big brother is madly in love with them. I just want to find out why?"

Linde was not in the mood to deal with Henrietta's flirting and instantly began to speak up about what Berengar had done.

"I have no time for your nonsense, Henrietta. My husband just lit himself on fire!"

Henrietta and Adela immediately stopped the sensual massage and gazed at Linde with shock, speaking at the same time as if their minds were connected.

"He did what?"

Although they were deeply concerned for Berengar's safety, they were more shocked by what he had done. After all, it was such a peculiar thing. Adela was the first to speak up further about the incident.

"Oh my God, is he okay? Why would he do that? Tell us everything!"

Linde immediately sat down beside the two women and began to explain everything she knew about the situation.

"I don't know much. They say he is fine. But apparently to demonstrate a point about God forsaking the Catholic Church, he built a great pyre and doused himself and the Catholic leaders with diesel. He then lit himself aflame and spread the fire to the rest of them. The Pope and all of his Cardinals were burnt to ash, but he remained entirely unharmed. Do you think he had the backing of a god and that was why he dared to do something so stupid?"

There was obvious worry on Linde's face even if she knew the man was alright. Henrietta found this cute, and sat upright next to the woman and hugged her for comfort. She made sure every word she said would console Linde.

"You know how big brother is. He may be fearless, but he wouldn't do something like this without an absolute certainty that he would walk away unscathed. If the report says he's unharmed, then he is fine, and there is nothing to worry about.

I trust him completely. Even if he did do something stupid like light himself on fire, there must be a reason for it. I know you trust him as well, so don't be worried about his safety. There is nothing in this world that can kill my brother. Lord only knows how many have tried."

Linde rested her head on Henrietta's bare shoulder while she sighed heavily. She could never stand it while Berengar was away, however her heart especially bled every time she heard a word that he might have been injured. She did not know how the other girls could remain so calm about this situation. I mean, the man lit himself on fire.

While the woman sulked, Henrietta took a drag on the hookah and exhaled heavily into the air. The atmosphere had turned from amorous to depressing and because of that; she eyed up Linde's perfect body before asking the question on her mind.

"So, are you going to join us or not?"

Linde thought about it for a few moments before shaking her head. She was too depressed to have fun with the two girls and decided she would just go have a drink instead.

"You two enjoy yourselves. I need a drink..."

After saying this, she got up and left, where Henrietta proceeded to lie back down on the mattress and presented her ass in the air with a sultry smirk on her face.

"Now where were we?"

Adela gazed off to where Linde had run off to and sighed. She could always admire just how much Linde cared about Berengar, but it was really nothing to be worried about. Instead, she shook her head, thinking that Linde was really depressed if she wasn't willing to have fun with them. Still, there was not much she could do about that, and decided to apply more oil to her breast before entertaining herself with her cousin.

"Right about here!"

Linde would have a drink or two before getting over the news of Berengar's foolish escapades. She just needed time to sulk and get over the shock that she felt upon receiving the news that the man had lit himself on fire. She would be back to normal in a matter of hours.
