The Primal Hunter
Chapter 621
Vesperia stared at Meira, Meira stared at both Jake and Vesperia as she shifted between them, and Jake tried to look at neither, feeling awkward as fuck. He considered asking for Villy to beam him up and allow him to escape. Or, at the very least, for someone to please cut the building tension.
”If you were asking if Jake succeeded in the ritual outside, then yes. As the result of the aforementioned ritual, I am pleased to meet you, miss?” Vesperia asked gracefully as she stood up to greet Meira.
”M… Meira,” the elf said and bowed awkwardly, looking shell-shocked. Jake was pleasantly surprised at the Hive Queen taking the lead as Meira got stuck on a minor detail he had not seen coming.
”You are calling Lord Thayne by his name?” she asked, her voice a mix between puzzlement and… second-hand offense?
”That is what was asked of me, and I simply follow the wishes of my sire. Ah, where are my manners? I am Vesperia, True Royal of the Vespernat Lineage. It is a pleasure to meet you, Meira. Are you also a resident here?” Vesperia asked courteously.
”I am,” Meira said with a nod, her eyes holding some level of hostility.
Vesperia clearly noticed this and looked toward Jake before shifting back to Meira and smiling while shaking her head. She looked at Meira, staring into her eyes for a moment before Meira’s face turned red as a tomato. ”I… I gotta go!”
Jake did not have time to say anything as Meira rushed out of the living room, straight towards her own residency. He stared after her before shifting his attention to Vesperia. Without him needing to say a word, she had ”fixed” the awkwardness and made Meira leave… but…
”What did you say to her?”
She had clearly told Meira something telepathically; he was sure of it.
”I simply dispelled her fears. The girl is clearly interested in having you as her mate, and I informed her that I am no obstacle to her desires,” Vesperia explained in a matter-of-fact tone.
Yeah, that should do it, Jake thought, considering her embarrassment as she left. It did feel awkward that it was so obvious even to others.
”Ah, but do not take offense that I don’t consider you a potential partner. As my sire, it simply wouldn’t be proper, and the result would likely be less than ideal as I have already inherited many of your Records, and our offspring could display negative traits akin to the children of incestuous relationships between humans,” she once more explained, her voice calm, as if she was talking about a totally normal subject.
However, her words were honestly a huge relief, as Jake just feared he had made a potentially literal honeytrap in the form of the Wasp Queen. She also honestly seemed like a scary-as-hell opponent if she decided he would be an ideal partner. He could only shudder at the thought.
”Good to know,” Jake said with relief. ”If it is worth anything, then I also find it preferable for that not to be a thing. Better stay friends.”
Vesperia nodded before thinking for a bit. ”Don’t misunderstand. I am sure other Hive Queens would find you a more than a suitable partner; it is just that you are my sire. Having experienced your Records first-hand, I would happily recommend you to other Queens if you are interested?”
”Please don’t,” Jake shut her down.
”Very well,” the Hive Queen did not argue or even ask for an explanation.

But for the hive to not lose these carefully cultivated resources, you naturally need to be able to protect yourself.
