On Astral Tides: From Humble Freelancer To Astral Emperor

“Wow, you look exhausted, Shaeula. Are you all right?” My sis asked, eyeing Shaeula with concern. To be honest I was a little worried as well. She was pale-skinned, more than usual, with dark rings around her eyes, and her hair was lank and tangled. Still, even in such a state she had assisted the trainees with her usual poise, and the newcomers who had charged enough aether in their newly-perfected networks were wowed by the Territory, enjoying the sights, served fruits and wine by Hyacinth and Asha, enjoying a moment of wonder, before being dragged off to their own tailored training regimens.

Still, now that the last of the trainees were either returning home, or staying in their rooms on the upper floors, it was time to finish up, the faint glow of the Tokyo lights in the distance colouring the darkness outside. I was with Aiko, Eri, Shaeula and Hyacinth, taking a break, and my sis was the first to speak, as tactless as usual.

“I am fine-fine.” She assured Aiko, a grin on her face, though it looked a little forced. “I am happy, truly. I have reunited with my father, and even my sister. My other brothers have been told, though they can not-not return yet, as their tasks keep them distant, on our borders. Even so…” she paused, thinking, tired eyes moist with unshed tears. “… it is good-good to be home. Though without Akio, it is not-not a true home.” Her grin turned more natural then. “It is simply I have many-many demands on my time, much to decide, and the meeting with Duke Formor… I worry.”

“Understandable.” I pulled her into a hug. Hyacinth cackled at the sight, and Eri shook her head, smiling. “You worry about your maids. Both of them, despite everything. And you need support for our plans. But don’t worry. I know I’m busy, but if you really need me, send Azuki. I’ll drop everything.”

“Smooth move, bro.” my sis said, smiling. “It’s quite educational watching you work. Ouch, I told you to stop hitting me Eri, you’ve turned violent since you asserted your dominance as first wife! Bet you didn’t see polygamy coming though… ouch, quit it!”

“I will when you stop being silly, Aiko.” Eri said, using her superior strength to bully my sister playfully. It had the desired effect, as Shaeula began to laugh, a weak snicker at first, before it turned into full-throated giggles, then peals of hearty laughter.

“Oh, how I needed that, Eri, Aiko.” She grinned when she was finished. “It is good to remember I am not-not alone.”

“Looks like you’re up, bro. Shaeula needs pampering.” My sis said, rubbing surreptitiously at her arm and back when she thought we weren’t watching.

“All this talk of marriage makes me rather hot…” Shaeula pulled at the cloth of her yukata, fanning herself, making sure to give me a tantalising glimpse at her small chest within. I could see her nipples were already hard, like tiny cherry-coloured mocha. “… it has been quite a while since I made love. Akio, before I go into battle, politically speaking, with my enemies, I would have you inside me.” She patted her stomach. “If I am full of your warmth, it will be like-like you are there with me.”

“All right then. I’m ducking out. I’ve seen my bro fucking enough…” she said crudely. “Thinking of it, I doubt many sisters can say that. Damn.” She tossed her head, dark pigtails bouncing. “Well, I’m off then. I promised to show mom and dad around Tokyo. It’s late, but if we aren’t going to school tomorrow due to this mission, there’s still plenty to see and do.”

“I’ll come too.” Eri said, and Shaeula shrugged. “You can-can remain, Eri. I do not-not mind sharing with you. We have before, many times.”

“I know.” Eri flushed at the memories, a mixture of shame and arousal colouring her. “But, well, I think you need this. And as first wife, I have to be fair, right? Besides, I’ll go with my parents and Aiko’s. Between the two of us, they’ll be safe.”

Hearing that from timid Eri is quite a shock. That she’d defend our family from muggers or whatever. I guess she’s not that timid girl always hiding behind me and Aiko anymore. I feel quite proud of her. Amongst other feelings. “All right then. You have money, right? Might as well treat them. What’s the plan?”

“Well, your secretary, she booked us tickets to a show and a table at a fancy restaurant…”

********

“I shooould be going too, Akio, mistress.” Hyacinth said, after Eri and Aiko left. “Call me if yooou need anything.”

“No, I do not-not see the need for that.” Shaeula continued to smile, taking her arm. “I know you gave yourself to Akio, that is good, but I hear you calling Eri mistress Eri, you seem to have grown closer. That is also good-good. But do call me mistress Shaeula then.”

“Hyacinth can nooot do that!” she was aghast. “You are a princess of the Seelie, it wooould be disrespectful…”

“I am Akio’s bride before I am a princess.” She sniffed, irritated. “Do not-not ruin my good humour. I am his female, the same-same as you. But I think I understand. You shared intimacy with Eri, and are thus close to her. Well, that-that is easily solved.” She tightened her grip on Hyacinth’s arm. “You have not-not enjoyed love in the Material, have you?” she looked at Hyacinth, whose massive chest was straining against the fabric of her cosplay-style maid outfit that she wore here. “Well, Akio will not-not be satisfied with just me, and I would be closer with you. After all, did you not-not help me with my dream?”

“But, mistress, Hyacinth can nooot…” she began, but I silenced her with a kiss, my tongue twirling with hers. Her skin flushed, and when I pulled free she was silent. Moving to the impatient Shaeula, who was already panting, her cherry lips opened wide, I thrust in my tongue, and we greedily sucked at each other. When we were done, Shaeula smirked.

“So, Hyacinth tastes like that, does she? Curious.”

“Mistress, sooo embarrassing.” Hyacinth whined, but she was aroused as well, remembering our last lovemaking.

“Mistress Shaeula.” She corrected. “Now come.” She guided Hyacinth up to our room on the top floor, and when we were there, Shaeula led us to the bed.

“Now, Hyacinth, could you help me? Akio is eager for me, I can tell. Please help me out-out of my yukata.”

I see. She’s including Hyacinth. Clever. She wasn’t wrong though, I was eager to have Shaeula, to help relieve her stress, and also because she was sexy and adorable.

“I can dooo that.” Hyacinth agreed, slowly pulling free the sash, allowing the yukata to fall fully open, revealing Shaeula’s slender body, her small yet beautiful breasts, and her dripping slit, shrouded with a thin thicket of amber hair.

“I am quite-quite wet already.” Shaeula grinned, one small hand opening up her pussy for us both to see, thin trickles of sour love nectar staining her inner thighs. “I have been craving you, Akio. For comfort and passion.” She looked at Hyacinth then. “Do you seek him too? Be honest. And show us. Stand beside me, let-let Akio compare us.”

Well, that’s kind of sexual harassment as an order, but looking at the way Hyacinth is squirming, she likes it anyway, and though the concept is a bit foreign to her, she has agreed to be a mistress. “You have some lewd ideas, Shaeula…” I muttered, getting a bright grin in return, as Hyacinth pulled up the short skirt of her dress, revealing the cute panties she wore in the Material. They were white with little purple ribbons to match her eyes, but they were also side-tied, which was erotic. With one trembling hand, she untied the left side, and the panties fell away, revealing her own pussy, which was indeed soaked.

“Take a look, Akiooo. Hyacinth has nothing to hide from you!” She declared, standing beside Shaeula. Seeing the pair of them like that, both Fae, yet so different in build and personality, I felt I was the luckiest man alive. If Eri was here too, it’d be perfect. A treacherous part of my mind remembered when Hinata and I had washed each other in my bathtub, as well as the beautiful figures of Motoko and Natsumi as they finished training, their hakama sticking to their flushed, damp skin, turning sheer, but I pushed that down. No, not until marriage for those three. It’s what they expect and their families want. I can wait, I’m not a beast. It was certainly regretful though.

“Well, let’s see.” I leaned in close, sniffing them, noticing the subtly different odours. Then, as they coloured in shame and arousal, I started to lick at Shaeula, gently, probing, up and down her loosely opened pussy, tasting her love nectars, using it to polish the ruby bean of her clitoris. While I was doing that I used my hand to stroke Hyacinth gently, and her body was so eager for it my finger kept sliding inside her, even without trying.

“Yes, that-that is quite wonderful.” Shaeula grabbed my head with her thin arms, keeping me close, so I intensified my tongue, licking deeper, more fiercely caressing her clit. Soaking, sodden noises could be heard as she was gushing forth, and her deep, sexy pants and moans turned me on. My hand worked, stimulating Hyacinth too, and with a final surge I brought Shaeula to ecstasy, her orgasm shaking her whole body, filling my mouth with the sour taste of her joy. As she fell down on the bed, looking up at me with eyes now moist with tears of relief and happiness, she let her legs gape open, giving me a good view of her defenceless body. Still, it wasn’t time yet.

Hyacinth was close, my finger rubbing at her own clit, which was larger than Shaeula’s, and perhaps even more sensitive, had left her a shivering, drooling mess. Seeing that was cute, so I kissed her again, sucking at her spit, tasting a hint of herbs and grass. Her eyes cleared a little, and she realised she was kissing me. She returned the favour, her tongue squirming around mine ferociously, and after several fierce kisses, I sild down, pulling her breasts free from their cloth prison, licking and sucking at the nipples, groping her mounds that were noticeably bigger than last time I made love to her, conscious of Shaeula’s eyes on me. That’s only making me more aroused. Shit, it’s a feeling no ordinary guy gets, unless he’s a cheating bastard. Well, I’m a cheater, but I promised Eri I’d own it. Shaeula doesn’t mind, so…

Still playing with her chest, I stripped her down, pulling her maid clothing off. My tongue then slid down her body, played with her belly button, making her giggle, and then reached her clit. I sucked at it, the sensations causing her to shake restlessly, seeping clear fluids from her pussy as though she was a leaking tap.

“Hyacinth… is goooing crazy. Akioooo, I feel it coming again! I am serving, I am!”

“No…” I muttered. “You are loving. It’s different. Better.” I said, my assault on her pussy and clit with my tongue intensifying once more, one hand sliding from her breasts to her ass, feeling her soft flesh, squeezing and kneading it.

“I… Akiooo!” she cried, orgasming, howling loudly. As she shuddered in release I continued to press her, wracking her body with more and more small orgasms, each time accompanied by a loud shout and a squirt of sour liquid. Finally, I let her too fall to the bed, where she lay next to Shaeula, her chest heaving as she took in deep breaths, her body smelling of sweat and sex.

Shaeula extended a hand to her, grasping Hyacinth’s larger one. As their eyes met, Shaeula smiled softly. “So, did you not-not enjoy that? Are we not-not close, intimate? Akio loves us both, and we love him. Are we not-not sisters?”

Hyacinth nodded slowly, still exhausted from the orgasm. “Yes. I see. Hyacinth understands, mistress Shaeula. Though in public yooou are still the mistress, I will nooot budge on that. I serve, it makes Hyacinth happy to dooo so, it is my purpose.”

“Fine. I am not-not one to tell you how to live your life. Akio would have you do what makes you happy. And speaking of…” She looked at me, eyes inviting. “How-how long are you going to watch us with warm eyes? My legs are open, are they not-not? I am craving a connection. My body burns for it.”

She was indeed ready, it seemed, her body pink and sweating, her pussy twitching restlessly. With a grin I pulled down my pants, my erect dick hard and pulsing along with my heartbeat. On seeing that, Hyacinth was gazing at it, while Shaeula licked her lips seductively, small pink tongue alluring. I bent over and kissed her, licking her now-moist lips, while I pressed my dick to her cunt, sliding it slowly in as she gasped, feeling the walls of flesh opening up, still wrapping me tightly, just like the first time we fucked.

“Oh yes, this… this is what I need-need. My head goes blank, and I do not-not worry about the Spring, or my father, or sister, or that vile Duke Formor… only you.”

She cried out as I slammed our bodies together, my enlarged penis buried to the hilt into her seeping honeypot. I was still amazed I could fit in, Shaeula was so doll-like and seemingly fragile. We kissed some more and I fondled her breasts, the watching Hyacinth looking on with rapt interest, her naked body shown to me defencelessly.

“My sister would be quite-quite horrified to see me like this.” Shaeula giggled, biting my lips playfully as we lay tangled together, not moving yet, enjoying the moment. “She still thinks of me as a child, even-even now. Besides, sister cares nothing for males, she never-never has. She is so innocent. I wonder what it would be like if she were to come across us…” she laughed. “… well, fun-fun though that would be, alas I have no time for pranks. For now… Akio, I wish it hard, make me forget my worries, locked in your embrace!”

“Your wish is my command.” I kissed her lips, this time a fleeing, gentle brush of compassion, before I stated to move, sliding backwards then forwards, my dick pistoning. I groped her chest, pulling and sucking on her nipples, squeezed her ass, stroked her slender thighs and arms, even bit and sucked on her ears, as I probed her body, finding her sensitive spots, her moans and shudders of pleasure the only guide I needed, adjusting the angle to give her maximum pleasure. And myself too. It would be a lie to say I wasn’t thrilled, flushed with joy and desire. Her walls wriggled around me, her pussy gripping me relentlessly, and I could feel a heavy weight in my stomach, the feeling of my orgasm rising, which just pushed me to speed up, Shaeula matching the timing of my thrusts with a matching gasp.

“Akio, I feel lighter, my worries, they are fading-fading away, as… as am I!” She giggled, arms circling around my back, pulling me close. “Do it. Fill me up!” She cried, her back arching, her whole body giving in to her orgasm, nails scraping across my back, hers sharp and strong enough to break my skin, even if the wounds healed rapidly. Still, pleasure, pain… both were drowned out and washed together as my dick spasmed, a hot jet of semen gushing out from me, soaking Shaeula’s insides, her womb gulping greedily as it was showered in my cum.

“So warm. Yes, Eri is quite-quite right.” Shaeula gasped, coming down from her own climax as I continued with mine, as if it was never going to stop. Trickles of cum squirted from her stuffed pussy, staining the sheets, and as my flow finally tailed off, leaving me warm, spent and fulfilled, slumped down beside her, she finished her words. “It is the warmth of you that is surely-surely the best part. Now, kiss me, please? Remind me I am not-not alone?”

My only answer was a long, slow kiss, unlike the frantic tangling of tongues of before, this time we merely probed each other slowly, enjoying the taste and feel of each other. When we finally pulled apart, Shaeula’s eyes were shining again, her worries banished.

“See, Hyacinth.” She lectured the fascinated Grey Fae, who was gazing at us with her eyes wide open. “When you feel sorrow, or are lonely, when you worry, there is but-but one thing to do. Ask Akio to prove to you that you are loved. Your cares will be blown-blown away.”

“But Akio is the master. It is nooot right to push my own wishes upon him.” She denied that. “I must dooo…”

“Wrong.” Shaeula shook her head, shifting restlessly, as my dick was still inside her full pussy, and each movement sent shudders through us both. “You serve your master by doing exactly that. For it is what he would wish for, no?”

I nodded, and Shaeula continued. “Besides, you can serve through sex. It is quite-quite profound.” Shaeula grinned. “Akio, you are not-not satisfied, right? I know I am not-not. But this time, I shall lead.” She squirmed around on top of me, my dick rapidly growing rock-hard again. She wheezed from the sensations, but when she was sitting on top of me, looking down at me, she spoke to Hyacinth once more.

“See? In this position, you can make Akio feel pleasure, move yourself. It is perfect for one who wishes to serve, is it not-not? Watch closely, I shall teach you.”

As Hyacinth watched in rapt fascination, Shaeula began to move, sliding up and down my shaft, each descent forcing out splatters of love nectar and cum from her pussy, which was rubbing me, the feeling very different to usual. My hands reached out, grabbing her breasts, toying with them, and Shaeula shifted position, sliding up and down so my dick was ramming into her sensitive spots, wringing gasps of lewd pleasure from her.

“See-see?” she said in-between loud moans. “Look at… his face. He loves this, does-does Akio. And so do I.” she continued, changing angles once more, tightening her ass which squeezed her pussy tightly, nearly forcing me to cum again right there and then, but as Shaeula was struggling so earnestly, I held back through sheer willpower. “… you can use-use his penis to find… your own… pleasures, while making Akio… happy.” She grinned, sliding down deeply, our torsos touching, before she slid upwards again. I let out a groan I couldn’t hold, and she bent down, biting my lip as we kissed.

“Adorable. This-this is… good.” She cried.

“So where did you… learn this?” I asked, and she chortled.

“Jealous? Worried I am toying with… ahn, another male?” Her groans were turning into pants of pleasure, and I could tell we were both close again. “No, I would not-not. No, Eri told me of this.”

I must have looked confused, as Shaeula chuckled, even as she slid up and down my cock, her pussy caressing me like a gentle hand. “No, Eri would cheat no-no more than I would, fool. Ahn, ahn, so… so good.” She giggled as my hands tightened on her chest, flicking her cherry nipples gently, their hard tips sensitive. “I believe she tried-tried to buy some books, ahn, oh yes, ahn, faster…” she sped up, driving us both towards the finish, the damp, slapping noises coming faster and faster, our moans and gasps of pleasure too. “It did not-not, ahn, oh, ahn… go well, but she did learn a few… things. Aiko told me… the story was… rather… amusing… oh, the wave comes again, ahn, ahn, ugh, AHN!” Shaeula slammed down on me with a final gasp, orgasming hard, my stomach and thighs drenched with her nectar and my spent cum. I was so close myself, my balls burning with the need to release, my penis like an iron spear, so I thrust up into her.

“Wait, I am… still sensitive…” Shaeula slurred, but she still made an effort to move. A handful of thrusts into her melted, gloopy insides later, and I cried out in ecstasy myself, as a second orgasm sent my cum pouring into her once more, like pissing warm metal, the sensation indescribable. Shaeula buried her head on my shoulder, eyes squeezed shut as she felt the pleasure, and soon she was overflowing, the sheets under us a gooey mess.

“I hope you feel better now.” I said, after we had calmed down, patting her head, gently stroking her hair. “I know I do. I guess I’ve been stressed too. Meeting the Prime Minster, tense negotiations… I’m doing my best, but it’s hard sometimes. I may be stronger now, have powers, but I’m just an average guy mentally, in terms of experience.”

“It is hard indeed.” Shaeula agreed. “Still, yes. I now feel more able to face the Duke. I shall-shall get my maids back, and his support. And then Duke Vulpatrius alone will struggle to oppose me.”

“Mistress Shaeula and Akiooo have forgotten about poor Hyacinth.” She muttered, and I remembered she was there, watching, naked and drenched with arousal.

“Of course I have not-not.” Shaeula shook her head. “It is just rather rude to not-not give Akio your full attention while making love. Now… did you watch-watch closely?”

Hyacinth nodded. “Ooof course I did. It looked very servile. Hyacinth thinks I should dooo that when master wishes me to warm his bed!”

“Well, why not-not give it a try? I believe you have not-not made love here in the Material world, have you?”

Hyacinth shook her head, dark hair streaked with colours cascading over her bare body. “Nooo, only with mistress Eri under the tree.” She giggled at the memory.

“Then… I shall aid you.” Shaeula let out a sigh of loss as she pulled off me, my dick popping out her pussy, accompanied by more dripping cum. She made sure to bend over, giving me a view of her soaked cunt and twitching asshole, and I couldn’t help but grope her ass. She giggled, but squirmed away.

“It is Hyacinth’s turn. She was waiting quite-quite enough.” Shaeula said, chastising me teasingly.

“Yeah, but you looked too cute and sexy, I couldn’t help it.” I grinned. “Still…” I turned to Hyacinth. “The most beautiful maid in the world is alluring too. If you were a magical girl, you’d be Magical Maid Genocider Hyacinth.”

She cocked her head at that, not used to such references, but Shaeula, who loved magical girl anime, laughed. “That she would indeed. Now, up on him like this-this… you look wet enough.”

She guided Hyacinth to sit on top of me, and she placed her hand on my dick, guiding her to place it inside her. Hyacinth shivered as my penis started spreading her mortal pussy open, my sensitive tip sliding inside her, still soaked with my ejaculation and Shaeula’s fluids.

“Now, take it all in. If it is your first-first time in this body, I hope it does not-not hurt you.”

“I think it’s fine.“ I said, as Hyacinth slid down, forcing my dick in without any resistance. Her body felt different to Shaeula’s or Eri’s, and while it wasn’t as tight as Shaeula, her insides were wriggling like an octopus, tickling and caressing me.

“It is in me.” Hyacinth giggled, touching the point of our connection. “If yooou say I should be greedy, then Akio, can Hyacinth kiss you? I feel liked when yooou do that.”

My answer was our lips locking, and again, unlike our passionate kisses of before, this one was gentle, our tongues slowly exploring each other, licking tongue, teeth, cheeks and more. When we parted, she was crying, her violet eyes full of happy tears.

“Hyacinth feels hot deep inside. Here.” She touched her crotch again. “But alsooo here, most of all.” She put her other hand over her heart. “I think… the box. That was ooonly a dream. This is real, is it nooot?”

My answer was another soft kiss, my hand also over her heart, playing with her breast, the nipple squeezed between my fingers.

“Learn well.” Shaeula declared. “You need to use your whole body here. Move up-up and down, stimulate him, while finding where you feel pleasure too.” Shaeula coached her, whispering in her ear, and Hyacinth began to move, mimicking Shaeula from before.

“Yes, Hyacinth feels good, feels sooo warm!” She cried, her body producing copious amounts of fragrant nectar to lubricate my dick as she slid up and down the shaft. “I looove this. It feels the proper way to serve!” She giggled, twisting her body in a different way to Shaeula. Shaeula had focussed more on the angle, but Hyacinth was spinning, changing her whole axis, as well as rubbing my dick in spots it had never been touched before. I let out a gentle moan, and Shaeula patted Hyacinth on the back.

“Good work, you are indeed a quick-quick study. His face looks so pleased.” Shaeula bent down to lick my sweaty cheeks, and Hyacinth, still squirming like an eel, was sticking her tongue in my mouth, even as her bottom moved up and down, my penis being caressed erotically.

“Greedy. I can see I shall have to be quite-quite wary of you.” Shaeula teased her. Hyacinth was about to protest, before pouting, realising it was a joke.

“Mistress Shaeula is a bully. Hyacinth loooves all the mistresses. They are all nice, all accepted Hyacinth. I can wait for my turn.”

“I know. Do not-not pout, or Akio will be sad.” She slapped Hyacinth gently on her bare back. “Now, are you feeling it too? Else Akio will be angry.”

“Here, I do.” She shifted, my dick sliding against her inner walls, hitting the entrance to her womb. She shuddered, her body reacting, and I realised Hyacinth was incredibly sensitive inside.

“Then race to the finish. Akio looks like he wishes to cum-cum.”

Hearing Shaeula say cum and seeing her lascivious face, while the shuddering, drooling and yelping Hyacinth was giving me cowgirl sex (I knew of the term from lewd doujins of course, but who would have thought Eri was looking for dirty books so she could learn more moves to please me. That was probably the biggest shock I’d had all year!) was impossibly lewd, impossibly exciting, and even though I had filled Shaeula with two huge ejaculations, I felt a third coming. Hyacinth was moving like a corkscrew, hammering my penis into her deepest areas again and again, and each time I hit her there she yelped louder, her whole body convulsing.

“Hyacinth, I’m going to blow soon, I can barely hold it…”

“Akio should go when he pleases. I am serving, my pleasure can…” I cut her off with a hug, pulling her close. The sudden warmth and pressure caused her to move faster, my penis somehow boring deeper into her with each thrust, and I let out my load, cum pouring from me for a third time. Even as I pumped it out I made sure to thrust, feeling Hyacinth melting in my arms, and an ear-splitting cry rang out as she started her own orgasm. Despite my own orgasm, I made sure to probe her sensitive spots with my weakening dick, prolonging her pleasure, before we slumped down together, the sheets further despoiled.

Shaeula lay on my other side, and I was sweaty, covered in cum and nectar, but surely satisfied. As Shaeula used my arm as a pillow, she peered at Hyacinth, her head on my chest, eyes unfocused, drool spilling from her open mouth.

“So, was it fun?” Shaeula asked, and Hyacinth managed to nod weakly. “Hyacinth felt very loved. I am loooved. Thank yooou for sharing with me, mistress Shaeula. And thank you, Akio, for accepting me, giving me a name, a home. A purpose. For nooot throwing me away because I was a bad, dirty girl.”

“Of course. Hyacinth is Hyacinth. That bad girl was never dirty, but even if she was, she was someone else, not Hyacinth. All right?” I said, and she nodded, relieved, while Shaeula snorted.

“Sharing? Of course we must-must share. I shall be away at the Seelie Court, as will you be, attending me. We need our fill before we go. It is a shame Eri can not-not have him to herself for a while, as she will have returned home, but… we have a long, long road ahead of us. Love must be worked at, and together we can make sure we polish each other, are jealous of each other, wish to be better. The rules. Eri is quite-quite the stubborn girl, but not-not entirely wrong.”

The rules? I’ve heard Eri mention them before, but the girls won’t tell me. Oh well, I can leave them some secrets I guess…

“Hyacinth understands. But now…” she looked horrified all of a sudden. “The sheets, the bed. Akio. All is dirty! Nooo, I must clean them, this is no gooooood!”

“Wait a minute.” Shaeula said, reaching out to hold her down. “Yes, the sheets are dirty. So before we wash them…” she licked her lips again, looking at me hungrily. “Why not use them? We do not-not need to worry about further mess then, and I still feel a little stressed. Duke Formor is a pain, after all..”

Great, looks like they are going to wring me dry. Oh well… It was a fate any man would envy. With a grin, I scooped them both up in my arms, and we kissed, revelling in the moment of peace and quiet…
