The people of the village had tried to be welcoming and respectful and they didn’t follow us to the house, and by the time we arrived, only a few children and a few neighbors took notice of us. The neighbors were friendly and waved. I smiled and waved back and they greeted the girls as normal.
“Rani, Belle, good evening to you! Who is this? A relative from faraway?”
Rani said, “No, um, yes, well, he’s a traveler, but he’s to be trusted. Aeyli vouches for him. He will stay with us. It will be fine.”
The neighbor said, “Bring your friend to supper. We’ll have a stew.”
Belle said, “Oh, thank you so much! That would be lovely, but, um, I hear that there may be a council meeting tonight. Let us do it tomorrow when we have more free time, or maybe the next night. Very soon. Thank you!”
The girls rushed us into the house and closed the door and both leaned their backs against it and tried to slow their heart rates.
Belle said, “I thought that I was going burst!”
Rani said, “You did burst. All over his chest!”
Belle said, “Oh shut up, you know what I mean. What now?”
Rani said, “You heard Aeyli, we don’t want to make her cross!”
Rani took my hand and the three of us went up the stairs and into one of the bed rooms and again they shut the door and leaned against it as if we had just escaped from ravenous beasts. I knew that the only ravenous beasts nearby were the three of us.
I said, “My princesses, Aeyli was teasing about being cross. We won’t do anything that you don’t want to. I want to love you forever, not for a moment only.”
Chapter 15 In the House of the Shrine Maidens
I started to take the sack of fruit from my shoulders and Belle took it from me and set it aside near the door. I unbuckled my belt and slid it from my waist and Rani rushed to take it from me and hang it on a hook near the door. I looked at the room. The bed wasn’t a stone slab, as it had been in the ruins, but a wooden platform covered with a mattress made from fur and stuffed with moss. It was thick and comfortable; even in a humble house like this, I supposed that you could make the mattresses as thick and soft as you wanted to since the moss was free for the gathering.
I sat on the edge of the bed and said, “Girls, will you trust me? To me, your happiness is more important than my own.”
Rani and Belle came slowly forward and removed their belts and just dropped them on the floor beside themselves and stared into my eyes.
Belle took a deep breath and sighed and said, “Ah, that actually feels really good. I have never been naked before. I mean, not in front of a man. Not after I was a child. My prince, I don’t mean to be afraid.”
I said, “Belle, my princess, I love you already. You are very, very beautiful and I’m proud that you’ve chosen me. I could never have imagined being loved by women as beautiful as you and Rani and Aeyli. I still think that I must be in a dream.”
I meant the words, but I mostly hoped that my manner would put the girl at ease. I was in no hurry to make love; Aeyli had teased about being cross, but I knew that she said it just to make me feel at comfortable if I did find myself in the arms of these two new brides.
Belle blushed and I saw her nipples start to swell. I continued, addressing the other girl, “Rani, do you truly choose me as your mate, as Belle has, and Aeyli? I will be overjoyed if you find me a good mate, but I want you to be happy more than anything else that could possibly be.”
Rani cried out, “My prince, I have devoted my body and myself to you already. My milk is in. There’s no question. You tasted it yourself. Don’t ask me about my desires! It’s only because we don’t know anything except what the older women told us as girls. My body screams for me to let it throw itself into your arms and onto your bed…and my mind screams that it doesn’t know how to do it, nor what I would do when I got there!”
Belle cried out just as fervently, “My prince, Aeyli said that you would instruct us! Tell us what to do. What scares us is that we don’t know. If you tell us, we’ll be happy!”
Rani said, almost in tears again, “Yes, that’s what we feel exactly. My body rushes toward you, and stands paralyzed because it doesn’t know the way to you. Tell us and we will be happy!”
I said, “Come here and hold me for a moment.”
I pulled them forward and sat one on each knee. They instinctively snuggled into my chest and neck. This was so different for me. Nothing like Earth. Nothing like anything that I knew. But it felt so right. Part of my mind balked at what was happening, but every other part was happy to just jump in. Two beautiful naked and adoring women from another planet sitting on my lap waiting for me to teach them the ways of love. It was like some kind of erotic wish-fulfillment fantasy novel. But Rani had it right. I could question it all that I wanted to, but the facts in front of me were that these two, and Aeyli, loved me. We had proof. Their bodies had responded to our bonding emotionally on a deep and permanent level. They wanted me and they had no questions about their choices. My biggest problem was remembering not to fall into the trap that all heroes in my situation did in those adventures that I had read so many time: don’t piss off the girl by offending her by trying to apply my foreign customs to her reality.
If I was in one of those stories, I would avert my eyes from their nakedness and tell them that I wanted to wait until we knew each other better and that we should hold off on any sexual activity until she was more ready for an eternal love. On the other hand, if I were a character in a modern sitcom, I’d just meet them in a bar and run back to their place and have sex and the complications would come later. My literary background, and my experience of my own morality told me to act like a shy hero wimp. I really was kind of a shy hero in this circumstance. A lot like the guy in a harem anime cartoon. Yeah, just like that. I’d watched enough of those. The trick here was to find the right level and avoid the common pitfalls. Basically to take my cues from the girls and let them decide how things progressed. My job was just to let them know that I was happy to be the hero that they wanted me to be and not force my inexperience or insecurity onto their story.
The trick was to do everything differently than every story I knew. Be respectful, let them have what they wanted, don’t offend them with my own customs and alien morality, be true to myself, and plan for the long term. That seemed to be a key. Those fictional heroes never planned for the long term. They didn’t take into account that they were in a different reality than they had imagined. The reluctant anime harem hero never thought through where everything was going and how he’d deal with it 30 years from now. Same with the old adventure novels. They thought that it would end any moment and they’d find themselves back in ‘the real world’ and it would have all been a dream.
I had to think about this as being the way that things were, and this was how they were going to stay. I was here on Barsoom. I had three native girls who wanted me to be their mate. I had enough resources to buy a house and live here forever. I was now a citizen of whatever town this was. These girls were bonded to me for life. I didn’t know what we would actually do, but this was a one way trip and I needed to treat it that way. Aeyli had given me plenty of chances to go back. No way I was doing that. I was here and life was simpler, and I was going to act like the hero they wanted me to be.
I said, “See, you’re right, your bodies do know the way. But, there’s something that I don’t know and you need to help me…honestly.”
Belle began to kiss my cheek and said, “What my love, what do you desire?”
I said, “Belle, my love, Rani, my love, there are two of you. I can’t bear to think about being with one and not the other, but being with both of you together…what will you feel about that?”
See, I could do this. Just ask what they thought. Don’t try to work it all out by myself and make big stupid mistakes. Just be honest about what I knew and what I didn’t know and work it out together. Why didn’t we do things more like that on Earth?
The girls sat back and considered.
Rani said, “Belle, do you see what he means? Mates are taken one at a time. A great man may take three…”
Belle interrupted, “According to Aeyli, three is just a beginning.”
Rani continued, “Right. And with so many, well, with us, we come two together. Other men would go before the council and have one mate added to his house after 40 days and then another a month after that, and so on. Our mighty prince took Aeyli in the wilderness, and now has the two of us at once.”
Belle said, “But Rani, as Mark says, to wait will be unbearable for either of us, and afterward, we’ll share a bed anyway, won’t we? And, we’ll make love all together, won’t we? Of course we will. How could it be any different?”
I said, “Then if you’re happy with it, I will teach you both the ways of mating, the three of us together.”
I wasn’t really looking for a threesome. It didn’t arouse me anymore than being with either of them alone. But the reality did seem to be that making love together was what we would end up doing since there was four of us.
Belle said, “Yes! That’s what we need! We are the last of the shrine maidens and we have a vow to each other. Teach us together.”
Rani said, “But we aren’t shrine maidens anymore. We are princesses at last! Teach us!”
I smiled and kissed each of them as they sat on my lap. What had my life become? These girls were every bit as beautiful as Aeyli. Rani just as tall, but fairer skinned, and Belle, about two inches shorter, but with breasts a bit larger. Both at least as sexually responsive as Aeyli and perhaps even less sexually inhibited.
I smiled now, ready to get started and said, “OK, let’s start by having you show me how the older women taught you in the bawdy rhymes about the first night with your prince.”
I stood up and the girls looked at each other and then Rani climbed onto the bed on her knees, with her rear toward me as Aeyli had done a few nights before. Belle gave a look of recognition and took a similar position next to her.
I said, “Oh my, that is very beautiful. Scoot closer together so that your hips and shoulders touch. Now, faces on the furs, right?”
The girls giggled and complied. I came up to the edge of the bed and stood behind them and placed a hand gently on each fabulous rear end. I began stroking their buttocks, and their backs, softly. I spoke to them as I touched them.
I said quietly, “You are so beautiful. There are no women on the world I came from as beautiful as you. I will make you happy that you chose me. You excite me so much that my body yearns to touch you.”
I let my hands explore the cleft of their cheeks and then down between, to reach into the moist folds of their womanhood. Both girls were already wet with arousal. I took my time and stroked and probed slowly and tenderly. In time, I concentrated on sliding my fingers up and down their slits, touching all the way to their clitoris. The girls squirmed on my hands and moaned, gyrating their hips and pressing into me. I continued rubbing Belle, but moved directly behind Rani and placed my erection between her lower lips and slid back and forth along it.
She increased her moaning and I said, “Rani, you are eldest, you will be first. You know what I must do now?”
She cried out, “Yes!” and she started reciting her rhyme.
“It feels so great!
My awesome prince,
Push hard my love,
Pierce my fence!”
I positioned myself at her opening and pushed forward just until I felt the barrier. Rani went into spasm and tried to push against me. When the moment seemed right, when I guessed that she was beyond caring, I put my arm half around her waist and pushed hard but slowly into her. The barrier gave way and I entered her completely.
At the same time, I pushed my fingers into Belle and she cried out and fell forward onto the bed, unable to hold herself on her knees for the moment. I changed the position of my hand and inserted my thumb into her vagina and used my fingers to stimulate her clit.
Rani was bucking and thrusting at me, taking up a natural rhythm dictated by her body. I let her continue for as long as she wanted, climaxing again and again.
Rani cried, “Oh prince! It’s so good. It fills me so wonderfully. Oh… ah…uh! This will be my life now, never stop! Never…I am yours…” and other similar rantings of love and ecstatic excitement.
Belle lay on her stomach and bounced up and down on my hand as I rubbed her to orgasm with my fingers. She made no intelligible words, but the telepathic sense of what she experienced assaulted my ability to hold off my own climax.
Rani, impaled on my manhood, began to slow, as finally her body began to tire. I took my hand from Belle’s crotch for a moment and grabbed both of Rani’s hips and pushed as hard and far into her as I could and then pumped in and out wildly until she mounted one last massive orgasm.
When It was done, I pulled out and helped her to lie down, and immediately went back to Belle.
I rolled Belle over onto her back and pulled her to the edge of the bed and spread her legs wide. I took hold of them and pulled them to my sides and hooked her knees over my elbows, pushing them toward her shoulders. I looked briefly at the hairless mound of wet pussy flesh now fully exposed between her perfectly shaped legs; I had never seen anything so lovely as she appeared in that moment. I wanted to dive between those legs and lick and kiss the thing until I could go no longer…but that delight would wait. Maybe when Aeyli came back.
My penis lined up with Belle’s tiny passage and I touched the head to the flower she presented. I reached down and pressed it into place and set myself at the door. Belle didn’t react specifically to the touch of it. Her eyes were already rolled back to where I could see the whites of them and her arms lay above her head with her elbows splayed to the sides. My youngest bride was still riding the constant arousal that she had been subjected to as I had taken Rani on her long first adventure into lovemaking.
I pushed my hips forward and down and I felt Belle’s ‘fence’. Then I leaned in and kissed her on the mouth. At that, she did notice me and respond, throwing her arms around my neck and kissing me, using her tongue as she had felt me use mine earlier. She thrust her hips upward, instinctively willing me to take her as a woman.
I said softly, “Belle, my princess, come to me. Open your eyes and look at me. It’s time for your moment of first love. Be here with me in this moment.”
Belle took a breath and calmed herself as much as she could, but small spasms still rocked her occasionally.
She recited in a whisper as she pulled my face close to her lips, “My tunnel wet, You need no luck, Come my prince, I’m prime for shalock.”
I pressed in as she held me tightly. At my entry, Belle arched her back and moaned. It seemed that this act held no pain for Barsoomian women, but only a tightness and filling and warm stretching. They told me later that it was like being squeezed in a very tight, but loving hug that takes away the breath, but from the inside outward.
I began a gentle thrusting and treated my little princess to a slow and gentle love session. At times, her body indicated that it wanted a more vigorous exercise and I matched my movements to her desires. We continued for quite a while and after some time, I felt a hand at my back and saw that Rani now sat on her knees beside us and was gently touching me as I was with Belle.
Without leaving the girl’s warm tunnel, I lifted her and pushed her farther up the bed so that I could join her on top of it. Her legs still wide around my waist, I continued my steady thrusting as she climaxed every few minutes.
I said to Rani, “My love, come up here and lie down beside Belle.”
As she did, I leaned over and took her nearest breast in my mouth and began to kiss and suckle. I slid my hand down between her legs and stroked her tenderly. I tasted Rani’s sweet breast milk in my mouth, and kept up my lovemaking to the two precious beauties.
Not long after we climbed onto the bed and Rani entered a quieter orgasmic state, I heard the doo
r to the room open and I glanced up to see Aeyli standing there. She smiled and her eyes went wide. She simply stood there and watched in amazement. I don’t think that she truly expected to find us all in the middle of passion when she entered. Somehow, it seemed really comfortable. I hadn’t ever done anything like this, or really even ever imagined making love in front of another person, but this felt really natural with these girls.
I said, “Aeyli, welcome back. The girls have been getting me ready. Are you going to just stand there?”
She shook her head slowly but made no move.
I said sweetly, “Then drop your belt you silly girl. Do you want to put your pussy on the furs or not? Do I need to come and show you what to do?”
Aeyli shook herself and squealed in delight and quickly unbuckled her belt and let it fall to the floor and ran to the bed…and then stopped short.
Aeyli asked, “My prince? Um, where should I lay?”
I pulled off of Belle and had she and Rani scoot apart to make room in the center of the bed. They smiled, though both still spasming with aftershocks, and motioned Aeyli into bed between them. Aeyli crawled up with us and lay on her back between the other girls and waited shyly for me to make a move.
I scooted down toward Aeyli’s feet, kneeling, and took hold of her ankles and pushed them wide toward her hips. Then, leaning forward, Aeyli expecting to feel my erection against her vagina, I put my head between her legs and kissed her mound long and hard as if it were a mouth and lips. I buried my face there and her knees involuntarily squeezed the sides of my head as the girl gasped and gave out a cry of delight and surprise. I pushed my tongue deep into her and licked and thrust, swirling around the opening and teasing the folds. I moved up a few inches and took her engorged clitoris between my lips and sucked at it and she put her hand on the back of my head and pressed it down hard onto her crotch.
Aeyli burst forth in a massive orgasm and her juices flooded my face. I continued licking at them and let her experience several more minutes of pleasure. Finally, I lifted my head and said, “Aeyli, I can’t wait any longer; do you want me to feed your pussy or your mouth? Tell me quickly!”
