Chronicles of Eden - Act III

by Alexander Gordon

  “Complicated?” Jacqueline asked as she stood upright again. “I don’t understand. How is this complicated?”

  Triska looked down with concern as the other girls watched her curiously.

  “We all love him.”

  “You all love this boy?” Jovian asked.

  The four girls nodded as Daniel looked around at them with a worried smile. Falla however scoffed and crossed her arms while scowling at the new girls. Triska smiled slightly and glanced to Daniel while she gently brushed her hair back around her ear.

  “Yes, we all do,” she admitted. “It’s no secret between us, or with him, we all love him.”

  “Then does that mean that you love them all too?” Jacqueline asked looking to Daniel. He jumped a bit then looked down with a troubled frown as he fidgeted his hands together in his lap.

  “Well, I’m not… it’s just…” he stuttered, and then glanced around to seeing the four girls watching him with worried eyes. He took a moment to think of what to say then breathed out slowly before smiling at them. “The truth is, I care for them all, very much. They’re all special to me, and I’m lucky they’re here with me today. And, I know how they all feel about me, how they wish for me to choose one of them to be with, but I haven’t figured out if I feel the same way about them as they do with me. I… I don’t know how to choose just yet.”

  Jovian and Jacqueline looked to each other then to Daniel curiously.

  “Oh,” Jovian empathized. “You’re undecided on who to take as your loved one. I see, that’s too bad.”

  “But if they all love him, how is he going to choose who to pick?” Jacqueline questioned. “I don’t know how he’s going to decide on such a thing, there are so many choices in front of him. So many girls in front of his eyes, what’s he to do?”

  The other girls blinked then looked to her with small glares as the blonde girl giggled and swayed her hips around slightly.

  “And what do you mean by that?” Triska questioned.

  “There are only four choices in front of him,” Specca clarified sharply. “In case you are hinting at anything otherwise.”

  Jovian and Jacqueline looked at her with a small jump, both seeming to be taken aback by that, then started laughing and shaking their heads.

  “Wait a moment,” Jovian said holding a hand up. “Are you implying that we’re interested in him like that?”

  “I don’t know, are you?” Alyssa asked carefully.

  “Of course we aren’t, he’s not our type,” Jacqueline laughed with an amused smile.

  “He’s not your type?” Triska asked. “What do you mean by that, what’s wrong with him?”

  Jacqueline giggled and walked over to sit by Daniel, with Jovian walking around and sitting on the other side of the boy. All the girls watched them closely while Daniel looked back and forth between the two sisters as they smiled curiously at him.

  “You seem really sweet, Daniel,” Jovian said while gently tracing her finger around on Daniel’s chest, much to the anger of the other girls. “And you must have done something right to have all these girls falling over each other to get to you.”

  Jacqueline giggled and rested her head on the boy’s shoulder while holding onto his arm gently, also causing more ire in the other girls.

  “Yes,” she said with a saddened smile. “You have so many choices in front of you on who you could be with. But sadly we’re not among them.”

  “Really? Oh, okay then,” Daniel said nervously, thinking that was the only correct answer he could give anyway.

  “Yes, sorry,” Jovian said shaking her head. “But you’re just not at all what I find attractive.”

  “Yeah,” Jacqueline agreed with. “You couldn’t get my blood going if you tried, sorry.”

  “Okay,” Triska spoke up with irritation. “This is starting to sound like you’re saying he’s not good enough, which is kind of insulting.”

  “It is insulting,” Specca huffed with her hands at her hips. “There isn’t another man in all of Eden that could compare to Daniel.”

  “Just what’s wrong with Daniel to you anyway, he’s perfect!” Alyssa shouted out.

  Daniel glanced around at them curiously then looked to Jovian as the girl shook her head slowly.

  “He’s a he,” she said with a shrug.

  The other girls stared at her puzzled as the two sisters giggled and looked around at them with amused smiles.

  “Yeah, you all have a better shot with us than he does, especially you, Triska,” Jacqueline said with a purr at Triska. The other girls then showed startled expressions while Falla raised an eyebrow at the two sisters.

  “What are you talking about? She’s a girl like you two,” Falla pointed out.

  “Really? I think she looks more like a woman to me,” Jovian purred at the teen.

  Triska stared at them with wide eyes then slowly pointed to them.

  “Wait, are you saying… you two… are…”

  Jovian and Jacqueline nodded and stood up together.

  “We don’t care much for men, not our thing,” Jovian said with a shrug.

  “Yeah, we’ve always had a real taste for women,” Jacqueline said with a playful lick of her lips. The other girls looked to each other curiously while Falla showed confusion to that.

  “What?” Falla asked. “What do you mean you don’t like men, how else can you get pregnant?”

  The sisters looked to her with disturbed expressions.

  “We don’t wish to get pregnant, can’t you understand that?” Jovian asked expectedly.

  “Yeah,” Jacqueline snapped. “If a guy ever shoved his dick into me I’d rip it off and shove it down his throat.”

  Daniel looked at them with confusion then with a curious eye as he finally understood what they were getting at.

  “You’re both lesbians.”

  The two sisters giggled and smiled at him.

  “That would be correct,” Jovian agreed.

  “Glad we didn’t have to spell it out for you,” Jacqueline added before looking to Falla with a small scowl. Falla just stared at them with a baffled expression while the other girls looked to the sisters with curiosity.

  “That’s why you were so flattering to us about our looks,” Specca said with a soft blush. “You really thought we looked that way.”

  “Of course,” Jovian agreed. “We would never lie to you, we only spoke the truth about each of you.”

  “You really think I’m the cutest here?” Alyssa asked with an eager smile.

  “You really think I’m… perfect, from head to tail?” Specca asked timidly.

  Squeak merely squeaked something while running her hands down along her breasts and hips.

  Jovian and Jacqueline giggled and nodded as they looked around at them.

  “Yes, we have a real eye for delicious looking girls in this world,” Jovian said arrogantly, with Alyssa, Specca, and Squeak showing curious smiles to that. Jacqueline giggled then noticed Triska was looking down worriedly, the teen wondering if the other monster girls really were more attractive than her.

  “Though, to be honest,” Jacqueline mentioned. “I’d choose Triska over the rest of you, no offense of course.”

  “What? You would? Why?” Triska asked, not knowing if she should feel proud of that or disturbed. Jacqueline nodded and looked her over with a playful smile.

  “I like girls with a bit of kick to them,” she reasoned. “The feistier the better. And you seem like a firecracker to me.”

  Triska showed a slight smile to that then glanced to Daniel, the boy showing an awkward smile himself as he was looking around at the girls.

  “Well… thank you, I think,” Triska said with a small shrug.

  “Jacqueline, watch your wandering eye,” Jovian mentioned with an accusing smile at her sister. “These girls aren’t quite available for you.”

  Jacqueline whined and looked up with a weak smile while hopping around a bit.

  “Aw, c’mon. I’m only loo
king, not touching.”

  Triska and the other girls laughed while Falla just continued to watch the sisters with confusion and annoyance.

  “What the hell is wrong with you two?” Falla scoffed. “You’re supposed to be looking for guys to fuck, not girls to cuddle with.”

  The group looked to her with dull expressions while the sisters held back their grunts of discontent.

  “Falla, just leave them alone,” Daniel scolded. “If they wish to seek the company of women over men then that’s their choice.”

  “Yes,” Specca sharply insisted. “Not all humans want to find a mate of the opposite sex. There are some that prefer their own gender rather than the other.”

  “Back off, Falla,” Triska snapped. “If they want to be with another woman rather than a man that’s their choice in life, so bud out.”

  Jacqueline walked over to her sister as Jovian scoffed at the butterfly girl, the blonde sister then holding Jovian close and whispering into her ear.

  “Can we eat that one tonight? I don’t like her,” she asked quietly.

  Jovian slowly shook her head as the two sisters looked at Falla from behind their masks.

  “No,” she answered quietly. “She’ll scream alongside her sister when we find her, it’ll bring them each more misery and pain.”

  Alyssa looked at Falla with annoyance then to Jovian and Jacqueline curiously.

  “So, you two have been traveling the world, meeting different people and even monsters, all simply because you want to?”

  “That’s correct,” Jovian answered.

  “So you’re not afraid of monsters?”

  “I don’t fear you,” Jovian replied. “Or your friends, if that’s what you’re talking about.”

  “Yeah, you’re not bad at all,” Jacqueline agreed.

  “We don’t make you feel uneasy, even a little bit?” Specca asked.

  “Nope,” the sisters replied together.

  Daniel smiled with relief at the two girls and nodded slightly.

  “So, there are others that don’t see monsters as ultimate evils in this world.”

  Jovian looked to him with a solemn gaze and shook her head.

  “Well, we know some can be friendly, and others pay girls such as ourselves no mind since we cannot give them what they want, however there are very bad monsters out there, we’re not blind to that.”

  “Like the ones that killed all those poor lycans,” Jacqueline mentioned. “Those things were just terrible.”

  Jovian slowly walked over and sat back down on her seat while Jacqueline followed, the two sitting together and holding hands while staying very close to one another.

  “The truth is there are more evil ones than good ones,” Jovian explained with remorse. “This is just how the world is, I’m sorry to say.”

  “You wish to bring humans and monsters together peacefully,” Jacqueline said before shaking her head. “But I don’t think that will be a possibility. Monsters, good ones and bad, will always be monsters, their nature cannot be changed.”

  “That’s not true,” Daniel reasoned. “Monsters can fight their inner nature. They can control themselves around us. Look at our friends here, they’re not doing anything bad at all with me, they’re trying to help me even.”

  Triska nodded then pointed to Falla.

  “She’s not an example of that however, just ignore her,” she mentioned, with Falla glancing to her with a grunt then back down to the fire. Jovian shook her head and looked to Triska with a worried smile.

  “You wish to have his love, but what happens should you gain it?” she questioned. “Will these monsters just accept that and back down? Or will they pursue him still, maybe even steal him away from you if need be?”

  Triska showed a bit of surprise to that then looked around at the other girls with concern.

  “What happens when one of you wins this boy’s heart?” Jacqueline asked. “Will the losers just give up and leave, or will they stay and fight for what they desire?”

  All of the girls glanced to each other then to Daniel, the boy trying to think of what to say about that. Silence fell upon the group as the fire crackled and wavered slightly.

  “I think we should stop this conversation for now,” Specca said softly.

  “Yeah, I don’t want to talk about this anymore,” Triska said shaking her head.

  “Me either,” Alyssa added, with Squeak nodding in agreement.

  Daniel nodded and glanced around at all the girls, seeing them looking down at the fire with troubled frowns. After a while of uncomfortable silence he smiled a bit and stood up.

  “Well, it’s getting late, we should probably get ready to turn in for the night,” he proposed.

  Squeak looked to him with a bright smile upon hearing that and squeaked eagerly. The sisters looked to her curiously as the other girls glanced away as they knew what that meant.

  “Turn? Turn for what?” Jovian asked.

  “Tonight is her turn to sleep with Daniel,” Triska explained softly.

  The sisters looked at Squeak curiously then to Daniel as he nodded to that.

  “Her turn to sleep with you?” Jovian asked with a sly smile. “Oh my, so you are engaging in lecherous activities with all of these girls.”

  “Daniel, you naughty boy you,” Jacqueline purred.

  Daniel jumped a bit then waved his hands in front of him with a nervous smile.

  “No, it’s not what you think, it’s… um…”

  “Complicated?” Jovian said knowingly.

  “It always is with you people,” Jacqueline giggled.

  “No, well, yeah, I mean… I can explain,” Daniel said with a weak smile.

  The sisters giggled and shook their heads in unison.

  “Daniel, you don’t have to explain anything, we’re not judging you,” Jovian said with a wave of the hand.

  “Yeah, whatever you do is up to you,” Jacqueline assured with a shrug. “If you want to travel around with monsters and have casual lovemaking sessions with them, then that’s your choice.”

  Daniel froze and just stared at them with a stunned smile while the other girls jumped a bit from hearing that.

  “What?” Daniel squeaked out.

  “Hey, it’s not like that,” Triska argued. “She’s not having sex with him tonight.”

  Squeak looked to her with a raised eyebrow and squeaked something, with the other girls turning to her with dull expressions while the sisters showed curious smiles.

  “Oh?” Jovian replied playfully. “Because she said that’s up to Daniel, not you.”

  “So he chooses which girl to have each night?” Jovian mused with a hand to her chin. “I suppose that is one way of satisfying everyone.”

  Daniel jumped a bit then quickly shook his head while shutting his eyes.

  “That’s not what this is about!” he pleaded. “This is just so we can get to know each other better, that’s all!”

  “To know each other better?” Jovian and Jacqueline asked together.

  “Yes,” Daniel insisted. “That’s why we’re doing this. I spend the night with them one at a time so we can talk and get to know each other more, or do whatever we like while having privacy. I know they all love me, but I’m not sure if I feel that way about them in return, so doing this will let me get a sense of how I really feel about each of them.”

  “Oh, I see, like a date night,” Jovian said curiously.

  “Yes, exactly, like a date night,” Daniel quickly agreed.

  Jacqueline nodded then smiled slyly at the boy.

  “Date nights can include sex too though, can’t they?” she asked with a giggle.

  Daniel hesitated then nodded with a weak smile.

  “Well, yes, they can. But that’s not the reason why we’re doing this.”

  Jovian and Jacqueline nodded then looked to Squeak with curious smiles.

  “Well then,” Jovian said with a tilt of her head. “That sounds like fun for you, having him all to yourse
lf for the night.”

  “Yeah, have fun, good luck seducing him,” Jacqueline encouraged before the sisters giggled together.

  Squeak smiled a bit to that while the other girls rolled their eyes, all of them not looking forward to having to play the waiting game through her turn that night. Falla smirked then stood up while holding her hands at her hips.

  “Alright then, shall we head inside?” The group looked to her as she smiled innocently at Squeak. “I’m ready whenever you are.”

  “She’s a part of this as well?” Jovian asked dryly.

  “And during Squeak’s turn?” Jacqueline questioned.

  Falla laughed then walked over and stood beside Squeak, the ant girl glancing to her with a dull expression as the butterfly rested a hand on her shoulder and shook her lightly.

  “I’m merely helping her out with her turn tonight,” she explained. “I’m going to be their translator. After all I can understand her and allow her to speak to Daniel about whatever it is she wants to talk about.”

  “You are?” the sisters asked.

  “Yes I am,” Falla said before looking to Daniel with a coy smile. “And in return for being such a big help, she’s allowing me to sleep next to Daniel as well. I’m so glad too, I’ll sleep so well knowing he’s next to me all night. I’ll feel so safe.”

  Daniel held back his groan while trying not to frown at the girl as Squeak slowly nodded in agreement.

  “Excuse me,” Specca said, quickly raising her hand. The group looked to her as she smiled nervously at Squeak. “Squeak, may I make one tiny suggestion to you? Perhaps, if we ask nicely, Jovian and Jacqueline would be so kind as to be your translators tonight during your turn.”

  Squeak looked at her curiously while Falla raised an eyebrow at the nixie.

  “What are you talking about? We had a deal, remember?” Falla reminded.

  Specca showed an uneasy smile at her from that then looked at Squeak again.

  “I’m just saying,” she urgently explained. “They wouldn’t have to hold your head next to theirs to translate for you, they’re much more pleasant to talk to, and last and most importantly, something I cannot stress enough, they have absolutely no desire to have sex with Daniel at all.”

  Squeak looked at her for a moment then to the sisters as they smiled amusedly at them. Alyssa and Triska looked to each other then to the new girls with eager nods.
