“Thank you, Joe.” A faint smile flickered across the blonde’s usually stoic face. “That’s nice of you to say. These kinds of things are hard for me, and to suddenly hear what was expected of me was a little… shocking. It’s not that I’m too innocent, it’s just… ”
She trailed off like she didn’t know how to finish the sentence, and her porcelain brow furrowed as silence fell between us.
“Soooo, what is your deal, Cienna?” I asked after a long moment, and I rested my chin on my fist as I looked up at her. I hadn’t had much to eat recently, and it was possible I’d started to get a little buzzed.
“Well… did Jessamine tell you I was married before?” she asked and lowered her eyes.
“She might have mentioned that,” I responded, and I tried to keep a neutral face. “I know she was, as well.”
“Yes, from what I have heard, Jessamine’s husband was a very honorable man,” the beautiful blonde informed me. “He was very highly regarded, and he died in a high-pressure battle situation while saving several of his men. My husband died in a war as well… ”
“Oh?” I asked, but she went on as if she hadn’t heard me.
“I got married to a prince,” Cienna sighed. “My family--oh, my family was awful, but that’s another story. Before I met my husband, though, all anyone could talk about was how charming he was. Literally, that’s what they said to me: ‘Oh, Cienna, he’s the most charming man.’ And I met him, and I was charmed, too… for a while.”
“What happened?” I asked as I leaned forward a little. I didn’t want to pry, but I was completely intrigued by Cienna’s story.
“Well, Joe, it turned out he was charming his way around town, if you know what I mean,” she snorted, and I did know what she meant. “I told you he died in a war, but he didn’t exactly die in battle. He was fucking a peasant woman when her house was attacked, and it went up in flames.”
“Oh, shit,” I muttered. “Cienna, I’m so sorry.”
Though, if her husband was stupid enough to cheat on her, I wasn’t exactly sorry he got what was coming to him.
“No, no,” the princess replied and waved her hand dismissively. “Like I said, it was a while ago, and I was pretty much over him by that point in time. But still, it was embarrassing, and I guess, really, pretty sad.”
“Yeah, I get it,” I responded, and I put my hand within reach of hers on the table.
“I was left in charge of everything,” she said as she gestured around the tavern. “There was a long adjustment period, and I had to harden myself, but that is what I did to survive.”
“I imagine it hasn’t been easy,” I said.
“So, Joe.” She looked at me sharply. “Maybe you can understand why I’m not always super into the one guy, lots of girls legend. I’ve kind of been there, done that.”
“Oh,” I murmured. I didn’t mean to look disappointed, but I knew my face must have dropped a little. “I understand, Cienna. This wasn’t really my idea, either. It all started when I got here to Fairyland--”
I stopped when the blonde grabbed my hand and started to massage my palm with the tip of one of her fingers.
“Joe, there’s just something about you,” she half-whispered and lowered her eyelashes flirtatiously. “I don’t know what it is, but I can’t stop thinking about it.”
My mouth dropped open a little bit, but I tried to recover.
“Y-Your Highness, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about you, either,” I blurted out, since I was still somewhat in shock that she was touching me of her own free will.
I didn’t want to tell her I’d mostly been thinking about her body, and her tiny, heart-shaped face with those entrancing blue eyes, and the ritual… but then again, that wasn’t everything. There was something about the blonde princess’ personality that drew me to her. She and Jessamine were very different, but I liked Cienna’s quiet intelligence and surprising sweetness, when she was being nice, anyway.
“Joe, the hero,” she breathed, and she lifted her face to stare directly into my eyes. “It’s just a weird feeling, to know there is this guy out there, and maybe it’s you, and I have this part to play to save the world, and, well… it’s my destiny… and… I know what happens during the ritual, of course.”
“I get it, Cienna,” I told her softly. “It’s very personal, and we just met each other. I don’t even really understand it myself. You know I just got here, right?”
“I think you need to tell me more about yourself,” the beautiful princess suggested.
“Well, I guess it was about a week ago, though, to be honest, I’ve completely lost track of time,” I began, and I found I wanted to totally spill my guts to Cienna. “I arrived in Jessamine’s palace in the middle of a massive battle, and I had to kill a zombie basically right away. Now, I’ve had to kill actual people, and… Jessamine has been incredible, but I was just a plumber back home, and suddenly she’s calling me a hero… ”
“What’s a plumber?” Cienna asked as she wrinkled her perfect nose.
“You know, I fixed pipes and stuff,” I explained with a shrug. “I would have been a common worker in your castle. You probably would have looked right past me.”
“Don’t underestimate me, Joe,” the princess informed me, and she stroked a finger across the back of my hand. “I try to see people for who they really are, and I see you are a good person and a strong, brave man. It’s this whole hero thing I’m having trouble wrapping my mind around, and it’s not just doubting the hero is you. I’m having trouble believing that the rites are real at all. But even if they are, I’m not sure I want to get married again.”
“Hey, hey, I get it,” I assured her as I shook my head. “A few days ago, I wasn’t thinking about getting married at all. Hell, I didn’t even have a girlfriend. I would have been sitting at this tavern, looking around at the girls, and there’s probably no way I would have approached someone who looks like you.”
“You wouldn’t have approached me?” The princess cocked an eyebrow.
“No, no, that’s not what I meant,” I blurted out and tried to clarify. “It’s because you’re so incredibly beautiful, and I might not have had a chance with you. I know how much attention you probably get.”
“Yeah, there is always someone hanging around me,” Cienna admitted. “But I guess I have to be picky nowadays. Men want my money, or they just want my body. But I feel like you’re a little different. I’ve seen you looking at me, but I know you want to talk to me, too.”
She stared deep into my eyes in the candlelight, and I couldn’t stop thinking about how beautiful she looked. I had to admit half my brain was still thinking about the potential for a hotel threesome with the two princesses, even though Cienna was clearly not in that place. I’d just never spent so many nights with beautiful women in a row, and despite having gotten laid recently, if you could call the ritual that, I was hornier than ever.
Cienna’s hand was still stroking mine, and I noticed our feet were touching, as well. The large bottle of wine was almost empty, and my head spun a little. Then, when she leaned over the table, her ample cleavage spilled out over the top of her embroidered shirt, and I had trouble keeping my eyes away from the sight.
I cleared my throat and was suddenly nervous. I wasn’t about to make a move, but our “first date” was going way better than I’d expected.
“Well, we sure drank that quickly,” I laughed, but the barkeep briefly interrupted me by bringing us our meals.
Steam was still rising off the steaks we’d ordered, and my mouth instantly watered at the succulent scent.
“I should probably get some food in me,” Cienna remarked as she drew her hand away from mine and broke the tension. “I have a feeling things are going to get worse before they get better. What happened in the woods yesterday was so intense, and I think we need to prepare for a bigger battle.”
“I agree,” I told her. “It’s wonderful to get a chance to sit here and relax, but we definitely ca
n’t let our guards down.”
I looked down at my steak, and when I cut into the thick slab with my knife, a faint stream of red ran out. The meat was nice and bloody, just how I liked it, and the juice ran across my plate. Then I took a huge bite and moaned with satisfaction. The inside was tender while the outside was seared to perfection, and my eyes practically rolled into the back of my head.
This was definitely a meal fit for a hero.
A mound of roasted carrots and potatoes sat next to the huge portion of meat, and as I shoveled them into my mouth, my taste buds were immediately assaulted with the flavor of butter and fresh herbs.
Maybe it was the fact that we’d been eating on the run for days, but this meal was pretty damn good. The barkeep had also brought us heavy flagons of smoky ale to accompany the meal, and I couldn’t help but chug it down almost as fast as a thirsty frat boy. A basket of thick, dark bread laid on the table, too, and I scarfed chunks of it with a thick layer of creamy butter.
Once my plate was scraped clean, I sat back with a sigh and patted my full belly.
“Damn, that was good,” I groaned.
“I agree,” Cienna said as she daintily wiped her mouth with a napkin. “Well, maybe we should head upstairs and see what Jessamine is up to.”
I opened my mouth to say we could stay for a little while longer, but the blonde princess was already standing up and stretching her arms over her head, so I supposed our date was over.
“Alright, let’s go.” I nodded before we headed upstairs, and when we got to the room, Jessamine lounged on one of the beds. Her hair fell long and black across her shoulders, and I was reminded of when she’d fucked me and it had hung down and tickled my bare chest.
Jessamine looked up at me and Princess Cienna when we entered and smiled.
“It feels like I’ve been lying here daydreaming for hours,” she murmured and stretched her perfect body out along the bed like a cat. “What have you two been up to?”
“Oh, a little talking, a little drinking,” Cienna said, and she sat down on the bed next to the other princess. “Just getting to know Joe here a little better.”
“Joe is wonderful, isn’t he?” Jessamine gushed.
“I’m certainly starting to understand what you see in him,” Cienna replied, and her lips twitched up into a smile as her sapphire eyes met mine.
“Good.” Jessamine nodded and grinned as she looked between us. “I missed you guys.”
I’d been standing by the bed awkwardly, but the black-haired woman patted the space next to her to indicate I should sit down.
So, I sat on the bed with the two women, and my blood instantly warmed with desire as the princesses’ unique scents washed over me. The raven-haired beauty smelled like a mix of jasmine flowers and some spicy, exotic aroma, and Cienna was like a pine wood forest mixed with a smoky campfire. The scents were very different, but they seemed to complement each other perfectly, and I inhaled deeply as I relaxed.
Then Jessamine started to rub my shoulders, and I groaned as I leaned back into her arms. Her breasts pressed against my spine, and she put her arms around my body and pulled me against her. I took a deep breath and sighed, because the princess’ body was the most amazing thing I’d ever felt.
“Does that feel good, Joe?” Jessamine whispered into my ear, and a shiver raced down my spine.
“Feels great,” I mumbled as I looked up at the dark-haired princess, and then I turned my head to kiss her. I wouldn’t normally have done that in front of Cienna, but the wine had made me bold.
Jessamine’s mouth immediately opened in response, and I gasped when our tongues met.
We kissed for a long moment before Jessamine sat up and smiled. Cienna sat gingerly on the edge of the bed, and when I turned to look at her, her face was flushed. I suspected she’d been watching Jessamine and me, but I couldn’t tell what she was thinking.
“Cienna, come get comfortable,” Princess Jessamine called out and patted the space right next to me. “I’ll rub your back, too. It will feel so good after our long day.”
The blonde stood up and changed her seat, but she still seemed stiff. Then Princess Jessamine began to rub her shoulders, and she almost flinched.
“You know what?” Princess Cienna muttered as she shot back to her feet. “I think I’m just going to get some sleep.”
“Are you okay?” I asked her as I pulled myself into a seated position. My dreams of a threesome were quickly fading, and I was a little worried about the blonde.
“Yes, I’m fine.” Cienna looked deep into my eyes for a moment and reached out to give my hand a quick squeeze. “I’m just tired.”
She smiled weakly and walked over to the other bed, and before I knew it, the blond princess was under the covers and facing the wall.
Jessamine had a slightly sad look on her face, but she brightened when I turned to her and smiled.
“Guess it’s just us, Joe,” she whispered into my ear, and she nibbled softly on my earlobe. “I’m excited the two of us get to share a bed tonight.”
“Me, too, Your Highness,” I responded as I turned to face her while the blood burned in my veins. I didn’t know if it was the wine, but I didn’t think I’d ever been more turned on.
Jessamine turned down the lamp, and the room was bathed in muted shadows as we slid under the covers. It was dark and quiet, and I was acutely aware of every noise and movement.
“Hi,” my wife whispered as she turned to me in the darkness.
“Hey,” I murmured. My hands wanted to go to her breasts, her pussy, and anything else I could grab, but I held back for a moment to see what she would do.
“How are you?” Jessamine breathed, but before I could respond, she started to suck on my ear again, and her hot, wet mouth moved slowly down to my neck.
“Oh, god,” I moaned softly, and the princess covered my lips with her hand.
“Shh,” she whispered. “Cienna is here.”
“I don’t care,” I groaned. “Jessamine, you feel too good.”
I couldn’t help it anymore, and I slid my hands up her warm, soft belly to her breasts. Then I put them in my hands and roughly pinched her nipples as I bit her on the neck.
“Ooh, you’re bad,” she gasped. “You’re making me too wet, and I’m going to want to fuck you. We have to stop.”
“Don’t stop,” I grunted into her ear. “Never stop.”
The raven-haired beauty pulled up my shirt, and she started to nibble her way up my chest. Then she ran her hand down across my waistband and almost touched the tip of my cock.
“Joe, I want to feel you inside me so bad,” she whimpered, and she grabbed my hand, pulled it down inside her pants, and dragged my fingers across her warm mound to her wet slit.
I slid one, then two digits into her hot hole, and she groaned.
“I thought you wanted to be quiet,” I laughed softly and put a finger to her lips. “You better try to keep that little mouth shut while I make you mine.”
The princess only moaned quietly in response and began to move her hips against my fingers. Then she reached her hand further down into my pants and began to softly touch the head of my cock, and I ground my hips up into her body.
I couldn’t see her in the darkness, but I could feel the smoothness of her skin as I attempted to pull her shirt off with one hand. The garment got stuck on her neck, and we both whisper-laughed, but then the shirt was gone, and I pulled the covers over our heads and started to suck on her nipples. I began softly, but I soon gave in to the urge to bite. Since I’d tied her up the other night, I knew the princess liked to feel at least a little pain.
“Hero… ” she gasped as she threw her head back with pleasure. “You have to stop. You already know how loud I am. If you make me cum, I’m going to scream, and then Cienna will definitely hear us.”
“Then just be quieter,” I teased her, and I ran my tongue in slow circles around the tip of her erect nipple.
“I don’t think I can,” she whi
ned and put her hand over her mouth to try and suppress a moan.
“You like my cock, don’t you, Your Highness?” It wasn’t really a question, but I couldn’t help but tease her a little more. Then I ran my thumb up and around her asshole, and her pussy tightened around my hand. “You want to fuck me, don’t you?”
“It’s just so… good,” Princess Jessamine gasped as she started to move her hand up and down my shaft, and as she ran her thumb over the tip, I could feel drops of cum start to ooze out. “It felt so hard and thick inside me. As if it almost wouldn’t fit.”
“Oh, god, how could I forget?” I was lost in the moment now and forgot I was supposed to be teasing the princess. “Jessamine, I need to fuck you again.”
“Joe, all I want is to feel your seed inside of me,” she moaned. “I want you, no, I need you to fill me up again. But I told you before, I can’t cum with Cienna in the room, because as soon as you part my tunnel with your manhood, I know I will explode and start screaming.”
I’d never known a woman before who could get turned on like this princess did. I couldn’t help but think about Cienna on the other side of the room, and I wondered if we were really being as quiet as we thought. Then I imagined her listening to us and fingering her own pussy in the dark, and I knew I was going to cum soon.
Jessamine’s hand was moving faster and faster on my cock now, and I had only one request as I grew closer and closer to letting go.
“Then, if I can’t fill up your womb, you should swallow my cum,” I purred.
“Of course, my hero,” she whispered into my ear, and I was afraid I wasn’t going to make it.
The princess lowered her head and jammed my cock all the way down her throat, and then she moaned with pleasure. The sensation vibrated through my entire body, and my climax overcame me until I shot my hot load into her mouth. There was so much spraying out of me that Princess Jessamine gagged, and I could feel the hot liquid spill out of her mouth and down onto the sheets. She lapped up what she could and swallowed it down with satisfaction, but she wasn’t done yet.
