Rebirth of the Nephilim

Chapter 177: Considerations

“Just fucking tell them. Who cares if you’re the head of the company? You think the heads of other mercenary companies don’t plough a few subordinates every now and again?”

Kerr’s unapologetically crass answer to Jadis’ concerns about whether or not she should reveal the guaranteed plus potential benefits of having sex with her to the newest recruits of Fortune’s Favored came as no surprise. She’d expected the blasé response from the carefree therion since her attitude towards sex was certainly the most open and uninhibited out of all of them. What Jadis hadn’t expected was the general agreement that came from everyone else.

“It’s only fair to give them the choice,” Aila advised with a serious look on her face. “Just like you gave me the details of what your rituals could do, and then did the same for Kerr, Eir, and Thea back in the cave. I’m not saying that you have to, or that you should make the offer to every person that may eventually join the company, but making the offer isn’t a bad thing. It’s good to give people the full information so they can make an informed decision.”

“They c—could use the attribute boosts,” Thea added in her quiet voice. “It would help them and the c—company overall if they’re, ah, stronger.”

“Even if they don’t get a Nephilim related class,” Eir said with one finger on her chin, “Thea is still correct that the attribute bonus alone would be of great practical benefit to them and our team. That said, if you are going to make them a sexual offer, I think it’s important that one or more of us also be present. We could attest to the truth of what your rituals are capable of as well as smooth over any misunderstandings.”

After a few seconds of thought, Eir continued while motioning towards Jadis’ three selves with one hand.

“I think it might also be best if you admit to your nature as a single individual as well. I understand that the more people who know about the abilities of your Mirror Knight class the more likely it is that the secret will get out, but I believe that it is better to tell those who will be close to you than it is to hide it from them. Showing your trust in them is important.”

Jadis had thought she might be overthinking things a bit, but the advice and comments coming from her lovers genuinely surprised her. She’d figured there would be at least a few reservations about her offering her lewd ritual services to two more women. Maybe a little jealousy? She knew she would have felt at least a little possessive if Eir or Thea decided to go sleep with someone else.

Then again, should she feel possessive of them? They were teammates and friends she trusted implicitly, but they weren’t exactly in a formal relationship like her and Aila. Kerr had every right to run off and fuck whoever she wanted if she felt like it. That was her gods’ given freedom. While Jadis had talked things over with Aila early on when they’d first started sleeping with each other, she’d never really had that talk with the others. The more she thought about it, the more Jadis was certain that they probably should have some kind of talk about boundaries and how they felt about each other in this team-based pseudo-relationship. In her head, she’d started thinking of Eir and Kerr and Thea as her lovers. But was that how they thought about her? They were certainly far more accepting of their frankly polygamous relationship than Jadis would have expected from most people back on Earth. Maybe it was just a cultural difference? She knew Kerr’s people saw multiple partners as common, but what about humans and elves? Or rather, what about the people who lived in the Empire?

Jadis shook her heads to clear and reorient her thoughts. She was getting sidetracked again, like she so often did when she got caught up in her own mind. The question for the moment was whether or not she should tell Sabina and Bridget about her sex rituals and the potential effects it could have on their class options at level twenty. The consensus from her team was that she should. With that kind of input from them, she was leaning in the same direction. But she still needed some clarifications, first.

Jay walked out through the open door of the bathroom that adjoined their shared bedroom while drying her white hair with a towel. Her hair had gotten longer over the months she’d been living on Oros and was now brushing an inch or two past her shoulders. Long enough that she thought she might need to get it trimmed. Pulling the damp towel away from her face, she met the gaze of Aila who just happened to be the closest person to the bathroom door.

“If we do tell them, and one or both accept, does that mean we invite them into our bedroom for our, ah, ‘group sessions’ that we do most nights?”

Aila looked at Jay thoughtfully. She was dressed only in a loose shirt and a set of smallclothes that kept her ritual-created package from dangling loose between her long legs. It had been days since the ritual and yet she was still sporting the cock Jadis had given her. Jadis had to internally laugh at how much fun Aila seemed to be getting out of having her own junk to play with.

“I’d want to be there for any interactions like that,” Aila said adamantly. That assertion came as no surprise to Jadis since that had been their deal from the start. “But that doesn’t mean I have to participate. A one-on-one encounter might be preferable for them. Not everyone is, well, as comfortable with all of this as we are.”

The last was said with a wave of an open hand towards Jay’s entirely naked body on full display, then followed with a wave towards the others in the room who were all in various states of undress.

“I didn’t ever consider the possibility of this kind of, um, personal activity would be something that I would participate in, much less look forward to,” Eir said while looking away bashfully. She was sitting on the edge of the bed and combing her purple hair. “So if Sabina or Bridget tried it, they might like it. But I can understand if they wouldn’t want to. It’s a bit overwhelming in concept. And reality…”

Well, question not asked, question partially answered. Maybe polygamy wasn’t all that common after all. Just not frowned on, Jadis guessed.

“They’re going to have to at least get used to us doing it. If we’re out in the wilderness for more than a day trip we’re going to be fucking by the campfire,” Kerr said from where she lay naked and sprawled across the bed on her stomach, feet kicking in the air behind her and tail slowly wagging. “You’re way too loud once you get going to pretend you aren’t getting your guts rearranged and I’m just plain not going to try to hide my moans of pleasure.”

“Kerr!” Eir cried out indignantly while swatting the therion’s shoulder with her comb.

“Don’t whip the messenger, elfy. You’ve got a beautiful singing voice. What was that last one? ‘Ah! Ah! Oh please fuck me harder! Oh, ah! Give me more!’ It was such a moving rendition of Priestess Being Defiled by a Giant Cock that I felt my soul quiver inside me.”

While Kerr continued to tease Eir, who had by then buried her face in her hands, Jay turned to Aila and Thea.

“So, best to just lay it all out there, be honest, and let them decide how they want to handle it, right?”

“Yes,” Aila agreed.

Thea nodded as well but added a thought.

“M—maybe make it clear that they don’t have to if they don’t want to? No r—reprisals?”

“Absolutely,” Jay said without hesitation. “If one or both of them want nothing to do with the sex rituals, that’s their choice. They won’t be treated any differently either way.”

Thea looked far happier hearing Jadis say that aloud, though she noticed that she hadn’t looked directly at Jay since she’d come out of the bathroom. That realization made her smirk. Thea was on the shorter side of their group. Not as short as Eir, who was by far the smallest person in the room, but definitely shorter than Aila and Kerr. That meant the shy brunette was basically at eye level with Jay’s crotch.

She would have thought the girl would have gotten used to her nudity by then, but it seemed the casual display of her body was still enough to make Thea blush like a nun in a dildo factory.

Jadis’ other two bodies were just about finished cleaning themselves off, so Jay moved out of the way of the bathroom door to make room for Dys and Syd who would soon be exiting. As she moved forward, she strode up to Thea who was standing off to one side of the room where they’d piled most of their equipment. She was wearing a shirt and pants combo she often wore casually when not wearing armor, which also made her the most dressed person in the room. Jadis was in a mind to change that.

Quietly coming up behind Thea while she fiddled with the buckles and straps on a piece of her armor, Jay moved close enough that she was practically touching the smaller woman.

“You know, the last couple of nights you’ve been doing a lot of watching and not a lot of participating,” Jay clicked her tongue. “We’re talking about all these benefits that Sabina and Bridget might get but you’re in danger of losing yours at this rate, Thea.”

Leaning down so that she could put her lips close enough to her ear to whisper, Jay continued.

“Having fun with your fingers while you watch us fuck is fine, but I’d personally really love it if my little shield maiden let me play with that perfect peach of an ass she’s hiding in those pants tonight.”

The shiver that visibly went through Thea made Jay grin widely. Putting one hand on Thea’s left hip, she moved her mouth closer so that her lips actually were touching the side of Thea’s face.

“How about it? Aila needs a refill for her canteen and I’d really love your help.”

“A—ahm, ah, y—yes, I c—could help with th—that.”

Jay grinned even more brightly at Thea’s stumbling yet heated words. She also grinned because in the next moment she managed to get the better of Kerr.

The sneaky archer had slipped off the bed while Jay was bent at the waist and whispering to Thea, undoubtedly on a mission to do something forward with Jay’s exposed posterior. But Kerr had forgotten to take into account that Jadis had more than one set of eyes to work with.

Before Kerr’s grasping hands could reach Jay’s pale cheeks, Syd caught her up into the air with a yelp and tossed her through the air to land on the bed with a squawk and a bounce. A second later, Syd landed on top of her, silencing all protests by sitting her bum directly on top of Kerr’s face.

“Don’t mind us,” Syd said with a wave of one hand while she grabbed hold of Kerr’s kicking legs in the other. “Just keeping this beast busy. Contin—ow! No biting!”

The reprimand was punctuated by Syd giving Kerr’s ass a meaty slap. With both her ankles grasped in Syd’s left hand and her legs held up straight in the air, Kerr’s rump was an easy target for Syd, so she gave it another smack for good measure.

“Fuck, that’s better. Love your tongue, Kerr…”

Jay had momentarily turned her head to look back at what her other self was doing with the lewd archer, but she quickly resumed her attention on Thea. The brunette had turned to look at Kerr and Syd too, so when Jay looked back at her, their eyes met.

“So? Ready to give me a hand?” Jay grinned at her.

Thea nodded, cheeks flushed and breath already picking up.

“Good,” Jay purred.

Then, abruptly, she squatted down while grasping hold of Thea’s pants and pulled them down to her feet.

“I don’t think you’ll be needing these anytime soon,” she said as she lifted the shy former guardswoman up into the air while leaving her pants on the floor.

She stepped over to the bed, Thea in her arms, and gave Aila and Eir a grin.

“You two don’t mind letting Thea take the spotlight right now, do you?”

“Of course not,” Aila said primly, the erection straining against her smallclothes betraying her excitement. “I’ll go fetch my canteen.”

Eir’s positive response was muffled by the nightshirt she was pulling over her head in her own eagerness, but Jadis got the gist of it.

“No need,” Dys said as she walked over with the enchanted canteen in one hand, a copper funnel they’d bought for practical considerations in the other. “I’ve got everything we need.”

“Yes, indeed I do,” Jay murmured as she planted a kiss on the top of Thea’s head. “So, how do you want to help me?” She asked her, putting the ball in Thea’s court to see what she’d do.

After a few moments of bashful mumbling, Thea looked up at Jay and gave her a hesitant smile.

“C—can I try something?”

“Anything you want,” Jay said, meaning it.
