If Tegan hoped her abbreviated absence would not be noted, she was sorely thwarted. As she walked into the communal womanhood's showers where the early ladies were already rinsing and beginning to lather up, Madison called out.

"Where have yoooou been ?"

Tegan bent her drumhead in superfluity as she headed for one of the free shower bath and turned on the H2O, which thankfully came out steady and hot immediately, enabling her to start rinsing herself off. nearest to her Kuniko handed her a bottle of shower gel and squirted some into her hired hand which she quickly used to whip up and calumniate across her wet cutis. After rallying from the initial superfluity, she looked over and capital of Wisconsin with a coy smile.

"Yeah, get it girl."Madison laughed. Jennifer looked slightly disapproving but said nil."Stan is a get laid tool, but that goes for his trunk as well as his personality. He can scratch an itching, that's for sure."Madison continued.

"I have to admit, that boy can fuck."Kuniko reluctantly concurred."And I don't shag guys."

"You're gay ?"Tracey queried, with a hint of surprise.

"Straight for pay. I'm not like, militantly scared of stopcock. I just wouldn't date a guy."Kuniko scrubbed her face with her work force before rinsing it under the water. She spat out a mouthful of H2O and turned back to Tracey."But twenty buck is twenty dollars and Stan is basically a dildo with a pulse.

"I guess I'm the solitary one here who doesn't go for girls."Tracey said reflectively."Not that there's anything wrong with that."

Tegan smiled to herself, remembering her first conversation with Bethany. Though she was just glad the focus was off her post-show assemblage with Stan.

"So, you guys do this like full time ?"Jennifer asked.

"English gig for me and Koko."James Madison answered for her and Kuniko.

"Are you guys together ?"Jennifer asked.

"Oh, no, but we work together during the day too."

"As what ?"

"Massage therapists."Kuniko answered.

"What kind ?"

"The qualified healing remedial kind."Madison said."Not the happy ending kind."

"Is it uncanny doing this with a colleague ?"

"Nah."Madison shrugged."We were buddies in shoal. diddly-squat, we do everything together don't we. Are you for sure we're not a couple, Koko ? Maybe we oughta get married."

"Not until you're willing to give up cock."Kuniko retorted with a look of mock bitchiness.

President Madison blew a raspberry and thumbs-downed that suggestion.

"What about you Jennifer, what do you do ?"Kuniko asked.

"student. I'm at college. CS Major."

"Nice. You're going to computer program the robot that supersede us all."

"That's the dream."Jennifer said, turning off the water and taking a towel from a terrace to set out drying herself off.

"What about you Tegan ?"Kuniko said, also finishing up her shower.

"I'm sort of between jobs."

"Skills to pay the bills, though."Madison said shooting finger-guns at Tegan before turning off the water.

"Yeah, something like that."Tegan responded ambiguously.

"Tracey ?"

"Oh, I'm a lawyer."

There was an awkward silence.

"Seriously ?"Kuniko asked.

"Yeah."Tracey said, finishing her cascade and walk over to pick up a towel. Tegan also finished her shower bath, wrapping a towel around her. All the women looked uncertainly at each early, realising the entailment of the possibly grey legal area acts they'd just performed. Tracey slowly seemed to gain the effect her answer had had on the room.

"You can unlax. This isn't some stealth bust."Tracey wrapped a towel around herself."Law enforcement don't typically let private eye actually get naked and fuck in the course of an investigation. It would one hundred percent electric ray my career if anyone found out I was here. Besides, I work in polite topic, not criminal."

"Don't lawyers make bank ?"Jennifer asks."Why are you here ?"

"Because I like getting fucked by strangers in presence of a crowd. The money is just a bonus."

"Wow."Jennifer said, letting that sink in."I don't even eff how to respond to that."

With dramatically commodious timing, Karen walked into the room.

"Jennifer, Tegan, if you could connect me in the office when you're dressed ?"

She left, just as abruptly. Tegan and Jennifer exchanged a flavor for a bit then at the others.

"Are we in trouble ?"





The elbow room that served as an bureau was snug, with just enough elbow room for the desk, an function chair, and a couple of erectly chairs opposite. There was a years-old calendar on the wall that didn't make it past Master of Architecture before the person who hung it had stopped bothering to update it. Tegan squeezed through to sit in the chair furthest from the door, wearing her dress. Jennifer was wearing denim and a short hoodie over a sliced band jersey. Having seen her getting spruced up Tegan bang she didn't have a bra on. While that wasn't really important right now, it was something she was aware of.

Karen had her pad standing in its binding and was reviewing it as they entered and waited for them to sit before smiling warmly. Tegan hated to judge a person by their appearance alone as Karen had been nothing but professional and kind so far, but on her severe, angular face, the grinning was unsettlingly predatory.

"Thank you, Lady. I'm sure you're wondering why I've asked you here."

Both female child nodded.

"You're both showtime timers, compensate ?"

Tegan and Jennifer exchanged a glimpse and both nodded again.

"Your little appearance was quite well received by the guests."

Tegan let out a suspiration of relief, strangely glad she wasn't about to get in trouble, though it's not as though this was an actual job that mattered to her.

"I was just doing what I thought I was supposed to."Jennifer said."I mean it wasn't exactly our idea."

"No, but you still performed it admirably."Karen said, gesturing at her iPad"and I almost immediately received a secret booking request."

"From the two cat ?"

"No, though I can see how you'd assume so. It was one of the couples, or rather the male. I am not sure of his pardner's involvement."

"What would he desire us to do ?"Tegan queried.

"I don't have all of the details yet, just an enquiry of availability which I will refer up to Herbert Alexander Simon for approval. It would be reasonable to assume a girl-girl carrying out of some variety, since they specifically asked for the both of you."

"I'm capable to it, once we have more details."Tegan said after a moment's consideration.

"Me too. But no sex."Jennifer said, tucking a on the loose strand of her behind her ear."I promised my boyfriend I'd do viva voce only."She said to Tegan by way of explanation.

"Your limits are noted, of course."Karen acknowledged"But I understand that refers to sexual congress with a man, for the purpose of moving forward with the booking I presume toy dog are acceptable ?"

"Oh, yeah, I guess."

"Very well, then myself or Herbert Alexander Simon will contact you with more information when we have it."





By the time their brief meeting with Karen was over the others had dressed and left. As they exited the house after collecting their bags, Jennifer lit a cigarette. She saw Tegan looking at her and offered her one, which she accepted, taking a docile drag. It had been a few eld since she conclusion partook of the casual social fastball and didn't want to cough like an changeling in figurehead of her new acquaintance.

"So, that was a the pits of a night."Tegan offered after a careful exhale.

"Yeah, it was… something."

"Ever done anything like that before ?"

"Not… exactly."Jennifer took a recollective drag."I mean I've partied. I've been around. You ?"

"I've had some… experiences. Most of them quite recently."Tegan took a heedful drag.

"I'm a virgin."

Tegan choked on her lungful of smoke and pounded on her chest with her fist, forcing herself to take several inscrutable breaths. Jennifer sympathetically rubbed her back.

"You what ?"

"I don't have a beau. I'm a Virgo. That's why I'm viva only."

"So, you've never… ?"

"Don't get me wrong, I've been blowing dudes since I was like, XIV, and I fucking love it. duad of girlfriend too, y'know how college life is."Jennifer took another pull and so did Tegan, her lungs still burning from her cough fit."But I never went all the way."

"If you don't mind me asking… why ?"

"I don't mind. And I just don't want to. I dunno. I blow a guy it's like, whatever, he gets off. But letting him inside me… I feel like he thinks he gets a firearm of you. I guess I don't want to give that away. Maybe that's stupid."

"You know what, you do you. No judgment."

"Thanks."Jennifer bounced anxiously on the balls of her feet."So uh, that's a underground. Ok ? I feel like it might create problem if other people find that out."

"Sure. Absolutely."Tegan nodded. She took another drag and they stood together in muteness near their cars as they silently finished their cigarettes.

"So, uh…"Jennifer stuck her hand out awkwardly"It was real courteous working with you, and I look forward to seeing you next time."

"Likewise."Tegan took Jennifer's hand and shook it.

The side by side good morning Tegan woke to a text from Paul Simon asking if they could meet and after a brief exchange of texts they agreed to meet at a café not far from Herbert A. Simon's shop. Apparently Jennifer was going to be there too, which Tegan took to think that he wanted to discuss the booking request in person rather than via text.

Tegan parked down the street from Simon's shop and headed towards it. Herbert A. Simon was standing outside it leaning against the doorway. He greeted her with a spacious smile and arms open which she took as an invitation to a well-disposed hug.

"Hey Tegan, let's just grab a umber. You hungry ?"

"I'm fine. Where's Jennifer ?"

"She should be here soon."

They walked to a café a few shop class down from Paul Simon's and took out a chair at one of the out-of-door tables, inviting Tegan to sit then sat across from her.

"So how was the party ?"

"I had a really interesting time."Tegan said thoughtfully."Not exactly what I expected but certainly interesting."

"They liked you."Simon Zelotes said, waggling his fingerbreadth at her as if she has somehow tricked him. He turned to the waitress as she stopped by their table and dropped off a nursing bottle of water for them to percentage."Large mocha."

"Skinny vanilla extract latte."Tegan said. The waitress left."Karen said there was a reservation request."

"There is."Simon the Canaanite said, distractedly pouring them each a glass of body of water from the chill bottleful."It's a little unusual."

"Coming from you, that's form of ominous."

Presently Jennifer rounded the recess and Tegan gave her a genteel wave, flagging her down so she came to get together, taking the former set across from Simon and following to Tegan.

"I was just telling Teeg how pop you were at end Nox's party."

"Um, thanks."Jennifer looked around."Is it cool to talk about this out here ?"

"No one's listening."Herbert Alexander Simon assured her.

"Simon the Canaanite was just getting to the part about our next booking."Tegan said as the waitress returned with their coffees.

"Large raw sienna frappe, all the pip cream."Jennifer said, then waited for the waitress to get out again."So, what's the story ?"

"Here it is : one of the guys wants to adopt you."

Jennifer and Tegan both made faces that indicated whatever Herb Simon just said, they weren't understanding it.

"Ok, not adopt literally. I mean he wants to be like a cabbage pappa, but Thomas More than that."

"Can you elaborate a short bit on that ?"Tegan asked.

"He wants to leger you both, for a tenacious weekend. select you somewhere nice out of town, like a resort. withdraw you shopping. Pamper you. Act like you're his loving, caring daughters."

"And then fuck us ?"

"Yes. Well, maybe."

"You know I'm oral only."Jennifer said.

"Yes, and that's fine."Simon assured her."He's more interested in watching you together. Try on outfit. roleplay in the pool. mark around. call off him daddy."

"Honestly this sounds passably cruisey."Jennifer said"You kinda made it sound like there was a catch."

"I'm guessing he'd like us to pretend to be new than we are."Tegan suggested.

"That would be one element of it, yeah."Neil Simon nodded."If you guys are open to it, I'd be glad to flesh out some more of the details and come back to you. But it would be a long weekend, three maybe even four nights."

"I have no issue with that, just let me get it on a little in cash advance so I can plan around it."

"infernal region, I'm on break until the succeeding semester so make it a week."Jennifer said."As long as he's paying."

"Alright."Simon flashed a big grin."Then I'll lock chamber it in."He raised his coffee berry in a toast and they clinked their loving cup together.

That evening the group gathered for dinner : Tegan, Yeong, Brandon, Sam and Aengus, enjoying Tegan's effort at a simple roast lamb and veg. Each of them a couple of boozing in as Tegan cleared away the dishes to deal with later and brought back fresh boozing. It seemed to suit the mode to have a drink accompanying dinner so there was an almost finished feeding bottle of wine on the table that had been split between her, Yeong and Brandon, while Sam had knocked back a couple of beers and Angus was on his thirdly glass of scotch which he drank neat in a curvy Methedrine that he said improved the olfactory property. To Tegan it smelled like burned-out condom and tasted of band-aids. After returning to the table with an extra bottle of wine-coloured and a beer for Sam she gently addressed the subject of her approaching trip.

"So I have a affair coming up that I will involve to be out of town for."She started ambiguously.

"Oh, what's tha'?"

"Just a personal trip-up. But I will be away for about four solar day, over a weekend."She emptied the lastly of the open nursing bottle of wine-coloured into her glass and took a sip."I'll make for sure I pay my share of the bank bill for the time I'm away."Hoping to satisfy any followup interrogative sentence from Oengus and Sam, not wanting to get into the details of her arrangement, though it seemed that the financial aspect was furthest from Angus'mind.

"fountainhead yeh'll have to make sure our bollock are proper drained before yeh go."Angus drawled, swirling his drinking glass. In the corner of her eye she saw Brandon fidget anxiously.

"Does he always talk like that about your relationship ?"Yeong said with a note of concern.

"Sex is our relationship."Tegan said with a suspiration."You get used to his…"

"Brutishness ?"

"…directness. Eventually."

"She likes it."Aberdeen Angus said, leaning over and caressing Tegan's cheek then gently squeezing her chin before releasing her and sipping his whisky."Tegan is a medium, paying attention, intelligent female child. But in the sleeping room, that's where ah make water her flavor like a real number woman."

Tegan sipped her wine, fixing Angus with a minacious glare, but didn't deny it. She didn't appreciate him trying to embarrass her in front of their houseguest but at the same time all she wanted him to pin her down and have it off her intemperate. It was infuriating how he continued to give birth that consequence on her.

"We have company."Tegan said eventually, pointedly. Angus Og didn't need the reminder, but she did finger like an objection should be recorded.

"Oh I…"Yeong stammered"It's not my way but I don't mean to judge."

"It is an unconventional arrangement."Tegan said, turning to Yeong."I'm sorry if Aengus made thing uncomfortable."

"He didn't. Honestly, as much as he might have tried."

They both laughed at that and Angus harrumphed to himself as he nursed his scotch.

"I'm just happy that things are going so well between you and Brandon."

"Hey I'm right here."Brandon objected.

"Good peak. Girl talk time !"Tegan took up the undefended wine-coloured feeding bottle and her glass in one hired hand and Yeong by the wrist in the other and led her into the kitchen completion over the sliding door, and led them to the table where they could set down their wine glasses. She could get wind Sam assuring Brandon that he didn't need to follow and to just relax. She assumed Aengus and Sam would try to coax more details of his new sex life out of him and felt slightly bad for leaving him behind, but she wanted to get to acknowledge Yeong better.

"So, matter are going well, I hope ?"

"Yes."Yeong said simply, fidgeting with her wine Methedrine and taking a sip.

"I really am sword lily. I just wanted to enlighten the air between us."

"open the air ?"

"wellspring not to dwell on about it, but I hope you aren't uncomfortable about me and Brandon still living together. After everything."

"You've both been very honest with me. I think if I felt like there were secrets being kept from me, I would be worried. But I'm not. And I'd like us to be friends."

"That's great, Brandon is a friend and I want anyone he cares about to be a Friend too."

There was a brief pause as they both drank.

"To be reliable, Brandon told me some more details."

"Oh, what's that ?"Tegan said, feeling her stomach good turn over.

"He told me that sometimes the relations were not strictly one on one."

"Ah."Tegan acknowledged carefully, trying to assess Yeong's feeling about this."Yes. That was sometimes the case."

"You described it as polyamory but that's not exactly the Word of God I would use."

"Well, in the interests of fully disclosure, no. To put it completely bluntly, I became the sign slut."Tegan sighed.

"Why ?"Yeong asked."I'm sorry, I don't mean to pry."

"I don't thinker telling you, especially because I want us to be friends. You might as well know the whole story."

Tegan relayed every detail - her inexperience, her lousy human relationship, her growing need to explore her sex, and her determination to take leave her job and live in the house as a live in sexual love slave. She left out a few incidents that fell outside the scope of the understanding that Brandon was belike unaware of : the resplendence maw, the poker night, the swingers political party. But otherwise she was open about the triad and foursomes, the pack bangs, even the periodic flavoring of her food with a little man sauce. At times Yeong seemed equal parts fascinated and horrified, but Tegan held zilch back hoping that any judgments or vexation would only have a recoil on her, and not Brandon. Eventually she concluded the recollective story.

"…and here we are."

Yeong was silent while she let it sink in.

"Brandon was involved in… all that ?"

"A little bit. I think he let the other guy push him into it. Just went with the flow. Mostly he preferred to go at his own pace. He wasn't fond of sharing - that's why he values what he has with you much much more than anything we had together."

"It feels like you're working hard to support him."

"Maybe, but it's all true."Tegan rested her hand on Yeong's."I hope this doesn't make you think less of him."

"Actually, it makes me feel better. It helps me sympathize that what you had was not… personal. Even though it was intimate."She smiled, finishing her crank of wine.

"I also hope we can still be acquaintance. I'm sure your opinion of me is probably pretty low."

"I will accept, you've done thing I could not do. But in a way, I am envious of how freeing it must be to be able to act so shamelessly."She clapped her paw over her mouth, looking apologetic."I'm sorry, that must have sounded so awful."

"I think I understand what you meant. No law-breaking taken."

A forte joke went up in the other room.

"I wonder what that was about ?"Yeong pondered aloud.

"Boy talk probably. We can leave them to it awhile longer."



-- -- -



In the early room Brandon watched Yeong and Tegan leaved and buried his forefront in his hands.

"What's up lad ?"Angus queried.

"Two only two charwoman I've been with just went off to have a private talk."

"Ah, donnae worry about it. Have another drink."

"Look all they're going to do is have a deeply personal conversation about their one common interest - you - and compare notes."Sam said cheerfully.

"Savior Christ."Brandon moaned.

"On the top side, yeh can tell us all about yeh new girl. Yeh've been pretty active the go couple o'weeks."

"That's my business organization. I'm not going to plowshare any of that."

"Ah go on. I'll tell yeh some o'my war stories."

"I don't want to have intercourse !"

"Yehs no fun."Angus said, swirling his Glencairn glass.

"It's not about ‘ fun ’, it's about trust."

"Yeh quite sweet on this lady friend ain't yeh ?"

"She's sweet, and suspect, and interesting."

"Ah, immature love."

"Don't let old man Angus cheapen your relationship."Sam cut across Angus'mocking flavor."We know she's important. He's just being a dickhole."

"What ? Young love is tinny. Yeh'll always commemorate yeh first but it won't have staying big businessman. Yeh'll grow up and affect on and become different people. Just savour what yeh have now."

"Don't talk about Yeong like that."Brandon said sharply.

"Ah'm nae talking about Yeong, ah'm talking about Whitney Young people. Yeh're idiot. But so are middle aged hoi polloi and old people."Angus drained his scotch and poured another."We're all idiots."

"So who are you to be lecturing me ?"

"Ah'm no one. Just a center aged perv who's fishin'fer point about yeh hot new girl."

"Ok, fair enough."Brandon laughed.

"So yeh'll contribution the details ?"

"No."

They all laughed at that and Angus turn to Sam.

"What about yeh ? What's yeh best lay ?"

"Oh, Tegan. Without a doubt."Sam said, finishing his beer and shaking the dregs at the butt of the bottle.

"Aye ?"

"She's cute, adventuresome, up for anything. Not the hottest, but she gets stop just for the diddlysquat she's let me do to her."

"Go on."Angus encouraged.

"Ah Angus, you've been there for most of it."Sam reached across the table and poured some of Angus'Scotch malt whiskey into an discharge meth. Angus looked irritated but didn't object.

"C'mon, there's got to be at least one time yeh got nasty with her in a one-on-one scenario."

"Well… one clip I pissed in her mouth."Sam sipped the malt whisky then grimaced at the savor and threw it back in one gulp.

"Ew."Brandon said, making a boldness."waiting, Did she… ?"

"Swallow ? Nope. Don't worry, it was in the bath."

"Still, ew."

"How'd yeh convince her to let yeh do that ?"

"Well to be fair it was the end of a pretty long night, I think I'd wrung the electric resistance out of her. But I just told her directly I was gon na do it. She could say no, but she didn't."

"Well, it's nae my thing, but I'm impressed by the both o'yeh."Angus poured Sam another measuring stick of scotch into Sam's cup.

"Ok, middling's funfair. What's the crisp tinker's damn you did with Tegan ?"

"Ah, well…"Angus demurred."…Ah might've taken her tae a glory hole."

"Those are a material matter ?"Brandon asked.

"If yeh know where tae look."Angus nodded."And ah do. Donnae worry, everyone is properly vetted and fairly. I made certain o'it."

"Everyone ? Like multiple ?"

"Fifteen blokes, she took on. Like a cum guzzling champ."

Brandon and Sam slumped in their chairs.

"That was the Night you took her shopping for dominatrix gear."Sam concluded.

"Aye."

"Wow. She agreed ?"

"Took a little arm twisting, but she was convinced."

"Well that makes my poker party seem tame by comparison."

"fire hook party ?"Brandon queried.

"Oh yeah, you weren't home that nighttime. I had some mates over. Tegan lost at poker. She lost hard."Sam chuckled."On purpose."

"On one hand it seems like we're exploiting Tegan. On the early paw her… willingness… makes it seem like she's doing exactly what she wants."

"Pure slut, that little girl. Through and through."Aengus raised his ice in a toast. Sam tapped it with his plastic cup, Brandon joined the goner with his wine glass.

"To Tegan."



-- -- -

Yeong and Tegan exited the kitchen just as they were toasting and put a mitt to her chest as if flattered.

"That was a nice toast, I hope."She said sweetly.

"Aye jeune fille, just reflecting on how much we appreciate having yeh in our lives."

"Did you have a good lecture ?"Brandon asked.

"Sure."Tegan smiled, giving Brandon a favorable clap on the shoulder."Bathroom."She disappeared down the hall and Yeong sat next to Brandon, giving him a reassuring osculation on the cheek.

"Don't concern, we were just getting to know each other better."She said."What about you boys ? beneficial talk ?"

"Just reliving some memories."Sam said, sipping his Scotch malt whiskey."the Nazarene Aberdeen Angus what is this shit ?"

"That's Ardbeg Corryvreckan, yeh heathen."

"Corrywhatan ?"

"Ah, yeh've nae taste."

"I need another beer."

"I need to pee."Brandon announced.

"See you in your room ?"Yeong hinted.

"See you there."He kissed her buttock and left, hoping Tegan was done.

"sunniness to that !"Angus toasted the air as Yeong trailed after Brandon, headed towards his room and Sam headed into the kitchen to get himself a beer, coming back and popping the cap off as he retake his seat, looking around.

"Where's Tegan ?"



As Brandon shook off he washed his hands and exited the bathroom, slightly tipsy as he headed back to his room. He slipped inside and closed the door behind him, sliding the bolt. When he turned towards the bed he froze in his tracks.

Sitting on the bed, wearing only their underwear, were Yeong and Tegan .
