Jasmine finished putting the twins in the room she rented out in case this happened. It took all her willpower, but she stopped them before they went too far. Lying Elsie down next to Ana, they immediately found each other in an embrace.
She looked at Claire in the other bed. She was restless in her sleep. She kicked and squirmed in the bed. Jasmine could only guess it was because of her new burden.
"Fuck, could you not wait to spring it on the girl?" Jasmine groaned.
She sat next to Claire and caressed her face. She was trying to ease Claire's pain in any way she could. Her former student was carrying far too much on her shoulders. Then Elizabeth decided to add her plans on top of it.
Claire reacted to her touch, seeming to calm down slightly. She didn't expect her party members to be such lightweights. The twins barely finished one drink. At least Claire could handle one full glass.
She let out a sigh and lay down next to Claire. She wrapped the writhing girl in her arms and started humming a lullaby. Her embrace and the humming drastically calmed Claire down. She was no longer kicking, and her breathing returned to a normal, deep cadence.
Not long after, Jasmine fell asleep herself.
Claire woke up to a blinding light. She began to panic as she thought her goddess was visiting her. But her splitting headache and nausea snapped her out of that delusion.
It was the sun peeking through the curtains and hitting her eyes. She tried to sit up, but her world spun. It felt like her head was being stabbed. Her vision blurred as her head felt light.
Her world slowly stopped spinning after a minute. She could begin to see more clearly now. Her head was still throbbing in pain, but she could deal with it for now. She looked to her right side and found Ana. She looked to her left, and Elsie was hanging onto her arm.
Both twins mimicked her initial actions as they stirred.
"Ahh, my head," Elsie whimpered softly. She strained her eyes closed to relieve the pain. Ana was rubbing her temples as she agreed with a nod.
Claire chuckled lightly, causing her headache to worsen as she winced in pain. "So this is a hangover."
Ana flinched at the sound, causing her own pain to flare. "Y-yeah, let me try healing."
Her hands glowed a radiant yellow as the light enveloped Claire. Her pain slowly faded, but her lightheadedness and nausea remained.
"Thank you, Ana, how'd we get here?" Claire asked. She felt another soothing sensation, guessing that it was her aura. "Last I remember we were on the table…" S
he looked to the other bed, expecting Jasmine, but it was empty. It looked to have been used with the blankets thrown around.
She lay back and let the twins snuggle up to her. Despite the stimulation of the two, her cock for once did not stir. Her body was seemingly too tired to get it up. Their warmth did feel nice, though.
Slowly, she drifted back to sleep with a twin on each side of her.
She was awakened with a shake, her eyes shot open to see Jasmine standing over her. Her nausea and lightheadedness seemed to be gone now. She slowly sat up. Jasmine helped her as she shook off Elsie and Ana.
"What time is it?" She asked groggily.
"2 in the afternoon. When did the twins join you?" She asked, tilting her head.
Claire shrugged and said, "I thought you put them here."
Jasmine sighed and continued. "We seriously need to talk about all this."
Claire nodded. While it was nice to escape from reality for the night, she knew this conversation needed to happen.
"Do you want to start with the cocks or…"
"I guess, but first we should wake them up," she said. They chose a twin and woke them up. They both groggily got up and shuffled close to Claire. Elsie rested her head on Claire's shoulder while Ana lay on her lap. They did their best to stay awake while Jasmine spoke.
"We need to rein in these urges. Imagine if your mom returned while you girls were on that table?" Her tone was serious. Flashes of the previous night came back to Claire. A flash of the twins kissing while coated in their cum. "I'm not mad, we just need to deal with it."
Claire nodded, "I know… It's just so tempting when I see you three."
"True, especially in that dress," Elsie whispered softly in her ear.
Claire smiled at that.
They didn't even get to see the lingerie she was wearing. Her cock seemingly woke up at Elsie's words. It grew against Ana's head, causing her to gasp.
She shook her head. It was happening again. She was getting distracted.
"M-maybe we n-need to distract ourselves," Ana said from Claire's lap. She was dangerously close to Claire's growing erection. "O-or relieve our.. Urges."
Jasmine pursed her lips in contemplation. "Distractions only last for a while. How would we keep distracted on long travels? And if we relieved the urges, do you know how much time that'd waste?"
"Could Lily make a libido controller?" Elsie asked.
That meant she'd have to be brought into the secret of the party. Something Jasmine was hesitant to do.
"It's a good idea," Jasmine said. "But she may freak out upon learning why."
"How were you able to control yourself last night?" Claire asked.
"My class. It was hard to resist when I first got my cock," She explained. "You've seen how badly I crave it. Then I got used to it more. My unnerving skill and breathing techniques were finally able to control those urges."
"That must be nice," Elsie said. She shifted to lie next to her sister, making Claire tense up. They were so close, and it was getting hard to concentrate. "Maybe our paladin wouldn't get hard so quickly."
Claire flinched.
She tried her best to control herself. "My Goddess really wants me to… breed. It's hard to control it as well."
She closed her eyes. Claire did her best to mimic her former teacher's meditations. Controlling her breathing to stop her heart from racing. She opened her eyes when Jasmine grabbed her hand.
"Claire, it's okay," Jasmine said with a warm smile. "She's fucking with you. We can try the libido suppressants for now and keep ourselves distracted in the meantime."
She let out a drawn-out sigh. Jasmine studied the three before her.
"Best distraction right now is Elizabeth's plan."
Silence enveloped the room.
She was right. Every lewd thought left Claire's mind, and her words were caught in her throat. The future of both the party and their lands. Overthrowing Lady Lloyd and changing society was too much to think about.
"We need to get you levels and get you more skills," Jasmine said. She saw the emotions cross each of their faces. "Elizabeth already has quests lined up, but we also need to experiment with our buffs. And grow our bond for the Bestowed Skills."
"Right, the experience gain skill should be our main priority," Elsie stated. "If we can upgrade that, then it will make leveling easier."
They all nodded in unison.
Their thoughts went to their unique skills and how best to utilize them. Jasmine had already put in orders for tonics and poisons for tests. Elsie looked to her sister. She could trigger both their skills pretty easily. She had a notification from last night still lingering in her status sheet. Ana was thinking along the same lines. Both began to speculate.
Claire, however, remembered how much experience she got from gaining a lover. She thought about Restol's alchemist and whether it'd be worth recruiting her as well. Claire felt a tingling sensation in the back of her neck. She was able to level up without fighting, something unusual for combat classes.
Guess it made sense with what her Goddess wanted.
After a brief pause for each of them to think, Claire decided to speak up. "What type of quests do we have lined up?"
"Mostly monster hunting," Jasmine took a deep breath. She had just returned from talking with Elizabeth about this. "She got us quests above your pay grade, but would yield a lot of experience."
She paused and looked at Claire, "Those are to fight bandits… and traffickers."
She let her words hang in the air. She knew all three struggled with the idea of taking another woman's life. Then there were the traffickers. Women who kidnapped boys to sell.
Claire tensed up. Yet again, she was confronted with killing. The two groups of women were horrible people. Bandits that pilfered villages and raped adults and children alike. And traffickers. Women who stole boys from their homes.
Jasmine watched Claire's expression become more stoic as she digested her words. She expected Claire to be angry upon hearing about traffickers, but her former student kept it together.
"I will do what I must."
