Chapter 22 Why was she naked?

  {Alex}

  I was actually able to go to work the next day and was mildly upset that my baby was hidden in a warehouse across town. Boss wouldn’t even let me work on her. He forced me to work on two ugly badly damaged Knights that came in. The pilots were clearly idiots as both only wanted to use badly armored fists and wands were outright disgusting to them. I just growled and got the work done as quickly as I could so I could work on something more fun. What else could I work on? I went to my office and sat down pulling out my almost full notebook. May need to get another one soon. It would be nice to organize it into sections. Battery was nice enough to go get me a new notebook when he came to check on me.

  While I waited, I started pulling out pages and sorting them into piles. Ideas for future projects, diagrams, and things I figured out. Cores seemed to be condensed mana, does this mean if my pool gets deep enough, I may develop a core myself? If that was the case, why did Gen have a core? I started a new page and section for questions. Questions: metals interacting with the cores, how does it all work? Why is it that Silversteel acted like copper in a power line, linking the runes and allowing them to interact. Normally you can only link one rune at a time with a single line, but with Silversteel, the mana can flow more freely and chain together more runes. So why did Gold and iron act like rubber? They held the mana in or in the case of gold prevented decay of the core. My human core was fully cased in gold in my safe at home, hidden in my bed frame. The best place to hide something is in plain sight. I wanted to make sure that one didn’t decay. So the cores drew in and stored mana from the world, this mana could make the core break down slowly as it gained too much. Depleting them seemed to increase their shelf life. So why didn’t they decay in the body? Did the body stabilize the core, or was the body using the mana even if the person didn’t have their channels open? My questions page was starting to fill up and I was scratching my head. Back to the runes, I would have to ponder the core questions later. My tri-core engine lay on one page. It was a thing of beauty. Knights would use the standard engines to run the Manawire muscle fiber and hinge Silversteel joint structures. It wasn’t perfect and if the Knight was doing more than just a slow walk, it could easily run out of power.

  Also, to protect the engine, it had to be just behind the cockpit in the chest. To make up for the mana loss, a hatch could be opened to a large receptive plate that could pull mana into the engine. Two large mana batteries hidden around the cockpit helped with the issue. My new tri-engine would allow the mana to be used more efficiently, but the issue of mana drain would hinder anything I made. How do I get around this issue? My mind went back to my world and thought of electric forklifts. How did they get around this issue? They would cycle the lifts or just switch out the batteries. My eyes went wide as they went over the RV I had made a drawing of. If I take that idea and build an arm.

  The wolf could enter through a hatch and swap out the engine or batteries. Line the roof in mana accumulators, add enough room for three wolves. Given that this one would need two wolves to pull it and add a small crew quarters. Yes, it may not be able to enter town, but most paths could still be used and with cycling them like this, I could have a team running throughout the whole trip. This could work but would be useful down the road. My mind went to that hatch. What if I put in a hatch to dump the mana. If something went wrong, it would be nice to dump the mana and save my baby. Saving the pilot may be okay too, but that was an afterthought. My thoughts went to Meathead. He wouldn’t press that button even if his life was being threatened. Knowing my luck, my baby would be hurt, and the idiot would be fine. I needed something that could send a signal to the hatch so I could make sure my baby would live. Are there monsters who talk without talking? I didn’t just want to make a normal signal that anyone could use. My mind went to the idea of the linked collars and the strange runes.

  That seemed pointless. One sketch stood out. It was Battery’s bomb. It wouldn’t work as it was but if one was able to send a signal to it. No, just no. The last thing I wanted was having the ability to set a mana bomb somewhere and let it go off from anywhere. It was the worst part of my old world and something I didn’t want here. After checking the other side and finding a question about Lily’s birthday, I ripped up the page, put it in my pocket to pitch it into a fire soon as soon as I could. I would never have something like that here. I wrote the question on the question page and moved on. I wonder what Gen’s and Uta’s birthdays were. What about Gorloth and Orthonai? When would mine be in this world? I was born in October, but here they had sixteen months split into seasons. Safe to say they had a few more days than my own earth. A year was longer at four hundred and eighty days in a year and thirty days in each month. I arrived on third month, and it was now what? Sixth or seventh month? I couldn’t remember. All I cared about was getting to my next goal and maybe enjoying my bunny, training my boy and making my friends happy.

  I burned my old notebook after putting things in place in the new one and hid it in my desk in encased in metal like the control coins at home. Even if they couldn’t read English, I didn’t want my nightmares getting out until I was ready. If anyone made coin on these things, it was going to be me. Battery was nice enough to get me a spare and I kept that on me for jotting down ideas as I worked throughout the day. A fat caravan captain came up to me rubbing his hands in excitement and I growled at him not appreciating the distraction. “Are you the toy maker?” He asked, rubbing his hands together. I frowned at him not knowing or caring where this was going. “Good. I was wondering if I could trade you a training table for some standard training Dolls.” This piqued my interest, and I tucked my notebook away. He smelled like coins, and I knew a deal when I saw one.

  “How many?” I asked licking my chops.

  “Well, I plan to sell the tables for a small mithril and would like to sell the Dolls for five gold each, so twenty-five? I’d be willing to buy any extra you make at let's say three gold each? Do we have a deal?” He asked scratching the back of his head. I crossed my arms and smiled.

  “I would like to talk to Boss as I’d be using his metal.” I said standing up. Double chin just nodded and smiled at me.

  “Good, good, we will be here for a week, and I will be staying at the inn. Come find me when you come to a decision.” He left the shop quickly and I made my way to Boss’s office. My huge boss was in and smiled at me as though I held a pile of gold coins.

  “Good job on those two. I know this is a pain but hang in there.” He said as he stomped his fingers. I just nodded and sat down.

  “How much does a bar of Silversteel cost?” I asked, getting to the point. He leaned back, crossing his arms. I hoped this would go easily.

  “About five gold a bar. Why?” I inwardly growled at myself. I could have had my own table long ago. This world was so fucking wrong.

  “Fuck. I can make those training tables that Double Chin is offering a small mithril for.” Boss just laughed and shook his head.

  “That is what this is about. Tell you what, make him an offer for Dolls and tables and we split the profits, fair?” Boss said as he slapped the table.

  “Split?” I asked,

  “Yeah, my fucking metal.” He growled at me.

  “Oh, that seems fair. Your metal and my skill. Let's see if I can force you to buy another shipment of metal.” I said with an evil smile.

  “Yeah, this time without you almost getting kidnapped.” Boss said with a scoff.

  “True although I did get something nice off the last one.” I said rubbing my stubbled chin. Boss just frowned at me.

  “Don’t get kidnapped.” He demanded.

  “I know. It would be tempting fate if I just kept putting my neck out there.” I said scoffing. He nodded and I went to the inn. The caravan was gathered around a table and one of the pilots was fighting Woodcutter. Woodcutter was winning without even really trying. The man had some real skill.

  “Come on guys, if you don’t use weapons, the least you could do is try to flank me,” he said with a boastful smile. I just laughed and made my way to Double chin who was sitting at a table drinking an ale. He kept smacking his lips and looking at the cup.

  “Ah, Toy Maker, come on over. This town must have an ice mage. This ale is ice cold and amazing.” If he only knew about the fridge that Battery had made. “Tell me what you have come up with.”

  “I have the parts and materials to make the tables and the Dolls so I won’t be trading. That being said, I am willing to sell both to you. How many of each would you like?” I asked with an evil smile. He just sat there blinking at me, his two chins wagging. This was fun.

  “You can make tables too?” I nodded with a slight smug look on my face. “How much?” He asked, slapping the table.

  “You talked about selling them for a small mithril. I know you need meat on the bone to make it worth it so let’s say seventy a table.” I said sitting back a little.

  “Sixty and I need seven.” He said, his drink now fully forgotten.

  “Sixty-five a table and three a Doll.” I countered.

  “Deal. How many Dolls can you make?” I had enough mana wire on hand to make about fifty, but I needed to leave some for myself. It was going to be fall soon after all. That didn’t seem right. It should be winter. Maybe summers were longer here? Maybe this world was colder, and I was near the equator. I shook my head, getting back on topic. Wait, I was using Boss’s mana wire and metal. He had a literal ton. I would need some of that for my wolf and doing some quick math, I could easily make a hundred and still have enough for my wolf and Dolls at home.

  “One hundred.” I said proudly. He gulped in shock as he quickly downed his drink.

  “I could pay for five tables and fifty Dolls. How long will it take you?” He said, his eyes wide. I shrugged. “I can extend my stay to a month if you need the time.”

  “A month? It will only take me a few days to knock them out.” I said with an evil laugh. He just sat there, blinking.

  “Days?” He asked and I started to worry as the fat man’s heart might give out. I nodded and went back to the shop. If I was going to make some coin, why not start as soon as I could. At least this would help me pass the time while they were here.

  I wasn’t wrong, with the small engine it didn’t take that long at all to make five blank tables and fifty blank Dolls. Everything was finished by the time the caravan was ready to leave. I was standing over my work with my arms crossed as Double Chin came up to me beaming. He had the pilots test a few and rubbed his hands together. “You are true to your word and the quality,” He trailed off, licking his lips. “If you ever want to do this again, please reach out.” He handed me four small mithril coins. “The extra is for the expedience and as a sign of good faith. You are a true master of your craft. Could you make a mark on the table and Dolls so I can say these were made by the Toy Maker?” He asked as though he might offend me. I tapped a part of the table pointing out a small scratch that looked like a howling wolf’s head. I had used that symbol in school and always thought of it as my evil emblem.

  “The same mark is under the right heel of each of the Dolls.” With my reputation growing, having a mark seemed like a good idea. I gave two of the coins to a very happy Boss and asked him to order more iron, a large bar of Silversteel, some gold and a lot more mana wire. Sadly I had been too tired to play with Lily or spend time with Gen, Uta or the others. Orthonai was teaching me a little orc each morning and Gen had started getting in on it. Gorloth was surprised at first, but delighted to join in learning a bit of common at the same time. He had even started teaching me a little orc as we walked home together. It had become a wonderful way to pass the time.

  With the caravan gone, I headed home fully happy that I would be working on my wolf again in the morning. Tonight though, I had other plans. After supper and everyone was winding down for the night, I pulled Lily aside. “I need you to go to our room, disrobe and lay on the bed?” I said as I kissed her. She bit her lip and blushed badly, hiding her eyes a little, she nodded. On opening the door, I saw my bunny stretched out and more than a little nervous as she lay under the covers. Tonight was going to be fun. I thought evilly as I moved to the dresser.

  “Master, the moon isn’t full yet?” She said with a cute blush on her adorable face.

  “I know, I have something else in mind.” I said as I pulled out the half-used bottle of lotion. I was careful with it and only used it when I had to. “Also please remind me to ask someone if they can make more of this.” I said holding up the bottle. She nodded but looked away.

  “What is that?” she asked, a worried look on her face.

  “Lay on your stomach.” Her collar glowed and she did so, a bit shocked and scared. Like hell I would ever hurt this amazing woman. I would have to show her that I was someone she never had to fear. I pulled back the covers and oiled up my hands. Starting with the feet, I rubbed making her moan with delight.

  “Master, what are you doing to me?” she gasped as I made my way up to her calves. I took my time hitting every group and making sure she was like Jello in my hands. My Lily writhed and moaned as I worked on her. She would learn I was the last person she ever had to fear. Her back was tight, and shoulders were in complete knots, but I was able to work them all out. Her collar prevented me from doing her neck properly and once more I wished I could just rip it off her and set her free. She was my slave, but could she ever be more to me? Would she want to be more to me? Doubt creeped into my heart as I worked. I heard a soft snoring and looked down to see she had passed out. It made me smile and warmed my heart. For now, she was mine and I was happy to have her. Undressing, I got into bed with her. I didn’t want the lotion to stain my clothing and make a bigger mess. That and I wanted to feel her soft skin against my own. Pulling her to become my little spoon, she pulled my arm to her belly and the two of us fell into a deep sleep.

  {Uta}

  Uta couldn’t sleep. The house was quiet. Gen was tucked into her side and snoring. She got up and walked around the house in the dark, her natural night vision making everything clear. The smell coming from Master’s room was amazing and why she couldn’t sleep. It was the smell of arousal and something floral. She opened the door and saw him wrapped around that bunny. Why was there no sex smell and what was that flower smell? Both were nude and she felt her own need ache at her. It smelled so good, and they both looked so tasty. She entered slowly, careful not to wake them. He was wrapped around that cute bunny and a twinge of jealousy hit Uta. Did she want him to hold her like that or was it that she wanted Lily? Maybe if she was in the middle, she could have the best of both worlds. She wondered what that would feel like. Biting her lip, she looked towards her own bed. Gen was sleeping deep and would be out until morning. She lost her inhibitions as she looked around. The bunny’s ears twitched in her sleep, and she moved closer to him.

  Carefully she pulled off her nightgown and underwear and slid into the bed in front of Lily. She didn’t wake up and her hands pulled her in close. Lily reached out in her sleep and clung to Uta. Her heart started to race as she looked at the beautiful woman that was now so close. Why did Lily smell so good? It seemed to be leaking from her soft skin. She ran her hands down Lily’s side and brushed their Master’s arms. He moved and Uta froze. Would he wake up and yell at her, punish her? He did say she was welcome to join them and take her first time. He moved his arms and pulled her into Lily. This was too close. If only they were awake. Blushing, she moved and kissed Lily lightly. Lily smiled in her sleep and tucked her head under Uta’s chin. Master’s arm rubbed Uta’s back and her own need seemed to settle as she enjoyed how loving he was being with her. It felt like they were a family and Uta badly needed this man in her life. Both were so warm, and she felt happy and safe. How had she gotten so lucky? He was training Gen, teaching him to read and write, teaching him Orc and how to use magic. How was her master so perfect? She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep holding the two she loved with all her heart.

  {Alex}

  I felt a small hand slapping my ass and woke and rolled over slightly to see Gen. Luckily my manhood was still tucked into Lily, so the boy didn’t have to see that. “Hey, can you give us a little to get ready?” I said with a yawn. He nodded and walked out. Where was Uta? Normally she would be looking after him. Oh, she is on the other side of Lily. I froze as my eyes went wide. Why was she on the other side of Lily? WHY WAS SHE NAKED? Fuck me running. When did this happen? I gulped. And looked around my eyes bugging out a little. I don’t remember having sex with either last night. Lily gave an enticing moan in her sleep and pulled me back in. Not good. Gen had just seen the three us them naked in the same bed. Lily started rubbing her bare ass against my dick and I tried not to get aroused.

  Safe to say, I failed badly. She started moaning and rubbing as she moved her head to Uta’s breasts. Not good at all. I gulped again, not sure if Uta was going to wake up at any moment and start screaming at us. What if she wanted to join us this morning? The thought of a threesome would be an epic way to wake up but given that Gen was awake and could walk back in would not be good. To make things far worse, Uta was biting her lip and grinding against Lily. I carefully pulled out from around Lily and quietly got dressed, careful not to wake the excited women. I would have to explore this issue later. God, I prayed there would be a later for this issue. With a very longing look at the writhing women, I left the room, closing the door carefully. Gen was sitting in his room playing with blocks. “How did you sleep?” I asked and he smiled up at me. He was such a good boy.

  “Good.” He said with a nod.

  “Really, I slept with my eyes closed.” I said using an old joke my father would tell me when I was little. He laughed and smiled, raising his arms up to me. “What woke you?” I asked as I took him to my office. Orthonai would be here in a while, so we had time to kill.

  “Big sis Uta gone.” Poor kid needed to sleep next to someone. I can’t blame him as I loved sleeping next to Lily and waking up to Uta in bed with us was a treat. “Or not here.” He said sniffing the air.

  “Give her some time. It’s still too early. Do you want to play on the training table?” I asked. He beamed and nodded, hugging my neck. I took him to my now fully functional table. It had two controllers and I wondered if I could find him a friend to play with. He sat in his chair raised up so he could reach and see everything. We had set blocks in the area, and he loved building things with his Doll. I was right, the lad had almost made Minecraft on his table. While he played, I tinkered and worked on a new Doll. It was a nice relaxing morning, I just wished I had a threesome to wake up to, but much like my women, that would cum in time.
