Chapter 34: Clarity and Clear Minds

It was early morning when Saya awoke. She gave a little moan of discomfort as she sat up in the bed or tried to as she felt something heavy weighing her down. Rubbing her eyes, Saya wondered what it might that was on top of her. With slightly clearer vision, Saya's orange eyes went wide with surprise as saw to either side of her were Aegon and Saeko. And they were both naked. Saya looked at herself and realised that she was fully nude too.

Then came the memories of last night flooding the pinkette's mind. "That happened," she mumbled to herself in surprise. Her cheeks flushing red with embarrassment as the very vivid details of last night's nocturnal activities paraded in her mind, Saya bit her lip as she strangely felt her womanhood grow warm and moist. Fighting the sudden urge to touch herself, Saya lay back on the bed and glanced at Aegon and Saeko who were still fast asleep. Looking at Saeko, Saya almost had to suppress a guffaw at seeing the samurai drooling in her sleep.

It was almost cute in a way, Saya thought to herself, watching Saeko sleep like a toddler, drooling from an open mouth. Looking at Aegon, Saya giggled quietly as she heard his soft snores. Wondering whether she would wake them both up, the pinkette made to get out of the bed, but she felt Aegon and Saeko suddenly tighten their grip on her, keeping her pinned between them.

"Egg? Saeko? Wake up, its morning," she whispered to them and only received a snore in response. Wriggling around so that she was facing Saeko, Saya wondered how she could wake the sleeping samurai. Giving an experimental poke of Saeko's shoulder, Saya tried to rouse the older girl from her slumber. Saeko mumbled in her sleep and tossed about a little. Sighing to herself in frustration, Saya grasped the samurai's arm and shook her and Saeko just another mumbled and rolled over so that her back was facing Saya.

Suppressing an irritated sigh, Saya then decided that it was time for a firmer approach. Reeling her hand back, Saya then gave Saeko's backside a firm slap to the taut round cheek.

With a yelp of alarm and pain, Saeko started awake, looking around wildly. Sitting up, the samurai looked panicked and alert, looking around for an attacker. "Wha-what?! Wazzgoinon?" she blurted out, her voice thick with sleep.

"Good morning, Miss Busujima," Saya said with a thin smile and Saeko turned around to look.

"Ah. Saya? Good morning," the samurai replied as she relaxed on the bed. "How long have you been awake?" she asked sleepily.

"A few minutes," Saya told her. "Long enough to remember the details about last night," she said with a blush on her face.

"I see." Saeko had a flushed look on her expression before she asked, "Was it your first time?"

"It was," Saya confirmed. "And I never imaged I would have a threesome at the same time as well," she said with a bashful smile.

"Well, it was my first time having a threesome as well," Saeko said with a light laugh. "But I couldn't have imagined it better," she said with a pleased grin.

"Yeah," Saya agreed. "You and Aegon were very giving and generous. I got lucky, I suppose," she said.

"So, is your head clearer now?" Saeko enquired. "Is your desire for Aegon quenched?"

Saya shook her head reluctantly and replied, "No. If anything, it makes me want more of him." A slightly sad look came over the pink-haired genius's face as she looked at the indigo-haired samurai and said, "Is this the part where you tell to stay away from your boyfriend?"

Saeko smiled kindly and said to her, "No. It isn't. I think we both know that Aegon cares about us both, and I would never force him to choose, because he would fight for us both."

"So, what do we do?" Saya asked. "I've never had a romantic relationship before. I know Kohta has asked me out multiple times in the past before, but I've always turned him down. But with Aegon, I dunno, I feel like it's different with him," she stated.

"Well, there is one idea we could try," Saeko said slowly as if giving the matter careful consideration.

"And what is this idea of yours?" Saya asked.

"How would you feel about sharing?" Saeko asked looking very serious.

"Sharing? You mean sharing your boyfriend with me?" Saya looked at Saeko in utter surprise.

"Exactly that," Saeko confirmed with a nod of her. "We both have very strong feelings for Egg, for various reasons, and neither of us would give him up for anything, so we could perhaps learn to share him," she explained.

"How would it even work?" Saya asked sounding sceptical. "You get him on days that begin with a T and I get on days with an S?"

"We'll working something out," Saeko said confidently. "We'd have to get Egg's personal opinion before trying anything first," she added knowingly.

"Yeah, and I vaguely remember him talking about an ancestor of his who had multiple women," Saya mused and she looked at the still slumbering Aegon. "But I think we wore Aegon out," she said giving a little laugh. "Who knew he had that much stamina and fortitude in him?" she added with a blush heating her cheeks.

"Indeed," Saeko purred. "Not to mention the size of his sword," she said as a lewd joke.

Saya gave a giggle and said, "Yeah, I initially thought that when I first met him that he was compensating for something, but after that dream I had of him and actually seeing in person? I think it's safe to say his sword is actually a representation."

"Why, Saya, who knew you had such a lewd mind?" Saeko joked.

"I blame you and Egg for that," Saya said poking her tongue out. Saeko gave a laugh before pulling the genius in close and kissed her on the lips. Saya stiffened up at feeling Saeko's soft yet strong supple lips on her, but she decided to go with it and grasped the samurai's firm round buttocks, pulling herself in closer and kissed the older girl back more firmly. Saeko's hands weren't idle as they ran themselves all over the pinkette's body making her moan and quiver a little.

The kiss lasted a few moments before Saeko pulled with a gentle nip to Saya's bottom lip. "What brought that on?" Saya asked a blush staining her cheeks. "Not that I'm complaining, but I'm curious," she added.

"Well, since we might be sharing Aegon, we might as well learn to love each other as well," Saeko said with a warm smile. "Is that okay with you?" she then asked looking a little nervous, worried that she might've overstepped her bounds.

Saya gave a playful little grin before pressing her lips to the samurai's and took charge this time. Rolling on top of Saeko, the genius pinned her wrists above her head and kissed deeply on the lips, her tongue swiping across the older girl's own, asking or rather demanding entrance. Caught off guard by the sudden display of dominance, Saeko allowed Saya entrance; Saya's tongue then thrust her into the samurai's mouth, coaxing her tongue into action. With a needy moan, Saeko's tongue wrestled Saya's tasting and feeling each other.

Saya felt herself grow warm and wet between her thighs and she felt a wet spot on her knee where it rested between Saeko's. Smiling to herself, the pink-haired intellectual continued to kiss and taste Saeko, keeping her wrists pinned above her cranium.

Then someone spoke, catching the two girls by surprise. "Well, this is a sight to wake up to." Saya and Saeko looked off to the side to see Aegon awake with an amused grin pulling at his lips. He was sitting up a little, using his elbows and forearms to prop himself up as he watched the two girls. "Enjoying yourselves?" he asked them conversationally.

"How long were you awake?" Saya blurted out feeling very embarrassed at being caught in such a position with Saeko, a girl no less.

"Long enough to feel left out," Aegon said with a chuckle. "A night with both of you and it seems you two can't keep your hands off each other," he added as he sat up higher so that his back rested against the headboard. "Makes me wonder if you're both going to dump me and run off with each other into the sunset," he mused.

Saeko gave a laugh as she freed herself of Saya's grip and sat up as well, her breasts now bared to her boyfriend. "Don't worry, Egg. We still love and want you with us," she told him.

"Well, that is comforting to hear," Aegon said with a princely smile. He then looked at Saya and asked, "How are you feeling, Lady Saya? Not too sore or tired after last night?"

With the blush on her cheeks growing deeper, Saya bowed her and replied, "A little sore, but I feel… great after last night." She the looked up at Aegon, looking directly at him and said, "Saeko and I were talking about last night, and she made a very interesting proposition."

"Oh? What kind of proposition?" Aegon enquired, raising an eyebrow, wondering what his girlfriend had suggested to Saya.

"Well, just hear us out first before making any judgements," Saeko warned him. "After last night's activities, Saya's feelings remain unchanged. They've only grown stronger now," she explained. "And I know you might have some misgivings, but I made the suggestion that Saya and I could perhaps… share you?" she ventured.

"Share?" Aegon raised an eyebrow at this.

"Only if you want to," Saeko quickly said to him. "It might not be the most conventional idea, but neither Saya and I want to give you up, and we both know you care about both of us a great deal. So, that's why I made the suggestion."

"I… Gods… I don't know what to say," Aegon mumbled as he seemed pensive about the idea.

"Like Saeko, it's not the most conventional idea, and we know you might have a few misgivings about it, but we could perhaps give a trial run. See where it leads and if it pans out," Saya stated. "If it doesn't look like it's going to work, we'll try something else," she then said.

Aegon took in a deep breath before replying, "Alright. I suppose we can give this idea a trial run." Saeko and Saya both smiled, relieved that Aegon wasn't refuting the idea outright. "But let me say that I feel like this is going to be the oddest relationship any of us have had in our lives," he then said.

"Did one of your ancestors have more than one woman in their life?" Saeko asked.

"Two that come to mind; Aegon the Conqueror and his sister-wives Visenya and Rhaenys, then Aegon the Unworthy who had seven mistresses and claimed to have slept with nine-hundred women in his life," Aegon replied. "The Conqueror was able to make his marriages work somewhat, whereas the Unworthy was just a lecherous whoremongering bastard that somehow got to be king," he said grimly.

"Well, at least we know you're not like the Unworthy," Saeko said to her boyfriend with a smile.

"But for how long?" Aegon said darkly.

Saya smiled kindly before reaching across and pulled her new boyfriend in for a kiss. Aegon was a little surprised by this, but he didn't resist as Saya kissed him firmly on the lips. Saya then pulled away with a warm smile on her lips and a soft look in her eyes. Aegon smiled warmly back and Saeko too then pulled him in for a kiss. Saeko and Saya then looked at each other and pulled Aegon into their arms with Saeko kissing him on the mouth, while Saya ran her soft hands down his honed chest, pulling off the bedcovers leaving him bare naked to them.

"Uh, girls? Is now a good time to…?" Aegon tried to say when Saeko cut him with a deep kiss, before pulling away with an intense look in her deep blue eyes.

"This is something you're going to have to get used to, my love," she purred out, her throat going an octave lower, making her voice sound more throaty and sensual.

"But what about-" Aegon began to say when he suddenly felt something hot and wet envelop his cock. Giving a choked gasp and his eyes rolling in his head, Aegon then surrendered himself to the loving ministrations of his two girlfriends who were intent on satisfying their man and themselves.

…

An hour later, Aegon, Saeko and Saya meandered into the great hall. Aegon had a slightly dazed expression on his features whereas Saeko and Saya looked extremely satisfied although their gait was slightly bowlegged.

"There you three are! Where have you been?" Cerys an Craite walked up to them, a miffed looking expression on her face. "I spent all night looking after Alice! What were you doing the whole night?" she demanded.

"Erm… something," Aegon mumbled out.

Cerys looked at the pleased grins on Saeko and Saya's faces before it clicked in her head. Throwing her hands to her now red cheeks, her mouth going agape, she said, "You didn't!"

"Yeah…" Saya said with a nervous but giddy smile. "It was a long night," she added.

"By the Goddess!" Cerys muttered in bewilderment. She then coughed into her hand and said, "Well, I hope you enjoyed yourselves last night, you missed out on a bit."

"What did we miss?" Aegon asked.

"Well, the claimants made their claim to the throne," Cerys replied. "As did I," she said after a moment.

"Well, I hope you succeed in your feat to prove yourself, Lady Cerys," Saeko then said to Cerys graciously. "If you require any help, then don't hesitate to ask," she offered.

Cerys smiled and said, "Thank ye for the offer, Lady Saeko. Perhaps I may take you up on that offer." Then a more serious look came over her and she added, "Lady Yennefer has already set out on some errand, and Geralt asked me to send you two to the blacksmith's. Your armour's ready apparently."

"Thank you, my lady," Aegon said with a bow of his head. "And pray tell, where is Ser Geralt?" he enquired.

"He's in the harbour town, waiting for you," Cerys said. "Apparently you and Lady Saeko are going to be helping him around the Isles. Is that true?" she asked.

"It is," Saeko confirmed. "We need to raise money to hire a ship to take us to Novigrad where our friends may still be. And Geralt said that once his business in Skellige is finished he'll be heading back to Novigrad and offered us a chance to work with him to raise the money we need," she explained.

"Ah, so you're both Witchers in training now? Or at least apprentices," Cerys remarked humorously.

"In a way, I suppose we are," Aegon said with a shrug of his shoulders. "But I suppose we haven't any other way of raising the coin we need to get to Novigrad," he added.

"Well, good luck to ye both. You'll need it," Cerys said to them sagely.

"Saya! Egg! Saeko!" Barrelling into Saya's midriff, nearly knocking her over was Alice.

"Hey, Munchkin," Saya said to the little girl fondly, rubbing the top of her head. "Sorry we took so long last night. We had a lot to talk about," she explained.

"It's okay, Saya, I forgive you," Alice with a happy smile. "So, what we do now?" she asked.

"Well, Saeko and I are going to get our new armour then we're going to meet with Geralt," Aegon replied. "Meanwhile, you and Saya will stay here and keep out of trouble," he said.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Saya asked irately. "You're acting as if you and Saeko are going to leave us here and do all the hard work!" she spat out angrily.

"I wouldn't say that, per se," Aegon tried to say but Saya got right in his face and hissed to him, "If you think I'm going to sit on the sidelines the whole time, then you've got another thing coming! Do you hear me!?"

Aegon sighed heavily at this, feeling as though he had said the wrong thing. So he opted to say, "I shan't say that you are incapable, but have you any real skill with weapons?" he asked her which caused her to blink in surprise. "And Alice is too young to partake in an actual fight. Saeko and I are the only ones out of us with any real training and experiences," he explained.

"I get that, but Alice and I can't just sit around twiddling our thumbs waiting and wondering if you two will come back alive or at all," Saya protested. She then gave a triumphant smile and said, "Besides, I could simply withhold certain things if you make me and Alice sit on the sidelines."

Aegon sighed and looked at Saeko who gave a weak smile and nodded. Looking back at Saya, Aegon relented. "Very well. Saeko and I will take you along with us, but if there is any fighting to be had, I want you and Alice to stay as far back as humanly possible. I don't want to lose either of you to a bandit or monster. I don't think I could bear the thought of something happening to either of you," he said.

"Good." Saya then pressed a swift kiss to Aegon's lips and smiled. "Shall we get going?" she asked.

"Lets." Saeko was already heading out of the great hall and Aegon, Saya and Alice quickly followed after the samurai.

Reaching the blacksmith's, Saeko and Aegon were greeted by the armourer who gave a crooked grin upon seeing them. "Ah, both awake at last. Got yer armour waiting for ye both. Try it on and see if anything pinches and needs to be loosened," he suggested to them.

Waiting on a nearby bench were the Cat School and Griffin School armour sets waiting for Saeko and Aegon. Saeko lifted up the Cat School armour and felt the mixture of leather and fabric. "What is this made of?" she asked the armourer.

"It's made from hardened leather taken from monster hides, dark steel metal, reinforced with powdered monster tissue and quenched in monster's blood," the man said to her.

"Monster's blood? What effect doe that even have?" Saeko asked as she examined her new armour.

"Monsters ain't natural beasties and the parts you can harvest from them have strange and unique properties that can be used to forge arms and armour," the armoured explained. "Why don't you try it on? See if they fit ye both," he said.

Quickly dressing in their new armour, Aegon and Saeko looked at each other. Aegon looked at his girlfriend with surprise; he knew that Saeko was a trained fighter/swordswoman, but this was the first time he'd seen her in actual armour. And needless to say, the armour fit her like a well-made glove; the reinforced leather and padded cloth seemed to hug and emphasize her natural curves and the gambeson pushed her breasts up higher, making her appear curvier than usual.

"Wow! You look amazing, Aunty Saeko!" Alice said to Saeko who smiled bashfully at the compliment.

"Yeah! Who'd have thought you could rock medieval armour so well," Saya put in. "What do you think, Egg?" she asked looking at Aegon who was silent.

"Egg?" Aegon gave a startled movement before stammering out, "You-You look… lovely, Saeko."

"And you look very dashing," Saeko said to him with a smile. "Doesn't he?" she asked looking at Saya and Alice.

"Yeah, you look like a knight errant about to go on a quest to rescue a princess or something," Saya remarked.

Aegon smiled bashfully and replied, "I need no princess to rescue. I already have you and Saeko, and I'd rather someone who knows how to take care of themselves than some prissy spoilt princess who hasn't lifted anything heavier than a spook or quill in their life."

"Are you sweet talking us?" Saeko asked her boyfriend with a raised eyebrow.

"Perhaps." A boyish smile was on Aegon's lips when he said this.

"Well, in any case, it's time we meet with Geralt and get under way," Saeko then said. She looked at the armour and thanked the man who nodded and went back to his work.

Mounting their horses, Aegon, Saeko, Saya and Alice rode for the harbour town where the Witcher would be waiting for them.

TO BE CONTINUED…

A/N: There! The thirty-fourth chapter of this story is done and dusted! I hope you all enjoyed it and I know it was just a filler chapter, but next chapter we'll see some action with Aegon and Saeko helping Geralt out with a monster contract. Of course, Geralt will have some concerns over Saya and Alice going with them, but I have the idea that Saya is the one who negotiates with clients on their behalf, making sure they get a good deal and don't get shafted when time comes to pay.

And now we've got Aegon, Saeko and Saya deciding to give the idea of a polyamorous relationship a shot, or at least a trial run. I can only imagine what might happen when the rest of the crew finds out, especially Kohta since he's had a crush on Saya for a the longest time, but then again, he does have something good going with Asami, so perhaps he wouldn't be as upset and keep in mind, than in the beginning Saya wasn't all that receptive to Kohta's advances, turning him down whenever he's asked her out. Of course that sorta changed in the canon series as both Kohta and Saya sorta-kinda had a relationship and even became surrogate parents for Alice, but we'll see how this goes.

In other news, I've got the idea of an Elder Scrolls/Buffy the Vampire Slayer crossover on the brain and I've already got the title worked out: The Last Dragonborn and the Dark Slayer. If you haven't already figured it out, I'll be using Faith as the main character alongside the Dragonborn/Dovahkiin. And I've set up a voting poll on my profile as to what the setting could be, so feel free to put in your two cents. I'll see what the results when it gets up to ten of fifteen voters before stopping it and just go with the whatever's the most popular choice.

And that's about all I have right now, so I'll leave this here and see you all in the next one.

Be kind to one another,

Angry lil' elf.
