Alpha World Book One: Gamer for Life

by Daniel Schinhofen

  “Welcome to Alburet's room. Be ya Karen?” Stacia asked her, eyes flickering over the small woman as a smile formed on her face.

  Karen looked at Stacia with a raised brow, glancing at Alburet briefly before addressing Stacia. “Yes, I’m Karen. Who might you be?”

  “My name be Stacia. I be Alburet's personal maid while he stays with us here. Please, come in and be welcomed as the sir desires.” She ushered Karen into the room.

  Alburet got to his feet as Karen entered, bowing to her. “Good to see you again, Karen. You look amazing in that dress. Please come in and have some tea, dinner will be along shortly.” He pulled a chair out for her.

  Lips quirked in an expression he couldn't read Karen nodded, taking the offered seat as he pushed her chair in for her. He was about to pour her a cup of tea but Stacia had come back to the table by then and was doing it already, so he took his seat again.

  “I'll be back in a few minutes with the food, sir,” Stacia said, curtsying.

  “So, a personal maid?” Karen asked as Stacia left the room.

  “It kind of happened, yeah,” Alburet chuckled slightly, feeling a touch nervous for some reason.

  “Just had to keep her close after the massage, right?”

  “Actually, she asked for the arrangement,” he replied. “Having a personal maid was eight times as expensive as the room for the month. If you're up for it after dinner though I can have her rub you down.”

  A small laugh escaped Karen as she shook her head, “You just want me naked in your room.”

  “Well, that is part of it. Also, watching her rubbing you down does have an appeal to me.” Alburet said with a chuckle, deciding he might as well be completely honest with her. “It’s your choice, of course. We could also make use of the baths in the building. If you haven't had a bath in game yet you should try it at least once.”

  “So you want me naked, wet and in easy reach?” Her eyes were sparkling with laughter.

  He was about to reply when he caught the hint of heat in her eyes. He let his smile broaden, “It has a very firm appeal to me, I won't deny it.”

  Karen was about to reply when the door opened, admitting Stacia along with one of her sisters carrying two trays each. Stacia’s youngest sister followed with two bottles and three goblets in hand. The trio of sisters quickly set the table, then the other two left leaving Stacia in the room.

  “Dinner is ready sir,” Stacia said, removing the covers from the platters. Before them sat steaming bowls of stew and two loaves of bread. “Tonight ya be havin' the best stew in the inn, me Ma's special recipe. The drink be a good wine that will complement the stew.” She opened one of the bottles and poured wine into two goblets before stepping back.

  Shaking his head Alburet, turned to her and pointed at a chair, “You will be joining us, Stacia. Why do you think I had a meal for three prepared?”

  Stacia stood her ground, refusing to look at him, “It would nay be right.”

  “I do not care one whit, sit and eat with us. That is an order.” His voice became steel as he spoke.

  Slowly she came forward and sat down, pouring herself some wine. Her voice was meek, “As ya wish it, sir.”

  “Wow, you do have a firm side,” Karen murmured. “I think tonight is going to be more fun than I’d thought.”

  Glancing at her, Alburet raised a brow, “Oh? Do you like a man who can take control, then?”

  “Only if they prove they can tame me,” Karen replied with a smirk, “I recall you failing at that a lot today.”

  Absently rubbing at one of the spots where she’d bruised him during the sparring earlier, he nodded once, “True, but I did manage it once.”

  Conversation faded as they dug into the stew. Alburet's eyes widened as the flavor permeated his mouth. It held a touch of sweetness that blended perfectly with the spice that was beginning to warm his mouth. He took a second bite and the heat begin to spread throughout his face.

  “It's spicy, but not overbearing. That touch of sweet makes you want another bite,” Alburet said, taking a third bite.

  “This is the best stew I've had,” Karen added. “Beef with barley is the base, but I have no idea what seasonings are in it.”

  “Ma will nay even tell us, sayin' she will only tell once we find a man to settle down with.” Stacia said softly, nibbling a chunk of bread between bites of the stew. “If the heat gets too much eat the bread.”

  Alburet broke a chunk off the bread, setting it beside his bowl as he took his fourth bite of stew. He could feel heat spreading through his body by then. “Does the heat keep growing?”

  “Aye, like the fires of hell,” Stacia said softly. “Me Da can't even finish a bowl without bread, and he’s been eating this dish for years.”

  Karen took a bite of bread, “Wow, it really does ramp up. This is wonderful. The bread quenches the heat in the mouth then spreads to the rest like the stew did.”

  Alburet took another bite of stew as he gauged how many more bites were in the bowl. Fifth bite in and he hadn't made a noticeable dent in the serving. Now the heat made him start to perspire. He wiped the sweat from his brow and took another bite.

  Stacia eyed him nervously, “Sir, ya should nay push ya self like that.”

  Karen chimed in, “I agree with Stacia, Alburet. It wouldn't do for you to be unable to enjoy the rest of the night.”

  Alburet was about to take another bite of the stew, doggedly determined to see how much he could stand, then glanced at the women. With a sigh he put down the spoon and took a bite of bread instead. Stacia let out a relieved sigh, her hand dropping under the table to squeeze his thigh once.

  The meal continued with minimal talk, each of them enjoying the stew. Alburet discovered the wine didn't affect the heat from the stew at all. It did however add a whole different flavor to the stew which seemed to help emphasis the sweetness. The flavors mingled like two lovers in the throes of ecstasy.

  When they finished Alburet sat back, sipping the wine in his goblet as he nibbled the last of his bread. “Wow, I really need to make sure your mother is compensated for that meal. I would easily rank it in the top five meals I've ever eaten in either world.”

  Lips pursed, Karen nodded slowly, “Top five might be a bit much, but easily the top ten. Top five is hard to beat out but it surely gives them a run for it.”

  “I will pass along ya kind words to her,” Stacia said as she sipped her own wine. “A question, sir. Why did ya invite me to join the meal?”

  Karen showed interested in his answer, as well. Alburet replied. “Honestly, Stacia, it just felt right. Where I come from most people don't have personal maids and it just seemed wrong to not include you. I will ask you to join me in all the meals I take while I am here, probably.”

  They finished the wine before Alburet spoke again, addressing Karen. “So, you little mynx, did you want to take a bath then have Stacia rub you down?”

  Karen looked at Stacia for a moment, “Stacia, are you willing?”

  Stacia met Karen's eyes for a moment before a smile crept across her lips. “Aye, miss. I will gladly serve ya as me sir wishes.”

  Alburet coughed gently, “Well then, a bath first then back here for a massage. Stacia, if you’ll show her to the bath I’ll be along in a moment.”

  He followed them out of the room, but went downstairs to the packed taproom. He elbowed his way to the bar, catching Alistern's attention. When he came over Alburet dropped a gold on the bar, “My companion and I will be using the bathing room. This is to make all my meals are doubled. Stacia will be joining me when I eat.”

  Alistern picked up the gold with a nod, his eyes drilling into Alburet. “Do not lead me girl astray, Summoner. If ya hurt her I will be most upset.”

  “My word that I will not, Alistern,” Alburet replied firmly before turning and going back upstairs to the bathing room.

  Stacia met him at the door of the bathing room, “Please go in, sir. I be right behind ya.”

  En
tering, he saw Karen seated under a shower with her eyes closed, letting the water run over her body. Alburet watched the water wash over her small form, noting her toned muscles with interest. He stripped off his own clothing, taking the spot next to Karen and grabbed the chain to allow warm water to wash over him. When he released the chain after a couple of minutes, Stacia was also naked, kneeling behind Karen scrubbing her back while humming a soft tune.

  Karen seemed relaxed as Stacia’s hands moved along her back. Neither woman seemed to notice Alburet sitting right there. Stacia leaned in and whispered into Karen’s ear which prompted Karen to stand up, allowing Stacia to start on the toned legs before her. She scrubbed both the front and back as Karen stood there before she softly asked Karen to sit back down. Once Karen was reseated Stacia leaned in, pressing her breasts into Karen’s back as she whispered to her. Karen shivered slightly at whatever was said, leaning back into Stacia.

  Stacia looked over at Alburet, her eyes smoldering with desire as her hands gently reached around and began to scrub Karen’s chest. As Alburet’s eyes went from Stacia’s eyes to the sight of one beauty rubbing the other he felt himself stiffen. A wicked smile came to Stacia’s lips and she gently pinched Karen’s nipples, which pulled a soft moan from Karen, before her hands traveled down the flat stomach. Alburet felt his pulse begin to increase as he watched the show, his breathing becoming shallower as his excitement increased.

  A moment later Stacia pulled her hands away from Karen after one more squeeze of the smaller woman’s breast, then gently eased Karen back into an upright position. Whispering to Karen one more time Stacia got off her knees, walking around in front of Karen and pulling the chain bringing warm water down on them both. Karen seemed to rouse slightly at that point, her eyes locking onto the naked beauty before her. Stacia grinned down at Karen before taking the other’s hand and putting it on the chain. Once Karen had the chain Stacia leaned down and kissed her gently before pulling back.

  Alburet shivered at how erotic the women looked. He closed his eyes, taking a deep shuddering breath as he tried to calm his excitement. When he opened them Karen was turned to face him on her seat as he felt Stacia push her naked body against him from behind. He swallowed hard as he felt himself stiffen fully from just that contact and the previous show.

  “It be ya turn now, sir,” Stacia whispered softly into his ear, her voice eager.

  Alburet found his gaze drawn to Karen, who was watching him, her eyes full of desire. Stacia began to hum the same tune she had with Karen earlier as her hands and breasts began to rub the soap onto his naked body. Alburet felt his mind grow a little fuzzy as Stacia scrubbed him, he was focused on the woman soaping him and the one across from him who was gently tugging on her hard nipples as she watched them. Stacia leaned into his back as her hands as she began to scrub his chest.

  As she ran her hands over his chest she whispered into his ear, “I be just going to clean ya sir, just like last time.” Her words were a silken purr as her hands grasped him firmly, stroking his manhood once.

  A growl emerged from his throat as she stroked him twice more, then her hands vanished. A moment later she stood before him, her entire front coated with suds, tugging on the chain to bring water cascading down over them both. Alburet felt some of his stupor fall away as he watched Stacia rinse the soap from herself. Her hands lingered on her chest and again between her legs. When she placed his hand on the chain he held onto it and blinked, feeling his head clear as if coming out of a daze. Stacia had returned to Karen, leading her by the hand to the big tub, which prompted Alburet to hurriedly rinse the rest of the soap off his body.

  He walked over to the tub as Karen sank into the hot water with a happy sigh. Wrapping his arms around Stacia, he nibbled her neck, “You little wench. Working both me and her into an overly excited state like that.”

  Stacia let out a soft moan as she pressed her ass back into his stiff cock, “Did ya nay enjoy the show or me hands, sir?”

  A dark chuckle came from his lips as he pulled her with him into the tub. He settled into one of the contoured seats, holding her to his chest the whole time. “Of course I enjoyed it, but now I think turnabout is fair play. Oh, Karen?”

  Karen glided over to them with a wicked gleam in her eyes, “Oh, I agree with you Alburet.” Without missing a beat Karen joined in with Alburet as their hands roamed over the shapely body he held to him.

  Stacia moaned as the duo worked her body over with precision then gasping as Alburet let one arm slide down to hold her a bit lower than the waist. He didn’t let his fingers invade her, but the heel of his palm was right against her lower lips which meant every time he moved his hand her clit would be stimulated just enough to tease. They toyed with her in such a fashion for what seemed like hours to her, but was closer to half an hour.

  Alburet finally released her, much to her regret as she had found a way to rock against his hand to increase her own pleasure. “Time to go back to the room, don’t you agree Karen?” he asked with a smirk at Stacia’s obvious disappointment.

  “Oh, I agree. Time to really celebrate, right?”

  Alburet and Karen climbed out of the tub, snagging two towels and drying off quickly while Stacia tried to gather her own thoughts. They’d donned the robes Stacia had laid out by the time she gathered her wits, looking at her with amusement. “Sorry, be coming right now…” she started, but Karen quickly interjected.

  “Not yet, but give me a few minutes in the room and you will be.”

  Stacia got out of the tub, reaching for a towel only to have it pulled out of her reach. Alburet and Karen pounced on her from either side, wrapping her up in their towels instead. Stacia preened at the attention, disappointed when they stopped and held out a robe to her.

  A minute later they’d all returned to Alburet’s room. No sooner had the door closed behind Alburet than Karen was pulling her robe off, letting it fall to the floor. She eagerly threw herself onto the bed face down before stretching. Looking back over her shoulder, she smiled, “I believe there was going to be a massage, right?”

  Alburet chuckled and took a seat at the table, “Correct. Stacia, I do believe you’re up.”

  Stacia grabbed a bottle from the sideboard before walking back to the bed. She stripped off her own robe, letting it fall to the floor, turning sideways to show her profile off to Alburet. “Sir, does the deal from earlier still hold?”

  It took him a moment to recall what he’d said about the massage earlier. Grinning, he replied, “If Karen says your massage was one of the top three she’s ever received, then yes.”

  Eyes blazing with triumph, Stacia nodded, “Accepted.” She tipped some vanilla scented oil into her hand, warming it, then began the massage.

  Alburet watched as Stacia worked her hands over Karen’s body. She was focused solely on the task before her, not on making it a show for him. The happy little noises Karen made at times were erotic enough. Stacia worked her way down Karen’s body, then rolled her over onto her back, working her way back up. Shortly after Stacia began to work the oil into the smaller, pert breasts of Karen she leaned down and kissed her gently.

  Karen moaned eagerly, opening her mouth to turn the small kiss into a passionate one even as Stacia’s hands continued their assault. Alburet sat up straight, eyes intent on the scene before him, his heart speeding up at the sight. He swallowed hard as he watched one of Stacia’s hands ease down Karen’s front until it came to rest between her open legs. Hands shaking, he felt the blood rushing from his brain as other parts of him demanded it. He got to his feet, drawn like a moth to a flame as he stripped the robe off. He came up behind Stacia, who was bent over the bed eagerly kissing Karen. He tapped Stacia’s legs gently, which she spread for him. As she felt him pierce her from behind her moan mingled with Karen’s.

  Hours later the trio were lying in bed, exhausted and spent, but each of them fully sated by all the carnal desires they had indulged in. Karen stretched with a cat like smile, turning her he
ad to look at Alburet. “So, how was the celebration?”

  “I don’t think anything could top that,” he replied with a grin.

  “Right,” Karen giggled, then sighed. “Damn it, I do need to get going. I have a class to teach tomorrow and on top of that the day after I’m representing the dojo in a tourney. It will be a few days before I make it back on. That’s fine, though, considering tomorrow normal access starts up which means way more people.”

  “That still kind of sucks,” Alburet replied, slightly adjusting the arm Karen was using as a pillow. “Oh, well. I’m sure I won’t be too much further ahead of you by the time you return.”

  “Please stop by again so we can indulge some more,” Stacia said from Alburet’s other side. “Before ya depart to the land of the two-souled, can ya tell sir if me massage was one of the top three ya ever received?”

  Karen sat up so she could lean over Alburet to kiss Stacia, “Best massage ever.”
