Silvertree Chronicles Bk. 01 Ch. 34

If they love me and it is confirmed by our cleric then we can get married. They want their hymens until they are married. I do not want any bastard children. My father and mother never married so I am very particular on that front."

She nodded, "I will see my cleric before the funeral tomorrow. I know you have one heart and are well on your way to the second."

He waited for his ladies to be covered. He unlocked the door and let the ladies out. The event was still in full swing with Dukes still in line. He closed the door and looked at all of the broken stuff. He managed to mend the water pitcher. The mirror was a complete loss.

Charlemagne laughed.

He looked at her, "Laughing girl! You two side by side and get the lube I have come twice tonight. I want you two to take turns jerking me off onto the other let us see when it goes soft."

Charlemagne looked at him, "About time we did this test."

He sat there while they took turns jerking him off and he finally went soft after 30 climaxes. He looked at the ladies, "That means five for each of you if I have 6 wives.

They looked at each other and laughed at the amount of seed covering each other and they were trying to decide if a washbasin would be more effective this time. He looked at them, "Imaging sucking that much into your stomach."

They both shook their heads, "They better work out or we are in trouble."

Annette laughed, "You look like a pastry that has exploded from being overstuffed."

Charlemagne chuckled and it took a good 20 minutes for them to get cleaned up. He looked up and the door was open. Someone was in the hall talking and he waved him forward, "The Princess would like for you and your wives to make an appearance."

He looked at him, "The room is magically silenced but we will be done in just a moment. He nodded and walked away while his wives started laughing. Charlemagne laughed out, "They probably thought we jacked off a couple of horses on us in here."

He got his armor on while they finished getting dressed and back into his armor and headed back to the throne room. He looked at the Princess, "My apologies for the delay. I magically silenced my room so we did not hear your man at the door, Princess."

She nodded, "He said something to that effect. Would you take a knee, please?"

He took a knee and she draped a medal around his neck, "An award for heroism and your diplomatic skills which aided in our transition. We named the award after your father. The Silvertree Medal of Excellence in Service to the Kingdom."

He nodded, "Thank you, Princess. As the head of house Silvertree, I can say my father would be honored to have an award named after him. For that award to fall on his own son would both surprise and please him. It surprises me."

She smiled and he stood and there was a round of applause. He saw Duke Walder waving him over. He walked over with his wives following him.

He smiled, "Hello again! First, that speech of yours was inspiring. It got some who were on the fence to fall in line once they realized you did not control the Princess. Even reminding her that she does not have the crown yet. It showed them that there was a way forward without the loyalty to the Crown.

Until she has the crown when this ceremony would be repeated. She had a side meeting with my youngest son. Nobody knows what was said but they both appeared to be in good spirits. The night went smoothly. My wife and daughters think you might have hit the nail on the head. They are talking about traveling to the Elven Kingdom."

Eldar nodded, "We extended an invitation. They will never fully see the true me in a Royal court. Working among the people, leading men, and dealing with changes in my elven House.

Assuming the leadership of the house while also working to change its structure. I save titles for the court and when I need someone to pay attention and not dismiss me. Being of mixed elven blood I am unique to be in this position. Married to half-elves makes it even that much further from the norm. I have been challenging the status quo in elven society.

It will take time but our population will grow again. In two years, there will be a boom in the population as contraception has been outlawed."

He looked at Eldar, "You get my daughter to marry soon I will double their dowry just to be rid of them."

Eldar laughed, "I found them charming. Different personalities and alike but I like variety and a challenge. I am hoping to convince them that we are the right choice for them, before the twelfth. There will be a mass wedding event between the two villages at Silent Falls. It is a holy site."

He looked at Eldar, "Why that day?"

Eldar smiled, "It is the night of the double crescent there will be a sword ceremony to Activate three Moon Blades and two are in the hands of my apprentices. I will be conducting the ceremony. If we were to be married, they could witness history.

My apprentices are not even adults yet. They were chosen by the Gods. It will bring us back up to 13 active blades while the fourteenth blade will be given over in about 20 years. It is a closed event. The one person who tried to view it who was not invited had his eyes burned out. If they wanted to take part in this mass marriage event then we would need to find love before then.

An hour after this ceremony, the Lady of Dreams will be there. The elven goddess who performed my first ceremony. You cannot marry without love in elven society. Rachel is getting close, I definitely showed I am not the typical male. I think I will speak to your daughters again before they leave. Your wife will be ushering you out of here for she wants to share your bed tonight. All my talk of love I think impacted her."

He smiled, "She said as much. She said you gave her ideas on how to spice up our love life."

Eldar smiled and walked over to his daughters, "Well I was not expecting to be called back out this evening while I am here how are the ladies doing?"

Rachel leaned into him, "I really, really, like you and it is close to love. I need to see what you are like outside of court."

Eldar smiled, "I agree. We can go for a ride and you can see the town we are building. I told your father I hoped we would find love soon as there is a mass wedding occurring on the twelfth that would be a once in a lifetime event."

She looked at him, "Why?"

He smiled, "We would be married by a Goddesses, but only if we find love together. The same goddess who sent us off to find 2 more sets of sisters. The same goes for the other 2 who are moon elves. I meet with them in 3 days. I would love to have the 2 of you at that meeting."

He whispered to her, "Remember we talked about me never going soft. I told the ladies to run an experiment after you left. Using their hands and taking turns it took me climaxing 30 times before I went soft. I am hard again already, but that is almost 4 times as many as the max number I have done in one evening."

She looked at him, "That is a lot. My mother said my father would be lucky to do two."

He smiled, "That is why I gave her that ring. I can get another if I ever really need it but with as much seed as I am putting out, I do not see a need to get another one.

Another thing the ladies did not get around to showing was all the toys we have for the bedroom. Including vaginal and anal strap-ops. I also get a special attachment for each of them because of what makes them climax when they use it on each other. Nothing more than a finger goes to my nether-hole. Something happened as a kid which was stopped but I get violent if anyone tries that."

She nodded, "Good to know you have boundaries."

He smiled, "I have not had relations with a woman unless my wives set it up. They have to approve and, in this case, deeply care for or love the wives we add. Three of the four still have hymens which will prove to be a challenge because I cannot show you what it is like to have mad passionate love to you and your sister. That is a boundary I will not cross.

At least until I know we love each other and will get married. Charlemagne was with child before we got married and Annette became with child the night of our wedding."

She looked at Eldar, "Why do you support their activity?"

He smiled, "It takes nothing away from our relations, in fact, we enjoy playing together. I wish I could tell you about the night at the palace. Let me say I found out they have an exhibitionist side, combined with magical manacles hanging off of balconies while howling at the moon. One lady howling and you know who that was."

She giggled, "You did this at the Elven Palace?"

He nodded, "We were guests and it has a lovely balcony."

She laughed. "You do crazy stuff like that often?"

He sighed, "We try to take turns on what we do and we do not do something the others would have a problem with. While we use manacles and we have a couple of paddles for when one of them misbehaves-they like to be mischievous just so they get a few swats it turns them on a little.

We do not do any hardcore pain stuff. We spend a lot of time being forced to kill. We want pleasure when we seek companionship. Any of that stuff interest you?"

She smiled, "Right now you interest me and that says a lot for a man. Your eyes are outlandish."

He nodded, "When you see the silver swishing around you know I can see you. I can see what you want. If you have concerns or questions. It is like I can see to your soul and the future at the same time. Like knowing about what would turn you on. A gift from the gods. Let us talk about something other than sex.

You know I care little for money, power, or the court. They are a means to an end to make things better for my people. I am converting every oven in all three villages to magical ones that do not consume fuel.

The same goes for the inn, the keep, and all of the building. I have three forges paid for. One has been delivered by the dwarves and they do not use fuel as they are enchanted. We have a church to all of the elven gods going up and an Arcane Academy. The second in the entire Kingdom. There were others. As lands were lost over the years the buildings were lost. We are also replanting a lost forest to reclaim the land.

Breeding Elven War horses who are trained by the elders in the herd. They respond to elven commands. If you do not know elven it is something you will want to learn as the horses only respond to elven."

She looked at me, "You are breeding horses on top of everything else?"

He nodded. "Building a town, raising a family, loving my wives, protecting a border, and killing off the occasional spy that we find. Training two apprentices and being a part-time diplomat, it appears.

All while building a keep and establishing the security forces for my duchy which is over 400 hundred square miles. It would be almost 2,000 thousand square miles now on the elven side of the border. Let us not forget I will be the Field Marshal for when war strikes."

She looked at him, "How do you find time for a family?"

He smiled, "I put a lot of good people to work. I delegate some things out and check to make sure everything is going right. I do not build the wagon, I just designed it and guide others to what I want and where. My wives help a lot with that. I make sure they have responsibilities they are comfortable with. Annette is a town administrator. Charlemagne oversees the Gray Blades training. I oversee everything.

I have others who are directing the troops along our lines guarding trade through the region. All while we build up our fortifications. We do not want them to gain a foot of ground. Staria works in the elven capital and she got us our building plans for the town and she would make a good town administrator with Charlemagne but she is also a talented mage so there is much she could do.

The same goes for her sister, they are both mages. I could use them to help oversee the protection forces for the Duchy. I know about the sword and bow but what did you school in? What interested you?"

She looked at him, "You had me at horses."

He smiled, "What about your sister?"

She shrugged, "Let us go ask her."

They walked over to where Dorothy was all smiles, "What kind of work are you interested in?"

She thought long and hard, "Working with children."

He looked at her "Babies too?"

She nodded. He looked at her some more, "How about aiding in deliveries?"

She looked at him, "That would be interesting."

He looked at her, "She could oversee the nursery and work with the maternity ward in the church when they have a lot of babies being born at the same time.

One of you helping to deliver babies the other foals. That assumes this is a life you both want."

Rachel looked at him, "We want to see it all with our own eyes but it sounds wondrous."

He smiled, "If you like court there is the Elven court which would also make you duchesses like Charlemagne and Annette. He reached into his bag and pulled one of the gray books out. "This was a favorite of mine when I was a child. I found that it was given to another man in the next village and I had more copies of it made. It might help to make you understand where my sense of right and wrong began.

I memorize everything I read. I have since I was a child. Teachers at the Academy hated when I corrected them on some points." They laughed. "I realized it was not worth the trouble unless it was something important. Like resolving your government issues. What was allowed, versus what they wanted to do."

Rachel pointed behind him and Charlemagne waved to him as she called him to come over. He sighed, "I hope you travel back with us to House Silvertree in the Elven Capital. That will be our first stop as I have to meet with the Queen and the head of the Arcane Academy."

He left the ladies and headed back to the front, "The Princess wants to speak with you in private. Over there in that room."

He nodded and walked to the door and a guard let him in. It was just him and the Princess. He looked at her, "How are you holding up? Your advisers working out well?"

She looked back at him and threw her arms around him, "I am doing better now. Your speech was inspiring. All of my advisers liked that you had the others recognize the ruling body in place until the crown could be claimed. They said it was a stroke of genius. Something like that is what your father would have done according to them.

Combined with everything you have done to try and protect me, the last member of the royal family. You have given my people hope. They now believe that I am not a puppet of the elven court."

He smiled, "That was what the initial proclamation was supposed to do as well."

She nodded, "It helped with the common people for the most part but the nobles were a mixed bag until tonight. You helped to unite them to see what they gained. To really look at the advisers. Some of whom have been at odds with the elven Kingdom on a few items but overall, they respect our allies. You also earned the respect of the advisers."

He smiled at her, "There is a reason I never asked for their names. If anyone asked who they should speak to about a given item I would say 'the diplomat and military advisers.' Showing I have no familiarity with them. We are not on a first-name basis because I do not care for them. I am not on a first-name basis to show a level of distance between them and the Elven court."

She nodded, "To further demonstrate you did not select them and you do not know their opinion on the matter."

He smiled, "Exactly. I will not be seen often in your court as I am tending to the trade routes on your northern border. You can always contact me via your crystal and I am but a teleport away. I committed to memory a couple of places just outside the palace I could teleport there and then arrive at the front gate. If it was called for."

She smiled, "While checking the exterior perimeter security."

He smiled, "How did your chat go with the Duke's son?"

She looked at him and blushed, "You heard about that?"

He nodded and smiled, "I have been working on getting the twins to travel back to the elven capital with me. The father mentioned you had a meeting with him but nothing more except you both seemed to be all smiles."

She looked at me, "He kissed me. Then he just held me to let me know he was sorry about my father and he loved what you did for me. He has been watching over me from a distance for a couple of years because he is... He admitted to me to being attracted to me."

He looked at her, "You kissed him back."

She smiled broadly. "I will work with my advisers on the proper protocol for him to court me. Thank you for pointing him out to me."

He smiled, "My gods helped to guide you. I am their eyes and voice at times."

She hugged him again, "You are so much more. You are not a puppet of the gods but they did choose well."

He looked at her. "Let me show you something." He removed his armored shirt and his shirt so she can see his holy symbol. "When I say I was chosen. This search for more wives happened because of an amulet my wives gave me. The amulet merged with my holy symbol and that embedded into me. The gods did not expect that I would need 3 sets of sisters to stay sexually satisfied.

This amulet of health not only helps in regeneration now but has more than doubled my sex drive. Which is why I am looking at the twins because the gods pointed me to them. I wanted you to see this with your own eyes and you can feel it pulsing."

She nodded, "That is amazing. A curse and a blessing."

He smiled. He put his shirt and armor back on and pulled out his boot dagger. He sliced his hand. She saw it bleed and then he wiped away the blood. The cut was gone. He looked at her, "Regeneration from the divine modification done to the amulet."

He sheathed the dagger. "I am a lot more resilient than I look because of that warped item."

She nodded, "You will have a large family then?"

He smiled, "Each set of twins will have twins and they will have a dozen for each pair. That would be thirty-six children all before the war starts. If I lose two wives I will have to find two more sisters most likely. My body would become aggressive in bed. Have you been given any sex education?"

She smiled, "I had a nanny that talked about her boyfriend a lot and how he would pop off twice and would be done for the night."

He smiled, "When your page came to find us my wives were running an experiment on me to see when I would stop having an erection. It was 30 times. It was back within the hour."

She shook her head, "Being in the field is going to be bad for you."

He smiled, "You mean any poor bastard stupid enough to cross blades with me. Because my aggression would transfer into combat."

She smiled, "So a lover at home and a lion in the field."

He shrugged, "Close enough."

She laughed. "We should get back."

He nodded and opened the door for her so she could return to her throne.

He looked around and the Duke had left with his family. He looked at the Princess, "We are going to call it a night and let me apologize now. My wife Annette can be rather vocal in bed. She shattered a few wine glasses and a mirror in the room from the note she hit earlier."

The Princess laughed and smiled, "It does not concern me, thankfully you had your room silenced so my guests did not hear it or bring down the crystal chandeliers."

He smirked at her, "I took what precautions I could, Princess."

She looked at him and blushed, "Have a pleasant night."

He smiled as he left. "I already have, Princess."

He heard her giggling as he took his wives back to the room to find they had fresh linens; towels and all the broken glass were gone including the shattered mirror.

He looked at Annette, "I apologized for the mirror and told her that you get a bit vocal and hit notes that shatters glass on occasion."
