Ken poured wine into two cups, watching the dark liquid swirl. The flickering lantern created shadows that only accentuated Selene's curves. Her eyes glinted with amusement as she leaned on the bed.
"So," Ken said, clearing his throat. "You're the Chief's sister, huh? How is that like?"
Selene chuckled. "Mm." She nodded. "I'm the Chief's younger sister, though not by much." She swirled her wine lazily. "My duty is to… Well, I help keep the village together. Managing the supplies, the cooks, tending to the children when the parents are too busy, that kind of thing." Her smile curved, eyes locking with his. "I help make things better in the village, in my own way. Speaking of which," She leaned a bit closer. "Can I make things better for you somehow?
Ken nearly choked on his wine. 'What the hell does she mean by that?' He coughed and changed the subject.
The two talked a while longer. They talked about the ant raids, the fear in the village, the stubbornness of her brother. Selene's voice was soothing, almost hypnotic. But as the cups were drained, filled again, and drained a couple more times, the atmosphere shifted.
Slowly but surely, it started happening more and more often. Her hand lingering on his arm or thigh for an instant too long, her knee brushing against his, her elbow pushing against her large breasts, accentuating her impressive cleavage…
Ken froze as she leaned in; her perfume was subtle and intoxicating. "You're strong," Selene whispered. "You're brave enough to try what others won't. It's my duty… To take care of you."
Ken tilted his head, thinking he was a bit too drunk and wasn't understanding her properly.
Selene chuckled at the innocent expression on his face, then pushed him back, her weight pressing against him.
'What the… What the fuck?' Ken thought to himself, suddenly finding himself lying on the bed with the hottest milf he had ever seen on top of him.
"Will you really help our village?" Selene asked, gently caressing the hair off his forehead. Her chin was resting on his chest.
"Of course." Ken answered, doing his best not to seem timid.
She pushed herself up slightly, gently placed a hand on the back of his head, and pulled him closer, guiding his head into the softness of her breasts.
Ken's eyes widened as he was smothered.
"Aah…" A subtle moan exited Selene's mouth as Ken's excitement caused something to stand and smack her right between the inner thighs.
She smiled dangerously, now fully convinced that he wanted her.
"We might have trouble paying you properly…" Her damp tongue whispered an inch away from his ear, sending shivers up and down his spine. "Will you accept me? As payment?"
Ken slowly pulled back, his field of vision opening up as distance was created between his face and her breasts. "What do you mean by accept you as payment?" He asked.
Selene blinked, startled by the question. "You don't want me?"
Ken took a second too long to answer, and Selene's face grew bright red.
"I-I'm sorry," She apologized, lowering her gaze and pulling back. "I should have known that an older woman wouldn't be to your taste. I'm too-"
Ken's hands suddenly lay on her cheeks, and she froze. Her gaze slowly moved up to meet his.
Her lips parted slightly as she held her breath, staring deep into his eyes.
"Have you ever…" He asked. "Offered yourself to someone else?"
Selene gulped. He was staring right into her eyes, and she felt completely unable to lie or pull back.
"No…" Selene muttered. "Our situation has grown desperate and…"
"Did you come here on the Chief's orders?"
"I did not… My brother would never…"
Ken's thumb gently caressed her cheek. As much as she acted like a predatory milf, there were times when Selene was exceedingly timid and cute. Just like now. She was staring at him with her mouth half-open. Her lips were quivering, her eyelashes fluttering.
As the Chief's sister, no one was ever good enough. All marriage proposals were rejected by her father, then by her brother. Now in her thirties, Selene was still unmarried, and had never known a man's touch.
Still, she was ready to give herself to him. To the one who had promised to help the village, to help her people. To the one who had saved Aria, whom she loved like her own child.
"I want you." Ken finally said, causing the redness that ruled over Selene's face to burn brighter. She wanted to hide her face, but with his hands holding her in place, she couldn't move or look away. "But having you once isn't enough."
"Then…?" Selene muttered with a gulp. "What do you… Propose?"
"Pay me after I save the village from the Ants."
"After…" It had taken a lot from Selene to be so forward with him, so a delay definitely made the pressure a bit less intense.
"But I don't want the payment to be one night together." Ken explained. "If I save your village," His hand moved down her cheek to her neck, then down to her shoulder, elbow, wrist, and finger. "I want you to become my wife."
"Y-Your… Your wife?" Selene stuttered. "Wouldn't you rather have… Someone younger as your… As your wife? Although… Someone of your status would have multiple wives and concubines, of course… But still… For me to-"
Selene's words were cut short as Ken's thumb caressed her bottom lip.
"I want you as my wife in exchange for saving the village." He said. "Do you accept?"
Selene could almost feel steam coming out of her ears. She had come to offer him her body. But now, he was offering her village protection, and offering her a powerful husband?!
"Are you sure you're okay… With someone like me?" Selene asked, rubbing her hands together as she looked away, pursing her lips.
"I am." Ken answered instantly and confidently.
"In that case…" She gulped. "I should give you a taste, before…"
"Give me a taste?" Ken repeated with a raised eyebrow. "What do you-"
His words were cut short.
Selene was blushing like never before as her hand rested on Ken's bulge.
He had frozen completely. As a virgin himself, waiting until after saving the village gave him a bit of time to prepare mentally and emotionally. Ken could previously keep a brave face, but with her hand on his erect cock, the two separated only by some thin layers of fabric, he would be unable to prove so bold and unbothered.
"I'm sorry!" Selene suddenly shouted, her hands shooting up to hide her face from the embarrassment. "I thought I could, but I'm utterly unprepared!" The size of his bulge didn't make it any easier. Just thinking about seeing his throbbing privates was enough to make her nervous.
Ken took a deep breath. Just having her hand over it had momentarily made his mind go blank.
He couldn't let this chance slip from his fingers, but he also didn't feel up to the task just yet. It was just too sudden.
"...?"
A compromise was necessary.
His hands gently lay on Selene's wrists, moving her hands away and revealing her blushing face. Her eyelashes were wet and glittering.
He leaned closer with a hand on her cheek.
Selene's eyes opened wide as she was kissed for the first time in her life.
Meanwhile, Esme was wedged in the space between her bed and the wall. 'I can't tell what's happening from here. Not having my Divine Authority is so annoying… Are they doing it? The sex thing?'
