"I thought we were all..." Janette couldn't quite put into words the bond that the three of them shared.

“We are." Gregory nodded and gently stroked his hand down her bare flank.

Algra nodded in agreement.

"Then why did you two do this without me?"

"Being mate is not forsaking others, it is forging a deeper connection," Algra quickly interjected before Gregory could try to explain.

“He is yours as he is mine. You share a world I do not know. You are bound together deeper than any others who will come in this world. Yet I am his, am I not? Now we both share something deeper with him."

“But you're married. That's a Little too special, isn't it? From now on I'll always just be the other woman.”

At this Algra grunted dismissively.

“Orc mating isn't exactly like human marriage, Jan. You know how the female orcs kind of go sex-mad every now and then?"

The female orc he happened to be sharing space with just then gave a very dangerous warning growl upon hearing that.

“In a totally irresistible and incredibly sexy way, of course," he quickly added.

Algra's growl turned into something of a purr.

“Well because they kind of lose control during that time, they don't really consider monogamy in mating quite as ironclad as we do. If I'm ever away from Algra and she goes into heat then she'll choose someone else. Because of that, orc women don't really hold it against their mates when they take others. So the mating ceremony just kind of means that she prefers me over anyone else. That we Love each other. Right?" He looked over to Algra for confirmation.

The orc woman smiled and nodded.

“The courtesans teach you well.” “Oh," Janette let out a calmer breath for the first time that night, “so it isn't about keeping yourself just for her?”

“Urgh, stupid humans," Algra grunted.

“How would I fuck you then?" Janette paused at that and her pale cheeks regained their pink flush.

“Are we ok now? You know I'd mate the fuck out of you in a heartbeat, but you kind of have to be an orc, or at least an orc in training."

Janette let out a long sigh and Looked between her two lovers. kK, I'll be fine with it on one condition."

“What's that?" Gregory hoped that another life-threatening quest wasn't on the horizon but prepared himself to bear that burden if she should ask it of him.

“You really have to get your cock in me right now. Your evil orc mate has been teasing me like this for an hour."

"I don't know about that," Gregory Laughed and looked over to the nude orc beside him.

“I should probably ask my mate’s permission first.”

“Why you think I tease her so long?" Algra seemed perplexed at his apparent denseness.

“Well this sure beats coming home to find my slippers laid out next to my pipe. I get a gorgeous red head and a soaking pussy at the end of the day. That's way better." He reached down and started tugging off the skimpy fur panties that Janette was wearing.
