“And instead of ruining everyone's meal, I actually Listened to you for once.

“Since then, I've taken her advice more and more often. And look where we are now. Not quite all one big, happy family," she said with a glance at Maria.

“But getting there.”

“Wow," Alex said. He shuffled his feet uncomfortably.

“I guess we owe her a lot."

“We do," Rachel said with a nod. She sniffed, aware of a growing aroma in the air. Maria's hip was warm where it touched her shoulder.

And she was growing warm as well. The faint scent of Althea, combined with the presence of two healthy, happy, horny young people, was beginning to turn her on, despite the cold hospital air and the decidedly unromantic setting. And she had a sneaking suspicion that merely being in Althea's presence was a potent aphrodisiac in and of itself. That would certainly explain how she had no lack of partners over the centuries.

Would you mind?

«Mind? Lucifer's Balls, if I hadn't thought you'd hit the roof I would have suggested it myself! What's hotter than some public three-way action?~ Althea giggled merrily. ~Plus, with my body here, maybe I can send a little power over to it, so it stays healthy. Hospitals are awful places. Full of sickness and disease. Gross.~

Rachel moved her arm, letting it curl around Maria's knee, then travel up the inside of her thigh. Her skin was warm and smooth under her fingers, and she smiled inwardly as she heard Maria give a cut-off moan. Her legs came together, trapping her hand in a gentle vise.

“Tell me, Maria," she said, letting her voice drop into a deeper register, assuming her role as Mistress of the Household.

“Are you wearing panties today?"

“No, Mistress," Maria breathed.

“Good,” she said.

“I am glad you are following my instructions. Alex,” she continued as her fingers continued their upwards journey.

“Please close the blinds there on the door. I don't want people looking in on us.

“Now, Maria," she purred. "I want you to hold very still while Alex takes your clothes off. If you satisfy me, I may allow you to make me come. And I might allow Alex to fuck you while you're doing it."

“Jesus, Mom!" Alex's voice was shocked.

“What's the matter, darling? Afraid of the consequences of your actions? This is what happens when you accept my role. Either deal with it, or don't. But if you can't handle it, don't think about exploring those naughty fantasies I know you're having.

"This is the first test, Alex. Can you share Maria with me? Or not?"

Alex looked desperately between the two of them.

“Maria? Honey?"

“Do it, mi lindo," Maria replied. Rachel fingers reached her nether lips, finding them hot and wet under her touch. For the first time, she felt the private areas of another woman, and she could sense what a struggle it was for Maria to hold herself still. She slowly ran her fingers along her lips, feeling them part under her touch. "Oh, Dios mio! She feels so good! Her fingers...so skilled. Please, Alex, my love, take off my clothes as she orders. I need her. She promised me, before you became my master, she promised me, my love, that one day I might please her. I have been waiting for that day ever since."

Rachel watched the internal struggle. Alex shut his eyes, visibly torn between the need to give his lover what she so obviously desired, and his selfish yearning to keep her for himself.

Finally, his eyes popped open. He gave a rueful smile, filling Rachel's heart with joy.
