“Hilsith,” she thoughtfully asked, “What are your thoughts on your relationship with my parents?”

Hilsith smiled. “It’s wonderful, but I know it’s temporary. I am more than Yazadril and Nemia’s girlfriend,

but less than their wife. I know their love for each other will always be primary for them, and I’m quite

sure that I cannot become pregnant by Yazadril, since he doesn’t love me in that way. We all know that

eventually, I’ll fall in love with the elf who will become my husband, and then my relationship as it is with

Yazadril and Nemia will end. And we’re fully comfortable with that. But until that happens, be it only

another day away or a millennium, we will cherish the love and happiness we give each other.”

“Thank you.” Talia nodded.

“Alilia, if we choose to accede to your request; you would live in our home so that Mark can truly be a

father to his child. Your position in our relationship would be very similar to Hilsith’s position in my

parents’ relationship. You would definitely be junior to me in that relationship, and in Mark’s affections.

Furthermore, you’ve been known to be somewhat abrasive at times, and I’m still a young elf, and I still

occasionally feel emotional responses that are somewhat immature. There may be times when I

become irritated or jealous with you, and I may choose to take advantage of your vow of service to

compel you to endure another spanking, or other acts of contrition.”

“I understand. I stand by my vow.” Alilia quietly responded.

There was a long pause in the conversation.

“Alilia, look at me.” Talia quietly commanded. “Do you love me?”

“I do love you, Talia. I began to feel this way when we first met Mark in the South Pass of The Nine

Valleys. After I realized how horribly I had wronged you, and you gave me your forgiveness.”

“Mmm. Kiss me. Show me that you love me.”

Alilia smoothly stood as Talia did, and they embraced for a moment, before Alilia slowly moved to kiss

the younger elfess with deep and sensuous affection. As the kiss ended, Alilia’s discipline cracked, and

she hugged Talia with desperate emotion. “Oh please Talia, please…” she softly begged, her tears

flowing into Talia’s hair.

“We must love you, Alilia, for this to work.” Talia murmured. “And as you say, we do not love you now,

but then we’ve spent very little time with you. Stay with us for a while, earn our love, and let us learn to

love you. Especially Mark. You can’t expect him to have a child with a woman he doesn’t love. You’re

incredibly beautiful, intelligent, and capable, and your personality has been improved by the ordeals of

the last few months, so it shouldn’t take too long. If you can earn our love, you can bear Mark’s child.”

“Thank you, thank you so much…” Alilia sobbed as she lost control completely and broke down crying. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Mark gently reached out from his seat on the big sofa and gently picked them both up, and slowly set

them on his lap. He wrapped his huge arms around both the tiny elven women and nuzzled the tops of

their heads.

“A wise choice, I think.” Hilsith nodded, as she and Yzell stood and smiled. “And we will take our leave.

I see no further need for our services here this evening, as things seem well in hand, and you will not

be attempting a conception tonight.”

Talia started to get up to see them off.

“No no, you shouldn’t interrupt your embrace, we’ll see ourselves out.” Yzell chuckled. “We’ll see you

again soon.”

“Oh, one more thing.” Hilsith said as she turned and cast a quick spell on Mark, who was stunned with

surprise at the sudden sensation. “I had Yazadril work on that with me, so that it would be tuned to your

unique frequencies. The spells I cast that Talia uses on herself and Alilia to ensure that your

lovemaking will be harmless, despite the disparity in you sizes, those spells have their limitations where

her pregnancy is concerned. What I just cast on you will ensure that as her pregnancy progresses, your

coitus will not be as deep, nor will you desire it to be. The same will be true of Alilia, should she bear

your child. For the consideration of the children.

“Good evening then, we’ll see you again soon.”

With that, she and Yzell let themselves out.

Mark gave them a wave, choosing not to try to speak around the lump of emotion in his throat, and

having no response to what she’d said at any rate.

After another ten minutes of cuddling, he thought he could trust his voice again. “I’m a very lucky man.”

he rumbled, which drew a titter from Talia, who began to caress him more intimately.

Suddenly he stood up and declared; “Well what do you know! I think it’s bedtime already!” Then he

effortlessly carried both girls to their bedroom in a cloud of feminine giggles.

They slept late and had a leisurely brunch.

As they were cleaning up the dishes, Alilia announced; “I’d like to go visit Yazadril for a few minutes.

He’s still my best friend. Though he’s your father, I’d like to be the one to tell him and Nemia of our new

arrangement. That is, if Hilsith hasn’t told them already.”

“Sure.” Talia smiled. “We’ve got a few chores to do, but we haven’t seen them for a couple of days.

Shall we join you there in an hour or so?”

“That would be nice.” Alilia said as she returned the smile. She gave them both a quick kiss, and was

gone.

“This is going to be very interesting.” Mark chuckled as he cast a Preserve on the leftovers and put

them in the cupboard.

“True, but if last night was any indication, we can at least be sure that Alilia will be a very pleasurable

playmate!” Talia laughed. “I’ve never seen anyone so determined to pleasure two others to the point of

complete exhaustion!”

“That’s for certain! And she seems determined to make sure that it doesn’t look like she’s trying to

come between us. She always kisses you first, whether it’s for good morning or goodbye or any other

reason. I’m still pretty nervous about the whole thing, but this just might work out okay.”

Meanwhile, Alilia had been greeted by Yazadril and Nemia, and they’d exchanged a few pleasantries

before she got around to telling them what had occurred. Hilsith was out at Yzell’s, and had not spoken

a word of it, which was not surprising since she was Alilia’s Healer, and the matter was a patient

confidentiality.

To Alilia’s surprise, Yazadril and Nemia waited patiently while she told her tale, then burst out laughing.

“I’m sorry Alilia, we mean no disrespect!” Nemia managed to get out after a moment. “But Yazadril

predicted everything you’ve just told us almost word for word weeks ago, based on nothing more than

your behavior! And while you were telling us that, you seemed like you were afraid we were about to

flay you with our disapproval!”

“My behavior?!” Alilia asked in consternation. “Have I really been that transparent?”

“Oh, not to anyone else perhaps, but to us, certainly.” Yazadril chuckled as he controlled his laughter.

“You’ve hardly visited them for fear your feelings would burst out of you and they’d reject you. But

whenever we speak, you ask about them, and whenever they are spoken of by others, your expression

lights up like the dawn! And whenever children are spoken of, your face wears such a look of longing

that it tugs at my heart.

“You needn’t fear we’ll disapprove, since I considered the whole thing to be rather inevitable. I only

hope they won’t break your heart. I know with certainty that you won’t break theirs, since theirs is one

of the strongest loves I’ve seen in all my long years of life.”

“Ah. Well, thank you. Thank you both.” Alilia told them as she re-gathered her composure. “There’s a

favor I would like to ask of you, as well. I’d like two spells cast into an object, the largest pearl in this

necklace specifically. I don’t want to raise the subject of my conception with them again until I’m certain

that they both genuinely love me.”

“I see.” Yazadril smiled. “You’re perfectly capable of casting such a specified Love Detection into the

necklace yourself, but you want there to be no doubt as to the objectivity of the spell.”

“Just so.” Alilia nodded.
