Children of a Lesser God

Chapter 271: Two Of A Kind

"Exactly what is going through that head of yours, hmm?" Ruby asked as she walked by Laz, tracing a finger along his jaw line as though pointing out it was hanging open slightly.

"Noth... Nothing at all." Laz stammered and eventually managed to get out, causing the girls to laugh.

Taking a closer look, Laz noticed that Ruby and Marlene had similar body types. Although Malene's breasts were slightly bigger, Ruby had a bit more curve to her ass, but even then, their figures were very similar. And the dresses they were both wearing were tight and seemed to only cover slightly below where he could only imagine their panties were. Honestly speaking, if they were to sit down for even one unguarded moment, Laz was pretty sure he would be able to figure out not only the color of their underwear, but the style as well.

Seeing Laz in a flustered way caused both girls to laugh even more.

"You know something. My sister Ruby here has told me a lot about you," Malene said with an evil grin.

"And Malene has informed me of your many dirty secrets from when you were younger," Ruby followed up.

"So we decided to give you a chance."

"Mmm, that's right. One choice. Once chance."

"Uh... And what would that be?" If Laz were to claim he had any idea what they were talking about, he would be struck by lightning. Or have a piano fall on his head. Or something. Because bad things like that happened when you lied so badly.

"You can only be with one of us in the future. So pick one. Me? Or her?" Both Ruby and Malene said at the same time, blending their voices while pointing to each other.

The lightning struck Laz's flailing corpse, right after the piano rolled off it.

This was even worse than lying badly.

"I... uh... but..."

"But what? Don't you think your being a little too greedy? Wanting us both?" Malene asked.

"Now now sister. Don't forget the others. Leona and Kennedy should have a chance as well. We can't leave them out, right?"

"Do you think this guy even deserves either of them?" Malene shot back.

"So you're saying we are bottom of the barrel and they are top shelf?" Ruby asked.

"Well... when you put it that way... I guess. Yes?"

"You naughty girl."

Much to Laz's surprise, the two girls got rather close to each and started play fighting, completely ignoring him.

Which was totally fine since Laz's brain had malfunctioned anyway..

'I mean... I thought Malene said that all of the girls had decided that it was ok... and that they wanted to be with me... and that... I thought that was too good to be true... but to think I would have to decide right now. So soon. And with things the way they are already...'

As Laz's head when back and forth to the point of smoking, he suddenly felt two warm objects embrace both his arms.

"What?"

"We just want you to understand how lucky you are," Ruby commented

"Since we can't give you up, you're stuck with us," Malene added.

"Oh...Well... yeah. I mean. I already knew that," Laz wasn't sure if he was relieved or if he was feeling threatened. Either way, he would have to really watch himself in the future and not start thinking with the wrong head. After all, he already had quite a few beauties by his side.

"Good. And don't you forget it. Now, let's eat!"

The tension that the girls brought was gone in an instant as they sat down at the table with Laz, one on each side of him. Malene had ordered a bunch of different dishes which they all took turns trying, some they liked and others they didn't.

Before long though, Ruby asked Laz a question.

"So what happened to you back then?"

Although Laz had already given Malene a quick run down, that didn't mean that he had included everything.

Although Laz was safe and sound now, back then, he had scared the hell out of everyone. And then with the large time gap that Laz totally disappeared, all of the girls, even though they felt he was ok, were frantic with worry. Malene's personality was gentle enough where she wouldn't demand answers from him, but Ruby wasn't the same.

Interestingly, after Ruby asked, Malene perked up and paid attention, even though she had already heard what he had said before. It seemed like she was interested in hearing all the details now that someone else was asking.

Seeing the two curious looks, Laz took the time to describe everything in detail, never noticing that Ruby had set her phone down next to her with the speaker on. Had Laz been more alert, he never would have missed it.

Laz took them through everything, explaining clearly what had happened when he had gotten free, how he had come to be in the strange forest realm, the one year nap, meeting Sarah and her grandfather and family and finally the advice that had lead him here.

Sitting there quietly, the girls just looked at Laz in amazement. In fact, it took a while before Ruby found her voice.

"So... ok. Of all the things baby... let's start with the fact that you can help people awaken successfully?"

"Ok."

"How?" Malene asked,

"Is it something you can teach others?"

"Is it something everyone can use?"

"Are there side effects?"

"Did you sleep with that girl?"

"You did, didn't you?"

"WAIT... HOW DID WE END UP HERE?" Laz was a target they were both firing questions at, but not giving him space to answer. On top of that, before he could even form a thought, they started asking about Sarah.

"Just answer the question," Ruby ordered.

"No."

"You're not going to answer?" Malene asked.

"NO. I didn't sleep with her. And besides which, wouldn't you know if I did?" Laz asked, looking at both girls.

His question stopped them in their tracks. They would know, wouldn't they? The connection they felt to Laz, they also felt to each other. So how would they not sense another part of the connection.

"Ok."

"We believe you."

Now that Laz had said something they couldn't argue, both girls immediately calmed down. In fact, they both took the opportunity to hug both his sides at the same time.

"You girls.." To change their tune so quick, Laz just couldn't keep up. Still though, he was glad they were no longer angry, even if they were just faking it. After all, for them to fake being angry, there must have been at least some discord within their hearts.

"Moving on," Ruby said.

"You can also strengthen our bodies?" Malene asked, thinking back to what he told them about Abraham.

"Yes. But while the energy flow can be directed and a few changes can be made with strong spiritual strength, like what you possess, me actually strengthening a person's energy paths requires the use of the black flame. I'm not sure that something you can copy though."

The girls looked at each other for a moment and then turned to look at a spot on the table, on that was currently occupied by a large, cooked catfish. Laz wondered what thought they had going through their heads, not knowing that they both subconsciously were looking at where Ruby's phone was hiding.

After a moment without any movement, both girls realized what they were doing and looked back at Laz.

"Show us."

"Show us!"

They both said at the same time.

Despite still sitting at the table of wonderful food, it seemed like they had no interest in it anymore, now that Laz had told them such an interesting secret. The one desire of everyone within Blood Moon was to grow stronger and now, Laz was telling them there was an easy way to do so.

As such, Laz couldn't say no, nor would in. Instead, he got up and walked inside, followed closely by the girls but only after Ruby had grabbed her phone.

"Alright. Which one wants to go first?"

Marlene raised her hand and Ruby shook her head, as if to agree.

"Ok, fine a comfy spot and undress into only your underwear," Laz said without thinking. He had began focusing his breathing while steadying himself. He hated to admit to it, but this was the first time he would be doing this on someone he had close feelings for. It was a whole different ball game than doing it for a stranger or a new friend.

Without hesitation, Malene slid the straps of the dress down her dainty shoulders and quickly slipped out of it. Much to Laz's surprise, she was wearing nothing underneath. Even though it had only been a few days, Laz was still amazed by Malene's body. The slim waist, smooth skin, and perky breasts truly gave her a sense of fresh youth while her lack of shyness added an air of sexuaity to it.

"Now what?" She asked, enjoying Laz's lingering stare.

"Uh.. sit back in the bed and lay down on your back. Although it's possible to do this from the back, it's easier to reach from the front," Laz said with a little shake to his voice.

"Are you going to be ok baby?" Ruby rubbed up close to Laz while grabbing his arm. Feeling her warmth, Laz calmed down. He was nervous about hurting her, but in being nervous, he would put her at greater risk. The best thing to do was to calm down.

"Yeah. Yes. I will be ok. To be honest, I'm just nervous about this," Laz said, revealing his feelings.

"Why? You've done it before twice, right?" Ruby asked as she walked over to the bed while Malene arranged some pillows for her head.

"I've helped the awakening twice, but the strengthening I only did once... well, I guess it was twice since I have been doing it to myself..."

"That more than enough, we trust you, so trust yourself," Ruby said, giving Laz a quick kiss on the lips before stepping back to sit down and watch closely, pointing the camera straight at them.

Laz sat down on the bed next to Malene and took a close look over her. With the time spent before, he felt like he knew her body pretty well, but instead got a bit of a shock.

"When did you...?" Laz said as he reached his hand out and flicked the ring piercing that Malene had through her left nippe. He then repeated the process for the ring she had in the right one. He honestly didn't remember these here the other day.

"MMM.... Save that for later, ok? Normally I wear bars but they show through a lot so when I am running official business, I like to take them out. Makes people more likely to stare at my face and not my chest. But since you were coming over tonight, I decided to use the rings..."

"Oh??"

Malene sat up and little and got closer to Laz's ear,

"I especially like it when they are pulled and yanked. They are strong... so you can be as rough as you want. Besides, with my body strength, they will break long before my nippes do... but save that for later, ok?"

And with that, Malene laid down and giggle, leaving Laz in a daze. He looked over at Ruby briefly.

"What? She saw mine and had to have some of her own. Don't look at me like I corrupted her or something. Sheesh." Ruby said with a smile.

Just as Laz recovered and started looking closer, he noticed that the nippe piercings weren't the only ones that she had gotten.

Before he could think otherwise, he moved his hand down her stomach and was about to touch the ring that was pierced through her most delicate area. Just before he got there though, Malene's hands shot out and grabbed his wrist.

"Not now... Focus. Ok?" She said in a voiced laced with honey.

"Right. Yes.. right." Laz said, coming to.

:And if your a good boy for both of us, maybe we will even whip out the chains that go with them, hmm?: Malene's voice entered Laz's head. She hadn't focused the thought, so Ruby had gotten the message too.

:Most definitely,: she agreed, nodding her head.

Laz couldn't help but gulp at this promise.

'These two really are two of a kind.'
