Chapter 77 - Build Up

Jasmine returned shortly after receiving confirmation that Elizabeth had received her message. She could only imagine the smile she had reading her report. The growing number of villages joining the coalition always brought a smile to Elizabeth's face. She truly hated Myrtle and her way of ruling.

Jasmine sat back beside Ana, the girl still focused on the technology around her. Jasmine let out a sigh before wrapping an arm around her. "Come on, we gotta find an inn."

Ana hesitated for a moment, not expecting the gesture from Jasmine. Her face reddened before she got comfortable under Jasmine's arm. "Y-yeah... sorry, I was so engrossed in it."

"Don't be. It's quite cute." Jasmine said matter of factly. She hadn't had much time with Ana yet, but she could tell it'd be so much easier than with Elsie.

"Ahh... thank you Jasmine... th-that, that..." Ana could barely think right now. Jasmine's words repeated in her mind as the red color deepened. It caused Jasmine to let out a soft giggle.

"Jaz, call me Jaz. All of our lovers should." She whispered to Ana, her eyes on the road as she directed the horses. She felt the eyes of those around her. Bystanders watched as she held the younger twin under her arm. A clear display of affection that caught the eyes of the women around them. It was so foreign for her to have so many eyes on her.

Ana recomposed herself with a little help from Elsie. She was able to properly think again after a brief moment and some encouraging words from Elsie. "O-okay, Jaz... I like that name."

"Thank you. Daph came up with it when we were younger. She could hardly pronounce my full name when she was young, and with her lisp at the time, S's sounded like Z's... Then it just fit." Jasmine said. She pulled Ana close and used her other hand to turn the horses. "I like Ana. It's short and sweet. Anastasia is very pretty, but kind of a mouthful." She whispered

Ana smiled up at her, shifting under arm to get comfortable. She rested her head against Jasmine's chest while they both looked towards the road. "Th-thanks... our mother picked it out. She got to name me while mom got to name Elsie..."

Jasmine felt a pang hit her chest. The twins' other mother had died quite young, leaving Jess to take care of their daughters. It reminded her of her mothers for a brief moment before she tightened her grip on Ana.

"Sorry for making you think about it... I know how hard it can be." Jasmine said as she directed the horses to an inn she spotted. She felt Ana shake her head into her chest.

"It's okay... Elsie and I have grieved our mother. Mom is the real issue... S-she'll close the inn down on their anniversary and the day she died. I-it's hard to watch..." Ana gently whispered. She gripped Jasmine's shirt tightly while she held back her tears. She took a deep breath and continued. "I wish mom could properly move on..."

"It's... tough. Losing someone so special to you can feel like losing an arm." Jasmine said, parking the carriage. She held off on tying the horses and securing the wheels to finish her conversation. "You have to relearn how to do almost everything. Learn to move on from the loss. Learn how to properly function without them anymore..."

She felt her shirt dampen as Ana shook lightly. "I-i know... Sh-she just deserves h-happiness..." Ana got out through slight tears. Jasmine pulled her into a hug, letting Ana cry. The window panel slowly opened before Elsie began to climb out.

"Aww... Ana. You baby..." Elsie said softly. She had a far gentler tone than anything Jasmine had ever heard. Elsie joined the hug, hugging her sister from behind as she stroked her head. "Shhh... mom's slowly getting better. She'll find her happiness again."

Elsie looked up at Jasmine with an unfamiliar smile. Not the smug or sly smile she was used to. A warm, inviting smile filled with the woman's emotions. Elsie stopped for a moment and leaned in to kiss Jasmine's cheek.

"Good job, Jaz... being able to talk about it is a huge step." She whispered to Jasmine.

Another person joined the three. A redheaded paladin climbed through the window panel. She settled closely beside Jasmine before resting her head on her lover's shoulder. "True... Jaz, Ana, Elsie... I don't understand losing a parent, but I understand losing a loved one. When you feel sad like this, please tell me. Or each other." Claire said, a bit of worry in her voice.

Elsie let out a bit of a giggle. "That's what's nice about multiple lovers. You always have someone to talk to." She whispered. To her sister, though, she spoke more intimately. 'Ana... don't be so hard on yourself. It's okay to cry at times. Glad you had someone to commiserate with.'

"True... and we haven't even discovered the downsides yet..." Claire said. She wanted to lighten the mood while they hugged.

The four stayed there for a moment. A big hug with Ana in the middle, before they slowly parted. Lily held back, wanting to let them have some time. She also wanted to watch Ursa react. Her curiosity was piqued at how the Ravian would react to such intimate displays of affection.

While she was expecting a more lewd reaction, Ursa ended up surprising her. A mix of intrigue and maybe jealousy filled her red eyes as the two watched the hug from inside the cabin. That look of envy really caught Lily's eye, so she decided to prod.

"Cute, isn't it?" She finally said, eyeing the tanned woman. Ursa glanced at her for a brief moment before letting out a sigh.

"I... I guess..." She said, trying her best to sound monotone and uninterested.

Lily pursed her lips, thinking about what to say. "You know... Ana was just as embarrassed as you are..." She whispered. She had a hunch the northerner's glances to her lover weren't strictly because of curiosity. She watched as Ursa's eyes perked up slightly before the facade was reestablished.

"And?" Ursa said, coldly as she could. Her body language betrayed her. She bounced from side to side and couldn't meet Lily's eyes.

"Just saying..." Lily said, letting Ursa's thoughts do the rest. She held back a smile, congratulating herself for guessing the woman's crush. She could tell by the way the woman was fidgeting. The warrior was surprisingly cute.

She could not wait to see her let loose.

Ursa cleared her throat, gaining control over herself again. She could feel her breath shorten and her chest burn. This busty woman before her had her own temptations. Nevermind the younger twin, Ursa could hardly look at Lily without glancing down. Women's breasts hardly ever caught her eye before.

She fidgeted once again when Lily stretched her arms. She unknowingly was teasing the poor warrior with a little too much of a show. "Well... we should get packed," Lily said, not noticing the effect her own body had on Ursa. Ursa turned away quickly, her mind racing with thoughts of how they jiggled.

Ursa nodded slowly as she felt her feminine arousal leak down her thigh. She cursed herself for wearing short pants. She just hoped no one could see it before she cleaned up. She awkwardly moved to grab the supplies she was given. She glanced back at Lily, who was bent over doing her own packing.

Ursa's breath caught at the sight. The alchemist was naively humming to herself as she packed for her lovers. She didn't realize she was shaking her hips as she did. Ursa gulped at the display. Her eyes were locked on Lily's butt as it jiggled.

"Fucckk." Ursa whispered to herself. She balled her fist to resist the burning need between her thighs. Her fingernails dug into her skin as she resisted the wet, aching feeling of her pussy. She couldn't wait to get to her private room and let loose.

Jasmine watched on, a bit intrigued by what she saw. She forgot to announce her presence to the two. She silently watched Ursa ogle her best friend's shapely butt while holding back a giggle. A bit of her guilt was eased knowing that Ursa wasn't against sex, just really repressed. That they could work with.

She backtracked, climbing back through the driver's window. She'd reenter properly this time. "Hey, Lily, we're down with the horses." She called out before climbing back through the window. She briefly saw Ursa jump at her voice before turning away. Lily stood up to greet Jasmine, never noticing Ursa ogling her.

"Hey, Jaz," Lily said with a bright smile. She held out her hand, which Jasmine took. "Yeah. Want to help with these bags?"

Jasmine smiled back before giving her best friend a brief kiss. It may be a bit out of character for her, but she felt that urge. That urge to tease. That urge that Elsie enjoyed so much. She glanced at Ursa, who quickly looked away from her. A sly smile was on her face before she picked up some of their bags.

"We'll do our best to find a room for you, but it looked like there weren't many rooms available." Jasmine lied. She had no idea how packed the inn was, but she knew every Scarlet Seraph would thank her. "Might have to get rooms next to each other."

Ursa flinched and stared blankly at Jasmine for a moment. Jasmine thought she broke her for a moment before her tanned skin slowly transitioned to a deep red. Jasmine held back a laugh before exiting the carriage.

It wouldn't be long at this point. Ursa was close to exploding.
