Perfect Bait

by The Pairing Guy

Chapter 1: Girl Talk

The two of them laughed and laughed, streams of hilarity knocking them back onto the bed, rolling about with mirth. It went on for a good minute or so, and then Mia sat up to wipe the tears from her eyes.

"Hee hee... I can't believe he really did that. Saturos?"

"It's true," Jenna said, recovering from her own giggles. "Right on the inn's table."

Mia bit her lip to hold back another outburst of laughter. Now, she thought. Now's a good time to ask her.

PAIRINGSPAIRINGSPAIRINGS

Mia had been thinking about it the whole voyage, in between looking at him, and yearning.

She wanted Issac. From the very first time she saw him, she'd sensed an irresistible masculine power in him. Her duties had distracted her from that for a little while, but they had met again, and she soon became possessed by the certainty that Issac would be very, very good in bed.

They journeyed together for a good long while, and in that time she tried every sort of bait on him. Her modest, demure manner often had a seductive reverse psychology on boys(with the help of her natural beauty, of course). But when that didn't work on Issac, she went completely shameless: cutting the skirt and blouse of her outfit so that it revealed more of her legs and breasts, "accidentally" tumbling into his arms, suggestively feeling him up whenever she applied her healing magic to his wounds, bending down or leaning forward to offer him perfect views of her cleavage.

She even tried skinny dipping, something she'd never practiced before. Mainly because you can't trust most boys to not look until you got into the water, and once they've seen your whole deal, you lose most of your power of seduction. Issac was straight-and-narrow, though, and obediently looked away while she went behind a bush to strip. As she splashed around in the water, she was rewarded by Issac staring at the brief, enticing glimpses of her naked form, as though hypnotized.

In spite of that, he never approached her, and whenever she came into his room he always made a show of being too tired or too worried or too irritable before she could petition him for some lovemaking. He obviously found her attractive, but he even more obviously didn't want to screw her.

Then they met up with Felix's group, and Mia understood. Issac's heart was set on Jenna, and Jenna alone. The fact that Jenna showed no interest in him didn't change a thing. She didn't even properly thank him for all he'd gone through to rescue her, and Issac was still too stubborn to give up on her.

But Mia wouldn't just let it go at that. She wanted to feel Issac's hard rod pumping into her, and she was ready to do anything to get it. And now that the time had come for this year's Colosso, she had an idea.

Issac didn't want to screw anyone but Jenna. But what if, to get his hands on Jenna, he'd have to screw her as well? Jenna, she realized, made the perfect bait.

PAIRINGSPAIRINGSPAIRINGS

There was one problem, however. She had no doubt she could convince Jenna to go along with her plan, but... what if Jenna was a virgin? It wasn't impossible, and it could cause any number of complications. Mainly that even if Jenna did agree to screw Issac, she could easily chicken out at the last second. That would be beyond embarrassing. Or if Mia happened to be near when her hymen broke... yecch!

They were still basking in the glow of their companionable laughter, so it was a good time to ask. "Hey Jenna," Mia said, as tactfully as she could. "Are you a virgin?"

Jenna went red. "What?"

"Hey, it's nothing to be embarrassed about! Come on, we're friends, aren't we?"

Jenna looked at the ceiling with an "Oh, what the hell" expression, and said, "No, I'm not."

"So, who was your first?"

"Why are you so nosy?" Jenna snapped.

"Look, I just think friends should know these sorts of things about each other," Mia said, holding up her hands and putting a meek expression on her face. "You share with me, and I'll share with you, okay?"

She'd meant to assuage Jenna's suspicion with that offer, but a glint in her eye showed that Jenna was interested. "Okay, sorry. It..." She paused, and gave Mia a look. "None of them meant anything, okay? It was just sex."

She nodded. "I understand."

"...It was Garet."

"Really." Mia leaned closer. This was interesting.

Jenna leaned back on her wrists. "We didn't even mean to do it. We were just fooling around, trying to get some idea of what sex was about. So we got naked and started kissing and groping, and the next thing I knew, Garet was slamming me with his dick."

"There's nothing quite like the first time, is there?"

Jenna grimaced. "Okay. If you say so."

"No, really! Honestly, wouldn't you say that your first time was better than most of the times you've done it since?"

Jenna gave her a "seriously disturbed now" look. "'Most of the times'...? How many times do you think I've had sex?"

Given Jenna's prissy attitude and her cold disregard for Issac, it had to be a pretty low number. On the other hand, Mia didn't want to insult her. "Eight?" she ventured.

"Eight!?" Jenna echoed, aghast.

"Fifteen?"

"FIFTEEN!?"

Jenna's face was so red that it looked as though she would faint. "Look, why don't you just tell me how many?"

"Three, okay? I swear... Gods of Weynard, fifteen!?" She stared at Mia. "Are you saying you've done it more than fifteen times?"

Try more than fifty, you pretentious bitch.

Biting back that sharp retort, Mia just shrugged and smiled. "The guys in Imil like to stay warm in the winter. So do I." It wasn't an entirely truthful answer to the question, but Mia needed to move past the topic. Remembering her promise, she said, "My first was a guy named Peter. He was pretty sweet. He even mopped up my broken hymen after we were done."

"Nice," Jenna said, in a voice that plainly said she could care less. "...You really thought I might have done fifteen men?"

"What? No! Fifteen times... You do it more than once with guys you like, don't you?"

"No. Do you?"

"Sure. There's a guy in my village named Samuel... He's real good at screwing. I did it -" She made as though counting on her fingers. "...oh, ten times or so with him. Well, twenty or so if you count each ejaculation. We even almost got married."

"Married? At your age? What were you thinking?"

What were you thinking when you went through all your teen years without spreading your legs more than three times? "I was pregnant," she said simply.

Jenna's mouth fell open. "What?"

Mia couldn't help rolling her eyes. "What, you thought I was barren? ...Yeah, Samuel said we could get married and take care of the baby together. But my parents weren't happy that I'd had sex with him, so they punished me by sending the baby away to live with aunt and uncle. That got me so depressed that I didn't do anything for over a month, not even screw. I don't know where my aunt and uncle live, so I can't even visit. Me and Samuel decided that since we couldn't keep the baby, there wasn't much good in getting married."

Still, maybe it was for the best... If I'd married Samuel, then I couldn't be with Issac. Samuel's one of the nicest guys I've known, but... Issac's the one I'd like to spend the rest of my life with.

She happened to glance at Jenna, and saw that her mouth was still hanging open. "You... You're a mother?" she stammered.

"Yeah, I guess..." Mia studied her hand. "They hardly even let me hold my baby. They tell me he's doing fine, but... I don't like to talk about it, okay?"

"Okay. Sorry. I won't tell any of the guys this, I swear."

"Thanks." There was a silence, a pleasant, trusting silence. Mia didn't like Jenna much, but still, she did trust that she wouldn't tell.

Now. Ask her now.

"Hey," Mia said, leaning towards Jenna with an eager expression. "I know how we can have some fun. We can't compete in Colosso, but there's a way we can participate in the final event."

"Really?" Jenna lifted an eyebrow, interested in spite of her earlier avowals that she was only going to support Felix.

"You remember how the prize last year was just some lame hat? I bet we can make a much better prize for the winner."

"How?"

Mia licked the back of her teeth. "Does the word 'threesome' mean anything to you?"

Jenna stared at her. "No." It was not a denial, but a statement of disbelief.

She nodded. "Yes."

"No!" This time it was a denial.

"Why not?"

"I'm not a stinking whore!"

Mia rolled her eyes. "I'm not saying this is our calling in life. It'll be a one-time thing. Think of it as an adventure."

"An adventure is supposed to be fun... not..."

"Come on, don't you think it'd be fun, seeing how a guy reacts when he's got two girls to deal with? And you know anyone who wins Colosso is going to be a major hunk. How often do you think either of us'll get a chance to be with a guy like that?"

That made her eyes flicker with interest, but Jenna still shook her head.

Obviously the stuck-up bitch was pretty closed-minded on the subject. But Mia still had her trump card to play.

"Really, Jenna, I'm surprised at you. All your tough talk... and you're too scared to even try a little unconventional sex."

That staggered her. "Easy for you to say," she said defensively. "I'll bet you've done that sort of thing a dozen times before!"

"Nope," Mia returned. "Threesomes are as new and scary to me as they are to you, Jenna."

Actually, strictly speaking this was not true. She had once known the thrill of being pleasured by two boys at once. One boy thrusting hard and fast into her hole, while another worked her breasts until they were heaving with delight... It was one of her fondest memories, and she was proud to say that she had managed to more than satisfy both males. Afterwards they had asked her which of them had been better for her, and she was able to honestly answer that they had tied for the best she had yet experienced. The threesome was really an ingenious invention; because both males were so desperate to perform as good or better than the other, each ended up giving her more pleasure than he would have ever done by himself.

That night also introduced her to anal sex. While she was crouched before one male, performing a spectacular blow job, the other had mounted her from behind. She raised her buttocks in eager anticipation of doggy-style sex, only to feel him entering the wrong orifice. Anal was inevitably more strange and unsettling than arousing, but all three boys who had done it with her relished the experience, and on that first occasion she had actually orgasmed during it(though she suspected that had more to do with the hands fondling her tits and the semen spewing into her mouth), so she was always willing to let her partners perform it on her.

There was really nothing quite like having the cum of two different boys in you. It saddened her that she was never able to repeat the experience. Shortly after, one of the boys had found a girlfriend, and she and the other boy were unable to find another male willing to complete the threesome.

But I've never tried a threesome with two females before, and that's a whole different game. Besides, Jenna wouldn't want to hear about my experiences. The pretentious bitch just doesn't understand the simple concept that if you want men to give you pleasure, you've got to lay down your silly reservations about what's "proper".

"The only difference between you and me," Mia finished, "...is that I've got the guts to try out a new experience."

For a moment, Jenna was silent. Then she blurted out, "But what if Felix is the winner?"

"We won't do it if Felix wins, okay?" Then she paused, and a sly smile crept onto her face. "Though with Felix it would be even more of an adventure, wouldn't it?"

"Ugh! Stop!"

Of course, it wouldn't be Felix. It would be Issac. Mia would make sure of that.

"...Come on, Jenna. Will you do this with me, or are you really all talk about being the baddest, bravest girl around?"

Jenna glared at her. "I'll show you who's all talk. Where are we going to hold this little threesome?"

PAIRINGSPAIRINGSPAIRINGS

Of course, that depended on Iodem.

"Hmm," he said, after the girls had explained it to him. "Yes, a much more suitable reward than we've had for the Colosso winners these past couple years. And once word of it gets around, we should get plenty of great fighters signing up for next year's Colosso. We actually used this same reward a few decades ago, but in recent years no women have volunteered for the task. So you two won't be the first."

"See?" Mia nudged Jenna. "I told you he'd be happy with it!"

Jenna still didn't look happy, though. "I can guess why you haven't had any women volunteering. Because they don't want to be known as the Weynard Whores!"

"What?" Iodem exclaimed. "Oh, I'm sorry, you must have misunderstood. We'll swear the Colosso winner to secrecy about your identities, under penalty of torture and imprisonment. He'll be able to tell what he got, but not from who."

"And you won't tell the contestants what the reward is beforehand, right?" Mia put in. "We wouldn't want to... put any influence on the outcome of the competition, if you know what I mean."

"Of course. The contestants never know what the reward is until the end."

"Good. Now, about a room...?"

"I think I have just the thing."

PAIRINGSPAIRINGSPAIRINGS

It was the most velvety soft room Mia had ever seen. Every last inch of the floor was covered with thick, mossy rugs, and much of it was also littered with obviously expensive pillows. Silk sheets adorned the walls, giving the room a sensual air. And the centerpiece was a bed big enough that seven people could sleep in it quite comfortably, with king size pillows at its head and layers of thick sheets and blankets.

"Wow," Jenna murmured.

"One of the nobles here always heads off on a trip whenever Colosso rolls around," Iodem explained. "He can't stand the crowds."

"Well, better try out the springs," Mia said with enthusiasm, hopping on to the bed. She bounced easily on her bottom. "Wow, nice! Springs are good and strong, but the bounce is still nice and soft!"

"Now, don't worry about having too much fun in here. The servants will make sure everything is as neat and tidy as ever once you're done in here, and anything you tear or destroy can easily be replaced."

Mia lifted an eyebrow. "Even the bed?"

Iodem laughed. "I assure you, short of using your psynergy abilities, you won't be breaking that bed! The noble who stays here must weigh close to 400 pounds."

Mia smiled. It really was the most wonderful bed she'd seen in all of her travels, and before long Issac would have her bouncing on it like a djinn gone berserk. Her blood pounded in anticipation. Once she showed Issac how much better she was in bed than Jenna, he'd change his one-note tune. Even if that part of her plan didn't work, at the very least she'd have him this once, even if she'd have to share him with Jenna. And she had every intention of screwing Issac like it was the only night she'd have him.

"Now, is there anything else you ladies need?" Iodem inquired.

Mia looked up. "Well, we could use some dresses for the occasion. What I'm wearing isn't too bad, but that outfit Jenna has is like a 'Do Not Enter' sign." Jenna went beet red.

"I'm sure we can arrange a selection for you two."

"Oh, and one more thing. We can still have that special seating for Colosso that we got last year, right?"

"And don't forget to have a different reward ready if my brother wins!" Jenna put in. "That Proxian chick who has him wrapped around her finger won't be happy if his reward is a night with Mia."

Iodem bowed his head. "Anything for the ladies providing the reward for this year's trials."

PAIRINGSPAIRINGSPAIRINGS

Colosso went just as Mia expected. Helkor the Mighty was a favorite to win, but a patch of ice in just the wrong spot made him slip and hurt his back. A stone statue unexpectedly flooded over, forcing Felix to swim through a small pond. A cracked floor(weakened by dampness) collapsed beneath Garet's feet, twisting his ankle and forcing him to take the longer route.

A few grumbled about how those sorts of misfortunes seemed a bit more common this year than in previous years, but all-in-all it was a very exciting competition, and few were terribly displeased that Issac was again the winner. Certainly not the many people who had placed bets on him. And least of all, Mia.

PAIRINGSPAIRINGSPAIRINGS

"This is a mistake."

Mia ignored Jenna for a moment as she straightened out her costume, examining herself in the mirror. If she did say so herself, she really did look more sensual than ever. She wore an aqua dress with traces of pink. Unlike her usual dress, which was medium cut to allow her to display her cleavage when she wished, this outfit completely covered her bosom. Covered, but certainly did not hide, for the entire garment was made of layers of see-through material, which combined to keep her "decent" but still offer tantalizing impressions of her fine curves and a pair of shadowed dots that obviously marked her nipples. Every move she made was a masterful tease, variously hiding and revealing her beauty. Her long hair was done up in tight ribbons so that it would not cause problems during the most impassioned parts of their threesome.

Jenna wore a much simpler dress of purples and reds, with a V-shaped cut that completely exposed her cleavage. Nothing covered her midriff, either, and the waist of her skirt hung loose enough that it would be easy for a man to shove a hand in and feel her private treasure, without removing a single article of clothing.

"So, you're chickening out now, Jenna?"

Jenna glared at her. "I'm not afraid to try anything, okay? I'm just saying that this is a mistake. And maybe you'll see that if you give it some thought."

"Are you kidding? I've been looking forward to this every day of Colosso. It's been months since I've had a good fuck." She gave Jenna a look. "And you can use one even more than me. Heck, a lot more."

"Hey, don't go saying that I've got problems just because I don't put out for every guy who wants some!"

Oh, that is IT. It was all Mia could do to keep the rage out of her voice as she retorted, "Just because I know how to get my pleasure doesn't mean I don't have standards. And you're one to talk, your first time was by accident. I may be more willing to open my legs than you, but every time I've lain with a guy I knew exactly what I was doing right from the start. I don't regret a single time I screwed, and don't you dare presume otherwise just because of the number of times I did."

Jenna looked down, and in her face... there was an actual twinge of shame. "I... I never thought about it like that. ...I'm sorry, Mia. I misjudged you."

"It's okay," Mia said, her attitude softening. Maybe she's not just a pretentious bitch after all. "I guess I wasn't really fair to you, either. But look at it this way: Honestly, which one of us do you think is more stressed out all the time? Which of us are people always complaining about for being cranky?"

Jenna blushed. "And... you think that's because of the sex?"

"Well, it sure isn't healing people that takes the edge off for me!" Mia laughed. "Really, Jenna, it's the perfect way to forget your problems. It calms down all your raging hormones, it gets the tension out of your body, and it makes you feel better about yourself. Even when you've screwed up everything else, you know you can at least make a guy cum for you." She stepped forward and put her hands on Jenna's shoulders. "I'm not going to tell you how to live your life, but tonight at least, you should really try and enjoy yourself. I'll bet anything it'll make you feel a hundred and fifty percent better."

After a moment's hesitation, Jenna nodded. "I'll give it a try. ...I wish the winner was a stranger, though. I feel awkward about doing it with someone I know as well as -"

Iodem poked his head in. "Just a head's up, ladies. The winner will be here in a few minutes."

"Thanks. We'll be ready."

"Good. By the way, those dresses are yours to keep; we don't want you worrying about tearing them or... whatever. We want you to give a wonderful night to our winner. I hate to be crude, and I'm not trying to cast aspersions on your talents, but we'd rather not have the word going around be that the reward for winning Colosso was a dry hump."

"Oh, don't worry. This will be the night of his life." Iodem nodded and left, and Mia turned to Jenna with a grin. "Right, Jenna? You aren't going to have trouble keeping up, are you?"

Jenna gave her a jokingly haughty look. "I may have only done it with three men before, but I'll have you know that I gave each of them the best sex of their lives. Experience isn't everything."

Inwardly, Mia smirked. Jenna had a good point, but experience was something, and Mia had a lot more on her side than just experience. She didn't have the most popular hole in Imil by being easy(she made a point of not having sex with guys who failed to give her an orgasm the first time, or had a reputation for being rough). There was no question of which of them Issac was going to enjoy more.

Then she heard a choking sound. Jenna was leaning over, her hands to her face, looking as though she was about to cry. "Jenna?"

"I can't do this," she said in a choked voice. "It's Issac! He knows me, he -"

"Hey, relax!" She put her hands on Jenna's shoulders. "Just don't think of it like that, think of it as though you're someone else. You're not Jenna, Issac's little childhood friend who hides behind stuffy clothes... you're Jenna, sultry sex goddess! Go on, say it!"

"That's silly."

"It's not silly if you say it like you believe it. Besides, it's true. I mean, I wish I had your body."

"...Really?"

"Really." Actually, Mia was more than proud of the body she had, but Jenna was pretty hot herself, so there was no harm in the lie.

It's weird, giving pointers on how to seduce Issac to my rival... but this won't work if Jenna doesn't want to put out. Issac won't go for this unless it means getting Jenna. ...Besides, I'm actually starting to feel sorry for the poor bitch. I'd feel better if she did at least a decent job of pleasing Issac.

In truth, she was feeling guilty about the way she was just using Jenna to get at him. It almost made her want to reconsider her plan. But then she thought of spending the rest of her life wondering what it was like to have Issac's cock pumping into her, and she decided, screw Jenna - literally and figuratively.

"Come on," she prodded further. "Say it."

Jenna closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said in a sexy hiss, "I'm Jenna, sultry sex goddess!" Her eyes re-opened, and they flashed with seductive power. It was a rather overdone performance, and no respectable dick would go hard for it. But it gave Jenna the confidence she needed, and that was all that counted.

"Good! Now you're getting into it. Are you ready?"

"Oh, yes," Jenna said, then giggled.

"Good. Try practicing a little - flash your cleavage, or something."

They began to overhear male voices, gradually getting closer. One was Issac's.

"Look, this is just a sick idea! I don't even compete in Colosso for the prizes! You don't need to give me anything."

"Sir, you shame Lord Babi. What will people think when they hear the prize for Colosso was declined by the winner?"

"Look, how about let's not, and say we did? I'm fine with telling anyone who asks that I was well rewarded. Now let's get out of here."

"Sir, do not mistreat the fair ladies this way! They have been eagerly waiting for days to know the pleasure of a Colosso champion."

"I'm sure they'll get over it. Come on, let go."

"Sir, will you not even take a look at the women before so refusing them?"

Issac stumbled into the room, lightly shoved by the two guards behind him. "What difference could that ma- Jenna?"

Jenna smiled as the door closed behind him. "Hi, Issac."

Issac stared at her. "But- Whu- You? You've always been so refined, so..."

Her smiled broadened. "I guess it just goes to show that there are parts of a person you never see, huh, Issac?" She swayed her curvaceous hips, making her exposed belly dance, and leaned forward to be sure Issac was getting a good look at her cleavage. "Until the day that person chooses to... expose them to you..."

The act, much like Jenna's outfit, was lacking in subtlety. But that was understandable for someone of her limited experience, and Mia certainly had to give her an "A" for her new confidence. More to the point, while she knew more than a couple boys who would have just rolled their eyes at Jenna's obnoxious performance, Issac was staring in rapt attention. The plan was working perfectly.

Now to let the other shoe drop. "So, Issac..." - she stepped up next to Jenna - "...aren't you going to say hi to me, too?"
