Chapter 3

Sardi’s priority the next morning was to find Aelfi and to confirm that she had avoided the crowd bewitching of the solstice celebration. He dressed and ate breakfast quickly, glad that his father was already absent, and headed off for the grain fields.

Sleep had come late the night before as he had so much going on inside his head:

- The enormity of what his father had pulled off with his sham of the Goddess appearing;

- Trying to figure out what his father’s reasons were for solidifying the power he already had;

- How had his father controlled Fliranta?; and probably the biggest question

- what had he himself done to smash the altar?

One other thing had troubled him; he kept flashing back to images of Fliranta on her knees with his father’s cock in her mouth. He could vividly recall the sight of Rose’s slick pussy and of her sister Myrtle licking it. Those images had made his cock hard once again, despite his disgust at his father’s actions.

When he arrived at the first sluice gate he saw that Aelfi was already there. What was a surprise was that his best friend, normally in perpetual motion, was sitting down. Sardi joined her; again surprised that Aelfi had not greeted him as she normally did. His friend seemed deep in thought so he remained quiet, giving her time. At last she turned to him, her expression one of concern.

“What happened last night?” she asked.

“I’m not really sure,” Sardi answered. “I think the mushroom juice my father put into the food did something to everyone.”

“It did something?” Aelfi asked in disbelief. “I’ll say it did something! One moment my mom and father are normal then the next they are crazy. Father claimed he was stroking the bark of a tree that was on the other side of the field. Mother lay on her back and started muttering about how the lights in the sky were chasing each other!”

Aelfi’s description of what she saw and heard pretty much matched what Sardi had experienced.

“And then everybody was saying they could see the Earth Mother’s face in the moon,” she exclaimed excitedly. “They were on their bellies moaning their devotion to her and the Druids and then the Goddess spoke to them!”

“Ah, that wasn’t really the Earth Mother,” Sardi informed her. “That voice was actually Fliranta, I crept round behind the altar and spotted her.”

“Fliranta?” Aelfi asked. “Are you sure? Oh, never mind. Then this flash of light struck the altar and your father was knocked off of his feet. He got up and staggered around for a bit and then told us that it was a sign that the Earth Mother was pleased with us.”

Sardi hadn’t witnessed this part and was intrigued as to how his father had explained things.

“Why would the Goddess destroy the altar if she was pleased?” he asked.

“Your father said that the Goddess considered last night’s sacrifice so special and that it had pleased her so much, that she never wanted that altar to be used ever again.”

Sardi laughed. He had to give his father credit for thinking on his feet. He turned to Aelfi and took one of her hands between both of his.

“Another sham,” he told her. “I can’t tell you how I did it Aelfi, but that bolt of light was my doing, it came out of my hand!”

Aelfi’s eyes widened at this revelation and her hand squeezed his tightly.

“You can do magic now?” Aelfi asked, lowering her voice to a whisper.

“Maybe. I don’t know,” Sardi answered. “I just pointed at the altar and the light poured from my hand.”

His friend looked at him with wonder.

The next few weeks were filled with long days of hard work for the Damnonii as the time for harvesting the grain drew near. Sardi and Aelfi grew ever closer and had even awkwardly shared their first kisses. The boy didn’t experience any further dreams or visions but he did have recurring thoughts about the sex that he had witnessed.

It was the repeated images of Myrtle languidly licking the length of her twin’s pussy that led to the next exciting episode for Sardi. He caught a glimpse of the girl heading towards the loch and impulsively decided to follow her.

When she reached the shore of the loch, Myrtle walked along the water’s edge. It seemed to Sardi that she knew where she was going and he continued to follow without being seen. The older girl gingerly squeezed through some bushes and he momentarily lost sight of her.

Sardi moved a little further away from the loch-side before approaching the bushes. He didn’t want to blunder through the same gap that Myrtle had used only to find himself bumping in to her. He cautiously eased his way through the vegetation until he could see a small clearing. Myrtle stood on the edge of the loch and as Sardi watched she removed her clothing. He was close enough to have a very clear view of all of her charms as they were uncovered.

“By the Gods she is beautiful!” Sardi thought to himself.

Myrtle was slim with small round breasts that sat high on her chest. Her pubic hair was still quite sparse and Sardi could see her nether lips peeking from below it. Once again he felt his cock harden.

Myrtle left her clothes and began to wade out into the waters of the loch. Sardi was disappointed as her silky smooth skin submerged and the thrill of being able to examine her body was lost for the moment. Just then he heard rustling in the bushes. It sounded as if it was coming from the self-same gap that Myrtle had squeezed through to reach the little clearing.

“Maybe this is a well-known spot amongst the girls,” Sardi thought to himself. “Maybe I’m about to get the chance of seeing another girl naked. It might be her twin, Rose! Maybe they’ll have sex again!”

To his surprise but undoubted pleasure it wasn’t Rose who appeared from the bushes but his very own Aelfi. Sardi almost forgot to breathe. Was he about to see his best friend naked?

“Hi Myrtle,” Aelfi called to the other girl.

“Hi Aelfi!” she replied. “Come on in. The water is cold but it’s okay once you get used to it.”

Sardi was beside himself in anticipation. He watched Aelfi take her hide dress in both hands and then she pulled it up and over her head. She wore nothing underneath and so he was treated to her naked form in all its glory. Despite the fact that she had mere swelling where her breasts would eventually fill out, despite the fact that she had only a light fuzz where her pubic hair would thicken, she still looked like the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.

Aelfi turned and waded slowly into the loch, making her way over to where Myrtle was mostly submerged. She shivered as the cool water met her warm limbs and all too soon for Sardi, she too was submerged below the surface of the loch and hidden from his prying eyes.

The two girls were soon cavorting around each other and Sardi was treated to tantalising glimpses of their bare chests as the leaped and tried to pull each other under. At other times they dived which resulted in their pert bottoms being visible for a moment or two. It was enough to keep Sardi riveted to the scene. Luckily for him the best was yet to come. Eventually the two girls tired and by mutual consent they began wading back to the shore.

Sardi’s breath caught as more and more of their exciting female flesh emerged from the water, until he had the glorious sight of both girls facing him and displaying all of their charms.

“Let’s lie down and let the sun dry us,” Myrtle suggested.

“Great idea!” Aelfi agreed.

Both of them lay down on the grass in the little clearing, unfortunately (so far as Sardi was concerned) with their feet pointed away from Sardi’s hiding place. After some time had passed in companionable silence, Aelfi asked the older girl a question.

“Myrtle, have you ever kissed a boy?”

Myrtle rolled onto her side and raised an arm so that she could rest her head on one hand.

“Why are you asking?” Myrtle enquired.

“Well... , “ Aelfi hesitated, clearly somewhat embarrassed.

“Is it Sardi?” Myrtle giggled. “Have you two been playing kissing games?”

Aelfi blushed, but managed to control her nervousness and forced herself to reply.

“Well, we have kissed a few times, but it feels as if there should be more,” she confessed.

“More in what way?” Myrtle asked, her interest now truly piqued.

“Don’t get me wrong,” Aelfi tried to explain. “I like kissing him and I would like to do it more, but I always imagined it would be, like, more exciting than it is.”

“Maybe you’re not doing it right,” suggested Myrtle.

“How can we not be doing it right?” Aelfi asked innocently. “There’s only one way to kiss. He puts his lips on mine and that’s it!”

Aelfi started to get annoyed as the older girl laughed.

“I’m sorry, Aelfi. I’m not laughing at you, I’m laughing at the idea that there is only one way to kiss. Here, come over and show me how Sardi kisses you.”

“What! You want me to kiss you? But you’re a girl,” Aelfi squirmed.

“It’s only practice kissing,” Myrtle countered. “How are you ever going to get better if no one shows you how? Now come on, show me how Sardi kisses you.”

Somewhat reluctantly Aelfi moved over beside Myrtle and then very tentatively leaned forward until her lips met the older girl’s. After a few moments of maintaining the contact she pulled her head back.

“Is that all you do?” Myrtle enquired. “No wonder you’re thinking there should be more!”

From his spot in the bushes Sardi was conflicted. He found the sight of the two girls naked and kissing very hot indeed but he was uncomfortable with where the conversation was going.

“Are they suggesting that I’m not a good kisser?” he thought.

His uncomfortable thoughts were cut short when he heard Myrtle speak again.

“Here, come back to me and let me kiss you,” she said.

As Aelfi’s lips descended towards Myrtle’s, the older girl tilted her head so that their noses wouldn’t bump and get in the way. She met Aelfi’s mouth and immediately let her tongue trace along her lower lip. After a moment of doing this, Myrtle gently caught the lip between her teeth and pulled on it. Her tongue emerged once more and she tried to force it into Aelfi’s mouth but with no success. Myrtle ended the kiss and pulled back.

“Aelfi, relax and let your lips open up. I promise, you’ll really like it. Let’s try again.”

Sardi was watching avidly, taking in all of the detail that myrtle was demonstrating. He saw their heads coming together again and took mental note of how gentle Myrtle was. He could see that the older girl was swivelling her head slightly in a motion that moved her lips across Aelfi’s.

“It’s almost as if her lips are caressing Aelfi’s” he thought.

Meanwhile Myrtle progressed to nibbling on Aelfi’s lower lip once more and then her tongue emerged and pressed into the younger girl’s mouth. Sardi clearly heard a soft moan coming from his best friend and then he saw Aelfi’s little tongue emerging to play with Myrtle’s. Aelfi eventually pulled away and she gasped for breath. Myrtle giggled.

“You have to breathe through your nose,” she advised. “Want to practice some more?”

“Sure!” Aelfi replied eagerly. “That was just ... wow ... it’s just incredible.”

The girls reached for each other and began kissing again. Sardi reckoned his cock was harder than it had ever been before. As he heard Aelfi moaning softly once more, he promised that he was going to try this kind of kissing with her as soon as possible.

“Oh baby, you are getting me so hot,” Myrtle moaned as she pulled back from the kiss.

Aelfi looked at her quizzically.

“What do you mean – hot?” she asked.

Myrtle thought about that for a moment, thinking of how to explain. Eventually she thought of something.

“When we were kissing just now,” she began, “when you were moaning into my mouth. What were you feeling?”

Aelfi thought about the question and then answered.

“I was feeling really good. Like tingling all over and it was as if I had little birds fluttering in my belly.”

“That’s a good start,” Myrtle encouraged. “When you’re kissing, does Sardi touch you?”

“Of course he touches me,” Aelfi laughed. “He has his arms around me and his lips are touching mine.”

“No silly!” Myrtle joined in Aelfi’s laughter. “Kiss me again and I’ll show you what I mean.”

Sardi watched Aelfi’s head descend towards Myrtle’s once more. The two girls progressed through the same stages as before until their tongues were gently duelling and Aelfi was moaning once again. At that point Myrtle switched things. Her lips began to lay a trail of soft, moist, kisses along Aelfi’s jaw and down her exposed throat. Then her tongue joined in and she licked slowly at the soft skin and small hairs on Aelfi’s neck.

Sardi could hear Aelfi’s moans increase in their frequency and their intensity. As he spied on the girls, he saw one of Myrtle’s hands gliding up Aelfi’s side until it was stroking the younger girl’s nipple in a circular motion.
