"Um, Alzi," Salis says, stirring from my sleep. "Why. Um, what is going on?"
"Hmm?" cos out, but I don't know to whom that was directed. Sea's ritual thing worked for tonight at least.
Why is there a third in this bed? She's matching my position. Horned head resting on Salis's chest, hand over the new little life in Salis's womb. But the strange woman had golden hair and horns, looking right in the eyes.
"Who are you?" I ask.
"Is she you?" Salis asks. "You both asked the sa question."
'Check your skills,' Space sends out. 'Sorry, Mother told about sothing strange coming your way and asked for a bit of help.'
Hat of a caregiver: Gain an extra body when needing to watch over your kids. The body will share all your mories, and it gives you all the mories it gets. It will answer as you, act as you, and be you in a second place as long as your kids are nearby. If it moves too far from your kids, it will disappear till you are near your kids again.
'What does this an?'
'You have two bodies now. I'm not sure if you'll get more out of this class. But you now have a body that works to let you always help your kids. It does need to sleep and eat. It can't get pregnant, too scary with the whole disappearing thing, but almost everything else is possible, like breastfeeding.'
"Alzi, what is going on?" Salis asks. "It seems like I'm a mirror, if you ignore the color."
"I guess this is what I would look like without all the goddesses claiming ," I say. I reach out, and both bodies move together. The golden body moves her hand under Salis while my main moves over. I feel both my arms being grabbed and getting grabbed.
"This is you?"
"I don't know. My skill says it is , so you just have more of on your breasts?" I suggest. 'Does a pregnant woman count as a kid?'
'No, it is the other kids that are letting the body stick around. Get around your kids and you'll find it easier to differentiate between the bodies, and so distance will make it easier. You'll get the flow quickly, I think, and I'll start working on making it easier to be close and work them like your right and left hand. Let it help you get your kids back ho while you deal with the silly Phoenixes.'
"You're pregnant, by the way, in case you didn't know," I say.
"Yes. I'm sorry if you fell tricked into it," Salis says. "I. I ii haven't been with with another for a very long ti."
"I enjoyed it. Took a very different style this ti around," I say. "How do you feel? I slept well sohow."
"I know I'm not my old self, but I have a path," Salis says. "I'm not scared to have you around anymore. Mother will be banned from my house. She'll ruin again if I let her near , but I can grow into keeping the Sea in our control. You have our house behind you still. Tied together by a child. Thank you. You helped tear down the walls I don't need anymore. Iii know all my fears are still there. I know we've both got those to figure out. I don't know how this all works, but we can figure that out together."
"Together works for . You aren't looking to marry , are you? I've had a lot of won randomly say they love ," I say.
"It is strange hearing you speak twice. But no, I do not wish to marry you. I need a smaller family. Friends will be nice. Good friends."
"Good, I've got too many wives as it is. I would love to be good friends with you. Sorry to leave you so fast after getting you pregnant, but war is coming, and I have so bitches to visit."
"I wish you the best. I'm a little sore, so I'll be a little late."
"That was going easy on you!"
"Four hours of it is not easy! I'm an old woman, you know. Now let the old get so rest while you figure out this thing."
"Daring to tease a dragon while in her bed. I'll give the punishnt to your sister. Shyla! I need an extra dress," I scream out.
The door squeaks open, my maid pokes her head in, and freezes. "Gold."
"Yes. There are two of now. I need a dress for her. In fact, I don't know if she can carry anything in a ring, so she may need a maid. I'll ask that, actually."
'Hey, Space, does she have rings on her back?'
'No, but she can access your storage space.'
"She can access my rings, so never mind. I just need a bunch of simple dresses for her to wear. She, that body? She is in charge of caring for my children. No need to show off, I just need to be able to care for, watch over, and play with my kids."
"The Goddesses gave you a second body, one that looks as you would if you weren't a champion, your Highness?"
"Yes."
"Is that body pregnant?"
"No, and it can't get pregnant."
"Ok, ok. Then I need you to stand up, and we'll get you dressed, your Highness," Shyla says, sliding into the room. "The plan for today is that Fluvis is packing up and getting ready to move to the city. Is your body double able to split from you, your Highness? If so, then it should help Fluvis with the move. Then we are going to head off to Phoenix's realm. Shimr thinks it should be a short trip. After that, we head back to the capital. The Queen believes Nature has started the war. She's seeing increased activity on the edge of the forests. The Kitsune are saying the dragons are moving as well. They'll handle them for now, but it would be best for the Phoenixes to take over. Shimr has gotten so to join, but you have to show up before the Queen to get them to do anything truly." She works quickly to dress my bodies. She wraps my breasts well, making wonder if my bodies can have different sized breasts. My golden body gets a simple green dress. Hiding most of my curves and my cleavage.
Then my main body got dressed. This ti, I'm actually eting a queen instead of a stuck-up old Duchess. So, back to showing off everything I've got. Tits, tattoos, curves, thighs, ass, legs, and anything Shyla thinks is important. All in a tight, fiery red dress. A rainbow of gemstones in my necklace and a crown braid for my hair with ten-inch heels to have towering over everyone. Nobody could miss , and their eyes wouldn't be leaving my body for a while with all there is to look at.
"Is this ok, your Highness?" Shyla asks. "I've got other dresses that are appropriate to et a Queen in if you would like to show less."
"No, this is perfect," I say, spinning around in the mirror. I can see myself through the second body, but it is a bit fuzzy and strange to focus on.
"You are a beautiful woman, Alzi," Salis says. "I wish you the best with the phoenixes."
"Thank you," I say. "And good luck with the Duchy."
"Thank you."
Eventually, I have to stop staring at myself in the mirror and head down. I had to walk down the stairs side-by-side with my bodies so I didn't fall over when getting on or off them. I need to learn how to operate them independently soon. Hopefully, Space is right, and I just need space. But on the ground floor, I run into Shimr. I'm guessing Sarania spread the news about my body as she hardly looked at my second body.
She's in a similar dress to mine, just without the windows showing off tattoos.
"Shyla, do you have a collar and leash?" I ask. "I need the Phoenixes to know that I'm going to be in control. Their help is a requirent from the Goddesses and not sothing they get to choose. No better than proving Shimr is going to be mine completely."
"Here you go, your Highness," Shyla says, offering a black leather collar and leash.
"My Mother won't be happy."
"I didn't ask, or are you going back on your promise?"
"I'm yours, and we will help you."
"Good," I say. Shimr bites her lip but lets put the collar around her neck. I give the leash a pull, and she follows like a good puppy. I put a hand on her belly and feel my child kick. "Do you think you deserve to be married to ?"
"Yes," Shimr says. "I helped you. I tried to get Elora to free you and marry your lovers. I did what I could to help the family. I love you and will serve you."
"I did like you pampering . You were gentle then. But I struggle to believe you tried to get Elora to marry my Mother."
"We didn't have much ti to do it. Will you give another chance to pamper you? We have a great public bath. I'll service you there personally. However, you wish, even with a collar, but it will need to be able to withstand the heat. Everything is allowed, everyone will see the first Princess doing as you ask."
"Safety?"
"Perfectly safe. You could bend over and rail , and no one will bother us. My Mother will hate it, but will guarantee our safety. I'll bring my maids and Geta to help. Sarania will be there as well."
"Then I expect it. If it doesn't happen, this will be our only kid together. As is, I don't know if I want to deal with you after this stupid trip."
"Yes, my Love," Shimr says. She pulls into a hug. I accept it and use her for balance as I try to get my second body to walk to my kids.
I stumble a lot in the hallway, but the farther I get from my main body, the easier it is to walk. By the ti I make it to the nursery, I'm walking like normal. Petunia is waiting for . She opens the door with a smile, and I get to work helping with breakfast for the babies. They don't seem to mind the new body, reacting the sa to it as they did with yesterday, so I accept it. I can feel their love and deal with the stupidity of the world at the sa ti.
I don't know if I could handle a third body, but I can use two well enough.
