Chapter 11: Lala's Losing Streak
"Found y..." Eleonora started her sentence but didn't finish it, falling silent after her eyes landed on Lala's figure. Her dirty, sweaty, and clearly not long after orgasm figure.
"My lady," the bodyguard muttered and awkwardly stood on one knee, unable to even look in the blonde's eyes in her immense embarrassment.
She expected her mistress to furrow her brow and cast a judgmental gaze at this shameful display. Or, maybe, to start berating her for leaving her side when she needed a bodyguard the most. Possibly even threaten to denounce her and end her servitude to the Kir'ador nobles.
Instead, Leo burst out laughing so loudly she made it even harder for the passersby to ignore the two.
"Wow," the countess said with a wink. "I see you're not wasting your time. Here I was, thinking my bodyguard got scared of the paparazzi so much she had to retreat. And it turns out you just got aroused from their attention and started pleasuring yourself, huh? I knew you were shameless, but that's bold even for you, babe."
"Y-yeah. Well, what can I do? A girl has needs!" she finally muttered and shrugged like a cartoon character.
Then she flinched since Leo gave her a hard buttslap, playing around with whom she thought was a naughty, fearless nudist. If only she knew how wrong she was... Or maybe she was at least somewhat correct? Lala recalled that wave of pleasure that covered her whole when she hid in the bushes. It went away minutes ago, but already felt so alien, like she was a totally different person back then. Arousal must've overtaken her personality in that moment of weakness.
"Or maybe that was my personality all along," a thought appeared in her head against her will, yet she quickly brushed it off.
"I'm sorry, my lady. I know I shouldn't have left you there."
"Don't worry about it too much. It's your first mission, and getting turned on from showing off to all of those gawking Earthians isn't new... Trust me, I recently nearly got abducted because of the same exact feeling."
"Will I get punished?" Lala meant to ask this with fear and guilt, yet it turned out almost joyful.
"We'll see," Leo nodded to her thoughtful servant. "I mean, I could always kick your slit until it's blue or tie your limbs together to make you jump around like a rabbit for a change..."
Lala gulped but couldn't notice the odd tingle in her nipples and pussy acting up again.
"...But I need you to be ready if we are attacked again. So let's think about this later."
"Y-yes, my lady," she said with gratitude while desperately trying to wipe the mud off her figure.
It didn't do much, and Lala's cheeks became rosy again. While Sanflarian women were allowed to do whatever they wanted while naked, it was still bad courtesy for a noble's servant to appear in such a messy state in public. Even if the public wasn't Sanflarian. Well, maybe except for the Fryion Province and its famed mud bathing, but this place was far from it either way. The countess once again looked at Lala with sympathy, understanding her peculiar state.
"Oh, I think I know how to make it so you don't have to be perceived as the dirty girl."
Leo clicked her fingers and, before Lala could even ask what she meant, dove right into the same mud puddle like it was a pile of fresh snow. The bodyguard gasped when she saw her countess roll around in the mud like a pig, doing mud angels and smearing the liquid all over her until she was even dirtier than Lala. She didn't even spare her famous mane, turning it into a squishy mess.
"My lady! W-why?"
"Now we're both dirty girls, so you won't be the only one!" the blonde giggled and smacked her bestie's butt again.
Lala couldn't help but laugh. Leo replied in kind with her head confidently leaned back. Soon, the two of them were walking on a paved park road in full view of the surrounding locals. The people either moved out of the way or pointed at the muddy beauties with laughs, although a couple of them offered medical assistance, probably thinking these two were insane.
Leo politely declined and led her friend to the nearest fountain to wash off the mud and give the locals a little show they could remember. Lala was still horribly ashamed, but at least now her gratitude and pride in her lady overshadowed that weakness and let her enjoy this moment of camaraderie. Lala truly was lucky to serve such an awesome noble.
Then why couldn't she just tell Leo the truth?
***
The day passed surprisingly quickly, and soon Lala again found herself embracing Leo in their king-sized bed. It felt so calm with Leo softly snoring beside Lala, her head resting on the bodyguard's boob, that she nearly forgot about how horrible today was. The emotions she felt from her public exposure grew more convoluted and confusing, but one thing was obvious: they prevented Lala from doing her job and protecting her lady like she was supposed to.
While the countess was asleep for some time already, Lala spent the last hour brooding about her past and future actions. Finally, she remembered her windstriking lessons and figured that the only way of beating her weakness was by training. She whined a little when she imagined herself "practicing" public nudity again, yet there was no other choice. If her career and loyalty were on the line, there was only one possible solution. Tonight, Lala was going streaking.
The bodyguard carefully freed herself from the sleeping countess' embrace and gave her a peck on the cheek as a thanks for her kindness. Then, she looked at the clock--it was midnight--and mustered up the courage to leave the comfort of the suite. There was no better way of facing her fears than going outside alone, and if that was what it took, Lala was ready. At least that's what she told herself to keep her heart from jumping out of her chest.
Lala got goosebumps as she strode through the hotel's lobby filled with bright lights and guests waiting for their rooms. She caught a few glances and a whistle but made sure to continue walking as if nothing was happening. Despite the storm of emotions raging inside of her. Soon, she was outside with a cool breeze caressing her naked body. Lala didn't really know where she was going, but she hoped that the hotel's building was large enough for her to find her way back in case she got lost.
"W-well, here goes nothing," Lala muttered to herself when her bare feet touched the asphalt.
It felt surreal to be scared of her own nudity like this, but Lala still couldn't shake the feeling off, even after almost a week spent on Earth. The streets were quiet at this hour, but not deserted: Lala still encountered occasional passersby and cars, who clearly saw her as well. Thankfully, most of them ignored the naked girl as if nothing was happening, though there were still occasional catcalls and honks, to which Lala smiled and waved, trying her best to imitate Leo.
Her thoughts became chaotic each time she walked under a lantern or her figure got basked in the headlights' beams. Yet she forced herself to walk on at a leisurely pace despite her mind telling her to flee. Soon, another feeling got added to Lala's already exhausting ordeal: her nipples got hard, and a tingle in her pussy came back. Thinking about what the people might've thought about her made her aroused again.
"Oh, Many-eyed, I can get addicted to this," she thought with a shy smile, turning the corner.
The next street was more crowded than the previous one. Its bars and nightclubs made sure some people stayed here long after the sunset. Even now Lala could see several groups drinking and loudly laughing outside. Once again, it took all of the girl's bravery to block her fears and walk onwards, diving right into the nearby crowd.
The people quickly noticed, pointing at her and exclaiming something in English. Unfortunately, Lala didn't understand a word, but she could tell they liked what they saw by their voices and expressions. A smile appeared on Lala's lips once again while she walked past the rowdy partygoers, her ears getting assaulted by their cheering. It felt different from how she felt before, though. Maybe her grins and giggles weren't so forced anymore.
Still, it was very hard to move forward. Lala's legs got weak, and she had to consciously force herself to move forward. It got even harder when several of the clubgoers around her pulled out their phones and started filming. One of them approached Lala, asking something and pointing at the camera. She nodded, and the man stood right beside her with his arm on her shoulder, posing for a picture taken by his friend.
