===== DAY EIGHT =====
"I've got a surprise for you," Trina said with a smile, as she lay next to me in bed gently stroking the hard-on I had awakened with that morning. A few minutes before, I had been blissfully asleep and dreaming of various erotic images, nothing coherent, just a general feeling of sexual pleasure and excitement. Trina, who was nothing if not perceptive of my moods and desires, had correctly guessed what my dreams had been about and chosen to awaken me by pressing her naked body against mine and sliding a gentle hand over my cock.
"What sort of surprise?" I asked as the fog of sleep drifted away and her pretty face came into focus.
"Just you wait, lover." She kissed me, then rose and headed for the door. "I'll see you down on deck."
I raised an eyebrow; it surprised me that she wasn't starting off the day by offering sex or even so much as a quick handjob. "Not getting dressed today?" I asked as she started to head out the door still entirely unclothed.
"Only if you really want me to."
I smiled back. "Far be it from me to cover you up. I'll be right down."
I arrived at the breakfast table about fifteen minutes later, and to my surprise found the Captain waiting. I had barely seen him since being introduced when we first came on board, and assumed that he preferred not to mingle with the passengers. Honestly, if I were him, I'd probably feel the same way. It would seem a little weird to intrude on their sexual fantasies.
"Good morning, Mr. Xavier," he said, standing and shaking my hand. "Please, do sit down."
"Good morning, Captain. I want to thank you for a very pleasant cruise so far. It's been an unforgettable experience."
We sat down and the Captain was brought a drink. I ordered orange juice and waited for whatever he had to say.
"I want to apologize, Mr. Xavier, for any discomfort caused to you by my brief discussion with the local law authorities last night," the Captain said. "Rest assured that the matter did not concern you in the slightest. The only time your name even came up was when I showed our passenger manifest, and they barely glanced at it."
"That's good to know," I said. "I figured that everything must be fine when we got underway last night, but I appreciate knowing for certain. Out of curiosity, what was it all about?"
"Well, that actually brings me to the reason why I needed to speak to you," the Captain said. "It seems that our other two guests were, shall we say, not as well-behaved as you have been. Without going into details which I am sure they would want kept confidential, they caused a bad situation in one of the nightclubs onshore and the police were summoned. To make a long story short, they took the next flight home and would be well-advised never to return."
"Did they have their escorts with them?" I asked, concerned. "Are they all right?"
"The ladies are perfectly fine. These kinds of situations happen sometimes, and our staff is well-instructed on how to deal with it."
"When the punches start flying, get out fast," Trina interjected.
"Exactly," the captain nodded. "The escorts assigned to them made it back to the ship perfectly safely. And we do appreciate your concern, Mr. Xavier."
I shrugged slightly. "I'm still not sure what this has to do with me."
Trina grinned with excitement. "Can I tell him, Captain?" she asked.
The Captain smiled slightly and gestured for her to do so.
"Well, X-man, to put it simply, you're the last guest on the ship," Trina said. "One man, eight women. And, given the situation, the resort has decided to offer you a discount for an additional companion. Anyone on the boat that you want is yours."
I blinked. "No kidding?"
"True!"
I glanced around the deck, and saw that all the ladies had turned in my direction, all smiling at me and striking various poses. My throat seemed to squeeze shut; I suddenly had no less than EIGHT gorgeous women, all of whom wanted me (just for the money, I know, but still), all ripe for the picking. Each of them seemed to be displaying what they obviously felt to be their best assets. Nikita cupped her large, natural tits in both hands and licked her own nipples. Akimi and Kiko had dressed in identical outfits, with coconut bikinis and short grass skirts. Julie sat with her legs displayed to best advantage and twirled her gorgeous red hair around her finger. Susie Q, dressed in a white bikini, simply stared at me with sultry eyes. The other two women, who had been assigned to the recently vacated guests and whose names I still didn't know, were dressed to play naughty; the blonde in a hot skin-tight red evening dress, and the petite brunette in a little schoolgirl's outfit, her hair in braids. Trina, secure in the knowledge that she was mine no matter what, simply relaxed in her chair and smirked at me
"What..." I started to say, but my throat was dry. I took a drink of water, and continued. "What sort of discount?" I asked.
"Half price," the Captain said. "Normally an additional companion would run four hundred dollars, but today our ladies are available for two hundred each."
I mentally tallied my remaining funds (it's not easy to do math under such circumstances) and rapidly came to a conclusion. "I'll take the lot," I said.
"I knew it," Trina grinned.
The women all came rushing up to me at once, with bright eyes and smiles, all telling me how great I was and competing to see who could be the first to embrace, kiss, or otherwise touch me. I felt more than a little overwhelmed, but it was a major rush to be the focal point of attention from so many hot, sexy women.
"Okay, girls, let him breathe," Trina said, making her way to my side. The ladies backed off just a little, but still clustered around smiling as if Christmas had come early.
"What have I done?" I asked, half-jokingly.
"Oh, don't worry, we'll be gentle," Susie Q said.
"Speak for yourself," Nikita growled, giving her own tits a squeeze.
"Well, I'll be leaving you alone now, Mr. Xavier," the Captain said as he stood up. "We'll be within sight of Echo Beach any time now, and I assume you'll want all of your companions to come ashore with you. I think you'll have a fairly extraordinary final day with us, sir. Now, if you'll excuse me?"
* * * * *
It might have seemed an odd choice for how to spend my time immediately following the "purchase" of seven hot and sexy women dedicated to my pleasure, but the first thing I did after finishing breakfast was to go and have a nap.
"I want to save my energy for the Island," I explained to the girls. "And, of course, for the party on board ship between sunset and sunrise. Besides, there are some of you whom I don't know very well yet, and Trina can take some time to tell you all about what I like and what I don't; and to be blunt, what makes me want to give extra tips."
"How many bisexual ladies do we have?" Trina asked, holding up a hand.
All the girls exchanged knowing smiles and raised their hands as well.
"All right, that's one matter taken care of right there," Trina nodded. "We'll figure out the rest on our own, lover. Go build up your strength. But tell me, who should come to wake you up?"
"Um... draw lots," I replied, shrugging.
