"Jo and Julie were both like jockeys riding horses!" Daniel exploded. "They both had sex with men right in front of me!"
Casey nodded sympathetically. She wore dark eye makeup, an extremely tight shirt which showed off her breasts, and a short miniskirt. One could easily see the outlines of the double banded rider on her back, its heavy v shaped knuckle bones sticking out from her shirt. Casey and her husband had worked hard on each other and recently had been richly rewarded when their masters matured even more, becoming stronger on their back and in their minds.
But Casey was the only friend Daniel had left, even if she was part of the Hive now. He had no one else to talk to.
"I tried to talk to her afterwards. Tried to explain how upset it made me," said Daniel.
"And what did she say?" Casey asked, putting a hand on his arm.
"The Hive demands it," said Daniel, raising his eyebrows in an exaggerated way.
"Hm," said Casey. "Poor Daniel." She stroked his flat back with a caring touch. "Perhaps I can help."
"Help?" Daniel laughed. "How?"
"By talking to her for you," said Casey.
Daniel laughed again. "In case you haven't noticed,
you're one of them
. Why would you possibly take my side?"
"It's not about taking sides, sweet Daniel," said Casey, giving him that hypnotic look he had seen all too often lately. "Yes, I'm part of the Hive, and so is Joanna and now so is Julie. But that doesn't mean they have to have sex on a public beach."
"It doesn't?"
"No, of course not," said Casey. "Tom and I don't have sex in public places." She took a breath. "It's true that the Hive sends Jo and Julie out on assignments, and they have to complete their assignments they are given. But it sounds like they are flaunting their status in your face."
"That's right! That's
exactly
what she's doing!" said Daniel, feeling vindicated.
"Then let
me
talk to her," said Casey. "What do you have to lose?"
Daniel considered, then nodded.
"Great!" Casey activated her Pad. "Get me Joanna Harris."
A holo of Joanna appeared, wearing a sexy low cut shirt that her breasts were practically falling out of.
She must be working today
, Daniel thought bitterly.
"Casey! Long time no see! How are you, dear?"
"Wonderful! My master just got its second band!" said Casey.
"I'm so happy for you!" Jo gave a broad smile. "How does it feel?"
"Loving it!" Casey declared. "The thicker bones feel so nice and firm against my back!"
"I know!" Jo grinned.
"Listen, Jo, Daniel is right here besides me, and has been giving me an earful about your marital problems-"
"Oh, Casey, I'm so sorry he's gotten you involved!" said Jo compassionately.
"Don't be sorry, dear. What are best friends for? Listen, I was thinking we could get together and talk, girl to girl. I just
know
I could help smooth things out between you."
"I'd like that!" said Joanna brightly.
"I know you would." Casey gave Jo an intimate look. "Why don't we get together at 12, at your place?"
"That would be fine! See you then, dear!" The holoimage of his wife faded.
"See?" said Casey.
"You'll accomplish nothing," said Daniel.
"Wait and see," said Casey.
When it was nearing noon, Casey turned to Daniel. "Are you ready to go?"
"Go where?"
"To your home," said Casey, as if she were talking to a retard.
Daniel frowned. "I thought
you
were going to talk to Joanna."
"I am. But it's like couples counseling. The couple has to be there to counsel." She pulled him by the arm. "Come on. Are things so bad that I really have to persuade you to go to your own home?"
********
Jo greeted Casey with laughs and a warm hug and a kiss on the lips. They both had an alien gleam in their eyes. Daniel again wondered how this was going to play out.
"I'd welcome you too dear, but I
know
you don't like my touch anymore," said Joanna.
"That's not true, and you know it," said Daniel.
"Oh? When was the last time we had sex?" Joanna said.
"Jo! Daniel! Let's sit down like adults and talk about this," said Casey. She had them sit on the sofa, with Daniel sandwiched between her and Joanna.
"Now Daniel, you know that Jo loves you very much, don't you?" Casey asked.
"She has a funny way of showing it," said Daniel.
"She
does
love you," said Casey firmly. "And Jo, you love Daniel, don't you?"
"Only with all my heart," she said in a sincere, loving way that some of Daniel's resistance started to melt.
"Of
course
you do." And then, for the next ten minutes, Casey started to talk about their relationship. And the importance of communication, and respect, and listening to others. As she talked, a strong musky odor started to come out of her rider. Daniel was distracted by the two attractive women around him and the seriousness of the situation. He noticed the odor without really thinking about it. But before long it was in his lungs and then his bloodstream. And before long he was seriously sexually aroused.
"-and you are
such
a handsome man, Daniel! I've admired you from afar for years!" said Casey, giving him a hungry look. She turned to Jo. "Is it all right if I say that?"
"Of course!" Jo assured her. "I would expect
any
woman my handsome husband worked with to be attracted to him!"
Casey's hand started to roam Daniel's thigh. It was a simple touch, but Daniel was so aroused that he got an erection just from the movements of his fingertips. Daniel hadn't had sex in a while, a
long
while, and his body found Casey's touch
very
exciting. He looked over at Joanna to see if she sensed what was going on and she gave him a wolfish smile, as if she not only knew but also
approved
, which only excited him even more.
"Yes," said Casey, rubbing her hand over Daniel's chest. "A very handsome husband indeed." She moved her lips closer to him. To Daniel, her lips were like a magnet. It was
Daniel
, not Casey, who initiated the kiss. He felt a thrill go through his body, and his penis got very, very hard as he felt Casey's soft, plush lips against his.
As Daniel pulled back he whispered, "I'm sorry. I don't know what's gotten into me."
"There's nothing to be sorry about, is there, Jo?" Casey asked.
"Not at all," said Joanna. "You can kiss her again, Honey, if you like."
And so when Casey dipped her head again Daniel did
exactly
that. Jo smiled approvingly as Casey and Daniel wrapped their hands around each other like lovers.
"I've always wanted you Daniel," said Casey. "I told Jo that, and we arranged this," she said, kissing him again.
"
This
?" Daniel's foggy mind was finding it increasingly hard to think.
"It's my way of saying I'm sorry, Daniel," said Jo. She looked contrite as her husband kissed another woman besides her. "Sorry for all the men I've slept with. Sorry for how I had sex with Nigel at the Swim Club, without considering your feelings."
Casey took off her shirt. Her control collar quickly came next. The redhead's heavy breasts sprung out at him. Daniel's eyes went wide.
"Consider this... just compensation," Jo explained, as Casey worked his shirt off. While Casey was undressing, so was Jo, working off her own shirt and control collar. Daniel's mind felt like it was wrapped in cotton. The musky smell was deep in his bloodstream.
"Compensation?" Daniel said, as Casey worked his pants off. Her own pants came next.
"I slept around, which wasn't fair to you," said Jo. "There's no way I can fix that, so now I am giving you permission to do the same, with your dear friend Casey."
Casey pulled down her underwear. Daniel saw the green rock dangling from the small chain between her legs. He saw her big, fleshy orange cuntlips, and the green glowing inverted V with the dots under it just above her vagina, just like Jo's.
