Previously in Frankengeld. Damion and Helena have attended the first meeting of the Mystery Club. The members have decided they want more clues so it has been agreed that members will seek these out. Damion and Helena to look for the fateful letter, Poppy and Philip for the location of the cart, and Freida to ascertain the crime scene. Lord Philip explained why he was in self exile, Madam Minna gratified herself in the privy with Damion, and when Damion and Helena got home they found a very drunk Dr. Hoffer on the doorstep!
Now read on ...
13th June, in the year 1784, in the evening.
The idea, suggested by Anya, that we use our clothes as tokens in the card game, seemed much more reasonable an idea so, following Anya's instructions we all retired to our rooms to change, and then returned to the kitchen table wearing exactly four items of clothing each.
Anya had insisted that one item must be a hat and Helena was as delighted to see Yani wearing the hat she had won for him at the fair. She was wearing a simple bonnet, Una a little maid's cap, and I was wearing a broad brimmed travelling hat. Anya herself had pulled on an old, black, battered, conical hat from somewhere. It would have added considerably to her height, if it had been stiff, but the material had worn and it now was bent in the middle so that the point now sagged down to the brim. She looked like the traditional 'witch' from a fairy tale.
Having explained the rules Anya moved on to tell us about winning and losing. "Right," she said. "The person who gets the fewest tricks discards an item of clothing, with the hat being the last to go."
We looked at each other in anticipation of an interesting evening.
"If someone," Anya continued. "Discards their hat, and is naked, then they can play another round, but if they lose they've got to pay a forfeit. And the winner of that round chooses the forfeit."
That seemed fair and we all settled down to play. Anya dealt the cards and it soon was evident that she was very good at the game. I found it quite hard holding all the cards in my hand, for nearly all were dealt each round, and sometimes I searched in vain for a good play to make. A card I was sure was somewhere in my hand but, when it came to the ideal trick, somehow could not be found.
We each lost games and piles of clothes were scattered around the kitchen. Helena and Una, having discarded their blouses early on, opted to play with their cards held close to their chests. I liked that approach because as they selected cards they pushed their breasts in a most enticing way.
Yani had elected to lose his trousers first and sat with his cards in his lap. His member, semi erect now, was more and more exposed during each round of play as cards were played and the hand of cards he was holding became smaller and smaller. I caught sight of Una leaning over to take a peep, though whether she was trying to cheat by looking at the cards, or trying to get a good look at what they partially concealed, I did not know. I preferred to assume she was taking a natural, healthy, interest in a young man's phallus than that she was a cheat.
After an hour of play, we found ourselves all dressed in just a hat, facing a fully dressed Anya. Then Yani lost his hat. He was about to defer and leave the table but Helena spoke up, "Try another round Yani, your luck must change. If you win then you could take the losers hat as a forfeit." She grinned at him, looking as if she would be happy to give up her bonnet to this handsome lad.
He lost again, and Anya won. We all held our breath waiting to see what punishment he would be given. Would it be to stand on the table and sing a folk song? Would it be to clean the privy? Or perhaps run up and down the street in the rain stark naked?
"Yani," said Anya, her voice betraying no emotions as usual. "Pleasure your mistress to the best of your ability."
The lad stood and walked over to Helena and, before I could act to restore proper manners, got her to stand and then bend over the table. She lay face down, grinning and studying the grain of the wood, as he crouched down and applied his tongue to her exposed quim and anus.
"You two still playing?" asked Anya of myself and Una.
Una and I dragged our eyes from the carnal scene at the end of the table and we both nodded. Anya dealt. Helena should have been given a hand, she was still wearing her bonnet, but she didn't seem interested in continuing the game. She gasped and moaned quietly by my side.
It was hard to concentrate and, as a consequence, I lost. The only compensation was that Una and I had exactly the same number of tricks, so we had both lost. We obediently put aside our hats as Anya dealt us in again, not even asking if we wanted to play. To be frank I was beginning to anticipate what was going to happen if we lost, and was not unhappy with the idea. I did however have my pride and tried to win as many tricks as possible.
Next to me things had become much more noisy and athletic. Yani had turned Helena over and she was now lying on her back, with her legs dangling over the edge of the table, as he stood and vigorously copulated with her. The whole table was shaking and her gasps of pleasure were getting very distracting.
"Helena," I said, sorting through my cards looking for some high values.
"Yes uh Damion uh," she replied.
"I'm trying to concentrate here."
"Sorry uh master," she replied. "I will uh try to uh keep uh it quiet .... oh lordy lordy."
She failed in her efforts and, as Una and I played our last cards, she shuffled backwards and pulled Yani on top of her so they were both now on top of the table. His renewed thrusts caused her to gently scream.
I had lost. Anya looked at me and said, "Master, your forfeit is to pleasure your maidservant. And not to hold back from giving her what she has wanted for days."
Una got onto the table next to Helena and spread her legs. She reached between her thighs and ran her fingers over her sex, pulling her quim apart to reveal herself to me. The other hand was at her mouth and she sucked two fingers in a most erotic, and suggestive, manner. I decided to pay the forfeit even though, as master of the house, I could have refused. As I climbed onto the table, trembling in anticipation of the delight of pleasuring such a beautiful woman, I saw Anya collect up her pack of cards.
Now I will admit I was distracted. And I will admit it was something only seen out of the corner of my eye. But it seemed to me that Anya held out her hand and all the cards jumped from the table to join the ones she held. And neatened themselves up without her having to tap them on the table.
"I will see you on the morrow," said Anya, and went upstairs, though by now I wasn't really paying her much attention. I was too busy trying to push my member into my new maidservant. Her sex was tight, much tighter than Helena's, but once I had wriggled the head of my phallus in, she completed the penetration by pulling energetically on my buttocks. I groaned, and she gasped, with pleasure as my member became fully engulfed in warm, welcoming, flesh. A massive thunderbolt rang out overhead as if the gods themselves were annoyed by our coupling, but by the time I had made a few thrusts I was totally committed to our little table-top orgy. The gods themselves could not have stopped me.
As Yani and I plunged into our respective partners I mused on the quality of kitchen table the old doctor had purchased. An oaken table strong enough to take the weight of four adults, and well constructed enough to cope with the side to side motion generated by phalluses being hammered into willing vaginas. There was a lot of squeaking and groaning sounds from the table, almost as much as from the four of us on top, but it steadfastly refused to collapse.
Helena made signs to Yani that she wished to be on top and he obediently lay under her, his phallus pointing skyward. She clambered over him and plunged her sex down to impale herself on his magnificent phallus. Seeing this Una indicated to me that she would like to do the same and soon I was looking up at her, clutching at her wonderful little breasts, and trying to keep control of my urge to ejaculate.
It felt like the two ladies were competing for the title of 'most energetic copulation', if such a competition exists. Both Yani and I grunted and clenched our teeth as the two women lifted their hips and then slammed themselves down onto us. I looked at Una, above me, a sheen of sweat building up on her taut torso. And Helena, to the side, with droplets of sweat rolling in little rivulets down her generous breasts. they both had their mouths open and both were rolling their eyes with pleasure. And I was beginning to lose control. Soon I would ejaculate if I didn't get some pause in this remorseless forfeit.
I was also beginning to think I would like to retire to bed with Helena, once I had had my fill of Una, of course. But to do that I needed to break Una's fascination with me, redirect her passion at someone more her own age and status. I formulated a plan, which first required Una to be facing away from me instead of constantly watching my every movement and facial expression.
"Let us pleasure like animals," I said. "On all fours, and side by side. What do you think, ladies?"
"Oh yes," said Helena.
