(Chapter 11 in an ongoing series. You can think of Chapters 1 - 10 as section 1 or Book 1. Not sure how many more chapters but at least a few more. Anyway, thank you for reading. Hope you enjoy.)
The day after that glorious night, John woke up a brand new man. There was an extreme happiness and satisfaction in him. Although he didn't sleep much, both girls kept him up for quite some time. There was a new swagger to his demeanor. It was subtle, but many noticed. They found him more relaxed. More confident, more assured of himself. He dove into his duties with vigor and newfound motivation for his future endeavors.
While the anxiety and weight of the crown felt more like a stifling force, that night with both of the women he loved so much solidified a new growing confidence. It also helped that he was taking his training seriously. Where at first he detested waking up that early to put in strenuous physical work, he now embraced it.
The Pope was still very impatient. He tried to continue his campaign to shore up interest. Many of the kingdom's people were interested in a new monarch. Still, they also pointed out that although most of the empire suffered from incompetence at the top, many powerful families were still raking in the benefits of instability and unchecked corruption.
Slowly, the biggest threats to the kingdom were growing into existential threats. The raiding bands became emboldened. At the edges of the kingdom, some towns and fiefdoms were falling under the rule of warlords who slaughtered the existing officials and took what they wanted and either continued further in or settled the area, installing their own organizations. Unlike his father, who did not negotiate with barbarians, the king struck deals. He had figured as long as they paid a big enough tribute, he could look the other way. Publicly, he tried to show that he was a fierce defender of his citizens. But privately, he culled and coerced the royal council to allow his worst ambitions to bear fruit.
Most of the old guard, still faithful to the old king, slowly dissipated. The ones who stuck around saw that drastic changes would be needed to keep the empire from collapsing. The Pope made some leeway in building alliances with them. Although they were skeptical of a true heir, they knew the current king would waste his father's legacy and ruin the kingdom. A huge problem was the ballooning debt the king was causing. As he blazed through his father's deep coffers, he had to take huge loans just to pay for the basic functioning of the kingdom. When peasants organized and revolted, he quickly took a loan and higher mercenaries to destroy any opposition. When that was backfiring horribly, he began to deplete grain storages to appease the mobs.
The problems were snowballing as the cost of security also rose. The Knights Templars began receiving many more requests from the kingdom to maintain security and order. Often, the promised fee was shorted or completely forgotten. The Pope instructed the Knights to continue their services to help the kingdom, realizing that in doing so, the Knights quickly became even more popular with the general population. The Pope began digging into the church's shallow coffers to pay their bill and recruit and train new recruits. He knew that even if the king didn't pay monetarily, the knights' service would be suitable for supporting the church.
Unlike the Pope, the king was nearsighted and cut so much funding from future expenditures. It was expensive to train and maintain a military. Often, entire units simply fled or joined the warlords coming from the southeast. The king had deferred the payments for training new recruits, and very quickly, the military began operating at a massive deficit to the kingdom.
The Pope saw that his patience was paying off and continued to work with noble houses to bring them to his side. And, with much reluctance, he gave John his holy blessing to join the Knights Templar on specific missions to help secure roads and towns. He placed at least three paladins in his care every time and ensured they understood that John's safety was the top priority.
John began to fear that the Paladins might resent him. But the Paladins and the Knights Templar were wise. They knew that if they took care of John and allowed him to take a majority of the credit publicly for bravely defending against raiders, his name would travel and grow with the general population. And if John felt like one of them, when he was to ascend, it would be almost as if one of their own would be seated on the highest throne.
Meanwhile, John spent many nights with Sharon and Viola. Before he would leave for a mission, they would fawn all over, worshiping every inch of him. Sometimes together, sometimes one after the other. Also, within a few weeks of that first night together, Sharon noticed that the symptoms Viola would have would beat her by a few weeks. Very early, she got the mystic/oracle in the Vatican to affirm that they were both with child. And confirmed that Sharon was a few weeks ahead of her younger paramour.
Although John thought there was no way Sharon and Viola could get more beautiful, they did. Their growing motherhood made their face and bodies glow with maternal energy. Their hips widened. Their breast were becoming even more full. Their nipples darken and increase in sensitivity. John was truly in heaven when he was ravishing their bodies. Their asses were growing, and he would take turns worshiping them ceaselessly. He would allow his tongue to explore every inch of their core while his hands explored the growing curves.
He had no idea that he had a pregnancy kink, but he loved it when they called him "Daddy." Even though he would still call Sharon mom, she would scream "Daddy harder" as he bent her over and spanked her.
The first night after it was confirmed entirely that both Sharon and Viola were pregnant, they let him know as he made love to them. Since they first started sleeping with him, they had quickly built an organic schedule of ensuring that at least twice a day, his balls were completely drained of cum by one or both of them. They knew right away that the symptoms Viola was showing were a sure sign of being with child. Before they shared the news with him, they came on strong to him.
John was surprised but enjoyed it when both women were absolutely cock hungry and thirsty for his semen. They allowed him to watch as Viola hungrily pleasured Sharon.
"Daddy, please give this dirty little pussy the load it desperately needs," Viola said with a mouthful of pussy. With her hands, she held Sharon down and ate her from above. She shoved Sharon's legs toward her head. She led John closer and began to suck his hard cock. It was big for her mouth, but she bravely, with lessons from Sharon, had become an exuberant excellent dick sucker.
Sharon moaned as she watched Viola hungrily eat John's dick. She kept her legs pulled up and pushed her hips up to allow her wet pussy to point up to the ceiling. It began to contract in anticipation. "Come, son, give your mommy her cum. I want you to give me a son."
