Herald of Steel

Alexander felt exhausted after his fifth release.

But the girls were nowhere near done.

It seemed that Alexander was just the appetizer and finished with him, they moved on to the main course, eagerly devouring the other men in waiting with bursting ball sacks.

Lady Inayah straddled a man, then lowered her front onto the chest of the man below, allowing another to pierce her pink asshole, while a third grabbed her hair and shoved his thick organ inside her mouth, making the city lord fully airtight.

The three men worked in tandem to please their lord, swinging their hips to strong slam against the defenseless woman. and soon each of Lady Inayah’s holes was filled with their thick, creamy goodness.

Mikaya too was not about to be outdone.

She bent over and parted her beautiful, meaty ass to reveal her flawless dirty hole and soon a man pierce her rear hole from behind.

He then raised her off the ground by her legs, as if helping her pee, and then started the pounding.

And soon, Mikaya emptied her bladder, letting Alexander have a front-row seat to the beautiful golden shower and proving herself as Lady Inayah’s student.

But she was not done with just this, as just after her release, another man with practiced movements pierced her pussy, causing Mikaya to scream, “Ohh yes! It’s not fucking if it’s not in both holes.”

Clearly, her sex with Alexander had not been satisfactory enough.

And then there was Nanazin.

Under lady Inayah’s silent directions, the two giants were instructed to restart Nanazin’s training.

Her limp body was pulled up from the ground, made to bend over, and then pieced in her asshole again by Got, who then resumed the thrusting.

Not to be outdone, Tot afterward took her helpless mouth and made Nanazin greet his thick member with her mouth, and thus venerable queen was back to being split-roasted.

And this time, the pounding seemed to be even more fierce.

As his thick member stretched Nanazin’s puckered hole to its limit, Got laid out large, heavy spanks on the already reddened ass cheeks, making her ass jiggle under each strike and threatening to snap her willow waist in half.

Tot too attacked in his own way.

He used his strong hips to rapidly move in and out of the warm tunnel while his fingers grabbed the heavenly fruits hanging off the twin mountains and started tugging and twisting them, almost like milking a cow.

“Mmmmm,” With her mouth full, Nanazin could only make nasal grunts, the only sign that she was loving this was the constant thin jets of streams she would let off from her tiny hole.

Alexander’s brother soon regained turgidity seeing this orgy, but the thought of having to do these acts alongside other men was a mental hurdle too hard for him to overcome, at least for now.

So he only silently watched as the three women drain the men like succubi, switching men between releases to ensure perpetual hard rods were stuffed inside them at all times, as the women assumed multiple positions at different times to facilitate the extraction of their desired fluid.

These positions included lining their asses up and having all nine holes filled and pounded, taking two rods in one hole, licking each other’s pussy and sucking out the fluid inside while getting railed in the ass at the same time, and at last, performing a synchronized water show for Alexander where the three women were put in the ‘child peeping’ position and then released their fluids at the same, creating three beautiful arcs and drenching the carpet below in a thick, ammonium smell.

‘Are they crazy or is this normal among the nobles?’ Alexander asked himself at his prurient display.

By the time it ended, all three reeked of semen and body fluids and had very content smiles on their faces as the ladies enjoyed themselves to high heaven.

White turgid fluid freely flowed out of their two holes, a clear sign that they had been overstuffed, while their chins were caked with the creamy stuff.

Their breasts and face naturally had their own white layer, while the sticky fluid even appeared in their hair, adding a kind of nasty, lewd sheen to it.

Lady Inayah and Mikaya were still standing, but it seemed Nanazin had enjoyed herself a bit too much, as, by the end, Nanazin directly fell asleep, spreading her exhausted body on the carpet and drifting off into slumber.

The other two ladies’ conditions were a bit better and they called the men to get a tub full of clean water as the ladies scrubbed themselves clean.

After the awkward, embarrassing but also very pleasurable encounter was over, Alexander awkwardly put on his clothes, avoiding eye contact with everybody while also thanking the heavens that these men were all Lady Inayah’s personal guards and not one of his own.

And then quickly excused himself.

“Pasha Alexander, if you want to become a part of Adhanian nobility, swapping wives is a must!”

This statement rang behind Alexander, uttered by Lady Inayah and it stuck with him.

Lady Inayah had given the advice out of the goodness of her heart but the reality of it very much hurt Alexander.

He knew the Romans used to swap wives as a political tool to advance their careers, so he wasn’t too surprised by the existence of such practices.

But that didn’t stop him from feeling disgusted.

Just the mere thought of Cambyses being held and touched by another man made his blood boil.

But then the cool, rational part of him took over and he thought realistically.

This practice might be considered immoral but even in Alexander’s modern times, it existed and was even prevalent in some parts of the world.

He specifically remembered how surprised he was when he read a headline claiming a quarter of Italian couples swapped partners.

So were they immoral?

Yes, in some people’s eyes they were.

But who decided what was moral and immoral?

In many countries, something as harmless as wearing a bikini is considered immoral. ．

In many Muslim-majority countries, drinking alcohol is seen as immoral and antisocial, while the complete opposite is true for some other countries like Japan, where the corporate culture is such that you are expected to drink and serve drinks with your colleagues and boss.

While in the Indian subcontinent, the evil culture of forcing a widow to jump into the burning pyre of her dead husband was followed for centuries until the British stopped it.

So who was right and who was wrong?

Where did one draw the line between harmless culture and harmful malpractices?

And who was the one that drew that line?

A short answer would be if everyone thought an act was okay, then it was okay and if not, then it was not.

As such, as all the nobles in Adhania were practicing this, if he too did not, he would become a pariah.

There was a reason why the saying went, ‘When in Rome do what the Romans do.’

And he was already a pariah by the pashas, but if he did this too, he would become virtually alone.

And no matter how resourceful and ingenious Alexander thought himself to be, he doubted he could take on the entire noble society on his own.

Maybe he could withstand against them militarily, but if they did not trade with him, if they restricted his access through their rivers and land, then his life would become very hard.

But compromising on his principles also seemed impossible.

The conflict between his modern soul and this ancient practice seemed too strong to overcome.

Hence he struggled to balance his love with his ambition and he was caught between a rock and a hard place.

On one hand was love, one of the major driving forces for doing all these.

On the other hand was ambition, the thing that would enable him to hold onto the things he loved.

So, does Alexander compromise on love and hold onto it for longer, or does he not risk losing it all?

Neither decision was easy.

And when he told Cambyses about this, she answered with a firm tone, “I will do whatever it needs to take your ambition to succeed.”

This did not help. as Alexander was rather hoping for Cambyses to vehemently deny this or even punch him to make the choice easier

And so with these troubling thoughts, with his modern soul clashing against the practices of the ancient world, with expectant desires toward his territory, and with many challenges laying ahead, Alexander left Adhan and finally started his journey toward Zanzan.

[Author’s comment – For anyone fearful of the dreaded NTR, rest assured it will not appear. This practice will be merely used as a tool for conflict generation and to generally make life harder for Alexander. At best some of Alexander’s lesser concubines like Gelene, who shares no love for Alexander will be used, though even that is very very unlikely.

But as always you can comment [here or in my discord] to let me know just how far you guys are comfortable with this – from pure vanilla to slight compromise to full-blown NTR.]

Author’s thoughts- Well this is the end of the first volume. Congratulations to all who made it this far.

Personally, I doubted whether I could reach this far. English is not my first language and being an engineering major, my entire prior experience of writing English consisted of just 3 essays, one in my O level almost ten years ago, one in an English course I took at Uni and the last was in my recent GRE.

All of them were average at best, ( I got 4 out of 6 on my GRE) and so I really doubted my penmanship.

And because I never wrote a story, I was also unsure how to begin a story.

And I think those problems show.

Other than the spelling mistakes (mostly pointed out by ByeSpirit- shout out to him/her) and some grammatical mistakes, I will be the first to admit my first 50 chapters have large flaws, as many commenters have pointed out, from the weird POV changes which I abandoned later, to many not liking my tactics to some not liking the harem tag.

Some were genuine, some trolls and some weren’t sure how they felt about my novel.

Taking that into account I did once think of rewriting those chapters but decided against it.

I thought all those who read my book should get the same experience and prior readers should not have to reread previous chapters.

I hate retconning.

But overall, the reception to my novice novel has been overwhelmingly positive.

And the support I received has been phenomenal, special shout-out goes to BossJohnny, Astemal_Meridous, Astemal, and Voltic_Ranger who regularly like, comment, and discuss things with me.

So, all in all, though a bit bittersweet, I’m satisfied with what I made.

And, I hope I can continue to receive you guys’ support in the future which will allow me to continue to give you guys your 5-minute daily dose of entertainment.

Cheers, FerriticMatrix.

End of Volume-1. [World map in the comments.]
