sobs boiling off his lips. He held
Nori by her hips, grasping tightly and rocking with her as she rode him; he
struggled not to fall from Lin Yao s assault on the bundles of flaring nerves
under his tongue.
He came with a ragged yell, humping into Nori in short, spasmodic jerks. She
laughed breathlessly between soft cries, not at her own peak but not too far
away. Lin Yao surged up,

stroking his prick hard against the firm pucker he d just licked and pushing
his way practically to Nori s quim, where Ko s prick was still buried. He
fingered around the place where Ko and Nori were joined, his hissed
exclamation adding fuel to the fire in Ko s release, then stroked Nori above
Ko so that he could feel him bringing her off. Sticky wetness painted Ko s ass
seconds later, Lin Yao relentlessly thrusting through the bursts of cum that
escaped him.
Lin Yao sagged over Ko, moving to squeeze Nori s buttocks. Neither of you are
going anywhere, he mumbled. Get used to it.
Ko closed his eyes tightly and turned away from Nori s questing lips which
demanded kisses. No. He wasn t escaping, was he?
At least not until the moment the Tribunal came to take him away as an

I didn t know what would happen next, though I should have.
Nori and Lin Yao and I lost ourselves among the ruins of the old orchard
instead, both of them relentless in their teasing and their never-ending
caresses. I decided to temporarily put out of my head the knowledge of what I
had to do and how soon I needed to run. I
had stayed too long, I had gotten too close, and I could smell the danger on
the north wind.
Did I take the chance to escape while I could, when Nori and
Lin Yao dozed off under the heat of the midday sun, tangled in one another s
arms with me in the middle? No. I lay there like a fool instead, petting their
hair with the absence of reason that defines the besotted.
I let myself pretend, for a little while longer, that the oncoming storm was
nothing more than a springtime shower. Don t hate me for this. Who could look
at Nori s ripe beauty and not want to live and die in her arms? Who could turn

from Lin Yao without being forever changed?
I couldn t bear to face it, not just then, and so I turned my thoughts away,
toward peace. I drifted off to sleep with the feeling that I had somehow come
home.
And because of this, we could not stop the war that began while we slept.

Helpmeet 97
Lin Yao!
Lin Yao!
Where are you?
He jerked awake, propping his weight on his elbows. Not again, he grumbled,
rebalancing so he could rub at one dry, itchy eye. Nori, Ko. Wake up. We ve
got company.
Wha ? Ko slurred. Lin Yao snuck a peek at him and was hard put to resist a
smug smirk. He d done that to Ko, he and Nori together, fucking the fight out
of their third until he became as he was now, docile, eager, and beautiful in
the way of a Luna moth, all pale luminescence even when basking in the falling
afternoon sun.
Lin Yao chided himself for such a foolish flight of fancy. If he was going to
appreciate
Ko s body, then he d rather gloat over the bite marks and finger-shaped
bruises he d left there, remembering each taste of Ko and the corresponding
noises he d drawn from the pale man.
His nudge to Ko s ribs was gentler than it might have been. Up and at em,
dozy.
Someone s coming.
Ko sighed, sounding extremely put upon. Lin Yao chuckled. You too, Nori.
Taskmaster, she grouched. For all her protests, she kissed his shoulder as
she sat up and stretched, yawning.
Who d have eve thought?
he pondered, amused, tipping his head back to let the sunlight play over his
cheeks.
Helpmeets were a good idea, after all
.

Lin Yao scratched his chin, in such a good mood that he idly wondered how he
could make up for the argument with Tatsuo without trespassing on the
commander s unspoken rules of etiquette and without appearing to be a soppy
maiden himself. He had just turned to
Nori to ask her opinion when their visitor repeated his shouts.
He sat up immediately, freeing his limbs of Nori and Ko. There was a note of
terrified desperation and a lift of rage in the caller s cry that drew him up
in the way of a hunting hound when he heard the trumpets blaring.
What is it? Ko tried to follow him.
Shh! Lin Yao rose carefully into a crouch, heart pounding in his ears. He
couldn t entirely tell why he was reacting so strongly, but every nerve ending
in his body felt raw, lightning struck, ferociously eager for action. Get up,
both of you. Get behind me.
Lin Yao -- Nori started.
Ko shushed her. Do as he says, my lady.
The summoner came racing through the orchard with arms windmilling, came
finally close enough for recognition.
Isao! Lin Yao could have throttled the young man for being such a persistent
annoyance. What do you think you re doing?
The Helpmeet stopped by tumbling to his knees. I found you, he rasped. I
found you.

You did. What s this all about? Lin Yao repeated, trying to be patient. Not
a drop of
Isao s panic had run off when he d found them. Something was wrong. Something
--
Tatsuo. He lurched forward, gripping Isao far too fiercely by the arms and
dragging him up face-to-face. What s happened to Tatsuo?
Isao s face crumpled. The way station. Gyen. There s fighting.
What happened to him? Lin Yao roared. Tell me specifically what s happened
