Chapter 829 Honey Trap

Chapter 829 Honey Trap

Upon receiving the news of Menes's victory and having read and confirmed it a few times, Alexander was naturally ecstatic but remarked to Cambyses and Lady Felicia, 

"Keep it a secret for now. Let us wait for the rider to come and let us know the details. Then we can announce it."

Alexander was a patient man and did not want to speak up without knowing the full contents.

He also wanted to see which opportunistic nobles had the intelligence network and mindset to flip before the time was up, for as soon as he announced the results, he was sure if not all, at least ninety percent of the nobles would flip on the spot.

Alexander reasoned that although the great news of such a huge victory could not be hidden, given the technology of the time and that they were in Thesalie, not their usual fiefdom, only the best and richest nobles would be able to confirm the result before Menes's rider arrived.

And then these nobles would have a choice. 

Act on it and surrender to Alexander in exchange for the benefits he had promised for those proactive ones.

Or don't, and still hope for a miracle.

Thus in a subtle way, this was Alexander's last test to see which nobles held true power in Tibias and were eager to serve him, to try and separate the wheat from the chaff.

Of course, the two women did not understand these deep considerations and simply nodded because Alexander said so.

And with that said, Lady Felicia was allowed to excuse herself from the room, while Cambyses was tricked into taking her place by a disguised invitation from Alexander, who alleged he wanted to discuss what Amenheraft could have to talk with him.

But then of course Alexander got up to his naughty antics, happily teasing his main wife, by the end of which her lower half of the gown was literally soaking wet, courtesy of the girl being a squirter.

It was even to the point that Cambyses had to fake spilling some wine onto her dress just to escape that extreme embarrassment when she attempted to get up.

But that got a cheeky laugh from her daughter Alexandria, as she pointed her infant finger and called her mother names such as clumsy.

While the middle aged nannies pretended very hard to appear convinced that Cambyses had indeed spilled her wine and there was not another distinct smell wafting out of her, as the lady in question kept subtly glaring hatefully at her husband, being sure this was her punishment for those remarks she had made towards Lady Felicia.

For dinner, in joy of learning of Menes's victory, Alexander asked the chefs for a rich feast that he shared with his four women.

Following which, in a rare show of instance, he took all four of them to his bedroom, enjoying them to his heart's content for hours, until he was fully sated.

And that was where Alexander currently was, reclining against the bedstand fully bare.

He had Opehenia and Gelene resting their tired heads on his broad shoulders, their abundant chest pressing against his sturdy arms, making him feel heavenly, while his own hands were on their fluffy butts, kneading and squeezing them and them purr.

Cambyses was lying on his muscled abs, eyes drooping with exhaustion after the intense act, while the petite girl Mean actually was still not done, for she had her mouth stuffed with his exhausted brother in her mouth, cleaning it and the two largely hanging jewels thoroughly, giving them a good tongue bath.

It was in this afterglow of a state that suddenly Alexander remembered his predicament and brought up Lady Felicia's matter to the four, who gave their own responses.

Mean, the least interested in politics simply did not care and continued her ministrations, like a Cheshire kitten still wanting her milk. 

Ophenia, too did not respond, but more so because she was particularly exhausted.

Being the most beautiful of the four, Alexander had favored her in this session a bit too much, making her lower half be sore, while the other girls being jealous bullied her hard by playing with her piercings, with each getting to play with their own one.

Cambyses had been especially rough, playing with her clit piercing a bit too much and making Ophenia nearly faint from pain and pleasure. 

So by now, the tired woman had already drifted off to a deep slumber.

But the other two were very enthusiastic at the mention, and as Alexander revealed much of findings, Cambyses, who just a moment ago appeared to be on the verge of sleep, now almost had shining lamps for eyes.

"I knew it! I told you she could not be trusted. But did listen? No.. that….."

The rant and rebuke were quite long as given the chance, this matriarch of the house did not let her husband off the hook.

While Alexander, knowing this would happen, put on a straight face and took it, internally saying to himself bitterly, 'This is why I did not want you to know.'

And it was only after Cambyses had used up all her ammo and chimed down that the bare, ebony beauty Gelene got her chance, and she actually gave useful input.

Snuggling herself even closer, she cooed, "Master, this is very easy. Just trick that man into sleeping with a whores."

"She can dress up in something very similar to that negligee and based on what that man says seeing it, all will be clear."

Alexander was stunned by the simplicity of the solution and turning to look at Gelene with an almost incredulous face, he blurted, "You can do that?" 

 "Hehehe, leave it to me, master." And pleased at the reaction, the buxom lady bared all her pearly whites, reassuring, "I have a few similar dresses in stock. And I also know a girl who is around the same figure as that Lady Felicia. With a bit of makeup and a wig, she will look just like her."

The way Gelene knew such a working girl was of course because Ophenia had asked for her help in managing that red district establishment, as its rapid growth in popularity necessitated the extra hand. 

"Hahaha, great! *Pah*, great!" And this naturally pleased Alexander, as he slapped that voluminous, chocolate butt in joy, eliciting a lustful moan from the other party, who then coyly asked, 

"Then… about my reward …master." 

Naturally, Gelene wanted to be remunerated for her idea.

And Alexander was never stingy with his giving, promising, "If your girl can get me the information I need, you can ask for anything within reason. Be it land, gold, jewelry, slaves."

 "Great!" And the curvy lady did not stand on ceremony, accepting the offer with an elated cry and pronouncing, "Then master my fief needs some good draft animals. About one hundred. And I would also like to sleep with you every day for a week."

Her first demand went mostly unchallenged as Alexander found the price within his means, but the second one got a far more venomous snap from Cambyses, who cried in anger, 

"What! You cow!"

The girls had strictly divided the seven day week with their own personal schedule for sleeping with Alexander and this proposal was clearly stepping on that.

"Hahaha, well aren't you being greedy," Knowing that Gelene was likely asking for the maximum prices here, Alexander chuckled in amusement, before bringing his other hand that was until now on Ophenia's smooth butt to pull on the ebony lady's recently pierced nipple ring, as a kind of light punishment and getting a soul stirring moan for his efforts.

Gelene had seen the other three's changes to their nipples due to their pregnancies, and then feeling she was getting left behind, decided to do this with Alexander's permission.

Towards Gelene's asking price, Alexander thought for a second, and then wanting to treat the woman, nodded with a smile, "Okay. I will give you everything you want." though there was a caveat, "But the information better be worth it."

This naturally got a cheer from Gelene followed by a promise of quality, while Cambyses sulked, primarily angry with herself that she was unable to think of the solution.

The preparation of this honey trap naturally took some, as that girl in question had to be transported from Zanzan to Theaslie, along with Gelene's dress that was in her shop.

And so Alexander waited, he sensed the air around the present nobles' subtle change.

There were far less gregarious meetings and far more whisperings and hostile looks at each other.

It seemed the results of the battle had already leaked and there were factions forming with the group.

Those who wanted to surrender.

Those who wanted to officially wait for word from Perseus.

And those who oscillated between pretending to surrender and bide their time or rebelling right now regardless of the consequences.

And over the following week, as Alexander had suspected many nobles surreptitiously came to him proclaiming their fealty in exchange for the reward, though of course, the quality of the various benefits they were given was a lot watered down. 

And then around a week later, Menes's messenger at last arrived, with a very long letter that caused some headaches for Alexander.

Let us say no to piracy! Don't take part in a crime! Don't patronize thieves!
