"Amerlee and I can - " The sound of the door made Shalsa pause.
"We can what?" Amerlee asked, sweeping into the room with Irila on her heels.
But the guardian paused when she saw us. "Is everything ok?"
I waved her down. "I'm just going to miss girl's lunch with Maela. I have an assignment."
"Which class is this?" Amerlee asked.
"Sexual Orientation," I explained. "It's the pain play in a trio one. I'm sure you both did it?"
"Oh, I loved that one," Shalsa said.
Amerlee flashed her a smile, "Me too. Where's..."
Shalsa pointed at the bedroom. "We'd wrecked the furniture and were catching our breath when the kids came by. He's currently dying of embarrassment."
"I got it," Irila said, heading to the bedroom.
So Amerlee came to sit on the couch across from us. "You can use the couch, Talin."
"I happen to know what was just done on that couch, and that's my in-laws, thank you very much," he teased. And yet, he still got up to sit beside her. "You two should also know that Nari kissed Faylie, Ela's a very bad punisher - "
"He's not," Shalsa said, cutting him off. "He's a very dangerous one."
"Well, he couldn't hurt me," Talin said. "But that's the assignment. He and Nari are paired with Tishlie from their primary years. Anver's ward."
"Shit," Shalsa breathed, her head whipping back around to me. "You're going to have to keep him in control."
"He'll be fine," I promised.
"No," Amerlee said. "Nari, he's being turned loose on someone who has hurt you. Eladehl is capable of convincing that woman to beg for her own death. Talin, make sure you get clear agreement on limits first. If Ela crosses them, stop it."
"I can do that," he promised.
Shalsa grabbed my hand. "And what are you doing during this? I know you don't usually lie with women. Are you ok?"
"It's a patron," I told her. "I don't have to like her."
"She's still a woman," Shalsa insisted, "and you have never shown an interest in that. I recommend that you use a strap-on so it's not you with her, but a device. Less personal for your first time."
"But I don't know how to use one!" I insisted. "And I don't have time to practice tonight. I have to go to cooking in a bit."
"Then handheld toys," Shalsa said. "I'll get some tonight. You'll be able to feel it, and you know what it's like when the men thrust into you. You will be expected to make her orgasm, Nari. You can either make her please you while he pleases her, or you can torment her with toys while Ela punishes her. I happen to think the latter is more your style."
"Probably," I admitted. "Shalsa, I'm going to fail this regardless. Tishlie's grading me. I grade Ela, and he grades her. She's going to fail me because she hates me - and I can't really fail again."
She just clutched my hand a little tighter. "Then blow her mind so she has to at least give you a poor. Oryll is determined to force you out of the class and down to Action. Hun, I don't know what to tell you except to do your best."
"Can he, though?" Talin asked. "She's not a Priestess of the Body. She's a Priestess of Temptation, and if she fails a few classes, she'll still be a Priestess of Temptation wearing all of Zeal's paths."
"I'll talk to Saval tonight," Amerlee said. "They can prohibit her from following Body as her main Path, though. If that happens, I don't know what it would do to the rest of you."
"So I pass," I said. "And I'll have to do it my own way. Playing by Oryll's rules isn't working. I can't make him happy, so why am I even trying?"
"Because you still need to learn what to expect from the Path of the Body," Talin said.
I just groaned. "Yeah, but I don't know how to work around this if I don't have all the information. There's never been anyone like me before. I'm doing it all, and I'm succeeding at everything but his classes. The sessions aren't monitored, so I can't even call in my mentor for help." I tossed up my hands in frustration. "So my goal forthisis simply to keep Ela in check. At least, that's how I see it."
