The rest of our trip was less eventful. I finally saw some males and they were indeed tiny little fellows. We left the main hall and traveled down a less busy but still large and busy corridor until the disk stopped at a closed door. Bekala stepped down and walked to the door. It opened, sliding to the side and we followed her inside. It was HUGE!!!!

The main entry was large and all white marble opening out into an even larger area where there was a fountain and many soft pillows in varying sized pits. Through a door across from the entry was the kitchen if you want to call it that. There was a large table and a counter with glass front doors on it. The bedrooms of which there were about a dozen were all huge and the “bed” was a large nest in a sunken area on the floor filled with huge pillows and all manner of covers made from various materials. The only rooms that were really familiar were the bathrooms. They were equipped like the others with three position toilets and the male enema area. The showers were huge with endless hot water and each bath also had a huge tub that was always filled with bubbling warm waters and big enough for five or six.

“My God Bekala this place must cost a fortune, we don’t need something this elaborate!” I told her.

She looked confused for a moment and then suddenly understood. “No-el, here, space is without cost. If we wish more or a different space we simply tell the housing proctor what we want and she sends the machines to do it. You must understand, we have limitless free power. The stone that is cut out to make new rooms is more valuable than the rooms that are made. It is used to decorate or enhance our other areas. The cost to us as a people for this space is about the same as the cost to make and power one room. With infinite free power many things are possible that sound strange I’m sure. The tubs are filled and drained constantly rather than filling them as needed because it is easier to do so than put in valves. The water in the fountain acts as the climate control and the temperatures of those waters bring warmth as needed or absorb it and take it away. Our food is made from basic elements on demand because it is easier than storing foods that perish. I will help you learn how to request meals as soon as we imprint our language on you and it will give you what you wish for.”

“So no one has to work here? Your power, housing and food are all free and freely provided?”

“Oh not No-el, we all work… all the women work. The males are not required to do so; they are to precious to allow them to do anything even slightly hazardous or strenuous. We just don’t work to provide the things you mentioned. You may also add clothing, medical treatment, education and entertainment to the things freely provided.”

“What is left to work for Bekala?”

“Why the important things No-el. The only thinks truly worth working for… honor and status and procreation. You must understand, I have been blessed far beyond even my wildest fantasies. Most women have to work for at least two centuries to gain sufficient status to earn entry into a family with access to a truly fertile male. Even then the status of the woman determines how often she will have access to him for procreational interludes. It may take her another hundred years to conceive even after she is accepted into a family.”

Haley asked, “If you have so much trouble getting pregnant it would seem to me that it would be more efficient to do artificial insemination or do the test tube fertilization and implant the embryo.”

Bekala nodded sadly. “We have tried that and the success rate is even lower than the normal biology. The males are not the only ones with problems. Your arriving here as and when you have is almost like a sign from the predecessor. We have been debating for some time the possibility of bringing in outsiders to assist us. If you can impregnate me we will become one of the highest status families in Lantis.” She looked at Haley and Charlie, your children will be precious to us and may return to us the vigor of our earlier years.”

“What if I don’t want to be nothing but a prized stud!” I asked.

Bekala smiled, “You are male. Do you not like women? I think you seemed very happy to offer your services to Tantrah. You will be treated like a god if you can help us. You will father a new race.”

Haley laughed, “Or we can whip your butt and make you do it if you don’t wish to be cooperative. That is a possibility that might have merit. I’m sorry Noel but you have a great ass and I liked spanking it a lot!”

Charlie pulled me close. “Don’t pay any attention to her Noel. I know that you will be a good boy. I had planned on marrying you and then sharing you with Haley. I am good about sharing. I didn’t figure to share you this much but what the hell I will screen your ladies and you will still be mine.”

“You planned on marrying me? When were you going to let me in on that decision?” I asked more amused than offended.

She kissed me, “Silly man, the man never makes the decision. The woman decides and then lets the guy think that it was his idea. That is the way it has always been. By the time we returned home I would have had you half trained and domesticated. If you will admit it, you know that it is true. I already had you hooked and reeled in!”

I rolled my eyes, “Ok, what ever.” I knew when to give up.

Bekala came to Charlie and said simply, “You are the first Wife and have the final say about him. You will be a very powerful woman. I offer my soul to you.” She knelt before Charlie and kissed her feet.

“Hey!! What is this! Get up Bekala!” Charlie blurted. “What do you mean? What is this shit!!”

Bekala stayed on her knees, “I am his spaklo. Once he impregnates me, it he can, my bond will be fulfilled and I will be as nothing to him or you. I wish to be instead your sheeka, junior wife bonded to YOU, and stay with you even if he can not impregnate me or if he does. I assume Hay-lee is your sheeka as well?”

This was making my head hurt and I asked if I could take a nap. They took me to a bedroom, undressed me and tucked me in. Later Charlie explained it to me. It goes something like this…

Mashia … Senior Wife/owner of the male…

Matira … Co-wife to senior and part owner of the male, must own at least 10% to be matira other wise a female is either sheeka, sheena or spaklo …

Sheeka … Junior Wife bonded to the senior wife for life…

Sheena … junior wife bonded to the senior wife for a specified period…

Spaklo … concubine/keeper/lover sort of a second class wife bonded only to the male until she is pregnant…

Nelta… woman servant that serves in exchange for occasional access to the male…

Manina … Woman that pays via some favor or service to make love to the male once…

Manisha …Woman that pays via some favor or service for limited access for hopeful pregnancy…

Kitrik … male of unproven fertility…

Kracit … infertile male or male of limited fertility…

Kodo …Fertile male …

Kamon… older or impotent male …

It seems that much of their society is built around the control and access of fertile males. They were all carefully cared for though because even the infertile ones were a status symbol. The approximate ratio of males to females was 7 to 1 but the ratio of fertile male to female is about 20 to 1. In most ways, males and the access to them was the true currency of the Lantian civilization.

I snuggled down in my nest and found it to be very comfortable. I slept comfortably and just as I drifted off to sleep I wondered what time it was. Time here seemed to have little meaning.

I woke up suddenly and found myself surrounded by naked female flesh. Charlie was kissing me and when she saw that I was awake she smiled. “We have things worked out. Bekala is going to be your wife and 10% partner in the family business. That is called a matira and makes her full family. In order to seal the deal you need to do your thing with her.” Be nice to her Noel, she is as excited as a new bride and this is her honeymoon. She is going to be our agent until Haley and I get up to speed on things here. Bekala says that she will take us to a school tomorrow. I think it is a school. She called it a learning center.”

I looked over at Bekala and she looked pretty damn great. I crawled over to her and sort of slithered up between her legs and with my mouth and hands I went to work on her. She was like a firecracker and began popping almost at once. Haley was on one side of her and Charlie was on the other. Their hands were all over her and she began to beg me to do it. “Please grant me your gift No-el!! I need it and want it like nothing before in my existence! Give it to me now and you may have my bottom as your gift later as you requested!”

I didn’t know about that but I was pass willing to jump her lovely bones. I eased back and in a flash she rolled over got on her knees and then dropped her chest down on a pillow. I took that as a written invitation to do her doggie style and eased into position. She whimpered a little bit as I slowly eased it into her. I’m sure she was still tender but once in place her whimper became cries of pleasure as we coupled slowly at first and then more and more violently until I buried it deep and gushed filling her up. She stayed just as she was even after I parted from her. I thought it still looked pretty inviting and slipped a finger into her. She sighed and so I played with her until it looked so good I rose back up and did it again! This time she just howled and thrashed as she took it hard and deep until I again came and further flooded her. My parting this time was a little like a buck bunny; I just fell back content and exhausted.

Bekala stayed with her ass up in the air for a long time. When she had calmed she explained that she wished to give my wigglers the very best shot at doing their deed. When she finally eased onto her tummy she crawled to me and I held her. I don’t know what time it was but Charlie and Haley snuggled us and we all went to sleep. The lights dimmed after a few minutes and I passed into a deep sleep.
