His research is more dangerous than they realized

"My research is on the nature of the monsters in these caves," Tarquin explained. "They are driven to acts of carnal pleasure, and the toads that rule here are the greatest examples of this. But... it is not just the toads. Any creature here who has been here long enough will feel a primal need to mate, to rut. Especially males." He looked over the three weary women drenched in his sperm. "Even myself."

Myria giggled, intoxicated by sex. "I think that's just wonderful!"

Dew looked at Cecilia. "What do you think, Cecilia," she asked.

"I think..." Cecilia pondered her answer while licking cum off of her fingertips. "I think picked a great day to start fucking!"

"Fuck yeah!" Myria said. "Tarquin, we want to fuck more."

"Maybe in the morning," Dew said, yawning.

"Definitely in the morning," said Cecilia, her eyes closing as she began to fall asleep.

"You don't understand," Tarquin said, weariness plain to hear in his voice. "The toads have tapped into the power in these caves, and every act of sex makes them more powerful. I... I fear that our actions here have made my home unsafe. If they are more powerful than my defensive magic... they could attack at any time."

"Our paladin is asleep," Myria said. "So if they find us, we're fucked... again..."

Dew held the wizard's hand. "We can combine our powers to boost your defenses for tonight. We can rest safely, and then figure out what to do in the morning."

"I hope you are right," Tarquin said. He and Dew cast a spell together, and the room glowed with a protective light. And then everyone in it was asleep.
