The Apothecary.

It didn't take long for Yvette to get ready as she just needed her shoes and socks on. It was a bit of a turn on knowing that under her dress she was completely naked, and some of you would be leaking out of her. Come to think of it, you hadn't seen underwear in any fashion at the store. Maybe it just didn't exist here you wondered. Regardless you had stuff to do today so you took Yvette's hand and headed out to the common room. Only a few people were around this time of day you noticed, but the innkeeper was once again behind the bar cleaning mugs with a cloth. As you approached you noticed him looking at you holding your ****'s hand.

"Sounded like you got some really good sleep last night" he said as you approached. You paused your walk for a split second as you realized maybe those walls weren't as thick as you needed them to be. You looked at Yvette and her face was bright red as she stared a hole at the ground.

"Uh yah, I'm really well...rested" you replied with a smirk. He just chuckled as he continued to clean the mug in his hand.

"Would we be able to get the room again tonight and another set of meals" you asked tossing a silver coin on the counter.

"Yes sir" he answered with a smile. "Just keep the key with you" he added. You nodded and gave him a wave goodbye as Yvette walked out into the town. Yvette let out a sigh of relief as soon as the door shut behind you.

"Oh my Gods I was so loud last night...I didn't even think about it" she said with a little panic in her voice.

"Don't worry about it too much" you try to comfort her "I guarantee that isn't the first time something like that has happened. Or the loudest" you add.

"Besides, it was incredibly sexy hearing your voice" you grabbed her hand and gave it a squeeze. You could tell she felt a little better after hearing you encourage her a little.

"Let's go see how Copper is doing" you tell her trying to lighten the mood a bit and you walk with her to the stables. Copper is standing in a stall with his head poking out of the door to his stall, and he barks and chirps when he sees you. The stable master tells you he'll go get Copper for you, but before he can turn around to head that way Copper comes running up to you and nuzzles into your chest.

"Raptors" the stable master states plainly shaking his head as if not surprised.

Copper takes notice of Yvette and brings his head over to her to give her some quick sniffs. Seemingly content with her smell he nuzzles his head against her chest almost causing her breasts to pop out, and gives her an almost purr like sound.

"Hello Copper" Yvette says laughing, both fixing herself and giving him pets on the head. Satisfied for now Copper gets in step behind you as you start your walk to your next destination. Come to think of it, you had no idea where your next destination was. Stopping a kid in the street you ask where the apothecary is and after some brief directions you toss the kid a few copper, and start heading the correct way. You probably could have eventually found it though as its sign was a big wooden flower with a mortar and pestle under it. You walked in with Yvette, Copper waiting by the door, and looked around the place. It was full of crates and baskets with potions of various sorts within them. There were red, blue, yellow, green, and all sorts of other colors and bottle shapes around, but many were not labeled. Intuitively you knew what the non-labeled ones were, which was rather jarring to think about, but you realized the knowledge your character had in this world was surfacing. The labeled ones fortunately had a brief description of effects.

You had forgotten to bring a pack with you, so you located the shop keep and asked her if they had something you could keep them in. The shop keep was a beautiful, and large breasted, mature woman.

"Absolutely, let me see what I can find for you to fit things into" she says with a smirk and a wink. You're a bit stunned at her flirting as it has been a long time since anyone has flirted so obviously with you. Before you can gather your wits she steps into the back and comes back with a few bags and lays them on the counter. For 20 copper you get two of the bags that can hold fifty potions each. They functioned just like the backpacks, with the exception being they only hold potions, and soon you had one bag full of thirty health potions and twenty magic potions. In the other bag you bought twelve Moon Tea potions, which was the contraceptive Yvette mentioned. You only needed that many of them as the effect lasted a full month, hence the name, but it could be canceled by various other potions if you wanted. You and Yvette decided not to bother with that part of it yet, and Yvette drank one in the store. In the other bag you did buy a couple potions called Minotaur's Might. Contrary to its name it had nothing to do with affecting your strength as might be expected. This particular potion had an interesting effect on the amount of cum a man produced during climax. Effects varied from user to user, but you were looking forward to finding out just how much it would affect you, seeing as Yvette was the one wanting you to buy them she must have wanted to find out too.

Looking down the row you found the Minotaur Might potions in you noticed the entire length of it was baskets of various potions dealing with sex. The next potion that grabbed your attention was Lover's Touch. It was almost a lube like substance that was supposed to enhance the sensitivity of what it was applied to. You put a couple in the bag. There was also just straight up Massage Oil, which was just an oil, however you grabbed a bottle as you could have some fun with massaging Yvette you knew. Next you grabbed several Rigid potions. Appropriately named it was supposed to keep a man's cock hard no matter what for several hours.

Surprisingly, or maybe not that surprising, it was in a small blue vials. The last thing to catch Yvette's eyes was a potion called All In. It removed a person's gag reflex. You weren't sure if it numbed them or just affected that part of the brain, but you were happy she was so excited to find it. Throwing a few of those in the bag you looked back up the aisle towards the counter and noticed the shop keep staring at you and Yvette. She was bent over at the waist leaning over the counter resting on her elbows. Her low cut dress showed a very large amount of cleavage from her massive breasts. She glanced down at her chest and shook her breasts back and forth slightly, and then gave you a smirk showing she knew exactly where you were looking.

"Those look amazing don't they" Yvette said standing beside you.

"Oh, uh...what do" you try to deflect.

"Oh come on John, you can't tell me you weren't looking at her tits. I wouldn't mind finding out how they feel myself" she states plainly. Surprised at her attitude you had to find out a bit more.

"You'd want to spend some time with her" you asked.

"Well...with you and her, yah" she replied.

"I didn't think..." you start.

"That I'd be open to bringing in other people for some fun" she finished your question.

"Well yah" you said kind of stunned.

"It's kind of a result of how my people are" she explains. You raise your eyebrow waiting for her to explain.

"In such a harsh environment everyone is your mom or dad where I'm from. Both men and women find sexual partners with anyone if the mood strikes, so really none of us know who our actual father is, and we only know who our mom is because they gave birth to us. As such everyone has a stake in raising the children as their own, as it might possibly be their own or possibly a close relative. It creates a solid community of people who want to raise everyone up rather than just themselves or their close family" she explains.

"So what about love" you ask "how can you love someone who..." you search for the right words.

"Seeks out sex from others" she finishes for you again.

"Well yah" you reply. "Well we do have bonded relationships, and they usually live together. If you really love someone why would you **** them to remain only with you if they enjoy something sexual with someone else" she reasons.

"Does jealously not exist for you" you ask.

"Not usually. If it is expected for someone you love to seek sex with others then it isn't hidden from your partner really. They know you love them, and love is much deeper than just sex". You try to wrap your head around all the what ifs this presents, but the big question was "What if you and I were a bonded pair, but I found another person I loved as well" you ask.

"That exists in our village already" she states. "You all join in a bonded relationship" she finishes.

"How does that look" you continue asking. "For instance say a bond is between two men and a woman. For the woman she may have a sexual bond with both men, but the men may not have such a bond between them. In that case their bond would be more deep friendship or even a brotherhood really, and they would support each other to the best of their ability. Which would include encouraging the sexual relationship they both have with the woman. If you bonded with that woman over there for instance, I would not be jealous of any sexual relationship you form with her, and I would likely pursue my own sexual relationship with her as well...a heads up" she says with a smirk.

"Wow" you blankly state. "So when we go pay and she makes a pass at me you're ok with that" you ask.

"Yah, and judging by how she's looking at me, she's going to make a pass on both of us" Yvette states.

"Good to know" you state.

"Look, if we do become bonded together like I want...I mean...I'm not saying we are yet...just that I...I'm just saying..." Yvette stumbles over her words.

"It's ok Yvette I understand that something is developing between us and I hope we become...bonded...as well". You grab her shoulders and bring her into a hug she returns gratefully. "This was a good conversation and I've learned a lot about what our relationship is and could be" you state.

"Yah" Yvette says hugging you with a smile. You finally break apart reluctantly and finish getting some more practical potions. Like some anti-poison potions, some lotions, and even some shampoos luckily. You approach the shop keep with your bags and place them on the counter in front of her. She remains leaning against the counter with her cleavage on full display.

"Hello handsome, did you find...everything...you were...looking...for" she asks emphasizing her words by squishing her tits together with her arms.

"Most everything" you reply.

"Maybe I can help you find the rest later" she says suggestively. "For now let's total up your potions". She reaches her fingers in between her cleavage and pulls out what looks like a pencil. She stops it half way out and makes a show of struggling to pull it the rest of the way out.

"I'm always getting things stuck in there" she purrs. Yvette giggles a little behind you. The shop keep smirks at her reaction.

"let's see here" she says totaling up the potions making exaggerated motions with the pencil to shake her tits around. You can't help but stare at her display, and you notice her nipples get hard under your attention. You look back to her face and she is starting back at you with a smirk.

"Oops" she flicks the pencil behind her "I'm so clumsy sometimes". She turns around and bends at her hips sticking her ass straight at you. "Now where did that devil go" she says shaking her butt back and forth slowly. Her dress barely covers everything, just teasing you enough by threatening to ride up and reveal her ass and pussy. Her butt is large, but well shaped, and you can't look away.

"There it is" she looks back at you holding the pencil up as she remains bent over breaking your stare. She straightens back up and steps back to the counter.

"That comes to 425 copper" she says looking up at you with a smile. You retrieve 5 silver coins and hand them to her.

"Keep the change" you tell her.

"Oh, a generous man" she says with a smile "I wonder what else you are generous with" she purrs. Yvette let's out a snort and laugh behind you, turning around quickly to calm herself. The shop keep seems content that she made Yvette laugh with her banter as she looks past you towards Yvette. "I see you have quite the selection of potions here, some of my favorite actually. I'd love for you two to come by tonight after I finish work, so I can show you my personal stock. I promise I have some beautiful things to show you both" she states a little huskily looking between you and Yvette. You look her up and down for the first time taking her all in. She has dark brown hair that is done up in a bun on the back of her head. Her face is beautiful and doesn't show any wrinkles, even though she appears to be at least in her 40s. She wears glasses over her blue eyes, and has freckles dotting her nose and cheeks. Her lips are full, but not bee stung full like you'd see back in your world. Continuing down you couldn't even guess at her breast size, but they were definitely larger than Ds, and although you suspected they had a bit of sag to them they still looked amazing. Her body was thick, but you wouldn't call her fat or even chubby. She would definitely what you'd call a MILF in your world, and has a bit of a librarian thing going on.

"I wouldn't mind seeing what you have to show us Mrs..." you linger at the end.

"Miss" she replies immediately. "Miss Annabel" she holds out her hand. You take her hand in yours and kiss the back of her hand. She tenses at the kiss, and you wonder if that custom isn't really something that happens here. She's breathing a bit heavier now as you release her hand.

"I look forward to seeing you both" she says looking over at Yvette. "I can't wait to show you what I have to offer" she adds. With that you grab your two bags and head towards the door telling her goodbye for now. Yvette lingers behind a little staring at Annabel, but quickly gains her bearings and gets into step behind you. The door shuts and immediately Yvette lets out a little squeal and bounces up and down slightly.

"I'm glad you are excited, are you attracted to women" you ask.

"Not women in general, but rather her specifically" Yvette replies with a big smile.

"Why" you dig a little deeper.

"I've never been with a woman, and I've always been curious, and she seems perfect. She looks beautiful, her tits are huge, she seems experienced, and I'm betting she really does have some fun potions for us to try" she lists out on her fingers.

"Well let's hit the blacksmith" you suggest "where ever that is" you chuckle. You hold up a finger for Yvette to wait a second, and open the door to the apothecary to ask for directions. You entered in a bit quickly and notice Annabel is quickly moving back to the counter as she smooths her dress. She looks flushed and is breathing pretty heavy. You have a guess at what she was doing.

"I hope I didn't interrupt something important" you say giving her a smile.

"N-no...I was just...thinking about what I wanted to show you tonight" she counters and gives you a bit of a smile back.

"Well, I just wanted to see if there was a blacksmith in town and where they'd be located at" you ask diffusing the tension a bit.

"Oh, uh, if you head out the door and turn left there will be a bit of a crossroad down the street. Just turn left there and it'll take you right to it" she answers.

"Thank you Annabel" you reply "I will let you get back to whatever you were...fiddling with...so you can prepare yourself for tonight" you say smirking.

"Mmmm...yes, I'll get right back to it" she replies flashing you a pretty smile.

You chuckle and head back out to the street. You explain the directions she gave as well as what you think you caught her doing to Yvette's delight, and you head for the blacksmith.
