“But I need your seed,” Pip whined while hopping up and down on his hand. “Pretty please? Just a few drops will do.”

“I’m sorry,” Daniel said as he lowered his hand, the fairy then fluttering in place in front of him as he showed a remorseful smile. “I appreciate what you were offering to do for me. Maybe you do have the power to give me your magic, I won’t doubt that, but your method of giving it to me is something I just can’t do.”

Pip started crying as she gently lowered down and landed on the ground, the group watching as she held her hands to her face and sobbed with a tiny voice. Daniel sighed and looked around at his girls, all of them showing slight glimmers of sympathy for the crying fairy.

“Denied,” Falla dryly commented.

“Poor thing,” Luna said sadly.

“I didn’t want to make her cry,” Triska said looking away. “But she was asking for too much.”

“I’d rather keep teaching Daniel myself than resort to having her do that with him,” Alyssa agreed.

“Pip, please calm down,” Specca gently said. “I’m sure you can find another to give you what you wish.”

Squeak nodded and squeaked something however Pip continued to cry without even glancing to them. The group looked to each other then to the fairy as Pip wept while sitting on the dirt.

“Well then,” Kroanette spoke up while glancing to the caravan. “Shall we depart? We do have to get moving if we wish to make good time with reaching our homes.”

“I agree,” Falla quickly added. “Let’s get out of here already.”

Luna walked over and knelt down before Pip, the tiny fairy sniffling and looking up to her with watery eyes as Luna had a saddened smile on her face.

“Pip, there is a way you could get what you want still,” Luna gently reassured her. “All you have to do is earn Daniel’s love.”

“What?” the group exclaimed with surprise.

“His… love?” Pip asked wiping the tears from her eyes.

“Yes, his love,” Luna said with a cheery smile. “It’s just like what he taught us. If a girl, human or monster, is kindhearted and caring to a man, then the man will choose to be with that girl willingly. You don’t have to make conditions or deals to get his seed, Pip, you just need to earn his love.”

“Hold on, what?” Triska shouted out.

Pip sniffled then slowly rose up while her wings quickly fluttered behind her, the fairy watching Luna curiously as the butterfly girl nodded while holding up a finger.

“All you need to do is help Daniel and be nice to him. If he feels a deeper connection with you then you can have sex with him just like how those other girls do,” Luna reasoned before she gestured over to Daniel’s girls as they were all staring at her with bewilderment. “If it works for them then it will work for you.”

“Really?” Pip asked with renewed hope.

“Luna, what are you doing?” Alyssa yelled out. “We’re the only ones that get to be with Daniel, she’s not involved with this in any way!”

“But if we can have a chance with him then why not her?” Luna asked pointing to Pip, the fairy now looking at Daniel with wonder as he had a bad feeling where this was going to lead.

“You don’t have a chance with him,” Specca argued with a flustered huff. “How many times must we tell you? Daniel’s
our
mate, not-”

“Really?” Pip asked before she flew over and hovered in front of Daniel’s face. “If you love me then you’ll give me your seed? Is that how this works?”

“No!” Triska cried out as she and Squeak quickly grabbed hold of Daniel’s arms and pulled him back, with Alyssa then hopping over in front of him and holding her arms out to the sides.

“That’s not how this works at all!” Alyssa argued.

“You can’t have him!” Triska shouted out.

Squeak shook her head and squeaked something sternly at Pip while holding Daniel close to her.

“Of course it works that way,” Luna happily said, with Daniel and his girls looking to her with surprise. “He said it himself. He would choose to be with any kindhearted girl, monster or not.”

“He already chose who to be with!” Specca cried out.

“He chose us! Back off!” Triska ordered loudly.

Pip sniffled then quickly flew over in a blur to Daniel, clinging to his chest while looking up at him with pleading eyes.

“I love you, Daniel!” she begged while holding tightly onto his shirt. “I love you so much!”

“No you don’t,” Triska argued. “You’re just saying that to get his seed, you little liar!”

“I’m not lying!” Pip whined shaking her head with tiny tears falling from her face. “I love Daniel more than anything in all of Eden! I do!”

The fairy cried while clinging to Daniel as if for dear life and mumbling her words of affection for him then suddenly looked over to Squeak’s bosom with eyes of wonder, halting her sobbing instantly while the group watched her just stare at Squeak’s chest. After a moment Pip squealed with delight then shot towards Squeak with a bright smile on her face.

“Boobies!” she cheered as she quickly dove into Squeak’s tunic and made her way down in between the ant girl’s breasts. Squeak jumped with a loud squeak and started stumbling around while shaking her chest, squeaking and waving her hands wildly while the group just watched with blank expressions.

“Are all fairies insane?” Triska dryly asked as Squeak hopped around with a blush on her face.

“I wouldn’t know, this is the first I’ve come across,” Specca plainly replied.

Squeak staggered around before Pip popped up between her breasts with a giddy smile and held her hands on the ant girl’s chest.

“Wow, these are so big and soft. How much milk can you make with them?”

Squeak just stared at her with a stunned expression, seeming to be rendered squeakless to such an odd question in this situation. Pip giggled then leaned forward and seemed to hug the ant girl, with the group watching as the fairy nuzzled her head against Squeak’s chest while she was sandwiched between the ant girl’s breasts.

“So comfy,” Pip purred before relaxing and breathing quietly.

Squeak remained perfectly still as she glanced down to Pip, fearing any movement might make the perverted fairy start fondling her again, then looked around at the others with a nervous frown.

“What is she doing?” Falla asked shaking her head.

“I think… she’s asleep?” Daniel said tilting his head in question.

Everyone gathered closer as they saw the fairy sleeping peacefully while holding onto Squeak. The ant girl looked at Pip curiously then to the others with confusion and squeaked quietly.

“What do we do now?” Daniel asked.

“What do you mean?” Falla retorted. “Let’s ditch the fairy and get the hell out of here before she wakes up.”

Triska slowly walked closer and reached out for Pip, being very careful not to wake the perverted fairy while Squeak watched her with growing concern.

“Don’t wake her,” Specca nervously said with a hand over her mouth.

“Easy, easy, easy,” Alyssa cautioned while keeping on guard.

Very carefully Triska grabbed hold of Pip and slowly pulled her out of Squeak’s bosom. Everyone watched in silence as Triska then slowly knelt down and rested Pip on the grass.

“Alright,” Triska quietly cautioned while glancing around at everyone. “Now, let’s all quietly and slowly make for the caravan. Nobody make a sound.”

The group nodded and started walking towards their ride while watching as Pip remained motionless in the grass. Kroanette walked over to Lucky and brushed him gently while Daniel and the girls quietly boarded the ride, with Triska and Alyssa sitting up front while the others went inside their spacious living quarters.

“Okay, Lucky. Let’s go,” Alyssa hushed out as she took hold of the reins.

Kroanette took hold of Lucky’s harness and slowly guided him around towards the road, the horse trotting along next to her while pulling the caravan with no trouble. They made their way over onto the dirt road before Kroanette and Lucky started galloping at a faster pace, the wheels of the caravan rolling along the ground more loudly now as the travelers took off on their journey once again.

Inside the cabin Specca sat down at the table along with Luna and Falla, all of them breathing out in relief while Squeak and Daniel sat down on the bed together. The ant girl squeaked and held an arm around her bosom with unease while Daniel sighed and dropped back down onto the bed.

“That was… weird,” he summed up.

“Gee, you think?” Falla quipped.

“Was it rude to leave her all alone like that?” Luna asked worriedly.

“She’ll be fine,” Daniel said rubbing his eyes tiredly. “She knows how to use magic to take care of herself after all.”

“Alright then,” Specca said before she opened Daniel’s monster book on the table and flipped to a new page. “I suppose I’d better add an entry regarding fairies in here.”

“Make sure to note they’re crazy,” Falla mentioned.

“And so cute and tiny,” Luna giggled.

“And obsessed with breasts for some reason,” Specca added with a shrug.

“At least they’re nice, I think,” Daniel spoke up while staring at the roof above him. “I wonder if they could possibly be allies with mankind, provided Pip wasn’t the last of her kind.”

“I don’t know, Daniel,” Specca said while diligently writing in the guidebook. “They are magically gifted and appear friendly. However they also seem to be hard to speak to and keep a conversation focused with. Perhaps they could be considered allies, if not at least safe monsters to approach, however I don’t think they would be a good candidate for our quota.”

“But don’t worry, Daniel,” Luna added with a bright smile. “You still have us who can help you.”

“Yeah,” Falla dryly agreed. “By the way, I hope you have a great opening speech lined up. You know, something powerful but quick since everyone in the grove is going to be laughing at you in a matter of minutes.”

“Falla,” Specca snapped at her. “Have faith in Daniel. He convinced an alpha witch to listen to him, he persuaded an ant girl queen to give this a chance. He can do this.”

“He only got that witch’s approval by fucking all of you,” Falla remarked, earning a harsh glare from Specca and Squeak that caused her to smile nervously and hold her hands up defensively. “I mean, by making love to you all. And even so she’s not completely on your side with this. What’s Daniel going to do to get my sisters to stop laughing at him? Do me and Luna right in front of all of them as proof of his beliefs?”

Falla and Luna blinked, looked to each other, and then to Daniel with wonder as the boy was just staring at them with a raised eyebrow.

“Daniel,” Falla purred with a sly smile forming. “Is that your plan to convince our race of your words? Are we going to be your way of proving yourself to our kind?”

“Really?” Luna asked eagerly. “You’re going to do both of us then?”

“No!” Daniel quickly said while holding his hands out and shaking his head. “That wasn’t the plan at all!”

“Then what is your plan for talking to them?” Falla asked.

“Just that, to talk to them.”

“Doing us would be a lot more effective,” Falla reasoned with a sultry smile. “I mean, it’s all in the name of peaceful coexistence, right?”

“Falla, he said no,” Specca stated firmly. “Need we remind you that you cannot force or trick Daniel into doing anything with you against his wishes? That would be considered
rape
.”

Luna jumped with a squeak and held her hands over her mouth while Falla merely rolled her eyes and looked away from them.

“I’m sorry,” Luna whimpered. “I didn’t mean to suggest something that would be bad, Daniel.”

“It’s alright, Luna,” Daniel reassured with a weak smile. “You didn’t do anything wrong. I just wanted to be clear about what was happening when we got to your home.”

“Just saying,” Falla distantly mentioned. “It would definitely help if you showed such love towards us.”

“Daniel will do just fine without having to do such a thing,” Specca insisted before returning to her work in the book. “I’m sure your kind and Kroanette’s will see reason from us. We just need to find two more monster races afterward to help us and then Charlotte will stand by us as well.”

The travelers continued on their way towards Flairwood, with Lucky and Kroanette galloping along quickly while Triska and Alyssa kept on guard for anything else that might pop up on them.

“Say, Alyssa,” Triska spoke up. “Does your staff have anything to do with your magic? If Daniel held that and your focuser would that help him get in touch with the magical ether more?”

“Not really,” Alyssa said shaking her head. “It’s just used as support for the spells we witches cast. Using a wand or staff made with a proper enchantment can help stabilize or focus more demanding magic. But if Daniel can’t even conjure up a simple spell to begin with then my staff is worthless in all regards to him.”

“Made with a proper enchantment?” Triska asked looking to her.

“My staff was made from a tree near my home,” Alyssa explained. “The wood was enchanted to be fire-resistant and help me control my fire better. Or at least somewhat better. After all no sense in me using anything else if my fires would simply burn it up.”

“I see,” Triska said looking down with worry. “So then there really is nothing else we can do to help him with this?”

“If there was I would have already suggested it. I’ll lend my focuser and all my magic that I can to help him get a feel for it, but it all comes down to him gaining control over the ether on his own. I can only do so much for him.”

“Well, that still beats the alternative,” Triska reasoned with a shrug. “I think we’re all okay with him taking his time and practicing rather than eating out Pip.”

“Agreed.”

“I agree as well,” Kroanette spoke from next to them, the girls looking to seeing the centaur casually watching the passing landscape as she ran alongside the caravan. “Honestly, I do question whether or not what that tiny fairy said was true. Could she really endow someone with magical powers simply by having them perform oral service on her?”

“Who knows,” Alyssa replied. “I don’t know much about fairies myself, what magic they may possess is a mystery to me. Still, I’m willing to bet she couldn’t do such a thing.”
