When the morning came, she hadn't left early as she usually did. So I greeted her with a bit of soft rubbing between her legs. There was no sudden explosive growth of her belly or anything. Whatever happened with Berry was simply some kind of fluke. Prima accepted my touch until she came again, and then rolled over to stare into my eyes..
She still didn't make it a point of talking further than the two lines she said last night. But she eventually got up and with only the slightest of wobbling at first, left my room wordlessly.
I was let out for sun a few hours later. Prima had brought me another leg of whatever I ate last night before that, and bound me up with ropes once I finished eating. I enjoyed some of the sun's rays, noting that it was much earlier in the morning than I thought it would be when I came outside. She deposited me in the care of Tree-chopper the lazy guard only to disappear quickly after.
It was a nice morning. Not too brisk for being stark naked, so I started doing a few warm up exercises like stretches, a light jogging in place, modified jumping jacks and found a body appeared from behind me, throwing her arms around me and reaching down to run a hand over my flapping cock in the wind.
It was Jewel.
Well, she's pretty sexually aggressive, so a little harassment from her isn't all bad.
She had a bow and a quiver of arrows slung around her shoulder, and she said she was off to hunt something. So any magic I wanted to use would have to wait until she returned. That was fine with me, as I was about to get started on exercises anyway. I gave Jewel a playful swat on the butt and sent her on her way.
Tree-chopper had wanted to work out with me again as it was, since she had been doing the three exercises I showed her daily while I was on strike. She had improved a bit, though push ups were still her weakness. I had offered to show her a few variations on them, maybe to help her find one she was more comfortable using, but she preferred to do them the same way I did. We talked while taking turns doing sit ups, and she mentioned having visited Berry's to see the new addition I made for her and Diana.
She wasn't the only goblin to visit Berry's cave-hole. Word had spread quickly throughout the cave, and all of the goblins who had visited thought the room was something amazing. Berry had already filled the shelves within the bedroom with many things, and according to the lazy guard, she had left the cave early this morning with Diana to go hunting.
Hunting, to the goblin tribe, isn't just hunting prey. It's a catch-all term used to mean going into the forest to do something. Essentially, since there are wild beasts in the forest, more often than not if one can be caught or killed easily, then it was, and so securing any kind of food supply naturally became hunting. I suspect Berry was either gathering food for herself through foraging, for trading with other goblins, or perhaps even trying to show Diana how to be a real goblin while out there and teaching her how to use poisons to secure a kill.
Hopefully Diana was being a good goblin as well. I had a lot of faith in Berry giving her all to raise our daughter for some reason.
One of the goblins I had yet to meet, or one who might have been there when I picked Berry that night, I admit to not remembering what each of the others looked like, and certainly not what they do around here, had come to greet me.
"Husband."
"Hello." I greeted her. She had cinnamon hair which fell gingerly over her shoulders and long bangs as well. I wondered immediately if she had any carpet to match the drapes. But I would wonder that of any redhead.
"Husband, know this?"
She had something bundled up in her hand and when she opened them, I saw, of all things, a pair of my underwear! Just seeing an intact pair made me really want to have them, or at least a loincloth at this point.
"Sure. They are something like my loincloth. Want me to show you how to wear them?"
She was eager to find out.
"Ah, wait. I can't show you because of the ropes around my ankles. Oh! I can put them on you instead."
"Me wear?" she asked curiously.
"Yeah, your feet go into them through these holes and then you pull them up. For me they are supposed to cover my seed-stick, for you they would cover your fuckhole."
She nodded as I unfurled them and opened them wide as I guided her dirty feet into each hole meant for a leg to pass through and then pulled them up her body to her slender waist. Now, the thing is, there's no elastic band around the waist and as a goblin her waist was slimmer than mine, so the result was that they just slid off and fell down.
She was a bit let down to find out that was what they were for, so she offered to give them to me in exchange for being picked soon. I was quite happy to receive them with those as the only terms.
"Husband, when pick next goblin give big seed?"
"I don't know for sure, but soon. Prima was probably giving me one day to rest and make big seed again since I hadn't eaten in days and she would want to make sure it's big seed that I'm giving." I said, not actually knowing if that was the reason or not, but it was accepted by this goblin easily enough.
"Hunt together Jewel. Talk first time get Husband big seed. My turn, want same. Make legs bend like reeds all day. Not be… gentle."
"You're sure that's what you want?"
"What want when pick." her mouth opened to show her razor sharp teeth.
After agreeing, she meandered off before I could find out more about her. Lazy guard was happy to fill in the blanks for me, though. She was the resident Fish-catcher of the goblin tribe. She did most of her hunting in the stream a fair distance away, and mostly traded fishbones with Bone-taker.
"I kind of wish I knew which goblin picked vegetables."
A bit more conversation with Tree-chopper at least revealed there was one who did hunt for fruit, which I hoped to god also meant vegetables. Though, a ripe apple that didn't have worms crawling through it would be nice, too...
