Tehr followed the dark haired maid through the halls, only barely managing to refrain from whistling.  He was in a good mood, he'd met with the lord of the house and in his estimation things had gone fairly well.  His head was a little bit light from the wine, but he'd managed to avoid drinking more than a few cups.  Just enough, he thought to himself.<br/><br/><em>'Enter'</em>came through the doors and the maid pushed the door open and Tehr stepped into the room before he'd fully realized what the room was.  His first clue was the change in the moisture in the air.  Then a split second later the visual struck him.  Six women and a child lounging in a bathing pool.  Tehr's mind immediately blanked and all of the rules of how to act around other nobility left his mind.  For a moment he was only staring at the partially obscured nude forms of the women in front of him.  The top of Emily's breasts, floating above the water, her pert nipples hidden just below the surface.  Eeva's smooth skin and muscular form, dripping wet and shining in the light.   Even the matron's aged but still attractive body, what he could see of it, seemed to be improved by age.  Plus three other women.. wet... naked...<br/><br/>The lady of the house spoke and Emily laughed, standing up.  Water rolled down her compact form, glistening skin, beading and catching on her form.  Her hair done up and held in place by clips to keep it dry, yet every other part of her body gloriously wet and shining as she stood and turned slightly towards Tehr.<br/><br/>Then he felt a slight prod at his hip and he heard the maid speak.<em>"Should I have warned you?"</em>she asked, the humor in her voice clear even without having to look down at her face.  Suddenly time seemed to restart for Tehr.  This wasn't an erotic display, this was just a family bathing room.  The small child should have removed any aspect of sexuality from it.  Yet Tehr was obsessed when it came to these things, and Emily was one of his favorite lovers, and Eeva had just joined the ranks of women he'd bedded.  So in a way he couldn't help his reaction.<br/><br/>GODS ABOVE!  He realized he WAS having a reaction.  He quickly turned his back to the pool and wondered if they'd noticed the bulge forming in his trousers.  Damn these noble clothes.  They were far too tight at times.  Maybe they hadn't noticed?<br/><br/>From behind he heard a tittering laugh from one of the women, he knew not which.  He closed his eyes and willed himself not to blush and said out loud, "I hope you pardon my interruption.  I've finished conversing with the Lord of the house and thought to find Mistress Emily.  I'd no intention on barging in, forgive me."<br/><br/>Again, he heard laughter behind him.  A quiet giggle, one that he took as amusement at his reaction, and not meant to be malicious.  A voice, not one of the three that he'd recognize spoke from the tub, "Oh Claudia, you're so bad!"  A slight snicker at Tehr's side told him the voice was speaking to the maid.<br/><br/>Then the voice of the Matron spoke out, "There's no reason to avert your eyes Master ir'Wynt.  We're simply bathing, a natural thing."<br/><br/>Tehr nodded then felt foolish or doing so with his back to the woman, "Indeed your uh, ladyship.  I, uh, simply was unsure...uh, of protocall.  Things are done quite differently in human houses you see."  Tehr swallowed, if he turned around now, his erection would be clear to all in the room.  If he'd shown it earlier he didn't know.  But he wouldn't risk embarrassing the women with such a crass display.  "If it pleases you, I'll wait in the hallway for Emily?"  Then without waiting for permission to leave he stepped back into the hall and pressed his back to the wall, letting out a giant sigh of relief.<br/><br/>From behind he heard a few more quiet giggles and hushed talking.  It wasn't until the higher pitched voice of the child spoke up and he could make out the child's question, "Mummy, why did he run away like that?"  Followed by more quiet and polite giggles.  Tehr placed his face in his hand and groaned.  That could have gone better.<br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">http://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=46492<br/>Roll Result: rhev rolled: 1d20, adding 8 to the total<br/>Comment: <strong>Tehrs reaction to the bath</strong><br/>Result: 6, <br/><strong>Total: 14</strong></div></div>
