I suppose... if it will be enough, it would be best if you .... used my breasts."</strong>The last three words were said much more softly, for she was quite embarrassed to be saying such things at all, let alone in such a place!  Using her mouth ... she wouldn't even know how to begin, because her only experiences had been with her husband, and that was something they hadn't tried.  He might have suggested it, but not forcefully, and he was of course very satisfied with "proper" intercourse.  So doing that now, here, would be far too much.<br/><br/>Offering her breasts... somehow that didn't seem quite so bad.  It would still be awful if word got out - but of course, it would not.  She shifted a little, to face the chieftain expectantly, nervously... she imagined he would be groping them, touching them, she didn't know what else he had in mind, though she wouldn't object once he began.  And then, the ritual complete, she could get up and get dressed again, and find out the whole story about this place.   So she told herself.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Rolls</div><div class="spoiler_body">Will save: 1d20a1 DC: 17 Result: <strong>5</strong> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=114410)  not even close<br/>Cha roll: 1d20a2 DC: 19 Result: <strong>6</strong> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=114411)  also not close!<br/></div></div>
