Charisma 100: My Academy Life As A Heartbreaking Commoner-Chapter 194: Old Flames*

Dinner was going well until Serilla walked in.

Aegis had been enjoying a quiet evening with Liora, actually. Good wine, better company, some light conversation about Liora’s progress with bardic magic. The kind of peaceful domesticity that almost made Aegis forget she was running a political campaign against the royal family.

Then the dining room door swung open.

"Started without me?" Serilla strode in like she’d paid for the building. "Rude."

"I hadn’t invited you yet," Aegis pointed out.

"Ah, well, consider this me saving you the trouble."

Serilla grabbed a chair, spun it around, and dropped into it backwards with her arms draped over the backrest. Her blouse was unbuttoned one button too many, giving Aegis a generous view of her cleavage. Probably intentional.

Her eyes swept the table. The wine, the food. And, then her eyes landed on Liora.

She froze.

[Oh, she hadn’t noticed her?]

The temperature in the room dropped about ten degrees.

"Liora." Serilla’s voice went flat. "Didn’t know you’d be here."

"Serilla." Liora’s smile was polite. "It’s been a while."

"Has it?"

"You know it has."

Aegis looked between them.

The awkwardness was thick enough to cut with a knife. Serilla, who was usually all confidence and swagger, was sitting strangely stiff. And Liora, the ultra-sweet Liora, had an expression that said she was trying to be nice.

"So," Aegis said, trying to break the tension. "Wine, Serilla?"

"Please."

A servant poured. Serilla drank half the glass in one go. The silence continued.

[... Well, this is painful to watch.]

"So," Serilla said, forcing casualness so hard it was almost painful to witness. "How’s the singing going?"

"It’s going well. Aegis has been very supportive."

"I’m sure she has."

"..."

"..."

Another awkward pause.

Aegis’s mind raced.

[Okay. I need some outside help.]

She closed her eyes.

[System, I really, really wanna turn this into a threesome. Help me out here.]

The System’s response was immediate. And unexpected.

Threesome Route

Options:

1. Leave The Room

There were no other options.

[What? You want me to just... abandon them here? Together?]

Aegis stared at those words.

[This better fucking work.]

She stood abruptly.

"I just remembered I need to check on something at Rosalie’s shop."

Both women looked at her.

"Now?" Liora asked.

"It’s urgent. Potion thing. Very time-sensitive." Aegis was already backing toward the door. "You two catch up. I’ll be back soon."

"Aegis—" Serilla started.

"Have fun!"

She was out the door before either of them could protest.

---

Rosalie’s shop was quiet this time of evening.

Aegis found the alchemist bent over a bubbling cauldron, muttering to herself about reagent ratios. Her green hair was tied back in a messy bun, and there were purple stains on her apron that Aegis decided not to ask about.

"Lady Starcaller?" Rosalie looked up, surprised. "I wasn’t expecting you."

"Surprise inspection."

"Is everything alright?"

"Everything’s fine. I just needed to kill an hour." Aegis hopped onto a stool. "What are you working on?"

"More fire resistance potions. The Cinderwolf Heart you brought me was incredible quality." Rosalie’s eyes lit up. "I’ve already produced three batches. Each one can withstand temperatures that would melt steel. I’ve got orders from six different houses already."

"Excellent. Keep it up."

Aegis watched her work for a while, letting the rhythmic bubbling of potions and the scratch of Rosalie’s notes fill the silence.

But her mind kept drifting back to the manor.

[What are they talking about? Are they fighting? Making up? Making out?]

She checked the time.

[Forty-five more minutes. This is torture.]

"Lady Starcaller?" Rosalie was looking at her curiously. "You seem distracted."

"Just thinking."

"About?"

"Women."

Rosalie giggled, blushing a little.

"I suppose you do have many of those to be worried about."

[You have no idea.]

---

An hour later, Aegis decided it was about time to head back.

She pushed through the dining room door and found Serilla and Liora still at the table.

But something had changed.

Liora was smirking. Actually smirking. The expression looked foreign on her usually sweet face, but it was still better than her looking cold.

And Serilla?

Serilla was blushing.

Serilla Frost. The most shameless woman Aegis had ever met. Sitting there with pink cheeks and avoiding eye contact like a schoolgirl who’d just been caught passing notes.

[What the hell did they talk about?]

The System chose that moment to provide a single dialogue option.

Dialogue Options:

1. "So, what did I miss?" [CASUAL]

[That’s it? That’s all you’re giving me?]

Aegis took a breath.

"So. What did I miss?"

Liora’s smirk widened.

"Oh, nothing much. Serilla was just telling me how she feels about you."

Serilla made a strangled noise.

"That’s not— I didn’t—"

"She used the word ’obsessed’ at least three times," Liora continued. She was clearly enjoying herself way too much. "Also ’infuriating’ and ’impossible to stop thinking about.’ It was very sweet."

Aegis’s brows shot up.

[Oh.]

"Liora, I swear to the gods—"

"And then I asked if she’d be willing to share you properly. Not just tolerate it, but actually share." Liora’s eyes met Aegis’s. "She said yes."

Aegis’s brain needed a second to catch up.

Serilla had just said yes. To sharing. Properly.

Serilla, the most aggressively confident woman Aegis had ever met, was sitting there red-faced and refusing to look at anyone.

And both of them were waiting to see what Aegis would do next.

[Holy shit. Holy shit. Okay. Don’t fuck this up.]

She walked over to Serilla slowly. Serilla had her face in her hands and her shoulders hunched.

Aegis crouched down in front of her chair.

"Hey."

"Go away."

"No."

She reached up and gently pulled Serilla’s hands down.

Aegis smiled.

Then she leaned in and kissed her.

It was slow and soft. Serilla made a small sound against her mouth and then she was kissing back, her hands coming up to grip Aegis’s collar.

When they broke apart, Serilla’s blush had spread all the way down her neck.

"I still hate you," she whispered.

"Sure you do."

Aegis heard movement behind her. She turned to find Liora standing there, watching them.

"That was sweet," Liora said. "But if you two are done being romantic..."

She stepped closer and pressed herself against Aegis’s back. Her tits pushed into Aegis’s shoulder blades and her breath was warm against Aegis’s ear.

"I believe someone mentioned sharing."

Aegis’s cock twitched.

Serilla’s eyes dropped. She noticed. Her blush somehow got even deeper.

"Bedroom," Aegis managed. "Now."

---

They barely made it.

Aegis had Liora’s dress half-off before they even reached the door. By the time they tumbled onto the bed, Liora was down to her underwear with her blonde curls spread across the pillows and her chest heaving like she’d just run a marathon. A very sexy marathon.

Serilla was already stripping. Her blouse hit the floor, then her skirt. She climbed onto the bed in nothing but her panties and her cock was already tenting the fabric.

[God, what a view.]

"How do we want to do this?" Aegis asked as she pulled her own shirt over her head.

Liora bit her lip.

"I want..." She hesitated. "I want both of you. At the same time."

Serilla’s eyebrows shot up.

"Both?"

"Both."

[Both is good. Both is very good.]

"I think we can arrange that."

They repositioned. Liora ended up on her hands and knees in the center of the bed with her ass in the air. Serilla knelt in front of her with her cock level with Liora’s face. Aegis moved behind and ran her hands over Liora’s hips.

"Ready?" Aegis asked.

Liora tried to answer, but Serilla chose that moment to push forward. Her cock slid between Liora’s lips and whatever response she’d intended came out as a muffled moan instead.

Aegis grinned.

She lined herself up with Liora’s pussy. She was already soaked and Aegis hadn’t even touched her yet.

[Someone’s been thinking about this for a while.]

She pushed in.

Liora’s whole body jerked. Her back arched and she drove her ass back against Aegis’s hips, taking her deeper. At the same time, her head bobbed forward and swallowed more of Serilla.

"Fuck," Serilla breathed with one hand tangled in Liora’s hair. "She’s good at this."

"I know."

Aegis started moving slowly at first to let Liora adjust. Each thrust pushed her forward onto Serilla’s cock, then back onto Aegis’s. They found a rhythm quickly. Aegis drove forward, Liora rocked between them, and Serilla held her head steady while fucking her mouth with shallow strokes.

"Harder," Liora gasped when Serilla pulled back for a moment.

Aegis was happy to oblige.

She grabbed Liora’s hips and started fucking her properly. The sound of skin slapping skin filled the room and Liora moaned around Serilla’s cock. The vibrations made Serilla shudder.

Their eyes met over Liora’s body.

Aegis leaned forward and Serilla did the same. They met in the middle and kissed. Below them, Liora whimpered with a cock in her mouth and another in her pussy. She was probably in heaven right now.

Aegis kept fucking Liora while she kissed Serilla. Her hips snapped forward, driving deep, and she felt Liora clench around her cock each time she bottomed out. Serilla’s hand found the back of Aegis’s neck and pulled her closer.

Liora came first.

Her whole body seized up and her pussy clamped down on Aegis’s cock. A strangled cry escaped around Serilla’s dick and her legs shook. Her arms nearly gave out.

The clenching was too much. Aegis thrust in one final time and came, flooding Liora’s pussy. She groaned into Serilla’s mouth as her hips jerked.

Serilla followed seconds later. She pushed deep into Liora’s mouth and came, spilling down her throat.

Liora swallowed. Good girl.

They collapsed in a pile.

For a while, nobody moved or spoke. Just heavy breathing and three very satisfied women.

Then Serilla stirred.

"I need to clean up."

She got up and disappeared into the bathroom. Aegis heard water running.

Liora rolled onto her side to face Aegis. Her cheeks were flushed and her lips were swollen and wet.

"So," Aegis said. "You want to tell me what you two actually talked about while I was gone?"

Liora’s smile widened.

"She’s got it bad for you, Aegis. Like, really bad."

"I gathered."

"No, you don’t understand." Liora propped herself up on one elbow. "She tried to play it cool at first. You know how she is. All swagger and confidence. But I dated her. I know her. And the way she talks about you..."

She shook her head.

"She’s not obsessed with having you. She’s obsessed with you. The way you think, the way you move, the way you make her feel like she’s not the most important person in the room for once." Liora laughed. "It’s driving her crazy."

[Huh. Serilla Frost, head over heels for little old me.]

"Be nice to her, okay?" Liora poked Aegis in the shoulder. "Under all that attitude, she’s actually kind of a mess."

"Aren’t we all?"

The bathroom door opened and out came Serilla. She was still naked but she looked slightly more composed for someone who had cum rolling down her thigh and had just received some of the best dick in Rosevale.

"What are you two whispering about?"

"You," Liora said.

"Fantastic. I’m going to get more wine."

She grabbed a robe from the closet and left. Aegis caught the faintest hint of a smile on her face before the door closed.

[Who would’ve thought.]

She pulled Liora closer.

"Round two when she gets back?" Liora murmured against her shoulder.

"Absolutely."

It had been a good night and it wasn’t over yet.
