Chapter 76 Linda Outsmarts The Vulture Maids! by Harem-Fan
Last night was interesting to say the very least. I really had a hard time getting Victoria out of my head. I even had a dream of making love to her on her desk in our classroom and it was unexpectedly nice.
"I think I have a teacher-fetish, sigh."
Currently changing in Mary's walk-in closet, I am putting on some swim-trunks. I am talking to myself in the standing mirror as I picked a black-pair. Remember when we moved in, Mary made me put most of my wardrobe in her bedroom to assure I spent more time with her by default, a smart plan actually.
Why am I wearing my trunks? Because Linda wanted to swim in her heated indoor pool while we studied. I like swimming and Hana's pool, though big, is outdoors and not as warm as an indoor pool.
Finally my dress is finished with my light-blue SU tracksuit. I packed my beach-towel and packed to go next door.
My wives already went out for their spa-day. Then Mei followed me over.
-
Knock Knock! As I announce I am here, Linda opened the door, but unlike normal she was wearing a tasteful full-length white-robe. She looks into my eyes and greets me.
"Greetings Rick, please enter."
So we both entered and she nodded to Mei Xia but did not chat with her more.
Yeah, I can tell she is pissed at both maids for being light-bulbs in an interrogation-room. I find her petty-side kinda cute actually. She reminds me of a young girl with a tantrum of having her toys stolen, except she does not yell or throw a tantrum, but just looks bullied.
And while my random thoughts filled my mind, we passed down a long hallway into a glass-room fully white with white stone and tiles with a natural feel to it. At the far end of the large school sized indoor pool is a fountain that pours water gently into the pool.
This indoor room gives you a feeling of an elegant greenhouse. In fact there are indoor tropical plants in large white-pots throughout the massive room.
In the center of the fountain pouring water is the symbolic statue of the Lang family, the Black Tortoise.
"Come with me Rick, let us sit here to work."
Linda has me sit with her at a small poolside table with her school things ready to work. The sun is perfectly overhead and gives us the right amount of lighting in this room. I also noticed there are automatic shutters on the windows so you can block out excess sunlight.
Linda picked up a remote and chose the right light level for us, then played some classical music at background level. I also noticed one other key-feature in this room...
The only chairs with cushions are the two we are using and only stone benches decorate the rest of the room. So the maids stand or sit on stone?!
I can tell by the twitching face of Mercy, Linda just hid the other cushions while she was unaware. I can tell the two maids don't mind with their training but it still is uncomfortable for the whole couple of hours.
-
About an hour later, Linda looked into my eyes and gently asked me.
"Rick, do you know the two reasons I joined business for my primary degree?"
"I just assumed it was to run your Lang family businesses?"
She shook her head and told me.
"No, as a spare daughter, I will be married off to another family for politics or benefits. So I can only run my own personal businesses separate from my family."
I sip my iced tea and nod.
"The first reason is to make my own fashion company. I love designing women's clothing. I have had a talent for it since I was young. Half of the clothing you have always seen me in, including my Prom Dress, were all made by me. You do remember my dress, right?"
"A long shoulderless pure-white dress that is wrapped around your neck."
When I told Linda that, she actually smiled a very small amount, and it was not her forced creepy smile, but one of a woman hearing something important to her. She then said to me.
"The fact you remembered that, on such a terrible night, really makes me happy. I had looked for you when I came out of the store, and when I did not see you on your bench, my heart sank. That was the moment I knew..."
She shook her head and stood, she then asked.
"Let's take a short swim break and I will show you my swimsuit I personally made."
So Linda pulled me up and I then took off my sweats and was now in only my black swim-trunks.
All three women were surprised by the fact my body had changed so much over the last almost 4 months.
No, I am no massive bodybuilder, but my muscles had begun to take on a lean and firm structure ideal from my skills like Martial Arts and Acrobatics. My body has achieved more of a swimmers body and the amount of work I have put in was rewarded with three sets of eyebrows raising.
Yes, even Mei had not seen me shirtless yet. Sure, my foes might be more handsome than me, but with my Medical knowledge, I was able to rebuild myself in a healthier fashion.
But then when looking more closely, some small scars could also be seen on my body from my many beatings, nothing massive, but a hard life is shown on my form as well as my hard work. I was not only beaten with fist, but occasionally branches and the like.
Well I also had some accidents as a kid, like that time I fell two stories from a high tree branch, and the worst, my very first beating from Scott. I think the only reason Scott is alive is he never destroyed my manhood. I guess deep down it shows he did not cross that truly disgraceful line. I probably would be a murder-hobo if he had ruined my family jewels for sure.
Linda, seeing me like that, held in her tears and let her white-robe fall, showing me her black-silky-two-piece held up by two strings that tied around her neck to hold in her soft large chest. On each hip, was black-strings that tied into a bow and clearly can be pulled to strip her bare if one was so bold. A very erotic swimwear for an ice-cold beauty.
I too had never seen Linda's body and this is my first look at her almost naked form. She is not overly athletic, but she has the perfect all around blend of healthy and soft body curves.
SPLASH! To break the strange trance the women are in, I only smile and just dive into the pool waking them all up!
Linda, seeing me smile and leap in, just nodded her head and gently lowered herself into the water.
Apparently, Linda had not told her maid or mine about the swim so they could not wear suits and interfere with us in the water. She hid from the vultures underwater like a turtle!
-
After about ten minutes of freestyle laps the two of us kinda just relaxed at the far end by the turtle fountain. The water drops about from five feet up and muffles sound, allowing for private talking.
"Rick, you did not ask what my second reason was?"
I smile at this transparent woman and guess.
"You wanted to spend some time getting to know me better, right?"
"Yes."
"I am glad I learned the truth about us. But, I don't think we will have much of a chance for more, right? Well with your family."
"Rick... I would leave my family."
I shake my head for her to not do that. Her eyes look confused and hurt and she asks.
"Why, Rick? Do you hate me?"
"No, I do not hate you, silly. I promise, you won't have to marry Scott. I have plans to stop your wedding."
Her eyes about to shed a tear then looked shocked and she asked.
"Can you stop my engagement? But then I will just have to marry some other person, so..."
"Silly Linda, just handle one crisis at a time. I don't know what the future holds but don't throw away your family bond just yet. I only need to join the tigers then your freedom from Scott is assured."
Linda looks confused and tries to learn more.
"Rick you're talking in riddles, join tigers, do you mean you might join the Tang clan?!"
"It is only a possibility, I am not sure it will happen, only that it might."
She takes a deep breath and asks me.
"Will you marry Tina Feng?"
I don't want to lie to anyone about my love-life, so I am honest.
"That's the plan, yes."
Linda examined my eyes and face to see something unknown and she with a soft voice asked me.
"Do you still like me, Rick? I mean, does your heart think of me, more than friends?"
I know Linda is not a woman that speaks half words, like her father she is proud and lying to her is hard.
"My heart is confused about you Linda. I have guilt, care, and a long kept unrequited-crush. I think I could easily fall for you, but our situation is complicated. But the one feeling I know is solid is... I want you to be safe."
Linda nodded her head in understanding then told me.
"Rick Lee, I am sure I am falling for you. You're the only man I want to spend my remaining days with. You do not need to respond. But, you need to know my heart. I will wait for your heart to find me."
My smile is a bit ashamed that this cold woman can open her heart so easily to me, while I struggle in my heart. But to hear her be so bold here and now, a single thought came to me.
"I did enjoy holding your hand in the movies."
Linda, feeling embarrassed from my simple and honest confession, just splashed my face with water waking me up from my memories of that night.
So for a short while we did not talk about the heavy topic and just played like kids for a bit.
Our pool study visit had come to an end and we left it like that, time for me and Linda to think on our words and not rush into anything, but we both made things clear.
-
Back at home Mei asked me.
"So what did you and Miss Lang talk about?"
"The Past, Present, and Future."
Mei looked confused and probed.
"You looked so serious, it must have been a love confession!"
I shake my head, though she is partially right, but...
"No, I think we are just trying to confirm our friendship right now and nothing more, so just worry about more important things, like tonight."
Mei sees she is getting no good gossip and switches gears.
"I have a ticket to go, so I shall accompany you Rick. Lots of bad figures will be there and I don't want to be too far. I promise I won't interfere with your date, fufu."
I looked at her and asked.
"I suppose work gave you VIP tickets? And shall I ask for you to drive in her car or one of ours?"
"Yup, my boss sent me two tickets for us if Victoria hadn't invited you, so I will use one, and for the car, drive the Chevrolet Camaro SS, and I will just sit in the back while you two sit up front. It will give you good street racing if things were to go sideways. Plus women like Victoria like cool cars secretly."
"Okay then I will send her a text to pick her up."
-
After a cuddle night with the wives, I got ready for tonight. This time I dressed in my Bodyguard outfit and am doing a pro-bono protection for Victoria due to any political scrutiny we might get for being a Tang and her being a Long.
Naturally she and I know we don't care, but we don't want rumors to spread negatively about the two families.
Hana was more than happy for me to take her car for the trip over to the sports arena, plus they had spent the day with her so they understood I was partly working here.
-
At 9:45 pm, I pull up to the front doors of the Velvet Tower and I see Victoria wearing a pants-suit this time and not one with a skirt. It is in black with a long and light black-knee-length-coat. Her hair is loose and she is wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Mei opened the door for her and hopped in-behind her seat so Victoria could get in. She smiled looking at the Chinese maid in the back and asked.
"Hello Miss Mei Xia, I am surprised you are attending? You also had VIP tickets?"
Mei hates that Victoria is sharp so she lies.
"While my master was out, someone from the Tang gave him two tickets to go, so I wanted to come and help my master Lee. Also I like watching fights, it's funny."
I make sure Victoria is buckled in right and then greet.
"Hello Teacher Long. I am glad you came tonight, so I won't feel as awkward not knowing many people. Now hold on."
I then take off making Victoria feel her stomach get pulled into the seat a bit. I did not drive recklessly, but I did stay at the maximum safe speed-limit with agile maneuvering around other cars just narrowly avoiding nicking them.
-
As I parked in the parking garage of the Star Arena, Victoria continued to hold her seat-belt looking straight in front making herself calm, then she turned to my grinning face and bluntly told me.
"Hana told me you were an amazing driver, but I will never let you drive me again. I will drive. I stopped thinking I would die halfway here but... My heart can't take your exciting way of driving, sigh."
Her vicious and true words broke my heart, and I took over 9000 damage from her cruel words!
When Victoria saw my sad face she felt a bit sorry. She then backtracked.
"Mr Lee, if you can drive more like I do, then I will get in the car with you, just remember, I have a delicate heart for thrills."
Mei Xia in the back assured Victoria.
"Dont worry Miss Long, I have started to drive for the young master, and I will make sure you are safe."
Then the three of us in our mostly black attire went to enter the Star Arena.
-
Well the security checkpoint was a pain in the ass...
My maid got through security with her hidden weapons because they are all made of a heavy-ceramic that is as strong as metal but does not set off body scans.
Victoria showed our temporary contract for my license to allow my two guns in, and they reluctantly let me in.
Well Victoria threatened them. She said if she found a single bodyguard in the event with a hidden gun, she would use all of her family's resources to drag them through court.
This whole thing stunk of Tony's dad, but they caved real quick when she threatened them.
Now don't be mad at Tony, he is actually a cool guy, but his father is old fashioned and is part of the Song related factions.
-
Side by side, Victoria and I walked out of the long underground corridor and into the Smaller Octagon Arena used for martial arts tournaments. This is not a true stadium for concerts and sport events so the seating is more limited and personal here.
Mei is behind us but she is lowering her presence as much as possible to not stand out. But with Victoria in front of her this is far easier to accomplish.
Victoria looking at the VIP area near the front of the Cage says to me.
"All of the first 7 rows to the cage are designated VIP and we can sit anywhere in-there, but, the unspoken-rule for the four main families is we tend to sit in the cardinal directions like the four States. So as a Long I would sit in the Western seats and the Tang over in the Eastern seats. The families siding with the four main families tend to follow this trend as well. So the Song is with the Eastern Tang, understand?"
Mei pointed to the Tang side and said to us.
"See there Master Lee, your cousin and his wives are there. Oh and it seems Miss Helen Tang is here as well, so Scott will have to behave, fufu."
I look to Victoria for her thoughts.
"Teacher Long, how should I navigate this multi faction mess I am in? I have relations with most, but less with the Lang? And you're my only connection really with the Long?"
Victoria already noticed some looking in our direction suggested to me.
"Let me and your maid sit near the North West close to the Feng, and go greet the ones you are close with, then... Come and sit with me during the event. This way you won't snub your friends, but you can show your working and in more of a neutral seating."
I feel she is probably right there, so I will go do that, but I have to not show Tina too much closeness like she said. So I tell them.
"Alright, then Mei contact me if you need me there fast. And Vic-, Miss Long, I will return to you before the event." (Rick and Mei have their collars on.)
Vicky smiled at me and asked. If this story is on any-other site than Scribble Hub, then it was stolen without permission!
"You were going to call me Victoria, right? No, I think in time when we are out of school and in private, that would feel better, then I will call you Rick in those times as well, how is it?"
I see she is having a bit of fun with her teacher elder sister role, and feel a bit of Mary coming from her, so I smile and tell this charmer.
"Then Victoria, I will be back."
In the East side, I see someone I know and have not said hi to in a while, and head to him first!
