Divine Artifact in a Scientific World

"Are you really going to collect every kinky girl you meet?" Madison asked.

He had to admit, part of him did like the idea of surrounding himself with attractive women who all craved his touch. But he could tell she was asking because she was worried she'd become a minor character in his life.

"I have no serious plans beyond Katie, Analise, and Robin. Naoko was just a pleasant surprise. Still, you need to get comfortable with the idea that I'll encounter more pleasant surprises in the future."

"But there's only one of you," said Nora. "What happens when you have so many girls you can barely spend any time with each of them? Would that really be fair?"

"Technically, with parallel self, there's two of me, but I get your point. It would be unfair if I had hundreds of harem girls and most of them wanted to spend regular time with me. But I don't see that happening. Hundreds of soul bonds, yes; hundreds of harem girls, no."

"Besides, for the most part, I try to make sure the girls I date know about my harem and its size from the very beginning. So they know what they are getting into before things get serious. I didn't with Naoko because I didn't think she would mind."

Looking at Naoko, he asked, "Was I wrong?"

"Strangely, no. The way Samantha and Madison look at you is very different from the way my mother and my father's other mistresses look at him. He looks at them like they are toys, playthings. But with our soul bond, I know that you care about all of your girls. I can feel it when you look at them, at me."

"And I'm excited to see who else he'll add. And I think Katie will be too," said Samantha.

"And Miranda told me she'd be happy to help him find quality candidates," added Madison.

"Like Evalyn Tanner," added Samantha. "I really want to see what she's like in person."

"As for Analise and Robin, we'll see," he said. "They both know I have other girlfriends, but haven't met any of them yet. Analise said she's not certain how comfortable she is with sharing, but is willing to try. And I think Robin may be less okay with it than she said."

He looked at Samantha. "I was originally thinking of introducing Analise to Miranda, but now that you've joined my family, I'm thinking of introducing her to you instead. Are you comfortable going on a date with me and Analise?"

"Yes, I'd love to!" she said. Then asked, "Wait! Are you talking about Analise Bennet?"

"Yep."

"Oh wow. I have her in my physics class! We sit next to each other and she was practically glowing when she came into class yesterday. She didn't tell me much, just that she had a really nice weekend."

"Yeah, we had a date on Saturday," he said.

"Well, no wonder she was so happy," said Samantha.

"Happy? That girl is on cloud nine," said Naoko. "The way she was looking at Jack in chemistry class, I figured he fucked her good and hard."

She wasn't wrong.

"Did you?" asked Samantha.

"We had a lovely time, and she seemed to enjoy herself," he said, trying to give off 'a gentleman never tells' vibes, but still grinning like a wolf.

"I'll bet you did," teased Naoko. "Does she like it hard and fast? Did she beg you to pound her pussy?"

In a firm admonishing tone he said, "Naoko!" And at the same time sent a mental slap down their connection.

She flinched, then got a sheepish look.

"What happens between myself and any of my women will remain between us unless the woman in question says it's okay to share it with others. Understand?"

She nodded, then said, "Sorry. Yes, I understand. I'm just excited. And, um, you can share whatever you want about me with any of your other women."

"Sure, okay," he said. "So, with the exception of Nora, Rina, and Madison, I ask that all my soul bonds limit their use of parallel self so I can maximize EP accumulation. But it's okay to pop in for a few moments if you need to talk, or if you need extra brain power during a test."

Then he added, "I'm spending tonight with Samantha, but if you want, we can get together tomorrow night."

"I would love to, but there's one little problem."

She did not sound happy.

"What?"

"I have to get a virginity test once a week, or my father will cut me off."

Oh, that's just fucked up! He thought.

Why would her father do that? Her reason for offering him her ass took on a new meaning. Before he thought it was because she was just into that sort of thing. But now it seemed like she'd made the offer because she didn't want to risk losing her virginity.

Madison chuckled.

"You think that's funny?" said Naoko angrily.

"Sorry, sorry," said Madison. "I wasn't laughing at your situation, 'cause that sounds horrible. It's just that Jack is filthy rich. So now you can tell your daddy dearest to go fuck himself."

Naoko looked at him and asked, "Rich?"

"Six hundred and fifty million credits," he said.

"Fuck me!" she exclaimed.

"Oh, he's going to," muttered Madison.

"How?" asked Naoko.

"Redball lottery."

"That was you??!"

"Yep."

"Damn. My father talked about how you handled collecting the money. He had nothing but praise. Said he couldn't have done it better himself. He said the disguise was a masterstroke. Without it, the leeches would have found you. Especially that newscaster bitch. He said he's met her, and she's a grade A gold digger."

"Told you!" Madison said to Jack. Then to Naoko she added, "I wanted him to take a dick pic and mail it to her with the words "Suck it!" but he refused.

Naoko laughed. "That would have just encouraged her to dig harder."

"Why is your father trying to keep you a virgin?" he asked.
