A GRAND ADVENTURE
Chapter 10

Jess dressed quickly with her back towards the men, who really weren't paying much attention to her. Once dressed Ron called her out to the front area of the tent and began showing her where things were. Suddenly one of the native workers ran up shouting something in his native language. Ron called over to Jess, "Come with me," and he and Albert ran off with Jess following them.

When they got to the work area Jess was surprised to see about six people she hadn't seen before. Ron had a conversation with what seemed to be the leader with one of the porters translating for them. Jess couldn't understand either. After 15 minutes or so of talk, one on the natives ran off while the others stayed. "What's going on?" Jess asked.

Ron turned to her after saying something to the leader via the translator and spoke softly. "These men are from a local tribe. I didn't even know they were around. Evidently their chief doesn't like us here and wanted us to leave. I convinced the leader to allow me to speak to their chief. Hopefully I can convince him to let us stay. A runner has gone back to their village relaying my request to speak to the chief. For now we wait."

"Are we in danger?" Jess asked feeling a little frightened.

"Right now no. They seem friendly, just a little leery of us. White men are very rare in this area," he replied. "I told the leader you are interested in his people, but don't speak the language and he gave us permission to talk so I can explain things to you. I want you to stay calm and talk softly. Most important, do exactly what I tell you to do without hesitation. Don't make any moves that might upset them or make them feel threatened," he added and Jess nodded.

Jess looked at the men, her first really native people. Of the six men, two were carrying bows and arrows and the other four had spears. They were wearing what she thought were sarongs and each had a small breastplate of beads on his chest, tied around their necks. Ron's workers had stopped what they were doing and just sat on the ground. The natives seemed to be watching everyone, but not threatening them.

About a half hour later the runner returned. After a brief conversation Ron, Albert, and the translator stood up. "Come with me, Jess, and stay close. We're going to their village." The leader stopped them and held up two fingers. Another brief conversation followed and the leader finally nodded.

They started walking with two natives in front of them and the other four following. "We were told two people could go. I explained the two would be Albert and me, but we needed the porter to translate for us and that you were mine and you go where I go. He was reluctant, but finally agreed," Ron explained to Jess.

They walked for about an hour before arriving at a small village. People came out of their huts to see the visitors, crowding around them, but then quickly parted when what was probably their chief approached. He was accompanied by what looked like four guards and two younger people, a boy and a girl, who looked to be around Jess's age. Jess was struck by the fact all the women and girls were topless and the young children were naked.

"Pay attention and do exactly what I tell you. When the chief is in front of us, bow to him," Ron whispered to Jess. The chief walked through the crowd of people and stopped in front of Ron. He bowed to the chief and the rest of the party did the same. The chief looked irritated and said something to the leader. The translator was whispering to Ron as the chief spoke. Finally the chief nodded. Ron softly explained to Jess that the chief was mad about there being four of them, but the leader explained why to him and he seemed to accept that.

Jess watched as Ron started talking to the chief using the translator, but the chief seemed more interested in what the boy next to him was saying and put his hand up to Ron. The chief said a few words to the boy, then motioned with his hand. One of the native girls ran up and stood between Ron and the chief while dropping her sarong so she was naked. The chief said something to Ron and he responded. Once more the chief motioned with his hand and a second girl came out of the crowd also dropping her sarong to the ground, so now there were two naked girls.

More conversation ensued and the chief nodded. Jess hadn't been paying attention to what might be being said. Instead her focus was on the two girls, probably her age, just standing there naked like it was an everyday thing. "Jess, are you listening?" Ron said, evidently for the second time.

"Yes, sorry," Jess finally answered.

"You saw the two girls, right?" Ron began, talking softly, and Jess nodded. "The chief offered them in trade for you. His son, the boy next to him, has never seen a white girl and the chief wanted you for him. Of course I refused, explaining you were mine and I wanted to keep you. I did offer a compromise which the chief seemed to appreciate. I told him his son could look at you. Now listen carefully and do exactly as I say. I want you to take your clothes off and let the chief's son look at you. I will be right here and will not let any harm come to you. Do you understand?"

"You want me to get naked right here? ...now? ...so the chief's son can see me?" Jess questioned, trying to sound calm.

"Yes. It is important the chief is happy. The whole expedition depends on him letting us work on his land. You saw how the girls acted that were to be traded. I want you to act in the same way. Stay calm. Just take your clothes off and let him look at you. He may touch you, but I doubt it. If he does, let him. You are to make no movements to block him. If necessary I will stop him, but you are to do nothing. It is very important! This whole expedition is now resting on you," Ron explained.

Jess was nervous and afraid, but had to trust Ron. Slowly she unbuttoned her shirt rationalizing she was the only girl there not topless anyway. Jess blushed anyway as she took her shirt off and the chief's son stepped closer evidently to get a better look. Her heart was pounding and her fingers trembled as she undid her shorts. Jess looked up at the people, now all staring at her. She was about to expose herself in front of all.

"You're doing fine. Stay calm," Ron encouraged as Jess began to lower her shorts. The girl next to the chief gasped and said something to the chief, but he waved her off. The translator leaned toward Ron and whispered something. Jess's shorts bunched at her feet, exposing her panties.

"Jess, listen carefully. The girl is the chief's daughter and she is impressed by your panties. When you take them off, I want you to offer them to her," Ron whispered to Jess. She looked at him wide eyed. "Offer the chief's daughter your panties," he repeated and Jess nodded. "Stay calm. I will protect you. You're doing great. I know how hard this is for you, but it's the only way," Ron told Jess trying to comfort her.

Jess stepped out of her shorts and her trembling hands went to her panties. Her breathing was heavy. "Go on..." Ron whispered. Jess took a deep breath, then pushed down on her panties and they puddled at her feet. She bend down and slipped them off her feet without looking up. She was now completely naked and she could feel a flush coming over her face. "Give them to the chief's daughter," Ron whispered.

Her hand was shaking so badly she thought she might drop her panties, but somehow managed to calm herself enough that she could hold her hand out with the panties for the girl. A big grin came over her face and she looked at the chief, who nodded. The girl ran the few steps it took to get to Jess. As she did she loosened the sarong she was wearing and let it drop to the ground.

The chief's daughter, now as naked as Jess, took the panties and looked at them, turning them in different ways. "Show her how to put them on," Ron whispered. The girl's excitement distracted Jess from her situation. She reached out and took the panties and held them out.

They weren't really fancy, but were trimmed with lace at the waist and had a lace panel at each hip. Jess held the panties so the leg hole was on top and shook her head. She then held them by the other leg hole and again shook her head. Finally she held them by the waist band and nodded. She showed the girl the tag and pointed to her back. At first the girl just looked, then realized what she was seeing and nodded as she smiled.

Jess bunched up the panties and handed them back to the girl. Slowly the girl turned them in her hands, eventually holding the waistband at the top. She looked at Jess and Jess nodded, making the girl smile. The girl then looked inside the waistband, found the tag, then twisted and pointed to her lower back. Jess nodded and the girl grinned, then stepped into them.

The girl pulled up the panties and Jess helped her smooth them. She acted like she was wearing a million dollar gown as she turned towards her father with a big smile on her face. The chief smiled and nodded. The girl walked back to her father, standing next to him. The boy then walked up to Jess, reminding her why she was naked.

He said something, pointing at her pussy, making her blush again. The translator repeated what he had said to Ron and Ron answered. As the translator relayed the message to the boy, Ron whispered to Jess, "He asked about your pussy hair, or lack of it. I told him in our culture many shave it off, but you do have hair."

The boy's hand extended and brushed above Jess's pussy, feeling the slight stubble. He nodded. Jess's breath was catching as he touched her. Ron noticed and whispered, "You're fine. He is just seeing where you are different and where you are the same as the girls in his village. Try and relax." The boy's fingers brushed her nips and much to her horror they hardened under his touch.

He knelt down and his hand went between her tightly closed legs, seemingly indicating he wanted her to open them. Jess looked up at Ron and he nodded. Her eyes closed as she parted her legs. She felt him pull her pussy lips apart making her blush. He then flicked her clit a few times, giving her those erotic jolts. He stood back up, but she kept her legs parted.

Jess opened her eyes and saw the unmistakable bulge in his sarong. He had an erection! She couldn't help but smile and it made her wonder what it looked like. He noticed her looking and smiled. It made her feel good that her body had affected him. He walked around behind her and his hand brushed her ass. A finger pressed in, running up her ass crack. As quickly as he started, it ended, almost making Jess wish he kept exploring her body.

The boy walked back to the chief, who said something to him and he nodded and smiled. The chief then looked at Ron smiling and nodded to him. Two chairs were carried out and Ron and the chief sat down and started talking via the translator. The other people began to disperse as well, leaving Jess standing there naked still. She wasn't sure what to do, so did nothing. All the girls were topless anyway and she was getting used to being naked since no one seemed to be paying much attention to her.

She noticed the chief's son with one of the girls from the tribe who had been naked and still was. He led her to one of the huts and she went in. He then looked at Jess and waved and she waved back. He then pointed to her, his eyes, then at his crotch, which was still bulging. She wasn't sure what he meant, but nodded hoping for the best.

Jess wasn't disappointed. His hand went to his sarong and it fell away from his body although he was still holding it. His big, black cock was pointing skyward, making her smile. He smiled back, then went into the hut. Jess knew what would happen and, in a way, wished it was her in the hut. Her pussy was getting damp as she thought about it.

"You can dress if you wish. Stay close to me though. I don't think I'll be long. The chief was pleased and you played a big part in that. Thanks. There's just a few things I want to get straight, then we'll be leaving," Ron told her. Jess pulled on her shorts, but just picked up her shirt. Being topless excited her.

After a few minutes Jess sat down on the ground, mostly out of boredom. She watched the people of the village meandering around doing what she suspected was their normal thing. Naked children were playing, the men tending to what looked like hunting weapons, and the women and older girls building cooking fires. She smiled when she saw the chief's daughter in the middle of a group of village girls, all admiring her in her new panties.

Jess stayed topless. It made her feel adult being topless. If she had been at home she would have been scolded and told to cover up, but here she was free to do as she wished. It was exciting to have her breasts exposed to whoever wanted to look. She also thought it erotic.

"You ready to go?" Ron called out to her. Jess looked up and nodded. She stood, picking up her shirt, and put it on. The four, Ron, Albert, the translator, and Jess, headed back to their camp.
