For Argurious these couple of winter months were harder than the road. At first it was a good break from the constant traveling and sleeping outside, the possibility to buy food at teh market was welcoming as well. even one of the ladies from the brothel took him with her when she went to buy ingredients for food and when he could he would watch her cook and learn. Because in winter there is not a lot of work at the farms because its the time when life rests. Argurious spent some time a week working with a large family that had a mill and a carpentry workshop. Other days he spent at the town leathercrafter where he advanced his skill by learning how to make fur coats and other fine clothes that the high folk of the town wore.
Both Aiden and Argurious were scouted by private security companies. Aiden was old enough, yet Arguious was too young for most, but his size and physical strength offered him a simple job right beside Aiden. Both boys proved their skills and earned a solid job as private guardsman. Although they were always as an extra to the team, it did not bother them. Both got along with others and it offered a good pay, and a chance to sharpen their skills. Both helped at teh brothel anyway they could, but mostly it was with fixing things and helping teh security kick out problematic guests.
After the second month Argurious felt more and more trapped. All three of them had one room. For which he was thankful, but at the same time it offered him little alone time. This made him go into town for a stroll to be alone.
He didn't know if it was because of his orc lineage or something, but he could hardly contain his sexual impulses. He tried to hide it from the other two. At first he had little problem, but with time it got harder and harder to focus on anything if brisa was close by. One time he came home as he finished with carpentry work he came into the room and saw Brisa laying on bed reading a book. The room was warm, enough for her to wear thin clothing. As Argurious looked at her his eyes could only see the body lines under the clothes. A surge of energy rushed through his body. Not knowing what to do he turned and almost ran outside. He spent the next 2 hours chopping firewood to calm down himself.
The ladies at the brothel noticed Arguriouss problem and one took pity and offered him help. Argurious said yes, but once he saw what she meant by help he declined. Trying to make things easier for himself, he decided to work as much as possible and train teh rest of his free time. He didn't see anything wrong with that. It improved his physical fitness and money income. He spent little time in their new home and what little he did he mostly rested, being exhausted from overworking. At first it worked but soon his body adapted, the work and training did not exhaust him enough to for him to be brain dead. Thoughts about Brisa and desire for her company slowly started to fill his mind more and more often. Deciding to approach Aiden with his problem Argurious waited for the time when both of them would be in the brothels main room, so that no one could listen in on their conversation. Just as he was about to bring up his issue, a fight broke in teh room and both of teh boys rushed in to help.
After that Argurious did not try to approach Aiden again, instead he decided to accept the help from the lady that previously offered herself. Believing that, as an adult, she knew what to do and how to help. The first couple of times was weird for Argurious, but after awhile he was able to relax and enjoy the sessions. Although it did help with his impulses, he felt empty and lonely afterwards. He could focus on things again,yet if he would let his mind wander his thoughts would still drift to Brisa. Although teh solution was not perfect Argurious decided to stick with it till they hit teh road again. At which he believed things would go back to normal.
