Pokemon: Bounty Hunter Alex

It had been nearly a decade since Alex programmed love triggers into his mind, and so far his strongest opinion of them was that they were a distraction. Not in a bad way, since he didn’t have anything important going on beyond training and combat, but in a good way, since the girls kept him grounded and stopped him from running around making enemies left, right, and center. As long as he stayed at the base, he could easily see himself never needing to train or fight again, with the girls by his side providing all the distraction he needed.

It was a stark contrast to life before he had love triggers. Back then, even with a harem keeping him company, it never felt enough. He still had to go out, hunt criminals, and train hard when he returned. Now, he was far more relaxed, doing only the minimum amount of training needed to maintain his physique while spending the rest of his days with the girls. Given their numbers, he wasn't even being a bother. After all, they couldn't all be busy at the exact same time.

This even extended to the types of triggers the girls had on him. With Rhea, Lyra, Mika, Sable, and Maris, the trigger was simply the expectation of sex. It didn't even have to involve actual fucking. Just knowing that their interaction would eventually lead to sex was enough to activate it. It was a broad trigger that covered almost every form of intimacy between them.

The other girls were a bit more abstract, as their version of love was detached from just passionate sex. Vera, for instance, loved staring Alex in the eyes whenever she had the chance, microdosing him on oxytocin, keeping his need for combat quelled. Kaia’s was holding hands, which was used to tour their hydroponic farm, berry orchard, and the forest, becoming their monthly routine. Iris’s was hugs, just hugs, usually spent overlooking beautiful scenery, with their favorite place being the balcony on the top floor of the main hub.

Then there was the wildest of them, Nyx, whose trigger only activated when Alex was in her ass. That didn’t stop her from using it, though, as she would usually give her reports with Alex deep inside, wiggling her butt as she reported the successes and failures of the bounty hunters across Kanto.

Needless to say, picking the trigger to activate Alex’s love for the new girls was an important decision, as it would define their interactions moving forward. Then again, given that these women had already been interacting with Alex for years, they already knew what trigger they wanted to capitalize on to maximize their relationships.

“I want sex,” Lina said. “I don’t need you trying to hump me while I cook. Although that would be fun to try.”

Everyone in the living area of the airship chuckled before turning to the other girls.

“I want sex as well,” Celise said. “I’d like to keep my professional side separate from the intimate side, as we’ve been doing since I was hired.”

“You’re going to miss out on a lot of fun,” Nyx commented.

“I can always give Alex a lap dance when I give my report, upon request,” she said, her cheeks red, clearly open to the idea.

“Sex for me too,” Talia said. “I don’t need you humping me while I’m treating a patient either.”

“I’m pretty sure the sexual atmosphere would make for a good anesthetic,” Rhea pointed out. “I’d probably give you permission to open me up so long as you’re getting pounded from behind.”

Nyx chuckled, but the rest were too disgusted by the image in their minds to comment.

“I want sex as well,” Clarissa said. “I’m busy enough as it is with training to do anything romantic. I want us fucking like Buneary when I have free time.”

Everyone then turned to a blushing, fidgeting Mira, already knowing which trigger she would prefer.

“I want it to be when I touch you,” Mira said shyly under the attention. “I want my massages to feel even better.”

Having received everyone’s response, Alex turned to Gardevoir and commanded, “Go for it, Gardevoir.”

“Gar,” she said with a nod before placing her hands around Alex’s head.

She dove into his mind, identified the core experience with Mesprit, and was shocked to discover it had expanded. Rather than a single core memory, there were now bundles of other forms of love attached to it, making the core memory stronger and far more diverse than before. It seemed that having these love triggers in Alex’s mind had allowed him to form reinforcing connections. Perhaps a day would come when he wouldn’t need psychic implants any longer.

This was both a good and bad thing. On one hand, it meant Alex could eventually experience genuine love without her intervention. On the other, it also meant he would become deeply attached to each of these girls to the point that he wouldn’t be able to live without any one of them.

Deciding to shelve this matter for now, Gardevoir continued with the procedure. She gathered memories of Lina, Mira, Celise, Talia, and Clarissa, isolated their respective triggers, and linked them to the core love memory. From this point onward, Alex would experience love whenever those triggers were experienced.

“Gar… Gardevoir,” she explained.

“What is it, Alex?” Vera asked with concern.

“It seems Gardevoir has confirmed that this will eventually become permanent,” Alex replied, unbothered. “She has seen signs of my mind making its own connections. Soon, even if I flood my brain with Dark type energy and remove all of her psychic influence, I would still be hopelessly in love with you girls.”

Everyone immediately fell silent as guilt ran through their minds. It was one thing if this was just a fun addition to their daily lives, but actually permanently affecting Alex made them second-guess themselves. Suddenly, playing around with his memories had serious repercussions. It felt like this had become a life-altering decision that they had taken lightly.

For most of the girls, the concern was quickly set aside as conviction filled them. They had already surrendered themselves to Alex, so this didn’t feel like an issue upon second thought. They could, without doubt, continue as they had been doing, with no foreseeable problems in the future.

Vera, Nyx, and Rhea were at the top of this list, given that each relied heavily on Alex. Vera was a traditional woman whose love had been overbearing from the start. Nyx was a recluse who had found her perfect man, while Rhea was locked in similarly to Alex. After all, she shared his condition.

Some, however, had doubts, questioning their loyalty to Alex and the others. Celise and Maris had always considered their relationship with Alex to be transactional first, with a bit of sexual relief on the side. Upon further consideration, however, they quickly folded. Alex could easily fulfill their ambitions through financial and military support. They had no reason to choose one over the other when they clearly had both.

Then there was Sable, who often spent long periods mining at random locations, only seeing him and the girls a few times a month, if that. Clarissa had the same issue, given her goal of becoming the Champion of either Kanto or Johto, which kept her busy and unavailable.

Then there were Lyra and Mika, who still had grand visions of adventure in their future. They were afraid of being tempted to cheat on Alex if they embarked on another journey.

“What’s wrong?” Alex asked, noting the changes in expression on the girls, focusing on Sable, Clarissa, Lyra, and Mika, whose faces remained concerned.

“It doesn’t seem fair that we’re in the same boat as the other girls while simultaneously being absent most of the time,” Sable said. “I don’t want to choose between my passion and you, Alex, and your condition is making me feel like I have to.”

“I’m the same,” Clarissa added. “I’ve decided for the longest time that I would become the Champion of the region. Nothing, not even you, can dissuade me at this point. Seeing how busy my parents are because of it, I’m afraid I might not hold up my end like the others.”

“I don’t see a problem here,” Alex said, shrugging. “We have all the time in the world to keep our relationships interesting, so even if we only see each other a few times a month or a year, as long as we still see each other again, I don’t see the problem. Also, nothing is stopping me from coming to see you at your request. All you have to do is ask, and I’ll be there in your weakest moments. With Gardevoir around, space isn’t an issue.”

Sable and Clarissa smiled at Alex’s reply. It comforted them to know they had his full support and the option to ask for his affection at any time. It especially felt good to know that Alex would never force them to choose between their passions and him.

Alex then turned to Lyra and Mika, whose history with him allowed him to guess what was on their minds.

“You’re both worried you’d want to go back to having orgies with strangers again?” Alex asked with a smile. “I know you’ve both been thinking about going out on a journey once the kids are old enough, and you’re probably afraid of getting back into old habits.”

The pair remained silent, with guilty looks on their faces, which confirmed Alex’s suspicion.

“That doesn’t sound like anything either of you have to ever worry about,” Alex said with confidence, confusing the pair. “After all, if you look at any man with lust, I would have failed my duties as your man and husband. It would basically mean I haven’t been fucking you both hard enough. So, to make sure you both never have to worry about it, I just have to keep you thoroughly satisfied once you decide to leave on your journeys.”

Both girls blushed, imagining Alex fucking them out in the wilds, in public, just to satisfy them. They briefly pictured their previous journey, replacing every orgy with Alex’s relentless fucking, and realized it was a far better image.

Lyra in particular rubbed her thighs together in anticipation of the day Alex would fuck her in the wild like an animal again. It had been a long time since she’d felt that pleasure.

“Now!” Alex said, clapping his hands and grabbing everyone’s attention. “I have new triggers to test out, so Lina, Mira, Celise, Talia, Clarissa, why don’t you girls join me upstairs to see the changes for yourselves.”

Alex made his way upstairs to his room with the five girls eagerly following along. Whatever came next promised to be an exciting new experience for them.
