After the Nightmare

Reader woke to a cool cloth pressing against his forehead. He opened his eyes to see the anxious face of his catgirl pet in her humanoid form - slightly more clothed than she had been, she was wearing a loincloth and a collar now, though her large breasts were still bouncing freely as she applied the washcloth to his face. Behind her he could see the elf receptionist still in her high-necked dress, looking on with a pained expression.

"Myaster, are you going to be all right?" the catfox pet asked in a small voice.

"I am so sorry that happened to you in our hotel sir!" the elf burst out as reader tried to nod. "That woman has a reputation, but I had always assumed it was the result of professional jealousy. Is there anything I can do personally to make it up to you?"

"There is actually," Reader managed, sitting up at the edge of the bed. "I could really use a fetch quest. are you familiar with the concept?"

The girl shook her head, while Reader's catfoxgirl familiar looked at him inquisitively.

"A simple errand", Reader explained. "I want you to ask me to bring something to a friend across town, and bring something back from her to you. Can you think of anything suitable?"

"I-I can..." the elfgirl began nervously. "B-but I'd like to know first - most things a woman would ask of a man in this situation would in some way be sexual. You've just, um, been taken advantage of. If I asked you to do something with a romantic overtone, would that...?"

Reader had to think about it as she trailed off. He looked at her in her conservative dress, her expression longing without being hopeful. He thought about the goddess's promise his sex life would be whatever he wanted, and the drought that had been his sex life last time around. And despite feeling unclean after the price he'd paid for the first member of his harem, the answer was obvious.

"Yes." he answered, "You're cute. And I can't let a setback like this become a new direction. I want to enjoy my sexuality. On my terms. But I'm open to suggestions".

The elf girl fidgeted. "Okay, well... When you said I should give you something to deliver to a friend across town... I'd like you to deliver a kiss".

The tips of her ears turned pink, as reader's heart melted a little. "Well then," he said, "You'd better give it to me.
