Claiming Rapunzel

As much as I really wanted an army of maids at my beck and call Body Runes just had too many benefits to ignore. Though thoughts of my prisoner almost made me take Aggressive Initiations instead...

Maybe next time I managed to rack up twenty credits, I bought Advanced Runes: Body. Which gained me a level of Body Defense and Athletic talent along with it. I immediately changed my race over to werewolf thanks to Ruby. The healing factor might come in handy. Then bringing up Rapunzel's profile on the app I started the process of reducing her hair to a manageable length. For the hell of it I decided to give her a much larger set of breasts as well. The mass had to go somewhere...

The more I spent on Tempest Jewelry the more I was really locking myself in. I really preferred Shroud as a capture method honestly, but then I tended to be a lot more aggressive on captures. Jewelry had a lot of utility though, I had to admit, and was a hell of a lot cheaper. Well that was a worry for a later world where I was earning a lot more credits than I was here.

Feeling a bit mischievous I upped Hilde's breast size a little too, just to see if she'd notice it. Cass also got the werewolf treatment. Sure she could heal by absorbing life ****, but that wouldn't help if she was **** and more healing never hurt for front-line troops.

This part of the forest was quiet and the rest of the trip was uneventful so that well before nightfall the tower was in sight.

Dismounting in the clearing around the tower, the maids began tethering the horses while the rest of us approached the tower itself. I was considering how to get the occupants' attention when Hilde just smacked the side of the tower with her staff, causing the structure to shudder. Well that worked, I guess.

Almost immediately a dark-haired woman leaned out of the window, looking panicked. Gothel did indeed look much better younger. "My Lord?"

"Greetings again Gothel, as you can see I've kept my word and your youth is restored. Now back up, we're spending the night." She cleared the window as fast as she appeared. I pointed to Ruby first. "Make sure things are secure." I told the dark-haired woman, who nodded before Hilde sent her flying towards the wide window.

Ruby managed to scramble inside nimbly enough and soon leaned out to give me a thumbs up. I had Hilde send me next, which was an interesting experience. I've flown before under my own power, but it's very different when you've no control.

The interior of the tower was nice and cozy yet fairly large at the same time. A neat feat of engineering, or maybe Rapunzel was just good at making the place feel homey. The blonde in question along with her captor was waiting for me, standing next to Ruby.

Rapunzel looked ecstatic to see me, or maybe just happy to meet anyone after years of being around only Gothel. Already her hair was much shorter than I remembered, though still stupidly long at this point. Well, she'd get there. She rushed forward to give me a hug. "My Prince! I love you!" Her already increased bust felt quite nice.

Behind her Gothel bowed, looking disgruntled. "So you kept your word, but said nothing about your gift having a hook attached. Well it's done and you own me as well, what can I do for you?"

As the enthusiastic blonde hugged me, crushing her new much larger breasts against me unselfconsciously, I looked Gothel over appraisingly. She very much looked like Cassandra had before her hair started glowing. More guarded and calculating though. "Firstly, the group will be spending the night in the tower, then in the morning we will be returning to the castle, with the two of you coming along. You'll need to help the maids get dinner ready and set up bedding before you pack whatever knick-knacks the two of you want to bring along. But before all that you have someone who very much wants to meet you."

I looked back at the window, and indeed there stood Cass glaring at the woman who could only be her mother. She stalked forward menacingly, but I was glad to see she seemed to be keeping her power firmly in check. Gothel looked at the angry woman in shock, recognizing her own features if not the woman herself. "Who?" was all she got out before Cassandra gave her a resounding slap that knocked the older woman off of her feet. Stunned, Cass looked at her hand then back at me.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you. I made you a werewolf. You'll find you're a bit stronger and faster now, plus amazingly good at healing without draining life. Oh and of course you can shift to a big ass wolf."

"Much better senses as well, Master." Ruby told us with a wink, telling me she had noticed Cassandra and my change. Probably by smell or something, I'd have to get used to that.

I looked down where Gothel lay still on the floor, holding a hand to her red cheek. "So a reunion. This is your daughter, you remember, the girl you abandoned when you kidnapped the Princess?" Cassandra growled at the prostrate woman, but still controlled herself. "She has agreed to let you live, but in return you will serve her. Consider yourself her maid, or whatever she requires. That's an order." Gothel was looking at me now in dawning horror. Rapunzel was also looking up at me curiously.

"I'm a Princess?"

I ruffled her hair, which gleamed under my touch. "Indeed. Gothel here kidnapped you when you were just a baby, leaving her own child behind. Not a very nice thing to do wouldn't you say?"

The Princess looked over at the woman she'd been gaslit into loving as a mother all these years. "But she's been very good to me, she loves me."

I shook my head. "Sorry no, she loves your power that kept her youngish. Now she's young for real, by my power. And she'll stay young and serving Cassandra for a very long time." The glowing-haired woman gave her mother a very evil grin then and the older woman bowed her head crying. "Now let's help get everyone else inside so I can make introductions."

I was curious how Hilde was going to join us but after she sent my fishy prisoner up for me to catch she just launched herself up with no problem. Handy that, I'd expected she'd need to stay grounded while using the staff. Cass sent Gothel over to help Snow and Ella get extra bedding set up since we wouldn't all fit in the two beds. She'd also apparently been told to ask for a maid outfit to change into as well, which showed that Cass had kept some of her humor in the situation. I was tempted to put Cassandra in charge of the maids since she had the maid tag herself. I'd definitely be putting her in charge of the Fighting Flowers when I got them.

Rapunzel wasn't stupid, she'd figured right off that her physical changes had to do with her now being owned by me and she looked great with much larger breasts. She was also very eager to serve or just to do something new. I spent the night introducing her to the wonders of sex in her bed, breaking in yet another virgin. Hilde begged to join us, complaining that Cassandra and Ruby were hogging the other bed with their lovemaking. I wasn't very hard to convince and really she did an excellent job showing a blushing Rapunzel just what I liked.

Gothel spent the night in the furs with Snow and Ella. I'm not sure how welcoming they were though.

In the morning the maids prepared breakfast under Cassandra's watchful eye and I took the opportunity to check on my captive. Ariel was down to only sixty hours now as her resistance continued to crumble. "Not long now and we'll have you to the Queen and you can be free of this curse."

"I'm not cursed. Please, I didn't create that storm. I was only trying to save the Prince. Please let me go." She was cried out and worn out, probably cramped and sore as well, but Body Tune-Up would take care of that soon enough.

I ruffled her hair and gave one of her breasts a fondle. "That's just the curse talking, but don't you worry, we'll get you fixed up." I slipped her gag back in place and went to get breakfast, chuckling to myself as I noted that little talk had eaten another ten hours from her timer.

She'd definitely be on board by the time we were ready for the **** to claim my next prize.
