Mother - Daughter Bonding Time

"What about this?" Aphrodite asked, holding a skimpy piece of cloth that barely constitutes as a bikini. "Good? Or will it make me look fat?"

Piper rolled her eyes. "You know that you literally can't appear as fat unless you want to right?"

"Right," Aphrodite said, giving that laugh that drove men mad with lust and women mad with jealousy.

Piper glanced around, wondering if anyone heard, before realizing that no one could. They were in one of the largest and most expensive malls in the world, a huge monster of a building filled with silver and glass and rooms where you can buy anything you can think of, though, as always, her mother limited herself to the clothes section. Aphrodite always took her for these supposed 'shopping sprees' whenever she wants something from her daughter, and based on what happened last night she can probably guess what her mother wants now. Piper's only comfort is that she at least doesn't have to interact with the hundreds of people milling about, as Aphrodite wrapped them in the Mist to get some privacy.

"Maybe I should try it on, just to be safe," Aphrodite mused. Then, with a snap of her fingers, the goddess was wearing the bikini.

"Mom!" Piper protested, pretending to be embarrassed like she would have been before her master liberated her, and turning away. But she was not the old Piper, and she turned around to a large glass pane that clearly reflected what was going on in that floor, including the goddess of love in a bikini. And while she was preoccupied with her newest fancy, Piper subtly checked out her mom through the reflection.

As always, Aphrodite looked... indescribably beautiful, and her wearing the bikini just made the bikini look good instead of the other way around. Looking at her nearly nude mother through the glass, Piper felt her breathing speed up and blood rushing to her face (and thanked her light brown skin not showing it). It's normal to feel this way when you are around the goddess of beauty, whether you were a man or a woman with the slightest interest in other women, even if it was her daughters. The old Piper had of course vehemently denied such feelings, blaming it all on simple jealousy of her mother, but now her great master had freed her from useless, silly little feelings, allowing her to check out her mother shamelessly and fantasizing about the day when she can do it in the open.

"Well? Turn around and tell me what you think!" Aphrodite said in her sing song voice.

"You look fine, Mom!" Piper said, turning and pretending to be exasperated.

"Fine isn't good enough dear. A lady should always strive to look her best." the goddess replied while snapping her fingers, which made her go back to the clothes she was wearing; an incredibly short mini skirt and a tank top. "Come, let's look some more," she continued, sliding an arm through Piper's and dragging her away. If the Mist was down and people could see them, they would assume it was just two rich gal pals hanging at the mall.

"So," Aphrodite began slyly. "How are things going with Jason?"

And there it was. The trap, the whole damn reason for this trip. Master had briefed on what happened last night, on what her mother currently knows and gave her different several paths to take in this inevitable chat. For now, Piper decided to play dumb. "It's going fine."

"Oh that's wonderful to hear," her mother said in a fake, cheerful voice. "I was a bit worried about you two because of all that time you spend with that Camp Director."

"You know?" Piper asked, pretending to be startled. Well she didn't have to pretend that much at all. This is the first time a person who is not under her master's control knows about her... situation, and some small part of old Piper is still worried about the scrutiny she would face.

"Oh you don't have to look so startled dear," Aphrodite said, patting her daughter's cheek affectionately. "But it is a bit funny now thinking about all the times you judged me for being a slut."

"I'm not a slut!" Piper shouted, glad that the Mist was making a little bubble that separated her from her mother.

Her mother raised an eyebrow. "Sweetie, you are cheating on your loving boyfriend by fucking one of your closest friend's boyfriend."

"It's not cheating! All of them know it!" Piper burst out, before quickly clamping a hand down on her own mouth. Everything she's saying now were practiced earlier with her master and her fellow ****-sisters, but what she was feeling now was real enough.

Aphrodite giggled. "All of them know, huh? Well I don't know if that makes it better or makes you an even bigger slut."

Piper felt colour rising in her face again and decided to say nothing.

The goddess sighed. "Ah well, I knew this day would be coming."

"You... knew?"

"Of course. My daughters have a libido almost as much as me, and with those charm speak powers of yours, I assumed sooner or later you would start using it to fuck more and more guys."

This time it was Piper's turn to laugh. "Well, your assumptions are wrong. The only guy I... be with is M- Raj, and it was only done by his initiation."

This time, it looked like Aphrodite was genuinely surprised. It seemed after her master rejected her yesterday, Aphrodite must have thought the only way a guy could resist her was if he was under some magical control. The amount of ego her mother possesses never cease to amaze Piper.

"Well that is surprising. Would you mind telling me dear, with all the men in the world, why did you choose your Camp Director to have sex with? Is he blackmailing you? After all, I can't imagine sex with him being all too pleasant, that ugly, beastly thing sweating and puffing all over you."

For a second, all Piper could see was red. Her fingers curled into a fist. The fantasies of making gentle, erotic love with her own mother vanished, to be replaced by an image where she was roughly **** her mother's ass as she pleaded mercy. In a rational part of her brain Piper knew that she was getting provoked on purpose by Aphrodite to get something out of her, but she wasn't able to hold herself back. "Actually, it was the best sex I ever had," Piper said gloatingly. "Not that you would know anything about it."

Aphrodite spun around, grabbing her daughter's fist and looking at her with wide eyes.

"Yes," Piper said, smiling cruelly. "I know what happened last night."

"He told you?"

"My master tells me everything." Piper said boastfully. It was only after a few seconds passed that she realized what exactly she had said. Piper silently cursed herself. She wanted to defend her master, but it ended up with her betraying the plans they had carefully constructed, revealing crucial important to her mother way before she needed to know them.

"Your master huh?" Aphrodite said quietly, before giving a silly little giggle. "Well that explains a lot."

Piper shrugged uncomfortably, pretending not to be bothered. "Now you know." There was nothing to hide now. The best she could do was make stuff up that would hopefully lead to the end goal.

"So Raj is your master," Aphrodite said, resuming her walk with her daughter at her arm. "That does* explain a lot. So now I know what he wants. He's into some submission stuff."

"It's more than that," Piper said stiffly. She knew her mother hasn't been initiated yet, but it still annoyed her when her and her sister slaves' sacred duties were discussed as if it was a game.

"Oh? What is it then?"

"He wants... eternal obedience. Devotion. If you want to fuck him, you can't be with any other man."

Aphrodite made a face. "Well that sounds dreadfully boring."

"On the contrary, it would finally bring you real happiness."

Aphrodite looked at her for a second, before beginning to laugh loudly. "Oh you do crack me up dear."

Piper looked at her laughing mother despairingly. The plan failed because of her stupidity, she had failed in her attempt to convince her mother who was now openly laughing at her. Plans were useless now. But she had something better... faith. "Mom!" Piper said, gripping her mother's arms tightly. "I know that we have never really seen eye to eye. But I really do want you happy. Give in to him! Join me! Can't you see what Raj is? Can't you see how happy he would be under him?"

With every word she said, Piper's eyes shined brighter and brighter, her voice tinged with the absolute conviction a true fanatic would have. But her mother still couldn't see. In fact, she seemed alarmed by her daughter's outburst. She gently removed Piper's hands and was about to say something when Aphrodite's own eyes widened and the consoling words she had for her daughter turned into a strangled croak in her mouth.

Piper saw her mother's expression and turned backwards, and what she saw made her legs weak with relief. There was Raj, with his small annoying smirk, seeing right through the Mist and walking towards them confidently. Piper was so relieved she had to stifle a sob. She had messed up because of her own inferiority, but what does that matter, when she had her master, her god, to save her?

Author's note- a little bit of a slow chapter in between all the chaos, to show what's going on and to take a closer look at the mental state of some of Raj's earliest slaves. I hope you enjoyed this and of course any sort of comment is appreciated.
