The Crony

Ivy looked at herself in the mirror, her dark skin still a little flushed from her masturbation session in the toilet. Her phone still open with the picture of Rose Carpenter wearing a short skirt and grinning, the picture taken before she’d transferred to Ivy’s school and Josephine’s reign of terror had started. An alert popped up on her phone, it was a text from Josephine showing a picture of Rose’s locker with a crude drawing on it.

Ivy didn’t even bother reading the words, feeling some amount of guilt eating away at her. It hadn’t been hard to open Rose’s locker and fill it with shaving foam and the hair that Josephine had given her. Seeing the pictures and posters Rose had taped to the inside had made Ivy’s heart sink. But she’d still done it, regret filling her. A few minutes passed and Ivy kept her eyes closed, trying not to think about what Rose was going through right then, just another humiliation Josephine was heaping on the poor trans girl. A sudden wave of dizziness washed over Ivy and she blinked rapidly, starting to run the water to splash her face but before she could, she was suddenly standing on the plush carpet of a ski resort, several other figures she recognised around her and a pair she didn’t.

Ivy’s cheeks flushed scarlet as she saw Rose curled up on one of the chairs on the end, dressed in a skirt and blouse that showed off her bare pale shoulders. Before Ivy had a chance to take in anyone else, the silver haired woman who was standing in the middle of the room started speaking and the black girl felt compelled to listen.

“Greeting, I’m Aurora and I’m the host for the game show Harem Hotel: Served Cold. You are one of the contestants who will be trying to win the favour and affection of the season Mistress Rose Carpenter. Please introduce yourself.”

Ivy took a moment to sweep her eyes back and forth, spotting Josephine dressed in lingerie for some reason as well as Miss Hawkins and another girl she didn’t know. She opened her mouth and stammered for a few moments before she felt a series of questions pop into her head.

“Hi…I’m Ivy Jones and I’m nineteen years old. I hang around with Josephine at school as one of her group of popular girls…I have…my feelings towards Ros….mistress Rose are complex. I like music and try to keep in shape where I can and am quite an artist. Last time I had sex was when Josephine made me fuck her boyfriend because she didn’t want to deal with pleasing him last week.”

Ivy looked a little shamefaced, seeing Josephine glaring at her for saying that on what was understood to be live television viewed by an unknown audience. She felt her legs walking her by herself, her face shocked for a moment before she sat sat down by Aurora’s magic just on the other side of Delilah.

Aurora brought up her hands for the next summoning, looking out at the audience.

“Complicated feelings you say Ivy? I’m sure over your time at the Harem Hotel you’ll be able to explore all kinds of feelings.”

Observing Rose out of the corner of her eye, Aurora could see the seasons Mistress looking with distaste at Ivy. Not the same outright hatred reserved for Josephine and Olivia but certainly there were no positive feelings there for the other girl.
