Junket-Milk

Stella had kept Caleb running for a good fifteen minutes before he recognized that the market looped into a large circle. Being unfamiliar with the terrain it had taken him longer than it might have otherwise to notice the repeating fabric patterns covering the stalls. Heck, if it hadn’t been for one particular Faun wearing a fez waving at him with each pass he may not have noticed at all.

With Stella’s magically enhanced physique, she was able to keep pace with him, so he hadn’t gained any ground all while she kept turning and smiling cockily at him. The next time she turned to look though, he was nowhere to be seen causing her to pause and look to the closest faun.

“Guess he gave up? Thought I could keep it going for a while lon-” She was cut off by being lunged at from behind and tackled to the ground. When she regained herself she looked up to see Caleb who had circled the other way, straddling her and holding her arms down. After coughing for a moment and regaining some composure she locked eyes with Caleb and smirked, “Oh man, tackling women to the ground, so forceful, you gonna manhandle me next? Not that I’d mind” She rolled her hips upward against him.

Caleb was barely distracted as he stared angrily down at Stella’s form, “What’s the big idea Stella?! What was the point of it all? Stealing from Maddy? Forcing me to chase you? What did you have to gain from all this?”

Underneath his grip Stella sighed as her chest began to deflate and her skin returned to its natural pale colour, “Guess that means its time…

“Cut the crap Stella what do you mean?” He watched Stella change, only her muscles remained intact at this point.

Rolling her eyes Stella pointedly looked to her pocket, “If you want to know, just let me up, I promise not to run.”

Looking at her warily, Caleb pulled back off her allowing Stella to brush herself off and reach into her pocket pulling out a paper that was beginning to disintegrate in her hands.

Bounty Night on the Town: Convince Master to go outside. 4 VP bonus! 5 BP if he stays out longer than an hour.

COMPLETE

Stella 20 BP + 5 BP: 25 BP remaining

Calebs expression was blank as he stared down at the Bartender, though there was a distinct edge to his tone when he opened his mouth, “So you did all this for…points? Stealing? Making me have a panic attack? Wait why even bother eating the treats then if they were bait?”

Stella tossed the remnants of the bounty sheet out of her hand, “I mean I did it because I saw an opportunity for some fun, the points were kind of a fringe benefit. As for eating the treats, The first was bait to get you invested, the second was to have an hour timer so I’d know I could collect on the bounty, the third was for fun though it will probably be wearing off soon…”

Her explanation only baffled Caleb more, “So what was your plan if I couldn’t chase you? I felt like my heart was going to explode, my chest still hurts god damn it!”

“Well, if it was that bad you didn’t need to follow me. Besides if I thought you were in trouble it’s not like you were in any real danger right? Worst case scenario you pass out, I have the fauns help carry you back in and I just get the VP for getting you to go outside.” Stella shrugged.

Caleb threw his arm out as he stared Stella down as her muscles began to fade away, “What about Maddy huh? Those treats belonged to her, they weren’t yours to use!

Stella just gave another noncommittal shrug, “I honestly don’t get why you’re so upset. It’s not like she was going to use them, and I didn’t **** anyone with them. If anything I did everyone a favor by taking them off the board for the rest of the round.”

Clenching his fists the Master took a step forward, “That wasn’t your choice to make though, you stole them!”

“Why is that such a big deal anyway Caleb? It’s not like I hurt anyone. Besides wasn’t it sexy to see me running around with those big tits? A preview of whats to come right?” She grinned impishly grabbing at her meager chest and pushing it together.

Caleb paused, taking a step back, “What do you mean?”

“Oh come on Caleb don’t be dense!” Stella threw up her arms and then gestured around her, “This whole thing is about getting us nice and sexy for you so you’ll want to bang us vigorously and frequently. I’m just showing the audience what that would look like on my terms. I told you before, there’s not point in fretting or freaking out about what’s going to happen. We can’t control it, but I can at least get something out of it.”

Caleb stared at her in disbelief and reached up and ran a hand through his hair as he tried to collect his thoughts before responding, “Did it never occur to you Stella that maybe I want more than big breasts to be interested in someone? That maybe this show isn’t giving me what I want? Maybe I want to actually connect with you!”

At that it was Stella’s turn to stare before busting out laughing, Caleb felt his face screw up in anger before calling ut, “What? What’s so funny?”

Still laughing Stella clutched her stomach and wiped a tear from her eye, “Caleb it doesn’t fucking matter what you want! Besides the whole white knight bit is a bit overblown. Acting like you wouldn’t fuck a hot piece of ass willfully offering itself up to you.”

Caleb clenched his fist as his mind flashed to Eliza the previous night, laying on the bed on full display, he grit his teeth together, “Don’t joke about that, I wouldn’t do something like that to any of you.”

Stella snickered and held a finger to her lips, “Hmm maybe not now, but Caleb this is so early in the show. How long are you gonna be able to hold back hmmm? Only a matter a time before you start seeing us as the flesh toys the show wants you to see us as.”

Before Caleb could stop himself he found himself reaching out and grabbing Stella by the arms and holding her steady, “I said that’s enough!”

Stella paused and then looked up at him through half lidded eyes, “Oooh careful Caleb, you’re being awful forceful right now…I couldn’t do anything to stop you right now, so big…so” She leaned in towards his ear “Strong”

Gasping Caleb let go and shoved Stella away from him, “In all of this…did you even think about how this might impact other people? Do you care how freaked out Maddy was? About how much this would hurt me to come after you?

Stella raised an eyebrow, “Caleb I’m not some heartless monster, of course, I knew this would bother people, I just don’t think it’s that big a deal in the grand scheme of things and they’ll get over it. We all got to go with the flow here. Like honestly? If this much bothers them, I don’t think they’re gonna make it to the end.”

“Take it back.” The words were out before Caleb could stop himself, “Maddy deserves better than to be mocked like that.”

“ooh Caleb taking sides in your Harem isn’t going to end up being a good look,” Stella shivered as she began to skip away, “I’m getting bored though, so a change of scenery? I need to buy something while I’m out. You’ve never been to the Sabotage Shop, right?”

Caleb winced, not wanting to fall into the bartender’s tempo but worried about her going off on her own, he followed, “No I haven’t been outside before so obviously…”

Not looking back, Stella smiled and called out, “Oh right. Well, I think you’ll like the vibe, very old-timey and Arietta is nice. I think you’ll like her.”

Caleb couldn’t be too sure how much he could like anyone running the Sabotage Shop, but followed Stella to a ramshackle building in an alcove off the ways from the main market and followed her inside. After checking the main desk Stella looked around and then called out in a sing-song tone, “Arietta! I brought a friend with me.”

Following her further into the building Caleb jumped as between the shelves was a woman clothed in long layered white robes with blood-red trim. Despite the copious amount of fabric, none concealed her copious bosom held up by her bodice. She was wiping her eyes and yawning as the two approached.

When she spoke it was with a heavy vocal fry that caused Caleb’s ears to tingle, “So, the Master has found his way to my little shop. Nothing for you here dearie, I’m afraid these prizes are for contestants only. Though you may feel free to browse.”

Stella smirked at Caleb’s dumbstruck face, “Yeah she’s hot right? Shame you can’t have her in your harem.”

Caleb closed his gaping mouth and ignored Stella’s provocations, “I wasn’t aware there was anyone here besides Fauns. Sorry, I didn’t introduce myself.”

Arietta rose, picking up a fennel branch from the ground and walked seamlessly across the room past Caleb, “No introductions necessary, I know full well who you are Master, and your purpose here.”

“That makes one of us then, I have no idea why I’m here.” Caleb sighed and leaned against the shelves as he watched Stella browse, “Really after all this today you’re gonna buy one of these things?”

“Never hurts to be prepared, plus I have some money to burn courtesy of you.” Stella smiled without looking away from the shelves.

Caleb watched Arietta move behind the desk and sit down and then asked, “Can you tell me anything about the people who kidnapped us? About Lucian?”

This was met with a wry grin from Arietta, “Well which is it you want to know about? The ones who kidnapped you or Lucian?”

“I was under the impression they were one and the same,” the actor balked.

Arietta raised a finger and wagged it slowly at the Master, “Things are never so simple, Lucian is but a small player in a game that’s been turning since thought began. The ones who kidnapped you play on a scale unfathomable to you but their interests are so human to be detestable. There is nothing more sought after than entertainment and that is what you are to provide and when your game is done they’ll seek the next hit like any sort of junkie. Never satisfied, infinities at their disposal but never enough.”

“You make them sound like something from H.P. Lovecraft,” Caleb murmured as he regarded the saleswoman.

“Who?” Arietta’s expression became curious and Caleb froze, not expecting that response

“Um, he’s an author from my world,” Caleb said lamely.

Arietta nodded, “Then he must be from beyond my time.”

“Your time? Wait are you from Ear-” Caleb is cut off by a dinging sound as Stella completes her purchase.

Stella 25 BP - 3 BP: 22 BP remaining

From the sidelines, Stella pockets the new silver card and skips over to Caleb, “All done here, ready to go?”

“Actually, I still had more questions-” He is interrupted by Arietta raising a hand and shaking her head.

“It would not do for me to take up any more of your precious time on your date. Enjoy yourselves,” With that the robed women practically shoved the two out of the apothecary leaving them in the hot afternoon sun.

Stella turned to him, “As much as I would love to continue the date in the traditional sense, I think some time apart would do us good. Seeing as you are so bent out of shape by this scheme. So how about this, let's just meet up at the appointed time in your room later? You can figure out what you want to do with me then.”

Caleb frowned, but couldn’t disagree with her logic, he needed some time to wrap his head around any of this, “You better apologize to Maddy though.”

Stella started to skip off, “Sure sure, if I see her”

Watching as she went off, Caleb was left with his thoughts and the realization that he would have to find his way back to the hotel by himself.

When Caleb made it back, the moment he had gotten back inside it was like the world became lighter. He hadn’t fully recognized the difficulty he had been having breathing until it became easy to breathe again. Since then he had mostly been left alone thinking about what Stella had done.

True to her word, she had kept her distance, even when dinner time rolled around she was nowhere to be seen and Caleb returned to his room alone. He couldn’t wrap his head around Stella as a whole. Her disregard for everything rational, in pursuit of what? Appealing to the audience? Points? Fun? The thought process was so alien and eccentric.

He recalled the afternoons he spent in that dusty bookshop seeing this well-dressed woman in the corner of the shop, reading away with a contemplative expression on her face. So far and removed was that person from the Stella he had grown to know. He couldn’t help but admire her audacity and capability to act. But it was almost like she lacked a sense of decorum or what others might consider decency.

Was she attractive? Yes extremely, in an unhinged gremlin sort of way. But it was hard for Caleb to look past everything she was doing. What she had done to him and Maddy. If this was how she was now, how would she get in the future?

Intervening his thoughts came a sharp rapping at the door. Caleb turned to the clock, it was almost nine so it only made sense that she would be here soon. He crossed the room from his bed and opened the door and found his mouth drop open at what he saw. In front of him smiling like a cat with a mouse it caught was Stella, dressed only in a sheer black nightgown. Taking advantage of his shock, she pushed him back on the bed and climbed on top, practically drooling.

“Stella wait! What are you doing?” Caleb called out as the bartender topped him over and stared down at him with intense ferocity.

“I fibbed a little Caleb,” The redhead said as her fingers gripped his shirt tightly, “There was another reason I did all that today…to get you…to give me so many orders.” She began to lightly grind against him over his pants causing the voice actor to look down and see how covered her thighs were in moisture trailing from her exposed nether region.

Caleb felt like a moron for forgetting, her transformation which made her get more aroused the more she disobeyed, “Why would you do that? Have you been dealing with that all day?”

She shuddered, “Oh god yes, fuck.” She began to pull at his shirt causing his button to come flying off.

Caleb felt himself grow hard in his pants seeing the desperation on her face, “Why? Hasn’t it been unbearable?”

“Oh god Caleb, you have no idea, When you told me to take back what I said about Maddy I nearly came right there but I held it together. Just for…this” She leaned forward and licked up Caleb’s neck.

Fighting his ramping arousal Caleb grabbed her by her shoulders and pushed her away, “You think after everything you put me through? Everything you did? Do you think I’d want to have sex with you after that?”

“Cmon Caleb…don’t pretend…I can feel how hard you are.” Her rolling of her hips became more insistent like she was trying to impale herself through his Jeans.

A surge of anger rose up in Caleb, and she felt she could mistreat him all day and still manipulate him into fucking her. He sat up and grabbed her, bending her over his lap, his strong frame dwarfing hers as he raised his hand and brought it down on her bare ass, “You conniving bitch!”

“Fuck!” A strangled cry and moan echoed from her lips as her back arched against his touch, “Caleb what are you doing?”

“You did all that today intentionally trying to drive us up a wall, you’ve been bad and that doesn’t deserve a reward it deserves to be punished.” He brought his hand down again and felt her moisture coat the tip of his fingers.

“Oh god y-yes I’ve been s-s-so bad,” Her eyes were welling with tears even as she cried out in pleasure, her words broken up and stuttering through her moans as Caleb brought his hand down on her again.

“You behave like a brat you get punished, I’m not going to fuck anyone who behaves like that! Who treats people like that!” He spanked her ass again, it was beginning to turn a shining pink.

“Oh g-g-god y-y-yes, I’ll be good, I-I-’ll b-e-e good” She let out, “P-Please, M-Master I’m so close”

Caleb narrowed his eyes, “Fucking hell, I’m trying to punish you and it does no good because you’re enjoying it.” He brought his hand down again.

“I’m s-s-sorry Master,” She gasped and her pussy quivered again on impact she could feel the edge building up, “S-sorry I’m s-s-such a s-s-slut”

Caleb shook his head, “You better behave from now on Stella, I swear…” He raised his hand and in quick succession slapped her ass three times leaving it a bright ruby red

“Oh god! Master! I’m-” Stella’s eyes rolled back in her head as she felt the build up over the course of the day come crashing down on her. The intensity being so much that it left her passed out awkwardly in Caleb’s lap

Stella- Brought to Orgasm by Master (Spanking) - + 2 VP FIRST x2 BONUS

Backstage Lucian glanced up front his desk on the monitor and sighed. What did these women need to do to get this shlub to actually fuck them? He wasn’t a goddamn monk, Jesus of Nazareth. Did the years isolated break his dick? They were already halfway through round one and the most he had done now was masturbate. He didn’t need a harem to do that.

He growled and looked down at the stack of paperwork as the door to the room swung open and Reyna jovially skipped in, “Lucy! Halfway through the week, we’re getting some awesome feedback I thought I should share with you~”

Lucian leaned back in his chair and covered his face with his hand, “Reyna, I’m trying to finish the requests for the resources needed for the challenge, can this wait?”

Continuing unbidden, Reyna pulled up a screen, “This viewer says “Diversity Win! This Host is an Incel! How progressive!”

Lucian felt his temperature rising but tried to remain calm as he clenched his fists, “Reyna-”

“Oh come on Lucy, most people don’t even worry about that stuff, this Viewer says “Wow Lucian really fucked up here, de-milfed the milf AND didn’t give Stella big tits when she asked for them. Where did they get this guy?””

Lucian stood up, “Reyna…if you’ve just come to berate me you can can it”

Reyna held up a finger, “Oh not just berate you, see this viewer says “Can Caleb stop getting in his own way? How many women is he going to turn down at this rate?””

Drumming his fingers against the desk Lucian nodded, “Yeah something needs to be done, didn’t account for him to get in his own way this much.”

Reyna continued ignoring Lucian’s remark, “”All these girls are spoilsports, everyone is complaining about Maya when she’s the only one trying in the situation they’re in instead of ignoring it.””

The demon walked towards Reyna, “Give it time, human nature will reveal itself in the end.”

Reyna tittered away scrolling down the screen, “Oh here’s an interesting one, “Lucian is the cross between Holden Caulfield and a Cat, it’s great to watch.”

This one only baffled Lucian who raised an eyebrow, “Who is Holden Caulfield?”

Reyna smirked, “It's devastatingly accurate, that’s all you need to know boyo, oh “Host is obviously a Ven*tian, given everything he says is full of shit. Still bitter about the Fourth Crusade”

Lucian’s eye twitched, “Let’s get one thing straight, I didn’t pick this island. I’ve never been to Venice and I predate the Crusades and I promise you I have no love for the church.” the words came out like venom.

Reyna shrugged, “Here’s another…”Can I get a Dave’s Single with baconator fries and a frosty?” hmm, that one seems misdirected, will need to see if we can forward it on”

Pinching the bridge of his nose Lucian wiped the screen from view, “Reyna is there anything actually pertinent you need to tell me?”

Thinking for a moment, the short-stacked assistant reached into her hat a pulled out a black envelope, “This arrived for you”

Lucian took the envelope in his hands and flipped it open his eyes widening seeing the red wax seal with a complex pattern on it bearing an S and four Is. He quickly opened it and read it to himself.

“Luciano,
Finally had time in my day to sit down and watch this drivel they got you up to. Not my thing by any means but Lucian, I’m disappointed. Where is the boy I trained? The fire and vigor? Were you always one to bend to pressure when the heat was on? If you’re going to do this show, you should do it right. Your way. I need you to succeed and come back. Afterall, your soul isn’t yours to lose.
Watching until your Return,
Andrea Malcolm

Closing the envelope, Lucian gently put it in his pocket. Perhaps he had been too gentle up to this point. Hopefully, this challenge would show his mentor he was in this for the long haul. And maybe…just maybe he could show these contestants a little hell.
