A Mad Morning

Mary slowly regained consciousness. She felt content and warm. Aubrey was holding onto her. What is this strange feeling around my body? Mary went to feel whatever was covering her and found she couldn’t move her arms, between Aubrey’s arm holding her close, and whatever was around her prevented her from moving. Mary started to get a little anxious and squirmed. When she glimpsed the issue under the covers, she relaxed slightly. Okay, so Aubrey just has me wrapped up in her hair. It’s fine, I just need to think of it like she’s holding me with an extra arm, and not keeping me bound in rope. Mary took a few deep breaths.

“Hey, Aubrey?” Mary said, trying to wake Aubrey up. “Aubrey… AUBREY, WAKE UP!”

Aubrey woke with a start, sitting up partially. “Baaa!?” Aubrey looked around in confusion. While her arm wasn’t around Mary, her hair still was.

“Aubrey, could you please let me go? While I like being held, this feels a bit more like being restrained.”

Aubrey looked at Mary, bound in her gold locks. “Ba… baa baa.” Aubrey’s hair slowly slithered off of Mary.

“Thanks. I must say your hair is really soft. Also… I would like to mention this is now the second time your hair has started grasping at me on its own.”

Mary heard in her mind, “I’m sorry. Please believe me, it isn’t intentional. My hair is like a limb now. Haven’t you ever had an arm or leg wander in the middle of the night? My hair is just… more flexible.”

Mary held out her hands to placate Aubrey. “I’m not mad. I get it. I will say it does sort of make me want to buy Bound in Gold for you.”

“Baaa, baaaa ba.” Aubrey pouted and gave Mary a pleading look.

“Aubrey, I won’t. I was mostly just saying it would be nice to give you a taste of it. I don’t want you to have to deal with it constantly.” Mary leaned over and kissed her. Both of their lips lingered, feeling quite sensitive. “Wow. That was great.”

“Baaa.” Aubrey nodded in agreement, slightly breathily.

“We should probably get up. You, a bit more so than me, since I’m incapacitated today. Let’s go out and talk with the others. Ellen said she was going to try to organize the prisoner swap for today if possible.”

Aubrey nodded, and the two of them got dressed and went out to the lounge. Even though Mary couldn’t buff the team, she still made everyone breakfast, with more than enough for Sadie and Ethel as well.

The others came and joined Aubrey and Mary shortly.

Mira and Merigold flanked Merida on either side as they took up one side of the table, and Ellen, Hilde, and Aubrey took up the other.

Hilde asked, “Ellen, are we on for the prisoner exchange today?”

In between bites of sausage, Ellen nodded. “We should be. Laura and I think we’ve come up with a way to transfer the prisoners with no one trying to ambush the other side, even without Mary being involved. She has to check with Chloe first, since it involves her making a promise. Assuming she does that, then yes.”

“Hoo’s Chloe promisin’ somethin’ goin’ tae wirk?” Merida asked.

“The idea is they’ll release Chloe to us under the promise that if we don’t release Sadie and Ethel, she’ll return to being their prisoner, and if we ambush them, she will try to reveal our base’s location to them. She’ll also get a promise from them that they won’t ambush us for the duration of the exchange.” Ellen took a few more bites and then continued. “Once we have Chloe, she’ll get a promise from Sadie and Ethel. Essentially, the same promise Chloe made to the other team, but for Flora. With Laura acting as guarantor on their end, promising Chloe that if the other team tries to ambush us during this, she will attempt to incapacitate them repeatedly.”

Mary said, “So, no, trying to ambush the other team got that. Ellen, if you need it because Chloe won’t cooperate for some reason, you can let Laura know that if you guys agree to this prisoner exchange and there’s an ambush or trap laid to screw over the other team with it, I’ll make sure that the team that does it will be the team I have a lower score for.”

Merida bit her lip. “Umm… what do you mean by trap?”

Mary glared at Merida. “What were you planning, because I’m serious about this. Look, the challenge pitting you against each other is one thing, but if you guys strike a deal and you betray that trust, it will carry past the challenge. I’m not having that. So Merida, tell me what you cooked up.”

Merida didn’t want to meet Mary’s gaze. Mira was the one to speak up, “She mind fucked Sadie and Ethel. Implanted a few things to make those bitches, effective sleeper agents.”

Mary took a deep breath. “Merida, I’m going to assume that mind fucked here really just means hypnotized and is getting messed with by Mira’s speech TF. I’m not super pleased to learn you were using it that way at all, but assuming that the triggers were all things related to the LARP, I’m going to let it go. You will be removing those triggers, though. ALL OF THEM. Do. I. Make. My. Self. Clear?”

Merida nodded. Hilde broke in, “Now hold on a second, Mistress. Aubrey and I discussed this with her—”

“NO.” Mary slammed the table. “Hilde, I don’t care what you were planning. I might understand if we had fought and captured one secretly, and simply let them go. I still don’t think I would be happy about it, but I might let you do it. This, though, isn’t even about the hypnosis. This is about abusing their trust. Ellen and Laura are trying to work something out, and at least part of why this is going to happen is because the two of them trust each other not to stab the other in the back. I noticed you specifically didn’t mention that Ellen knew about this. Probably so she wouldn’t be lying to Laura about anything. That is my problem. Merida, I will be joining you when you remove the triggers. I sincerely hope you didn’t put in anything egregious.”

“I don’t think I did. Just things to make them perform worse during the LARP.” Merida looked down.

Mira said, “I fucking told you last night you would be dumbasses to do this, but you wouldn’t fucking listen.”

Hilde continued, “Mistress, you know full well that betrayals happen in challenges.”

“And I’m certain you know how that tends to go after the challenge is over. I’m not going to be party to it. Let me make this clear, Hilde, if you do this, I’m going to simply ride a horse to the capital. I might even tell them where the base is. So drop it.”

Hilde frowned, but did drop the topic.

The breakfast was rather tense after that. Everyone finished their food rather quickly. As soon as Merida was done eating, Mary took her to the cells to fix her mistake.

Mary and Merida entered the cells, each carrying a tray of food. Mary said, “Good morning, you two. We brought breakfast. It’s looking like you two will be returned today.”

Sadie replied. “That’s good to hear, though I wasn’t particularly thrilled about the messages I received this morning.” Mary cocked her head to one side. Sadie shrugged, “I guess there isn’t any harm in telling you since you’ll know once the deal goes down. I won’t actually recover tomorrow morning. Flora and Chloe won’t either, I assume. Also, I got a notification that everyone not incapacitated on my team got two CP each for holding Chloe and Flora prisoner.”

“Ah, you can’t rest, because there are enemies nearby,” Mary replied.

“I guess?”

“Now, Sadie, I want to apologize, and we are here to correct what was done to the two of you.” Mary then elbowed Merida.

Before Merida could speak, Sadie asked, “What do you mean, what was done to us?”

Merida stepped forward. “Ye widna mind, but I hypnotized ye baith yesternicht. I’m gaun tae undo that.”

Sadie glared at Merida, then turned to Mary. “I’m assuming you didn’t approve of her actions?”

Mary shook her head, “No, I didn’t. Hilde and Aubrey apparently knew, though. I made it clear, Merida is reversing this, or I would simply ride to the capital tomorrow and turn myself in.”

Ethel looked confused. “Why would you do that? Sadie, I’m really confused.”

Sadie explained before Mary could, “Ethel, Mary hasn’t exactly lied to you. This is sort of a game for Cassandra. When this is over, no matter what happens here. The heroes of Cassandra and Champions of Smug will be going back to where we came from. There, all of us are part of Mary’s harem, where we are all competing in a different game of Cassandra’s design.”

“So… I’m worshiping a lie?”

“Ethel, I don’t know.” Sadie was trying to be as sympathetic as she could.

“Would you tell me if you did?”

“I don’t know. I do know that I wouldn’t try to deceive you, but there are things that I might not tell you because I can’t, for one reason or another.”

Ethel moved to look Sadie directly in the eye, “Is this a game to you? Is my life?”

“Ethel, I’m trying my best to consider your feelings. Some of the choices are because I’m playing Cassandra’s game. I don’t have a choice but to play it, but I am not blind to how this makes you feel.”

Ethel nodded. “Okay. I guess that’s the best I’m going to get out of any of you. Thank you.”

Mary looked at Ethel, “I’m sorry you’re caught in the middle of all this. Now Merida, if you would.”

Merida nodded and found it rather easy to put Sadie back under, but Ethel wasn’t cooperating. After two minutes, Mary intervened. “Ethel, right now, Merida has already implanted suggestions in you last night. If we send you back as you are now, then you will actively sabotage Sadie and the others. Is that what you want?”

“No… but I don’t trust you.”

“Then trust Sadie. She’s cooperating. Let Merida do this, please.”

“Fine.” Ethel turned to face Merida. She still found Ethel inherently resistant to her hypnosis, but with a lot of help from her magic got her back into a trance.

“Ethel, Sadie, gie's a nod if ye unnerstaun’ me.” Both nodded. “Guid.”

Mary whispered to Merida, “Have them list off their previous instructions.”

“Sadie, dae ye mind a’ o’ the suggestions I gie’d ye afore?” A nod. “Cud ye repeat them back tae me, please?”

“I should pick quests that are either very risky for the rewards, or are a waste of time. I should assign Talia to the most dangerous tasks. I should avoid tasks I think will have us going up against you. I should actively sabotage any effort to find your base. I should care less about the risk of infection or exposure to the effects of the idols you have used. I’m not supposed to remember these suggestions consciously or the conversation we had about them.”

Merida looked at Mary, hoping she wasn’t too upset. Mary indicated to do the same for Ethel. “Ethel, cud ye repeat ma suggestions back tae me, please?”

“I should take as long as possible on any task requested of me by the Heroes. I’ll accidentally make mistakes, making things take longer or allowing the Heroes to be in greater danger. I should distract the Heroes from their mission and only offer help when directly requested. If I find any evidence of Smug’s lair, I should actively destroy it if possible before the Heroes learn about it. I should not remember these suggestions consciously or the conversation we had about them.”

Mary nodded and whispered, “Okay, now get rid of all of them.”

“Ethel, Sadie, I want ye baith tae pay nae heed tae a’ the suggestions I’ve gie’d ye. Ye shouldna act on ony o’ them. Ye’ll be able tae mind whit they wir, but they winna drive ye tae act. Can ye confirm ye unnerstaun’? Sadie first.”

“I’ll remember the suggestions but feel no desire to act on them.”

“Noo Ethel.”

“I’ll remember the suggestion, but they won’t compel me to do anything.”

“Guid, noo when I snit ma fingers, ye'll come back tae yer senses.” Snap.

Sadie said, “Wow, we would have been screwed. Thank you, Mary.”

Mary nodded. “Not a problem. Enjoy your breakfast, and when we know how we are doing this, we’ll come get you.” With that, Mary and Merida left the two alone in the cells.

Mark and Isabella woke up to the sound of something crashing on the floor. Mark looked around for the source of the disturbance, but it was dark in the room. He did notice that only Isabella was next to him. “Allie? Are you okay? What happened?” Mark could make out her outline in the dark.

“MOOO!” Was the only response Mark or Isabella heard, before another crashing of plates.

Isabella rushed for the lights when they were on; they were both confused. A woman who looked like a combination of Allie and Aubrey stood in the room. She had long golden blonde hair, and instead of the wolf ears and tail, had cow ears and tail. Small horns were protruding from the top of her head, not fully grown yet. Her breasts had increased in size, but not as much as the rest of the Mad Cow-Girls.

“Shit! Isa, guard the door. Don’t let her get out, or we could have a serious problem.” Mark tried reaching out to Laura. “LAURA, I NEED YOUR HELP! LAURA, PLEASE!”

Laura responded groggily, “Mark? Why are you shouting in my head? How are you shouting in my head?”

“No time! Allie’s infected with Mad Cow-Girl. I need help to contain her without this spreading or incapacitating her.”

“I’ll be right there.”

“Isa, we have backup on the way. Allie currently just seems disoriented; let her be for the moment. I don’t think she’s transformed fully yet.”

“How though? Why did it take so long?”

“I’m guessing it was your cooking. It gave her substantial resistance. Probably extended the incubation time as well. I’m just hoping she wasn’t infectious yesterday. We need Sam and Talia to get checked out. We should probably do the same for Chloe and Flora, too.”

“Why? Let the other team deal with the consequences of their actions.”

“No. We’ll discuss it later, but no.” Mark and Isabella watched as Allie was clearly searching the room for something, but wasn’t finding it.

A knock came from the door. Laura said, “It’s me. Open up. Sam and Talia know about it but are staying away to prevent the risk of infection.” Isabella opened the door. “Okay, so what’s the plan? How do we reverse this? Do you have anything, Mark?”

Mark shook his head. “No, but remember what that farm girl, Arnelle, said yesterday? She said they had a way to reverse this if they got to it in time. Isa, any idea how long before the buff from your food wears off?”

Isabella looked at the time on her phone. “Maybe two hours? It depends if the time is from when she started eating or finished eating.”

“Here’s my plan. You two keep her contained here, preferably without incapacitating her. I’ll check with Maja first, but assuming they don’t have more people to deal with this, I’ll fly out to the barricade and bring back the healer. Hopefully, Allie isn’t too far gone for her to reverse this. Then we’ll need to check if Sam and Talia might be infected. If they are, we could have a serious problem on our hands.”

Laura nodded, and Mark rushed off. Mark ran into Freya as he was heading towards the stables. “Freya, can you tell me if there is anyone capable of curing Mad Cow-Girl here in the capital?”

Freya shook her head, “I’m afraid not, Sir Garret. They have all been sent to the barricade. May I ask why?”

“Allie is infected, but hasn’t fully transformed. We think Isa’s food buff is slowing the full transformation.”

“I’ll enact quarantine measures immediately, but I don’t know how to help Lady Allie.”

“That’s fine, can you tell me who at the barricade I’m looking for? I plan to fly there now.”

“Any of the Priestess Petras.”

“Any of them? Wait, is there more than one Priestess Petra?”

“All of the most potent healers are named Petra; Princess Ethel is the exception.”

Mark shook his head. Cassandra and her bits. “Thank you. I’ll be off.” Mark transformed into a dragon and flew off to the farmland, where he met Arnelle the day prior.

Sam and Talia were in their room when Freya knocked and spoke through the door. “Heroes, I believe you are aware of the situation. I do not wish enter for fear of infection. If possible, in a few minutes, could you try to make your way down to the dungeon and lock yourselves in a cell? Our reports say that the stronger a person is when they turn, the more fearsome and dangerous they are. I fear what would happen if you two were to turn and weren’t contained.”

Talia nodded to Sam. Sam replied. “We understand, Freya. A word of warning, Court Wizard Maja was with us last night. Not to mention, both of the prisoners could be infected, so isolate anyone who has had contact with them as well.”

“Thank you,” Freya replied, and then they heard her footsteps retreating from the door. The next few hours in the capital were a blur of motion and a low level of panic.

Laura and Isabella were **** to restrain Allie, tying her up in the bed sheets, as she was getting more violent. The sound of the fabric ripping didn’t give them much hope that she would stay bound long. Laura managed to grapple with Allie and carry her down to the cells, tossing her into one by herself.

Chloe was confused, “What the hell happened to Aubrey?”

Laura looked at Chloe, debating whether to explain. Ultimately, her friendship with Chloe won out. “That’s not Aubrey. Cassandra just made the Mad Cow-Girl plague turn people into copies of her with cow features.”

Chloe visibly relaxed, “So who is that. No way, it is just some random infected.”

“Not telling you that.” Laura relaxed slightly now that the immediate danger had been contained, though she was annoyed to receive a face full of strawberry milk. She cleaned off her face and then went to stand in front of Chloe’s cell. “We need to talk.”

“What about?”

“I mentioned the prisoner exchange.” Chloe nodded. “To make that work, I’m going to need some promises from you.” Flora wiggled herself into a sitting position to pay attention to the conversation.

“Like what?” Chloe asked.

“A rather extensive set of promises. Talia has them written down. Ellen knows of the plan, and the three of us believe this will allow you two to return to your team while Ethel and Sadie are returned to us, while preventing any ambushes.”

“I’m not agreeing until I see the promises, but tentatively I’m on board.”

“Good, we were hoping that was the case. I’ll have Talia stop by with the list when we have our current crisis resolved.” With that, Laura left them be.

Two hours later, Mark, Laura, and Petra entered the cells, finding them rather full. Petra went down to Allie’s cell to examine her. “Good news. She isn’t fully turned. Bad news is that she is most certainly infectious. Did she hit anyone with her milk?” Laura raised her hand. Petra cast a spell on Laura. “You’re clean. No one else, though?”

Laura shook her head. “She didn’t start even trying to spray people with her milk until a few hours ago.”

“Okay, well, could you incapacitate her?” Petra asked.

Mark replied, “We were sort of hoping that you could help her without her being incapacitated.”

“Sir Garret, I lack the immunity the two of you apparently possess. There is a separate issue that it isn’t a short process, and the subject tends to be exhausted for a while after treatment. Even if I thought I was capable of treating her while conscious, which I’m not, she still would likely not be useful today. Incapacitating her is safer and results in her getting back into action when she normally would.”

“You sure?” Laura asked.

“Yes, unless you have a miracle up your butt. Now let me know when she is incapacitated while I examine the rest of the potentially infected.” Petra started to go around the cells, casting spells on each person.

Laura looked at Mark, “Any ideas? Losing her today would be a big blow.”

Mark thought about it. “One, but I don’t know how I feel about using it.”

“What?”

“I could eat out, Chloe. The problem is I don’t know if she’d consent, and conditioning her freedom on allowing it feels like sexual extortion to me.”

“Let me take care of that,” Laura said, placing a hand on Mark’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, I’m not going to threaten her, I’m just going to persuade her.”

Laura walked over to Chloe’s cell, finding Petra examining her. “Is she clean, Petra?”

“Yes. Everyone else is. Thankfully.”

Laura noticed people filing out of the cells.

“Good. Chloe, we need to talk.”

“I’m listening, forgive me for remaining prone. I’m sort of tied up at the moment.”

“I want you to let Mark eat you out to copy a TF from you that he thinks could help Allie.”

“And why would I let that happen?” Chloe tilted her head and saw Mark behind Laura. “Mark won’t do that without my consent. Not if he is in his right mind.”

“You’re right,” Laura replied. “I’m here to persuade you. I want to make this clear: your agreement is not a precondition to the prisoner exchange. That being said, right now, the prisoner exchange isn’t balanced. Merida and Ellen both said that the deal favors your team overall. Maybe not by a lot, but it definitely favors your team. As one of the two people primarily benefiting the most on your team from the deal, I’m willing to bet you’d feel indebted to our team. I’m offering you a chance to preemptively balance the scales. I’m also giving you the opportunity to handle your own craving. Since we didn’t give you anything to suck on, I’m willing to bet you’re craving Mark’s dick something fierce right now. I don’t know for sure if the exchange is happening today. Maybe it will happen tomorrow. Will you be able to handle your cravings that long without release? What would you do to pay back the favor of your release?”

“Just because others find the deal unbalanced doesn’t mean I do. Also, Mark owes me already for a requested favor. Don’t you, Mark?”

Mark thought about it and found he did, though he wasn’t sure why. “She’s right, I do feel like I owe her a bit. I’m pretty sure letting you suck my dick once would repay that favor, though. So that isn’t really all that much leverage.”

“Mark, you plan on copying my Fairy Godmother TF, don’t you?”

“That’s the idea.”

“Cassandra, I need clarification on the rules.” Cassandra appeared, and all the NPCs still in the dungeon, and Allie froze.

“Yes, what is it?”

“If Mark copies my Fairy Godmother TF, and he uses the favors in some way to help Allie, will Mary have her number of favors decrease?”

“Mary was right yesterday, normally the number of favors wouldn’t refresh copying the TF a second time. In this instance, though, Mark and Mary will have a separate amount so long as the favors are LARP-related or don’t combine to be more than three non-LARP favors.”

“Thank you.” Cassandra vanished, and time resumed.

“Mark, I’ll allow this on three conditions. First, you have to ensure this prisoner swap happens today. Second, I get to suck your dick immediately. Third, you agree that you will only use the favors to help Allie right now, and if there are any extra favors left over, you either won’t use them or will use them to get Cassandra to confirm that Sadie is manipulating you and lying about what happened.”

“On that last one, what if she isn’t?”

“She is. In the off chance that Cassandra can provide evidence that she isn’t fine, but the favors are to help Allie and determine the validity of Sadie’s and my statements about what happened.”

“Works for me.”

“Then fine, let me have that dick.”

Laura excused herself as Mark entered the cell. Mark undid the bindings around Chloe’s legs and removed her pants and panties. Then he dropped his own pants. Chloe had expected him to climb on top of her. Instead, Mark picked her up at the waist.

“Mark, I thought we were going to give each other oral, not have sex.”

Mark smirked, kissed her, then said, “We are.” Mark then flipped Chloe upside down. Her knees were now above his shoulders with her face at his crotch level. Mark wasted no time and began to eat her out, sticking his tongue in deep.

Chloe was having a bit more trouble. Between her arms being tied, her blood rushing to her head, and the pleasure Mark was giving her, it was hard to focus. Mark’s unusually massive dick did not help the matter either. After about a minute of struggling, she managed to get her lips around his cock. She was glad to find that Mark didn’t waste time and started to thrust his hips, and just fucked her throat.

Mark had noticed that Flora was staring intently at him. He saw Flora’s thighs squirm. Mark didn’t break eye contact with her, all while he continued to ravish Chloe. When he started to thrust his cock down Chloe’s throat, he saw Flora start to pant. I bet if she weren’t restrained, she’d be touching herself right now. It didn’t take long for Mark to feel Chloe convulse in pleasure or for him to shoot his massive load into Chloe’s mouth and throat. He sat Chloe down, and decided to be merciful and take one of her confiscated suckers and stuck it in her mouth. “Satisfied?”

Chloe shook her head. “No, but that was still great. Thanks for the sucker, too.”

Mark pulled out his phone, sending a text to Cassandra, who appeared a minute later. “I want to use the favors.”

“I figured that would be the case. What exactly do you want?”

“I want Petra there to be able to restore Allie without her being incapacitated today, so she isn’t behind on a day of progress.”

“Simple enough, that will be one of the three favors. Do you want to use the other two?”

“Yes, I want to know the truth about what happened between Sadie and Chloe.”

“Hmm… I do have that knowledge. Considering the value and difficulty of confirming it yourself, I’ll give you three yes or no questions per favor you use. Assuming you want to do that.”

“At least one favor, yes.” Mark noticed Chloe was now laser-focused, but noticed she was the only one moving besides himself and Cassandra. Flora was frozen mid-pant. Mark considered the wording of his first question. It has to be answered with a yes or no. “Cassandra, am I going to have to make sure that there is absolutely no ambiguity possible, or will you clarify?”

“Depends, I won’t be trying to trick you.”

“Fine, first question. Did Sadie tell Chloe that she was interested in me, and if it was okay to ask me out?”

“Yes, she did.”

Chloe exclaimed, “That’s not true!”

Cassandra seemed to ignore her outburst. “Two more questions.”

Hmm… what is the most important thing, I guess, to know if Chloe is lying? “Okay, Cassandra, second question. Was Chloe aware or under the impression that Sadie was interested in me and okayed her to ask me out?”

“No.”

Chloe looked confused. “Wait, aren’t those contradictory?”

Mark shook his head, “Not necessarily. I’m sure you remember someone telling you something, but not hearing a word they said, before. I’m guessing that is what happened here. Sadie said the words, and for one reason or another, you didn’t process them, but you said something indicating you were okay with it. Okay, Cassandra, third question. Is Sadie responsible for the continued harassment of Chloe at her workplace?”

Cassandra hesitated before answering. Mark could see her lips move to one side. “Hmm, that’s tricky. So I will expand on the answer slightly. It could be argued she is responsible, and it could be argued she isn’t.”

Chloe exclaimed, “I knew it. See, Mark, I told you. She was still messing with me.”

Fuck, I figured it would be a simple no. I guess I need to use the other favor then. “Chloe, I don’t think that is the case. Cassandra made a point to expand on the answer because it wasn’t a simple yes or no. Which is likely because of my poor wording of the question. Cassandra said it could be argued. Meaning it’s debatable if she is responsible. Okay, Cassandra, I want to use the last favor for more questions.” Cassandra nodded. “Has Sadie, since graduation, personally taken an action against Chloe that wasn’t in response to something Chloe did or said about her first? That includes telling someone else to do something.”

“No.”

Mark breathed a sigh of relief. “Chloe, you got anything you want to know with these last two questions?”

“A lot, but I don’t know if I can get answers with a yes or no question.”

Mark turned back to Cassandra. “Did Sadie know why Chloe was initially mad at her before their sorority sat them down to talk this out?”

“No.”

Chloe spoke up, “Cassandra, are you really telling us that this was all just one big misunderstanding where Sadie thought I gave her permission to ask Mark out?”

Cassandra didn’t answer the question. Mark said, “I’d like to make that my last question.”

“Then, yes. That is exactly the case.” With that, Cassandra vanished, and time resumed once again.

Mark and Chloe looked at each other, befuddled. Mark said, “Well, that was both extremely helpful and incredibly baffling.”

“I don’t understand how this could have happened,” Chloe replied.

“Me either. I think after the round is over, the three of us might need to sit down and figure this out. I’m not going to tell you to get over everything the two of you have done to one another, but maybe consider that Sadie isn’t truly as awful as you thought she was.”

Chloe didn’t respond further beyond a nod, but Mark saw her eyebrows furrow.

Mark went over to Flora. “Hey there, how are you doing?” Flora squirmed slightly, taking in Mark’s scent. Mark kept his voice low so Chloe wouldn’t hear. “I’m willing to bet that turned you on something fierce. Watching me devour that helpless little bunny. I bet you wanted to be a part of that, didn’t you?”

Flora nodded and let out a quiet “Mrow.”

“Would you like me to give you some release as well?” Mark brushed her cheek and scratched behind her ears.

“Mrow.” Flora nodded and rubbed her cheek against Mark’s hand.

“I’m happy to devour my little kitten, too. Is that fine with you? Know I’m going to copy your boon if you agree.”

Talia walked in behind Mark and said, “Hey, so I have the list of promises for you to look over, Chloe.”

Flora was suddenly having trouble thinking properly. If she could, though, she would probably be cursing Talia’s Anime Physics to cause suspiciously timed events to occur. Flora had just gone into heat, and she needed sexual satisfaction. So, not thinking about the consequences, Flora nodded, letting out a “MEOW!” as she started to pant.

Talia became aroused at seeing Flora in heat. “Umm… Mark, can I stick around? You know I have a thing for animal girls, and all the transformations going off is getting me going…”

“I don’t mind, but that’s up to Flora.”

“She… can… watch… but not… touch…” Flora panted out.

Petra stepped away from Allie. “Mark, I swear if she roars from you getting her off, while I’m in earshot, I’m going to be PISSED. I will leave Allie untreated if that happens.”

Flora pleaded. “Please, Mark. I need this. I’m worried what I’ll do otherwise.”

Talia said, “Give me a minute.” She walked over to Petra and cast a time bubble. A minute later, Petra and a naked Allie stepped out of the cell, with Allie seemingly back to normal. Petra hurried off, not waiting even a second. Talia handed Allie some clothes.

Allie asked, “What happened? Mark, can you explain?”

“You were infected with Mad Cow-Girl. Honestly, it was kind of hot except for the mad part. Could you go with Talia? I’d like to take care of my little kitten here.”

Allie frowned. “Do you really have to? Shouldn’t your other half be responsible for that?”

Chloe responded before Mark could. “Allie, she’s in heat right now. She’ll continue to seek sexual satisfaction. I worry that she’ll cave and let Talia have her way with her.”

“And?”

“And Flora’s and Merida’s relationship is already troubled because Merida and Hilde did stuff together. Merida caused Hilde to fall in love with her, and so there is a whole shit show going on. Please let Mark take care of her.”

“Wait, what happened with Merida and Hilde?” Mark asked, worriedly.

“Mary knows about this. I’m not going into more detail, but it’s not great.”

Allie sighed, “Fine. Just make it quick. I want another round with your dick this morning.”

Allie walked out, looking back to see if Talia would follow, but Talia stayed put.

“Um… Talia, are you sure you want to stay? The heat spreads via her roars.”

“I have a near insatiable girlfriend, Mark. If I need relief, I can just go talk to Laura.”

“What about me?” Chloe asked.

Mark turned to Chloe, “You, my slutty little bunny, will just have to deal.”

Mark knelt beside Flora and nearly had to peel her pants off; they were so tight. Mark was surprised she had gone commando. “I see you have decided underwear isn’t needed anymore.”

“Less… talking… more… tongue… please…” Mark saw Flora’s toes curl as she spoke.

Mark obliged her, slowly licking her and teasing her clit in between the fork of his tongue.

“MRRROOOWW!” Flora let out as she wrapped her legs around Mark’s head. “MROOW!”

Mark decided to stick his tongue in to taste her insides. A few minutes later, Flora roared as she came. “MRRROOAAR! More! Please MORE!” Mark noticed Flora’s eyes had narrowed to pinpoints, and she was still breathing heavily. “Mark, please, I need you.” Flora spread her legs as wide as she could, offering up her wet, eager pussy.

“We aren’t having sex, Flora. Not right now. You’ll need to wait a little bit. Talia, explain to Chloe here the promises so we can get this exchange done.”

Mark stood up, “Sorry, Flora, but you’ll have to wait for Merida or Mary to take care of you.” Then Mark vanished from everyone’s perception. While extremely horny, Talia did as she was instructed and found getting Chloe to make the promises rather easy, with Chloe’s own arousal making her more compliant.
