Revealing

Kael looks around the expansive shop as he enters, with Evie trailing right behind him. One of the largest tailor shops in the city, there is an extensive collection of clothing of all types on racks and shelves. Kael leads Evie towards the women’s clothing, noting the wide eyed stare she’s giving everything around them.

“We’ll pick out a few things, but if there’s anything you like, let me know, ok?”

Evie just nods, clearly a bit overwhelmed. Kael wonders if she’s ever had the opportunity to pick her own clothing. As they walk through the racks of clothes, Kael picks a few things, glancing at Evie to see her reactions. She seems to be simply following passively, until her eyes catch on a display they’re walking past.

It’s a simple white sundress, but Evie stares at it as if it’s the most beautiful thing she’s ever seen. Kael pauses beside her. “Do you like this one, Evie?”

Evie nods. “Yes master. It looks so pretty and comfortable.”

He smiles. “We’ll get it, then.”

Evie looks at him, the ghost of a smile on her face. “Really, master? I can have this?”

Kael nods, taking one from the rack. “Of course. You can try it on to be sure it fits. The dressing rooms are over here.”

Kael leads her over to the back of the shop, where the changing room is. A desk sits beside the entrance where a store employee sits, a young woman working on a bit of sewing. She looks up as Kael and Evie approach.

“Ahh, champion Kael! A pleasure as always. Did you need something mended?”

Kael shakes his head. “No, I’m fine. Evie here needs to try on some clothes, is all.”

The woman looks at Evie and her practiced smile fades a notch. “I’m sorry, sir, but slaves are not allowed unattended in the changing room. You will need to accompany her.”

Kael hesitates for a moment. He doesn’t want to embarrass Evie, but at the same time, he wants to be sure that her clothes fit her properly. He turns to Evie, who is looking at the floor, seemingly nervous again.

“Evie, we have to go in together. I promise I’ll keep my back turned. Okay?”

Evie looks up at him for a moment, then blushes and looks away. “Y-yes, master. Th-that’s fine.”

Kael looks back at the employee. “That’s fine. We’ll need to try on a few things.”

The woman nods. “Very well. If you need anything altered, just bring it to me when you’re done.”

Kael leads Evie into a small hallway, with several doors. Opening one it reveals a small room with a bench, a large mirror, and little else. Kael sets the pile of clothes on the bench, and closes the door, leaving the two of them alone. He meets Evie’s gaze for a moment, and feels himself blush a bit as they both look away.

“Okay, Evie. I’ll face the door. You try on the clothes, and let me know what you think. I won’t turn around until you say so.”

Evie nods, blushing furiously. “Y-yes, master.”

Kael faces the door, crossing his arms to wait. After a moment, he hears the rustling of clothing as Evie gets changed. Despite having his back turned, his minds eye paints a picture of what’s happening, which flusters him more than he expected.

He hears Evie gasp, and a moment later, her soft voice. “M-master? What do you think?”

Kael turns, and sees Evie in the sundress. His breath catches in his throat as he looks at her. The light dress fits her perfectly, framing her petite body. Thin straps leave her arms and shoulders bare, her skin smooth and pale. She turns, looking in the mirror, as Kael looks her over. The dress clings to her upper body, highlighting her small breasts and narrow waist, and it stoops at her knees, giving a tantalizing glimpse of her legs.

He realizes he’s staring when her eyes meet his, and he suddenly looks away. “You look beautiful, Evie.”

He turns his back again, trying to compose himself. There’s silence for a moment, and then he hears Evie’s voice, almost a whisper. “Master…do you mean that?”

“Mean what, Evie?”

There’s a hesitation. “Am I…do you think I’m pretty, master?”

Kael turns back to her, looking into her eyes. He sees something there, a mix of fear and hope he didn’t expect. They stare into each other’s eyes for a while before he answers.

“Yes. You’re very pretty, Evie.”

She simply stares for a moment longer, before blushing and looking away. “Th-thank you, master.”

Kael turns away again, giving her privacy. After a moment, he starts to turn back to say more, but stops when he sees she’s starting to change again. He’s presented with her bare back, wearing only a pair of plain white panties. He turns away immediately, but the image of her body is burned into his mind. Slim but shapely, with smooth, pale skin. He finds himself thinking of Evie as a woman, and not just a stranger or a roommate. Shaking his head, he tries to ignore thoughts of the attractive elf changing clothes right behind him.

They repeat this several times, finding a few sets of clothes that fit her well, though none are as stunning as the dress. Kael also picked out some nightshirts for her, but they both agree that there’s no need to try them on. Back in her usual outfit, Evie seems distracted, much like Kael is, but they manage to pay for the clothes, and Kael leads them back to his house. He hands her the pile of clothes, and watches as she takes them to her room.

He sighs as he watches her go.
