You choose Doe

You tell Doe to continue her studies. As she goes back to reading her books you put down the one you’ve been reading and walk to the library’s window. As you look outside you think about getting married.

When you wanted to let the Duchess wait until she offered you a better price, you just expected her to offer you a payment in money, gems or resources. A marriage is more of a commitment. Not just from her but also from you. It means that every time Duchess Akemi gets into an internal dispute with another lord, her daughter, your wife then, would bother you to step away from your studies and help her mother. Also, if she finds out Doe is already carrying your children and you plan to keep her and the kids close, she could be resentful.

No, you’d thinking about this the wrong way. You should try thinking about all the benefits it would bring you.
You are already interested in transforming some nobles into foxpeople, Duchess Akemi is just the most forthright among them. You’d succeed in transforming a noble and since she’s a Duchess many will likely follow. Mostly from among her lands.
Then there is her daughter. You’d probably be able to convince her to let you turn her into a foxgirl as well. Then you’ve got another foxgirl you could breed.
You’d have an easier time getting your hands on the rare magical resources in her lands while your rival has them denied. You’d also have free reign turning the civilians into foxpeople and would keep your rival’s catgirls from spreading there.

The more you think of the benefits you’d be getting, the more it seems like a smart idea to accept. But you also get an increasingly guilty feeling about this. You had promised Doe you would be together. You’ve even sown your seed in her garden which is now producing offspring. What kind of man would you be if you make a woman carry your children just to leave her immediately after.

When you have made your decision you tell Doe to return to your quarters and wait for you there. Your rival is still in this castle and you don’t look forward to him coming to this library and find her here without you around. Then you leave for Duchess Akemi’s quarters.

When you get into the Duchess’s quarters she smiles and tells her handmaidens to stand aside.
“Welcome, Lord John. I see you came to your decision quickly.” She says.
“I did.” You say. “Though I am afraid I cannot accept your proposal.”
The Duchess’s smile fades and is replaced by shock. She had clearly not expected you to decline. Or perhaps she feels offended because you don’t consider her daughter good enough.
“You see, Duchess, I believe marriage should be based on love. If I am to marry your lovely daughter it should be her I have on my mind, nobody else.” You say diplomatically.
“And you already have someone?” The Duchess asks.
“I do.” You say. “For me to marry your daughter and then feel more attracted to a woman who isn’t my wife, that would just be an insult to your daughter and your lineage. Even greater than denying a marriage proposal. I simply respect you and yours too much to lay such an insult upon your family.”
The Duchess’s expression softens and she says, “I see. It would appear I was too late with my suggestion.”
You think back to this very morning where the moment happened that solidified your decision.
“Of It is regrettable. But I respect your decision.” The Duchess says. “I thank you for your honesty.”
You bow to her and say, “Your grace.”
Then you leave and head back towards your quarters.

When you return Doe quickly runs up to you and asks, “Well, how did it go? When are you going to get married?”
“The wedding preparations will start as soon as we are back at my castle.” You say. “The wedding should be about one month after.”
Doe smiles excitedly and says, “Great. I can’t wait until I see the Duchess’s daughter. She’s probably very pretty, right?”
“The Duchess and her daughter won’t be there, Doe.” You tell your apprentice. “Though you would do well to find yourself a white dress.”
For a split second Doe was confused. But when she understands her eyes go wide from shock, she gasps and covers her mouth with both hands.
You then grab one of her hands, kneel in front of her and says the words, “Would you like to become my wife?”
“YES!!!” Doe screeches joyfully.
She then grabs your head with both her hands and kisses you.
“Yes, of course I’ll marry you.” She says and then adjusts her dress to expose her breasts to you.
“I really thought you would accept the Duchess’s proposal.” Doe says as she pushes her breasts into your face. “Especially since I said I was fine with it.”
Then Doe sits onto your lap and takes your dick from your pants.
“But to marry me instead … Oh, thank you. Thank you so much.”
Then she slides your dick into her snatch.
As she fucks your dick she says, “Yes, I’ll be your wife, and your apprentice, and your lover, and the mother of your children … I’ll be everything you want me to be.”
“Let’s be together forever.” You say.
And the two of you fuck until you both cum.
