Désirée's Workshop!

The four of you are unlocked from your stockades. In a rare show of kindness Mistress Jade gives you all several moments to stretch and relieve your burning muscles. You massage blood back into your sore knees. Areli and Tess silently comfort Coraline who is still dumbstruck from the news of her hormonal augment.

You shake your head.

Fools. They still don't understand the game we are playing. Power in climbing the harem is your only salvation. Better to take care of yourselves.

You reflect on your own fate. As a girl with a small chest you had always wished for more ample assets, but even you are worried about the size that was selected for you. You aren't given much time to worry.

"Line up!" Mistress Jade barks locking each of your hands behind your backs.

You follow Tess watching her cute naked ass sway with each step in her high heels. You hear the clicking heels of Areli and Coraline behind you. Mistress Jade guides you through the winding halls of Master's palace until you arrive in an area you have never been before. You would guess it is somewhere near the medical wing but are not sure.

A new beautiful woman welcomes you into a waiting room where each of you takes a seat. She is tall, beautiful, and voluptuous. Her pale skin is covered in an intricate weave of tattoos and piercings that cover her entire body. Nothing is left to the imagination as every tattoo can be seen in explicit detail through the sheer fabric of her outfit.

"Welcome, initiate sisters," she greets you, "I am Désirée and welcome to my workshop." Her exposed breasts jiggle pleasantly as she lifts her arms and gestures around the waiting room. You see that her nipples are erect and have been pierced with rings. A delicate gold chain dangles between them under the fabric.

"Thank you," Tess greets in response," We were told you would be helping us prepare for Master."

"Yes! Today you shall receive his mark!" Désirée exclaims.

Master's mark?! Already?! You had always dreamed of this moment. To bare the mark of a Master's house would forever identify you as his. Somehow this didn't match your expectations. You had always imagined meeting the Man before being marked. Perhaps they were rushing this?

Désirée seemed to recognize the uncertainty between the other girls. She gives you all a big smile, "Master's house symbol is the native Rose of Bayor 2. Like each of you the plant is beautiful, and like Master it is powerful. The thorns are capable of penetrating steel, and during season, it secretes a powerful poison! The tattoo of Master's mark serves two purposes for you. First, every display of your body glorifies him. Second, it will remind you of his ownership of you, always."

She pulls all of you in for a group hug. The warmth of your mostly naked bodies squeezing together was a welcome respite from the cold air. She beams down at all of you, "Come on girls! This is a celebration! Have fun!"

Désirée hands each of you a glass of Red 9 wine.

You take a sip. It tastes... expensive.
