After being dragged inside Sensual Luxury by Cayley, Divi and Sofia looked around in amazement. There were so many different beautiful, sexy, cute, and lovely styles of clothing around the shop. Some of which were rather naughty. As Cayley and Divi walked off to look for the owner, Sofia's eye was drawn to one item in particular. She looked around before walking closer to inspect this outfit. At first glance, it appeared to be a simple high school girl's uniform with sheer mid thigh high white pantyhose. However, there was a special note pinned to the front. When she leaned in closer, she could read what was written upon it.

"Designed to conform to any body type, these clothes will increase your aura of innocence, sexual allure, and resilience. Although this will increase your partner's desire to protect you and make love to you. These benefits also have drawbacks when worn. It is suggested to wear these clothes when at home with your partner or on the hunt for evil. Warning: This will highly increase the attraction of your partner, demons, tentacle monsters, slime girls, rapists, scumbags, knights in shining armor, and police officers to you."

Sofia blushed when initially thinking about Lex being more attracted to her than he was already, but was chilled by the thought of being attacked while wearing them too. She was surprised by the oddly sense of thrill. Was she more of a pervert than she originally thought? Her attention was pulled away from these clothes when she felt a small soft hand upon the back of her right outer thigh and heard a young lady's voice. "I've heard good things about that one. Many women rekindle the spark in their marriage with it."

When Sofia looked down and behind her right outer thigh, she saw a short woman who appeared to be fairly young. She had long dark green hair that ran down to the middle of her back, tied in a simple braid, a cute round face, straight eyebrows, dainty heart shaped light red lips, pale white skin, and light purple eyes. "Oh, um. Sorry, I was just looking." She blinked while thinking. 'Oh my, she's so small and cute. I have never seen such an adorable little girl before.' Upon closer inspection, she realized that this little lady might be who she was looking for.

Sofia smiled. "Say, are you the owner of this store? If you are, I was wondering if you knew where my brother, Lex has run off to." Urici smiled in a playful manner, but had an equally puzzled look upon her face. "Oh? To answer your first question, I am part owner of this establishment. However, the Lex I know of is a woman. Can you describe your Lex to me? He might have walked outside my shop." While speaking, she looked over to the school girl's outfit. "You know, why don't you try on this little number? We can talk more about this while you try this on."

Urici snapped her fingers, causing those clothes to vanish and reappear near the dressing room area at the back of the shop. She took Sofia's hand and started to lead her toward the changing rooms. "He's obviously important to you. So, tell me all about him." Sofia looked down as she followed Urici. "He's tall, very handsome, and very kind. He has light brown hair, a square face, straight eyebrows, and this next part is very important. His left eye is the prettiest icy blue and his right eye is the most enchanting emerald green." She let out a soft breath as a cute dopey smile over took her lips. Just envisioning him was breath taking to her. ♥

Urici nodded slightly while leading Sofia into the changing room. "He certainly sounds like a keeper, but didn't you say this was your brother? Is there a reason for this unusual obsession with him?" Sofia felt herself blushing as she realized how perverse this sounded. "Oh, um. I forgot to mention this, but he's actually my step brother. He was adopted into my family. Ever since I met him, he has been a very sweet older brother." There was a soft giggle heard from the other side of the curtain as she started to undress. "Oh, I see. Now I understand. So, young lady. Have you told him how you feel yet?"

Sofia felt a rush throughout her body as she thought about what had happened with Lex before. How passionate, forceful, and naughty he had been with her! ♥ It was like a dream come true. However, with this new realization. She couldn't help, but feel a void within that moment. She couldn't believe she had forgotten to tell him how he made her feel. Sure, she told him about her naughty desires, but not how much she loved him. How being with him made her feel safe, warm, and cared for. If anyone knew how much she thought about him. Well, they would likely say it was an obsession, but she didn't care. She loved him and that was that.

Sofia's eyes looked down as she slipped on her pantyhose. "Um, no. I, I haven't told him exactly how I feel yet. I mean, I plan to, but I haven't had the chance to do so." Urici cleared her throat. "Well, like me, life is short. So, be sure to tell him when you find him." Sofia chuckled as she stepped out, showing off the school girl's uniform. "I will, thanks. Um, what do you think? Does it look too childish?" Urici's eyes ran along Sofia's frame before she shook her head. "Not at all. You look gorgeous in fact. I don't mean to pry, but have you ever considered modeling?"

Sofia turned to look at herself in a full body length mirror nearby. This outfit really looked nice on her. It showed off her slender curves without appearing trashy, slutty, or even whorish. At that moment, there was a whistle heard as Cayley walked out from behind a rack of clothing nearby with Divi in tow. "Wow, you are killing it in that outfit. Who are you getting dolled up for? Whoever it is. They are certainly lucky." Sofia's cheeks turned bright red. "I'm not getting dolled up." She looked down at herself then away. Her cheeks were becoming even more red. "I, I am just trying out this nice outfit."

Urici brought her right pointer finger up to her lips, tapping a few times before nodding to herself. "Tell you what. It's on the house. Just keep me in mind if you ever consider modeling." She snapped her fingers, causing Urici's business card to appear several inches in front of Sofia's face. "Oh, and if your brother is as good looking as you say. Have him stop by too. It's hard to find good models for my shop." As Sofia reached out to pluck that business card out of the air, Cayley looked to Urici while lifting a brow. "I didn't know you were looking for models, Urici."

Urici looked slightly away. "Look, no offense Cayley, but you know half elf models don't do very well. Sure, your quite attractive, but it upsets the elven community." Cayley sighed as Divi leaned in to gently kiss her cheek before whispering into her ear. "It's okay. You still have me, right?" Cayley's cheeks turned bright red. "Mm, yeah. I do." As Cayley leaned gently against Divi, Sofia tilted her head. "Sure, I'll take it into consideration, Urici. Thank you." Urici smiled widely. "Think nothing of it."

At that moment, there was a loud explosion near the front counter, sending something small flying in their direction. Everyone scattered before the impact, sending dust and smoke everywhere. When the smoke cleared, there was a burn, male gnome laying face first on the ground. It was Urici's husband, Niroc. His short dark purple hair was heavily singed, making him look even more worn out than normal. He turned over and let out a puff of smoke, his light green eyes opened. His exposed pale peach skin was covered in soot.

Niroc reached a hand toward his thin, curled at the ends mustache, stroking it gently. "Hmm, not enough female dwarf's hair." Cayley, Divi, Sofia, and Urici came back out. Urici rushed to Niroc's side and helped him to his feet. "Ugh, you promised me you would stop experimenting for at least a little while." He shook his head, brushing off his white lab coat before cleaning his thin silver framed glasses. "Woman, you know I can't be stopped when there is science to be done!" He got up to pick up one of his fallen slippers before putting it back on.

Niroc blinked before turning around, looking directly into Sofia's eyes. "Wait, you! Yes, you. I can tell its you. Good, good. I was pretty sure she would be followed." Sofia was quite confused as she looked at Niroc's circular face and slightly raised, singed arched eyebrows. "Hmm? What about me, mister?" He looked around at the ladies before looking back to Sofia. "I can see Lex's chemical trail all over your body, yes. Quite intimately too. Hmm, she was here not too long ago. I sent her to the Scarlet Letter Brothel. You should go there now. Things should be getting interesting over there." He paused before looking down with a perplexed look upon his face. "Now, what was I doing? Oh, yes! Back to science!"

Niroc promptly turned around and fell face first on the ground, passed out cold. Everyone watched in a stunned silence. Concerned for her husband, Urici was the first to move. She reached down to check his pulse. "Oh good. I swear, one of these days you are going to give me a heart attack." She chanted softly, causing his body to float into the air beside her. "Um, don't mind him. He simply forgets to sleep when there is work to be done." She started to walk off with his body floating beside her. "I need to tuck him into bed. Feel free to look around some more." Cayley was trembling, but she didn't say anything until Urici was out of earshot. "D-did he seriously say the Scarlet Letter Brothel!?"

Divi and Sofia tilted their heads, but only Divi spoke. "Is that bad?" Cayley nodded slightly. "I've only heard rumors, but they say that if your lover goes there. They won't come back the same." Sofia's eyes widened and before she knew it she was running for the door. She couldn't lose Lex. Not now, not ever. Divi picked up Sofia's clothing and absorbed it before she and Cayley gave chase. Sofia soon ran out of Sensual Luxury, returning to the mall. She felt like an idiot for running out without even knowing where this place was. However, it sounded like Cayley had a good idea where it was.

There were a few questions that came to Sofia's mind. Did Cayley know where the Scarlet Letter Brothel is? If so, would they make it in time to save Lex? Hmm, is it really as bad as it sounded?
