Doe’s feelings for you.

“Hey, Doe.” You say. “Why do you love me?”
“What do you mean?” She asks while washing her tails.
“You are my prisoner. More than that, you are my test subject. I’ve taken away your freedom and treated you as expendable. It would be more appropriate for you to hate me instead.”
“Hmm, I guess you could look at it from that perspective.” Doe says. “But you’re a super powerful mage. Even if I did hate and fight you, you’d just use your magic to defeat me and it would all be in vain.”
She then pushes her head under water and runs her fingers through her hair. When she comes back up her hair and ears are drenched, giving her a sexy look.
“Besides, you’ve brought me delicious food, taught me magic, gave me beautiful clothes, introduced me to court and even gave me some really beautiful tails. I’ve never had so much luxury and attention in my whole life.” She says while drops of water are running down her skin. “So really, I should be thanking you for imprisoning me.”

You find yourself relieved. For a couple days now, you had been worrying that Doe was using her body to get you to do things for her. She would have failed, of course. But you feel far more comfortable knowing that she cares about you for how she feels about you. Not for what she can get out of you. It’s important knowledge to have, especially when you’re going to marry her.

“And why is it you love me?” Doe asks.
Yeah, you should have expected that question from her.
“Because you are smart, kind, beautiful and gifted in magic. Everything I search for in a woman.” You say. “And now, I guess, also the mother of my children.”
Doe blushes and shyly looks away.
“After all you’ve done for me, I wanted to give something back. But there’s not much a poor imprisoned former city-girl can give.”
“Come now. You basically begged me to give you my babies. You wanted it too. And hey, I was happy to give.” You say.
“Say, John.” Your apprentice says hesitantly. “If you don’t mind, could I ask something else of you?”
You silently nod and wait for her question.
“My friends, the ones I was hiding with when the city got invaded. They are probably still out there. In prison or in slavery. I doub they have it better than me. Would you be able to find them and let me see them again?”
“I could send people to search for them. But I don’t think it’ll be easy.” You say.
“If you can, I’ll convince them to become foxgirls as well.”
That was an interesting proposal. Multiple foxgirl apprentices walking around in your castle, all of them gifted in magic. You are quickly seeing the benefits in that.
“It will be done.” You answer.

While Doe is drying out her hair and tails you go and meet with your lieutenants. You tell them about Doe’s friends and ask if they know of some ways to find them. One of the women says she knows of someone who has contacts with the thieves guild. She can contact him and see what he can come up with, but she’ll have to leave the capitol for that. One of the men suggests to contact the **** traders. Throughout the war they took a lot of civilians from the enemies lands as slaves. All he has to do is find out which slavers got merchandise from the enemy capitol and he should be able to narrow it down.
As the two lieutenants depart on their quest Doe exits your room. You take her hand and start walking with her. You’ve got a little surprise for your fiancé.
