Go to her mother's room

VOTING CLOSED! Thank you for voting!

[This chapter turned out a lot longer than I expected... I hope it turned out well.]

“Maybe I should visit Evelyn – it's been a few days since we've seen each other... Or maybe I should go to Lisa's place. With all the people that visit her family's inn she might have heard an interesting rumor, or something... Nah, it's too early. Maybe I'll visit them later, after having breakfast.” Cassandra paused. “Maybe I should stay at home for now. I might catch another thief, like that girl from not too long ago... She was so cute as she was begging me to let her cum... I bet mom would have lasted much longer in her position...” She paused again. “I better get up, before I think about it too much and get horny.”

With a couple of words Cassandra activated the illumination orbs and her room was bathed in a yellow light – bright enough to see but not bright enough to be unpleasant after the darkness from just moments ago. She then got out of bed and took a few moments to get used to the room's temperature. Under the covers it had been quite warm, almost hot, so the room seemed rather chilly in comparison. The fact that she was wearing nothing but a very thin – and almost completely see-through – nightgown was not helping.

After she got used to the temperature Cassandra took a look at the full-length mirror on the nearby wall. Her hair was a mess and she started brushing it while thinking about what to do afterwards. Going to check up on mom doesn't seem like a bad idea. I think I'll do that. Finished with her hair she took another look in the mirror and briefly considered wearing something less revealing, but decided there's no need. “Mother has a similar nightgown, so I'm sure she won't object to me wearing this one... I wonder how she would react if I were to visit her wearing nothing but a strap-on (and maybe high heels)?” The young woman wondered aloud, then shook her head. “What am I thinking? I better go, before I get any more weird – and arousing – ideas.”

She was about to leave when she remembered the small blue pearl she had found not too long ago. On a whim she decided to take it along. Maybe mother knows what it is? Even if she doesn't it won't cost me anything to ask. Holding the small pearl in her hand the young woman left her room.

The corridor was dark – clearly no one had used yet it this morning. As soon as Cassandra stepped out of her room the illumination orbs activated, bathing it in bright white light.

Right next to her room, on the left, was Margaret's. Across from Cassandra's room was that of Alice, her younger sister, while across from Margaret's was Valeria's room. Further to the left, at the end of the corridor, were the double doors leading to the master bedroom belonging to her parents. To the right of Cassandra's was another room, currently not used, and across from it – another room not in use. At the end of the corridor on the right were the stairs down.

Not wasting any time Cassandra made her way to the double doors at the end of the corridor, her footsteps not making any sound thanks to the carpet covering the floor, and stopped. Listening for a few brief moments she heard someone moving inside. Mom must be up already. She knocked on the door a couple of times.

“Come in!” Came Adriana's voice from inside.

“Good morning, mom.” Cassandra greeted as she entered the large bedroom and closed the door behind her. The room looked the same as always, except for the nightgown left on the large bed in the middle- Any and all thoughts about the room left Cassandra's head the moment she saw her mother.

Adriana was a woman that – despite giving birth to four children – looked several years younger than her actual age. She had blue eyes, large D cup breasts, long straight raven hair reaching to the middle of her back, thin waist, and a heart-shaped ass. Right now she was standing in front of a full body mirror, completely naked and looking at her own reflection.

Cassandra froze just as she was about to take another step, and could not help but stare at her mother's body, especially her butt. Her cheeks flushed pink at the unexpected sight.

“Morning, dear.” Adriana greeted as she stopped looking at her own reflection and turned towards her daughter. “I'm trying to pick a dress to wear. Mind giving me a hand?”

“Um... Sure, mom, I'll be happy to.” Cassandra answered as she resumed walking, trying hard to look at her mother's face instead of her breasts – or someplace even lower than that. The older woman looked at her approaching daughter and seemed to reach a decision because she briefly nodded to herself.

“What? Is something wrong?”

“No, I was just thinking... your nightgown will only get in the way as you move around. Why don't you take it off? It's not hiding anything anyway.” Adriana suggested.

“Sure, why not...” Cassandra agreed and let her nightgown fall down to the carpeted floor. “So, what should I do?”

“Just give me your honest opinion about each dress.”

For the next short while Cassandra stood there and watched as her mother showed off several different dresses, all of them emphasizing her curves and exposing quite a bit of cleavage. Almost every time she had to struggle to keep herself from staring at any 'inappropriate' places due to the sexy poses the older woman was making.

“Let's see... I think I'll try this one next.” Adriana spoke to herself as she took a blue dress, same color as her eyes, from her wardrobe... and then dropped it. “Oops.” She bent down to pick it up, offering her daughter an excellent view of her ass and pussy. Cassandra's blush had started to subside but now returned with a vengeance, making her face bright red.

After picking up the fallen dress the older woman turned around and went back to the mirror. Though she did not comment on her daughter's red face a smirk briefly appeared on her face.

That was definitely intentional and not an accident. What is she trying to do? I know she likes to flirt with the women she paints – that's practically a second hobby for her – but she's never flirted with me or my sisters... I'm starting to get horny just by looking. If she keeps teasing me like this I'll get aroused soon.

“So, how do I look?” Adriana asked after taking her time putting on the dress.

“You look great, mom.” Cassandra answered truthfully.

“Then I think I will wear this one today. Thank you for the help, dear.”

I didn't really do anything... “Um, what about underwear?”

“I don't need any – I'm not planning to go out today.” The older woman answered as she turned to look at her naked daughter. “Say, how about I pick a dress for you? As thanks for your help. Or is there anything else I can do to show my gratitude?”

“Well, actually... I have this pearl.” Cassandra showed the small pearl she had been holding in her hand the entire time. “I don't suppose you can tell me anything about it?”

“Let me see...” Adriana moved closer to take a better look at the pearl. “I have a similar pearl – let's see if they are the same...” She moved to a small wooden chest, opened it, and after some searching took a small blue pearl from inside. She then went back to her daughter and started comparing the two pearls. “They are the same size and color... both have these small, barely noticeable, runes on them...”

“Oh, I hadn't even noticed the runes.” Cassandra admitted. “Are they the same?”

“That's what I'm trying to figure out.” Adriana kept comparing the two pearls for several minutes. “As far as I can see the runes are the same, so your pearl should be the same as mine.”

“That's good. So, what does it do? It's not just a regular pearl with random runes on it, is it?”

“No, it's not. It's an Anal Pearl of Underwater Breathing. As the name suggests it lets you breath underwater. No time limits, so you can stay underwater as long as you want. The only requirement is that it has to stay in your butt – I believe this is the reason for calling it 'Anal Pearl'. It probably won't be of much use while you're in Syrada... but you're a creative girl, so maybe you'll find some use for it that I haven't thought of.”

“I see. Thanks, mom.”

“Anything else? My offer to pick a dress for you still stands...”
