Warlock Assassin

Things when back to normal ... sort of. Everyone welcomed the new additions to Luke's "harem". But no one could put up a fuss even if they originally wanted to. Luke made sure to make introductions and voice his interests to all 32 women visiting/living at Rebecca's Mansion. (Luke's 32 local ladies were comprised of 19 Human Sorcerers, 8 Enchanted Human Servents, and 5 Jinns. His distant women comprised of 3 Sirens, and 4 Jinns.) He wanted his local ladies to get along, and encourage them to develop affection for one another.

Rebecca was the only one who made a habit of arguing with Luke. While Luke was interested in hearing everyone's true feelings. Unfortunately, his 'Soul-Linked' spell passively made his women more agreeable to his fetishes. Rebecca seemed to be the only one truly immune to her 'Soul-Link' with him. Later they would discover Rebecca's mythical '3rd Eye' helped negate Luke's passive 'Harem Enslavement' influence. Rebecca had to remind herself that sometimes Luke's behavior wasn't completely his fault. He made an honest effort to give everyone freedom of choice. But 30+ women were constantly pulling him away for sex.

Wanda's words of warning to Shannon were ringing true for Luke. "The magic you choose will shape you as a person. It will become one with you. The more you use magic, the more it will shape your core believes and interests. The greatest magic-users core dogmas and philosophies are inseparable from their chosen magic." - Wanda Lightbright, Sunny Day Mall 20XX.

"Luke, I am heading to the Bank with Himari. We are finalizing the financing for the Fertility Center Project," Rebecca said walking out to the pool.

Holly and Luke were reading the same book as they floated on pool donuts.

"Roger!" Luke said not looking up.

"What are you two doing?" Rebecca asked.

"They're speed reading. They are racing to finish first. Then I am to quiz them on the contents with detailed trivia questions," Tai said sunbathing on a lawn chair.

"I see ... wait shouldn't Holly be working today?" Rebecca said recalling the Clothing Store schedule.

"Finished! Book Down!" Holly cheered dropping her book on a floating tray.

"Dam ... I was so close," Luke moaned.

"We trained Jesse and Katie to run the inventory deliveries. They're the new acting inventory clerks. And I am the New Inventory Manager. Luke is going to be working in the Fertility Center soon," Holly said paddling over to the pool's edge.

"Congrats Holly! That's great. But, I hope you're ready for the new fall lineup. Shannon and I planned for thousands of maternity shoppers," Rebecca said before pulling out her phone as it buzzed.

"I know it would be bad for sales. But I am hoping the local ladies decide to avoid shopping for new clothes. Showing more skin is always a plus, ... in my opinion," Luke said climbing out of the pool.

Rebecca, Holly, and Tai all looked at Luke.

"We all know your opinion on the matter. It's hard not to see it in action." Tai said patting her flat belly.

"Enough stalling! Hit us with the questions!" Holly said finally stepping out of the pool.

Just then Rebecca's phone buzzed again.

"That's my ride," Rebecca said turning away.

"It would be nice if Himari lived closer. Another year and Ellin and Oasis will graduate high school. Then I can convince my new lawyer to move in," Rebecca thought to herself.

After a close game of book trivia, Luke was alone sunbathing near the pool.

"I'm impressed with your speed reading, not so much with your security ..." a voice came out from nowhere.

"What?" Luke said in alarm.

But all that came out was a gasp. He couldn't move.

"Nice to meet you Astral Duke Smith, the Grand Breeder ..." a feminine voice said from every direction.

From out of nowhere, a person hooded and masked appeared with a bow. Luke assumed the figure was a woman from the voice and dark blue outfit.

"Who are you?" Luke thought into the person's mind.

"Oh my, the rumors are true! Your Telepathy is proof of your strong Mental Power. I wish I could have watched those Silly Noblewomen succumbing to your 'Music Breeding Talisman'. Most of my colleagues thought it was just a rumor. But the proof just popped into my head. A Life Wizard with 'Telepathy' and a 'Magical Moniker'. You must feel fancy with your new title. Tell me what music did you use during your 3v1 duel? You baby-makers have the strangest abilities," the dark figure said with a laugh.

Luke was taken aback by this woman's words. How did she know so much?

"Who are you?" Luke thought into the woman's head.

"Where are my manners? I am Lady Mask. Private Assassin for Hire. I always try to tell my victims before they die. The afterlife is full of assassins. I need you to herald my name. Reputations are key to finding work in this world, and especially the next," Lady Mask said with a laugh.

"You're crazy!" Luke thought struggling to move.

"Oooh Look at you, I was right to put Anti-Troll venom in my dart. Oh, don't look so surprised. My employer saw you change your height at the feast. People know you could control your anatomy. Make sure to tell the spirits of my careful research and planning," Lady Mask said walking over and pulling a small needle from Luke's leg.

"What do you want?" Luke angrily thought back.

"Want? Haven't you been listening? I am an assassin dear. You pissed off the Old Guard of rich Jinn Nobility. So I want you to die," Lady Mask said grinning.

"What will you do to my women?" Luke thought steeling himself.

"Oh, your parade of low-level sorcerers and heavily pregnant Jinn fighters? I don't know yet ... It would be a shame not to harvest their 'Soul Energy'," Lady Mask said standing.

"What of the L.A. Life Coven? You're a Warlock? You're in their territory," Luke thought fearing for his women's safety.

"Sorry, dear. We Locks don't kill and tell. I only share what I want the dead to know," Lady Masks said before the poison dart disappeared from her hand.

Luke's mind raced as his body started to burn.

"I won't die, I have Celestia's 'Soul Crystial'. But my women and my unborn children are in danger. I need to keep them safe. Even if I have to respawn," Luke thought to himself.

Just then Lady Mask grabbed Luke's hand.

"My my a suppression ring. Queen Celestia's spared no expense for her boy toy. Everyone thought your 'Setting the Mood' ability was behind the Jinn fucking spree. But maybe you influenced everyone with your aura," Lady Mask said examining the ring.

Luke suddenly hoped that his assailant would take the ring off. Maybe his 'Sorcerer's Breeding Aura' could help. But his hopes were just as quickly dashed.

"Best keep that puppy on until you're dead. Better safe than sorry when Aura's suppression is involved," Lady Mask said lowering Luke's hand.

"Shit, fuck ..., what do I have left," Luke thought before quickly reviewing his abilities.

"Okay ... I can still use my passive abilities like Telepathy. I can still use mana. Think! Okay, both 'Mental Fortress' and 'Greater Libido Sense' are useless here. 'Greater Charisma' requires me to talk and 'Greater Setting the Mood', requires me to sing or dance. ... Changing clothes with 'Arcane Dresser' can't help me, and 'Harem Enslavement' only works on my sexual partners. ... My Aura is being suppressed by my ring, and my 'Anatomy Alteration' is negated by the assassin's poison. Wait 'Daddy Jump' might get me away. But who among my baby mama's can cure the poison? ... Nectar! She is a Jinn Medic. She could help!" Luke thought in a rush.

Luke closed his eyes and tried activating his teleport ability. A moment passed and nothing happened.

"Sorry, hot stuff. Every assassin worth their salt makes sure their victims can't teleport," Lady Mask said holding up a card.

"You should be honored. These blood seals are very expensive. ... But so am I," the assassin said with a snort.

Luke had nothing left he could do except ...

In one final act of desperation, Luke focused his mind and cast 'Magical Phantom Pregnancy' on his attacker.

"What are you doing?" Lady Mask said watching Luke struggle.

While the maids and cooks transformed instantly. Luke's 9th victim of 'Celestia's Pregnancy Seal' debuff took longer.

"... what is this?" Lady Mask said grabbing her head.

"Why am I seeing us dating ... and ... mating?" Lady Mask cried pulling out a dagger.

"Fuck your mental mind games," the assassin yelled jumping on top of Luke.

Luke was helpless as Lady Mask began stabbing his chest. Time slowed as Luke felt the sudden influx of pain. All sound began to fade as Luke got tunnel vision.

"Fuck! what is happening?" Lady Mask cried out.

Luke watched as the assassin's belly grew and slowly ripped open her outfit. He could feel her ass soften as it grew and expanded in his lap. Luke smiled at the thought of owning the assassin's ass while pinned down by her growing ass cheeks.

But time got even slower ... and .... then ... everything ... when ... dark.
