Scheduled Consultation

Melinda entered the cafeteria to find Lynn and Xin already there, eating breakfast. She went to grab some food for herself and joined them.

As Melinda sat down next to Xin, Xin greeted her warmly, “Morning, Melinda! Tonight’s your night with Zachary, right?”

Melinda nodded while giving both women a once-over. “Yeah, though I plan to head up at noon.”

Xin placed a hand on Melinda’s thigh and started to squeeze it suggestively. “Oh?” Xin stared at Melinda’s chest, then leaned back to check out her ass. “Is that why you got your fuck me pants on? Because I’d love to get me a piece of that ass sometime.”

Melinda really wanted to reply, but her mouth just wouldn’t move. She was at least slightly mollified a moment later when Xin went scarlet as she realized what she had just said and done. Melinda could see that Xin was about to start apologizing and said, “Don’t get your panties in a twist and start apologizing all morning. I know what can happen if I wear stuff like this now, and I still chose to wear it.” Melinda then scooted a few inches away from Xin. She wanted to say more, but apparently that would qualify as protesting if she said what she wanted to.

Lynn nodded along to Melinda’s words, “Yeah, Xin, if the slut didn’t want you to fondle her, she could wear something else.” Lynn turned to Melinda, “I hope I don’t have to remind you that if you try to sleep with Zach before I get the chance to, we are going to have a fucking problem.”

Melinda nodded. “I remember. You’re going to talk to him this morning, right?”

Lynn replied, “Don’t worry, I keep my word. I apparently have a consultation scheduled with him and intend to bring up the matter with him then.”

Melinda let out a sigh of relief, hoping that Lynn’s support would at least give her a chance.

Lynn continued, “Also, I have every intention of telling him about what we both bought yesterday.”

Melinda groaned and then weakly nodded her acceptance of that fact.

Xin asked, “What are you talking about? What did you buy?”

Lynn smiled, seeing Melinda go wide-eyed. Lynn said, “Sorry, Xin, but I’m not going to tell you that. At least right now. In time, I’m sure it will come out, though.”

“Why do I have the feeling that when it comes out, I’m not going to be happy with what I learn?” Xin said accusatorially.

Lynn shrugged, “Don’t know. Just know that everything we bought yesterday had the full knowledge and consent of the affected parties. At which point is it really your place to be upset?”

Xin looked at Lynn, then Melinda, skeptically. “That depends… I’ll let it be for now. Also, when you talk with Zach, if you could make it an immediate priority to call me up there, I would really appreciate it. I’m already feeling a little randy. After my punishment lessons, I expect it to be really bad.”

Melinda looked worried. “Punishment lessons?”

Xin sighed, “For allowing Heather and Caroline to use my shower to clean the tentacle slime off of Piper yesterday. Piper wasn’t really responsive because of it.”

This was the first time Melinda had heard about that, and she looked aghast. “You can’t be serious! You’re being punished for that? How?”

“I am.” Xin nodded, “I have lessons on my oral skills.”

Melinda shook her head, “This place really is hell. It’s utter bullshit that you get punished for something like that.”

Lynn and Xin both nodded in agreement.

Lynn had finished her food and stood to leave. “I’ll see you two later, I guess.” With that, Lynn left the two at the table, with Xin having slowly moved closer to Melinda during the conversation and was once again rubbing Melinda’s thighs inappropriately.

Lynn’s workout session was once again a combination of Zumba followed by yoga. After a quick shower, she headed off to her ‘consultation’ with Zach. One unpleasant elevator ride later, she knocked on the door to Zach’s room. Zach opened the door, saying, “You’re earlier…” Zach stopped mid-sentence, realizing it wasn’t Melinda, and took a moment to recognize Lynn after her makeover. “Lynn? What happened to you?” Zach said, mostly befuddled but slightly concerned.

Lynn smiled, kept her back straight, and looked up at him. “I received a semi-mandatory makeover, Sir.” Lynn did a slight bow while putting her hand across her torso. Got to remember the etiquette training. I’m willing to bet I’m going to be judged on how I handle this meeting later.

Zach was now very alarmed, “Okay, what the hell is going on here? Why are you acting weird, Lynn? Please stop it.”

Lynn nodded, “Can I come in? I’ll explain everything.”

Zach nodded and gestured for her to enter. “Want anything to drink? I’ve found that the fridge is essentially stocked with whatever I want it to be when I open it.”

“Lemonade would be nice.”

Zach brought out a pitcher of lemonade and two glasses, pouring one for each of them. He sat down and said, “Okay, now explain what the hell is going on with you?”

“Are you aware that Xin and I have a schedule we have to follow, or we’ll get punished?”

“Vaugely. Why?”

“Yesterday, I had an appointment at the salon on my schedule. Apparently, the outfit I picked yesterday partially impacted how that appointment went. It seems you aren’t happy with the outcome, though?”

“I mean, you look stunning, but also not like you. The hair is the thing throwing me off the most.”

“The color isn’t permanent, so don’t worry about that. To continue answering your question, my greeting was something I chose to do because I received some etiquette training yesterday, and I have more of it today. I’m fairly certain I’m going to be judged on how I handle this ‘consultation’ with you during that training later. As for what I’m here to consult on, I’m not exactly sure, but you know I’m always open to helping you.”

“I do have a few things I’d like your help with. I’d also like to know more about what you’ve been up to since apparently I’m out of the loop.”

“Happy to.” Lynn smiled and took a sip of her lemonade. “So if you’re okay with it, I’d like to start with the second topic first. I’ve mostly been following my schedule each day to avoid being punished like Xin was this morning.”

“She’s being what?” Zach sounded pissed.

“Punished for helping Piper yesterday by allowing Caroline to wash a lot of the tentacle slime off Piper in our shower. She’s likely not doing very well right now, and I would recommend you request that she come to play music for the two of us, or she might end up getting punished further if she can’t complete her schedule because of her arousal.”

Zachary immediately sent a text message to Xin and got a reply a moment later.

Xin: Oh, thank you so much! OMW!

Lynn pulled out a piece of paper from her purse, something Zachary noticed she didn’t normally carry. “Here are my schedules for yesterday and today. Xin’s has been similar but not identical. She’s had music practice and has been studying each day instead of the etiquette training I’ve had. Fairly innocuous overall. Except that she also has to masturbate every night as well. This morning, however, she had oral training as a punishment.”

Zachary scrunched his face up in annoyance. “This is ridiculous. Do the others have this as well?”

Lynn shook her head, “No. Just Xin and me. Part of the Gilded Cage. We get pampered but have to do as we’re told. Ferdinand said you could alter our schedules if you don’t like.”

“Ferdinand?” Zach asked questioningly.

“Oh, the ghost butler. He won’t tell me his actual name, so I’ve been coming up with different ones. He says he can tell when I’m referring to him, no matter what name I use. Sort of interested in seeing if anything happens if I call him by his actual name.”

“Okay, so Sir RandomName is the one who is making your schedules and stuff?”

“Maybe?” Lynn shrugged her shoulders. “Could be Delilah, but he is the one to monitor if we follow them or not. I would suggest altering both our schedules so they are less onerous.”

“I’ll definitely do that. Anything else I should know that you’ve been up to?”

“Went shopping again with Melinda.” Lynn’s reply caused Zach to raise his eyebrows in surprise. Lynn just shrugged, “Zach, calm down. I still haven’t forgiven her for what she did to you, but she is truly remorseful and actually willing to back up that remorse with genuine action. I’m asking you to give her a chance.”

Zachary looked surprised. “First Heather, now Melinda? What’s going on with you? Is this your transformation causing this?”

“Screw Heather. I like her siblings, though. That’s it. Melinda though… it could be my transformation, but I agreed I would try to get you to give her a fair chance, after what she agreed to yesterday.”

“And what exactly did she agree to?” Zach asked.

Before Lynn could respond, there was a rapid, loud knocking at the door. Xin’s muffled voice could be heard through the door. “Zach, can I come in? Zach? Zach?”

Zach got up and answered the door. Xin didn’t wait for him to invite her in. She grabbed his shirt and pulled him down into a kiss, then hurried into the room and pulled out her violin. Without preamble, she began playing. It was a fast tempo right from the get-go, as Xin was clearly overcome with arousal. She made several mistakes as she was having trouble concentrating.

Xin took a deep breath after the third mistake as she felt her progress towards transferring her arousal had backslid each time she made another mistake.

Zachary retook his seat and looked at Lynn. “Is she going to be okay?”

“Her? What about us when she finishes playing? She looks like she’s practically in heat.” Lynn whispered to him.

Realizing that Lynn was right, he stood up and stopped Xin’s performance abruptly by grabbing her wrists. There was a transfer of arousal to the two of them, but as she hadn’t completed the performance, it was less than half her current arousal.

Still flush and panting, Xin asked, “Zach… why… did you stop me? I was… almost done.”

Zach really wanted to touch Xin more and possibly have her blow him, as he got a mental image of Xin fantasizing about doing just that when her arousal transferred to him. “Because I didn’t want your full arousal hitting the two of us suddenly.”

Lynn pouted as she stood up and wrapped her arms around his waist from behind. She playfully said, “Darn, and here I thought you and I were finally going to have sex.”

Zach took a deep breath so as not to do just that. Zach looked at Xin. “Are you okay to talk before we continue?”

Xin bit her lower lip but nodded. Zach removed Lynn’s arms from his waist and poured Xin some lemonade. “Here, have a drink. It might not help with the arousal, but you look exhausted.”

Xin gulped down the entire glass as she was most definitely thirsty. She poured herself another glass, drank half of that, and then finally sat down. Zach topped her drink off again and asked, “What got you like this?”

Xin’s already flushed face got even more embarrassed. “I’d rather not go into details, but it was part of my punishment for helping Piper.”

Zach nodded, “Okay. I’m not sure it’s a good idea for you to continue playing. Would you be up for lowering your arousal the other way?”

Xin considered for a moment and then nodded. She then saw Lynn scowl at her and winced slightly. Zach saw Xin’s reaction, but when he looked at Lynn, she was all smiles. Zach said, “Lynn, do you have a problem with that?”

“I had been hoping that we could do things. I genuinely wanted to help Xin, but I had hoped she would play for us and then leave.”

Zach frowned, “Lynn, I already told you I don’t just want to have sex with you. I care about you and—”

“Zachary, enough!” Lynn exclaimed, rather annoyed. “I love that you care about that. Really, I do, BUT WE ARE ON A SEX SHOW! If not for literally being kidnapped, I would have already taken you to bed. I want you! You want me! That should be enough! You promised that you would sleep with me first. Would you have resisted the urge to take Xin if I weren’t here and she had played for you? I doubt it, considering how horny I am and that wasn’t all of her arousal, and it was split between us. You need to accept that we aren’t going to get to take things slow.”

Zach pulled back in surprise, having not seen Lynn get this angry with him before.

Lynn frowned and had the grace to look slightly embarrassed at her tirade, but didn’t back down from her words. “It doesn’t need to be today, but you aren’t going to be able to wait on this. Not just because I want to do it. We’re all going to need ways to earn points. Sex is likely the easiest one, and probably worth the most, that we can actually repeat for points.”

Zachary didn’t like the fact that she was right; going slow was a luxury that they couldn’t afford. “I still want you, on my own terms and not because I got too horny to think straight because of magic.”

Lynn sighed, “Fine. What are we going to do about this now, though?”

Xin stammered, “I-I’m not re-real-ly up for sex. I was th-think-ing a lot of kissing.”

Lynn looked at Xin in disbelief. “You have to realize that isn’t going to work for several reasons, right?”

“I mean it might…” Xin didn’t sound like she believed that herself.

Lynn scoffed, “Even if it did work, it would take a long time. Melinda is going to be up here at noon. I still have things to talk to Zach about, and what about me? Do you expect me to simply sit here and watch as you kiss my boyfriend?”

“I… then what?” Xin asked, really not sure what to do.

“You can blow him, and I’ll help. If you want, I can help get you off while you blow him. Then you can scram, and I can have my own fun with Zach.”

Zach was about to say something, but was silenced with a glare from Lynn, which he interpreted as ‘Get over it already!’

Xin hesitated, and Lynn made this easy for her. “Xin, right now, you seem to at least be able to deal with the arousal. So either you can stay and put to use the lesson you just went through, or you can go, and I’ll stop by your practice later.”

Xin bit her lip and closed her eyes. A moment later, she stood up. “Thank you both for allowing me to play for you.” She then grabbed her violin and ran from the room before Zach could say anything.

Zach then turned to Lynn, “What the hell was that? Lynn, you don’t get to make those sorts of decisions for her or me!”

Lynn let out an exasperated sigh, “Zach, I simply sped things along. What would you have done differently? Would you have indulged her request to simply make out for an extended period of time in front of me? I got hit with the same dose of arousal as you did. Were you just expecting me to sit here and stew?”

“I…” Zach didn’t know what he had expected to happen. “It doesn’t change the fact you don’t get to decide these things for me.”

“Zach, do you consider us a couple?” Lynn asked matter of factly. “I thought after the first night here, after we confessed our feelings for one another, that is what we were. Especially with all the rest of this shit going on.”

Zach frowned and then tersely said, “Yeah, I do. That—”

Lynn cut him off, finishing his sentence, “Means I do get a say in things like that. If I’m your girlfriend, I do get input on what you do with the others while I’m present, at a minimum. That’s me being generous and accepting the fucked up situation we’re in and adapting to it. If it weren’t for this fucked up show, you and her doing anything together would be a nonstarter. Now, if you had an issue with Xin or me doing what I suggested with you, I’ll apologize for assuming that was okay. But I won’t apologize for telling her that doing things with my boyfriend, especially while I’m present, is at least to some degree happening on my terms.”

Lynn let out a huff when she was done and looked away from Zach, with her arms crossed and a defiant look on her face.

Zach pursed his lips and took a moment to collect his thoughts. “Lynn…” He started and stopped, not sure how to approach this. “Things aren’t going to be your way or the highway here. I need you to understand that.”

Zach waited for her to respond, but she didn’t. So he pressed, “Lynn, did you hear me?”

Lynn grumbled, “Yes, I heard you. I also know that. I’m not trying to dictate that you can’t do anything with the others without my approval. I understand that.”

“Good, because I already told you that wasn’t going to be the case on the first night. I’ll concede that you were right that you do get some say, though. Especially, as you said, when you are present.”

“Thank you.” Lynn stood up and placed both hands on the table, leaning over it so as to let her cleavage dangle, as she had left an extra button undone. She was also pleased to see that Zach actually seemed to notice she had done it as well. “Now! Are we going to have hot makeup sex or what? Because I’m still really fucking horny.”

Zach stood up and went around the table. Lynn turned to face him as he did. He grabbed her hand and led her to the bed. Lynn’s eyes went wide with excitement, and she eagerly followed after him, practically jumping onto the bed, eager for what was to come.

Zach climbed on top of her and held her face, caressing her cheek as he pulled her into a tender kiss. A kiss that unleashed the desire in Lynn as she returned it passionately, as she slid her fingers through his hair, and her tongue tussled with his.

Her other hand roamed down his back, and when it reached his ass, it started to slide to the front of his pants. Zach grabbed both of her wrists, stopping Lynn, and pinned them to the bed above her head. She squirmed beneath him as he continued to kiss her. He pulled his face away while keeping her pinned to catch his breath.

Lynn panted, “Please don’t stop. I want this! I want you!”

“I already told you, I’m not rushing this. I want to take my sweet time and savour the experience.” He leaned down and kissed her neck several times, causing Lynn to let out a moan as she arched her back.

“Please.” Lynn pleaded. “Please, Zach.”

“No, but that doesn’t mean I want to stop either.”

“Just don’t leave me frustrated, please.” She begged.

“Oh, don’t worry, I promise you’ll get off. In fact, I’m ordering you to climax when I do.” Zach then released Lynn’s wrists and rolled off her while unbuttoning his pants. Lynn didn’t need further invitation and helped strip his pants and underwear off. She took a moment and stared at his erection, licking her lips.

She noticed Zach watching her carefully. She was both happy and annoyed. Mostly because this felt like a test, almost to see if she’d respect his wishes. She didn’t wait for long as she began licking his cock. She was kneeling beside him, about to take him into her mouth, when he reached out and pulled one of her legs towards and over him. Then he pulled down her panties while pushing up her skirt. She lowered her entire body as she began to blow him with vigor, to make it easier for him to reciprocate. Their handling of each other were opposites: she zealous while he cautious; She aggressive, while he tender. Lynn didn’t care anymore that this wasn’t exactly what she had wanted. The only thing that mattered anymore was that she and Zach were together and pleasuring one another.

As Zach slid his fingers inside her pussy, her eyes rolled back in pleasure, but she didn’t stop sucking him. It wasn’t long until they both came, thanks to Zach’s order. As soon as Lynn felt his hot, sticky load in her mouth, her legs trembled as she climaxed as well. She was about to continue for a round two, but Zach tapped her on the thigh a few times.

Zach let out a little breathily, “Lynn, we can continue another time. I believe you said you have more to talk to me about.”

Lynn closed her eyes in annoyance, not that Zach could currently see her face, and sighed. Then she got off of him rather reluctantly. She complained, “I don’t know why you even have that stamina increase if you aren’t going to use it.”

“You act like that wasn’t using it,” Zach said defensively. “Assuming I’m giving Melinda a chance as you requested, things could very well happen again in a few hours.”

“Just don’t hate fuck her tonight,” Lynn said rather seriously. “I mean it, Zach. If you screw any of the others before me, I’m going to be pissed.”

“I’m aware. I’d just like at least one real date before sleeping together.”

Lynn perked up at that. “So I’m hearing that I need to just wow you on a date… hmmm, okay, that’s doable.” I hope… not that I’ve ever been on a date…

“Glad to hear it.” Zach replied, “Now what else did we have to talk about?” Zach started putting his underwear and pants back on.

“Well, I figured I’d tell you about what Melinda and I bought at the shop yesterday. I also wanted to check in with you about what you are planning on doing about her this afternoon.”

“Okay.” Zach nodded back towards the table, and Lynn begrudgingly followed him over there after putting her own panties back on. Sitting down, he asked, “So what’d you buy and why’s it important?”

“Well, the store has a lot of things, not just clothes. Delilah mentioned that all the last-place transformations would be available for purchase in the store. What she didn’t mention was that there were other transformations as well.”

“You willingly bought more transformations?!” Zach asked, flabbergasted.

“Yes.” Lynn nodded, prompting a shocked look to appear on Zach’s face. “Among other things…” Lynn paused to let Zach absorb that, then continued. “Melinda has two additions: one is a change to her original transformation, and the other is new. The new one allows anyone else in the harem to stick her with one of their transformations temporarily. There are some caveats, but that’s what it does.”

Zach figured those caveats were rather important and knew he could see the other transformations on the women’s status pages, so he got out his phone and navigated to Melinda’s page. Seeing both the new transformation and the upgrade to her current one.

Take This!: Other members of the Harem will be able to transfer one of their transformations temporarily to Melinda. Only one transformation can be given to her at a time, and it stays with Melinda for twenty-four hours or until it is taken back by the owner. An individual must wait, however long Melinda holds their transformation, before they can give her a new transformation. [Sabotage]

HELLO NURSE!: Melinda will fill out a sexy nurse outfit far better now. Her figure will be enhanced, and her hair will grow out to bombshell proportions. She will also either need to wear a sexy nurse outfit or get used to regular catcalling, leering, and even the occasional groping, as others will involuntarily do those things, and she won’t be able to protest. [Nurse] Upgrade: Melinda will now find any attention on her new form rather arousing.

Zach looked up over the rims of his glasses and asked, “Lynn, why would Melinda buy these things for herself?” Zach’s tone made it clear he wasn’t pleased.

“As I began to explain earlier, Melinda wanted my help. She made a deal with me. Part of that deal was that I could spend her or my BP to buy anything for the two of us I wanted to. I wanted to see what the upgrades were like, since they are random. As for the other option… That was a combination of things.”

“Such as?” Zach growled, startling Lynn.

“Why are you upset, Zach?” Lynn truly didn’t understand.

“Answer my question.”

“I need to push the others, Zach. This was my way of doing it with Melinda. I also wanted to punish her for hurting you as she did.”

“It isn’t your place to do that!” Zach said angrily.

Lynn stood up, slamming her hands on the table. “LIKE HELL IT ISN’T! I’m your best friend and have been for years! She hurt someone I love! I wanted payback. I had to watch my best friend suffer for years because of her. I helped take care of you in the aftermath of what she did. It wasn’t easy watching you slip into severe depression. This wasn’t about getting **** in your place; this was my punishment to her.”

“Lynn…” Zach closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He didn’t open them as he spoke, “You’re right, you are my best friend. You’ve been there for me whenever I’ve needed you. That means the world to me. Which is why I’m both upset with you and worried for you. You’ve been acting really differently these past few days. I’m hoping it is a combination of the absurdity of this situation and your transformation causing this.” Zach opened his eyes and looked directly at Lynn. “Lynn, this isn’t like you. I want my friend back. Until then, please leave.” Zach extended his arm towards the door.

“Zach, I—”

“Not now, Lynn.” He gestured towards the door again.

Lynn looked devastated. She rose slowly and walked even more slowly towards the door. When she reached the door, she turned and said, “I’m sorry, Zach. Please don’t forget to modify Xin’s schedule.” Then she left the room without another word.

Zach rubbed the bridge of his nose and let out an exasperated sigh. Lynn, please come back to me. I need you to make it through this. Zach figured he should see what he could do about the schedules, as he did have some more time to kill.
