The dinner finished pleasantly despite the strange beginning the Queen forced. I did my best to ighe empty seat at the head of the table and just ehe versation with the rest of the table. I couldn't talk much with my harem; too many noble families separated us. But that is fihey'll all be my partners during the dang. Instead I got to know my supports better. Quintel and Fluvis weren't the only ones weling new member to their families. A baroness actually had each of her three wives and herself pregnant at the same time. We focused on the happy side of life for the dinner. In the ing months we'll work on the problems their nds face.

  There are no special rules for the end of a meal. When you're full and ready for a new activity, you just stand up and walk away. The other tables were the first to clear out. Servers quickly ed the tables and moved them out of the ballroom. Slowly, the main table started to empty out until I was done. Everyo soon after me, letting the st table be brought out, leaving plenty of room for the dang.

  The band had started warming up during the dinner, so ohe st table was cleared, we were ready to begin the fun. I didn't o announything; everyone here is old enough to know how dang at these parties works. The band starts up the intro song, and I seary first partner. I decided to start with Aurora; she gave up the most to join me. I should show her my appreciation.

  I find her hugging her daughter, a nervous look on her face. Did something happen during dinner?

  "Hello, Aurora. Is everything ok? You look worried," I ask, catg the older woman off guard.

  "Oh, yes. I just know I'm going to be dang with young girls. I'm not as agile as I once was. Even one pregnancy will wear on your body."

  "Haha, don't worry. We're here to have fun a closer. e, no one will dare think bad about you when you dah me," I say, grabbing the worried woman. With my rge heels, she just makes it to my tits. She only has an inch or so heel. I'll o get her fidence up before Alzi joins. She'll never recover when she sees Alzi dang i or nine-inch heels.

  "I'm honored, Princess," her voice wavering as she follows me to the hardwood portion of the floor. Most of the women have found partners, but the few meill being fought over as the band starts to wind down to py the first dance song.

  Ballroom dang has a few different variations: slow and deliberate to allow versatioween partners, quicker pace for just having fun, and, st, showing off. We will only have the first two today; there is o stir petitioween my supporters this early. Mainly, it will be the slow and deliberate pace that allows me to talk to the new family members, with the other spliced in to keep up the mood.

  Aurora calms dowhe band starts the dance. I guess she was worried about the fast variations. Slower songs are easier to dao; the focus is more on the versation than the dance. I offer her my hand and lead her out wheakes it. Her skin is soft and well cared for. I'm guessing her main job was to raise the kids. On the floor, we turn to each other and begin our slow rock with a few steps every couple of bars of music.

  I bring the woman close enough to smell her shampoo. It smells like jasmih a hint of roses. Her head fits between my and breast. My breast actually rests a little on its own, like a little shelf. Alzi is a lucky girl, especially if her daughter grows like her mother.

  "Aurora, why did you give up your position?"

  "I believe I answered that before You Highness. It has pained me not to have this aura be used. Physical aal pain. When the opportunity came, I had no choie or my daughter."

  "Oh, I didn't realize it was hurting you so much. I'll try to get you some time with her before she es here. We still have a few months before I pick her up."

  "There is no need, yhness. I already feel the pain subsiding. The Goddess must see that I'm about to use her gift correctly now. I'll wait a her with the rest of the family."

  "As you wish. Let me know if the pain es back or tihere is no need for you to fight through it. I'm gd I provide a way for you and your daughter to live fortably."

  "Thank you."

  "We never got to your affinity."

  "Yes, my affinity mattered less than my aura, I felt. My affinity is growth. Without a breeder, I'm not able to increase the growth of levels, but I'm great in a garden and watch over the kids. All my old family kids had an affinity, and most are on track to overe the parent's csses soon. Unfortunately, only my daughter hasn't married, so they couldn't offer any to serve beside her. But I think she and I are enough from our family."

  "Most certainly. You two will be some of my most treasured servants for Alzi."

  "Thank you," she mumbles, resting her head on my shoulder. We finish the dan silence, enjoying each other's presence.

  We get a little break after the song to find our partner. I choose the pregnant angel Isda. She spent time with Alzi in a very different manner, and I want to know more about that night. I the little girl in a tight hug and drag her into the middle of the dance floor. She was docile. Someone must have hinted I was behind her for her to let a random woman drag her onto the dance floor.

  "So, Alzi got ynant?" I whisper into her ear. "Tell me about it, I only sent girls to get a massage from her. Hoending a night with my future seed."

  "Yhness, you o be careful with pregnant women. Surprises aren't good for the kids," she dares to tease back as we unravel so we dance correctly. "But I think my night with her was a very different experieo most. I let her dominate me. In fact, I gave her ris; well, besides, she o get me pregnant, fuck me all night, and use her actives."

  "Strange asking a brothel girl to break you in like that. I'm surprised you made it ba one piece. My sources say she's rge between the legs."

  "Yes, her aura and touch work well to overwhelm any pain you feel when she ravages you. Holy I would reend giving it a try. It was areme experience, but one I 't wait to gh again. I thought I would never get the ce to be so thhly used again."

  "You're a strange girl. Asking for a sve to e and treat you like her little bitch. Sure, you have the height to py the part, but you have plenty of strength and power. The few nobles I hear about only submit to their wives, and evehey aren't willing to go so far."

  "I think that is only because they don't dare tell aside the family about it. If I wasn't marrying you, Princess, I wouldn't let you know how far I let her go. In the bedroom, if Alzi gives me a and, I'll follow it or expect her to punish me for disobedience. I wouldn't have it any other way. She's kind, g, and the only woman I would trust to have that much trol over me. Even when her colr falls off, I'll be hers to and sexually."

  "You're doing a surprisingly good job ving me to give this a shot. It'll have to be several years iure but maybe just maybe I'll let her have that trol."

  "Don't worry. You're the head of the family, the future Queen. What you say goes outside the bedroom. She did give me a massage. I reeing it as soon as you . It did wonders for me. For a warrior, it must be life-ging."

  "Elizabethe agrees with that belief. I'm gd to hear it firmed."

  We moved on to less sexually charged topics. Mainly her time growing up. She spent most of it learning to be a head maid for some family. A great pickup for managing my household. Alzi seems to be gathering a lot of powerful women around her, even if many just spend a single night with her. tess's family, Dutchess, this angel, and I've heard the Chavarelli family owe her for an i in the brothel. I hope I use that t them over to my camp. I know they aren't happy with my eldest sister right now. Hopefully, a little nudge push them behind me.

  is the first fast song. I y old friend from my travels. The other sword fighter, the wind mage, couldn't make it tonight due to an emergency happening in her family's nds. She had on a slight smile that only those who have known her for years would know is her smiling. It took some ving for her to marry me with Alzi. Alzi broke through that hard shell of hers and even got her horny enough to fuck. Elizabethe Barton wasn't a happy girl learning. She was tricked into it. But she likes me a little too much to let Alzi keep her from me. It'll be fun when I throw Alzi into her bed. She hates to talk and dance, feeling it takes away from the art, so she is an easy choice for this song.

  We go twirling about on the dance floor. Two muscur warriors spinning with little care. It does wonders in helping me fet about my Mothers stupid little fug interruption. This night wasn't perfect, but it has beey fug good.
