I'm not sure if it was just because of the placebo effect but I was starting to feel hot down there as well.

I believe that it might just be due to the fact that they screwed with the air conditioning to make it feel like the heat was tied to arousal when in reality, I might just be feeling hot from the heat and nothing more.

Well, it's making me want to take my clothes off though… And we've been walking for quite a while already with no end to this place in sight…

Ries was still unconscious and Amber had taken over carrying her over her shoulder like she was a bag of potatoes.

"How long have we been walking?" I asked.

"About ten minutes," Lea answered.

Wait, really? Only ten minutes? It felt like an hour already…

Then again, I guess the fact that we're still in the exhibition area where the scenery was pretty much the same the entire time contributed to that feeling.

Like every few steps it was just someone having sex with someone else.

The only good thing was that the sight of Ries being carried on Amber's shoulder seemed to dissuade pretty much everyone else from approaching us so there's that I guess?

We were simply following the paths at this point and hoping it would lead us to a more secluded area of this hall.

We turned another corner and that seemed to lead us to a new section of the hall where the stalls changed into proper buildings.

I realised that this was basically the red light district of this place and there were various people trying to draw in customers that were walking in between the buildings.

Under normal circumstances, this would be a terrible place for us but I actually got an idea for this.

"Where's the nearest building we can go to rent a room or something?" I asked.

Both Amber and Lea seemed to realise what I had in mind and began looking around us to find a place for us.

Hey, there was no rule against us just finding a room and waiting out the time as long as we're still inside this district right?

It wasn't even that hard to find a place offering a room for visitors to rent with the intention to have sex in.

We found a relatively nice building where we requested to rent the room for four hours and was quickly granted access to it.

I even made sure to ask if the room was secure and the clerk at the counter, who was literally wearing nothing but a string bikini and a small cap on her head, assured me that the rooms were soundproof and had a lock on the doors.

When I was making payment, which was dirt cheap at merely forty Credits by the way, I noticed she was bouncing up and down her chair which initially made me think that she was feeling restless until I heard the soft squelching sounds coming from between her legs, clueing me in as to what she was actually sitting on.

I decided not to comment on it and hurriedly took my group up to the room we rented.

Midori followed us up the stairs and I decided to ask her to make sure, "Are the rooms protected from the aphrodisiac gas?"

"No."

Ah, figured.

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

Well, not really a problem anyway since even if we were to have sex, we would be touching each other instead of anyone else anyway so no problem!

We entered the room and I was expecting Midori to stay outside but she came through the door with us.

"You're not staying outside?" I asked.

"I have to make sure that you do not run away."

I raised an eyebrow at her, "Isn't there only one exit out of the room anyway?"

"That is irrelevant."

Hmm… I guess she was instructed to just keep an eye on us at all times no matter where we go.

Deciding that it didn't matter, I turned to see Amber dropping Ries on the bed before she started to explore the rest of the room.

"Hey, not too bad I think. For the price that we paid, I was expecting some kind of sleazy motel room that's even worse than the one we stayed back at Denibi."

Unbidden, Midori actually started to explain, "Quality is one of our top priorities in this station. Even for things like this, we would ensure the best service is provided."

Lea gave her a look, "That's the most I've heard you speak since we met."

The woman clamped her mouth shut and said nothing more, opting to stand by the door silently.

I heard the whisper of clothes and I turned to see Amber shedding off her clothes and letting them drop to the ground, leaving her standing there in nothing but her stockings and heels.

My eyes were immediately drawn to her boobs as I watched them bounce from her walking towards me.

"Like what you see Tera? Because I think you're really overdressed right now~ So why don't we fix that?"

I gulped, "Wait… Amber… The aphrodisiac is affecting you isn't it?"

She took another step towards me and closed the distance between us so that our boobs were pressing against each other, a mischievous smile materialising on her face.

"So what if it is? Actually, yeah, it is~ Do you know how hard I was holding back myself from jumping on you ever since we got here? There's nothing stopping us from fucking right?"

I didn't get to answer before she moved the rest of the way and captured my lips in a deep kiss, her tongue pushing past my lips to wrap itself around mine.

I kissed her back before I even realised what I was doing, an effect of the aphrodisiac for sure.

We kissed for a good long minute before our lips parted, a bridge of saliva still connecting between us before it inevitably broke as we moved further apart.

That was when I heard another set of clothes hitting the floor and I turned to see Lea standing there, dressed in absolutely nothing.

It wouldn't be the first time that she watched us have sex while pleasuring herself so that wasn't a surprise.

What was unexpected was the Alv approaching us and actually getting up close to me.

"Captain… I can't wait anymore."

Eh? No wait…

I held up a hand, "Is the aphrodisiac affecting you as well?"

"It might, I do not know. But I at least still feel completely aware of my actions right now. I wish to confess to you before I lose myself."

"Confess to me about what?"

"That I wish to be your slave forever."

I blinked at her.

Wait… Ok… I was actually expecting her to confess something like she loved me or something, not this.

As I said, I wasn't stupid. I knew that she was at least interested in me in a certain sense but I didn't feel right pursuing her when I had Amber already.

So I acted dumb when she said she wanted to confess to me to give her a last chance to back out in case she had second thoughts.

But that was the last thing I expected her to confess about.

I stepped back from the two of them, "Wait, wait… Calm down… Lea, you know you can buy your freedom already, right? You've earned more than enough to buy back your freedom."

"And I have no wish to buy my own freedom back, Captain. Please let me remain as your slave for the rest of my life."

"But… Why? I don't understand? Isn't it better if you are free of your slave status?"

"Not for me, Captain… I wish to always maintain the status of being your slave."

I was having a hard time understanding her decision but if that was what she really wanted… I suppose I have no reason to reject her?

"Umm… Ok? But… Are you really sure about this?"

"I am sure, Captain. I had already decided on this a while ago but never decided when I would tell you."

"Wait, since when?"

"More than a month ago, Captain."

A month ago? I don't remember doing anything significant to make her decide something like this a month ago…

"That long ago?" I asked.

"Yes, Captain."

"I… I see… I'm guessing just roleplaying as a slave is not enough for you?"

"No, Captain."

"May I ask why?"

"I wish to submit myself to you, Captain. No… May I call you Mistress from now on?"

Amber leaned over, "Ohhh… She's a kinky one~"

Ok… Something tells me that this might just be a fetish of hers…

I just want to confirm something else though…

"Do you… Love me?"

Without even missing a beat, she answered me immediately.

"Yes. And if I am allowed to, Mistress, please let me join in on your intercourse sessions. I would very much like to be one of your harem members."

"You're not just saying that because you're affected by the aphrodisiacs, are you?"

"No, Mistress. It is something that I have wished for a long time now. Thus… May I join you and Amber in your lovemaking sessions as a direct participant instead of a spectator from now on?"

At this point… What else could I say except for yes?
