"Once again, if you require a merchant or just any help in the future, do contact us at any of our branches, Lady Aster. It's the least I could do for you," Malcolm bowed before leaving with his daughter.

"What are we going to do now, Mistress?" Katsuki asked.

"Now… We go and find my Mother and get you some new clothes."

I was still thinking of where I should go to start finding her when I felt something soft envelop the back of my head.

"Ufufufu~ I leave my little one alone and she already got herself another girl~ As expected of my child!"

"How long have you been following us, Mommy?" I sighed, somehow not even surprised that she appeared here. I had a feeling she might have already been following me around since a while ago.

On the other hand, Katsuki actually jumped in surprise and even lowered herself into a combat stance, barely stopping herself from attacking Mother when she heard my words.

"Ara ara? Ever since you entered the city of course, ufufufu~"

"Unnn… Katsuki, this is my Mother. Mommy, this is my new slave, Katsuki."

Katsuki quickly bowed, "Ni… Nice to meet you… Madam…"

"Ufufu~ A cute one aren't you? Judging by your actions, you haven't been trained on how to serve, have you?"

The Inugami girl shook her head quickly, "No, Madam…"

"Ara? Then we should fix that~ But first, before we go clothes shopping, I suppose both of you can use a bath!"

We were thus dragged away by Mother to another part of the city where it was obviously made for the more wealthy inhabitants.

It was easy to tell since everyone around was dressed expensively and I most definitely stood out while wearing my armour and weapons.

However, because Mother was also dressed like them, no one even batted an eye at us.

We eventually came to a large building that had the sign "Dragon Roost", which I guessed was an inn. What's with this place and their fixation with dragons?

Mother took us by the hand and pulled us through the entrance, ignoring the staff that welcomed us as we stepped foot inside.

We went straight up the stairs until we reached the top floor where there was only a single set of double doors at the end of the corridor.

Mother took out a set of keys from within her bosoms and unlocked the door, pushing us in after her and locking the doors behind us.

She then guided us through another door which brought us to the bathroom before spinning us around to face her.

"Fufufu~ Your first lesson, little Katsuki, is that your Mistress should not wash herself! Therefore, you should be helping my little one get clean! Now before that, you can go ahead and start stripping her!"

"Mommy… Is this a good idea? It's her first day…"

Unexpectedly, Katsuki turned to me, "Please let me serve you, Mistress! I will not disappoint you!"

I'm not too worried about that since I doubt you can fail too badly in washing someone… But I guess it's better to just rip off the bandage right now so we don't need to deal with any awkwardness later.

By that, I mean letting her know I'm a futa.

I nodded at Katsuki and she began to start unfastening the straps that held my armour together, taking them off one by one with her dexterous fingers.

It was easy to see she knew her way around armours with how quickly she was stripping me since I'm sure she had to wear them for her own practice as well.

Very soon, my breasts bounced free after she unclipped my bra, the Inugami girl gasping at the sight before recovering herself.

Seriously though, even at this size my jugs were giving me back aches and I'm really hoping they don't grow to full size until I receive the "Weightless" lewd boon that helps me deal with this problem.

Mother was watching her closely as she pulled my boots off me before moving on to my pants. Her fingers unbuckled my belt before she pulled down my pants, coming face to face with the thing in between my legs.

"Oh… Mistress is a futa?"

I nodded.

"I see…"

That was all she said before she went back to take off the rest of my clothes, not even giving my manhood a second glance.

Huh… I guess I really am the weird one here. I guess to the locals, futas really just aren't that big of a deal.

Once I was naked, Katsuki then stripped herself which was basically just her pulling off the rag over her head and she was done.

While I had been distracted by Katsuki, it seems Mother had also stripped herself and was fully intending to join us in the bath.

Mother let me sit by the side so that she could wash Katsuki first, both so that she would be clean before she washed me and also Mother could show her how it's done first.

Mother first started with her hair, carefully using a pail to pour water over her head before soaping it up.

No, I'm not sure what the soap is made out of and I kind of suspect that an Off-Worlder might have invented it.

Mother instructed her on each step of the washing process, even telling her how much pressure she should be using to wash my hair.

Once Mother was done with her hair, she went ahead to wash the rest of her body including her front, instructing her exactly how she should be washing me.

"Fufufu~ All done! Now let's see you wash my little one!"

Katsuki obeyed and brought over her own pail of water and settled herself behind me.

"Ummm… May I wash you, Mistress?" She asked.

Not sure why she even needed to ask but I gave her my assent anyway.

"Mistress's hair is so smooth…" Katsuki marvelled while running her fingers through my hair.

"Ufufufu~ It is, isn't it? It will be up to you to maintain it after today~" Mother giggled.

Warm water was poured over my head before she started to work my hair first.

Mother continued to direct her in how to wash my hair, reminding her about exactly how much force to use and how she should be positioning her hands just to take care of my hair.

Once that was done and the soap was rinsed away, she began scrubbing away on my back.

It didn't take long for that to be done and she began washing my front as well, still being directed by Mother.

I also need to say this, I'm in a bath, completely naked with two other women. Katsuki may still not be developed but Mother most certainly was. Coupled with the fact that I was being scrubbed by another girl, there was definitely some kind of stimulation there.

What I'm trying to say is the fact that I was completely erect was perfectly normal.

Katsuki paused when she saw it standing in front of her, though it was more from surprise rather than from disgust.

"Ufufufu~ If my little one allows you to in the future, I suppose you could also help her to relieve that~" Mother giggled.

Both of us blushed but Katsuki quickly went back to washing me, trying to preserve as much decorum as she could.

Her inexperience clearly showed and she was understandably nervous about the whole thing, but with Mother's guidance, I was now squeaky clean.

The three of us then moved to the bath and our position was similar to my bath time with Ardi and Odeta, except the bathtub here was much larger than ours at home.

"Am I really allowed to be here?" Katsuki muttered. "I don't think slaves usually bathe with their mistresses…"

Ah, this would be the perfect time for me to ask Mother about this.

"Mother… Would it be ok for us to free her from her slave status?"

"Ara ara? What do you think of that, little Katsuki?"

Katsuki gasped and turned back to look at me, "Did I do something wrong Mistress? Is that why I'm being abandoned?"

"No, no," I quickly assured her. "I just felt maybe you might feel better if you don't have a collar around your neck."

She sighed in relief, "Ah… Umm… If it's ok… Could I remain as Mistress Aster's slave for now?"

"Eh? Any reason why?"

"In… In case my family were to find me again… They might overlook the fact that I'm serving Mistress because I am your slave."

You know… Before this, I wasn't too worried but after you have mentioned your family so many times I have a feeling they're going to show up any day now…

I tilted my head at her, "But would this actually prevent your family from doing anything? If they would really be upset that you're serving someone else, I doubt they would simply let it go if they knew you were enslaved."

"I… I suppose not… But I do not wish to be free… At least not now…"

"Hmmm… Could I ask why?"

She hesitated, "I… I think… I feel safe to know that I am Mistress's property…"

Ah… She's basically been leashed by her family all this time and the feeling of being free is scary for her. Thus, the collar actually makes her feel secure and safe instead of being restrictive in her eyes.

Oh well, if that's what she wants, I won't force her to accept it either.

But still, I don't like calling her a slave…

"How about… Instead of being my slave, you become my exclusive maid?" I suggested.

Her eyes widened, "A maid? Me? Are you sure, Mistress?"

"Eh? Why not?"

"Ufufufu~ A maid's position is quite high up especially if it's the personal maid of the heir of the house, my little one. She would pretty much be your right hand woman~"

"I see nothing wrong with that?"

"Oh my, do you hear that Katsuki? What do you say to my child's trust in you?"

Katsuki leapt out from the bath and went straight into a dogeza, "This Katsuki swears to serve Mistress for as long as I live!"

Errr… Is assigning her as my personal maid really that big of a deal?

Also… Just how important is our family Mother? I was born in a cave and grew up in what could basically be described as a farmhouse… When are you going to tell me these things?
