Subdue the Stalwart – Quest Complete

Obtained: 1000 Experience Points

Xanthe has attained level 6!

Xanthe grinned as she collected the reward from the floating screen. A new one appeared immediately afterward.

Star Paladin Suppression – Quest Failed

She grimaced. It was a branching path, and she made her choice: let Guy escape at the cost of failing the quest Leafblade gave her. The imperials she manipulated with her dance had left her alone to search for Guy; they likely had forgotten she was there. The new magic that the affliction gifted her dances was incredible.

Averyl was lying awake on her bed when Xanthe returned to their suite. The alerted imperials must have woken her. Averyl’s eyes never moved from Xanthe. She was still naked and could find nothing to wear.

That’s because I left it in Guy’s suite.

She would sneak out to grab it, but heard the steps of searching imperials in the Inn halls. It was best to wait for them to pass. By now, the imperials she allured with her dance would snap out of the trance, report Xanthe’s involvement, and search her room. If they did that, they would find her secret tied up on the bed and kill Xanthe.

And probably the entire city too.

Averyl’s cute face was red and had been since before Xanthe returned. She had a feeling it was because the window was open. Walking to it, Xanthe noted that her view from the window gave a full perspective of the yard she and Guy stood in, naked. It also would have given Averyl a perfect view of the nude dance Xanthe performed to distract the imperials.

“You were watching me dance just now,” Xanthe said, turning to her.

“Forgive me,” Averyl said. “The men in the halls had woken me. I moved to the window to see what was going on. And I . . . I could not look away . . . Never have I seen a woman so bold . . . so confident . . . do something like that in public.”

During which, Xanthe had allowed Guy to escape. His words had tamed her distraught mind, revealing that she was acting like a slave to Leafblade and his men. Serving them drinks and food while offering her nipples for their hands to play with as she sat on their laps and stroked them, all while knowing the imperials got those services for free. The owner would not dare charge men from the empire, men who had the power to turn the city into ash without a moment’s notice. Xanthe had had enough of Holt. She was not a pleasure temple slave anymore. She would find another way to learn of the identity of the imperial general—

Averyl’s fingers touched and glided across Xanthe’s stomach, as best they could since Xanthe left Averyl tied up. Her fingertips eased slowly to Xanthe’s navel.

Xanthe pushed Averyl to the bed, climbed over her, and stripped the young fae princess of her dress. Her thin undergarments came off next and hit the floor beside the bed.
