Chapter 913 912: 'Business Transaction'
"All of this... Gods above, I'd be so damn happy if I could double this and have an entire week to myself... I'd be so~ damn happy..."
I couldn't help but raise a brow as I stared at my mate, her blissful tone and slightly slack expression making me snort at how utterly captivated she was by the assembled materials in front of us, which made me feel a twinge of jealousy at how these inanimate objects were able to receive a similar loving and desired filled stare that I was accustomed to, which only grew somewhat as the Jackalkin turned to me, likely sensing that and deciding that she could have some fun teasing me as well.
"I'd even forgo sex if it meant that I could get double of all this and a week to just forge away~! That's how much I would love that~!"
"Well then you can do so."
As I turned away and let out a small huff to express my displeasure, Anput chuckled and grabbed my arm, pulling me into her embrace and resting her head on my shoulder as she whispered "But I don't have double of these materials, and we don't have a week, now do we~? So that means I have no need to forgo giving my beautiful, exquisite, unique and incredible mate the loving that she so clearly deserves, hm?"
I remained silent for a moment longer, making the Jackalkin's heart thump in her chest as she wondered if she had 'pushed' me too far with those remarks, only to let out an inaudible sigh of relief as I said "And then some, right?"
"Of course... anything you want, anything that I can get you... it can all be yours~! Of course, I might be able to be... 'motivated' to get certain difficult things, but... that shouldn't be an issue, should it?"
Peeking at her face, I raised a brow as I repeated "Anything at all?", to which she just nodded and gave my waist a squeeze, reminding me that there should be an 'incentive' or a 'reward' involved depending on what it was.
Tilting my head, I looked over the various materials in front of us before turning my gaze towards the others, who were mingling around in the camp, taking a much needed break and chatting to one another now that the other group of Demons had returned with a bountiful haul.
That was why Anput was looking over this giant collection of materials like it was her child; it was because there was just so much here of such a decent quality that any notable blacksmith would likely be unable to contain their excitement at being able to utilize any and all of the materials in front of them.
"Well... perhaps I could be convinced to purchase another special outfit for a special night when we return home? And perhaps... perhaps I could be convinced to rope Leone into being apart of that special night as well?"
I could feel Anput's excitement at that idea very clearly as she pressed herself against me even more, ensuring that I could feel just how excited she was getting as she whispered "Go on...", clearly rather keen on that idea.
Especially now that we knew Jahi was of a mind to sit back and watch for a little while, meaning that for a brief moment, Anput could be the 'head' of the group as she indulged a little in Leone and I by herself.
"All for the low, low price of a wand, perhaps? We have water attuned metals, water attuned bones, and of course... that gemstone chunk filled with Water Mana..."
I held back a grin as I peeked at her face again, watching as my mate blinked a few times before she stared at me and said "'Low, low price'? Kat, that's a rather expensive ask, you know that right..?"
"Oh? But Leone and I dressed in ceremonial garb dancing for you is something that should be valued lowly? Hmph, good to know."
"That is not what I said! I just..! Fine! Fine! I'll see if I can get it made soon..."
She let out a sigh before giving my waist another squeeze as she quietly asked "Are we talking full ceremonial garb..? Paired with the traditional dance..?"contemporary romance
Hearing how her voice was dripping with lust at this idea, I couldn't help but smirk as I turned and stared my mate in the eyes, enjoying the silver gleam that filled them as I whispered "We'll make you feel like a Sultana who just received the treasures of a lifetime..."
Anput shivered behind me as her silver eyes narrowed with glee, and she couldn't help but give me a deep kiss before whispering "This will be the best damn wand in the entire world, Kat... so let's make sure my reward is just as great, hm?"
Biting her lip, I returned her kiss and whispered back "Oh, it will be... and then, when you're fulfilled, we can all~ give Jahi that same treatment... end the night completely and utterly drained... doesn't that sound perfect?"
"It does... so go tell her, and perhaps we can start 'training' our amazing Demoness to have a tad more restraint so that she can watch for just~ a little longer than usual, hm?"
We shared a giggle before Anput separated from me, my mate giving me one last kiss and rushing towards the pile, finding the things she needed and getting to work right away, only for me to roll my eyes as I felt someone take her spot instantly.
"What's got my other puppy so energetic, hm? And what has got my murderpuppy feeling so gleeful?"
The firm, muscular arms of my Mistress and lover were wrapped around my waist, and her face was buried between my ears as she took a deep breath, enjoying herself as she waited for an answer.
"Just a... business transaction between the two of us. She makes something for me, I 'pay' her for her work. And if she does good, then she gets a rather large bonus..."
"Can I request a business transaction~? You take care of my needs, and I take care of yours... what do you say~?"
I rolled my eyes again, but I didn't stop her from pulling me into our tent and conducting a mutually beneficial transaction...
