They had over an hour before the customer flow grew and he would only take a few minutes. He just needed to reassure them about their safety.

Alaric walked into the rest area and looked at the others just sitting there downcast.

Everyone loved Bethany and seeing her get that seriously hurt really destroyed most of their moods.

" I apologize for what happened today," that was the first thing Alaric said bowing his head. It was a duty he had not fulfilled.

" It's okay Al this things happen," Celey said her voice was quieter than usual. Alaric nodded.

" This time the problem was on the guards side but I want to assure you this will be the last incident. Nothing like this will ever happen, I swear on my life," Alaric put his hand over his heart as he said it solemnly.

" I might not always be present in the estate or too busy to watch over you all but I wanted to ask if anyone wanted to leave after this incident. I'm not going to fine you for breaking the contract. So I'm giving you guys a chance to leave."

Alaric looked around but no one raised their hands . He smiled, he has finally gained all their trust.

" But Al you can't overwork yourself just for us," June said breaking the silence.

Alaric chuckled and nodded. It felt good to be cared for.

" I'm planning on putting cameras in every room," he said.

Everyone gasped in shock.

" But if they find out, we'll be doomed," Blue said as she stood up.

Alaric shook his head.

" No, you don't have to worry about that , it's going to be clocked and undetectable even for awakened," he said reassuring them. It was going to be expensive but he had enough money to throw around and still had more floating in the accounts.

Lady Marianne and Richard had basically made their brothel financially independent.

" Any questions?" He looked around but no one said anything.

" Good, and if you don't feel comfortable with a customer whether male or female don't accept their proposal and trust your instincts about a customer. If they are too forcefully scream if you can, you don't really have to endure it. That's what I wanted to tell you all. I apologize again about today."

Alaric left them to their own devices and walked back to his room. He had a lot on his plate to think about.

After settling on his bed he took out the skill card he had gotten from the dungeon and turned it over looking at it. Then he tore it apart.

SKILL CARD: CARAPACE INSTINCT.

Grade: C

Type: Passive -Defense

Rank: normal

Description:

A fleeting, hardened shell instinctively forms over your body when facing a lethal strike.

Effect:

Reduces incoming fatal damage by 60% for 1 sec.

Triggers once per battle.

Alaric was happy to get another defense skill. The system interface appeared in front of him and he clicked on the skill upgrade. Looking at his skill he wondered what to upgrade since the skill upgrade was his own choice.

With all the turmoil going on and a Bounty that had a chance of being increased he decided to upgrade his combat skill. He chose velvet dominance.

SKILL UPGRADE: Velvet Dominance Lv.3

Grade: C+

Type: Combat Control

Effect:

Your killing intent condenses into a commanding pressure. Direct confrontations force enemies to pause for a split second, lowering their reaction speed and opening them to counterattacks.

Alaric closed the system interface and fell back on the bed and covered his eyes with his arm. He planned to go and change his power status in the awakeners association.

He wanted to go to a higher dungeon which has more reward and a better training ground. D class wasn't that challenging since all the monsters were below his level.

Alaric felt from all the combat training he has done in the dungeon he was now fit to go to C level dungeon and fight those monsters. Most of the monsters from C start to gain intelligence and the higher the dungeon rank the more coherent the monsters become.

That was why he had to at least train his combat skill in a real dungeon before jumping into the fire. If he had directly raised his rank at the association he would have been sent to a C class and he felt he was not ready for a higher dungeon.

He would be facing monsters that can detect your weakness and use it against you. And he knew he had a lot of weaknesses. But right now he was confident he could fight well in a dungeon.

A knock came to the door suddenly, and he stood up and went to open the door. James was on the other side of the door.

" You have a customer," he said the moment Alaric opened the door. Alaric nodded before closing the door behind him to prepare himself.

Alaric dressed in Royal blue silk and left the room.

He walked to the room and knocked on the door. The door was pulled open and the person jumped on him. He caught her subconsciously.

It was Laura, he could identify her anywhere.

" I missed you," he whispered into her ear as he walked in and closed the door.

" Me too," she answered before taking his lips. Alaric responded to her kiss and carried her to the chair placing her on it and kneeling before her.

" Were you drinking?" He asked after separating from her. He turned to see a half drunk bottle of wine on the table .

" I wanted something alcoholic," she said and bend over to pick the unopened bottle of wine. She took a gulp and swallowed before taking another and looking at him expectantly.

" Open your mouth."

He held her cheeks and kisses the wine flowing into his mouth.

" Sweet," he said licking his lips. She took another gulp and he kissed her swallowing the contents . They continued this intimate drinking until all the wine was over.

Alaric found this particular wine tastier that day. Drinking from her felt more intimate than there usual interraction. He was already fully aroused but wasn't in a hurry to bed her

non of them were drank since the wine was too light for awakeners.

" Why are you drinking so much?" Alaric asked. Despite enjoying it Alaric knew something wasn't right with her.

" Nothing just stressed with work," she said as she spread her legs and put them on the arms of the chair. She held the back of the chair and rubbed herself on his cock while moaning softly looking up at his concerned eyes.

She loved it when he looked at her like that, that ment he cared for her enough to notice her emotions. But she wanted him enamored by her. She knew she won't be the only person in his heart but she was determined to be among most important.

She wasn't deluded enough to think she could kidnap him for herself, she already knew every woman sleeping with him and most of them were just as powerful as her in different aspects.

Hiding her determined eyes from him she took her finger and inserted into her dress pushing it into her vagina. She pumped her finger inside of her before pulling it out and rubbing her wet and sticky fingers on his lips.

He licked his lips looking at her and took her finger into his mouth and sucked on it biting light before releasing it.

" Aaah.." she suddenly moaned pulling her finger out of his mouth. Alaric had thrusted the head of his dick into her hole while she still had her underwear on .

The sensation was too different. The feeling of the clothes rubbing her insides wasn't bad but it wasn't pleasant rather. He pushed his head into her over and over until she shuddered and came spraying her juices on her underwear and his cock.

" Do you want it," he whispered to her as he rubbed her juices all over his cock looking at her.

Laura watched in fascination as his hands moved over his cock precum dripping. She brought her hand and placed it on the head of his cock and rubbed it around. He groaned the moment she touched him. Touching hesitantly as though it was something delicated.

" Rub it," Alaric said and took her hand putting it in his length with his hands over her smaller ones guilding her slowly.

Laura could feel the veins and the the blood movement in his cock every time she rubbed over it. Everytime her nails brushed over his head his cock would twitch .

She looked up at him while moving her hand faster at faster. His hair had stuck to his strained neck as he looked down at her his eyes deep and filled with desire that she knew belonged to only her.

She smiled at him her hands moving to his head and pressing a finger on his urethra. He shuddered his hands tightening on his cock before it twitched and his cum splattered on her dress in ribbons.

Laura looked at the mess and licked it tasting his cum. Her face scrunched up a little before going back to normal. Alaric laughed at her reaction.

" Don't like it?"
