Book 2: Chapter 7

“M-master! Master?”

“My love, snap out of it.”

“Hah?” I stop and look down.

I'm balls deep in Daisy’s ass. The other two sisters seem to be unconscious, as is Daisy. I have her bent over a couch as I violate her. However, how I made it to that situation is a little fuzzy.

“What’s going on?” I respond casually, slapping Daisy’s ass once for good measure as I pull out.

As I turn, I realize all the girls are standing at the door looking worried. Only Millie and Grimhilde enter the room. It is Grimhilde who eyes me up and down first before talking.

“I detected a powerful curse. At first, I thought it was my love playing games on his staff again, you certainly take delight in punishing the maids, but when I looked into your eyes while you were plowing Denise, they didn’t seem cruel enough.”

"That's right, Master is much more sadistic! You were being way too gentle!" 

Right! Denise. That was the name! And the spared yellow-haired one that was standing over her sisters trying to clean them up was May. Wait, what did she mean cruel enough? I'm plenty gentle! And worse, May is nodding! I give May a glare. I’ll give her two-fold what I gave her sisters.

“Yes, that’s the look. I’m relieved master is back.” Millie says pointing at my face.

I immediately school my features and pretend I didn’t hear anything.

“So, I take it the curse is gone?” I change the subject.

“Yes, I’ve managed to remove the curse. However, who put it here?”

I frown for a second. None of my alarms have been triggered, so who could set a trap? The conclusion I jumped to, was a conclusion I didn’t like. Did one of the girls here do it? Perhaps it was payback for some slight I did, but I can’t imagine why any of these girls would be angry at me. Besides rape, sexual torture, blackmail, and manipulation, what did I ever do to deserve being attacked with a curse?

I go over the house one more time with a carefully designed spell. No ghosts. The number of people in the home equaled the number of harem members I had. There was no doubt that someone in the harem was a traitor.

“What’s going on with her?” I ask, nodding to someone outside the door.

That someone is Jasmine, who seemed to be gagged and tied up with rope.

Grimhilde shrugs. “After learning the nature of this curse, Jasmine tried to join you in the room saying something about having you take her one way or another. We didn’t want her to potentially be hurt so we had to tie her up to keep her from jumping in.”

“Good decision!” I give the harem a thumbs up, and they all smile at my praise.

However, I'm secretly sweating at how close things got. I already set off one trap. If I set off two in a row, I’d go to places I couldn’t return from.

“Well, things are resolved now. Untie her and have her make a meal. I want everyone in the living room. We’re going to have a family meeting.”

“Ah, fun!” Ariel starts pulling off her dress.

“No, Ariel! Talking. Not those kind of family meetings.”

Ariel looks disappointed as she puts her dress back on while the other girls gave her a wry look. I eye the girls carefully as they walk down the hallway. Someone had decided to put up a deliberate curse. Of course, no one got hurt and I’ve already added a curse-proof, poison-proof, and illusion-proof skill to my repertoire, so this wouldn’t be a situation that would be repeated, but it still angered me that I could still be taken off-guard in this world.

Of course, given my other skills, I’d have survived easily and kept pounding away until the curse ended, but I could have seriously injured one of the girls in that state. I won’t be able to forgive myself if I do more than fuck them to exhaustion.

For the first time since I ended up in this world, I'm slightly pissed.
