NOVPUB"Stupid, sexy Apollo, pranking me like that. It is not my fault I was sexually unfulfilled my whole life? Bringing up my stupid past when he is my entire future... I'll get my master back for this, just you wait."
Kathrine had to leave the club for a moment as she was mortified by Apollo's prank. She was beyond relieved that no one had brought up her past to Apollo in detail, but the past it was brought up left her feeling sick.
She wasn't that woman anymore, Apollo changed her. She felt true love and that was long before her enslavement to him, this was a gift to be cherished, Being tied to another's soul was so intimate...
Just remembering this simple fact cheered her up though. She would always be Apollo's from this day until her last. That was to be cherished. Since she was feeling better, she was about to return to the club as she was already feeling better, her communicator began chiming.
All the positivity she had recharged herself with, drained from her body like a dam had been destroyed, as she looked at who was calling her, alongside the three dozen missed calls... With a heavy breath, she braced herself for the middle name treatment and answered the communicator.
"Kathrine Bianca Hyllus! Where have you been?!? Do you know how much I have been ringing you! I told you, check in every hour with the situation down there. You best have a very good excuse or my wrath will descend upon you like never before!"
Kathrine sighed. She enjoyed how much more her and her mother were talking ever since Apollo came into their lives, but she also hated it as the woman was beyond overbearing.
"Kathrine! I am not standing in the middle of a snowfield, freezing my nipples off so you can think of an excuse. Tell me now!" Valerica stated in that particular tone that caused Kathrine's whole body to shiver.
"I am at Sophia's. I was in a location where communicators were jammed. Apollo just got back so we are having a pre party before the official party. Does that-" "- Is he safe? Is he hurt? Oh I am going to murder all those criminal scum! You don't fuck with a guardians progeny and get away with it! Kathrine, I am on my way, I will be there in two hours! Let my baby know I'm coming for him!"
As Valerica hung up, she turned to a man carrying a barrel barehanded and another carrying an identical barrel using a trolley. "Hey! Be careful with those! They are worth more than your shitty company makes in a year!"
"Sorry boss." A large 6ft5" bald man said as he continued to walk with the barrel. The other one, forgetting where he was, began. "Yeah, sorry noble C-C-c-c-c-c-c-c" He managed to suppress himself somehow, mostly thanks to the glare the noble was giving him. 'Scary cunt that one.'
"Lady Hyllus, we have almost disembarked all the goods of my ship. We were lucky there were no checkpoints on the way and that the blockade didn't stop us. Where is this shit going by the way? If it's far, we are going to need local transport."
Valerica turned to the man that was clearly very full of himself by the way he was standing and stated. "I need these goods taken to the strip airport. I can deal with it from there Caleb."
A twitch in Caleb's left eye indicated his frustration as he stated. "My lady, we have clearance to land there..." The two of them then looked at the fifty heavy barrels that were all ready to be placed into smaller transport vehicles...
"Oh, never mind then. You can load them back up and take them there then. I will meet you there in a couple of hours, I need to get dressed for the party. I bet Apollo can't wait to see me after all!"
As Caleb watched the most perfect ass he had ever witnessed walk away, he couldn't help but think. 'What does that Archon have that turns those Hyllus women mental?' He smirked cheekily as his thoughts turned dirty before bringing his attention back to his crew.
"Willy! We need to load all this shit back up! We are taking them down to the strip!" He yelled over the wind, causing his logistician to look at him with anger. "Oh you twatty cunt! You couldn't have found that out half an hour ago? My back is fucking killing me you dumb cunt!"
Willy got a look from Ernie as he walked past, carrying the barrel back into the ship. Willy noticed the look and yelled in anger. "What! I am not a giant cunt like you, you cunt! I need this trolly or I would be dead by now! Cunt!"
He then sighed at the silent judgement coming off Ernie before yelling at the rest of the mercs. "All right everyone! Pack all the shit up! We need to move it elsewhere! Hurry up or no night off!"

"Stop squirming! You are going to make me ruin this piece of art." Talia said to the Sepiida in front of her as she was applying makeup to her. "Piece of art? Are you saying I was ugly or something?" Janine retorted. Talia was used to Janine's crassful ways at this point and shook her head.
"You can still improve on perfection cutie. Now stop moving, I mean it." While still being almost identical to who she used to be, the imbalance in her genealogy has finally left her at peace, causing Janine to allow herself to do stupid girly things like putting on makeup.
Of course not having done it in her entire life, she went to an expert, her somewhat good friend, Talia. "So, are you excited to see Apollo? I know I am. I can't wait to tell him about all the progress I have made since I arrived here. Do you think he will give me his seed as soon as he sees me? Or will I still have to wait? You like women, what do you think? Is this enough cleavage? Or should I show the top of my nipples as well to really emphasise the point I am trying to seduce him?" Talia asked, manipulating her dress from before and after, wanting Janine's opinion.
"Um-" Janine was about to start, before Talia forced her mouth closed. "I said don't move. There isn't much now though. Just the last few touches aaaaand~ there. Come! Let's appreciate my masterpiece!"
Talia then grabbed Janine by the hand and took her from the bedroom into the bathroom. Janine immediately looked in the mirror and her eyebrows raised. "Oh wow. Is that me?" She said as she looked in the mirror.
Talia had not done much to Janine, she didn't look any different like some makeup techniques could do. What she did do was highlight Janine's already beautiful appearance. It is the subtle strokes that make a painting a masterpiece after all.
Talia then came behind Janine and started throwing her hair about to loosen the curls. "Gosh, I wish I had your silver tone, it's gorgeous. I would dye my hair from blue, but eww! I am not putting chemicals in there, what if the root gets damaged? I would be the shame of the planet!"
Janine wasn't listening. Talia enjoyed ranting about herself after all, but she couldn't blame her, the royal Sepiida was begrudgingly beautiful. Janine then turned her body from the mirror and looked at her rear. It was looking really good these days, the Psionic energy in her body has been improving her body slowly, she could feel her muscles getting more refined aesthetically and in power.
"I think If I was to wear a dress tonight, it needs to be one that clings to my curves maybe? What do you think?" Janine asked, causing Talia to stop talking about herself, as clothes and jewellery were her third favourite topic after all!
"By my future mate! Yes! Oh I have just the dress as well! Oh you are going to make so many people horny tonight! Come, come! We have to try on the others though first just in case we find something better!" Talia said as she dragged Janine from the bathroom back into the bedroom for two hours of dress up. An activity months ago Janine would have hated, which she now only mildly got miffed about after the first hour passed.
…
A ground vehicle just parked up outside of Sophia's. The streets were busy again now that Sophia lifted the curfew she put in place when possessed by the stick. The club was also open now, with a line going multiple streets down as tonight was marked a special event with five free drink vouchers per customer.
Jinx stepped out of the vehicle and inhaled the air heavily. With so many people around she shouldn't have been able to detect an individual smell, it was not her forte, but she smiled all the same and mumbled.
'He's here.'
