Chapter 14 - Awaken

Both girls blushed furiously while Elisha hurriedly pulled up her underwear and pants. Talia ran over to the same side of the bed as Elisha, and they both looked down meekly with their hands clasped in front of them. Talia thought of something and hurriedly covered Kain with a blanket.

"Someone talk. Now. Describe everything that happened while I was gone. If you leave out anything, I won't let you girls go."

Talia and Elisha looked at each other and words slowly started to spill out about the words shared between them and the actions committed. Talia was once again beet red as the sequence of events were explained, while Elisha was stoic as she described everything.

As the sequence of events were being revealed, the very air inside the tent started building up with kinetic energy, as if a precursor to a brewing thunderstorm. Neither of them dared to hide anything from this vengeful woman.

When the two girls finished explaining, Sylvia pointed at Elisha and said, "You, tell me of the encounter you had with Kain before the squealer came. I need to know what you gleaned about his character."

Elisha knew she had no other options and described her interactions with Kain prior to the squealer attack. She even gave her own conjectures about his godly progression speed during the fighting. Despite her building anger, Sylvia nodded in satisfaction at learning such key information regarding Kain.

However, that didn't mean Sylvia wouldn't lay into them.

"Do you two remember what you both volunteered to do? It was to watch over him, not to rap* him. That is what I caught the two of you trying to do. The punishment for rap* in the military, whether male or female, is dismemberment of a limb and banishment to the front-lines, never to be able to return to the military.

Talia, I can give you the benefit of the doubt as you might be suffering from PTSD from your near rap*. It still does not condone what you have done and not being punished is not an option here.

Elisha, you are the true perpetrator here and truly acted as a wolf in sheep's skin. Not only did you have clear intent to rap*, you also made Talia into an accomplice due to your words. Your punishment will surely be worse than Talia's."

By this point, Talia was bawling her eyes out and Elisha had fallen to her knees with a face full of despair and shock.

Sylvia continued, "There is, of course, another option open to the both of you. Military code allows for an enslavement contract to be established between the victim and the criminal. If Kain so chooses, He will be your master for no less than 5 years for you Talia and 20 years for you Elisha, in accordance to the severity of your crimes.

Failure to reach these term limits will lead to the original punishment to be enacted. During this contracted period, all your military achievements and rewards will be accorded to him. At the same time, all your wealth shall be ceded to him, with a portion to be set aside so that a domicile in any upper district be purchased, funds permitting.

It is there, where the two of you shall serve your terms along with your new master. I must remind you that the two of you are not allowed to have sexual relations with others during the terms. Of course, this is not binding towards your new master, if he is agreeable to it.

You will follow all your master's commands faithfully and make sure he is comfortable to the best of your abilities for the terms stipulated. When your terms are completed, your military rank will be restored to you and can continue your military careers. Now, I'm quite sure the two of you will accept this second option correct?"

Both of the girls gave a quick yes. Talia was no longer crying and Elisha was no longer in despair and had stood up again from the ground. There even seemed to be hints of happiness in the two of them right now.

Sylvia broke out into a sardonic grin as she said, "I feel like instead of punishing the two of you, I have actually rewarded the two of you instead. Now, the man that both of you desire can no longer walk away from either of you. Of course, this is contingent on whether or not he accepts the slave contracts.

Knowing what will happen to the both of you if he doesn't accept, I am sure he will accept. For now, go and find your beds and come back in the morning. When he awakens, I will explain to him what happened while he was passed out."

"Yes, Lady Sylvia." Both the girls bowed and left the tent.

Sylvia walked over and sat in a chair next to Kain as she frowned at the large bump underneath his blanket. Don't tell me that he is stuck like this. There is no way he can cover this up under his clothing. If I bring him like this to my father, instead of shock and awe on his face, it will be apoplectic. Hmm, the ration pills are no longer disappearing. Guess I can put the rest away.

Sylvia waved her hand and the pills disappeared. She then set up a kinetic ward at the tent entrance to prevent others from entering and then proceeded to the back of the tent to rest.

A few hours passed into the night and Kain finally woke up in a slightly confused state. He felt something heavy on this chest and saw a large bump under his blanket. Was someone sleeping on top of him?? He slowly peeked under the blanket, before yelling, "HOLY FUCK!"

"Kain? Are you finally awake?" drifted over a sleepy, sensual voice from somewhere in the back of the tent.

Kain screamed in his mind, "OH SHIT! Please go down, please go down!"

Whether it was his strong desire or some other reason, his penis slowly shrank down to regular size and he hurriedly pulled up his briefs and pants. After doing so, he froze and wondered…why was he so exposed in the first place? Who did that voice belong to?

Kain quickly checked his watch as he sat up at the edge of the bed to get his bearings. It was 4:40 in the morning. He tried to recall why he was in some strange tent with another person, when he heard soft steps approaching.

As Kain raised his head to see who it was, he froze and was in a daze. He saw a barefoot Sylvia with pajamas. With her hair unbraided and cascading down around her, she walked forward while rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and yawning. She then plopped down into the chair in front of Kain.

"Wait, what happened to..? Never mind, you seem fine now. How do you feel?" asked a still groggy sounding Sylvia.

Kain realized something. He smiled and proceeded to pinch Sylvia's cheeks and stretch them out a few times. Then, he tussled her hair and smacked her ass with his hand. He proceeded to say out loud, "This has got to be a dream, right? I must still be…"

"How do you want to die?" came a commanding voice from behind the now entangled hair.
