It was another piece of information Rose didn't share with me. When I was about to ask her about it, Cora cleared her throat, drawing my attention back to her, "Rose was not permitted to tell you because we never expected a human would actually find themselves in this position."
I rubbed my hands through my hair in frustration, "Battle? Who do I have to battle? I thought this was like, uhm, learning to take care of a sex slave."
Cora shook her head, "I'm sorry. I guess Alma was very vague with you. Achieving the level of Master is the easy part. But becoming a Grand Master is different. You will need to be matched with a slave that can complement your sexual ability and fuel the sex slave's demonic powers. Battling is a way to prove you have complete control over your slave. I will explain a bit more of that after Lucious gets here."
Rose shifted next to me, and I could see the disgust on her face, "Rose, what's wrong?"
Cora sighed, "Grand Master Lucious oversees the academy. He is in charge of the battles and testing for sex slaves to see if they are ready to move on to being matched or finding their perfect Master. Rose can be matched, but she cannot advance in the academy to find her perfect Master until she passes. I will touch on that more later."
I patted Rose's hand and gave her a weak smile, "It's okay, Rose, I'm here now. I'll make sure you pass."
The Academy Director laughed lightly before continuing, "Things to keep in mind, sex is permitted on campus. However, only during free time, please refrain from fucking in the classrooms. It can be distracting. Once you start Master levels, sex will be permitted for presentations. Oh, and please remember, you cannot have sex with slaves that are matched. This can land you in detention and then termination from the courses. Any questions so far?"
Before I could bombard her with questions, the double wooden doors opened suddenly, and in walked three women that instantly gave me an erection.
Each one was a stark contrast to the other. Barely dressed and curvy, you could imagine days spent in bed taking turns with each one. They exuded sexuality.
While my mind started bending each one over the back of the sofa, I was suddenly made aware of the strong presence of the man standing in the doorway.
He was tall, slim, and had hair the color of moonlight. His eyes were violet, much like Rose's, and he was smiling at me in such a way I was a bit creeped out. I didn't prefer men, but this guy was too pretty to be male. His soft angelic features only lacked breasts, and he could easily pass for a girl.
Cora quickly said, "Grand Master Lucious, you are earlier than expected."
The three women with him stood behind the sofa, and the Grand Master sat across from Rose and me, never taking his eyes off either of us.
"Yes, well, I couldn't help but be most curious as to who our new recruit was," he responded, smiling with a mouth full of delicate pointy teeth.
"He's puny," the long green-haired girl with mocha skin said from behind him.
"He's not attractive either," the other one standing in the center of the three murmured next, with her yellow cat-like features and straight black hair.
"Well, if Rose likes him, he can't be all that bad, right... right?" this came from the girl at the end, and she was the most attractive of the three. Her long golden curls and bright blue eyes were very human if you could put aside her pointy ears and teeth. I couldn't help but notice her massive rack, barely contained by a thin white t-shirt.
The other two scoffed at her, and they began arguing for only a moment until the Grand Master held his hand up.
"Pixy, come here, my love," he said in a deep sultry voice.
The fair-haired demon nodded hesitantly in response, and I was suddenly worried for her. I could tell from the Grand Master's look something terrible was about to happen.
I glanced at the Academy Director, hoping she would stop what was about to take place, but she kept her head down, staring at her long delicate fingers.
Rose almost made me jump. Her hand was suddenly grabbing onto mine and squeezing. I looked at her, about to say take it easy, when I noticed her eyes. They went from a light violet purple to almost a deep glittery abyss as she stared at the Grand Master. I could feel the hate coming off her in waves. So, I took the pain of my hand almost being broken for her sake.
Pixy went around the sofa and sat by his feet. The Grand Master smiled wickedly at her before he moved into a half-sitting position with his long legs covered in white suit pants stretching out before him on the sofa.
"Pixy is my youngest match and still learning after all these years. But, unfortunately, her stupidity sometimes gets the best of her, doesn't it, Pixy?"
The blond couldn't meet his eyes, but she nodded, answering, "Yes, my Master."
The Grand Master Lucious was a real asshole. That was quickly noticeable in his attitude, but when he looked back at me and smiled, I almost lost focus.
"You wish to become a Grand Master, I hear? And you are just human? Ha ha, interesting. Well, human, let me allow you a free lesson in managing your slaves," he said, looking at me and then back to his slave, Pixy.
"Pixy love, let's show the human and Rose how it's done, shall we? She should be shown what proper punishment is and how it can be pleasurable."
I suddenly understood what was going on. This wasn't about me, but about Rose. The guy had it hard up for her, and this was just a demonstration of power.
I was about to get up and do something, anything, for his rudeness toward my Rose, but then she squeezed my hand harder as a warning. I looked at her, and she slowly shook her head.
Looking back at the Grand Master, I watched as his slave, Pixy, delicately undid his pants. Her tiny flawless hands pulled back his zipper.
I was about to turn my head in disgust. I didn't want to see some other guys raging hardon up close and personal. But when nothing came shooting outward between the zipper, sick curiosity got to me.
