I, the slave boy, awaken with the most potent seed!!

Chapter 165: Meet Bobbles - The slime queen

Zafron paced an unfamiliar room, his eyes darting from one corner to another. The space exuded an air of neglect, with dust motes dancing in the shafts of light that pierced through partially drawn curtains. Ornate furniture, draped in white sheets, stood as silent sentinels to a bygone era.

'This place feels... abandoned,' Zafron thought, running his finger along a mahogany table, leaving a clean streak in its wake.

He recalled Cassandra's instructions, delivered through a stoic guard who'd led him to this secluded wing of the mansion. "Wait here," the man had grunted before taking up position outside the door. Zafron knew Cassandra was attending to some private matter with Lucien, but the details eluded him.

As the minutes ticked by, Zafron's mind wandered. 'What could Lucien want? And why this room?' The questions swirled in his head, unanswered.

Precisely thirty minutes later, the door swung open, revealing Cassandra. Her presence immediately transformed the stale air of the room, infusing it with vitality.

"Is everything alright?" Zafron asked, unable to mask the concern in his voice.

Cassandra's lips curved into a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "Oh, it was nothing," she said, her tone casual but with an undercurrent of something Zafron couldn't quite place. "Lucien's decided to leave and return to Lumina. Terrible news, isn't it?" The sarcasm in her voice was palpable.

She let out a laugh that seemed a touch too forced before swiftly changing the subject. "How are you feeling? Those Sylphflare tail spikes should still be causing you pain, but you seem remarkably unaffected. I wonder why that is?"

Zafron shifted uncomfortably under her scrutiny. 'Here it comes,' he thought.

Cassandra's eyes narrowed slightly. "Zafron, do you... have any magic? I noticed your wounds healed quickly last time as well."

A heavy sigh escaped Zafron's lips. The weight of his secrets pressed down on him, and in that moment, he made a decision. 'No more lies,' he promised himself. 'When I get home, Mara and Matilda deserve to know everything. But for now...'

"I'm tired of lying, Cassandra," he began, his voice barely above a whisper. "I have a... strange ability. I can see things others can't, and it all started after an accident that nearly claimed my life."

Cassandra listened intently, her expression unreadable as Zafron continued.

"And yes, I recently discovered I have some sort of healing ability. But I'm still learning about it myself. I don't really understand how it works."

A moment of silence stretched between them before Cassandra nodded, closing the distance between them. "It's alright," she said, her voice surprisingly gentle. "I only asked because a normal person would be hospitalized after a Sylphflare attack."

Zafron's shoulders relaxed slightly, relief washing over him. But Cassandra wasn't finished.

"However," she continued, "that's not why we're here."

Curiosity piqued, Zafron tilted his head. "Why are we here, then?"

Cassandra's gaze swept across the room, a mixture of nostalgia and something harder flickering in her eyes. "This wing of the mansion has been left untouched for years. It used to be my mother's private space, and now..." she paused, a hint of pride coloring her voice, "now I own it. Every part of this mansion, in fact."

She turned back to Zafron, a mischievous glint in her eye. "Since Uncle Harold so rudely interrupted us last time, I thought we deserved a do-over. Some alone time in this wing where no one, not even Uncle Harold himself, is allowed to venture."

Zafron's heart rate quickened as he began to understand her implications. 'Is she suggesting what I think she is?'

As if reading his thoughts, Cassandra's lips curved into a coy smile. "So, perhaps it's time to try my cool-down method again? And this time," she added, her voice dropping to a husky whisper, "I've got a bit of madness in mind."

Cassandra's eyes sparkled with mischief as she leaned closer to Zafron. "I have this little game in mind we could play to help you cool down," she said, her voice low and enticing. "It's no news to you that I already have powers, right?"

Zafron nodded, curiosity piqued. Without warning, Cassandra held out her forearm, and Zafron watched in amazement as a viscous, iridescent substance seemed to ooze out of her skin. The slime undulated and shifted, forming intricate patterns along her arm.

"Once in a while, I use this slime to relax," Cassandra explained, her voice taking on a dreamy quality. "And whenever I use it, I become a whole different person."

She gestured for Zafron to follow her as they left the room, passing the guard stationed outside. "You can return to your normal post," she dismissed him with a casual wave.

Cassandra led Zafron through the winding corridors of the mansion's private wing, finally stopping before an ornate door. As she pushed it open, Zafron's eyes widened at the sight of the immaculate room before him. Everything gleamed as if it had been cleaned mere moments ago.

"This is my room," Cassandra announced, a hint of pride in her voice. "My mother gave it to me when I was little, calling it my 'little kingdom.'" Her lips curved into a smile. "So in here, I'm queen. That's my role. But this evening, I'd like to assume a different role."

Excitement Bobbles d up in Zafron's chest. "What role did you want to assume?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

Cassandra's smile widened, a secretive glint in her eyes. "Why don't you head into the shower and clean up first?" she suggested, gesturing towards an adjoining bathroom.

Zafron glanced down at himself, suddenly aware of the dirt and grime that clung to his clothes and skin. His tussle with the Sylphflare in the garden had left him in quite a state. "You're right," he admitted, feeling a bit sheepish.

As he made his way to the bathroom, Zafron's mind raced with possibilities. 'What game does she have in mind?' he wondered, a mix of anticipation and nervousness swirling in his stomach. 'And what role is she planning to take on?'

Zafron stepped into the spacious bathroom, his eyes widening at the luxurious sight before him. The room was a masterpiece of marble and chrome, with soft lighting that gave everything a warm, inviting glow. At the center stood a large, sunken bathtub that looked more like a small pool than a traditional tub.

'This is incredible,' he thought, running his hand along the smooth edge of the tub. The porcelain was cool to the touch, a stark contrast to the steam rising from the water that had already been drawn.

For a moment, Zafron hesitated. He had intended to take a quick shower and return to Cassandra, curious about the game she had mentioned. But the allure of the bathtub was hard to resist.

"Maybe just for a minute," he murmured to himself, slipping out of his clothes and easing into the warm water.

As he sank into the tub, Zafron let out a contented sigh. The water enveloped him, soothing his tired muscles and washing away the grime from his earlier encounter with the Sylphflare. Fragrant steam rose around him, carrying the scent of lavender and something else he couldn't quite place – exotic and enticing.

Zafron closed his eyes, allowing himself to relax for just a moment. The events of the day swirled in his mind: the Sylphflare attack, his confession to Cassandra about his abilities, and now this mysterious game she wanted to play. It all seemed surreal, like a dream he might wake from at any moment.

'I should get out soon,' he thought, even as the warm water lulled him into a state of tranquility. 'Cassandra's waiting...'

But the bathroom was so peaceful, so removed from the chaos of the outside world, that Zafron found it hard to motivate himself to leave. Just a few more minutes, he decided. A few more minutes to gather his thoughts and prepare for whatever Cassandra had in store.

As he lounged in the tub, Zafron's mind wandered to Cassandra's demonstration of her slime abilities. What did she have planned? The anticipation mixed with a touch of nervousness in his stomach.

Finally, with a reluctant sigh, Zafron began to rise from the tub. As relaxing as it was, he knew he couldn't keep Cassandra waiting much longer. Whatever game she had in mind, he was now clean, refreshed, and ready to play it.

However, something caught his attention as he turned to the door. And there he saw Cassandra standing but completely devoid of any clothe.

A flowery, relaxing scent filled the room and it mixed well with the warm, moist air. Large, exposed breasts, wide hips, and a body that looked softer than anything else in the room: Zafron couldn't help but stare in wonder. She adjusted her legs slightly, and the movements made a quiet, slimy sound. Her hair was just one large, smooth, hair-shaped mat of goo that went down to her shoulders.

She spoke. "I turned off the water flow for you," she said. Her voice was gentle and soothing. "I'm Bobbles , by the way"..
