Shaking her head, Shizuku led Mei back to the inn where Margret was currently sweeping the outside. "Back already?"
"Yeah, I have never been one to shop around. I saw Mei and felt she was perfect." Shizuku said as she pulled Mei to her side. Mei's expressionless face just stared straight ahead. She did not seem to have any intention of saying anything to anyone.
"Hmmm?" Margret looked at Mei. She scanned the girl up and down before nodding her head. "It must be the fluff."
"It is! You do get me!" Shizuku let out a laugh, which made Margret smile.
"Looks like you will need to get her some clothes and armor, right?" Margret asked.
"Yeah, I plan to head to the place I went to yesterday before going to the adventurer's guild. I can't have Mei wearing nothing but a shirt." Shizuku raised her hand and rubbed the top of Mei's head. This time, she did get a small reaction from the girl, but it was only a slight ear twitch.
"Yes, such a cute girl shouldn't be wearing just a shirt. I have an old dress that will be a bit too big but it would suffice, for now, to get her to the store. Take her upstairs and get her cleaned up. I will leave the dress outside your room." Margret gave a warm smile to Mei before turning to go get the dress.
Shizuku led Mei upstairs and sat her on the bed. The girl was quite beautiful, even with the large black mark on her body. "Mei, can you hear me?"
Mei's eyes slowly moved toward Shizuku. She gave a small nod, her first actual reaction since Shizuku bought her. But this was enough for Shizuku. She smiled and placed her hand on Mei's head, and said: "Good. My name is Shizuku. I will be your Master. I promise to make sure you have everything you need, from food to drinks, clothes, everything. If you need anything, just let me know, okay? We are going to take a bath, and I will get you cleaned up."
Mei gave another slight nod. Mei did not care what happened to her. Her life was meaningless. But she was scared of death as well, or else she would have long ended her life. She wondered if this girl who bought her would send her back when she found out she was useless. Not that she cared. She had spent so long in that cage that it didn't matter.
Shizuku did not know what was going through Mei's mind, but if she did, she would try to reassure the girl that she was not going to send her back. Shizuku brought Mei into the bathroom. "Raise your hands over your head."
Mei did as she was told. Her shirt was taken off, revealing the black mark that covered half her body. "Yep, a perfect ten." Shizuku took in the sight of Mei's body and felt it was perfect. She couldn't help but feel excited to know that she would be cuddling with such a cute girl tonight.
"Mei, you are very beautiful, you know." Shizuku's honest smile made Mei's eyes widen slightly before going back to normal. Mei did not know what this girl was talking about. She began to wonder if this girl had something wrong with her mind. Who would like a girl covered in a hideous black scar? How was she beautiful when she was so ugly?
Shizuku undressed as well and got the water running. The warm water filled the bathtub quickly, allowing the two to get in. Although it was cramped, Shizuku had Mei sit on her lap while she began washing the girl's body. With soap-covered hands, Shizuku's cheeks were red as she slowly ran them over Mei's body. The idea of being able to touch another girl so freely was something she had never thought she would ever get to do, but here she was, slowly caressing the body of a girl she had bought.
Shizuku started off with Mei's back, her neck, and her hips. Then she did each arm, every finger. Slowly and gently, since she wanted to enjoy every moment of helping Mei bathe. When it came to her front, Shizuku got a little more nervous as her hands gently cupped the two plump objects that hung from Mei's chest. The feeling in her hand was out of this world as she gently kneaded them. Ever so gently, she cupped the bottoms and moved towards the top, each time skimming the nipple that was starting to perk up.
Mei still sat there emotionless. Even as Shizuku's hands trailed down her stomach between her legs, she did not show any change of expression. Her mind felt numb. If it was not for her body naturally reacting to what was happening, no one would know that she was even alive.
Shizuku's hand cupped the perfect mound. It trembled ever so slightly as she let her middle finger slip into between the lips, and she began gently washing it. Normally, one would only spend a short time washing this area, but Shizuku couldn't help but linger a little longer. She was memorizing the feeling. The numb at the top. The exact position of the entrance to Eden. She did not stick a finger in but she did circle it a little and gently played with the rosebud. She couldn't resist. She felt like an old pervert. After a few minutes, she ended up forcing herself to move back to washing Mei's legs.
"Mei, stand up please," Shizuku asked to make it easier for her. Mei did as she was told, and right in front of her was a now wet, reddish tail that needed great care.
