My Servant System

I watched as Kat walked out the door, her tail swishing slightly as she gently hummed a tune to herself.

After she left, the guard looked at us three before saying "I am going to go get some rest. Remember, we leave tomorrow at noon, princess."

Bowing to us, the guard entered one of the side rooms.

As a silence fell over the room, I looked over at Anput, holding back a growl.

While I enjoy sparring with her, and won't deny an attraction to how she carries herself, what she did earlier in her spar against Kat...

I moved over to Anput, grabbing her jaw and turning her head to look at me.

"Listen, while I can allow and stomach your courtship, I will not let you try anything with Kat. She belongs to ME, understand?"

Hearing my low growl, Anput smirked at me, her voice quivering slightly as her eyes went steely gray.

"Be that as it may, all I need to do is convince one of you; if I manage to convince you, I get her as well. If I convince her, I get you. So no, I will not stop what I am doing, because in the end she will be mine, just as I would be yours."

I let go of her jaw, growling in annoyance before flopping onto the couch.

I was annoyed, but that was exactly what I liked about her.

Anput did what she wanted, to get what she wanted. She has made her desires quite clear as well; she wants not only me, but Kat as well.

This open, honest admittance of her desires, how she took on both her training and desires with a straightforwardness that I hadn't seen in anyone else, was what made her that much more attractive to me.

She was strong, she was honest, she was fun to be around, she was beautiful...

The more I looked at the Jackalkin girl, the more I realized that she hit every single one of my boxes for a wife, more than Leone did.

I just... preferred her simple way of living life, how open she was with everything, and how she dared to stand up to me, as an equal. I liked that. I really, really did.

Of course, that doesn't mean I like her more than Kat, nor did it mean I was going to completely ignore Leone.

Every time I saw Kat, be it her smile or how cute she looked when she was concentrating on whatever she was doing, made my heart race.

After her core awakening this morning, those feelings only grew, and I shivered as I remembered her ghostly blue eyes staring at me with such blatant lust...

I still remembered the soft feeling of her lips on my own...

How wonderful she sounded when I marked her neck...

The wonderful taste of her skin...

I wanted her, more than I wanted anything else, more than I would ever want anything else.

As for Leone, I found her shyness to be cute, how she was similar to Kat in certain ways quite endearing, and that she herself was quite strong.

However, she didn't appeal to me as much as Anput did, nor did she make me feel much more than simple interest.

With Kat, I lost myself, forgetting everything else in the world except for her.

With Anpu I could enjoy myself as we sparred, and I reveled in the banter and crossing of blades. I enjoyed the way her olive skin glistened with sweat, and I found her laugh pleasant to my ears.

So, when presented with the requirement to marry someone of high standing, Anput was the woman I could see standing by my side with Kat. Of course, that is still many, many years away from now. Who knows how any of us will change?

Sighing, I sank deeper into the couch, before opening my eyes and looking between the confused Leone and smirking Anput.

"I am supposed to marry one of you, maybe even both. However, we still have a few years before I even have to announce an engagement, let alone actually marry. As such, we need to get to know one another better, since I don't plan on marrying someone I dislike, nor do I want someone who will mistreat Kat in my family."

Anput sat down in a free chair, her smirk dropping as her obsidian eyes grew serious.

"I believe I have made it clear that I like both of you; to the point that I would be fine with just one of you."

I nodded at Anput, before looking over at Leone.

Her face was growing red, and she looked down at her hands.

"I-I have... no problem with t-that..."

I chuckled slightly at that, before saying "I have until the second year of the Academy to announce my engagement. Anytime after that becomes problematic. So, I believe it best to... get to know my potential wives. Because of that, I would like to propose that we have multiple visits a year, lasting more than just a few days, where we simply spend time together, be it sparring or studying, I honestly don't care. Where or when can be decided, but we will be meeting throughout the years."

"Are you suggesting that Leone and I come here multiple times every year? Or are you suggesting an alternating schedule, where you visit us and we visit you?"

I shrugged, before replying.

"I really don't care. If you want to come here; great. If you wish for me to come to you, that's fine. However, we WILL be meeting more often than once a year. I will not marry someone just to leave them at home. That not only sits wrong with me but also leads to too many issues, both personal and political. After all, I have to marry people in power."

Leone pursed her lips before saying "T-Then I believe it best... to at least visit every three months... have two of the visits be to March Asmodia and one each to both the Sultanate and to my home..."

Seeing how serious she was, I smiled at her, enjoying the way she quickly looked away as her face grew crimson once more.

We fell into a small discussion, ironing out details and what both of the girls wanted.

Anput was quite simple, simply asking that I still allow her freedom and the ability to do what she pleased. I quickly told her that I couldn't begin to imagine an Anput that was quiet, tame, and completely domestic. She chuckled at that, before falling silent.

Leone was much the same, however she added on that if I married her, I didn't leave her alone, nor forbid Kat from interacting with her. She seemed... worried that a marriage would lead to her being locked away from everything, never to see anything or anyone again.

I promised both of them that I would treat them equally, the same way I treat Kat.

As we finished up, I heard a knock at the door, and after opening it I looked down at Kat standing beside a cart, some trays filled with foods and drinks gathered on top.

Smiling, I watched as she entered, quickly handing out the food before sitting on a couch, patting the open space beside her, her eyes glowing blue as she stared at me.

My heart raced again, and even though I said I would treat them like I treated her, I don't know if they could make me feel the same way that she did.

Again, I am accepting the contract soon. So, if I am able to, I will be making the cost small. If I can't, then oh well.

Other than that, since it is chapter 50, I want to know if everyone would be so kind as to give me another unofficial review in the comments. What have I done well, what can I do better, any suggestions... you know, the normal things.

Anyways, i hope you keep enjoying the story!
