Thread: Run Away Slave (kinky-sub x Inwiththebooks)

The next few days were rather ordinary for Lea, the sorceress mostly engrossed in her work and barely noticing Chloe as she worked. Having a slave was really not as much a hassle as the sorceress had first expected, with the ability to shrink her Lea wasnt dealing with a burden and in fact she made the mundane aspects of her life much easier. The slaves job was to keep her clothes clean, cook, wash the floor and keep everything neat and tidy. It allowed the sorceress to focus completely on her tests and research, the part of her home that made up her lab having been made clear to Chloe to be completely off limits. Lea may or may not have subtly threatened punishment if she entered. However, given that Chloe had a former owner out there Lea still needed to occasionally go out into town to get basic supplies. Thankfully with her shrinking spell, Lea was able to conserve so much space that she could stock up on quite a bit at once. That spell was already paying off in spades, however it had become rather mundane and simple now so she was research more exciting forms of magic. Currently she was looking into barrier magic, a bit passive for her but her contacts in the military were looking for some forms of protective enchantments for their soldiers. Normally Lea didnt accept contracts, however the pay was good and it always helped to have a few favors to call in later. The looks she got as she walked through town varied, some more accepting of her gave her waves and warm greetings. Others simply stared warily at her, fearful of the witch that lived beyond the town proper. Occasionally she also heard whispers of news here in town, most worthless but some could be worthwhile. It always paid to keep ones ears open. It was thanks to this method that she heard a bit of gossip that troubled her greatly. Mostly because it was relevant to her personally. Did you hear those guards asking around about some slave girl yesterday? Yeah, I hear shes got a hundred gold bounty for being delivered to some noble. A hundred? Damn, maybe we should get in on that Are you crazy? We dont have weapons or anything, besides no one around town has seen her. Probably isnt even around here. If it were possible Lea quickened her pace out of town, slinging her bag of shrunken goods over her shoulder. Chloes former owner seemed to not be content to just let her stolen property vanish. The sorceress was not one to give up something once it belonged to her, Chloe was hers now. Those whip scars across her back were also incentive to not let this Helena take Chloe back, that abusive bitch had no idea how to treat something that belonged to her. The slave girl was nice, demure, and completely docile. So far Lea had not needed to punish her for anything, so what could she have possibly done to warrant such savage beatings? The sorceress was home quickly enough, opening the fence door and stepping into her well maintained garden. Herbs of various species grew here, a few had been crushed underfoot during Chloes initial intrusion but they had been pretty common anyway. Lea did not feel comfortable having Chloe working outside now for some time, at least until the bounty situation passed. The sorceress opened the door and slipped inside, kicking off her sandals and heading into the kitchen. She set the bag on the counter with a sigh, rolling her shoulder slightly as she took off her hat as well. Chloe, Im home! I brought you some things to put away. Lea called out.
