Lukas swam up to the palace for his eleventh labor. The Royal Family was immortal, so he figured that they could help him with the blood drops. He was pretty sure that getting a drop of blood from himself or Calliope would be cheating. As he approached the gates, the guards crossed their tridents to stop him. \u201cState your business,\u201d said one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI-I wish to speak to the Royal Family,\u201d stammered Lukas. \u201cAll of them. I-If they\u2019re free, of course.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat purpose could you have with the Royal Family?\u201d asked the other guard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cP-Private business, s-started by my mistress, C-Calliope.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Queen\u2019s sister? \u2026Very well.\u201d The guards uncrossed their tridents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTh-Thank you, gentlemen.\u201d Lukas swam past the guards and headed to the throne room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thankfully, Cassidy was with her husband and king, Davis, and their adopted princess, Sapphire. They were lounging on the throne, having completed all the duties they needed to perform that day. \u201c\u2026We haven\u2019t had much of a vacation, have we?\u201d asked Sapphire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026No, we really haven\u2019t,\u201d replied Davis. \u201c\u2026Maybe some tropical shores?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI know the perfect place,\u201d said Cassidy. \u201cThe sun can even give a pale person a perfect tan without getting burned.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, let\u2019s see when we-!\u201d Davis\u2019s declaration was interrupted when someone knocked on the throne room doors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026Never fails,\u201d sighed Cassidy. She called out to the door. \u201cYes?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cY-Your Majesty, it\u2019s Lukas,\u201d came a voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLukas?\u201d asked Davis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe\u2019s performing some labors for Calliope,\u201d explained Cassidy. \u201cI guess he\u2019s here to fulfill a new labor. Come in, Lukas!\u201d Lukas entered the throne room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cH-Hello, your Majesties, your Highness,\u201d stammered Lukas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat brings you here, Lukas? A favor from my sister?\u201d asked Cassidy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cW-Well, somewhat. You see, I\u2019ve completed ten labors for her, but\u2026well\u2026this new one involves\u2026a drop of blood from three immortals, and-.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIs that all?\u201d asked Sapphire. \u201cLukas, buddy, one drop of an Immortal\u2019s blood is how you can make a potion of immortality. The inherent immortality in the blood makes it the key ingredient. If she was asking for a lot of our blood, then we\u2019d be worried.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCastor!\u201d called Davis. The Head Butler then swam in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes, your Majesty?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGet some blood drop collection equipment. Calliope\u2019s new guy needs a drop from me and my family.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVery good, Sir.\u201d Castor swam out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s really no trouble?\u201d asked Lukas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOne drop of blood is no issue,\u201d assured Davis. \u201cNow, if we were divine, then we\u2019d need to give you six drops of blood each to keep the inherent divinity fresh.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThank you so much, My Lord and Ladies,\u201d said Lukas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLukas, if I didn\u2019t know any better,\u201d mused Cassidy, \u201cI\u2019d say you were crushing on my sister.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026W-well\u2026you\u2019re\u2026very perceptive,\u201d admitted Lukas. \u201cMy greatest wish is to be a servile femboy for a powerful lady that\u2026that would want me as that, romantically.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cA servant and a lover, hm? That\u2019s your heart\u2019s desire?\u201d asked Davis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes, Your Majesty.\u201d Davis smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHow far along are you?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, this is my eleventh labor, Your Majesty. And she\u2019s been asking me what my future as a servile femboy looks like, even my future outfit. \u2026I think she wants me to stay with her. \u2026Gods, I personally hope so.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, I wish you luck in that,\u201d said Cassidy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After retrieving the blood drops, Lukas returned to the lair, his new home. \u201cMistress!\u201d he called. \u201cGot the blood drops!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cExcellent! Where did you go to get them?\u201d asked Calliope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026Th\u2026The palace,\u201d replied Lukas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGot them from my sister and her family, excellent!\u201d She collected the containers with the blood drops and shone a light under them. \u201cYep, that\u2019s them all right! What say we have ourselves a little bath?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOf course, Mistress. \u2026But I DO have some questions that need an answer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOh? And what would those questions be?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2026I would like to continue serving you, Mistress,\u201d said Lukas. \u201c\u2026But I\u2026I\u2019d also like to be your\u2026your lover\u2026if\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026Lukas, the others already guessed my motives for you,\u201d said Calliope. \u201cBelieve me, I\u2019d love to have you as my lover, but I\u2019ve been burned before by people that weren\u2019t honest to me about themselves. That\u2019s what I look for in a partner.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThen I\u2019ll finish the last labor and prove I\u2019m being sincere!\u201d declared Lukas. \u201cI\u2019ll prove to you that I want to be your servile femboy as well as your lover!\u201d Calliope smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m rooting for you to succeed, Lovely Lukas,\u201d she said as she booped his nose. \u201cNow, I promised us a bath. Let\u2019s go take it, hm?\u201d She and Lukas headed to the bathroom, eager for Lukas to complete his last labor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
