Hierarchy
"Ughhh..."
The entire way back, Baeksoyoung kept making sounds of pain.
"What's wrong? Is there still some yin energy left in you?"
"...Don't talk to me."
No matter what anyone said, she kept retching. When Harin tried to speak to her, she couldn't even give a proper response.
"Tch, I already handled the yin energy for you, didn't I?"
"It came from you in the first place, didn't it? If you really cared about me, you shouldn't have done that from the start."
"But Hwanhyeon-nim ordered it, what could I do?"
"Easy for you to say."
Every word Soyoung spoke was aggressive.
"Don't fight so hard."
"Ughhh...! It's all your fault anyway! The way you... the way you...! Humiliating me in front of the guard squad...!!"
"You enjoyed it too. You were cumming at the slightest breeze."
"Again with those excuses...! Ughhh!!"
Baeksoyoung ground her teeth together with feverish intensity, then abruptly let out all her strength.
"...I have responsibilities to fulfill."
"Responsibilities for what?"
Baeksoyoung shouted with teary eyes.
"Making me strip naked in broad daylight in front of all those subordinates and act like a bitch!"
"Hm."
"On top of that... you made such a mess of me, and if a kid happened to walk in...!"
She covered her lower belly with both hands, her face flushed red. She'd been so bold with her muscle declarations in front of the guard squad, but now that her mind was clearing, practical worries were flooding in.
Of course, the foundation beneath that worry was an unspoken plea — don't abandon me — and I wasn't blind to it.
"So? Are you telling me to take you and raise the kid?"
"Isn't that obvious! If you got me pregnant, it's a man's duty to take responsibility!"
"Harin-ssi, what do you think?"
"Oh my, Soyoung-ah. You could just say it honestly."
When I asked the Harin walking beside me, she wrapped her arm around mine and giggled.
"Just say 'I want to stay by Master's side forever.' Why do you have to beat around the bush?"
"Sh-shut up, Harin! Our positions are completely different!"
"What's different? Whether it's you or me, we're both bodies that can't survive without Hwanhyeon-nim."
"That... ughhh...!"
Baeksoyoung bit her lips hard, unable to counter. Her eyes were getting moist again too.
That image of her — puffing up her pride while being anxious inside — was quite endearing.
I met her eyes and smirked.
"Don't worry."
"...What?"
"I'll take responsibility."
Baeksoyoung's eyes went wide.
"Y-you... really? Are you saying you'll accept me...?"
"Yeah. I'm not giving my stuff to anyone else."
"M-my stuff...!"
"Don't like it?"
"......I don't dislike it, but..."
Baeksoyoung hesitated, then covered her reddened cheeks with her hands and bowed her head deeply. The relief mixed into the corners of her mouth was impossible to hide.
"There are conditions, though."
"C-condition?"
"Don't act as arrogant as you did when you were at Baekho Dang. If you want to be by my side, you have to act thoroughly like a bitch. Got it?"
"...Yes."
Normally she would've exploded with "How dare you!" and been all fired up, but the tamed Baeksoyoung nodded her head like a docile lamb.
"Answer properly."
"I... I understand... Master..."
Her voice crept out low, but that answer carried clear obedience.
"Good girl. I should give you a reward when we arrive."
"A... a reward...?"
Her body flinched. The word "reward" made yesterday evening's pleasure flash through her mind reflexively.
I smirked, watching the expression mixing fear and anticipation.
"Tch... I never imagined my mother would be such an easy woman."
"Once a servant receives Master's blessing, this is only natural. Haven't all the women who've been with Master been longing for his love by their side?"
"Can't argue with that..."
Seolhye sighed deeply and shook her head.
She too was a case who'd initially resisted but had now become compliant.
She'd even witnessed firsthand her mother screaming in pleasure the previous night, so even if her mind couldn't accept it, her body had accepted it.
"Th-those things... there's nothing I can't do in front of others...!"
Baeksoyoung's ears turned bright red at the blunt evaluation coming from beside her, and she tried to hide behind my back.
The leader of the greatest White Tiger Sect in the world, cowering while watching her daughter and her friend's expressions. How pathetic.
"Cute, our Soyoung."
"Stop teasing me...! I'm at the point where I want to die..."
"Can't die. This is where the real start begins."
I chuckled and wrapped my arms around Baeksoyoung's waist. Her body responded to my touch with familiar reflexes, shuddering.
That noisy homecoming continued, and before long, a familiar landscape came into view.
The premier hunter training institution in the Republic of Korea — the Academy. After finishing the chaotic Baekho Dang expedition, we'd finally returned to base.
"Ahhhh~ There's nothing like home, is there?"
Jinyul stretched and sighed with satisfaction, and the other women also looked at the campus with expressions of relief.
Even Seolhye seemed to be enjoying the comfortable feeling.
But one person — only Baeksoyoung — radiated tension.
"Is this... where you stay?"
"Yeah. It's going to be where you live too."
"......"
She swallowed dryly and glanced around.
For someone who'd lived for decades in a traditional hanok within a closed sect, the modern Academy facilities must have felt quite unfamiliar.
There was one thing I needed to do first.
—Bwulkk!
"Seoyeon-ah! I'm back!"
My mission was to find Wi Seoyeon, the bitch of my house who'd been guarding it alone for days.
"...Seoyeon-ah?"
But instead of an answer, a scraping sound — da-da-da-thud — came from inside before the door even opened.
"Master!!"
Before the front door fully opened, a nude white body came flying out from the inside and latched onto my leg.
"Hyaang! Why are you just now coming back...! You said you'd be right back...!"
It was Wi Seoyeon.
She wore nothing but a single thread of fabric, with only the leather collar I'd given her before dangling around her neck.
Her eyes were teary from however long she'd been waiting, and a dog-tail-shaped plug was plugged into her ass, swaying seductively every time she moved.
"Sorry. Things ran a bit late."
"Hiiiing... didn't even take me for a walk... too much...!"
Seoyeon buried her face in my pants and whimpered like a puppy. She seemed much more childishly petulant than usual, probably from the loneliness of being left alone for days.
I crouched down and stroked Seoyeon's head.
"You kept the house in good shape though? Good girl."
"Hehe... give Seoyeon a pat on the head... give me a kiss...❤️"
With just one compliment, Seoyeon's expression brightened instantly, she stuck out her lips, and burrowed into my lap.
Then it happened.
"Th... this is what exactly...?"
Baeksoyoung's horrified voice came from behind me. She stood frozen at the entrance, staring blankly down at Wi Seoyeon clinging to me and wagging her tail.
A person — a fully grown virgin — naked, collared, with a tail plugged in, latched onto a man and sticking out her tongue.
Even to Baeksoyoung, who'd just been drowning in guilt, Wi Seoyeon's appearance was a shock of a different dimension.
"Huh? Master, who's this big sis?"
Only then did Seoyeon notice Baeksoyoung's presence and tilt her head.
"Big sis...?! How rude! I'm the leader of Baekho Dang..."
Just as Baeksoyoung was about to flare up, I smiled and introduced the two of them.
"Go say hello. This side is the new recruit, Baeksoyoung."
"Ah~ A new recruit?"
Seoyeon's expression instantly shifted from "beloved pet of the master" to "senior asserting authority."
She climbed out of my lap, swaying her tail plug as she crawled on all fours toward Baeksoyoung.
"Hm... looks a bit older, but the body's not bad."
"Wh... what...! How dare you...!"
"Soyoung-ah."
At my soft call, Baeksoyoung flinched and clamped her mouth shut.
"Seoyeon is your senior. Show some respect."
"Bu... but this is weird, isn't it!"
"Sit."
Seoyeon commanded sharply.
"What?"
"New recruit training is definitely necessary. You have to learn to crawl on your own before Master will love you. Like me."
Wi Seoyeon nuzzled my foot with her cheek and licked it. The sight was so natural that the clothed Baeksoyoung standing there looked out of place.
"...Wait, is this...?"
Seoyeon narrowed her eyes and crawled between Baeksoyoung's legs.
"Snff..."
"Hwik?! What are you doing?!"
Seoyeon buried her nose in the hem of Baeksoyoung's skirt and started sniffing. The way she persistently licked the dampness between Baeksoyoung's legs was unmistakably animalistic.
"Hm... smell..."
Seoyeon lifted her head and stared at Baeksoyoung squarely.
"Master's scent is vibrating from your pussy? Looks like you got a good filling."
"......!!"
"Hmph, liked it? Did Master's cum feel that good?"
Seoyeon's voice mixed jealousy with a strange relief at having confirmed a fellow woman.
"Th... this is vulgar...!"
"The vulgar one is you. Walking around covered in Master's semen while putting on airs."
—Thwack!
Seoyeon swished her tail and smacked Baeksoyoung's clit with her finger.
"Kkweehooock?!!"
"Going to say hello soon? Master's watching."
With Seoyeon's urging and my indifference, Baeksoyoung finally bent her trembling legs.
—Thud.
She knelt down and matched eye level with Seoyeon, who was on all fours.
"I... I'll... ask you... nicely..."
"Senior, ma'am?"
"...Senior, ma'am."
Baeksoyoung spat out the words with bitten lips, barely managing. Seeing that, Seoyeon smiled satisfactorily and patted Baeksoyoung's head.
"Oguogu, good girl. For a new recruit, your posture is nice."
"Ughhh..."
"If you don't know something later, ask your unnie. Things like how to wear a collar or how to plug in a tail."
Seoyeon played the senior card to the fullest, acting all high and mighty, then slithered back to me and latched on.
"Hehe, Master! Did Seoyeon do well? Sorted out the hierarchy properly, right?"
"Yeah, you did great."
When I stroked Seoyeon's head, the brat wagged her tail plug plugged into her ass vigorously, seemingly in a good mood.
"Then Master... take me for a walk now... please?"
