Kanoe smiled to herself. Her pet seemed so happy about the simple offers she gave. The witch knew the feeling well. Small gifts of pleasure and reward from her mistress was always better than any sort of pain or punishment she could receive. It eventually gets into a woman's head that maybe somewhere deep inside her thoughts that she really wanted it to be this way. Perhaps this is what Pia wanted, to be owned and taken care of on this island filled with secrets and monsters. Seeing and hearing such loyalty come from her beautiful apprentice only made her want to take better care of her pet so that she will always be hers.

Her body was designed to be appealing to the eyes of humans and monsters alike. The price of being raped by constant attacks was high but in exchange she was the envy of a large portion of the student body. With a body like hers, she could easily wrap people around her finger and get whatever she wanted. But Kanoe's wants were not as simple as any models. She had rather specific tastes and Pia seemed to fit all of them.

"I did," she replied, "I had hair this long all my life and have taken a sort of... pride to it. Must sound silly. Me concerned about something as simple as hair." The braid on the other hand was a different sort of badge. It represented her slavery and her submission to her mistress. Perhaps Pia would wear a similar badge for her someday. Something that the innocent beauty would wear with pride and honor, knowing what it meant to her and her mistress.

"Oh, it is not silly at all!", Pia protested. Foam from the shampoo dripped down on her breasts, ran down her own body, hugging her own curves, nicely framing her hourglass frame.
"You got nice hair, why not use it for best effort? Sometimes, I wish I had my mothers hair, but instead I got the blond from the other side.."

Pia's voice trailed off, her fingers working Kanoe's scalp. "Uhm.. I am new to this.. is it customary for the apprentice to first do her Mistress' hair, then her own, or do we both rinse off at the same time?"
It was a comment partly in jest, but it also sprang from the as of yet uncertain conditions of their patron/client relationship. It was a new role for Pia. Not being in a submissive position. That was, unfortunately, something she knew too well. But those were based on force, and the relationship between a student of the occult and her mistress was something new to her. Magic had been a lonesome and dangerous study for her.

She was happy to be studying under someone else for a change. Pia had been subjected to so much, had to work so hard. It was good letting someone else call the shots. She did not mind playing the servant either. Pia did have a submissive streak, and it was easy for someone to assume that was all that was to her. Paradoxically, perhaps, she also valued her independence, or what little of it remained on this island. She might not need to be top dog, but she did not want to be someone's bitch either. But not fighting felt OK for a change.

Perhaps it was something else as well. Pia simply liked being a benefit to someone, giving some care and attention. She was not in a position allowing that often.

"Your hair is very pretty. You belittle yourself too much. I know many students would do anything to have a figure like yours," she said softly. The witch sighed, feeling Pia's fingers massaging her scalp. "Hmm... I suppose finishing mine then yours would make sense. Doing both at the same time would only end with soap in our eyes." She relied on her own training to decide some of these answers. Pia was hers to control and that was what she desperately needed on this island, control. In the end, they were both using each other for their own benefit. But the benefits were very... very pleasant so there was no reason to complain.

Once her hair was done, the dark witch turned and pressed gently against Pia's body. She stole a soft kiss from the woman's lips and smiled. "Thank you. You have been doing very well despite my flaws in teaching you. I hope I can help you channel this power you have to help in your fight against the monsters." Fingers lightly stroked up Pia's sides. While her pet tended to her own hair, Kanoe would take a soapy rag and begin washing her partner's lovely curves. "Perhaps we can find a spell that can change your hair if it bothers you that much." She pondered.

"mmmmm.. We can do that?"

It had actually never occurred to Pia that she might use magic to alter her appearance, but it made sense. It might also be quite useful. Say, subtly alterations to enhance her appeal, as an example..
"Well, I guess we could.. but I don't know if being a redhead is really me.. I am kind of scared to do it if it is permanent, if Mistress forgives my lack of resolve.."
Pia's voice faded a little, as she was kind of distracted for the moment. Being tended to by Kanoe felt good, and the praise she had received had warmed too. And the kiss.. the kiss had been really good, and made Pia tingle in many ways. Some of the mana summoned yesterday was still there, bubbling a little with the feel of her mistress. It made showering feel perhaps a little better, but then, so did having a gorgeous sorceress tending to her soap glistening body.
Pia found herself glancing at the witch, wondering if the mistress might want a little more from her before they went to their respective classes, should time allow. Still, there was things Pia wanted to say before she got too distracted.

"But Mistress.. what you said is not true. Mistress is not a poor teacher! Your method for preparing me.. the way I dressed in the library.. That worked well. And the amount of mana were rose.. that was unlike anything. It is not Mistress fault that it went a little wild.."

The apprentice witch paused a little, lest she got soap in her mouth while rinsing her hair.
"I think, if mistress agrees, that the next time, it is only a matter of you helping me focus the magic into something useful before I let it flow freely. When I am.. uh.. charged I get distracted easily, if you understand.."

Pia made an expression that subtly went from a hint of embarrassment to a smile with a touch of naughtiness.

"Silly girl," she giggled, "You are so indecisive. I like you the way you are. But the choice is always yours." Pia was already losing focus from having her mistress so close to her. The rag would stroke over the woman's hips and up her sides. She would graze the side of Pia's breast, lingering there for a few moments before bringing the soapy suds elsewhere. "Know that I would never want to hurt you on purpose... Well maybe not hurt you too much," she teased with a faint smirk. "You are special to me and I look forward to having many... many lessons with you."

"Well what would you like to focus your mana on?" she asked, "I only know about your ability to gather and charge up with mana. I do not know much else about your ability to cast magic. Perhaps charging in the library will be enough to at least study the basics. Now if you want something more specific. Hmm... You can always try to use your magic for what you gather it from. Perhaps increase sensitivity or making yourself more enchanting to eye. These are just ideas though. I have never dealt with sex as a sort of element of mana before." Of course there were things to focus on besides magic. She would consider teaching her pet how to give a proper massage without burying herself between her thighs. But she could not complain about such moments of passion and bliss. She may even look forward to Pia's unique method of relaxation.

"Oh, I am curious about what a little hurt means. Should I misbehave and find out?", Pia giggled in response to Kanoe's first comment. She had to think a little about the second part, though.

"Well, it is either concentrating on what I might be able to do best, or what you think it easiest to teach. Maybe the best is to try a few different things, and see what I do best, then develop it from there. I was thinking.."

Here Pia paused, having in her enthusiasm gotten careless, and gotten soap in her eye. "..owie.."

Blinking while letting the water run from her forehead into her eyes, she continued. "Sorry.. I was thinking.. According to Se.. to the one who thought me first, a voluptarius is best at creating and enhancing sensations. I also know that I can enhance my own physical performance, recover faster ans so. I was hoping I could transfer some of that to you last night.."

"But..", she continued. "I have noticed I seem to respond to the mana of others. Yours was especially strong, I have only felt something like thatonce before. When we.. last night, I could feel our mana mixing. I think, with proper training and regular.. uh.. mixings, I could learn to master a little of your flame."

Oh, who am I kidding.
"But do you know any spells to enhance attractiveness? I mean.. That would be.. that would be fun! I mean, just a little.. best not to draw too much attention, right?"
Pia's voice was a mixture of uncertainty and enthusiasm.

"That is for you to find out," she replied to the sly remark. Pia continued on the topic of magic only to be interupted by a few soapy suds. The woman got a bit careless and nearly mentioned her previous instructor. Kanoe was a bit curious but had no interest in prying. The instructor was either someone from Pia's past or someone on the island. Chances were she either knew the person or being on the island or she did not want to know them. Kanoe had her fill of monsterous teachers for a lifetime.

Most of what her pet told her was things she already saw or experienced first hand. Despite how timid and shy this one tries to be, Pia was quite the monster in bed. Not that the dark witch was much different in that aspect. "Master my flame?" she pondered, "Well besides sex, I am unsure what sort of affinities you have towards the elements. But perhaps heat will be something you can understand and use. Heat is a main part of the most sensual of pleasures." Kanoe herself had used her fire magic to heat the body, making it more sensitive to the touch. It also helped relax muscles during a massage.

"Attractiveness... Hmm, I personally do not know any magic like that. I do have an apprentice who can create illusions, using it to change her clothing and perhaps appearance," she said calmly, "But she is still learning and I am still trying to understand how her mana is weaved to create such image. I may have something in my books and notes. Whether we use the spells or not, the studying and practice will do us both some good. Seems harmless enough as well."

Once Pia finished cleaning, Kanoe turned off the water and beckoned her pet to get a towel to dry the witch off. Getting started with her was all that was needed, she did not want her pet catching cold from standing there while soaking wet. "If you are interested in such magic, I can see what I can find for our next meeting. Do you wish to meet againt next Tuesday or do you have free time before then?"

"Next Tuesday would be best, Mistress, but I might be able to this weekend." Pia had planned to study, and maybe have some time to either read, or perhaps see if Susan had time to do something, but she was sure she could re-arrange things.

Picking up two towels, she wrapped one around herself, and the other, the one that seemed the largest and fluffiest, she hung around Kanoe's shoulders, proceeding to gently rub her down, casting about with her eyes, looking for a brush or comb, as well as a hairdryer.

"Y-yes.. I noticed how well Mistress used heat. It was quite.. special last night too, when I used my magic. With our mana mingling, I felt like we were wrapped in a solar-flare or something. It was very unique, if Mistress don't mind me saying so."
She bushed a little, memories forcing blood to her cheeks. Discussing magic and sex was something she had to get used to, but the latter seemed to distract her from the former. To a voluptarius the two were like two sides of a coin, but that did not help Pia from being a bit more aware of the woman she was tending to than on the theoretical aspects of sorcery.

"Has it always been flame and heat for you?", she asked. "Or has it been something you studied for especially."

"If you do not have the time, that is fine," the witch responded, "I know you have your own matters to attend to." As much as she wanted to, Kanoe could not let herself be too greedy. Her pet was only her pet by Pia's choice alone. All it would take was a push that was too hard in the wrong direction to lose the woman. But other than that, her pet would remain loyal to her as long as she had things to teach the voluptarius.

She patiently waited while her pet grabbed a soft towel to dry her off with. The woman was gentle with her body much like she was when washing her. The two continued their conversation about magic, showing no real issue about being in the nude. Their eyes may dance over one another bodies but the two acted as if this was normal for them, natural. "Yes, it was certainly intense when our mana mixed together much like our bodies did," she replied with a small smile, "I learned two elements when I first realized my potential. Fire was one the other was shadow. I can manipulate darkness though I have not be able to do much beyond create bolts of the element to use against the monsters. My lover is proficient in the four base elements as well as light and shadow but specializes in fire. She may know few more techniques if you are interested."

She wrapped the towel around her body as Pia found a brush on the counter. "Be sure to take special care in making the braid, my pet," she said softly, "It is... important to me."

"uh, well.. if Mistress think it would be a good idea, I would certainly be honoured if she would instruct me." Pia said. "But if Mistress agrees, maybe I should learn a bit more before I practise with others?"
Part of Pia's reasons were that she was still quite unsure about her own abilities, and also part that she was a bit afraid meeting the lover of her Mistress would be awkward. Not that she was not curious about her. She must be quite some woman to win Kanoe's love, and a sorceress to boot. But sex and love were such tricky things. Pia was quite unsure about both her and Kanoe's girlfriends reactions were they to meet.

Pia obediently fetched a brush and a hair-dryer before setting to work on Kanoe's hair. She treated it with a certain degree of gentleness, as it was very beautiful, and her mistress had commanded her to be careful. Luckily, she braided her own hair from time to time, and had the advantage of being able to see it from behind. She put her best effort into it, hoping it would suffice. She quite enjoyed how smooth it felt on her hands.

"When did you start practising magic?", Pia said. "Was it after coming here, like me, or was it before?"

"No need to worry, my little pet," she teased, smiling softly at their reflection in the mirror, "I have grown attached to you and would not send you away to be trained by another. My lover is rather busy anyway and the others are still beginners much like you are. I am sure she would love to meet you if she were able." Clarice did tend to be jealous but the two have long since understood each other's needs. Much like herself, Claire had her own share of playmates and apprentices.

Kanoe felt nothing wrong and had complete trust in her pet to accomplish the simple task of braiding her long raven black hair. Pia had more questions for her mistress. It was only natural to know more about the one she was bedding and learning magic from. "Seems you wish to know all about me now," she cooed, "I'm flattered. I learned magic on my own back home. I found a tome and managed to figure out some of the language and how to speak it. It was a rather dangerous time. I have a great deal of mana and letting it loose with no training or control led me to having alot more aggressive and destructive magicks. I have only learned more of the basics that I skipped or managed on my own upon coming to this island. It is unfortunate that despite my natural overabundance of mana, that I still cannot use it well enough to defeat the creatures that walk this place."

When the braiding was done, she handed Pia the silver clasp to attach to the end of the braid before turning around. Her arms wrapped gently around her pet as she looked into those wide curious eyes. "Is there anything else you wish to know about me?" She asked.

"Uhhh.." Pia said. She had some question, but she forgot as her mistress kept her close, locking her with her eyes. Kanoe had rather intense, deep eyes, Pia thought. She commanded attention, even in an informal and intimate situation such as this.

Pia's eyes widened a little at the unexpected hug. Pia's towel, wrapped around herself became loose, and it was just the proximity of their bodies keeping it up. Pia's hands went around Kanoe's back, resting at the small of her back, just at the spot there the round rear met the backside. Had Pia glanced sideways towards the mirror, she would no doubt have liked the image. One woman, tall, chesty, with long dark hair framing pale skin against a shorter more girlish blond one, both different but quite feminine, a scene filled with causal sensuality.

"I have no questions, Mistress..", she replied, not breaking eye contact. "..except if Mistress has any further uses for me before we head out?"

She really had meant it as a general offer, cleaning up some of the mess from last night perhaps, but something possessed her to add a slight naughtiness to her smile at the end of the sentence.

What thoughts her pet had seemed to have completely left her head as the two just looked at each other for a moment. Kanoe enjoyed the feel of Pia's body against her own but she knew this could not last forever. They still had classes to go to as it was Wednesday morning now. She wanted to tease and play with her pet for a bit longer. Sadly, she knew she would have to let this one go and get ready and drop by her dorm room before the first bell rung.

"I do have one request, my little pet," she said softly, "I do not wish to leave my lover with our mess so hurry and clean up as much as you can. Only if you have no time left at all should you go and get ready for your classes. Or if you finish early, I suppose we can have a little fun before you go." Kanoe stroked Pia's cheek and gave a soft kiss before pulling away. She allowed the towel to slip, catching it with a hand and tossing it casually to her servant. Wearing nothing but that braid and silver clasp, the witch left the bathroom and heading to her closet to grab a uniform to wear.

As far as she was concerned, this lesson was over for this week. A pity it was only once a week but it will give Kanoe time to study some spells that may be of use to Pia and perhaps give her a bit more insight in other magicks she was not yet familiar to. The idea of making a beauty enhancing spell sounded appealing even to someone as attractive as the witch. She generally preferred magic with more use but letting go of such a strict guideline may do her some good in the long run.

Kanoe finished buttoning up her blouse that hug her chest tightly. If her pet was still working, she would consider making a quick meal for both of them before they leave.

Pia cast a quick glance after her mistress, eyes lingering a little on the way the long braid gently swung across Kanoes arch as she long legged sorceress moved. There was just the right amount of sway in her walk, drawing attention to her long legs, and her nice posture. Pia made a mental note of that. She might not have her Mistress figure, but maybe she should try to move a bit more confident, with a touch of sensuality. More fitting of a voluptarius.

Then Pia snapped out of it. She had been given a task. If it had been her room, she would have left it, then tidied it after classes, but this was mistress' room, and she would be a poor guest to leave it a disaster area.
Rather swiftly, she dried herself off and got ready. She tried taking stock of what she had to do. The first thing was the easiest, making the bed. That was the least of the mess they had made, though. There were toys scattered all around, many clearly having been used. Pia might not have that much experience with sex toys, but she made a point of keeping her own vibrating egg clean and hygienic.

She turned on the faucet in the bathroom, swiftly gathering toys as the water ran, turning from cold to warmer. Making sure all batteries were out, she put them in the sink to soak, turned off the faucet, then started making the bed, working as quick as possible. She put her own used towel near the sink, there she could

There were stains on the floor, wax from the candles. Not too many, luckily, but Pia hoped they did not stick too well.

In a flurry of activity, she tried making as much progress as possible, on occasion asking about where things belonged and such.

Kanoe's apprentice was working hard and rather quickly, doing as much as possible to clean up her room. Seeing so many toys and even bits of wax on the floor only made her wonder what all they did that night. Heat rose in her cheeks, heart beating faster at the hazy memories that surfaced. She shook the memory away and went into the kitchen, luckily their romp did not go into this area of her dorm room. The smell of bacon and eggs would help mask the scent of sex within minutes while her pet continued to clean.

"That will be good for now, Pia," she said as she came to the table with two plates of warm breakfast, "I will take care of the rest before I go. You should hurry back to your room after you are done eating. With a bit more... experience with your magic and your performance, I will try to ensure there is more time for us to clean up should it be needed."

Kanoe set a plate down for Pia before putting one on her side of the table. The room was probably not perfect but it will be enough for the witch to finish up before her first class. Unlike her pet, she was already home and wearing a fresh uniform. If there were no further questions, the witch would remain with her own thoughts through the meal. Eating properly at the table, outsiders would not have known what the two had did just hours before.

When finished, she would take the plates herself. "Do not worry about the dishes this time," she said softly, "I do not want you to be late. Only I should be the one punishing you, not the school." Kanoe smirked slyly at her pet before setting the dirty dishes in the sink to be dealt with later. "I suppose that is all for now. I will see you again on Tuesday. I look forward to it." She smiled faintly.
