Chương 411: Chapter 412: See, this is what I’m talking about

As the photoshoot for the four seasons came to an end and Lorelie and Rowena were about to go change again, they suddenly heard Adam ask, "Want me to step outside?"

"Why?" Lorelie asked with a puzzled look that the other women shared.

"You're about to change into the lingerie and nighties, right? While I don't think you have a problem with me seeing you wearing them in person, Rowena might feel differently," Adam replied.

"Hehe," Rowena giggled in understanding as she heard his words before smiling at Adam and saying, "Thank you for the consideration, but as a model who has done underwear shoots before, I am used to men seeing and leering at me wearing very little. So feel free to stick around."

"If you're sure," Adam replied.

"Don't worry about it. You have already seen me in an Earth swimsuit after all, plus, we need you to tell us if we are wearing them correctly, since we have never tried lingerie, although it just seems like a more sexy version of underwear and also the nighties." Before Adam could reply, Rowena turned and walked back into the changing room, while Lorelie shot him a wink before following.

"That girl just can't admit that she wants you to stick around and check out her figure more," Aphrodite said with a smirk.

"Huh?" Adam replied.

"Have you never wondered why Rowena chose to become a model?" Aphrodite asked.

"Because she has a great figure? That's normally what you need to become a model, isn't it?.... Well, most models."

"While I can't deny that it's true, it's not what I meant," Aphrodite replied before leaning in close again and whispering, "She would never admit it openly, but Rowena has a fetish for being watched."

"You mean she enjoys men leering at her?"

"Leering at her, ogling her, giving her perverted looks. She must have told you how she likes being the centre of attention?"

"It's been mentioned, sure."

"Well, it's true, she desires to be the centre of attention whenever she can, and that's not all."

"Not all?" Adam asked curiously. Aphrodite smiled before saying teasingly, "Add her to the harem and I will tell you a secret that only a handful of people know."

"As tempting as that is, I'm not going to try and persuade her to join," Adam replied.

"Why? Because of Stacey?"

"Why else?"

"Hmm," Aphrodite replied before going quiet. Adam shot her a side-eye and saw that she seemed to be thinking about something, so he decided not to say anything more but instead turned to Eri and asked, "Can I help with anything?" Eri considered his question for a moment as she looked around the set they were using for the photoshoot before she shook her head and replied, "No, I think we are good for now. But I will call you if I need you."

"Sure," Adam replied before suddenly receiving a notification from Spector. [[Access to Royal Entertainment servers acquired.]] [[Beginning company wide background check.]] [[Estimated time for completion: 7 hours 41 minutes 9 seconds.]]"Looks like they agreed," Adam mumbled. Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences.

"Huh?" Aphrodite asked as she heard Adam speak, pulling her out of her own internal thoughts.

"Nothing, it's just that it seems Princess Tessa kept her word and sent the program to someone back on Terrana Five, as Spector just gained access to Royal Entertainment's servers."

"She probably gave it to her mother, Empress Victoria, since they still don't know who they can fully trust back there. Also, is Spector the name of your ship's AI?" Aphrodite replied. 💫💫💫"What is it, Victoria? You know I am busy trying to hunt out the remainder of any possible traitors in our midst." Michael Ororis asked as he entered what used to be Daniel's office, but Victoria had now taken over since his passing.

"That's why I called you grandfather," Victoria said as she looked up from the holographic screen above her desk with shining eyes.

"Oh?" Michael replied as he saw Victoria's expression.

"Take a look at what Tessa just sent me via our Ororis families' secure communications," Victoria said before enlarging the holographic screen and spinning it around so that Michael could read it.

"Terran traitors," Michael read the title with surprise before focusing on the holographic screen with a serious expression.

"If this is legitimate, then it's both incredible and very disturbing since it means so many traitors have managed to infiltrate positions of power and authority," Michael said before asking, "Where did Tessa get this?"

"She wont say," Victoria replied with a frown before adding, "When I asked her, all she said was that a friend gave it to her."

"A friend, huh?" Michael replied thoughtfully.

"What do you think?"

"If it's legitimate, then Tessa's 'friend' has done us a great boon; however, we need to make sure it is legitimate first."

"What do you suggest?" Michael thought for a few minutes while selecting a few of the names on the list, causing another holographic screen to pop up with the details of that individual and the crimes they had supposedly committed before saying, "We should randomly select a few individuals from this list and perform a deep check into the crimes they have supposedly committed. If it turns out that they are indeed all guilty, then we can start working through this list properly."

"Agreed, however, we need to make sure we do a full check on everyone on this list in the end and find proof. The people are already upset with what remains of the imperial family after everything that has happened. We can't just start lopping heads off, stating that we know you're guilty because some anonymous friend gave us a list saying you are," Victoria replied. 💫💫💫"So what do you think?"

Lorelie asked with a flirtatious smile as she performed a spin for Adam after she and Rowena stepped out of the dressing room, wearing different lingerie.

"Fuck," Aphrodite commented with a lustful stare.

"See, this is what I'm talking about," Adam commented as she admitted the two divas before adding, "Don't you think that Earth lingerie is just so much better and hotter than what you all have been using?"

"Completely," Aphrodite replied as she continued to stare and admire the two women.

"Hey, horny Succuba, get your mind out of the gutter. You're not getting any," Rowena said as she shot Aphrodite with her signature smirk.

"Not yet, I'm not," Aphrodite replied with a knowing smirk of her own that made Rowena raise her eyebrow slightly before she moved into position to begin the next shots. As Eri started taking photos of Lorelie and Rowena in their lingerie, Aphrodite, who didn't or perhaps couldn't look away from the two, asked, "So how soon can you start production on those toys?"

"Why are you asking about them all of a sudden?" Adam inquired as he also stared at the pair of beautiful divas.

"I spoke to my contact at Universal Pleasure about them earlier and although they trust my word on how good they are, they would still like to receive a few samples to try themselves."

"I can have Spector produce them, but where do I send them?" Adam replied.

"Give them to me and I will pass them along."

"Are you sure you're not just hoping to try them out first?" Adam asked as he shot her a side-eye.

"I won't deny that the thought crossed my mind," Aphrodite admitted before adding with a flirtatious smile, "but I would rather try them out with all of you."

"Regardless, the issue of mass production is a problem," Adam said as he ignored her comment before continuing, "at the end of the day, Spector's only one ship. I can get them a few products to test out easily enough, but we can't rely on Spector for mass production."

"That's true, and once word spreads about their success at Universal Pleasure, many lonely and unsatisfied women will want their own toys."

"Does Universal Pleasure have that much influence?" Adam asked in surprise.

"In some circles it does," Aphrodite replied before explaining.

"Universal Pleasure doesn't only cater to men, though admittedly they make up its largest customer base. They also cater to women and even provide services to customers who wish for and can afford a more… unique pleasure experience."

"What do you mean by 'unique'?" Adam asked.

"Sex is only Universal Pleasures' main business that everyone knows about. Their higher-ranked members can request other, more selective services."

"Such as you?" Adam asked.

"Not anymore," Aphrodite replied as she gave Adam a meaningful look before focusing back on her fellow divas as she continued, "I was only one of the special services. Others include sex with other experienced and famous Succuba, being fed on by Brood, underwater sex with aquatic races like the Merinmians and Sirinians."

"So basically the entire thing revolves around sex," Adam commented.

"Sex is good business and unless you're from a race like the S'ene, people will always want sex and pleasure."
