- Chapter 28

"Look, I don't want to be here either, but if you would cooperate with me, I'll give you what you asked for in the agreement we made. Alright?! This is simply extremely crucial."

He told you, making eye contact with you as he spoke. You were still angry, but you knew it wouldn't work unless you calmed down.

"Fine, sorry. Let me go...now,
what is this all about?"

You asked, still trying to control your breathing. Scaramouche gave you a small nod before he removed his hands from your body. You watched him closely as he began pacing back and forth in the narrow space of the alley.

"Tonight, at the party...I need you to,"

He paused and looked down. He raised his chin up again and continued to speak.

"I need you to convince Ulfr to sleep with you, or get him in a private room with you. And I need you to add this to his drink-"

Scaramouche withdrew a vial from his pocket. The liquid inside appeared to be dark red.

"-And make sure he drinks all of it. If not, the effects won't be permanent, but it will still affect him for a few hours."

You listened carefully. Your heart raced as you stared at Scaramouche. His face was serious as he continued speaking.

"If you do this, I'll add an extra day to our deal-"

You didnt let him finish his sentence before you grabbed the glass vial from his hands.

"How dare you even suggest
something so disgusting-"

"He has a shit ton of money and likes young girls."

"That sick bastard, of course i'll do it!"

Scaramouche gave you a weak smile.

"Good, let's head back to that maple tree. Now is your chance to start flirting early, it will give you a heads start for later tonight!"

"Shut up!"

Scaramouche meticulously applied your cosmetics as you sat patiently on the end of your bed.

"Don't forget about tonight. Remember, it doesn't matter how he reacts, just try to keep him occupied in his room. I'll handle everything else."

"Everything else? What does that mean?"

He leaned against the dresser and regarded you. He shrugged lightly.

"Don't worry about that,
just do what I ask you to."

He glanced at the clock and sighed. You had ten minutes until the party.

"Put this on,"

Scaramouche commanded as he handed you a bag with a dress in it. You opened the bag and found a beautiful gown. The fabric was light blue and the material was silky. It fit snugly around your figure. Scaramouche instructed you to face the mirror while he strung a lovely matching necklace around your neck. It was simple but elegant - made of silver with a few diamonds set into the pendant. You admired yourself in the mirror.

"Yeah it won't be a problem seducing him,"

You complimented yourself.

"With your glamoured up looks, maybe. But you also need to flirt, and I seriously doubt that you've ever had any romantic interactions so...To help you out, I've written a paper on how to approach someone and how to flirt."

"Bold of you to assume such things of me...
however, all of your romantic encounters
have been with paid prostitutes,"

You replied mockingly.

"Paid prostitutes? That's a new one,"

Scaramouche smirked, obviously enjoying your sarcastic tone.

"Those women were the ones begging me to fuck them!"

You glared at him. He laughed, but you didn't care.

"Okay, fine, we both know you have never had a sexual relationship, but this is different. These men are powerful, wealthy, and some of them even look good. Although I doubt it given that more than 80% are above 50. The one you're aiming for is the worst of them all; regrettably, he is extremely twisted like the rest of them. The unfortunate part about him for you, is that he is still difficult to get, "

Scaramouche explained.

"As long as you make it to his bedroom, you should be safe. If you manage to keep him there a bit longer, you can try to convince him to sleep with you, but the best thing you can do is try to get him drunk."

"Why's that?"

"Because if you get him intoxicated, he won't be able to resist. And it will make it easier for you to take advantage of him. And you'll be doing this for me, so I want you to succeed. Now let's go and finish this, "
Scaramouche said, folding his arms. You stared at him for a moment before nodding.

"Alright."

You both quickly left your chambers and stepped into the hall. Scaramouche led you towards the main entryway where many people were mingling and laughing, talking. Most of the guests seemed to be nobles or well-known members of society.The air was electric with excitement. Scaramouche stopped outside the door leading to the ballroom. You followed him inside and scanned the crowd.

There were hundreds of men and women dressed in their finest party attire gathered together in one place. Scaramouche caught your gaze and beckoned you to follow him as he moved through the crowd. After a few minutes, you finally spotted Ulfr. He was standing behind the bar and chatting with other people.
