As a level 28 wizard, Edwin knew he could safely travel at night. There weren't high level monsters anywhere nearby, and the weaker ones that sometimes wandered close to the road at night were free experience points. He kept the purple crystal orb at the end of his wooden staff lit up with a simple Light spell, just so he could see the road ahead, maybe attract some curious monsters, and reassure any other travellers that it was just an unthreatening, maybe slightly shorter than average human wizard in some ordinary blue robes and a big hat.

With only 35 experience points left until level 29, just one random hostile monster or bandit or whatever would do the trick. He couldn't help but itch for a fight. There were so many good spells that he would have the opportunity to learn then, including Lesser Invisibility. As he walked down the gravel road in the dark, he wondered what kind of hijinks he could get up to with that...

Just before he reached the dense patch of woods just outside of town, he saw a shape in a ditch. Brightening the light on his staff with a simple wave, he illuminated it and saw... A girl? Actually, a catgirl. Memories of the last few times he had to save someone flooded in.

"Are you okay?" he said as he rushed closer, dropping his staff on the ground, its light still illuminating the area. Wearing a plain beige dress and some ordinary brown shoes, this white-haired catgirl was almost face down in the dirt. Although she didn't look wounded, she wasn't answering...

He rolled her over and got a closer look. She very faintly stirred, relief flooding through him as her head turned slightly and a little grumble escaped her lips; at least she was alive. If she weren't asleep in a bad way, she'd be so cute: busty, eyes closed, lips open just enough to be a little bit of a tease, the fuzzy ears on top of her head to top off her long hair that was still perfect even though she was passed out in a...

Edwin tried to shake her awake, resuming her stirring. She let out a groaning meow as one of her eyes tried to flutter open.

"Are you okay?" he asked again, shaking her again.

"Five more minut... hmhmng," she mumbled out.

"Wake up!" he said.

She gained awareness more quickly, her cat ears stiffening as she seemed to realize she wasn't in a bedroom or wherever it was catgirls liked to sleep.

"Oh... oh, where am I?" she said, still groggy. Her voice was sweet and quiet. She wiped her eyes as she slowly tried to get up; he reached out to help her, and seeming confused at first, it took her a moment to accept his help. Pulling gently upward on her soft hand, he helped her stand up. She was about his height, and scanning her body, her dress was somehow less dirty than it ought to have been given the circumstances.

"I found you in this ditch," Edwin said. "Are you okay?"

"Oh... I don't know, maybe I fell or something? I can't remember..."

"Hold still for a second. I'm going to cast a Scan spell to see if there's anything wrong..."

Edwin cast the spell, and he got a basic overview of her. Level 3 catgirl, missing a few hit points, no status effects. Her highest stat was luck, but that was all the spell told him.

"Huh? Oh, you're a wizard... Am I okay? I dunno what happened..."

"You're fine," he said. "Just a little hurt. What's the last thing you remember?"

She rubbed her head. "I was maybe... Something hit me in the head and I passed out. Do you see my backpack anywhere? I'm still dizzy... At least my head doesn't hurt all that much."

Edwin looked around, knowing it wasn't there. He took the opportunity to pick up his staff.

"Sorry. I think someone hit you in the back of the head and took it."

"Aww... At least it didn't have much inside. I'm going to the capital for the fireworks festival, and I was going to... oh, that's not that important."

He was curious, but decided not to probe for now. "Mhm. Went there once, pretty good. Have you ever been? The snacks are..." He caught himself getting off topic. "Nevermind. I want to make sure you get to town safely. I assume you were headed North; that's where I was headed, and town's not that far away."

"Uhhh... Yeah!" She seemed nervous. "Actually... I had some gold with me and I was going to get an inn room, but unless that bandit or whatever left some of it behind, I don't think I'll be staying at an inn anytime soon. Do you know anywhere I can stay for just the night?"

Edwin figured it was worth helping a random cute catgirl in need. "The capital's three days away, right? You need this more than me, so..."

As he got out his coin pouch and fished around inside, she seemed nervous.

"Oh! There's no need for that, I can't take money... I feel really bad about taking money without doing anything in return. I couldn't live with myself if I did, I hate stealing..." She held up her hands as if she were begging him not to give her anything.

"It's fine," he said, starting to take out a nice stack of coins. "Wizards get a lot of gold anyway."

"Wait, if you're fine with it... Can I stay with you tonight instead?"

"Huh?"

"You know, at your place... If that's okay."

Edwin didn't really see how that was different, but if she was in need and couldn't take money, then that was also fine. He put the coins back in the pouch and stowed it away.

"I mean... Sure, if you really want."

"Yippee!" she said. "Thank you so much!" She rushed in closer for a hug; not expecting it, his fight or flight instincts got scared for a moment, but he quickly calmed down. It was just a hug. He let it happen, unsure how to respond at first, then he reluctantly and gently put his arms around her.

"It's going to be alright," he said, slowly becoming aware of how much she was pressing her body against his. He had been trying to ignore her chest, but with it touching his...

Eventually, she pulled away, leaving him feeling a little warm inside.

"You can lead the way," she said. "Oh, and I'm Saffron! That's my name. Mhm."

"Edwin, at your service," he said. "It's not far. Let's go, Saffron."

"Sure thing!"

~~~~~ ~~~~~

She walked alongside him, and they chatted together on the way back. The air was cool, and even though Edwin's robes were reasonably warm, he was still looking forward to being in his house, where he could warm up the air with a little magic and be as cozy as he liked. And if Saffron was cold, she wasn't showing it.

"So," Saffron said, "You live there all alone?"

"Yeah. I got it after a... Well, sometimes adventurers get lucky and get paid very well for a mission. I had to run away from so many high level monsters, and I almost died a couple of times, but it was worth it, since they just gave me the house as payment after I returned the amulet."

"Oh, that has to be so scary... I can't imagine risking my life like that!" Saffron said.

"I try to leave those types of jobs to high level adventurers now," Edwin said. "Well, emphasis on 'try'."

Saffron nodded, walking ahead of him. Her tail was swaying as they had their casual chat, bringing his attention to her legs; he could have sworn her dress was longer earlier, but maybe the adrenaline of seeing someone who might have been in danger distracted him from its actual length earlier.

He tried not to stare as she started speaking. "Me neither. I kiiiiinda wanted to be an adventurer, but I decided to take it easy instead."

Something from earlier popped back into his mind. "Oh, by the way... What were you going to the festival for anyway?"

Saffron giggled, turning her head as she walked to look at him with a smile. "Wellll... Promise you won't judge me."

"If you can shock me with it, I'll be impressed," Edwin said. A guess popped into his mind, but he dismissed it since she seemed too innocent for that, despite her looks.

"So I also had some lingerie in my backpack before it got stolen, and..." Her demeanor grew flirty all of a sudden, painting her body in a new light. "Lots of people come to festivals looking for a good time..."

"You!?" Edwin said in disbelief.

"Mhm. I go from festival to festival for it. People just can't get enough of catgirls!"

Her body seemed different; her chest swayed as she walked, and her tail almost seemed like it was inviting him closer as it waved with every step she took. Did she just start walking like that, or was hearing about this enough to make him look at her differently? He couldn't tell.

"Impressed then?" Saffron said.

"Yeah... I mean, I don't mind, I just wasn't expecting it, that's all... Are you at least happy doing it?"

"Why wouldn't I be? It's perfect!"

"Huh... I knew a stripper once, and she wasn't as enthusiastic as you."

Saffron shrugged. "Are you happy being a wizard?"

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" Realizing he said almost the exact same thing as her, he thought about it and paused for a moment. "Oh. I see. Okay, they're actually really similar now that I think about it..."

"Sometimes you blow something up or sit on a guy's face, but a lot of the time you're doing something boring," Saffron said. "Shame being a wizard is a lot more dangerous..."

He figured it would be the other way around, but apparently not.

The city gates were approaching in the distance, along with the orange light of the few windows that remained lit this late.

"Oooh!" Saffron said. "Finally... I could have kept going all night, but I'm so glad we're almost there..."

Edwin couldn't help but notice the innuendo. Was it on purpose? If it wasn't, he wondered if he could stop noticing all these things about her and the way she spoke and walked and looked, or if he was doomed to think about them all night.

"Yep," Edwin said. "It was a long and hard walk..."

Neither of them could help it anymore, and they both burst out giggling.

~~~~~ ~~~~~

Edwin's two story house was by the edge of the city walls, away from any of the gates, and flanked by two other houses with extremely narrow alleys between them. As usual, he peeked inside both alleys with a focused beam of orb light, just in case anyone was hiding in there. It wasn't necessary or all that helpful, but it made him feel better.

"Huh? Did you see something in there?" Saffron asked.

"No, just being careful."

"Whew, good... I'm glad nobody's around to hurt you," Saffron said.

Edwin was feeling the same way about her, but wondered why she was the one to say it. She was the one who needed protecting, after all. He walked towards his front door, then waved his hand as he undid the Lock spell.

As he stepped inside, Saffron excitedly came in. Edwin clapped his hands, and the lights turned on; the fireplace ignited as well, filling the cool house with a sudden surge of warmth. On the wall beside it was a mounted deer head trophy, mounted wolf head trophy, and a large gray rock mounted on a similar wooden plaque. The animals were from the previous owner; the rock was a trophy he got himself.

"Oh, your house is so lovely!" Saffron said. "But uhhh... What's that rock?"

"Golem head. Part of it, actually. I fought a stone golem on a job once and went up three levels in one fight," Edwin said. "I really shouldn't have done that, but the terrain was at least in my favor..."

Saffron recoiled. "A stone golem? What were you thinking?"

"It was far away, so I only got hit by it like once," he said. "...It did knock out 80% of my HP in one hit though. And, you know, I think it was worth it. I could probably take out another one."

"That seems like a bad idea, but... okay..." Saffron seemed worried.

"By the way," Edwin said, wanting to change the subject, "I forgot something... You still have some dirt on your dress, let me just..."

He waved his staff and cast a Clean spell, causing the dirt on her clothes to evaporate into ephemeral sparkles.

"Oh!" Saffron said. "Thank you!"

"Anyway, make yourself at home," Edwin said, setting his staff by the front door, and tossing his big hat like a boomerang. It landed neatly on the hat rack in the corner, spinning briefly on the rounded end and coming to a stop. He could never resist the urge to do that.

"Great toss!" Saffron said.

He nodded. "There's a guest bedroom upstairs you can use, and the bathrooms are new and fancy, and also, if you're hungry, just grab something from the kitchen. No need to ask." He started leading her through the house, and she followed him into the kitchen, which was unusually small for a house of this size: the sheer size of the brick oven made the room cramped, and when the oven was on, disappointingly hot. At least he had ice spells to cancel it out.

"Maybe later," Saffron said. "I'm not actually that hungry."

"Oh, and when you leave, you can bring some with you. Some of it's gonna go bad in a week or two, so someone has to eat it."

"Thank you so much!" she said.

"And I know you said you didn't want to take it earlier," Edwin said as they left the kitchen, "But you're going to need to get an inn room or two on your way up. I'll give you some gold in the morning."

She shook her head as they kept touring the house, pausing in the dining room--more of a banquet hall given its size.

"Whoa, hey," Saffron said, "I can't really take any of it... I'll just see if I can find somewhere else to sleep. I did that today, didn't I? I can find a way."

"It's much safer, and besides, I'll probably be swimming in gold eventually anyway..."

"From adventuring? But that might get you killed," she said, looking around nervously. "And I... Taking money for nothing goes against my principles."

Edwin didn't get it. What was her deal? Free food and lodging didn't strain her morals at all, which was fine, and she didn't like taking money, which is something he knew not everyone was proud to do, but he had never seen anyone who was fine with one but not the other. Was gold special in people's minds, and had he been wizarding for too long to forget that?

An idea formed in his head. Maybe she was willing to accept money in exchange for something else: perhaps some work? But he didn't have that much he needed anyone else to do, except maybe dusting the attic, which he never bothered to do since all his stuff could fit elsewhere. Most of the second floor was dedicated to his bedroom and his wizarding stuff, so maybe he'd have to find space eventually.

Of course, another thought occurred to him, but he didn't want to take advantage of her, even if he was paying her fairly.

"Hmmm... Will you take some gold if you do something for me?"

Saffron jumped at the opportunity. "Oh! Yes! What do you need, Edwin? As long as it's something I'm good at, maybe I can take it after all!"

Her eagerness was a little unnerving, and he wondered for a brief moment if she had a specific thing in mind; the thought made him almost shiver with nervous arousal, but he resisted it.

"So when I got this house, I never bothered to clean the attic. It's still full of dust and--"

"--Don't you have a Clean spell?" she interrupted.

"Well, yeah, but--"

She interrupted him again before he could explain that it only worked on fabric. "--Come on, I know you're trying to make me feel better about taking it, but I want to give you your money's worth." Before he could respond, she continued talking, this time slipping back into her seductive voice. "Though, I wonder... Maybe you'd like a night with me?"

"I... Huh? Oh..." he said, taken aback by the suggestion, even though he realized he should have expected it.

She came closer to him. "I'm worth a lot of gold, right? I'd actually be doing something you'd really, really like..."

"I, um..." His face flushed with warmth, and just looking at her and hearing the offer sent a tingly feeling through him.

"You have been such a nice boy," she said, her demeanor throwing him off even more. "I think you deserve to relax after such a long trip..."

Arousal filled him. "H... Hey, I'm not sure if..."

He bumped against a chair, only just now realizing that he was slowly backing up.

"Hey, come on cutie," she said, "It's alright. Just say the word and I'll take you upstairs and show you a good time... Besides, don't you want this to be fair?"

"I don't want to, um, take advantage of you..." he said as he slid the chair back against the banquet table.

"Nahhh," she said. "To be honest, you are really cute... I've been wondering how you'd look underneath me, without those robes on. And besides, if you have any hangups about sex... You can ignore them with me. It's okay. There's no rational reason to be scared, isn't there?"

It was weird that she brought up that last point, but also, it really made sense to him. It was just like her gold hangup; a little irrational thing... And wizards like him were smart, so he could easily push past that. And were her eyes always purple? Catgirls had weird hair and eye colors sometimes, so probably.

"We can do all kinds of things together," Saffron said, stepping forward and bringing her lovely chest much closer to him. He let it happen at first, then wondered what he was thinking and that of course he couldn't have sex with some catgirl, then flipped back to thinking it was alright... His mind felt like it was getting twisted into a pretzel. A horny pretzel.

Saffron put her arms around his shoulders, looking into his eyes. Hers were so pretty...

"Come on," she said with a mix of seductiveness and cuteness, "I'm a busty catgirl who wants to have sex with you... Don't you wanna relax?"

He felt his resistance crumbling. Why was he resisting?

...He found himself getting led by her, his head getting foggy as his erection pulsed underneath his robes.

"Hey, Edwin, where are the stairs anyway?"

"Uh... down the hall and to the left..."

She took him through the wider section of the hallway and the oddly narrow staircase. He would have talked about the hassle it caused whenever he needed to move furniture up to the second floor, but he was too horny and conflicted yet oddly compliant to focus on that. She looked back and stared into his eyes as they crested the top of the stairs; were her eyes always so pretty and alluring? They seemed to slightly glow, no doubt just a catgirl thing...

"Aren't you excited?" she asked. "Just you and me upstairs... No dangerous adventuring, just you and me... Imagine that, nothing around to hurt you... You're safe with me."

"Safe with... No, you're safe with me..." He was more than twenty levels higher than her, after all. What was she going on about?

"That's the guest bedroom, right?" she said as she walked past it.

"Yeah... keep going," he said. She was making a lot of eye contact, but whenever she wasn't, he found himself staring at her legs and catching glimpses of her chest and... how long had he been holding her hand for? Her tail brushed against his robes, sliding against his legs and then making him shiver as its tip passed over his erection...

"I feel... weird," he said, wondering if something was wrong.

Saffron giggled. "I like seeing you react like this... it's cute. Getting led around by a catgirl just makes your brain melt, doesn't it?"

It really was. And her eyes were pretty. And her ears and her tail and everything... Yeah. Nothing was wrong, he was just captivated by them, and he wasn't used to that. It felt like a good explanation.

She took him into his bedroom; despite being warmly lit, nearly every bit of fabric from the rug to the bedsheets to the curtains had a similar kind of dark blue sky pattern with white constellation dots on it. It was the one room he bothered to decorate fully to his own liking. A few of his robes, mostly in darker colors, were visible from the half-open closet door.

"Please, feel free to take all those off," Saffron said. "I bet you're such a cute boy underneath..." There was a little lingering resistance inside him, but not enough to keep him from starting to remove his robes as she watched.
