Reincarnated as the Only Human

Astra PoV

Now that Renna was in the back talking to her sister about those things - and now that both Aethisia and Cici were relatively content with how empty their balls were - I could get back to managing everything without any interruptions.

Having to take out all the old furniture and replace it was a bit annoying for all of us involved, but after I made it known that tonight they would have a few bottles of wine to uncork and drink freely in celebration they all were rather enthusiastic about it, so things got done quickly and efficiently.

We had a small amount of the product here all ready to be displayed and set up prettily for the opening day, and on top of that we had an acceptable amount of space to work with to run some ’tests’ with, which mainly consisted of uncoordinated and clumsy ’shoppers’ as we tried to prepare the store for the inevitable.

Since everything was in glass bottles I was damn sure someone was going to knock something down or slam one of the bottles on accident, which meant we needed to try and mitigate the amount of accidents that happened as best we could... and be prepared to take care of them whenever they happened.

All of this was done while Renna continued to talk with her sister, so I was the one who had to endure the pestering of Fenkar as she begged me to promise her that she could pound my pussy once or thrice as payment for her labors, and she even asked if I could give her a blowjob here and now since I had ’forced’ her to pop a boner.

The older futanari was as ’irritating’ as ever, but sucking her cock in the back wasn’t a problem for me, not when she tasted so sweet and continuously showered me in praise as she buttered me up for the future.

Things went smoothly for quite a while, to the point that I was a little worried they were getting into an argument or they had lost track of time back there, but before I could muster myself to interrupt them someone decided to walk through the doors - after knocking, of course.

Two someone’s, actually, and seeing them made me blink a few times since I wasn’t expecting either of them, let alone them together; Miss Hertanc looked around curiously while Duchess Leonisa just made a beeline towards me.

”Miss Astra, I found myself nearby and decided to come visit~! I hope that isn’t... unwanted..?”

Her red eyes flicked over towards Fenkar before looking back down into my own, waiting for a response; I shook my head and glanced at Miss Hertanc before saying ”It’s a pleasure to have you here, Duchess Leonisa. Right now my Lady is discussing something with her sister in private, so... I apologize...”

”No need, I came without warning~! Encountered Miss Hertanc on the way and she expressed interest in visiting as well! Everyone is eagerly awaiting the opening of the new winery owned by Duchess Poinset, I promise you that~!”

”I should hope so! Such a cunning and skilled businesswoman like Renna opening a winery is a clear indication that something fun is about to happen~! Ah, and you can go ahead and spread the word that the Fenkar Pack is sponsoring the winery as well, Miss Hertanc~! I am certain that’ll earn you a little bit of credit...”

Fenkar didn’t seem to have a terribly high opinion of the Horsekin, though like I’ve seen before Miss Hertanc didn’t seem to care at all as she just remained composed, nodding in agreement and continuing to look around curiously.

”It’s a beautiful store; prime real estate, perfectly maintained, gorgeous furnishings... all of it’s crafted by the Duchess’ sister, no? I have a few pieces of hers; some of the best furniture I own. Reliable stuff.”

With a sudden increase in the amount of Nobility around, most of the workers seemed rather... ’agitated’ as they were at a loss of what to do, so I just guided the three into the back and decided to wait for Renna back here, which seemed... like a bit of a mistake since the three of them seemed to enjoy trading thinly veiled barbs.

Trying my best to just ignore how Fenkar teased Leonisa with how often she had been ramming her dick into Renna, or how excellent I was at my ’job’, I brewed up some tea and ’searched around’ for some biscuits and other little treats that could be kept fresh in a basket, setting them out for everyone.

”What brings you here, Duchess? Is it really just a visit..?”

The Lionkin smiled at me as she sipped on her tea, her eyes flashing a little with amusement; after a few moments she finally replied ”It is indeed just a visit. This is a nice break from the monotony of work, and it allows me to ask a few questions as well~! Like whether or not I could reserve an order or two of some of your finest wines before the store opens?”

Since she seemed to be here entirely for this ’visit’ I relaxed a little, and since that was something I could make happen at any time and without any difficulty at all I just replied with ”That depends on how incentivized we are to do so? This is my Lady’s store, so there are no special favors guaranteed for anyone, save the Queen.”

Leonisa smiled even more at that, while Miss Hertanc’s lip twitched as she stared at me from behind her teacup, the Horsekin weighing my words as well; with the Lionkin weighing my words carefully she was able to make her own offer first, which was a more... personalized one.

”We could barter for a bottle to accompany you on your way to work, no? I have a few gems that have gone unused for a little while now, ones that I believe would be suitable for one of your pieces...”

With that the ’negotiations’ were underway, with all three of the Nobles turning to me to offer me some incredible things in exchange for a few bottles; all of them wove in the promise of sex with their offers as well, which was... definitely telling, but very welcome~!
