Chapter 34: Chapter 34 - Aphrodite’s Powers

Alicia looked at the loser before her, who was trying to offer his help and she couldn’t help but be disgusted by his presence.

Who was he trying to help?

Alicia didn’t want his help. She had messed up and she deserved punishment.

"Who the fuck is this loser?" She said in an icy tone. "Who does he think he is."

Axel was once again surprised as he immediately moved away from Alicia as he felt that if he stuck around for a few more minutes then he would be... in danger, strangely enough.

"He’s a potential investor. Don’t worry about him, I’ll take care of it," Lucius said with a smile.

Lucius loved looking at how both Aphrodite and Alicia had refused him without a second thought. He loved just how attached they were to him. It was to the point where Lucius knew that no matter what happened, they would never try to see another men because in their mind, there was no one better than himself.

"Follow me, Axel. I’ll show you how things get done for production around here."

Lucius pushed the door and entered the production room where two female employees were already working. It seemed they had grasped how to make both Erotic Perfume and Love Potion to perfection.

Axel was mindblown as he noticed that once again, two beautiful women were working for him. In fact, he had realized that everyone in his store were beauties. He honestly had no idea how any of this was possible.

’Just what does he have that I don’t?’ He thought with a frown as he glanced at Lucius. ’I’m just as good-looking, I have more money, I’m more successful, I have more power. Why are those women so obsessed with that man?’

Axel was frustrated because of how badly his first two attempts had failed. However, he wasn’t one to quit just yet.

"That’s good. How many can you make in one hour?" He asked.

"Probably around four Love Potions and two Erotic Perfumes. The process is quite long if we want to reach the quality desired."

Axel nodded. "I see, that’s good enough. What kind of deal were you looking for?"

Lucius smiled as he liked where this was going.

"Because I’m doing the production and getting the ingredients and you are only the person selling the products. The best I can offer you is 10% of all revenue."

Axel frowned as he gritted his teeth. "10%?" He started laughing. "That’s a joke, right? No one will ever buy anything in this store! It was only lucky that my sons found this place. So, don’t push your luck."

Lucius just smiled as he didn’t say anything.

This was his final offer, and he knew that the Axel Smith would be the one to cave. He was the one who needed this, not Lucius. After all, he could always go and see someone else.

"20%?"

"10%, take it or leave it."

Axel gritted his teeth as he turned around and left the production room.

"Fine, but I want you to let me have a talk with this woman and this one. Alone. Without you."

He obviously pointed toward both Aphrodite and Alicia, who just stood with a frown, wondering what this loser would want out of them.

Lucius couldn’t care less as he knew that no matter what this man offered Alicia and Aphrodite would never betray him.

"Sure... you can talk with them. Let’s say, five minutes?"

Axel laughed. "I’ll be done in two."

"Let’s go you two... follow me!" Axel said with a smirk as he headed upstairs to be alone.

Lucius already knew what the men wanted.

He was just like Alex. He wanted those two women for himself. However, it was pity that it would not go the way he had planned. After all, there was something he ignored about Alicia and Aphrodite.

It was that the two of them are obsessed with Lucius. No matter what he offered they would never budge.

"I can give each of you whatever you desired. Just ask for it."

Alicia and Aphrodite both looked at each other with a frown.

Axel smirked. "However, in exchange, both of you will have to leave this place and join me."

When he noticed that the two of them were not talking yet, Axel knew that they were thinking and that was exactly what he wanted. Their reactions were definitely different when their "Master" wasn’t around which was why he had asked to talk to them alone.

"Money? Fame? Hell, I’m sure I could make the two of you into top tier actresses! With your beauty, it’s already a done deal!"

"What do you say?"

They glanced at one another and started laughing.

"You really a fucking loser," the two of them said at the same time. "Fucking pathetic."

Axel was surprised, unsure why this was their reaction. No one had ever reacted this strongly to one of his offers.

"Why would we ever go with you and leave Master behind? He’s better than you in everything..."

"Y-You!" Axel tried to curse them out. "I-I... can literally buy your entire family if I want to."

They just continued laughing even harder.

A strong pink energy began emitting from Aphrodite’s eyes after a few moments, and the moment it did Axel felt like he was in danger.

He tried to run away, but before he could, Aphrodite smirked and stared at him dead in the eyes.

"Get on your knees."

Axel’s pupils also became pink and with a quick nod. He got on his knees.

"Good job." Aphrodite smirked. "Now, act like a dog."

Axel started barking and trying to piss like a dog, raising one of his legs up.

"Good dog," Aphrodite said with a smirk as she got closer to him, placing one hand on the top of his shoulders, looking into his eyes even more seriously. "You are now Master’s slave. You will listen to his every word and do everything he says. Am I clear?"

Axel gulped as he had no idea what was happening. However, for some reason, something changed within himself that told him to listen to whatever words came out of Aphrodite’s mouth.

"I understand," he said in a very stern tone of voice.

"Good, let’s go downstairs now, doggy."
