Hearing the horseman say ‘warlock blood’, Mack’s humor turned for better. He may not be able to craft them, but now he had someone who could.

“Yes, warlock blood”

Said Mack, slightly nodding his head, but still not looking at the guy. His gaze kept wandering around the garden, as if what he was saying was just a casual matter.

“Do you know how much that is worth? It’s priceless!”

.

Said the man with a horse head.

“I know, but I also know that I can’t just go around saying ‘I have warlock blood to sell’, My head would be rolling on mud if I did that, but if you can craft serums we can split it 50/50, what do you thing horse head?”

Asked Mack, but still not looking at the man.

“Sounds good, but I need to first gather all materials for that. There are a lot of other things that need to be used and I don’t have all of them here. Let’s do this way. Come here tomorrow. I will have everything ready.”

Said the horseman, a bit eager to craft the thing that he was proud of.

“Ok, I will be here tomorrow…..”

Mack took a slight pause and looked back to the horseman and continued,

“…..but remember, if you somehow you try to plot against me, your head is the one that will roll in the mud tomorrow.”

Said Mack, looking into the horsemen’s eyes

The horseman, seeing Mack’s red eyes looking at him as if seeing his soul, unconsciously took a step back and gulped.

“No tricks, not tricks, I promise. Half is already a lot for the job”.

Said the horseman, shaking his hands, while his dry mouth kept asking him to gulp.

“Good”

Said Mack, already walking back the way they came, and leaving the private garden. He still had to find a place to sleep today and the sky was already darkening.

Walking the streets, Mack found only a few places that worked as a ‘hotel’, he could not read the plaques hanged around, but all of them had this beer symbol, as if it was a common thing to be a pup and a hotel at the same time.

That, until Mack saw a jarring building, it looked like one from Earth, full of glass windows and a modern look in general, really different from the other places around. But it still had the ‘beer’ symbol close to some unrecognizable words.

‘This is more look like what I want’

Thought Mack. Just thinking of sleeping in some of those other places with people screaming all the night on the first floor made him want to kill all of them. Those places were all made of some kind of wood, it was obvious that the sound would be a problem all the night.

‘Maybe that’s why they drink, to be able to sleep like a dead horse.’

Mack walked inside the fancy hotel and saw someone waiting at the entrance for him. The place seemed desert, not a single person apart from the receptionist could be seen.

The girl approached Mack before he could even say anything and half bowed.

“Welcome to Four Seasons. How long will be your stay, Sir?”

Asked the girl, raising her head, and Mack could see clearly how charming the girl was when she came more closely, an amiable smile. All that was important for a job like that.

‘This girl went directly to the point. I like here already.’

Thought Mack, he hated people that talked too much nonsense. 

“A hundred days.”

Said Mack, already waiting to know how much that would cost him.

“Please follow me, Sir. I will walk you to your room.”

Said the girl, already prompting the lead for Mack to follow her.

For Mack’s surprise, the girl didn’t give any price, nor asked for an advance payment. What if he was a beggar? Then realization came, he was not on Earth, this place was a bit more savage compared to Earth, Mack guessed that if someone could not pay, they would probably kill the guy or worst. Maybe sell as a slave?

‘Yes, probably sell as slave.’

Thought Mack, they would not lose money, no matter what. He didn’t see anyone that looked like slaves, nor a place that sell them, but given the reality of this planet, Mack didn’t doubt that slave market was a thing.

Mack stopped thinking useless stuffs and focused on what the girl was saying, they have already reached the room.

“This is your keycard. We don’t have daily cleaning to respect the guest privacy, but you can request to me or any other receptionist you find in the lobby, and the room will be cleaned. As your stay is very long we also recommend that you request laundry service. Apart from that, any special request you have you can contact me or any other receptionist. We will make everything to please or guests”

Said the girl, giving a bit of emphasis to the words ‘please or guests’.

Hearing what the girl said, Mack suddenly had a urge to do something very pleasing with her.

But in the end, he controlled himself, but the curiosity in him was stronger…

“Everything?” 

Asked Mack, just to be sure.

“Everything.”

Said the girl, lowering her head and unbuttoning a single button on her blouse.

Even a door could now understand the meaning of her words.

Mack now looked at the girl with fresh eyes, and paid more attention to the curves of her body.

The girl was very charming, and the thing that caught Mack’s eyes was the girl’s lips and hands, very delicate.

The girl raised her head, and turning his back to Mack, asked with a small voice while putting the keycard on the door.

“May I open for you?”

Mack, now, not dazed in his own thoughts, paid attention to the girl’s back, and the girl had a perfect waist, with an ass that looked like two mountain peaks, waiting to be explored.

“Please, open for me.”

Said Mack, softly touching the girl’s waist.
