  Cole confronts Cinder about all this tomfoolery and strikes a deal with her.

  -x-X-x-

  He's tempted for half a moment to just let it go… or maybe even mess with her a little bit more like he did previously. But now that its his lien on the line, Cole isn't as interested in pying games anymore.

  Even as 'Emerald' begins her approach, Cole lets his smile drop and holds up a hand.

  "Sorry… but you can't expect me to just let this stand. I'm all for letting you watch, but if you want to participate Ms. Fall, we're going to have to come to an arrangement."

  The hungry look on the fake Emerald's face freezes as she pauses for a moment before tilting her head to the side.

  "… Is this more rolepy Cole? Because I'm not sure I understand."

  Cole just smiles politely and shakes his head.

  "No, it's not. Please don't insult my intelligence by pying dumb Ms. Fall. In case it wasn't obvious by this point, I've been aware of your presence from the beginning. I just didn't mind letting you watch, as I already said."

  It's at that moment that the real Emerald reveals herself and the fake Emerald shimmers out of view to be repced by Cinder Fall, CEO of Fall Industries.

  The CEO is extremely beautiful in person, Cole has to admit. He's seen her a couple times in newspaper articles or on his scroll, but neither print nor such a small screen does her justice. If her long bck mane draped over one shoulder or piercing amber eyes aren't enough to draw one in, then the rest of her beautiful body is.

  He's pretty sure she never intended for him to see her naked like this, but as… here they are.

  "H-How can you see through my Sembnce?!"

  Emerald's choked response causes Cinder to whip her head around and snarl.

  "Emerald! He did NOT say he could! But now… cover me! Immediately!"

  Her secretary squeaks and a moment ter Cole watches as a fiery red dress shimmers into pce over Cinder's body. It's not really there though, is it? Huh, interesting. He'd thought Cinder was the one with some sort of illusion sembnce, but in the end… it was Emerald? Cole had known she'd been on it the whole time, but he hadn't known she was the perpetrator.

  Looking like she was going to give Emerald a severe dressing down ter, Cinder turns back to him and narrows her eyes as she crosses her arms over her chest.

  "You were not in fact aware of my appearance from the beginning, Mister Cobalt. Let me guess… judging by the usage of your Scroll recently… there are cameras that have allowed someone else you're in contact with to see the truth, aren't there?"

  Huh. She was smarter than he gave her credit for. Smiling slightly, doing his level best to not give anything away, Cole just shrugs.

  "I can neither confirm nor deny the veracity of that statement."

  Emerald looks at him a little scandalized… but Cinder smirks, seeming to find amusement in his words.

  "Spoken like a try businessman, Cole Cobalt. You mentioned an… arrangement before? Do we need to bring your handler into these negotiations?"

  Cole chuckles and shakes his head.

  "That won't be necessary. I'm more than willing to make a separate, personal side deal with just you Ms. Fall. I am not unaware of your situation."

  There's a fsh of something in Cinder's eyes at that, even as she lifts a single brow.

  "Oh?"

  Pretending like he didn't see it, Cole simply nods.

  "A woman of your stature can't be found cavorting with someone like me. I get it. That's why you sent Emerald here, both as a scout and a patsy of sorts."

  Emerald makes an offended noise in the back of her throat, but Cole only has eyes for Cinder at this point. Sure, Emerald had been a fun y… but you didn't waste time with the secretary when you had her gorgeous femme fatale of a boss standing right in front of you. Made all the better by the knowledge that Cinder wasn't wearing a stitch of clothing right now, even if he couldn't see her naked body anymore… for the time being.

  "You don't want anyone to know you were here… and to be crystal clear, I don't want to tell anyone you were here. I can promise you, even if we can't come to a deal, that knowledge of your presence will not be leaked by me or mine."

  The tension in Cinder's shoulders rexes a little bit as she stares at him wordlessly for several long moments. Finally, she hums.

  "That is… surprisingly generous of you, Mister Cobalt."

  Cole grins.

  "I'm a generous guy, Ms. Fall. Besides, I'm confident we're going to be able to make a deal here. I have something you want after all, and I'm not greedy. A hundred thousand lien and I'm all yours."

  Emerald sucks in a breath at that number. Cole knows it's probably more than Glynda charged for his services originally. That's because the Beacon Headmistress was singurly incentivized to have him fuck and breed as many women as possible, even if she wound up paying him out of her own pocket.

  But Cole didn't really care about producing dozens of silver-eyed babies if he was being honest. What he wanted was to have a proper nest egg of his own so that if he ever needed to, he could break away from Glynda and Beacon and be able to set himself up somewhere new with a nice, hefty amount of money.

  Oh sure, he'd still breed as many women as Glynda put in front of him, and so far attending Beacon and being the leader of Team CWBY was far from intolerable. But Cole had to think about the future. It was always important to have back up pns.

  "… A hundred thousand lien. You say you're not greedy and then put quite the price on your services, Mister Cobalt."

  Cole grins and shrugs.

  "I know what I'm worth Ms. Fall. I'm sure that Emerald got a very good deal… Almost too good, no? And so you decided to py this game to investigate and find out what was really going on here. But by now you know the truth. My Sembnce does indeed provide a significant boost in Aura to the women I have sex with."

  There it is. The slightest twitch as Cinder gives herself away. She's a consummate professional but Cole has been around liars his entire life. She can't hide it from him. Though that doesn't stop her from trying.

  "Aura? I believe you're here to provide a breeding service, no?"

  Cole just smiles, making it clear that he knows exactly why she was really here. Instead of answering her question, he continues on like she didn't even ask it.

  "What you may not know, since you didn't go through the proper channels, is the following. First, the women I'm with only get a boost if I cum inside of them. Second, while the rgest boost happens upon the first creampie, if there are not numerous subsequent creampies shortly afterwards, then the original boost is liable to disappear. Third, the likelihood of me getting you pregnant is extremely high due to the way Aura pys havoc on birth control. And fourth and finally, if you DO wind up becoming pregnant off of our time together, you're going to want to carry the baby to term lest you upset my 'handler' as you put it. She's very invested in such things."

  As Cole gets to the end of that speech, he shrugs again.

  "I'm being as honest as I can be with you, Ms. Fall. That way you can go into this potential arrangement with both eyes wide open. The price remains a hundred thousand lien though."

  Of course, what's left unsaid is the falsehoods mixed among the truths. Specifically the part about needing to fuck multiple times to 'solidify' the Aura Boost that a woman gets from him the first time he cums inside of her. That part was a lie that Glynda had made up to ensure the chances of pregnancy were exceedingly high, or so Amber had told him.

  But that was the trick to a good lie. If you couldn't obfuscate the truth and HAD to directly fib about something, then the best way to do so was by bookending it with plenty of honesty.

  Technically, Cole could have just told Cinder the whole truth, offered to fuck her a single time for the hundred thousand lien and called it a day then and there. But he figured he owed Glynda at least this much, plus Cinder definitely owed HIM for her attempted subterfuge in the first pce.

  Mulling over his words, Cinder hums consideringly.

  "… I appreciate the honesty, Mister Cobalt. It is always nice to be able to go into a business deal like this with both eyes open."

  The way she says that… Cole can't help but wonder how many businessmen have been tricked in some way by Emerald's Sembnce in Cinder's favor. Just off the top of his head, he can think of a dozen ways in which Emerald's Sembnce would make her a master thief. Thinking up methods for an illusion sembnce to be used to trick or fool men in a boardroom or conference room is a little harder, but Cole chalks that up to his own ck of experience in the subject.

  Not that he pns to try to expose them or call her out on it. If nothing else, Cole can respect a good hustle. Besides, what does he care about Cinder Fall does with a bunch of strangers in stuffy suits? In the end, all he wants… is her money.

  "Very well. I can see the value in the arrangement and as I'm sure you know, a hundred thousand lien is of little to no consequence to one such as me. We have a deal. Though I do have one demand."

  Cole raises an eyebrow at that.

  "Yes?"

  Cinder smirks and nods her head towards the bed.

  "I am on top. Always."

  Hah. He should have known. A grin spreads across his face as he shrugs easily.

  "Works for me."

  It was no sweat off of his back if she wasn't the kind of woman who liked to be put on her back. In fact, it made perfect sense to him that she wouldn't be. A strong, independent woman like Cinder Fall would not accept being beneath a man. Not even a man who she was paying for his body.

  Given just how many women he was already fucking and how many he would be fucking in the future, Cole didn't mind one bit giving Cinder exactly what she wanted. Especially when she's able to transfer him the lien in mere minutes once she has Emerald retrieve her Scroll.

  Of course, there is the slight worry that Cinder is having Emerald use her Sembnce to trick him into seeing numbers on his Scroll that aren't really there, but such a gambit can't st forever, nor did the two women have time to discuss any pns since he exposed them for their deception.

  In the end, Cole is willing to trust it as he ys back on the bed and watches Cinder stalk forward, the fiery red dress that Emerald had illusioned her to be wearing burning up off of her body in a dispy that has him raising an eyebrow at her assistant.

  Emerald just blushes and looks away. While he'd built up something of an easygoing rapport with Cinder's PA these past couple of days, Cole can tell that its all out the window now that he's wheelin' and dealin' with her boss. He's above her paygrade now… literally.

  Cinder climbs atop him and Cole's hands are there to meet her until she sps them away from her hips.

  "No touching."

  That gets a raised eyebrow from him, but for the money she's paying, he supposes he can abide by such a rule. Cinder grabs his cock with her hand and slowly strokes his throbbing mast for a few moments before looking at him with a smirk.

  "I did wonder how much you knew back when you engaged Emerald in your silly little 'rolepy' in the common room. But you didn't choose my chair for your games. Did you not know for sure which one I was in?"

  Cole smirks right back up at her.

  "No. I knew exactly where you were. I chose the chair I chose on purpose."

  Cinder hums for a moment before nodding.

  "Cute."

  Then, she lifts herself up and slowly begins impaling herself upon his cock. Cole can immediately tell that she's taking her time specifically to avoid giving much of a reaction. Off to the side, Emerald is watching while biting her lower lip, still naked as she takes in the view of her boss slowly but surely sinking down on Cole's member.

  Eventually, about halfway down his length, Cinder comes to a stop, too tight to go further. She's… moist but not truly wet yet, her pussy walls dragging along his shaft and clinging to him tightly. Cole watches as she slowly pulls herself back up and then slides herself back down, using him more like a toy than a man while beginning to ride him.

  As time goes on, the friction creates arousal and she gets wetter and wetter until she's properly bouncing upon his cock. However, there's still a portion of his member that she's not reaching, his cock not fully inside of her yet. He also hasn't bottomed out against her cervix either.

  Cole gets the impression that Cinder Fall, despite being incredibly sexy and incredibly vivacious, is not very used to having sex with a man. It's possible that her confident fa?ade hides an inexperienced woman who has spent most of her time refusing to mix business with pleasure while spending far too much of that time on business.

  The question is… does he want to risk what little he's built with Cinder so far by testing that theory? Hmm…
