“This is part of helping you dress like a girl! Its one thing to wear a skirt or dress, and you have such long hair, it’d be a shame to let you keep it a mess.” 

Cinder winced as he felt the brush pull through another knot in his hair. “Be careful.” 

“Sit still and it wont feel like I’m pulling your hair.” 

Cinder folded his arms in front of his chest, though his eyes stayed glued to his reflection in the mirror. He had to admit, Weiss did know what she was talking about as far as making sure he could dress and look the part of a girl. When he had asked her for help, he almost expected her to laugh and send him away. And yet, here she was, helping a mere servant boy with looking like the girl he had wanted to be. 

The brush quit pulling his hair as the last of the knots was taken care of, the feeling of the brush going through his hair finally started to feel relaxing. He closed his eyes as he let Weiss finish with her work, almost certain he was going to look strange once she was done. 

“And done,” Weiss said as she finished pulling Cinder’s hair back into a messy ponytail. “I dont think anyone would recognize you if they saw you now.” 

Cinder opened his eyes and paused for a moment at his reflection. His hair looked longer now that it no longer resembled a rat’s nest, his already thin body looked much more feminine in the skirt and blouse he borrowed from Weiss, and even though he knew he wasnt wearing any makeup, even his face looked more like a girl’s than a boy’s now. 

Weiss gently tilted Cinder’s head a bit to look at his face. “Maybe a little makeup will do you some good. Eyeliner would make your eyes pop and if we do some red eye shadow-” 

“T-this is fine!” Cinder interrupted as he pulled away from Weiss. “Makeup wouldnt look right on me and once I’m done here, I should be getting back to work. So I wouldnt be able to keep the makeup on.” 

“I was hoping I might have another hour with you before you had to leave,” Weiss said as she started to put her clothes and brush away. “You look pretty in that skirt, it’d be a shame to see you have to take it off already.”

“Its probably not going to be the last time I wear one,” Cinder admitted quietly. 

Weiss looked over at her. “What do you mean?” 

“I’ve… given it some thought and I… I want to… I want to be a girl. Asking you to dress me up like this was supposed to be for me to see that I’d look ridiculous, but after seeing my reflection once I was dressed up-” 

“You cant imagine another way you’d be?” 

Cinder nodded. 

“Alright, then I’ll talk to Mother about getting you an appointment with the same doctor I see.” 

“You’d do that?” 

“I would,” Weiss said with a smile. “I know things have been rough for you, so anything that can help you be more… you… then I dont see a problem with it.” 

Cinder smiled and pulled Weiss into a hug. “Thank you.”

months later

Cinder took a few deep breaths as she tried to look away from the syringe in Weiss’s hands, holding her skirt up to give Weiss better access to administer her shot. “Do you have to take your time with this every time?” 

“If I’m going to give this to you, then I’m going to do it right,” Weiss said as she felt around Cinder’s leg until she found the right spot. “Unless you’d rather do this on your own.” 

“No.” 

“Then quit complaining.” 

Cinder braced herself as she waited for the needle to go in. Once again, it was done and over with a quick, nearly painless jab. 

“There, done,” Weiss said as she wrapped up the syringe before tossing it. “Never as painful as you think, right?” 

“Doesnt mean I like it,” Cinder said quietly as she pulled her skirt down. She leaned in against Weiss with a heavy sigh. “Its just a necessary evil right now.” 

“You still could’ve done patches or the pill.” 

“Injections are the most effective way to do this.” 

“Transitioning isnt a race you know.” 

“No, but… we’ll be going to Beacon soon and I want to make sure I feel more like me.” Cinder let out a sigh. “I know I still look boyish-” 

“And that’s part of your charm.” Weiss smiled at Cinder and pulled her over to her. “Besides, you know I’ll have your back no matter what, right? You’re my girlfriend and nothing will change that.” 

“I know,” Cinder said, a smile of her own crossed her lips. She placed a gentle hand on Weiss’s cheek as she leaned in for a kiss, lips hovering over Weiss’s. “Can you blame me for being nervous?” 

“No, I cant.” 

Cinder gently pulled Weiss into a kiss, closing her eyes until after their lips parted. “I love you.” 

Cinder paused in her step as she watched a woman who looked similar to her walk down the street in front of her. It had been years since she had thought about her parents, who they were or what they did, and for years she had always imagined she’d be angry at them for dumping her off at that blasted orphanage. And yet, as she watched this woman, she wasnt sure why that anger seemed to disappear and instead curiosity took its place. 

“We have a job to do, dont we?” Neo signed as he tried to get Cinder’s attention. 

“Give me a minute,” Cinder said as she pulled away from Neo, her eyes stayed on the woman as she watched her walk away. She didnt know when she had started to walk after or when her pace started to pick up as she moved her way past a few people who walked the street. Her heart raced the longer she followed, uncertain what to say as she tried to think about what to tell her. “I hate you,” and “Why did you leave me?” ran through her mind as she tried to think of other things to say, words caught in her throat the moment she saw that she was spotted. Cinder froze in her tracks once more, eye locked on the woman’s as she took a step back. 

The woman stepped forward with a smile. “Ed, is that you?” 

“E-Ed?” Cinder repeated slowly, her voice cracked as she tried to find the other words to say. “I-I think you have the wrong person.” 

“I’d never forget those amber eyes, Edwin. They look just like your father’s.” 

Cinder took another step back as she listened to the woman, her voice sounded just like hers yet calm. Looking at her face was almost like looking in a mirror from before she had the maiden powers, blue eyes instead of amber. And yet, it was all real. From the way the woman rushed over, footsteps clicking against the stone road, all the way to the way the woman pulled her into a warm hug. 

The woman squeezed Cinder in the hug, holding her tight. “I thought I’d never see you again after I had to give you up.” 

“You… you had to?” Cinder asked quietly as she watched her mother cry against her, her fingers shook as she wrapped her arms around her mother. “Why… why did you… why did you leave me there?” 

“I didnt want to, but… but I couldnt afford to keep you around either.” Her mother pulled back and gave Cinder a warm smile as she wiped away a few tears. “I couldnt give you the life that you deserved, so I left you at the orphanage so someone else could give you that opportunity. I only wanted the best for you.” 

Cinder slowly frowned as she pulled away from her mother as she held back her maiden powers from manifesting. “The life I deserved?! You left me with a matron that would beat me if I so much as tried to defend myself! And then when I was finally adopted, I was treated like a slave, a collar put around my neck to shock me every time I did something she didnt approve of!” She pulled down the collar of her shirt to show the scarring from the shock collar. She panted in anger as a few tears rolled down her cheeks, her frown softening a bit as she watched her mother slowly reach out for the scars and quietly spoke. 

“I’m sorry.” 

Cinder went quiet and her body relaxed as she hid her scars again, caught off guard by those two little words. “I’m sorry” ran through her mind over and over as she felt a few more tears run down her cheeks, her legs shook as she stared at her mother. And yet, no matter how angry she had wanted to be, that anger faded away. Her words stayed caught in the back of her throat for what almost felt like an eternity. “C-Cinder.” 

Her mother looked at her curiously. “What was that?” 

“Cinder. I go by Cinder now.” 

“Cinder. Its a pretty name.” 

“Thanks…” Cinder wiped away her tears and sighed. “I should get going-” 

“Why not come home with me for dinner? I’m sure your father would want to get to know his daughter just as much as I do.” 

Cinder stopped mid step as she turned to look at her mother, almost surprised that she’d ask her to join her for a meal. Though, what surprised her the most was the answer that left her lips without even a second thought. “I’d love to.” 

Her mother smiled and reached for her hand. “We have a small apartment here in Atlas until we can get everything moved over from Mistral. Its a bit small, but we can fit you for dinner as long as you’re not too busy.” 

Cinder pulled back for a moment as she looked at her mother’s hand, then looked behind her towards Neo as she hesitated, almost hoping that her partner would be able to save her. Then, as she watched Neo disappear for a moment, she took her mother’s hand and nodded. “I’m sure it’ll be fine. It’ll only be for an hour or two, right?” 

Winter’s breath hitched as she felt a claw from Cinder’s grimm hand trace around her neck, almost careful to not draw any blood. She sat quietly as she watched the fall maiden smile at her and pull her hand away. Just a few short hours ago, Cinder was trying to kill her. Now, she sat chained against a wall, unable to focus enough to use her semblance to summon anything to help her. 

“You know you want this just as much as I do,” Cinder said as she turned away from Winter, her voice calm as she made her way to a table. “If you didnt, you would fight back more. Where are those grimm you like to summon? The glyphs you use to give yourself an advantage? You’re rested enough to use them, so why dont you?” 

Winter grunted as she tried to free herself from the chains, only able to rattle them. Small glyphs started to form around her as she tried to summon her grimm, each glyph shattering before anything could form. “When I get out of here-” 

“If you get out of here.” Cinder grabbed a collar from the table and grinned at Winter. “You still cant get out of those chains, can you? Why fight this when you know this is exactly what you want?” 

“I want to be free!” Winter grunted as she pulled at the chains once more, wincing as she felt the cuffs on her wrists start to cut into her. She relaxed her arms, listening to the chains rattle once more as she put her arms to her sides. “What do you even want with me?” 

Cinder gently put the collar around Winter’s neck, locking it. “Cant I just want you? You want me, dont you?” 

Winter looked away, unable to answer Cinder without saying yes. She wanted Cinder dead, she wanted Cinder to pay for what she had done to Penny and to Atlas, for breaking her family apart. But she knew that was what Cinder wanted her to say. To say yes and give into whatever it was she wanted. “You have me, you can take the winter maiden powers, why do you need me anymore?” 

“Because I want you.” Cinder smiled as she used her hand to make Winter look at her once more. “And now, you’re mine.” 

Winter wanted to argue, but was quickly stopped as she felt Cinder press into a kiss with her. Her body trembled as it gave into it, pressing into her captor for a touch she never knew she craved. As Cinder broke the kiss, she felt herself wanting more, a blush crossing her cheeks as she tried to convince herself that she hated this. Her words still wouldnt leave her lips as she felt Cinder cut her clothes away, feeling the cool air on her skin. 

“If you dont want this, all you have to do is tell me to stop. Yell at me, use a glyph to stop me, threaten me.” 

Winter swore she could feel the collar start to tighten around her neck, keeping her from speaking as she tried to protest. But no matter how much she tried, she couldnt. She wasnt being forced into any of this, but she couldnt say no. She wanted to pull away as Cinder groped her, but only moans would escape her lips. Even the smokey taste of Cinder’s lips was intoxicating to her, and once she was able to speak, only a single word escaped her lips. “M-more.” 

“More?” 

Winter slowly nodded, holding back a moan from Cinder’s touch as she felt the woman strip away the last of her clothes, leaving her naked and wanting. Her legs rubbed against each other in anticipation of feeling Cinder again, her breath trembling as she felt her kiss her neck. “I… I need you.” 

Cinder grinned and nipped at Winter’s neck. “Then you’ll be my pet with no turning back.” 

Winter felt a shiver of pleasure run down her spine as she felt Cinder’s breath against her skin, her body continuing to betray her as she felt Cinder press into her. No longer was she thinking about trying to get away, all she wanted was the pleasure that she could get. A moan escaped her lips as Cinder pinched a nipple, biting her lip to try to stifle it. 

“You know you dont need to fight this anymore,” Cinder said as she removed her own shorts, grinning as she freed her cock and pressed it against Winter’s stomach. “You’re my pet and I’ll take care of you.” 

Winter felt her legs open, lust starting to build up inside of her as she panted as she stared down at Cinder’s cock. She licked her lips, almost begging to have a taste of it. For a brief moment, clarity came to her mind and all she wanted to do was yell at Cinder to go away. She created a glyph once more at her fingertips, gripping the talons of the nevermore she started to summon… feeling it all slip away the second Cinder’s cock entered into her. 

Cinder grinned as she thrust into Winter, pressing against her. “There’s no need for any of that now, pet.” 

Winter nodded as the glyph shattered just in reach of her, all will to fight leaving her as she started to fall into a fit of moans, back arching as she felt Cinder thrust into her over and over. Pangs of pleasure ran through her body as she started to move her hips in rhythm with Cinder, her fingers reaching for the source of her pleasure, straining against the chains that held her. Just as she felt herself start to get desperate to climax, she felt Cinder pull away and a small whine left her lips. 

Cinder smiled as she stood up, bringing her cock to eye level with Winter, gently tapping the tip against her lips. “I know you want a taste.” 

Winter slowly kissed the tip, succumbing to the feelings of lust that ran through her. Her body ached to feel Cinder inside of her again, her lips gently wrapping around the cock in front of her as she began to bob along it, taking inch after inch as she felt it twitch against her tongue. 

Cinder slowly started to undo the cuffs around Winter’s wrists, smiling as she put a hand on the back of Winter’s head. “This is what you truly wanted, why I could never leave your mind. Always at the back of your thoughts, and now, now you’re mine.” 

Cinder slowly made her way through the halls of Schnee Manor, regretting stepping foot back in Atlas already as she watched a few of her former classmates mingle around. Once again, she found herself feeling out of place and keeping to herself as she avoided everyone, slinking away into one of the side rooms. She paused as she found the familiar sight of an old rival, leaning against the doorway. “Neo, what are you doing here?” 

Neo gave a playful smile as she took a sip from her wine, her eyes locked on Cinder’s as she motioned for her to join her. 

Cinder closed the door and made her way to the couch, picking up the bottle of wine from the side table and taking a swig from it. “Didnt expect to see you here. Figured I saw the last of you after we graduated and you went back to Vale, continued the cushy life of a councilman’s daughter.” 

“Vale was too boring,” Neo typed out in response, her fingers pausing between words as cleared out her sentences and retyped them. “And my parents were… not great. Ran away from home at sixteen, never looked back.” 

“Sounds like we have that in common,” Cinder said as she placed a hand to her neck, tracing the faint scarring. “What brought you back here? You never seemed to like anyone here anyway, so I cant imagine that you came to catch up with anyone.” 

Neo shrugged then looked around the room. “The Schnees wont miss anything that goes missing.” 

A small giggle escaped Cinder’s lips. “I guess that’s one way to make a living.” 

“What about you? Why did you come here?” 

Cinder’s giggle faded as she re-read the words on Neo’s scroll, the same question rolling through her mind. Why did she accept the invite to this party? It wasnt like anyone here was a friend. Weiss was… tolerable, different from the other Atlesian that showed up to the party, but still not what she would consider a friend. The only reason she could think of it was the ties she had to the Madam and the hotel she ran, but even then, she hadnt been part of that for years. “I… I dont know. Maybe… maybe I thought things would be different.” 

Neo looked up at her, confused. “Different?” 

“Look, it was a mistake to be here.” Cinder stood up, keeping the wine bottle in hand as she made her way to the door, only stopping when she felt Neo’s hand grab her wrist. She slowly looked over at the girl, frozen in her steps. “And… you dont want me to.” 

Neo shook her head and pulled Cinder back to the couch, finger spelling with her free hand for a moment. “I want you here.” 

“Why?” 

“This party hasnt exactly been… fun. And I was hoping that maybe we could-” Neo paused with her signs, blushing a bit as she looked away from Cinder. “-catch up more.” 

Cinder cautiously sat back down. “Why? We hated each other at school. You tormented me until we graduated.” 

Neo sighed and stared at her scroll for a moment as she began to type, slowly trying to type out the words she wanted to say as she cleared out the words and retyped her thoughts, fingers trembling. “You… were different from the others and I didnt know how to treat you.” 

“So you decided to make school hell for me?”

“Not… on purpose.” 

“Then why?” Cinder asked angrily. “You tormented me for years-”

“Because I didnt know any better!” Neo interrupted, signing quickly. She lowered her hands and let out a quiet sigh as she began to type again. “You were the only person who wasnt an imitation and I didnt know how to handle that. Growing up, you learn people like the Schnees, the kids of councilmen and those who grew up with money are nothing but imitations, fakes who will do anything to get what they want. But you… you werent like that and I didnt know how to handle that. You have no idea what its like to love someone that you dont understand.” 

Cinder went quiet, mulling over what she read from Neo. After minutes of silence, she punched Neo’s shoulder. “You could’ve just told me.” 

“I wanted to, but I didnt know how.” 

Cinder nodded, feeling her cock start to strain against her pants as she looked over Neo. “Then… why dont you show me?” 

Neo looked at her, confused. 

Cinder smirked as she heard the music outside the room start to grow louder, the pictures on the wall starting to move. “I dont think anyone’s going to notice.” 

Neo nodded and gently placed a hand at Cinder’s crotch, giving it a small squeeze before unzipping her pants and freeing the erect cock. She licked her lips as she stared at it, gently stroking it and thumbing the tip. 

Cinder moaned and leaned, her cock starting to twitch as she felt Neo’s lips wrap around it. A small gasp escaped her lips as she felt Neo go down on her cock, not expecting how eager the girl was. Her hips started to thrust gently as Neo bobbed up and down, her cock twitching more as it went deeper and deeper down Neo’s throat. 

Neo pulled back and smirked a bit, getting up onto Cinder’s lap and gently rubbing against her. “Bigger than I expected.” 

Cinder grinned and lifted Neo’s skirt, blushing a bit when she noticed a lack of panties and slipped her cock inside of Neo. Her hips thrust as she pinned Neo to her back, pressing into her for a kiss. Her blush deepened as she felt Neo kiss back and felt her hands on her back, moans escaping her lips as she pulled back to breathe, feeling Neo’s nails dig into her back with each thrust. As she broke the kiss and pulled away, she could feel Neo’s breath on her neck, the way her body seemed to twitch in pleasure with each deep thrust. 

“I… can be your maiden.” The words slipped out of Cinder’s mouth before knew what she had said, not aware of what would be brought. The young girl held her arm nervously as she took a step back to the wall as all eyes ended up on her. She tried to steady herself as best as she could, her body shaking as she started to string the rest of her thoughts together. “I uh… I know I havent been here long, but… I do owe you for taking me in and helping me-” 

“And you decided to eavesdrop on the conversation,” Salem said as she stood up. 

Cinder’s heart started to pound in her chest as glyphs opened up under her and hands dragged her to the floor, life flashing before her eyes. After moments of silence, she finally spoke again. “You’ve been helping me be the girl I know I’m supposed to be, I-I can be of use.” 

Watts rolled his eyes. “Would be the first time she’d be of use. And it would keep us from having to hunt down another candidate.” 

Salem looked Cinder over, eyes narrowed as she lowered her hand and let the glyphs disappear. “You want to be useful to me, is that it?” 

“I… want to be free. And… if that means… doing what you want, then I’ll do it.” Cinder took a few shaky breaths as she slowly stood up, fists balled in anger, her body shook like a leaf. “A-and being your maiden will give me the power to be free, right? If so, then I’ll do it.” 

A grin crossed Salem’s lips as she heard those words, her own body started to relax as she sat down. It may have only been a couple short years since she came across Cinder, desperate to become the young woman she had grown into, now wanting to become nothing more than a tool to Salem for her own ends, a willing tool to her victory… that wasnt something she could pass up. “Arthur, please make sure young Cinder is ready for a few… enhancements.” 

“You cant be serious-” 

“Are you really going to question the Goddess?” Tyrian asked as he moved his tail closer to Watts. A smile crossed his lips for a moment, then quickly fell as he quickly moved to Cinder, dramatically going to his knees next to her. “And who are we to take Cinder’s choice away from her? After all, isnt that why she follows our Goddess as well? To take down the city that tragically broke her and tossed her away like the rest of us?” 

Watts let out a heavy sigh and slowly stood up. “Very well, I’ll make sure she’s ready for whatever she needs.” 

Salem nodded and smiled as she faced Cinder once more. “Once you’re ready, I’ll make sure you have everything you need in order to obtain the Fall Maiden powers once Hazel comes back with his report. Are you sure this is what you want? Once we start, there is no turning back.”
