Chapter 68 - A Journey Of Two I

"Fayette? Vera?" Valentine and Sasha arrived from the shopping spree after getting the equipment and a few potions that according to Sasha, would heal their missing limbs faster and help in combat if they ever needed it.

They likely would.

"They're gone it seems." Sasha's gaze moved around, she already knew they're not here but she still gave the worried Valentine a sidelong glance from the back as he placed the things on the table.

"Where...?" They didn't accord that they would do anywhere, but if he knows Fayette, the woman won't ask for permission to do anything, she's proactive, sometimes he forgets the blonde is not just his woman but his companion too and Vera has also shown herself to be independent enough.

At this stage, they can positively say that the Russian girl will be good without them, but she still chooses to stick around for obvious reasons.

"Dunno, investigate? They're not little girls... you don't need to worry about them, especially Vera, in her case, I would be more worried about the demons~" She approached him slowly, trying to make light of the situation as he just sighed and accepted the reality of the situation, that indeed, they're free to make their own calls and he trusts they will come back safe.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'll sort our equipment and think of what to do from now on, where to go next..." He answered sternly, still thinking about leaving this pub and possibly the city as well, whatever is outside in that blood maiden forest that the green-skinned demon mentioned, can't possibly be worse than the cursed alleyways.

He literally feared to be wrong with that assessment.

"Are you really leaving?" She asked with a tonality that suggested grief as if she's sad that he's truly thinking of leaving.

"Correct"

He answered and continued to check up the clothes, the bow and arrows that they bought, as for the potions, guess they'd test them when the moment of the truth is nigh or when any of them is missing a limb or two, they're apparently called Baal's drops and are extremely rare through the underworld as they require a special ingredient that comes from the Demon Earl Baal's Castle.

Demon Earl Baal... such a big name is not someone he has the leisure to care for right now.

As he thought about those things a hand held his own tightly, with such a strong grip in fact that his internal alerts triggered at once!

"Can you bear to leave me?~"

*THUD!!*

The next thing he knew was that he was being forcefully pinned to the wall!

'This woman, how is she this strong!?' He furrowed his brows the moment he realised that he couldn't move his hands at all! rather than hands, they resemble iron shackles!

"Y-You! were you hiding your strength all along!?"

"I was!~" The demoness' eyes turned bloody as she approached, flushing her voluptuous body completely against him and going for the lips, 'I can't stop now... they're not here.' 

But the demoness wouldn't find her endeavour a simple one.

*RUMBLE!!*

!!!

Because slowly but surely, Valentine started to move his hands away, the man grits his teeth to the point his mouth bled and a tyrannical white fire flashed within his pupils in retaliation!

'Impossible...' She gaped inwardly, with this amount of strength he's employing, how is it possible that he can still move!?

Valentine took advantage of her surprise and moved his head back slightly, then...

*BAAANGGG!!*

!!!

The demoness saw stars briefly, but so did he... hell, his skull might be cracked...

Sasha received the headbutt of her life, that headbutt sounded like the clash between two trucks rather than two skulls!

"Ugh! naughty boy!~" Sasha's eyes shone with further blood as she sent a fist forward!

*BOOOM!!!*

Valentine evaded it, it hit the blocks behind him that composed the wall and created a big dent in it, something like that could have easily gone through his body!

"Why are you so stubborn!? ugh!-"

Having evaded the fist, he went with an elbow straight to the chest and connected.

But Sasha who had only grunted slightly at the impact, just took advantage of this to hold his arm and deliver a knee-kick straight to his stomach!

*COUGH!*

He spat a mouthful of saliva and she threw him to the bed before jumping right on top of him!

*BAANGG!!*

"H-Have you calmed down? I won~" The demoness pinned both arms and placed her entire weight on top of him, she made sure to contain that kick just now, otherwise, who knows what might have happened.

'To think just as a mere human he's already this strong... no wonder.' 

*SPAT!*

Valentine spat directly on her face with outrage and anger, something that only further fueled when the demoness licked his spit with her slippery tongue and smiled.

"You're a demon soldier...!" It has to be, her strength is simply too ridiculous, only against Bellcroft had he experienced this degree of strength.

"Perhaps? I might have stepped in that stage without noticing~"

"You're a liar! as expected.. demons can't be- hmn!" His words were directly interrupted when she bent down and in their current position, sealed his loud mouth once and for all!

"Hmn!~" He bit on her tongue but rather than pull away, she instead bit on his!

'This woman!!' 

Leaving a mess of saliva, she finally released after ten long seconds, the two had heaving chests at this stage, but he himself didn't know if he should feel angered, confused or aroused... that was one of the best kisses he has had... but this is not the best of circumstances.

'Finally...' A glint flashed through her red slitted eyes that turned warmer, but that visage got removed and replaced for a wicked grim the next moment.

"I won, so I get to do with you what I want, right?" Her shameless knows no bounds, while they conversed she moved her tongue along his cheek, tasting and playing around, she still didn't lose the grip she had on his entire body, this is not much different than the grip of a python.

"Dream on" He still uttered, challenge is all he can do at this stage, this damned vixen has him cornered, a part of him is even willing to believe that she's past the Demon Soldier... but that wouldn't make sense, why would someone like her be doing this, lust? is she lusting that much? but then why isn't she sucking his vitality as Lucretia did.

Nothing this demoness is doing makes sense.

"You liked it too... I can feel it down there. you're just being morally righteous, but I can tell you're loving this as much as I do... why be dishonest? it's just the two of us now, no one is watching I can assure you that." The purple-skinned beauty teased back, aware that he's not being honest.

"Dream... on..." He still uttered with Fayette in his mind... and Vera too.

"You're delicious... I haven't tasted your soul, you should have noticed it, Valentine... that's not what I'm after." Seeing his insistence, she sighed and raised up, still not letting him go, but reigning her impulses a little, to draw disgust out of him is the least she desires.

"Then what the fuck are you after? we barely know each other! I have known shameless women but you're really testing my limits" He growled, and by limits, he means... how much he can allow the temptation to drift by his mind without being hindered.

"I want to break your limits~ what are you going to do now? tell them that we kissed, that you touched my butt and we almost did it?~"

"... I haven't touched your butt." He uttered with raised eyebrows only to find the wicked demoness lay down against him and place his hands on her plump butt above her pants, it felt... springy and toned.

'Dammit' He resisted the urge to pinch it.

"Now you have, feel it up, how is it?~" That last wicked sentence whispered against his ear was all that was needed for his hand to move on their own, or not... and pinch that big butt...

"You see? I'm not going to corrupt you, steal your soul or decimate your existence, Valentine... I just want us to be a little closer, is that too hard to understand? must you be so adamant in rejecting me?"

"You're aware of my entanglement with Fayette and Vera, I'd ask why you're so insistent with this despite this being the case but... you're a demoness, not a saint." He sighed and stopped his wicked hands that kept on pinching and fondling even as he spoke.

"You can tell them if you want, but we're going to be stabbed to death, do you dare take that risk?~"

"... Is this some kind of hellish blackmail?"

"It is~ one in which no one has to know, you're going your way and I'm going mine, perhaps we won't coincide ever again, who knows? why not enjoy each other while we still can?" Her hands loosened up progressively ready to restrain him were he to go funny, but she gave him a vote of confidence when she realised his hands were still on her butt.

"I thought you said you were lesbian." He frowned, there is nothing in front of him that screams lesbian... in fact, this is a straightforward demoness that goes for what she wants when she wants.

"I changed my mind~"

"..." 

'As if one can change their mind like that, liar.' 

He knows he's packing but to turn a lesbian demoness into a straight demoness, this is another degree of vanity achievement, this wench is obviously lying.

"I know you want to stay loyal to them... but you can do so after we part ways, now... kiss me, no one has to know, just you and me." The chucklesome tonality gave way to sternness as she fully removed her hands from his and started to remove her top, leaving her big lumps floating and effectively nailing the last nail to the coffin, she knows... his heated gaze tells stories. 

"Nothing personal" He uttered, at last, moving his hand to her lusty purple breasts, the first of their kind he has touched or witnessed and forsaking the last wisp of restraint he had.

'It won't be long...' that's what he said while cursing himself in his mind.

"Nothing personal~" She uttered those words before their mouths clashed in an unimpeded frenzy, one in which one of his hands reshaped her breasts and the other sneaked inside her pants.

Sasha was in heaven and Valentine was in hell, literally... her hands encircled his shoulder while the demoness devoured his lips.

After a full minute of slippery noises and lust, he bit on hers to signal a time-out, one she was quite reluctant to give.

"We're not going all the way." He declared and planned to withhold this, it's ridiculous, but this is the last line of defence.

"Hehe~ if that makes you feel better, master~ as much as I want to, we can't go all the way, bear that in mind... I have my own reasons." The demoness declared too and mawed on his chin, he didn't bother to ask what her reason is, they're nothing... just two individuals that lust after one another.

"Are you going to keep calling me that?" He bit on one of her light-coloured nipples, it was a lighter shade of purple, it looked so tantalizing and delicious.

"HMN!~ Y-Yes, I hope you like it~" Having completed their treaty she didn't shy away from proactively taking away his shirt and pulling him down on the bed, whether Vera and Fayette would come shortly or not, they didn't seem to care.

But Valentine heard the lock of the door and that gave some reassurance to his accursed heart.

Passion took over their bodies and the moans started, seeking a second of respite a single moment of lust that does nothing but further corrupt the heart.

The Sin of Adultery.
