Chapter 175<~> Chapter 175
"Group meeting really quick!" I called out. We hadn't stopped for the night yet but I wanted to have this discussion where Cecilia wouldn't hear it. Unfortunately that meant that Bella wouldn't be included since she's riding in the coachman's seat with Cecilia right now.
Everyone curiously turned toward my bench as I put together my thoughts. "There are a few things we need to talk about for this trip. One of them being, whether or not we trust Cecilia enough to tell her about the Succubi. Maybe even invite her to become one as well, if she's interested."
"Why? Do you think we need to tell her?" Torien asked.
"Well, we're about to head into a repressive city where we won't be as free to have sex as openly as have been," I replied.
Torien looked at me flatly. "That's your big worry?"
I felt my face heat up a bit but I continued. "We're succubi, we'll need to be as... satiated as we can in case it's not safe to recharge right away. There's also a few things I would like to test before we make it to the city and it would be hard to do if I was worried about her seeing it."
Morrigan perked up. "Test what?"
"My wings," I replied. "So far things have been clear, not much traffic on this road right now. It would make sense to find a spot obscured from the road and test out gliding and flying with my um, larger form. I can't really do that if she freaks out at me shapeshifting in front of her. I'm a bit sick of being called a demon."
"Cecilia worked closely with Tarklin, she would know that our group fought off the dungeon break, I doubt she would suspect any of us of being demons," Torien said.
"Sure." I shrugged. "Either way, it would still be better if we told her ahead of time rather than wonder what we're doing on one of our breaks and discovering me on her own."
Silva crossed her arms. "The bigger question is if we can trust her. It doesn't sound like you know her that well. Working with her a few times doesn't garner that much trust to me. How do we know she isn't working with the demon summoners?"
Morrigan shook her head. "No, if she was involved with the demon summoners she would have demonic miasma on her. Since Lilith and I gained the demon hunter title spotting them with our mana sense is easy. She would stick out like a sore thumb."
Silva nodded. "I suppose that's true if you say it is. But even if we know she's not directly our enemy, that doesn't mean she wouldn't have reservations about your new species..."
"What if we seduce her?" Raya asked suddenly. When everyone turned to her she looked flustered for a moment but kept going. "She was clearly into me the other day. Maybe if we draw her into a few threesomes and orgies she would be more receptive to joining us. Or at least not be bothered by what we are. I feel like it would work," she finished with a shrug.
Theo chuckled. "I feel odd being included in this conversation."
Sibyl grinned. "You'd rather be included in the threesomes and orgies."
The comment got a full belly laugh out of him. "You've seen through me, what gave it away?"
Sibyl leaned forward and rested her chin on her palm. "The girls talk, it sounds like you knew what you were doing. I wouldn't be against having some fun with you, given the chance."
Morrigan laughed. "Let's stay on task girls, we're talking about seducing Cecilia not Theo right now."
I tapped my fingers on the table. "It's not a bad idea, and she did seem interested in a few of us. It doesn't exactly solve the trust issue but if Raya convinced her to become a succubus as well then we shouldn't need to worry." T/his chapter is updated by nov(ê(l)biin.co/m
She gave me a half-hearted smile before sighing. "Promise you won't laugh?"
Patting her on the back, I smiled. "Come on, it can't be that bad."
Raya gave out another exaggerated sigh. "Sibyl won't let me help her cook. ...I almost burned down the kitchen a few times back at the Ruby Vixen."
I raised an eyebrow and Raya crossed her arms in response to my look. "I mean, I get it. But I'm not totally useless when it comes to that stuff. I could still chop vegetables or something..."
I thought about it for a moment before patting her on the leg. "Maybe Sibyl just wants to show off, show how good she can take care of you. Past... mistakes aside, maybe it would be better to just accept that cooking is what she's good at and—" I decided to change my words at the withering stare she was giving me, "and you're better at other things."
She sighed and slumped down. "Maybe you're right."
Wrapping her in a side hug I whispered into her ear, "Besides, it's about time to do what you're good at and seduce a certain dark-haired beauty."
Raya licked her lips. "Mmm, I can taste those abs already."
I blinked. "Okay, that was a little gross..."
She scoffed. "What? The taste of sweat? The smell of womanly musk?"
I pushed her away with a laugh. "Eww. I don't want to hear any more about womanly musk."
Raya pushed me back with a huge smile. "You just don't get it, it takes a refined palate to understand," she said with a mock haughty tone.
The two of us started laughing just as Cecilia came over to sit down on one of the old logs we had pulled over as makeshift benches. "What are you two laughing about over here?"
We looked at each other and I saw the glimmer of mischief in Raya's eyes. She got up and sat next to Cecilia, quickly getting into her personal space and wrapping her long twin tails around the dark-haired woman.
"We were just talking about you actually," she said in a seductive tone as her fingers trailed up the other woman's leg. "Lilith was making a joke at my expense because..." she leaned forward to whisper in Cecilia's ear. "I can't wait to taste you."
Cecilia flushed and squirmed in obvious arousal.
"Wh-what about Sibyl?"
Since Cecilia wasn't making any effort to stop her, Raya pressed closer and groped the woman's ass through her pants. "Who says she wouldn't join us? Would you like that? Getting caught between two predators?"
"I... I would...."
"Gooood. I'll make sure you enjoy yourself tonight."
