Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Never Do That

Straightening her glistening jet black hair, Crystal looked like a mermaid straight out of a mythical novel. The howling wind, and the midday sun colluded together to dry her out. Slowly, the beads of water on her body began to gradually evaporate, leaving her milky white skin glowing like a polished silver statue.

As her eyes wandered towards her pile of clothes, her face contorted in a frown. The succubus instantly realized she had a problem.

After days of running through the jungle, her clothes were tattered and downright filthy. She practically had nothing to wear! She stared around helplessly, wondering how best to manage the situation.

"Nexus..." she called wistfully.

"Yeah?" His sturdy dependable voice answered from ahead; "Are you done?"

"Yes...uhmm no actually. This is embarassing, but I kind of maxed out my clothes. They're dirty and I don't think I can---"

Nexus caught on quick; "Say less. Don't worry I got you. Are you currently decent? Can I turn back now?"

"Well. . ."

"Never mind, I already prepared something ahead of time, but I'm gonna need you to follow my instructions alright?"

She nodded.

Immediately realizing he would not see that, she said aloud;

"Alright."

"Good. I need you to check the back of the tree trunk, the same tree where you took your bath. On the ground is a spare set of clothing similar to mine. That should suffice for now."

Crystal got up, and headed there with immediate alacrity.

If Nexus had been looking, he would have certainly have had a good laugh at the way she leapt towards the location he had described.

Like a kid at the playground, she jumped and jumped as she tried to work her way around the puddles of water which had formed in jagged pools on the earth. Each movement triggered a monumental rise and fall of her cinnabun tushy ass cheeks. Her full mammary glands jiggled freely as she leapt from one spot to another.

Eventually, the naked succubus arrived at the spot.

It was the black turtleneck. She looked at it unsuredly through suspicious eyes. Never had she seen such a garment before. She did not recognize the fabric, or the design, and neither did she understand why it had to have so many pockets.

And why was it jet black? Was he averse to colors or what?

With no other option, but this, she delved both hands in it and pulled it over her head. As she struggled to drag it down her bust, it became clear that this cloth was not for her at all.

Trying to fit the combat pants into her fleshy thighs was the second battle.

Even though the material was created to expand according to size, Crystal's blown out hips had a hard time with it. Pulling and pulling with dedicated resolve, she managed to drag the pants up until the fabric clung to her pronounced curvy ass like a second skin. By the time she was done, she was panting heavily like she had just done some arduous task.

Finally, she finally stood up, and straightened herself after getting into his boots.

"I'm all good now. You can turn around Nexus. . ."

Nexus spun around and looked at her. Never had he been so aware of her figure. The outfit hugged her frame tightly, accentuating her chillingly perfect hourglass figure.

"I think it should do for now. . ." That was all he could say. It was either that, or; 'Damn, you look like a smokin' hot, beefy dominatrix.'

"We need to be far from this place before night fall comes," he pointed to the puddles on the forest's floor; "The water will be sure to attract all kinds of beasts."

Crystal nodded; "That's true. We really should be going then. I think there should be a traveler's path up east of here."

As she walked towards him, he noticed her knees buckling slightly. She also seemed to sway a little with each stride.

"Crystal, you sure you're good?"

She looked at him with a blank stare; "What do you mean?"

"I noticed you're still a little bit out of it. Maybe we can wait til---" His own voice trailed off as a concerned look replaced his inquiring expression.

"Damn, I should have known, you're famished aren't you?"

The succubus' face flushed in embarassment.

"Of course, with all the drama with the hunters, you probably haven't had any tangible thing to eat in days. Please, excuse m my insensitivity, I should have known."

Crystal blushed even harder; "It's okay Nexus, I'm fine, I can manage really."

But he would not have it; "No it's my fault. Hold on..."

Crystal tensed when his left hand went to a compartment on the lower right part of his trousers. After fumbling for a while, he finally ripped out a package wrapped in silver foil. It was about six inches long. and as thick as two big toes.

Intrigued, she watched strips of silver foil drop to the ground as he unwrapped the mysterious package.

She could not hold back her curiosity any longer;

"Nexus, what is that?"

He answered; "It's air-dried beef jerky..." He explained further when he saw that same confused look on her face; "It's just processed beef that has been preserved. Though it's nowhere as delicious as beef cuisine. Still it's tasty enough."

Her lips parted slightly as she said; "Oh..."

"Here." he stretched out his arm; "Try it..."

Nexus caught a guilty look that streaked briefly across her eyes, or was it embrassment?

"Thank you," She looked away; "But I'm good."

"Come on Crystal. Don't you think we're way past that now? You need to replenish your strength," He shook the strip of jerky in his hand; "Trust me, given where we are, there won't be any option better than this."

The succubus lowered her head, and Nexus knew it was shame;

"Crystal, I didn't mean to-"

"It's fine Nexus. It's fine. Now I really know you're not from around here, it's not your fault for not knowing."

"What do you mean? What don't I know??"

She looked up at him with a heart warming earnestness, and there is was again, that same guilty look. Now Nexus really interested. What was it? What could have spurred this side of her?

"You already know I'm a succubus. You understand my nature right?" She asked weakly, as though she were afraid the truth would shatter his perception of her.

"Of course I do. What does that have to do with this? Are you allergic to meat or something?"

"Oh I love meat alright...just not that kind of meat though..." Her lashes fluttered as she lifted her gaze to meet his; "Nexus, I can't eat food...no succubus can...well, I guess we technically can...but our bodies just can't digest it..."

Her voice dropped to a low octave, even lower than before;

"There's only one thing that can sustain me Nexus...and it's the milk that proceeds from your stimulated manhood..."

Nexus felt like he had been struck by lightning.

Unfazed, she continued her verbal reign of terror;

"...when you ejaculate in a succubus...whether in her mouth...her genitals...or her butt hole...your semen becomes her food...she absorbs it...and that part of you becomes a part of her..."

Every ounce of blood in Nexus' body rushed to his face like an army of tiny little soldiers, clanging and trumpeting loudly on their way to redden his face. And he was flushed hard!

Crystal's words broke over his head like a storm cloud. They cracked loudly in his ears like thunder, leaving him drenched in the rain that was her astonishing revelation.

The diabolic eye contact, the cat-like ravenous look, the angling of her perfect neck, the intentional intermittent pauses in between, and yes, the intoxicating sound of her bedroom voice!

Was this a covert sexual innuendo to him? Of course, it had to be!

Actively aware of the rapidly swelling bulge in his pelvic region, Nexus swallowed, triggering his adam's apple to bounce in his throat.

Crystal spoke up, and saved him the insurmountable task of issuing a reply.

"But I would never do that to you Nexus, I just don't have it in me. I refuse to put you through all that. . ."

Nexus eyes must have blinked a thousand times in those precious few seconds.

He felt like he had been poured a bucket full of cold water- completely dousing his fire, leaving him with a nakedness that could not be quantified.

"W-w-whattt??" He stuttered in shock.
