“Ah, ahhk. Ang!”

Having climaxed several times, the love juices seeping from the joined parts bubbled with a squelch. Every time the penis thrust into the sticky, clinging flesh, the overwhelming pleasure made her dizzy with tears in her eyes. The man, completely bound by tentacles, writhed helplessly in ecstasy.

“Haah, haah. Odile, would you like me to release this?”

“Huff, sh-shut up…! Just stop and get lost!”

“You always say such mean things. Nngh… even though your body is so honest…!”

When she raised her hips and slammed them down in one swift move, he bit his lip with a gasp. His pained expression made her heart race. The tentacles had wrapped around not only his limbs but also under the shaft and around his testicles, preventing ejaculation.

Soaked in the aphrodisiac oozing from the bumpy protrusions of the tentacles, his penis, having never once released, had grown so large that its shape could be felt even inside.

She gave him a brief kiss, intoxicated by the ecstasy, then bit down on his swollen red lips as if to pull them. Clenching tightly inside and moving her hips, she made him even more desperate.

Her body, designed solely for draining a man’s essence, differed in structure from ordinary people. Her inner walls changed shape to match the penis that thrust inside, and the stimulation was so intense it felt like her mind would explode.

“Odile… Aang, haeuut! Inside, inside…!”

“Kgh, huuuk!”

With every thrust of his hips, something hot poured into her belly. As her vision flashed white and she could think no longer, she tightened her inner walls and dispelled the tentacles coiling around his penis. With his eyes shut tight, he instinctively pushed his hips in and ejaculated. Holding back for so long, a tremendous amount of semen poured out, and her body eagerly received it.

“Haa, haa… Ah, so good…”

The pleasure was so overwhelming that even breathing felt difficult. Her drained body collapsed onto the man’s chest, making him tremble. Odile tried to pull out from inside her, but still bound and drenched in aphrodisiac, he lacked the strength.

“…If it’s over, then get lost.”

His voice, hoarse and harsh, made her pout as she rolled her hips slowly, twisting his tightly sealed lips.

“Ugh, enough already…!”

“We had fun together, and now you’re being too harsh. Isn’t it time you gave up?”

He’d always hated her from the beginning, even when they first slept together. She could understand since their relationship was forced, but the way he growled like a feisty kitten every time it ended made her want to tease him more.

Feeling indignant, she repeatedly tightened and loosened herself around the penis still inside. Odile exhaled roughly from the stimulation. Half rising, she panted while moving her hips slowly.

“Mmh. So if you don’t like this, then hurry up and find it. My treasure that your subordinate took. Haah…”

That was the deal. It was actually a clumsy knight from the Azure Order Order, which he commanded, who had caused the incident, but he insisted on taking responsibility for his subordinate’s mistake.

He wasn’t the type to give in so easily, but that was the reason he was so cooperative. Still, his constant grumbling made her want to pamper him more.

“We’re looking. Desperately looking, so please, just stop already.”

“Didn’t we already settle this? You said you’d take responsibility.”

“…I did say that, but if I’d known you meant this, I never would have…”

“You didn’t know what it meant to say that to a succubus? That’s really disappointing.”

“…You damn wench.”

She giggled at his pale face and sat up fully. As much as she wanted to enjoy more, she had no time left.

As the penis, which had been filling her completely, slipped out, white foam dripped onto his belly. When the tip caught briefly at the entrance before coming out, she let out a sigh from the lingering pleasure.

“I had fun today too. I hope to hear some good news next time.”

Whether they could actually find something that hadn’t turned up even after scouring the entire continent was still uncertain.

When she kissed his cheek, his pale face turned even whiter. She stepped down from the bed where they had passionately made love and released the rest of the tentacles binding his body. Watching him immediately pull the blanket to cover himself made her laugh. As if it mattered now, they’d already seen everything.

“I’ll come again.”

Smiling sweetly, she returned to the room through the mirror by the door.

Outside, the sky was gradually brightening. It was almost time to wake. Using magic, she cleaned her body of all traces of the tryst and lay on the bed. When she closed and opened her eyes—

‘Aaaaaaaah! Aah! Aaaaaaaah!’

Once again, she screamed silently into her blanket, overwhelmed by such intense shame and embarrassment that she wished the world would just end.

She truly wanted to die. What on earth had she done in a past life to deserve this kind of ordeal? All she’d wanted was to quietly absorb energy and return without unnecessary fuss, so why did it always turn out like this?

Tears welled up and soaked her flushed cheeks.

Her name was Lilith Serra. She was a maid serving in the imperial palace of the Ciel Empire and known here as Lily. And though she didn’t want to admit it, she had just now been the succubus who teased and tormented Commander Odile Cygnus of theAzure Order Order.

Almost every night, she went to visit the commanders affiliated with the imperial palace and had sex with them.

Of course, none of them knew who she was or that she served as a maid in the palace. But unable to bring herself to absorb energy while in her right mind, she awakened her succubus instincts and sought them out night after night. So why, why did they always act like that?

Crushed by self-loathing and guilt, she sobbed under the covers.

***

The spring I turned sixteen and got my first period, I noticed a strange mark appear just below my navel.

“…What is this?”

Tilting my head at the pale pink symbol that looked like two mirrored number 2s, I wondered if it was a stain. I lathered up with soap and scrubbed my lower belly, but suddenly a strange ache hit deep in my stomach.

“Uuuh…”

Startled by the sound that escaped my lips, I quickly pulled my hand away. What was that? I had a bad feeling, as if I had done something terribly wrong. My face flushed hot. Panicking, I doused myself with cold water from head to toe and rushed out of the bathroom.

As I dried my wet body and got dressed, I kept glancing down at that spot. Biting my soft lip, I went downstairs. My mother was placing a basket of bread on the table with a smile. My father must have already left for the store.

“Good morning.”

“Did you sleep well, Lily?”

“…Mom.”

I approached her carefully.

“I started my period. And… something weird appeared below my belly button.”

The moment I said it, her smiling face hardened.

That’s when I realized something was wrong.

“Let’s eat first.”

She smiled gently again as if nothing had happened, and I nodded anxiously, lips trembling.

After the meal, my mother sat me on the couch, knelt before me, and looked into my eyes.

“Lily. Do you know what a succubus is?”

“…I read about it in a book. They seduce people and… uh, they’re demons who do bad things…”

The book didn’t specify what the ‘bad things’ were. It said they seduced people to absorb their life force, but I was too young to fully understand what that meant. Even so, I somehow sensed what my mother was about to say, and my breath hitched as I wiped at my eyes.

“It’s okay. It’s not something bad, okay? Don’t cry… Lily, do you remember your late grandmother?”

I shook my head. I didn’t remember anything about my grandparents; my mother had told me they died when I was very young. My mother stroked my cheek as she said, “Your grandmother was a succubus. She married your grandfather, had me, and she loved you very much.”

“…Are you a succubus too, Mom?”

“I’m not. But I do remember. When I got my first period, your grandmother looked at my belly and sighed. I didn’t understand then, but when I got pregnant with you, she told me that if a girl is born, changes might appear after her first period, or in boys, during their first wet dream. If that happens, she asked to be told immediately.”

“But Grandma is gone…”

My mother gave a bitter smile and gently stroked my cheek and forehead. Then, with a truly tender voice that seemed to wipe away all worries, she whispered, “Lily. Just as there are good people and bad people in the world, not all demons are evil. You’re just someone a little more special than others. So don’t worry too much, and if anything happens, always tell me. All right?”

I had a good relationship with my mother. Maybe it was because I had always been shy and disliked being in front of people, so I never had any friends.
