in control.

                A wisp of smoke, flavored naturally with plums, escaped her lips as she raises a brow at her husband.  ❝ Now, now, now. Don’t turn me into my mother and make me pick a side, beloved? ❞ Lilith asked with a small sing-song vice.  She would turn the lacquer pipe over to dump the ashy remnants into the matching box.  ❝ What is going on?. ❞

                    the queen watches the two bicker like siblings as she blinked once and twice before noticing Tadashi was pointing to his prosthetic arm. that makes much more sense now she thought. but the boy did mention something about it in their last meeting. the bright eyes succubus must have forgotten. no matter, she chuckles sligtly as she kept out of their argument.            “ why did you give him such a thing? “ she inquired before blinking as she watched him tighten his hold upon the other. “you want me to find you a meal or are you requesting that you dinner upon me?” she inquired, her hands clasping together in her lap as her head cants. “you should take better care of eztli, tadashi. if you don’t who knows what could happened,” she warned, “not everyone is as docile as me.”            “what do I get in return for agreeing to your offer?”

           the queen laughs a little at tadashi’s embarrassment to eztli’s suggestions.and his response afterwards. “there’s nothing wrong with such, i mean that’s how people get close to others,” she teased. her fingers wagging at the boy before closing her eyes as she finds a bench to sit on now, crossing one leg over the other.          “good, good. i am glad. he is and he does have a nice body or i should say you two have nice shared body,” a small wink given but the succubus queen didn’t mean too much behind it. her eyes fixated upon the clone before canting her head to the side, “eztli, it is a pleasure.” thought her eyes widen for a moment before she waves her hand in a circle, “ ask away, darling, i have all the time in the world. “

                 lilith pondered about that thought with her nail lightly tapping against her bottom lip for a moment. “i am sure my son and daughter would ask the same thing of me,” she voiced but painted lips curled upward into a wicked smile. “but i have a brothel to run here so poor or rich, it does not matter to me.” a potato? her head cants to the side, unfamiliar with that expression. “are you calling yourself lowly? oh, darling, never do that. i find you and your demon friend interesting. you are a rarity amongst us.”           “ i mean my husband, asmodeus, hangs out with the common folk from time to time.”             oh! there was a voice and immediately Lilith’s eyes glowed for a moment as she watched the vessel appear before them. watching their interaction with curiosity. “ is this the demon within? ah and he’s correct. she give me such a grand deal that i could not refuse. “ her eyes closed for a moment before opening as she looks at eztli, “ and it’s a pleasure to finally meet you, darling. what is your name? your vessel has been very kind to me. “

                “ generally they don’t but i am a special type. a queen amongst lessers...” she commented. thought it was almost time for a culling again. “ my contracts are somewhat different. for what they lack in lust, i give them in return for pieces and bits. and one of the teachers on this campus is reaching the end. “

                    what made this young man so paranoid? granted, she wanted to ask but he may not be so trusting. ah, she could use lydia, yes? after all, she was interested in school on the surface.  “ it’s quite alright, darling. i do, you are a vessel for another. don’t worry. i won’t linger too long, i have a contract that about to reach its end here.” mortals and their silly need to prolong their lives.

            ha, ha. this time it was unintentional. “ i am here on business. i happened to be within the area.” thought she says nothing more on the details because they were not important. “ now, now, relax. if i wanted to do something to you. i would have done so already, yes? plus you know what i am or have a good idea. “

            ‘ you should drink more water then, Todd. ‘

                     Nadir was mildly disappointed that he was Antares’s son since the boogeyman had a reputation. But the leopardess knew about his son after all, “He never got a chance to raise that boy,” she stated. Not making excuses for Aiden but the demoness knew well if he had been raised by his actual father than things would have turned out different. “But I shudder to think that he would be one of us if that was the case,” she said with a mild bitterness. His woman? “Your mark?” Sariah questioned before stripping down most of her clothing so she was left in only her uniform. “What mischievous thing have you done to that girl? Outside plague her mind, I can only imagine she always in a turmoil in what to do...” she hummed a little, “Unless you give her extra gift.” As for the paranoia, her lips curled upward into a wicked grin, enjoying hearing those words. “Perhaps one day, I’ll visit him.” Just to see. Aiden never met Nadir before.             She liked that Dante never tries anything. Their relationship worked out this way which is why she gets along with him the most. “She doesn’t fancy herself as it thought but I imagine you have as well.” She removes the hair ties from the female decides to lay upon her belly. “Must you males always find something to nitpick at females,” she said with some vemons. “The boy is silly but he’s making a name for himself even if he has a mouth.” Her hands toying with a blade of grass before she looks over her shoulders at Dante. “Yes.”

                Nadir doesn’t need any excuse to touch Dante. She has touched him multiple times before to either try and irritate him or worst. The chimera knew not to knock her hands away so she lets out a loud rumble to show she is pleased. Her golden eyes fixated upon him, “Because what nymph could exist the great thief, Dante,” she teased before rolling her eyes a little playfully. But she was excited by Dante tormenting the poor boy, “Yes, well that is the best route to go. Death is but a mercy kill.” She removes her coat to allow herself to cool off a little as tossed it over her shoulders with her eyes closed, “Are you done toying with his nymph then?”            She knew of the nymphs he had in collection - his harem. It was vast and had a different variety of woman. Never would she ask him to go into deeper details. “Not the best way to do something but efficient enough,” she comments. Her hand reaching up to cup the side of the chimera’s face to stroke his jawline. “Glad to see you are still here. I would be bored without you.” Her hand drops as she has to look up at him as he cups her chin and toys with her thumb. She gives him one of those looks but allows it to happen. Of course, she was always the observant little bird when it came to the Queen and her offspring, “So many nymphs look up to Lucinda as she’s made quite the name for herself. Queen of Nymphs. I highly doubt you could get close enough to even get a hump with her mate. She rarely leaves his sights now.” Her eyes fluttering to a close. Ah, his voice was teasing her as she purrs in reply once he releases her. Her nostrils flaring slightly at the scene before closing her eyes, “Next time, bring me one.”

                a soft chuckle escapes red painted lips as she smiles sweetly. she supposes she may have been a bit too open and friendly; however, the truth was she did order food. while she could have fed it to the members of Lust’s guard, she rather bask in the newer company.  ❝ yes, and while it was expensive. i order too much. my children have already gotten their fill. ❞ a hand delicately reaches out with such elegance and grace as she picked up on of the bowls before smiling.  ❝ i wanted to treat myself and order enough to sedate my hunger but i admit i became too greedy. i do hope you enjoy italian. ❞
