Erinyxes, the merciful succubus, knew she wouldn't have long to rest. Sure enough, she was contacted again.
"Serena Collins, age 48. Two grown children. Cause of death-to-be: severe liver cirrhosis from too much partying when she was younger and not enough trips to the doctor. She has about 8 hours."
"Shouldn't we send an incubus? They usually handle the females."
"Serena's last item on her bucket list is sex with a woman. She wanted to try a couple of times in college but never had the courage."
"I'm on it."

Serena stared miserably at the floor. She hadn't bothered going to a doctor for the pain. She knew she was dying and didn't need to waste the cash on a doc to tell her there was nothing they could do.
She was wearing just a nightgown. She hadn't been out of the house in four days and her kids wouldn't be coming to see her. Yes, she had been a bad mom, drinking instead of looking after their needs when they were younger, but their dad had done a good job of raising them, and by the time they were teens, Serena had been sober. Dad had even stuck with his former lush of a wife until both kids graduated high school, so they had a two parent family. And the divorce had been quite amicable. The kids were off in college, and he gave her enough money to have her own apartment. A good man. The kids definitely thought so, they still visited him every weekend. The advantage of going to college locally.
But they didn't visit her, except on holidays. And yes, the rejection hurt. Now Serena was going to die alone.

Erinyxes materialized behind Serena, so as not to scare her. The pale-skinned woman seemed lost in her own world. Erinyxes walked over in front of her.
"Hello, Serena. I'm Erin."
Serena's head snapped up. She could have sworn the door was locked. How had someone gotten inside? And how did they know her name?
Serena took a closer look at the naked figure before her. A very female body, yes, but also horns and a tail. What could a succubus possibly want with her?
She must be losing her mind. Succubi didn't exist, and besides which, they sucked the souls out of men, not women. Incubi were the danger to females.
She rubbed her eyes and blinked, trying to make the hallucination go away.

"I assure you I'm quite real."
The voice was definitely female.
"What do you want with me?"
Erin gently reached down and removed Serena's nightgown, leaving the dying middle-aged woman as naked as herself.
"To ease your last hours and let you fulfill a desire you had but never acted on."
Serena blinked again. How could Erin know about her secret fantasies from her youth?
The succubus gently scooped Serena's body out of the chair it had been sitting in. She cradled Serena against her own body like a mother cradling a young child, and carried her to the bed. The two of them lay down.
Erin gently held Serena. The blonde's head (although some of her hair had been turning grey) rested on the succubus' ample chest.
Serena breathed in Erin's scent, and desire began to fill her. She kissed at Erin's breast. A soft moan from the succubus encouraged the blonde, and she took a nipple into her mouth. Warm fluid emerged, and she swallowed it down.
Erin's hands very gently caressed Serena's somewhat thick, short body. One hand on the blonde's back, one on her leg. Serena shivered at Erin's touch.
"I've had over 1,200 years of experience," Erin smiled.
Serena merely switched her mouth to Erin's other breast. After a couple of minutes, she unfastened her mouth and the succubus slid her upwards, so that their lips were just inches apart.
Erin softly slid a fingertip along Serena's spine. She lightly touched her lips to the blonde's, holding a short, sweet kiss for just an instant.
"You're... a lot nicer than I thought," Serena murmured.
Erin's gentle caresses were sending little pulses of pleasure through Serena's body.
"You need more than just orgasms tonight," Erin replied, her voice husky.
"I have been a bit down," Serena admitted.
The succubus began gently brushing the tip of her tail over Serena's skin. Serena's muscles relaxed as Erin's scent and her touch did their work.
