Within a few days time, things seemed to have changed for the better. The dwindling fire of Mary and Alex's marriage had been fueled into a raging inferno. Bringing back memories of their time together before getting married, even their children seemed to be doing better. The same old routine was changing even more with their son Vincent actually becoming more active, spending less time at home. Not only giving Alex and Mary some much welcomed alone time, but Vincent's choices in friends had shifted. No longer did he hang out with his high school friends who followed with him to college, now he was often seen in the company of a small group of social outcasts.
One thing that had not changed was that Erica was still herself and sticking to her typical routine, all of this crossed Alex's mind as he began to sit up out of bed. His muscles aching from yet another round of rough sex with his wife, this time showing a few more scratches and bites than the last time. A smile comes across his lips as he turns to look over to the other side of the bed, expecting to see that wild creature laying there but instead not seeing anyone. He lays there a moment, the last few days and especially last night still on his mind.
His thoughts started to shift as he noticed a strange scent drifting through the bedroom, noticing that it was already mid-day before slipping out of bed. Noticing that he was still naked from last night, he quickly slips on some clothes and walks downstairs towards the kitchen. Thinking that perhaps Mary had already starting getting lunch or perhaps dinner prepared for the family. Instead what he found were several plates sitting at the table, one for each of them but there was an extra. Alex shakes his head a little, trying to figure out the extra plate and chair as he looks over to see his wife backing away from the oven.
Mary turns to see her husband standing there, offering a loving smile before motioning him out of the way. Allowing him to see her wearing one of his shirts, along with a skirt and cooking apron, but especially the steaming tray of food she was setting down on the dinner table. Walking past him as Alex steps back out of the way, stealing a brief but passionate kiss before setting the dish down at the dinner table. Taking off her oven mitts before hearing Alex asking her "whats going on, honey.. what's the big occasion?"
She smiles and turns back to the oven, stirring something she was cooking in a pan. After a few moments she eventually answers her husband "the big occasion is, we have a guest this evening" Mary explains.
"Oh? You mean our daughter is finally bringing her boyfriend for us to meet?"
Mary continues cooking and begins to explain "Mmmh... not sure if she wants to just yet, Vincent said he is going to be out with his new friends but would be back before dinner. Before you even ask, neither of our families are coming by either." Hearing all this, Alex again looks over to the extra chair and plate, at the same time noticing Mary was only preparing a few side dishes and no main course. "So then who is coming over for dinner tonight?" Alex asks.
Suddenly stopping what she is doing, the sound of something sizzling in the pan was the only noise to break up the uncomfortable silence between them. Mary slowly turns to look back towards her husband before smiling a little, and answering in a sultry voice "The Rak-Sasha"
All Alex could do was stand there and listen to his wife saying that word, the name of the strange woman living next door to them. Even the way Mary said it seemed to conjure up images of seeing that woman crawling across the bed on all fours, moving towards him. Unsure if she was about to fuck him, or devour him like a hungry predator.. or perhaps both?
From the window Alex could be seen shaking his head a little, walking away from his wife still in the kitchen. Inside the house next door someone else was moving around in the kitchen while Azetlor pads through the living room, sniffing the air and following the noise and smells into the kitchen. His golden eyes staring intently at Sasha wearing a simple black dress as she takes some large tray out of the oven, uncovering it to reveal several pieces of cooked meat. Leaning over the tray as she takes a deep breath, savoring the smell of it as she lets out a low purr. Looking over to see Azetlor eying the tray and licking his fangs, purring back to him "no baby, this is for tonight."
Grabbing a small bag from the table nearby, the bag itself said "Lilith's Erotic Emporium" on it. Yet what Sasha pulls from the bag were not sex toys or some kind of gifts for the dinner tonight. Instead she sets down several what looked like spice containers on the table next to the tray of meat. Taking each one and sprinkling some of the exotice spices onto the meat, looking rather like steak seasoning before putting the first one down. Azetlor still watches her as she adds these extra ingredients, even leaping up onto the kitchen counter nearby to watch closely.
Sensing the sudden motion so close, she looks over at him as if to warn him to stay back. Even a low growl could be heard rumbling within her as Azetlor sits down on the edge of the counter, his ears lowered at the sound of her growl. Noticing that while she was adding these seasonings, they had rather strange names written on them. One was labeled "Horn of Draikoth" another was "Scales of Sobek" then "Dried Essence of Succubus" but the final one she puts aside and doesn't add to the meat. Smiling over at Azetlor and whispering to him "Tears of the Red Witch, this one is for us to use later" Sasha explains.
