"You want me to dress up as a what?"
"A succubus -- it'll be great!"
"I think I can guess, but just to be sure -- what exactly does a succubus look like?"
"I'll show you."
A few mouse clicks and keyboard taps later, James eagerly showed his girlfriend what he had in mind. On the monitor screen was a picture from one of his video games that he spent so much time with lately.
Katrina frowned at the image and sighed. "So you want me to dress up as... a slut."
"It's a demon -- I can dress up as a warlock and you can be my demon minion."
"So as well as a slut, I'll also be your slave?"
"Come on, it'll be awesome."
"You want me to go out in public dressed in just my underwear -- a skimpy corset and a thong."
"You can wear your boots with the spike heels, and you can use your whip from the catwoman costume you wore last year. Plus devil horns and bat wings... and a tail. Anyway you'll have a coat to get there, and everyone at the club will be dressed up." He paused. "And you know you'll look awesome -- you can really pull it off."
"There'll be no pulling off of anything... it doesn't look like there'll be much to be pulled off in the first place."
"You know what I mean, Kat. You're gorgeous. You'll look fantastic."
Katrina sighed again. "Okay, fine. But if you want me to dress up like that, you can pay for the bits of costume that I don't have."
James grinned, his eyes gleaming with excitement. "Okay! It's going to be great!"
Halloween night arrived and Katrina was dressed up, though she had not lost her reservations. She'd already had two shots of vodka orange for courage, was halfway through her third, and they hadn't even left for the nightclub yet.
She looked over her reflection yet again in the full-length mirror. Thigh-high black boots with four-inch spike heels, check. Slutty black thong with black devil-tail pinned uncomfortably to the back of it, check. "If anyone pulls on that..." Katrina thought. She took another gulp of vodka and decided not to think about it. Slutty black corset, check. It barely covered her midriff and her boobs were bursting out of the top - she wasn't sure if it was tight enough at the back to hold in place properly. Devil horns poked out of her thick, long black hair. Check. Black leather collar and wristbands to complete the sex slave look, check. Plus whip and big black bat wings to finish it all off, check.
She continued to psyche herself up. James was right, if anyone had the looks and figure for this outfit it was her. In her very early twenties, she had the long slim legs and the slim waist of an athlete, and full, firm breasts that were propped up proudly by the corset. At 5'9 she was pretty tall, and tonight with the heels she'd be strutting around at 6'1 and looking down on a lot of people. That helped her confidence. But damn, she was showing a lot of bare flesh. She felt half-naked. She was half-naked. Her reflection's big blue eyes didn't look totally confident, but they might with a few more drinks. She downed the remains of her third vodka, and reapplied her blood red 'Hellbent' lipstick.
"Okay," she called to her boyfriend, "I'm ready."
After wrestling with her wings and coat (she had to remove the former to put on the latter) and taxi cab, they made it to the nightclub. They met up with a couple of James' friends (dressed, as he was, in geeky wizard outfits), whom he left Katrina with to help put her wings back on while he queued to check in their coats.
Near the bar, a trio of twenty-something girls in school uniforms jealously looked her up and down. With their pigtails, miniskirts, and bra-revealing, front-knotted blouses, they looked pretty slutty, but Kat certainly out-did them, and was attracting way more attention. A number of guys were obviously admiring her outfit. One of them -- a short, stocky guy in a sailor uniform -- came up to her.
"Nice costume! So... what are you supposed to be exactly?"
"A succubus," Kat responded.
"A suck-you-puss? You want to suck me, Puss?" The guy laughed loudly and took a swig from his glass of beer. Judging from his breath, it was certainly not his first glass.
Katrina smiled awkwardly but did not respond.
"Well," asked the guy, "do you?" Their was a glimmer of excitement in his eyes. Did he really expect her to do that? She looked around for support from James' friends but they offered none.
"Maybe later," she flirted back at the sailor wearily, "when I've had a lot more to drink."
He grinned broadly at her. "Well, what can I get you to start with?" and waved to the nearest bartender to buy Kat a drink. She let him.
James eventually returned, and Kat's sailor admirer gave her a long wink before moving on. James and his friends didn't look especially comfortable in a crowded club -- Kat guessed they'd be much more content at their computers playing video games -- but she was glad that they'd come out. She'd only been dating James a few months but he'd quickly become less enthusiastic about nightlife and already she'd ended up going out on her own on a few occasions, and getting into a few situations that she'd regretted the following morning.
They had a couple of drinks while enjoying the music and commenting on the costumes (both the impressive and the laughably poor) and acclimatizing to the general buzz. James' friends were especially impressed by his girlfriend's outfit.
"You know," James said to her, "to really look the part you need to wiggle your hips and smack yourself on the ass."
"What? Did I hear you right, 'cause I'm sure you just asked me to start spanking myself in front of all these people."
"Everyone will recognize it as a succubus move -- you just wiggle your hips, stick out your bum and smack it... and gasp a little. I know that you do a really cute gasp."
Katrina looked at James' friends with a skeptical expression.
One guy nodded knowledgeably. "It's true. It's a genuine succubus move."
Obviously seeing that she wasn't convinced, James added, "It's kind of a trademark. It's well-known. That, and admiring your fingernails."
After a little more persuading and a shot of cream liquor, Kat relented, bending over a chair and smacking herself on the ass, as requested. It took a couple more practice tries before James told her that she had the gasp at the right pitch. It also drew a lot of attention from nearby onlookers and soon there was a little crowd clustered around. One guy asked if he could have a turn.
Feeling less than comfortable with the situation, Katrina looked to James for support but instead of asserting himself and taking control of the situation, he backed off and shrugged. He may as well have said "Sure, go right ahead and spank my girlfriend's ass." Which, interpreting his reaction as an invitation, is what they then proceeded to do. As people took turns slapping her, he laughed and smiled with the rest of them.
Kat, taken by surprise, found herself giving in to the humiliating ordeal, still looking at James helplessly, expecting him to intervene. The cheeks both on her face and on her proffered behind quickly reddened in unison. Some of the smacks really stung, and a couple of guys took even more advantage by sliding their lingering fingers briefly between her legs.
Eventually they stopped, and Kat excused herself, hurrying to the bathroom to recover her composure. Seeing herself in the mirror helped her feel better, especially with a chubby Red Riding Hood and an overweight, panda-eyed skeleton to compare herself to and make her feel even more tall and slender.
She rejoined the others, and was about to hiss "I can't believe you let that happen!" at James, but he spoke first.
"I can't believe you let those guys do that."
"What?! What about..."
"You can be a real slut sometimes, Kat. That's why I knew that secretly you'd love to wear an outfit like that."
"I can't believe you're..."
James muttered something else to cut her off, but it was partially drowned out by nearby laughter from a robot-man and someone in a Sarah Palin costume. Had he said "Don't think I don't know?"
"What did you say?"
"What drink d'you want now?" James said.
So the conversation was over. "Vodka and orange," Kat replied.
Another drink helped her to regain her buzz, and she left James and the others to look awkward near the bar while she went off to dance. She quickly began to enjoy herself again and dominated the dance floor, feeling the beat through her alcohol haze and letting the music take her. However, it was pretty crowded and her wings weren't making her many friends among the other nearby dancers.
