------------ Ceria's Estate, Hell ------------
Tom followed Ceria's servant down the narrow staircase with Adze close behind, her leash wound tight around his hand to keep her from falling behind. Supposedly, there was a place down here that was so quiet that you could hear other people breathing even through these thick walls. Tom hoped that he could get away from all the sexual activity above.
Every step down made him feel a little less bothered by the various moans and screams of demons enthralled in their passion. Adze constantly egged his libido on, sending phantom noises into his ears and whispering obscene things to him under her breath. Tom hated to admit it, but even with her greatest weapon shut down, she was still making it extremely difficult for him to keep his hands off her.
The staircase ended and the servant turned to Tom and Adze at the bottom.
"This place is shared by the other honored guests Lady Ceria has invited. She felt you should be forewarned, lest you feel threatened by the presence of others here."
"Threatened?" Tom asked. "By who? Guests like me?"
The servant sounded confused. "Like you?"
"Yeah, humans, like me?"
"No, you are the only honored guest from the mortal kingdom." He stopped for a moment to think. "There is another, but I do not know their name."
Adze sniffed the air and looked directly at Tom. "This is a water vault, isn't it? I'm going for a dip." She continued through a corridor hewn roughly out of stone and into a large natural cave spotted with pools of dark water and large, sloping pillars of stone that were as big around as trees. Adze stopped as the slack on her leash came up short. Even in the dim light from behind them, Adze's naked body was still stunningly beautiful.
"Wait, can you even swim with all this stuff on?" the agent asked as Adze looked around like she knew where she was going. If she fell in, he didn't know if she'd just sink straight to the bottom of one of these holes and drown. He didn't want to imagine what kind of trouble he'd get in with Ceria if Adze up and died in his care, even if Ceria did seem like she was just fucking with the succubus.
"They're not deep enough to drown in, not unless you've got someone on top of you," she grinned deviously.
"Okay, well, whatever then." He turned quietly to the servant next to him. "Can you get me something better to cover her eyes with?"
The demon nodded. "I will fetch something appropriate. She is a succubus, correct?"
Tom nodded. "Yeah. Thanks." The servant left shortly thereafter, and as his absence because apparent, Adze reached out to Tom with her hands blindly.
"Can you take these things off my legs? I can't step down into the water with my ankles like this." She raised her foot a little higher than the steps had each been and the chain jerked tightly. Tom debated whether or not to do it, and figured that with so many people having seen her face that even if she did just bolt, they'd be able to catch her, hands bound and blind.
He took the key from his pocket and unlocked the anklets, setting them beside the mouth of the corridor they'd come through to pick up later. Adze raised her legs and few times each, testing her ability to move them again.
Once she was satisfied with her freedom, the succubus tip-toed to a pool of water and dipped her foot into it. In seconds, light bloomed forth from its crystalline base like a flower facing the sun, washing over the area around the pool with blue phantoms as the surface rippled at Adze's touch. She slipped into the water slowly, gently tugging the slack in her leash until Tom only held the very end of the chain in his fist.
Adze sank beneath the water without a sound and stayed motionless in the light for a few moments before rising back out of it again, her entire body glistening like an oiled model. She turned to face the agent, smirking as he tightened his grip on her leash. God, she was fucking gorgeous.
"Why don't you come join me," she suggested. "I promise I won't suck you dry yet."
Tom scoffed. "Right, I'm supposed to let my dick think for me and do a swan dive into your arms."
Adze extended her arms and her smirk faded into a gentle expression. "Let your heart think for you, human."
"Oh? Love? Love you?" Tom asked, almost not believing what he'd heard. "You want me to love you? Well, the last people my heart felt anything for were murdered in front of my face. You're gonna have to try harder than spouting 'all you need is love' to get me in the sack."
Adze seemed to relent as she relaxed and propped herself up on her elbows against the edge of the pool, folding her arms over one another. She looked at Tom, though not directly.
"You're different from the other humans. Most of you are not so cautious."
"I've been through this more times than the average guy. I know my way around a succubus."
Adze raised a brow. "You could always prove it to me. Right here." She opened her mouth and let her tongue loll out, dripping with long strands of saliva.
"You can see me somehow, can't you?" the agent asked.
Adze shook her head, licking her lips. "No, I can
taste
you. You're too worked up to miss."
Tom decided to change the subject as quickly as he could. "Moving on...Ceria said you were spying for Fentin."
Adze let out an amused snort. "Probing for information, champion?"
"Not for Ceria, no." Tom took off his shoes and socks and rolled his pants up to drape his legs over the edge of the pool and rest his sore feet. The water was pleasantly cool, and the fact that Adze couldn't see that she was between his legs saved him from a good bit of back-and-forth banter at the moment.
"And I'm to believe you when you lie about your true intentions and desires?" She reached out idly and managed to brush her fingertips against his zipper. She flicked her fingers and had his pants unbuttoned before he could react.
He pushed himself away hard. "What t- fuck Adze, stop."
"Please," she snorted. "You're lying to yourself. You're so hot for me you could make fire without spark or flame." She swallowed hard and licked her lips wetly, saliva dripping from her mouth.
"You must really like this, being my slave," Tom remarked.
The succubus shrugged. "Whatever gets a hard, thick cock in my mouth."
