Hey everyone, this is my first attempt at an erotic story. I've started other chapters, but I may or may not be posting them. Depending on the response I get here, I'd be absolutely happy to post them, and tweak them some if that would make them better. I'm totally open to taking suggestions and criticism from who want to be constructive.
Anyways, this story is based on the work Kenko Cross has done with the concept of mamono and monster girls. I hope I do it justice. Let me know how you all are enjoying it.

A thousand years ago, the world changed. People lived in constant fear of death and destruction. If you lived near any sort of wilderness, you made sure your family was tucked away before the sun went down. If you lived near any type of ocean, you never went too far from the main land. If you were near caves or mountains, you kept a light burning all night long. Things like these were what you expected to do, never knowing if they would really work to protect you family. But that was a thousand years ago, and things are very different now.
Monsters no longer hunt humans like they use to. Most people aren't afraid of some monster coming in the middle of the night to destroy them, and there isn't a real reason to fear it these days. After all everything changed when the current demon lord rose to power. A thousand years ago, people say that the former lord of the demon realm was assassinated, and his throne was taken by a succubus of the highest class. Using a strange and forbidden magic, she bound the souls and bodies of monster all over the world to her, changing both their nature and physical form. In an instant, monsters everywhere became fond of humans just like there new mistress.
See, the vast majority of monsters are collections of demonic energy given physical form. For thousands of years, the nature of that energy was to consume. Demons, monsters and the like would ravage villages and countries, consuming and destroying everything within their sight. That was what their purpose was, that's what they were created to do. But since the current queen of the infernal realms came to power, she changed that. For reasons unknown, she is fond of humanity. As a succubus, she sustains herself off the power of male souls, but still she isn't interested in killing. Most of her kind would drain a man so completely that they'd shrivel up, a husk of his former vitality. But she only wants to take enough to survive.
And since the nature and physical form of monsters and demons everywhere reflects her nature, you can imagine what that means. Most monsters these days are concerned only with the seduction of human men. Maybe I should say men in general, after all there are other races that are neither human nor demon. The elves, the dwarves, the fairies, none of which are human, but all of which are naturally occurring like humans. Monsters on the other hand, are now all female, and pursue men of any race with the same fever as they used while pursuing our destruction all those years ago.
Though most people no longer live in fear of humanities eradication, most now only fear for their sons and daughters humanity. The "Mamono" as monsters call themselves now, reproduce in two ways. The first, most common way, is seducing a man, turning him in to an incubus, and using him to bread. The change from human to incubus varies from person to person, but occurs any time a man is exposed to demonic energy. Even if it's just a little, it will slowly change a man of any race into an incubus over time. But the change really only effects the body, making it easier to get it up and keep it up for extended periods of time.
Women on the other hand, don't have it as easy, because the second means of mamono reproduction is infection. Few of the mamono races can do this, but those that can, convert women in to mamono versions of their former selves. It's far less common than normal reproduction because it can only be done by one of the pure succubus races. For instance, a harpy or a werewolf wouldn't be able to do this, nor would the vast majority of monsters. But, demons, such as the Vampires, Lilim, Amazons, Alps, Alicesess, and last but not least, the succubus, can do this almost at will. Fortunately, most of them are so concerned with capturing "Husbands" that they leave human women pretty much alone.
Finding one of the real demons is pretty rare, but there are other things that are even rarer. For instance, angelic beings are nearly impossible to find. They are pretty much just angelic energy given physical form. Different angels do different things, or so I'm told. No one really knows because it's been a couple ten thousand years since anyone has seen them. There are also elementals. Elementals are pretty much condensed magical energy given physical form. You're probably noticing a pattern here. Take a lot of any kind of energy in one place, and bang, you get some kind of something.
In school, they teach you all about it. Which types of mamonos to avoid, which types are okay to interact with, how to avoid he ones that aren't, and how to tell when you are about to be attacked. These are all pretty much standard things to learn in school, and since most town and villages have some kind of agreement, the mamono are allowed in the villages to try to find husbands or mates or whatever. Some mamono even establish their own villages. That was something I learned the hard way.
Amazons, are pretty much a group of warrior women that like to live in the forest. I had gotten lost in the forest near our village when I was about seven, and never really made it back out. In our particular forest, there are two different mamono settlements. The amazons, a proud and violent race of warrior women who like to hunt for sport, food, and men, are the first forest dwellers in these parts. Second are the Kunoichi. The Kunoichi are succubus assassins. They pretty much spend their time perfecting the art of killing, so they can take assassination jobs for lords of the land. Both are a type of demon succubus, but they have a really strong rivalry.
My name Jason, and when I was found by the amazons, my friend Artemis and her mom who had been looking for food, or men, maybe both I don't know, and stumbled across me. Not knowing I was eventually going to end up property, I went along with them thinking they would help me get out of the village. They fed me, clothed me, and even put me up for a while. When I tried to leave, Artemis reminded (which involved slapping the crap out of me) that I was going to be staying with her from now on. And so I did.
It wasn't all bad though, in fact it might have been one of the best things that happened to me. While there, I learned a lot about fighting. And considering that the amazons are one of the most physically powerful and skilled races anywhere, I had some of the best teachers one could hope for. I was even allowed to do a little bit of training in the rival Kunoichi village. And now at the age of twenty, I'm one of the fiercest warriors around. Even among the amazons and the Kunoichi, I'm not one to be trifled with. Years of hard work and training has made me one of the few men in the village capable of physically competing with them.
A week ago, Artemis and her mother, who I had only ever addressed as Ma'am, sat down with me at dinner. This wasn't a rare occurrence, but tonight there was something different about each of them. Having grown up together, Artemis and I had bounded like siblings. Though I was never naive enough to think someday I'd escape being married to Artemis, a small part of me hoped it would never happen. And tonight was a reminder of that. As Ma'am sat down at the table she nodded to Artemis seriously, and motioned for her to speak. I watched Artemis as she flushed, and could tell that this conversation was going to be interesting at best.
"I know you probably already know this, but my twenty first birthday is coming up soon." She started looking at her plate, "And that means that if I don't chose a husband, than I won't be allowed to stay in the village." Artemis was now looking at me. "I'm a lot quieter than most of my sisters, and I haven't really gone looking for a husband, so mother thanks that it might be best if I just choose you."
Artemis wasn't wrong when she said that she wasn't as outgoing as most other amazons. On the battle field, or during a hunt, few could match her skill and blood lust. Most people in the village considered her to be among the strongest five warriors we had, and for good reason, she was death incarnate. But socially, she was far more reserved than her friends. Most young women in the village were very vocal about sex and who they desired it from. I myself sometimes had to fight to keep them from claiming me, which often times created a little animosity. But Artemis was never like that. She was quiet, shy and in contrast to her sisters in the village, quite conservative (or at least what humans would consider conservative) about sex and marriage.
