The Witch's Offering

Chapter 3

Ren pushed himself up, his hands sinking into the lush lawn. Wiping a couple of stray blades of grass off his face, he brought himself up to a kneeling position. Lethe had stepped out of the car to check on him while Katherine was walking around the front of the vehicle rubbing her stomach where it ached from laughing.

Taking in his surroundings, his face fell. The mansion wasn't really a mansion, in his mind at least. Instead of a towering Victorian-style building with a grand courtyard and a circular drive like in the movies, the structure in front of him looked more like a Frank Lloyd Wright building on steroids. Sharp angles and huge windows dominated the house, and water ran down a curved sheet of acrylic that covered part of the walkway leading to the front door. It was certainly a lot larger than the five-bedroom house he shared with Jaycee and a couple of other students just off campus, but still didn't fall into the realm of 'mansion.'

Lethe held out a hand and helped him to his feet as a car's headlights illuminated them from the side. Without thinking, Ren stepped in between the witch and the oncoming car, shielding her naked body from view. His wide eyes as he looked between the naked woman and the catgirl made it plain what he was thinking.

The witch melted against his chest, a hand running down to stroke the front of his pants. "Mmmm," she purred, "nice to see that chivalry isn't dead. But for future reference, we could have been having an orgy and they wouldn't have cared. Even if they did they wouldn't remember by the time they got past the house."

"Wouldn't have cared?" Ren asked. She had mentioned before that the people at the club wouldn't remember the night but why would the people passing by disregard a yard full of people having sex? Someone would at least want to stop and watch, or even join in. With the way she was rubbing him, the last option was sounding like fun.

"Because everyone who lives in this subdivision is in on the existence of magic and monsters," said Katherine. "In fact, I live just across the street so I can be here for Mistress Lethe at a moment's notice. Having our own gated community makes it easier to manage who comes and goes. Those who aren't given permission to enter may see, or even do, many things but will forget it all as soon as they exit the premises. When they leave they will have a feeling of disappointment and no desire to return, regardless of whether or not they joined in the orgy here in the front yard." She looked down at Lethe's hand, "If you are going to keep that up then at least whip it out so I can get a taste instead of wasting it on the inside of his underwear."

The witch smiled at the catgirl and sighed as she pulled her hand away from Ren's groin. "Sadly, I can't let you do that. Xaal would be pissed if I gave her a virgin that was already drained."

"Drained?" asked Ren with a worried expression as he tried to hide his disappointment her hand had stopped.

"Of semen, dear, nothing more. I meant what I said earlier, those under my protection are in no danger from succubi."

"If Xaal doesn't run you off or ruin you for all other women right off the bat, then 'drained' will become a common feeling for you. Human men are in high demand in our world," said Katherine.

Ren thought for a moment. "I call bullshit. There's a whole city out full of men you could take your pick from," he said with a broad sweep of his arm at the sprawling metropolis around them.

"You would be correct," said the witch as she began walking across the yard towards the front door indicating that the other two should follow. "However, the magical world has rules about who we bring into the fold. Inviting a human in for only pleasurable pursuits is strictly forbidden, they must have some type of primary purpose. The human must also have a degree of flexibility," she opened the door and lead the way inside, "we consider the humans among us to be an investment."

"Can't say as I can be all that flexible. My college schedule is pretty gruelling and whatever time doesn't get eaten up by homework is taken up by my side job." Mom and Dad had never been 'wealthy' in their entire lives and were doing their best to keep up with the bills that his scholarships didn't cover. That still left Ren needing to make some money unless he didn't mind starving. He knew if he was in dire straits then he could always call and they would make sure he was taken care of. However, he hated the idea of doing that since he knew how strapped they were already. Thankfully, in his sophomore year, he signed on with a local computer repair shop and made decent money doing on-site tech support for them. It wasn't much, but it kept food on his plate and occasionally gave him the opportunity to do things like go out with Jaycee and Brit.

"Not that kind of flexibility," she said stopping in the house's enormous living room. Getting up on her tip-toes she tapped Ren on the side of the temple. "Flexibility up here. If at any point you gave me a hint that you might be about to break then we wouldn't be having this conversation."

Ren slowed as he was distracted by the rail-less curved stair that ran up to the second story loft. For a moment it looked as though the steps were floating but quickly saw that the colors of the steel risers and supports were expertly shaded to match the wall behind. Taking a moment to look around he saw the front wall was completely made of glass panels and the short hedge outside didn't offer much in the way of privacy. The floor they were standing on was a wood that had been stained jet black. He quickly revised that assumption, with the opulence he was seeing around the room he had no reason to doubt that the wood was actual ebony. A large white rug covered the middle of the area with a set of couches and recliners arranged as a viewing and conversation area. The monochromatic theme of the living room was broken up by a huge sandstone-colored slate fireplace with an equally huge big screen hung above it.

Peering closely, he saw that whoever installed the TV did an amazing job. They ran all of the wires in a jagged sunburst pattern along the grout in between the slate then painted them to match. For the sake of symmetry, the same thing was done on the other side but with fake wires.

Ren realized what he was doing and looked over at the women. Lethe and Katherine stood waiting for him with bemused expressions next to an elevator door located just beyond the stairs.

"Sorry," he said, blushing with embarrassment. Here were two beautiful women, one naked and the other a catgirl who only a couple of minutes ago said she wanted to taste his cum, okay maybe she didn't say exactly that but close enough, and here he was critiquing a television install. What the fuck was wrong with him anyway?

Rejoining them, Ren looked curiously at the stairs, then at the elevator, then at the ceiling, then finally at the witch.

"We're going down," she explained, answering his unspoken question as she pressed the call button. "Summoning demons was not always as civil as it is now, the circle is ensconced in many layers of protection just in case anything goes wrong."

"How many layers is enough?"

"One layer is enough. Two is overkill. There's a total of six between us and the room we are going to. I've dealt with some of the worst beings within the realms of hell. Because of that, I don't take chances."

There was a strange churning sound that came to a stop just before the doors opened that was nothing like any elevator he had ridden. "Is this safe?"

"Completely," replied Lethe, stepping in. "The elevator shaft is protected with warded doors that open and close to let the carriage pass through. It's hard to run cables through titanium doors so we went with a gear system for moving the elevator."

"Titanium?" he asked joining her with Katherine following a second later. "Holy shit," he whispered when he turned around. The control panel started at 2 and went down, all the way to B13.

Katherine pressed the B7 button as Lethe spoke. "Yes, titanium. Iron and steel aren't very fond of magic, never have been." The carriage began slowly moving down. "Titanium is neutral toward magic and nearly as plentiful as iron, just more difficult to process. If you see something metal best to assume it's not made of anything containing iron."

"Hmm, must be hard to hang up the kids' drawings on the refrigerator."

Lethe laughed, "Yes we probably do go through a bit more double-sided tape than human communities."

The elevator slowed and came to a stop, seconds later there was a small thump above them followed by a whirring noise below. B1 lit up on the panel, this was going to be a long ride.

"I don't know if your judgment of my mental flexibility is accurate," said Ren after a brief pause. "There have been a few times tonight I've wanted to run away screaming. I have to admit the closer we get to meeting this succubus the stronger that feeling gets."

"Succubi are powerful creatures and Xaal is no different. Your fear is rational, especially considering you are putting your life and safety into my hands and we are still only counting how long we've known each other in hours. Being afraid of the things you should be afraid of isn't a weakness, it's survival. What would have concerned me is if your fear became irrational and say... you were terrified of Kat here, not because she threatened you in any way but just because she isn't human."

"Well I did kind of threaten him," said the catgirl meekly.

Ren smiled, "And not once have I called you Toonces."

"Wise choice."

Though it was only six floors, the airlock system for each floor made the elevator ride take forever and the three of them chatted amiably for the duration. Ren noticed the witch preening a couple of times as he stared too long at her naked body. Damn did she look good and he could even see the slickness on the inside of her thighs. The thought of tasting her again was making his mouth water. Katherine seemed to be in a similar state and was rubbing her thighs together while staring at Lethe's crotch and licking her lips. He had to admit that the catgirl was looking pretty hot herself with her face flushed with arousal and her hands clenching as she tried to keep them out of the slacks of her chauffeur's uniform.

"Um... Lethe? How long was that drink you gave me earlier supposed to last?"

Katherine shook her head. "It's still working, her scent just gets really overpowering on these trips down to the summoning room." She glanced over at him, her eyes only meeting his for a moment before being drawn like a magnet to his prick pressing against the front of his pants. "Usually I don't have to restrain myself with whoever is riding along but you are a special case. Ugh... I hope Xaal doesn't take too long, I need something in my pussy."

"Sorry you two, it's one of the few things I have no power over." Looking at Ren she explained, "The spell that boosted my pheromones altered the fabric of my being. It's not something I can turn off with a bit of magic. Once we get into the clearer air of the summoning room the effects should lessen substantially."

Ren must have adjusted his erection twenty times before they heard the soft thump of the panel above closing. Lights came on in the room before them as the doors opened. Glass panels etched with runes and eldritch markings obscured Ren's view at first, as they proceeded down the curved hallway he was able to make out a large platform in the middle of the room with what must have been the summoning circle on it. Surrounding the platform was more glass panels that took up the rest of the room's floor. Suspended just below the etched floor panels were huge twelve-foot-tall obelisks made of quartz, though it was the clearest quartz he had ever seen. The hallway opened up into a large room with a titanium door that led into the central area on one side and what looked like a small apartment on the other separated by more etched glass. She really seemed to like the whole glass theme.

The apartment was relatively spartan with a small kitchenette on the right side and a large bed on the left, big enough to sleep at least four comfortably. In the middle, and partially obscured by a metal door, was an entertainment and reading area with bookcases set into the wall on either side of a flat-panel television. Also set into the back wall was a restroom that offered no privacy whatsoever. The wall, door and shower doors were all clear glass.

The entrance to the summoning chamber was a sterile-looking white wall like everywhere else besides the apartment, that at least had warm looking mahogany panelling and a lush carpet, except for the tile in the bathroom and kitchen area. Ren seriously thought places with this kind of look only existed in movies. Part of him wanted to look at one of the girls and say "Guns, lots of guns," just to see if racks of them would appear from the walls.

Lethe walked over to the door and took a small pad of paper from a holder next to it, writing the name of the succubus down before ripping off the top sheet. Placing her hand on the wall above the holder, the area lit up with a green glow as it scanned her palm and fingers. The door opened with a tinkling chime, granting the witch access.

Katherine came up next to him and briefly ran her hand over the bulge in his pants before sighing in frustration and looking toward Lethe's retreating form. "If you were expecting seances, candles, and people chanting magic words in a dark room, prepare to be disappointed. Summoning has come a long way in the last few decades."

The crystals beneath the floor began to glow pink along with the circle in the middle of the room. Lethe tossed the piece of paper into the circle and took a few steps back.

"Come on," said the catgirl as she tugged the human toward the door. "It may not be what you were expecting but it's still pretty cool to watch. She writes the name down so there's no chance of accidentally misspeaking," she explained as Ren allowed himself to be pulled along. "All of the rituals you probably heard of or saw before were mainly to gather the power needed for the actual summoning. Lethe gathers power from the people living in this community and stores it in the crystals."

"Gathers power?"

"She's an eromancer. When people have sex she takes a little bit of that energy to use for things like this. Every house around us has a conduit crystal somewhere in it for that purpose. If you think of pleasure during sex on a graph and the orgasm is a sharp spike, the conduit snips off the tip of the spike and rounds it out a bit. The tip goes into the crystal and the people getting off have a slightly less intense orgasm that lasts longer. As an added benefit the guys are usually up for a second round a lot quicker."

The glowing from the circle was beginning to leave streaks that pointed toward the ceiling. The paper Lethe had tossed into the circle lifted off the floor as if carried by a stray breeze and fluttered into the air for a moment before disappearing in a puff of flame.

"If she isn't busy, she should be here soon," said the witch as they walked up behind her. Ren's attention was drawn to the huge crystal below them. What appeared to be large fibre-optic cables connected to the top and bottom pulsed with energy as they drew magic from the gem and fed it into the center platform. The bottom and sides of the crystal's pit were covered in pipes, tubes and wiring. He assumed it was all for some specific purpose though he had no clues to what that might be.

He looked back towards the summoning circle as a column of fire erupted from the center and quickly dissipated, leaving an attractive brunette dressed in a sharp-looking business suit.

"You are a lifesaver!" said the woman with a happy smile when she saw Lethe. "Satan and Lucy were getting into a pissing match over Lucy's new plan and I was sick to death of listening to them bicker," she said as she walked toward them. Holding up the slip of paper with her name on it, she continued, "You have no idea how much I love these little notes you send. It makes it so much easier to get out of boring and unwanted obligations when I can hold this up as proof that I was just summoned." Letting the paper fall to the thick glass they were standing on she stepped up to the witch and wrapped her in a tight hug that Lethe returned. As they separated Xaal leaned down and took one of the naked woman's breasts in her hand before a serpentine forked tongue flicked out and teased the witch's nipple. Moving over to Katherine she gave her a kiss on each cheek in greeting but nothing more.

"Who might this be?" asked the succubus, separating from the catgirl and staring hungrily at Ren.

He had taken a step back when the woman casually walked out of the summoning circle. He had expected there to be some kind of invisible wall to keep creatures contained. Instead, there was only a couple of tiny sparks to denote there was anything there at all. Now he just stared at her in confusion. If her physique hadn't thrown him off then her demeanor and the warm greetings from the woman certainly had. If it weren't for the forked tongue and her holding up the paper with her name, there would be no reason to think she was anything but a normal woman.

"This is Ren, I brought him for you," said the witch.

Xaal looked over at her. "For me?"

"Twenty-two-year-old virgin. He passed up the chance to get laid earlier tonight because he didn't want to be his friend's charity case. Intelligent, strong mind, and he agreed to this on his own."

"Fuck, I might need a change of panties after all that, if I wore them. It's too perfect, Lethe. What's the catch?"

"You only get his virginity, I want him."

"Surely you have plenty of toys to play with, you can give up one," said the succubus as she eyed up the human like a piece of meat.

The witch shook her head, "Not negotiable, I'll sit on his cock right now if you don't agree. Max is getting old and he can't keep up with the new tech the humans are putting out all the time. I need a new IT guy and I think Ren here will be a perfect fit." Lethe ignored the muffled laughter from the catgirl.

"Oh," said the demon, standing up straighter and looking surprised. "You're bringing this one in? Not just wiping his memories and sending him on his way with his balls drained?"

"Exactly."

"Well damn." She contemplated the human for a long while before speaking. "Belgrun is still the top pick for the new ruler of the second level..."

"Lust," Katherine whispered in Ren's ear.

"... and I need to be in that spot. Once there, enough of Belgrun's followers will defect to me that I should be a shoo-in. The easiest way to do that will be a direct challenge and getting your virginity might give me what I need to take him on without worry." She looked over at Lethe, "I need a couple of days to get this set up. Can you keep him virginal for me until then?"

The witch shook her head as Ren groaned in frustration. "I've had him on edge for some time now, I won't torture him like that for three days or however long you end up taking."

Xaal sighed, "Fine. Three days, hands and mouth only. Last day he goes without so he's nice and full when I come to collect."

"I can live with that. What about you Ren?"

"For the next two days I can only get blowjobs and handjobs? Other than these two no one has really shown much interest so it's not like that will affect much."
