Jack sat in his chair, as Eris curled up in his bony lap atop his robe. Slightly at a loss but not showing it, Jack reached down with his large skeletal hand and began to gently rub along the back of Eris that was facing up to him.
It became more awkward to Jack as she began to make certainly enjoyable noises...
"Didn't you know I was going to come to visit you as soon as I was updated?" Jack asked, trying to ignore the sounds being issued by her.
"MMmmmm, but I'm impatient... Your other Consort received favor, why can't I receive mine?"
"Her name is Consort Leslie, your first sister. Your second sister is named Consort Emily... Please remember their names."
"MMMmmmm, Okay..." Eris simply agreed, while not seeming to pay much attention.
Jack seeing that Eris didn't really care, lifted his hand and swatted her backside, with a soft 'pop.'
Eris gasped in response, as she looked up to Jack with a teasing but flirty gaze, "Remember their names. You want to be a pet? Then my pets need to be able to follow my direction."
"Consorts Leslie and Emily..." Eris said meekly, while a deep lust formed in her eyes as she stared at Jack's hand that had just swatted her.
Jack made just to always look in her eyes, as he was afraid to let his gaze roam any on her body, and thus seen this expression and desire.
He hesitated and spoke again, "Do you want more of that? I only do this to discipline. I don't think it should be used otherwise."
Eris whispered, "It... It can be used a little bit though... Right?"
[...fuck it.]
"Then ask me."
"MMmmm...?"
"Ask me what you want."
"I want..."
"What want?"
"Discipline... I don't think I learned my lesson... I need more lessons... Please." Eris breathed heavily though she whispered her desire that Jack could almost not hear even with his level of sensitivity.
'pop'
"Oooh."
'pop'
"Ooooooh!"
Jack asked if Eris had enough, and it seemed she hadn't... Several more rounds later, and Jack had already become numb to this inappropriate play, though he still felt slightly odd. He did, however, enjoy her reaction. Especially that high pitched whine, and how her legs drew closer to herself, as she trembled.
He'd be lying to say if he didn't like it.
Jack rubbed the abused area softly, as he spoke, "I think that's enough."
"...MMMmmmm... I'm not a very good Vampire, so I'm sure I will need more of this..." Eris spoke lightly, then whispered softly, "A lot more."
Jack simply shook his head... He then asked, "Do you mind if I see?"
"You have my heart... So my everything is already yours to play with..." Eris said with a teasing tone.
Jack mentally sighed, as he was unsure how to handle this creature. He lifted up her robe to expose that fleshy rear part and see that it was striped with long red streaks that overlap... No doubt due to the bones in his hand.
"Let me sooth this." Jack lifted his hand to heal this area, as he knew a few healing hymns, even if he had never improved or used them.
Just as Jack was going to hum out his hymn, Eris pleaded, "No!"
Jack's gaze turned to stare at those eyes, as he was wondering what was wrong...?
"I... I want you to leave it like that."
"...Why..." Jack was afraid to ask, but couldn't help himself.
In a rare scene, Eris blushed. This dazzling display of pinkish hue that splotched her face and continued down her neck near dazed Jack...
She whispered softly, "I want to sit later and enjoy the feeling..." Eris then turned her face down and covered her face with her god's robe.

*******
Jack floated through the twisted corridors of the Holy Palace with his laptop in hand making his way to Emily's room. He dreaded this talk, as he was going to reveal Eris as his newest Consort... In all honesty, he wanted to take Eris but she was... Indisposed at the moment.
Jack looked to his right hand, and flexed it a few times, as if in remembering the spongy and springing sense of feeling it had received earlier.
[I need to be in control... If I lose myself to that feeling, then I won't be able to stop.] Jack shook his head as he realized the threat that Eris posed. Not a lethal threat to him, but one that could cause his fall and ruin his unlife.
Tossing the thoughts to the side, he found himself in front of Emily's door. Hesitantly, Jack knocked on the door.
After a moment, Emily's voice drifted through the door, "Come in."
Jack waved his hand, as the door opened, and he went inside to see that Emily was at her desk, with papers strung all over the room. Truly the workplace of a mad woman.
"Ah... What's all this?"
"Homework by High Alchemist Raleigh..." Emily moved a few papers to the side and then left her chair to look over a large tome on the floor. She flipped through the large pages until she found what she wanted. She went back to her desk to write a few more things down.
After nodding her head, she left her desk and went to go stand on a chair in front of a makeshift lab set up on the other side of the room. Jack watched as she pulled vails and poured different solutions into a beaker, as she placed it over a small flame.
She then went back to the other side, and this scene repeated for Jack a few times, as he watched her make notes, go through books, and then work with different things in that small lab set up.
Finally coming from his daze, "Ummm... What are you working on at the moment?"
"Producing a flesh-eating formula that dissolves meat from bone, to help Zombie undead transition to Skeletal undead," Emily spoke absentmindedly.
"Oh. That sounds intreating." Jack rubbed his chin a few times.
Emily made no comment as she continued her work.
Jack then spoke, though hesitantly, "Ah, well... I have something I need to talk to you about..."
"Yeah, I'm sure the coming of age ceremony will be this evening. Thank you. It will be great to have a larger body. It will be nice when I don't have to get up and down out of this chair so much." Emily spoke offhandedly, as she crossed the room again, to stand on that chair next to the lab set up.
"Longer arms would help too." Emily made another remake.
"Yes, I have Lucius setting that up as We speak. I hope you like the body I chose." Jack felt funny talking to Emily, as she wasn't really paying attention to him.
"I'm sure it's great," Emily spoke, as she muttered a few alchemist lingo, that Jack didn't understand, as she rotated the vails and put one into what Jack believed to be a centrifuge.
"I, Uh, I came to speak about something else, as well." Jack finally got to his main point.
"...Yeah...?" Emily hopped off the chair, and went to one of the walls that had pages stuck to it, and pulled a few notes down, and went back to her desk, as she crawled back up to scribble a few more things down.
"Ummm... The Vampire princess has become my Consort." Jack didn't know where to begin, as he just blurted out what he wanted her to know.
Emily didn't rise from her notes as she spoke, "I saw that coming."
"...Yeah?" Jack asked, but didn't defend himself.
"Yup. In fact, I believe I was the one that told you about it." Emily hopped down to go to another tome, as she lifted the cover and went through it.
"I can help you if you like?" Jack spoke, as he saw that she was having a tough time getting around the room, with her size.
"Don't need it. I'm very close to getting this right." Emily spoke again, as she wrote a few things from this tome, and went back to her chair.
"Oh..." Jack felt slightly dejected.
[Why do I feel like my last life...?] Jack wondered.
Jack thought over it, and couldn't come to a reason why he felt like this. In the end, he tossed the thoughts and walked over to Emily. He tousled her hair a bit, as his hand slide down her jawline. He used a bit of pressure to lift her chin and she was finally pulled away from her work.
For the first time since Jack entered into the room, she looked at him and into those flaming eyes of his.
"Don't work too hard... Please..." Jack asked softly.
Warmth filled her, as she saw those flaming eyes that danced ever so slowly for her, and heard his pleading on her behalf.
Emily nodded her head, as Jack leaned over, and rubbed his forehead and hers together in an intimate way.
Jack rose and spoke, "I'll leave you to your work, but please don't work too hard. After the ceremony, I would like to spend time with you. If you want to, that is..."
Emily spoke with some tenderness, "Of course."
Jack leaned back over, and rubbed foreheads again before he exited the room, he stood by the doorway, with his back to Emily, as he spoke, "If things get too hard in your work. Take a break, and remember I will always support you, in everything you do. No matter what anyone says, your Queen-Mother, the whole Underworld says, even Leslie... I will always be there for you when you need me."
Jack left the room, but as he did these words lingered in the air left behind, "I love you, always remember that."
Emily sat in her chair in a dream-like state. She felt the bitterness she had this last month drift away into the air, and the suffocating feeling in her soul lift. Emily looked down at the gold and onyx ring on her finger, and she used her right hand to touch it. This was his promise to her. Feeling warm she thought that the alchemy she was working so hard on was worth it, because... It was to help him.
[He loves me... I will always remember that.] Emily thought to herself, as she turned back to pick back up where she left off.
