A little grim, my hands passed through my silvery hair as I leaned back in my chair, terrified by the thought.
"Think about if Ves turns out to diddle little boys." Said Lily turning my heart black.
I knew she was just fucking with me. I knew it. But… My god. I felt my heart drop to my gut. Pain sprung through my already injured body as I stared into space.
Would I have to kill my boy one day? I can't take him to earth. He might become a school shooter. Damn it. What the Hell am I going to do? I know as hell I'm not taking him to the Hells. Can't have that fucker in a civilized area. Maybe the countryside… no, that can't work. The countryside is the breeding ground of incest… not unless I kill the people who partake in it. Hmm. That could work.
Secondly, I need to find out Lilith's stance. I might have to run away with the children. I know she wouldn't care what sin our son would commit.
FUCK! Am I overthinking this? No. My god, I married a woman I barely knew! All we do together is screw each other over! I don't know anything!
Vile Thoughts continued to race when Buer appeared, waving his palm over my eyes and pulling me back into reality.
"You good?" He asked with a sense of unfathomable depth in his eyes. "You're sweating. And a lot of it is blood."
"Still injured," I admitted shaking my head as my qi flared, searing away the blood as I sighed. "You got children?"
"Fallen having children is a revolutionary concept. The chances of Angel and Fallen having children at our level were so minuscule it was considered impossible. Even by people like Mephisto. The Abyss helped us get around that issue, but… it's still nearly impossible. Lucifer got lucky, as did a few others once we figured out the trick. But many of us are still without children. And from what I hear, with Lilith shutting down access to the Abyss, we will forever be without children. "
"It's a smart move. Close off something people want, and they'll pay top dollar for it. I'd have done the same. Seems Lilith wants to incorporate the Myriad Heaven's economy into the Abyss. It seems you need me not just to increase fertility but also to cultivate resources from the Abyss. And that's on top of manipulating my brother."
"True," Buer said.
"Then give me all eight Lords of Hell, in the fourth Heaven. Cultivations sealed. And I want three favors from the Council of Fallen. Similar to what happened between Zariel and Tenebrae. And I want the second Layer of Hell, Irkalla. "
"Interesting. We'll need to set parameters around the favors for obvious reasons. And there will be some negotiations with Dagon, but there shouldn't be much issue. I'll—"
"And I want direct access to Levatus, with unfettered access," I added, cutting Buer off, who frowned.
"Levatus is Lucifer's domain. The King of the Fallens domains." He coldly said, frowning deeply for the first time. His arms pressed behind his back as he leaned forward with narrowed golden-red eyes that blazed a curious and demonic light.
The only reason I wanted this much access was because of Aurelia. With her insane idea to take the Throne of the Father, I wanted to be able to enter the Ninth layer of Hell with none the wiser.
And if Aurelia is smart, which she is. She should have already told her father her plan. I could have the entire Order of Chaos base of operation in the Hells, and no one, not even Mephisto, would know.
"Fine. I will discuss it. But no promises."
"Well, I want one." I insisted, meeting Buer's level of intensity with my own. I stood to my feet without a tinge of emotion. " Speak with Lucifer."
Buer snorted and took a step back, turning towards the window once more. "Your plotting something." He said and burst into laughter. " A fine Realm Lord you'll make. Fine. But with your request, I'll need to skip dinner. Play with your toys. Think of it as our goodwill of sorts." He added and snapped his finger.
Suddenly my gaze swayed towards the twin doors that shot opened, towards a beautiful red hair succubus, bare to the bone for all eyes to see. She stood with her wings slightly arced and her tail wagging like a dog from left to right as she stepped in, gripping a leash.
Nectar dripped from between her legs. The succubus infectious gaze never left mine as she slid her fingers from her breast toward her nether region in a tantalizing manner. She gave a bewitching smile that made my blood boil and jerked the leash. Pulling what appeared to be eight globs of moving flesh.
"Have fun, my friend," Buer remarked, dissipating into a fine mist of darkness.
Suddenly a foul scent caught my nose, filling me in dread as it didn't originate from the body of these eight but rather the soul. I stared at the trail of blood and flesh tailing the eight pets when the succubus spoke.
"Sit."
And as if her words were law, they sat, almost sinking into a puddle of mush.
"Master Snow," The succubus called. And against all defenses I held, my boiling blood ran all the way down between my legs.
"You better hold it. If Lilith finds out, she'll screw you over by not committing any resources to the Hells." Lily warned.
Gulping down as a blaze entered deep into my bones, I sucked in a sharp breath. "Who are they," I said coldly, masking my lust behind a wall of indifference.
"The Eight Kings of the Nines, my Lord. Lord Buer is gifting them to you." She said when all of a sudden Ezra stood up.
"You carry the Asmodeus bloodline."
The succubus smiled and offered me the leash. " There yours, Master Snow. As… am… I."
Damn, you, Lilith. You owe me for this one. I want dinner, a hot bath, and booty. You owe me big time. Hurry up and birth those little fuckers so I can have my way with you!
"I'll pass." I coldly said, taking the lease and giving it a good tug as the eight pets yelped like an abused dog.
"Oh, this is going to be fun."
