Dimensional Gap, Team DxD Base.
After a nice relaxing soak in the baths, Team DxD made their way up to their respective bedrooms to sleep. The exception being Azazel, whose room was still in a state of... disarray due to the punishment Baraqiel received from his wife Shuri. So, Baraqiel and Shuri slept in Azazel's room while Azazel headed back to Grigori's HQ. But not before attempting to set James ablaze with his glare.
"I don't know why he's so mad." James said with a shrug and an innocent expression on his face after the flash from Azazel's teleportation dimmed. "I mean, he should be responsible for his subordinate's actions, right?"
"First of all, you know exactly why he's so pissed off." Moka said, poking James in the cheek.
"Yeah, there's no way anyone will want to sleep in that room after what those two probably did." Mizore added with a smile.
"On top of that, he's not even Baraqiel's superior anymore." Sona said while adjusting her glasses.
"He's not?" James asked with a feigned expression of shock.
With that, the girls stopped trying. It was clear that James knew exactly what he was doing. It was also clear that if given the opportunity, he would do it again, too.
"Anyway, I'm gonna go to my own room tonight." Rias said with a smile. Then, her smile turned seductive. "I want to see how comfortable the bed is. But you're welcome to join me, James."
"Damn, she just said what everyone else was thinking." Akeno said with a pout. "How did she manage to get it out first?"
"Because the little redheaded exhibitionist has the least shame out of all of us." Flora said with a smile. "But the offer is open for me, too."
After that, all of James girlfriends, with the exception of Rossweisse who still thought it was a bit too early to be intimate like that, clamored to have James visit their room for the evening.
"Sorry girls." James said with awry smile. "I wanna see how comfortable my bed is, too. But I'd be glad to take you up on your offers next time."
Pouting in response, the girls did not make a fuss. Instead, they all gave James a kiss good night and made their way back to their own rooms. As the girls walked away, James was left standing in the corridor. On each of his sides were Ophis and Great Red.
"So, are you two going back now?" James asked, turning to look at the two strongest beings in this universe.
"No, I like it here." Great red said with an unintentionally seductive smile and sultry tone. "So, I'll be living here from now on. There are so many things to do here, after all."
"Go home, Dummy Red." ophis said in her usual monotonous voice. "Too noisy."
"Don't be like that Ophis." James said, patting Ophis on the head. "It's better to get along."
'Plus, if they started fighting here, I have no doubt that everyone would die faster than I could snap my fingers.' James thought to himself, cold sweat running down his back at the thought of those two dragons starting a fight here.
I'll prepare a room for you then." James said with a smile, looking back at Great Red.
"There's no need for that." Great Red said before she started walking in a certain direction. "I already know which room I want to sleep in."
Subconsciously, James' eyes fell on Great Red's swaying hips as she walked away.
'I hate to see her leave, but I love to see her walk away.' James thought absent mindedly before he snapped back to his senses and followed Great Red.
As they walked, Ophis naturally followed James while watching Great Red warily. Eventually, they stopped in front of a certain door, causing James to smile wryly.
"This is where I'll be sleeping from now on." Great Red said with a smile.
"Then, I guess I better go prepare a room for myself." James said awkwardly.
The room Great Red had chosen was the master suite that had been assigned to James earlier in the day. Knowing that fighting her for it was a fool's errand, James chose to give up the room.
'I guess I'll be going back on my word.' James thought to himself. 'But whose room should I go to?'
Before James could give it any real consideration, Great Red approached even closer. Then, like she had done before he gave her a tour of the building, she placed her right hand on his left cheek.
"Now, now, that won't be necessary, James." Great Red said, licking her full, luscious lips. "I would never be so rude as to kick you out of your own room. From now on, this will be our room."
James was completely taken aback by that declaration. Before he could come back from his daze, however, Great Red reached into his personal storage space and pulled the key to the room from it. Then, she unlocked the door and dragged James into the room. Ophis was also dragged along as she was holding onto James' arm even before Great Red made her declaration.
By the time James came out of his daze, he was seated on the side of his bed with the two dragon gods staring at him. Ophis with her blank stare and great Red with an amused smile.
"I've seen the dreams of those girls for a few years now." Great Red said with a bit of excitement in her tone. "So, I've always wanted to try this."
Before James could ask what she was talking about, Great Red took a step forward before sitting side saddle on James' lap. Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed herself onto his chest.
Meanwhile, James was marveling at the softness of Great Red's chest. She easily had the largest pair of breasts he had ever seen. And now, he could add felt to that description. This naturally caused him to wonder how they would feel in his hands, as well.
"This is quite comfortable. Those girls did not exaggerate the feeling in their dreams." Great Red said with a smile. Then, her smile became even more seductive before she started speaking again. "And it would seem that you're enjoying this as much as I am."
As she spoke the last sentence, Great Red began wiggling her hips on the hard object that was pressing against her from below. A moment later, she unwrapped her arms from around James' neck and pulled his arms around her waist.
"But you'll have to be stronger than me before I even consider mating with you." Great Red said, whispering into James ear before licking his ear lobe.
'What the hell?' James exclaimed in his head while he felt his pants getting a little tight, especially after the sensation Great Red's tongue brought to his ear. 'I thought the strongest being in this universe was supposed to be a dragon. So, why is a succubus sitting in my lap.'
At that instant, Maria, who had just laid down in her bed, sneezed.
"I wonder who is talking about me." Maria said with a smile before getting comfortable under the sheets.
Meanwhile, Ophis was staring at Great Red with annoyance. She had just stolen Ophis' favorite seat in all the realms. However, her eyes lit up when she remembered that James' lap was actually her second favorite seat. She then disappeared in a burst of speed.
And instant later, Ophis reappeared, sitting on James' shoulders. Then, she looked at Great Red, who shifted her eyes toward her when she appeared, with large amounts of pride and smugness in her eyes.
"I see, I guess that would be the perfect place to sit for such a child-like body." Great Red said with a smile.
Although there was no malice hidden in Great Red's words, Ophis felt as if an arrow had stabbed her in the heart. She had noticed long ago that most people treated her like a pet or a child, if they were not absolutely terrified of her identity. And she had also realized that it was due to the form she took this time around.
"Anyway, I'm sure today has been a long one for you, James." Great Red said, standing up from James' lap. "So, why don't we get some sleep."
A moment later, Great Red bent over and began unwrapping her heels' straps from around her calves. Then, she kicked them off and began stripping out of her dress in the next instant.
Once again, James was stunned into silence. His first instinct was to ask Great Red what she was doing. However, he knew that he would receive a response like: "Humans don't usually sleep in their clothes, right?" So, he just kept his mouth shut and watched her take her clothes off.
"What's wrong, James?" Great Red asked playfully, having noticed that James was just watching her undress. "You're not going to bed? Or do you need help getting undressed?"
Shaking his head with a wry smile on his face, James stood up before taking Ophis off his shoulders. Then, he began to undress as well. Although the thought of having Great Red help him take off his clothes was tempting, he knew that she was just teasing him.
A few moments later, James and Great Red had both stripped out of their clothes. And James, who was only wearing a pair of boxers, could not help but be amazed by Great Red's body, who was only clad in a lacy, purple pair of boyshorts.
"Like what you see?" Great Red asked playfully as she leaned forward slightly and placed her hands on her thighs while simultaneously pressing her breasts together with her upper arms.
"*Sigh* Let's just go to bed.' James said, ignoring the boner that was quite visible in his boxers.
Great Red giggled in response but decided not to tease the young man in front of her any further. Besides, getting in bed would let her try something else she had seen in the girls dreams.
After allowing Great Red and Ophis to climb into the bed, James flicked the light switch by the door and walked toward the foot of the bed. When he arrived, he could see Great Red patting the space between herself and Ophis with her hand while smiling at him. Sighing once again, James climbed onto the bed and crawled to the spot indicated by Great Red.
"Good night, James." Ophis said, lying on James left.
Like she always does, Ophis lay on her back with her hands clasped on her abdomen, looking like a corpse, while she slept.
"Night, Ophis." James said, patting Ophis on the head.
"Good night, James." Great Red said in a sultry tone as she pulled James' right arm and pressed it between her breasts and thighs. Then, she laid her head on James' shoulder.
"Night, Great Red." James said before closing his eyes to sleep, trying his best to ignore the heavenly sensation that could match what he felt when Gabriel pressed his arm between her breasts.
Instead of closing her eyes, however, Great Red pouted and glared at James.
Feeling Great Red's glare, James opened his eyes and looked at her with a helpless expression on his face.
"Do you want me to pat your head, too?" James asked.
Instead of replying verbally, Great Red nodded her head, looking surprisingly cute, causing James to smile. Then, he reached across his body with his left hand and patted Great Red on the top of her head.
"Good night, Great Red." James said with a smile while patting the surprisingly cute dragoness' head.
Immediately, Great Red's pout melted away and a content smile escaped her lips, tickling James' chest. Then, she looked at James with a happy smile.
"Aislynn." Great Red said.
"Come again?" James asked.
"Call me Aislynn." Great Red... or rather Aislynn said. "That's my actual name. Everyone only calls me Great Red because they don't know my real name."
"I see." James replied with a nod and a smile. "Then, good night, Aislynn."
Aislynn's smile widened. Then, she closed her eyes while thinking.
'When he's strong enough, I'll make him my mate.'
Just like that, the trio closed their eyes to sleep. However, while James and Aislynn slept, Ophis opened her eyes. Then, she looked at Aislynn with a complicated gaze. A moment later, those eyes were filled with determination before her formed was covered in a black light.
The next morning, James awoke in a situation he was quite familiar with. He was sandwiched between two women. On his right was Aislynn sleeping with a content smile on her face. However, he was not quite sure who was on his left, since Ophis should have been sleeping there.
Instead of a cute young girl lying next to him like a corpse, his left arm was enveloped in soft flesh and what he guessed were stocking clad thighs. Something he would not usually complain about. But he had to figure out who was lying next to him before he could fully enjoy this feeling.
Turning his head to the left James saw the top of a head of black hair with a dark blue tint that was probably long enough to reach the woman who is cling to his left arm's calves. Looking down, he saw a slender figure with relatively large breasts wrapped around his left arm. And as he suspected, a pair of legs wearing black, thigh-high stockings with lace lining the top of each stocking held his hand between them.
Feeling James beginning to stir, the unfamiliar woman on James' left, also began to wake up. Then, she tilted her head upward and looked into James' eyes. Which were still examining her.
When she tilted her head, James could see facial features that were similar to Ophis'. Except they looked much more mature. On top of that, her eyes were golden instead of grey like they were the night before. But the longer he looked at her, the more he felt that this was Ophis.
"Good morning, James." The woman said. "What's for breakfast?"
Hearing that question, James lost any doubt that this woman was in deed Ophis.
'I guess Aislynn's comment about being a child really struck a nerve.' James thought to himself.
Before James could reply, however, the door to his bedroom was kicked off its hinges. When he and Ophis looked in the door's direction, they saw a pale blue-haired beauty standing there with anger on her face.
"Do you have any idea what time it is?" Tiamat, who should have been in the Human World guarding the estate, roared. "We're supposed to be out shopping for jewelry! You're not trying to go back on our deal, are you!?"
This roar also woke up Aislynn, who was still sleeping on James' right. And James could feel the irritation she was emitting. So, instead of answering Tiamat's question, James simply looked at her with pity.
