- Warning, this is a bit more lewd than usual -
"It's been a while Yuto"
Elise shrank down to look Yuto in the eyes, which was a far cry from the 50-foot height she had been at earlier.
A Goddess in an elegant black dress and a black veil that covered her mouth.
Her black hair reached her mid-back, and her red eyes drew him in.
Yuto was speechless, this was the goddess he had heard about from many people, and she was…
"Beautiful"
Yes, Yuto was surrounded by many beautiful women that he loved, but it just boggled his mind that someone this beautiful existed.
Elise noticing his odd reaction couldn't help but chuckle, "What? Cat got your tongue?"
She poked Yuto's nose with her slender finger.
"U-um"
"You seem a little flustered," Elise continued to tease Yuto by poking his nose repeatedly.
"I-I'm sorry"
"Sorry for what?"
She tilted her head slightly with a raised eyebrow, and a smirk, wondering what Yuto was apologizing for.
"Well it's my first time in front of a goddess"
"Oh that"
She chuckled again and stopped poking his nose, resting her hand on her hip now.
"You have no reason to be sorry, it's a perfectly normal reaction, and quite cute too..."
["Jeez she reminds me of Mizuki"]
"Quite frankly you're cuter than I imagined"
She tilted her head in the opposite direction, looking him up and down.
"I-is that so?"
"Mhm. You fit the description of my type perfectly"
She smirked and took a few steps closer until she was almost pressed up against him.
'He's so nervous it's adorable'
She used one hand to caress his cheek while the other wrapped around his waist and pulled him closer.
"Ah"
"You know"
Elise leaned in and whispered into his ear, "Being too nervous can be dangerous"
Elise nipped and licked the tip of his ear just to tease him.
"Is this... really... what a goddess... does?"
"Oh? You want to know what else a goddess does?"
Elise asked teasingly as her arms wrapped firmly around his waist, pulling him against her and leaving no room between their bodies.
"I mean it's the first time we met"
While their bodies were still pressed together, Elise gently moved her hand from his waist up behind his neck and tugged him down so her lips were next to his ear once again.
"And I'm sure I'm making a 'very' good impression on you, right?"
She blew gently on his ear, her warm breath tickling him.
"But it's not the first time we met"
"What?" Yuto was confused, this was the first time they met, right?
"Have you forgotten about the past?"
She pulled back and looked him in the eye, her face suddenly quite serious.
"Um, Goddess, what are you talking about?"
"Oh yes, I forgot. You lost your memories"
She smiled a little sadly and gently placed her hand against his chest.
"In your previous life, you and I fought together in the old war. We were very... close"
Yuto's face darkened, "Wait..."
"Is this starting to come back to you?"
Elise took one of his hands and placed it on her cheek with a smile.
"You remember me, don't you?"
"S-stop talking"
"What?"
Elise's smile faded and she looked at him, surprised by his response.
"Why? Is something wrong?"
Yuto raised his hand, "Don't I need to collect the fragments to learn the truth?"
Elise's expression changed to a more serious one, and she sighed.
"So, you have no memory of anything from your past life, do you?"
He shook his head slowly, she sighed as she grasped both of his wrists and pulled his hands down to his sides.
"Yes, you need to collect the fragments to understand the truth, but you're not going to be happy about what you discover..."
She wrapped her arms tightly around his waist again and held him close.
"It's a lot to take in, I know..."
Elise rested her head against his chest and inhaled the scent of him.
"Seeing you like this... I can't help but feel sorry for you"
"Um, Goddess"
"Hmmm?"
Elise pulled back just enough to tilt her head up to look at him.
"It's Elise for you"
"Goddess?"
"No more "goddess" business"
She put a finger to his lips to shush him, "Just call me by my name from now on, okay?"
"O-okay, Elise, what did you mean when you said we were close?"
"Mmm..."
Elise hummed thoughtfully for a moment, not sure if he was ready to know the answer to that question yet…
But then again, he would have to know eventually.
"I meant that you and I... We were lovers"
Yuto stepped back, "W-what about Mizuki?"
Elise chuckled, "Is that concern I hear in your voice? Worried about her, I see?"
She took a step closer to him, her expression still a bit serious.
"You and I were in a relationship long before you met her"
"B-but she was your ego sword, and is currently my partner"
Elise took another step closer and placed a hand on his cheek.
"Your memories are all mixed up. But don't worry, it'll all make sense soon, and besides I know you have more lovers back home"
Yuto looked shaken, "H-how do you know?"
"I'm a goddess, don't you forget that"
She traced her fingertips along his jawline, and her eyes flicked down to his lips.
"I have my ways of knowing things"
Yuto sighed, shaking his head, "This is doing nothing but hurting my head"
A small chuckle escaped her lips, "Trust me, it's not going to get any easier"
She sighed and leaned in closer, her lips hovering just above his own.
"You don't even remember how we ended, do you?"
"I don't even remember you at all"
Elise let out a sound that was somewhere between a scoff and a chuckle, her breath ghosted over his face.
It was clear that Yuto's one sentence hurt her deeply.
"You really have forgotten everything, haven't you?"
She placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed him backward until his back hit the wall, and she pressed against him.
"Of course, we both knew it was going to be like this but it still hurts to see and hear"
"Huh?"
"You should see the look on your face right now"
Elise smirked and leaned forward, her face just inches from his.
"If you had your memories, there's no way you could resist me looking so helpless and attractive like this"
Yuto looked away blushing, "I'm still confused"
"Mmm... I can see that"
She chuckled a little and grabbed his chin, forcing his face back so he was looking at her once more.
"You're so cute when you're confused like this"
Yuto gently grabbed her hand, "W-what can you tell me about the past"
She went quiet for a moment, her smirk fading as she looked into his eyes, and studied his face for a moment as if deciding how to answer.
"It's not going to be easy to hear, you know"
Yuto sighed, shaking his head, "I know, I'll collect the rest of the fragments, please, just... what can you tell me?"
Elise sighed and nodded in resignation, her expression becoming somber.
"Very well, I will tell you as much as I can, but you must promise me something, Yuto"
"What is it?"
"Promise me that you won't blame yourself for what happened in the past"
"The things you will learn could make you feel guilty, and I don't want you hurting yourself any more than you already are"
Yuto chuckled, "You really are a goddess, I'm guessing you've seen my times of weakness, huh?"
"I've always seen everything"
Elise's face became more sorrowful, her voice a whisper.
"I've seen your pain, your loneliness, your grief, all the times you blame yourself and thought about giving up... "
"But Mizuki was always by my side, you probably wanted to do the same, right Elise?"
"You have no idea how badly I wanted to be by your side, instead of watching from afar"
Elise moved her hands to his chest and clutched his shirt, her voice strained.
"I wanted nothing more than to be the one you confided in, the one you turned to for comfort and reassurance... "
"..."
"Every time I saw you in pain, or at a loss for what to do, I wanted to just... grab you and hold you and never let you go... but I couldn't"
Her grip on his suit tightened, her knuckles white from how hard she was clenching her fists.
"I was forced to watch, helpless, as you suffered without me by your side..."
"..."
"Now I'm even more curious about what we were in the past"
"You say that now, but when you know... you might wish you didn't"
Elise's voice dropped to a whisper, the sorrow in her tone was palpable.
"But there's no going back now, you've already had a taste, and you won't be able to let it go until you know the entire truth"
"... Okay, I promise I won't blame myself"
"Good"
Elise let out a shaky breath and released her grip on his shirt, her hands falling to her sides.
"Just... promise me one more thing"
"Yes?"
"Promise me that you won't shut me out, okay?"
"Once you hear the truth, you're going to have questions, so many questions and nobody else will be able to give you the answers you seek"
Elise reached out and took his hand in both of hers, her voice becoming slightly desperate.
"Please... at least promise me that much..."
Yuto bit his lip, seeing a goddess have such an expression… scared him a bit.
"I promise"
"Good"
Elise squeezed his hand, holding it tightly, "Now, are you ready to know the truth about your past?"
Yuto nodded his head.
"Very well then..."
She gently pulled him to the side, off the wall, and led him to a large couch, where she tugged him down until he was sitting beside her.
"You should probably get comfortable, this will take a while..."
"Before I start, I need to ask you something, do you know anything about the war from 3,000 years ago, any of the details?"
Elise wrapped an arm around his shoulders and pulled him closer to her, making him lean against her.
Yuto blushed as he tried sitting up, "Only that many fought by your side against the Demon Lord"
"Mmm..."
She nodded, pulled him back down forcibly, making him lean against her side, and wrapped her arms around his waist.
"Yes, the humans, elves, dwarves, and many other tribes fought by my side against the Demon Lord"
"He threatened to wipe out the entire world... and you were among those who fought"
Yuto was shocked to hear this, "How is that possible, I wasn't even alive back then?"
"Perhaps not physically"
She tightened her arms around his waist and looked at him solemnly, "But your soul has been around for far longer than you could imagine"
Yuto was surprised, confused, and excited?
"Wh-what do you mean?"
"The soul is not bound to one single lifetime," she explained, her tone surprisingly calm and quiet.
"Each life a soul lives leads to yet another, and so on and so on, eventually the soul will find a new life..."
Elise pulled him even closer, hugging him tightly to her chest, "Until that life ends, and the cycle repeats, but you are different"
"Normally, the soul can forget the life it lived, to make a clean slate for its next lifetime, blissfully ignorant of the past"
She reached up with one hand and ran her fingers through his hair gently, and her next words were as quiet as a whisper.
"But your soul has not been allowed to forget"
Yuto wasn't even paying attention as all he could focus on was her lips, she had removed her veil and all he could do was stare at such perfect lips.
"Yeah?"
She chuckled, loving his dazed response, noticing how he was staring at her lips.
"You're even more hopelessly in love with me than you were back then"
Elise raised a hand and cupped his chin gently, tilting his head up so their eyes met.
"Some part of me wants to remember"
"Is that so?" She tilted her head a little to the side as she studied his face, her lips curved into a slight smirk.
"Or are you just enjoying the attention of a beautiful woman too much?"
"Well, you're also a goddess," Yuto said with a chuckle, she was so close to him, and all he could feel was her sweet breath on his neck.
"A very sexy one, too"
Elise purred, her smirk widening as she wrapped her legs over his lap and straddled him, effectively pinning him against the couch.
Yuto's face was red, "Can't disagree with that"
"What's wrong? You've been with other women so why are you not taking action like you did with the rest?"
"W-well as I've said, you are a goddess"
"That shouldn't stop you though"
Elise leaned in close and whispered into his ear, her warm breath tickled him, and her lips grazed against his skin.
"Don't you want to touch me like you used to? Caress my body with your hands? Claim me as your own again?"
"..."
Yuto turned his head to the side, clearly embarrassed, "I-i do… I really do"
"Then why are you holding back so much?"
She pulled back slightly and looked down at him, her eyes narrowed knowingly.
"You may not remember it, but your body remembers me, doesn't it? Just the proximity of my body is exciting you already, isn't it?"
She chuckled as she felt him squirm a bit under her, "You're so easy to rile up, just as I remember you…"
She leaned down and placed her hands against his chest, looking down at him with a smirk.
"So, why resist what you subconsciously want so badly?"
"B-because I came here to learn the truth and not to indulge in my lust"
"Mmm... Very noble of you, but let me ask you this, why not do both?"
Elise moved to his ear, pressed a kiss to the tip, and licked it gently.
"You're already in such a compromising position, at my mercy, all to learn the truth, so why not let your body enjoy it as well?"
It was useless fighting back, he reached for her hips and slowly pulled her down, "I want some truth after this"
Elise chuckled lowly as she could see him giving in, "Of course, I'll tell you whatever you want"
She ground herself down to meet his own hips' movements, and she leaned forward to whisper in his ear again.
"But I get to make the first move, understand?"
Elise wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face into the crook of his shoulder, and her next words came out a low, sultry whisper.
"I know your body better than yourself, I would be able to bring you such incredible pleasure, just like I did before..."
"So relax, and let me take control... "
Elise's mouth left a trail of kisses over his neck and along his jawline, all the while her hands came up to unbutton his shirt.
A soft moan escaped his lips as her lips trailed down his neck, sending shivers coursing through his veins.
His hands instinctively reached for her, craving more, this was somehow different, almost bordering on addiction.
"Ah, wow" he whispered, his voice husky.
Elise's fingers danced across his chest and with a gentle tug, she guided her mouth back to his, capturing his lips in a heated kiss.
Their tongues entwined, and he smelled such a sweet aroma coming from her, which left him breathless and wanting more.
["... Focus Yuto… don't … forget…"]
His hands roamed her curves, memorizing every inch of her goddess-like body.
["It's hard to resist"]
Breaking the kiss, Elise gazed up at him with smoldering red eyes, a sultry smile playing on her full, rosy lips.
She leaned in close, her warm breath caressing his ear as she whispered, "I'm going to make you scream my name until it's etched into your very soul so that you will never forget it again"
With that promise, her fingers made quick work of his remaining attire, ripping off any remaining clothes he had left.
"Um…"
"When we finish, I'll make your clothes again, okay?"
Yuto nodded slowly as her hands traced the contours of his chest, she nipped playfully at his lower lip, her teeth grazing the sensitive skin before soothing the sting with her tongue.
The dual sensations sent a jolt of electricity straight to his loins, and he could feel his member twitch in response.
["Note to self, I shouldn't tease Freya and Kana as much from now on"]
With a wicked glint in her eye, she slid down his body, pressing against his now-exposed thighs.
"Glad this part of you still remembers me," she purred, her voice dripping with lust.
"Now, let me taste the rest of you…"
With a fluid motion, she wrapped her hand around the rigid length of his erection, giving it a firm squeeze.
"Uugh"
Elise stroked him slowly, teasingly, coaxing pre-cum to seep from the tip.
Her lips finally made contact with his throbbing member.
Her tongue darted out, lapping at the salty drop, then delved deeper, swirling around the sensitive head.
Yuto's hips jerked involuntarily, seeking more of her mouth's warm embrace.
["HOLY SH-"]
Elise liked how he reacted and took him deeper, her lips gliding along his shaft as she sucked, her cheeks hollowing with each enthusiastic pull.
Her free hand massaged his balls, rolling them in her palm as she brought him closer to the edge.
Every stroke, every lick, every suck seemed designed to push him over that precipice into mind-numbing ecstasy.
Yuto's eyes rolled back, a string of incoherent moans tumbling from his lips as Elise worked her magic, her devotion to his pleasure palpable in every move.
She could sense the moment of his climax, her arousal spiking in response, eager to experience the rush of shared release together.
As Yuto's tension reached a fever pitch, Elise doubled her efforts, her mouth a blur of motion as she bobbed up and down his length.
Her fingers dug into his thighs, urging him to thrust, to lose himself in the slick heat of her mouth.
She could feel the pulsing of his veins, the very essence of his being focused solely on the pleasure she provided.
With a final, deep suck, she pushed him over the edge, milking his climax as he spurted hot, thick ropes of cum down her throat.
She swallowed everything, her own orgasm overlapping with his.
As the final tremors subsided, Elise released him with a soft pop, her lips glistening with their combined juices.
She looked up at him, her eyes shining with satisfaction, "This takes me back to when we first met" she chuckled, nuzzling his still-throbbing member affectionately.
Her lips trailed up his body, leaving a trail of tender kisses and soft bites in their wake.
She paused to lavish attention on his nipples, swirling her tongue around the sensitive buds before grazing them with her teeth.
Yuto on the other hand couldn't even react as he lay on the couch, breathless and confused, it was far from his first time and yet he couldn't even react.
It felt as if a carriage had hit him at full speed, leaving him to wonder if there was more to life than just fighting.
Elise though wasn't giving him any time to react as with a subtle shift in position, she settled between his thighs, her hips pressed snugly against his.
She rocked gently, stoking the embers of his desire once more.
Yuto now out of his shock looked up, "E-elise, you can't possibly want more?"
Elise gave him a smug grin, "Not fair if you get all the pleasure, it's time for the main event"
With a seductive sway of her hips, she grinded against Yuto's length.
Her breath quickened, her gaze locked onto Yuto's as she slowly, deliberately, descended upon him, her pussy mere inches from his straining erection.
"Are you ready, my love?" she purred, her voice a sultry mess, different from when he first met her.
Yuto slowly nodded, giving her the go, and with that, she engulfed his member in a warm embrace.
"Mmm… yes… I've wanted this for so long, and you're finally mine again"
Elise's words were barely above a whisper, her tone slightly desperate.
She held onto his shoulders tightly as she began to move, her body rocking against his, the friction eliciting a low moan from her.
Yuto couldn't say much, his hands found their way to her hips, pulling her down harder against him.
Her breath hitched as they rocked together, the heat between them building to an almost unbearable level.
"You feel so good… so right…"
She pressed her chest against his, wanting every inch of her skin to be in contact with him, her heart racing in her chest.
Elise planted kisses along his jaw, her words coming out between breaths as she spoke.
"I've missed this so much… missed you…"
"..."
Yuto wrapped his arms around her tightly, holding her closer as his hands roamed her curves, his touches a mix of gentleness and urgent need.
He leaned up, capturing her lips in a kiss before breaking it briefly to whisper between gasps.
"No talking, at least not now"
Elise chuckled breathlessly at his demand, the sound a sultry purr, "You always did… like me speechless, huh?"
She shook her hips at an even faster pace, leaving them both speechless as they continued having sex for an hour.
After they finished, Elise replaced his clothes as promised, they sat on the couch and got dressed quickly.
"So… did you enjoy yourself?"
Elise asked, a soft smile on her lips as she leaned against his side, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Is that a fair thing to ask?" Yuto replied with a cocky grin.
"What? Can't a goddess ask a simple question?"
She raised an eyebrow at his cocky grin, feigning annoyance, but her eyes sparkled with mischief.
Yuto chuckled and wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him.
"Fine, if you must know, yes I did enjoy myself, and a certain goddess was the main reason for that"
"I'll take that as a compliment," she snuggled closer to his side, her arm wrapping around his torso.
"Though I wouldn't mind some more praise, I'm a very selfish goddess, after all"
Yuto looked at the strange box before him, "Now that we got this settled, please keep your promise, show me who I was in the past"
Elise's playful demeanor melted away at the topic shift, and she sat up to face him directly, her red eyes meeting his gaze.
"I did promise, didn't I?"
She took a deep breath and with a snap of her fingers, the tv turned on, "Okay, you sure you want this?"
Yuto nodded his head, this was the closest he had gotten to understanding the reason behind his class and title.
Elise sighed as a wave of her hand started to play an old film.
It showed a battle from 3,000 years ago, warriors were fighting against giant titans, and the battlefield was littered with the dead.
The film would then cut to a warrior standing over the corpses of the Titans.
Their armor was black and tattered, and they had a sword in their right hand and a shield in their left.
As they removed their helmet to finally breathe, Yuto noticed they had silver hair and red horns.
"What's up with the horns?"
Elise's gaze didn't waver from the television as she responded, her voice tinged with sadness.
"He was a cambion, a hybrid demon, and human, an anomaly in the eyes of the gods…"
"His existence was like a curse"
Yuto let out a low sigh, "How so?"
"His mother, who gave him life, was the demon queen… his father, was a regular farmer"
She looked at him out of the corner of her eye, judging his reaction.
"Despite being mixed blood, he was one of the most exceptional warriors humanity had ever known"
"He was also my lover"
Yuto's head turned quickly, "Wait... the first hero... this cambion... are the same right?"
"Elise... was this..."
"Yes..."
Elise was silent for a moment, her eyes on the screen, a mixture of past memories and emotions swirling within her.
"That was you... in your 'first' life"
Yuto was shocked and confused, he began questioning his existence, regardless Elise continued talking.
"You were once known as the Hero of Humanity or the Hero of Light"
She reached up and touched his face gently, her fingers tracing along his jawline.
"You stood on the frontlines alone, fighting against the Titans and preventing the world from being overrun…"
Yuto looked at his status window, "M-my title, y-youngest demon prince"
Her eyes flickered to his status menu, and she chuckled softly.
"Yes, you had many titles, but 'Youngest Demon Prince' was the one you preferred over Hero of Humanity or Hero of Light... mainly because it annoyed me to no end"
"My C-class is the prince of darkness, what does that mean?"
She looked at the class for a moment, remembering the past.
"Your class is based on your demonic lineage, your mother's side to be exact... 'Prince of Darkness' is a class only a Cambion can obtain"
Yuto turned back to the screen and noticed that it ended with him looking at the past Elise, he noticed that she was holding a very familiar sword.
"Is that… Mizuki?"
Elise turned back to the screen, "Mhmm..."
A sad smile spread across her face, and she nodded her head, her eyes fixed on the image of her past self.
"That sword was a gift from me, a parting gift... I gave it to you because I wanted to keep a part of myself with you... as insurance that you would come back to me"
"Then why did we shatter her into 15 pieces?"
Her expression darkened, and her eyes took on a pained look, "For a very good reason... and a shitty one at that... "
She leaned back on the couch, staring up at the ceiling as she took a deep breath, "This is where things get a little complicated and extremely messed up…"
"Sadly, until you find more fragments, I can't tell you more, that's the rules even I have to follow"
"Elise!"
"You'll find out more later, you have to trust me"
Elise said quickly, she could see that Yuto was on the verge of getting impatient and angry, but she couldn't blame him in a way, the past her was also the same.
"I know you want answers, but you'll find them, I promise"
She reached out and placed her hand on top of his, gently squeezing his hand.
"For now, just be patient… please, I'll tell you everything you want to know when I can, and not a moment sooner…"
She knew he wouldn't like this, and his emotions would likely make him say some things he'd regret, but she had to be firm on this decision.
The golden light that brought Yuto to her domain was starting to activate.
"I'll see you next time, Yuto"
Her grip on his hand tightened a fraction, a part of her reluctant for him to leave so soon, but the other part of her knowing it was for the best, for now.
"W-wait no… Elise!"
"Till we meet again... My Demon Prince"
The golden light surrounded him, and before Yuto could respond, he was teleported back to his home.
Elise was left standing alone in her domain, a mix of complicated emotions stirring within her.
After a moment to recollect herself, she sighed and ran a hand through her hair, looking out across her domain of stars.
"He's going to be a headache, just like the first time"
"The same anger, the same impatience, and the same love…"
She smiled softly at her own words, the sight of Yuto sparking a sense of nostalgia deep within her.
"And yet… so different…"
