Chereads / Descent Of The Condemned / Chapter 138 - Progress

Chapter 138 - Progress

Ramiel sat on the most comfortable throne in the world that could exist...

...

...

...

Of course, this is sarcasm. Let's be realistic, it will be a long time before a man gets a comfortable thing to sit on. And until then ... I'm left to suffer in solitude ...

Khm... going back.

Ramiel tried to focus on the flashing status window, but a certain demoness persistently demanded a daily and necessary dose of attentiveness for existence.

Asme was persistent in her actions. She tried to get Ramiel's attention by every means known to her, within reason, of course.

Her right hand sank into the man's long hair, caressing it. The seductive creature's left hand didn't lag behind. Slender fingertips rode along well-defined muscles.

A pleasant shiver passed through Asme.

The horned beauty felt as if she were touching a Greek marble sculpture. The proportions of Ramiel's body, were perfectly maintained, highlighting an athletic physique designed to push the limits of sanity.

Asme found herself in seventh heaven. The naughty devil could lie idly for hours and gloat at the sight of one of the wonders of the world. Lately, this had become her favorite pastime.

The woman's long and alluring legs dangled freely from the edge of the throne, fluttering happily at the same time. The only thing she lacked was a little attention from the man on whose lap she sat.

Between lines of clumped text, Ramiel noticed a sudden movement in her field of vision. Guided by intuition, amethyst eyes followed the sudden movement of the horned beauty's limbs.

At the end of the day, Ramiel was a healthy man in the prime of life. He couldn't withstand "an innocent tease" indefinitely. "

" Asme ... I'm trying to focus ... "

" And I'm trying to spend some time with you... after all, I'm not doing anything like that~ ".

Ramiel let the air out of his mouth faster. Even a child could sense the deception lurking in the air...

" Don't make such a face, darling. Sitting innocently on your lap, is that such a sin? "

" ... "

Asme moved closer to Ramiel's face. She could feel his hot breath, brushing against her delicate skin. It put her heart in real trouble. A little more, and it would jump out of her chest.

" Unless ... our little boy has naughty and dirty thoughts ... ~ "

Asme whispered, letting the man's fantasy run wild at will.

Apparently, the best defense is offense. At least that's what Asme remembered from their training together.

Ramiel looked into the blood-red eyes of the horned beauty. Between the waves of the scarlet sea, he saw deep-seated fear, hidden behind a veil of sudden joy.

Indirectly, he was to blame for this state of affairs... well, directly...

Asme had barely come to terms with the grim past, when she was suddenly knocked out by another blow in the form of Ramiel's untimely death.

The woman took the news of her lover's death badly. Maybe outwardly she looked as if it didn't affect her too much, but inwardly she was still a mess.

She blamed herself, for the premature departure of the man... Even after his return, she couldn't find peace.

Every evening she was plagued by recurring nightmares. This time, instead of an unpleasant past, she was haunted by the sight of Ramiel dead and twisted at an unnatural angle, trapped in an ice cube.

 

" Something happened honey ~? "

Ramiel's implacable stare overwhelmed Asme. One might even go so far as to say that the woman was intimidated to some degree by his presence.

" Why don't you say anything ... Could it be that my beauty has robbed you of your voice? " 

Ramiel's silence was even worse than his mean but extremely accurate remarks.

Asme felt her throat getting dry. Suddenly, her accumulated confidence and bravado burst like a soap bubble.

" Ramiel is ... "

Suddenly, the lips of the lovers joined together in a long and tender kiss, embarrassing Asme.

Ramiel attacked like an exemplary predator as the horned beauty's defenses were put to sleep.

Asme wanted to protest, but Ramiel's rough and hot mouth made her legs go soft.

The succubus had no choice but to openly admit defeat, losing herself in the ethereal moment. 

All traces of despondency disappeared from Asme's blood-red eyes. This little fact didn't escape the man's attention.

" You see? Immediately better," he said. "

" What - what do you mean ".

Ramiel smiled in spirit. The sight of an abashed Asme was one of the rare privileges he was willing to kill for.

" You have eyes too beautiful Asme for worry to dim their luster. "

Reflexively, Asme threw a strand of silken hair behind her ear.

Acting like a shy teenage girl placates the pride of a succubus shrouded in legends... but from time to time, it doesn't hurt to give in and go with the flow. After all, you only live once.

" I don't know what's in that horned head of yours, but stop thinking about it. The past belongs to the past and will forever remain so. We can't let our mistakes define the future. "

Like a frightened little girl, Asme croaked subtly. Her head rested on the man's well-built muscular frame.

It would still be a long time before the naughty succubus realized that the fault wasn't hers, but everything must be reached by small steps.

" I won't bother you if ... you know ... I stay like this? "

Ramiel stroked Asme's head, avoiding contact with the horns at all costs. If he touched one of them, the chances of any collateral work would be around zero percent.

" Mhm... but in return I want to hear your voice. "

Ramiel was ashamed to admit it, but he had become addicted to the heavenly timbre of Asme's voice. Especially, from her beautiful songs.

When he heard them, he felt as if his soul was subtly trembling, demanding closer contact.

In its own way, it was lovely and pleasant.

" Mmm... " Asme pressed her middle finger to her pink and tiny lips. Combined with her innocent side, it made for an unearthly combination.

Ramiel swallowed his saliva. One thing he had to admit, Asme was extremely sexy, even if she wasn't trying.

" I want a reward ~ "

Ramiel wrapped tiny strands of sparse scarlet hair around his fingers and played with them.

" When I'm done, you'll get as much of my attention as you want. "

The offer was irresistible. Lately, Ramiel had little free time. Most of it, he spent on personal development, or helping the creatures living inside the Dungeon of Damnation grow stronger.

Similarly, this involved fewer night sessions, during which the pair got to know each other more closely. 

Asme could have agreed without a second thought, but she didn't.

The woman was greedy. If she got a finger, she wanted to devour the whole hand.

" Will we be alone? Just the two of us? "

" Mhm... We will be alone... Just me and you, no one else. " - Ramiel purred softly into the exposed earlobe of the horned beauty, the cause of the woman's accelerated heart rate.

" Are you sure? What about Caera... "

Ramiel immediately dispelled any doubts that plagued Asme's mind.

" Caera has already agreed... on the condition that she gets one evening with me under similar conditions. "

Asme understood the elfess perfectly. Although they were close and she loved their fun together as a threesome, and for some time as a foursome... This spending a night exclusively with Ramiel falls into a different category.

The selfish part of her personality was jumping for joy.

" And Avi? Since it's going to be just the two of us..."

Asme didn't have the slightest chance to finish.

" For the common good, Caera convinced Sarron to give her something to do... ".

Ramiel was silent for a while, trying to be honest with his feelings.

 

" I love this monster more than life, but I also need some intimacy, especially with you two... I don't think I need to finish? "

Asme hugged Ramiel tighter. The man needed no words to understand the woman's intentions. The rhythm of her heartbeat, which expressed more than a thousand words, was enough for him.

It didn't take long before Asme began humming an ear-pleasing tune.

Strangely, Ramiel was able to focus twice as fast. Apparently, the succubus song, had a greater effect on him than he thought.
