How I became the Empress of Hell 3.84: I’m only human

Anger poured into my veins like molten lava and forced my mind out of the dreamy fog that I had been drifting in. I felt pure unfettered rage course through my system like a wildfire, and slaking my thirst for blood and violence seed to be the other way to calm the raging inferno within . My eyes focused on the closest creature to and I let out a low growl as I saw it was a demon woman with long blonde hair and golden eyes. She looked at with confusion written on her face for only a fraction of a second before black fire surrounded her body and she threw herself at . I didn’t even have ti to react before I felt my arms being pinned down to the floor and the woman pressing her weight against . I thrashed in her grasp, but nothing I did seed to loosen her iron grip on my wrists. I could see her mouth moving as she started speaking to , but it was hard to hear anything over the sound of my heart thumping in my ears. After lifting her head backwards and then bringing it down onto my face with an explosion of pain, I stared deeply into the eyes of the woman who had struck .

Anguished fury flooded my system as I realized that I had almost attacked my beloved Gehenna and she had been forced to subdue . Why would I have done sothing so stupid?! A growl rumbled in my chest and I did my best to turn away from the concerned eyes of my demon lover, but after releasing one of my wrists she grabbed my face and forced to look up at her. Panic coursed through as I felt the urge to lash out at her with violence. What was going on?!

“Allie, look at . Focus on , my love. Don’t think about anything else, just focus on !”

I locked eyes with Gehenna and just let myself fall deep into those blazing pools of gold. I felt my body still and the overwhelming thirst for violence began to ebb away. As my breathing finally cald, I relaxed beneath my lover’s body. I felt her breasts pushing against my own and a rush of heat raced through . The only thing separating us was the single layer of tight clothing we were both wearing. I felt a gnawing hunger fill my core and stifled a moan as I realized that the position I was in was incredibly intimate and extrely submissive. I pushed my hips upwards to grind against my blonde lover and lifted my head in an effort to kiss her. Instead of pressing her lips to mine, Gehenna pulled away slightly and sighed loudly. The moan that had been bubbling up out of shifted to an irritated growl. I gave her a playful grin as I realized she was just playing hard to get, and quickly slid my free hand underneath her shirt. Before my fingertips could seek out the soft, supple flesh of her breast, Gehenna let out an exasperated sigh and pulled my hand free from the confines of her clothing.

“Allie, stop! You need to get yourself under control!”

“But… I don’t know what’s happening to , Gehenna! I feel angry, and horny, and scared, and hungry, and so many other fucking things all at once! It’s like my brain and body are on fire! What is happening?!”

A wave of terror seized at my heart as I thought about the implications of everything. Did I screw up the thing with Allexus? Did I sohow fuck up my brain? Did I–

“Allie, right now the demonic part of your brain is in control. Your emotions are heightened and volatile, and everything will feel far more intense and uncontrollable. I can help you get that control back, but I need you to focus all of your attention on and do your best to remain as calm as you can. Can you do that for , my love?”

I exhaled through my nose loudly in an effort to slow my rapid breathing and stared up at Gehenna. I focused on the features of her beautiful face and then gazed deeply into her eyes. I nodded my head slowly as I forced every part of to remain as still and calm as possible. Gehenna’s golden irises began to glow brighter as so sort of magic poured out of her and into , but I never looked away from her for a second. My racing heart slowed to a normal pace, the burning all over my skin faded, and the cacophony of ntal noise in my mind quieted. I began to take long, deep breaths and felt completely at peace and utterly calm. I smiled warmly at Gehenna as she released her tight grip on my wrists and shifted so that she was now laying beside on the floor. I moved my head so that I was facing her, and leaned in close to kiss her. She didn’t pull away this ti, and I sighed contentedly as her lips t mine. I savored the sweet passion of my demon wife for a mont before moving away slightly.

“Thank you, Gehenna. That was… that was fucking intense. Is that… is that how you feel all the ti?”

She smiled at and shook her head gently.

“No. Well… not anymore. I definitely did when I first beca a demon, but I’ve had many, many years of practice learning to get my emotions under control. But… enough about . It is obvious so sort of change happened within you, as the connection I have to you with my [Souls of the Damned] has strengthened significantly, but I’m still unsure about what exactly happened.”

My cheeks flushed for a mont as I thought back to the events that took place inside of the dream realm, and I bit my lip as I considered the best way to explain everything. Before I could say anything, however, Gehenna laughed softly and gave a knowing grin.

“You need not feel embarrassed about anything, my love. Nothing you tell will ever make think less of you.”

After telling her about the brief argunt and the revelations regarding Allexus's origin, Gehenna was able to coax into telling her all the horny details of my “self-love” session. As I regaled her with the highlights of the mind-blowing sex with myself, I ca to the not-so-shocking realization that I was able to recall the events from both my and Allexus's perspective. This discovery allowed to search my mories for other things I could suddenly “rember” and I was able to recall with fairly accurate details of all the tis Allexus had taken over. There were also quite a few mories that seed to fade into shadow as I thought about them, and I guessed it was likely the ones with llic that most definitely triggered the N-Vision safety features. While it was frustrating to have strange gaps in my mory, I was thankful that I wasn't being subjected to the trauma that would have occurred from my ti with my forr demon master.

One of the stranger discoveries we made was finding out that I had a new form I could transform into. In addition to being able to take the guise of a Demonspawn, my Avatar of Corruption form, and my “true” form, I now had the ability to turn into my human form. Upon shifting into what was essentially my real body, I discovered that all my abilities, spells, and various demonic traits were completely inaccessible. I was, for lack of a better term, completely human. While I was no stranger to not having demonic superpowers or magic in my real life, it was sothing entirely unique in the ga. For the first ti since acquiring my demon body, I truly felt weak. Gehenna excitedly picking up and moving around so effortlessly certainly didn't help matters, but it definitely gave a unique perspective into how others likely perceived in my true form. After womanhandling in ways that most definitely made my thoughts drift towards the bedroom, Gehenna reluctantly excused herself to go deal with so problem that had arisen, with the promise of enjoying my human body thoroughly upon her return.

Walking around the castle in my human form was a strange experience. I felt vulnerable whenever soone approached , and even being around the low-leveled recruits who had recently joined the clan still made feel pathetic in comparison. Oddly enough, It did allow to connect with them in a way I likely wouldn't have been able to do in my true form. Since I no longer gave off the waves of power that always seed to radiate from my true form, the newest mbers of our clan felt far less intimidated by and seed to view as just another gar enjoying a badass video ga.

After finding and dragging back to our shared bedroom, Nialla spent the next couple of hours enjoying the extre shift in our power dynamic. I could tell she was hesitant at first to take a more dominant role, but after so gentle prodding she quickly got the hang of it. After thoroughly exhausting far, far too quickly, I figured it was ti to change back to my demon form. Doing so, it turns out, ended up being a whole ordeal.

As my body shifted and reford, my senses were instantly bombarded and quickly overloaded as the enhancents to each of them took effect. I clapped my hands on my ears in an effort to block out the cacophony of noise that was suddenly assaulting , while doing my best to ignore the rush of tactile sensation I was experiencing from head to toe. I recoiled sharply as Nialla's arms wrapped around in an effort to help, but forced my overstimulated body to relax as much as I could. After an indeterminate length of ti spent in total sensory overload, I felt my mind and body adapting to my altered and enhanced physiology. Thanks to my earlier emotional freakout with Gehenna, I was prepared for the onslaught of heightened emotions and was able to remain mostly calm until I got a handle on everything. As Nialla continued to clutch in her arms protectively, I explained to her in great detail the events with Allexus, my discoveries of all the changes to my body, and what I had experienced when I shifted out of my human form. After taking a few minutes to reassert my authority over my sexy kitten, it was my turn to hold her tightly in my arms.

“So, kitten. What did you want to talk to about?”

Nialla remained silent for a mont, before pulling away slightly and turning to face .

“Is what Allexus said true? About you being upset you can't marry and looking into ceremonies and such.”

I sighed and pursed my lips slightly before nodding.

“Yes. But, before I elaborate on that… I should make sothing very clear. I am Allexus. I'm also Allie. What happened in that dream realm sort of… rged both of us. So everything that Allexus did and said, I rember all of it completely as if it was . I know how badly I hurt you, Noelle. I still feel the overwhelming guilt and remorse for saying what I did. But what I said about marrying you, and finding so sort of ceremony, that was absolutely true. I hate that society still hasn’t evolved enough to better understand how love works and that monogamy isn't the only choice. I'm not going to stand on a soap box and go into the political aspects of it, but I will say that I will be doing everything I can to find a way to make what you, Emily, and I have as official as possible… that is… if that's sothing you want, of course. As I'm saying this I'm now realizing that I never asked you if that's what you want and now I'm rambling and anyti you wanna jum–”

Nialla giggled before cutting off with a passionate kiss. After a mont she pulled away, leaving breathless and hungry for much, much more.

“Both you and Em have to ask properly when I et you guys in person. Spoiler alert, the answer is going to be a resounding yes, but you both still need to do it right. And you don't have to tell her… she and I already talked about this while you were banging the shit out of yourself for twelve fucking hours. I know you're a bit self-absorbed, Allexus… but co on now… that's a bit much, even for you.”

The playful smirk on her face and the obvious laughter in her voice caused to roll my eyes and grin at her antics.

“Alright you… I think I need to remind my kitten about her proper place in my harem.”
