Naeku kept Aster in place for a moment longer. Every moment, she felt his cock throb through the soft skin of Aster’s throat as it pumped the contents of his balls into her stomach. Judging by the emotions spilling through her bond, Erik realised she found the feeling surprisingly exhilarating.

When he was finally done cumming, Naeku finally released Aster’s chin and hair. She immediately fell backwards, releasing Erik’s length with a plop as all strength left her body. Through omnisense, they could see the eyes behind her fold had become glassy and unfocused. Her body still trembled from the sensations inflicted upon it, and she’d not yet begun to breathe again.

They didn’t worry, though. A second-ranker with access to their runes could survive without oxygen for hours. She’d remember how to breathe soon enough.

Naeku glanced up at Erik with a mischievous smirk. She was still crouching and now crawled closer to him, completely ignoring the twitching Aster. Erik looked back at her with an expectant grin, standing straight with his hands on his hips.

Without taking her eyes off his, Naeku put her face next to his still-dripping dick. "Looks like she still needs to learn not to leave a mess behind, Sir... But we’ll rectify that, won’t we?" Leaning forward, she pressed her tongue against his tip to stem the drops of cum still leaking out. "For now, I’ll take responsibility, alright...?"

Pressing forward, she caused Erik to groan as his cock disappeared into her throat with little effort. She didn’t use her hands and kept them on the floor next to her knees. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Pfffff," he huffed as her slightly rough tongue covered every inch of him to remove the last drops. He couldn’t stop himself from entangling a hand in her soft black hair and pushing her head into his crotch. "T-That’s why you’re the wife, my love..."

She didn’t offer any resistance or protests to his hand, simply allowing him to do as he pleased. When a last, sudden spurt pumped out, he finally released her head and sighed contentedly. At that point, Naeku carefully pulled back and left nothing behind. When she reached the tip, she sucked out every remnant and finished it with a light kiss on the head.

Finally, she looked up and opened wide to show him there was nothing left, mischief glittering in her eyes as she loved seeing so much desire in his eyes. Having built up a tolerance by now, this little of his cum was just a tasty treat to her.

Closing her lips again, she smirked as she got back up on her feet. "So, I’m only your wife because I suck your cock so good?" she asked, clearly unserious. She wrapped her arms around his chest and looked up at him with a raised eyebrow.

Chuckling, Erik kissed her lips and wrapped his arm around her waist. Of course, he made sure to wipe out any remaining remnants with aetherium first. Though he wasn’t too bothered with where those lips had just been, he also didn’t need to taste himself.

Their kiss was deep and passionate, lasting for at least a minute. When they finally parted, Erik smiled at her flushed expression. "I mean, you kiss pretty good, too."

Naeku blinked, needing a moment to remember what he was talking about... then she scoffed, pouted, and punched his shoulder. "Asshole...!"

Laughing, Erik pulledcontent her against his chest. "Haha, I’m sorry, my love. I just love your pout."

Smiling lightly, Naeku leaned her forehead against his chest.

They stood there for a moment, and Erik quickly glanced at the others in the room. Nora and Anne still knelt where they were before, heads bowed, but clearly flushed and turned on. Aster had remembered to breathe and was now panting rapidly. Her body continued to tremble, but she was recovering and walking away from the edge at agonisingly slow speed.

"You really surprised me today, Naenae..." he muttered, still looking at Aster. "I mean, I know you can be a tease, but I judged you too nice for something like this. It wasn’t even that long ago when Emily tranced you because you were too nervous about joining your sisters and me for sex!"

A heavy blush immediately spread across her delicate cheeks. She buried her face deeper into his chest, suddenly a far cry from the teasing dominatrix she’d been a moment ago.

"I-I know, right...?" she muttered absentmindedly. "I-I’m not sure what came over me... I was just so annoyed with her! But I guess she did make some good points about our friendship, at least... Maybe I was frustrated at myself, too..."

"Maybe," Erik shrugged, unconcerned. In his mind, his wives could act out against other people all they wanted, so long as they followed his rules. He grinned a little. "But far more interesting than the reason you wanted to punish her is the method you chose."

"Hmpf," she grumbled, pouting again. "You’ve clearly corrupted me... A-And she annoyed me... that’s all... I’m not interested in doing that to just anyone..."

"Heh, I believe that," Erik nodded, smiling mysteriously. "You’re too nice to do it to just anyone... but I think the fact that Aster essentially asked for this played a major role. I think you like doing it, but you need clear consent. Maybe you even like the idea of punishing some of your subjects for the more idiotic choices they make. Part of you thought you did this in the hope Aster would back out, but your true hope was that she wouldn’t... right?"

Naeku opened her mouth to respond... but then didn’t. She closed it again and stared into his chest with a complicated gaze.

"Remember all those people who chose to remain in their remote villages, despite the third-ranking monsters popping up?" he whispered, smirking mischievously. "Remember all the hard work we had to do to gather them in the cities? Imagine one of them walked in here, asking you to train and punish her... would you not want to?"

Of course, he intentionally made this fictional person a woman. Even if she got more involved with this cult in the future, he’d not allow her to touch any men.

His words made Naeku’s breath speed up. "S-Shut up..." she whispered noncommittally. "You’re saying dangerous things..."

"Hehehe," Erik chuckled, choosing to stop there, knowing he’d already planted the seed.

At that point, he also glanced over at Aster and noticed she was stirring. "Looks like Aster is about to come to her senses. Are we done with her, or...?"

Glad to change the topic, Naeku glanced over her shoulder with narrowed eyes and a dangerous grin. "Well... We don’t have the truth yet, do we?"
