Though Erik still held Aster in a full nelson grip and her ass was being stretched several times beyond its natural limits, it looked like her admission had pushed aside the precarious situation of her body for the moment. Even the need to cum seemed to have been put on hold.

"S-So what if he was?!" Aster panted, her voice filled with frustration. "Because he was a good man, I should have spent the rest of my life chained to him?! I want to be chained to someone who dares hold those chains!"

For a moment, her answer was interrupted when the cock in her ass twitched. "Hnngh," she moaned, her body trembling as her eyes behind the blindfold crossed for a moment.

"H-He may not have deserved to die," she continued after finding herself again, stuttering only due to the state of her body, as the ruthlessness in her voice made clear. "B-But I won’t shy away from the fact that his death made my life better!"

Erik raised an eyebrow and had to admire that point. Though Aster was clearly selfish and ruthless, he didn’t mind these things. In fact, a part of him appreciated them, especially in a woman willing to serve him.

Naturally, Naeku felt his feelings through their bond and threw him a wry glare. Still, she relaxed a little and sighed. "Well... you’ve always been a bit of a bitch, I guess... Not like I really knew Dawit, anyway..." she grumbled softly.

A victorious, smug grin quickly spread across Aster’s lips, but it quickly distorted when Erik began to move her body again. Grunting, he pulled her up and pushed her down onto his cock again. His hips barely moved, as he mainly moved Aster’s body like a fleshlight.

"Aha-ah! Haahohgodd!" she moaned, groaned, and trembled as Erik dug out her ass at an agonising pace. "P-Please! C-CanIcumnow?!"

Naeku scowled a little. Even distorted, she still recognised the smug victory on Aster’s face, and she didn’t like it. Yet, a deal was a deal. "I guess you did tell the truth, finally..." she grumbled. "You ca—"

"No," Erik growled, grinning sadistically. "You made a deal with Naeku, but it seems you both forgot who is in charge here, and I don’t recognise the deal. You need to be punished for lying to me, so you’ll keep it in if you know what’s good for you."

The smug victory immediately disappeared from Aster’s expression. "N-Nooooh!" she howled, shaking her head desperately. "I-I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Pleeeeeaase, hah hah hah, goooods!"

But there was no relief to be found. Erik’s thrusts only sped up, and her mind reeled from the need to cum. Tears of effort streamed from her face as she was forced to keep her body from giving in.

Meanwhile, he winked at a surprised Naeku. "Sorry for undermining you a little, love, but I could see you didn’t want to reward her... and neither did I," he told her through their bond.

She blinked and then slowly began to grin. Taking the crop in her hand, she turned back to Aster and clapped it in her own hand. "Oh no," she giggled, her voice dripping with glee. "Looks like Sir had other plans all along! I’m sorry, Aster, but it’s a good reminder that in the end, anything you say or do is meaningless if he doesn’t approve."

She began gently whipping Aster in several places with the crop. "Your pussy belongs to him. Your ass belongs to him. Your throat belongs to him. Your soul, heart, and mind belong to him. That’s what you want, isn’t it? To be dominated and treated like a slave?"

Naeku pressed the crop against Aster’s chin to lift her lolling head a little. "So who do your orgasms belong to?"

Unfortunately, Aster could no longer speak coherently. All that came out were grunts and moans, causing Naeku to narrow her eyes. She whipped one of Aster’s sensitive, hard nipples. "I asked you a question!"

Aster screamed, her eyes widening as a hint of clarity returned. Yet, all she could do was shake her head and cry out: "I can’t I can’t I can’t! I-I’m going to—!"

Suddenly, Nora was there. Smiling gently, she stood on her toes to reach Aster’s head and began whispering in her ear. Aster blinked in surprise... and then her face relaxed a little. "Y-Yeah..." she muttered softly, nodding as she agreed with something Nora said. At the same time, it looked like she’d pushed the orgasm a little further away again.

Erik raised an eyebrow and quickly understood what was happening. His cock twitched. Despite his reservations about Nora’s powers, there was a part of him that got excited by Nora essentially brainwashing a willing target into being his slave, as he actively fucked that target’s ass. The immorality of it was exciting, even if the willing part was still important to him.

Grinning, he decided to give Nora an easier time. He walked over to a wall and repositioned Aster’s body. By quickly creating a band of ice around her waist, he could hold her lower body up with one hand, as he wrapped the other around her neck to push her face into the wall. Nora quickly came over and now had an easier time whispering in Aster’s ear as Erik fucked her into the wall.

Slowly, a serene smile spread on Aster’s lips as Nora’s words pierced their way into her mind. With every second that passed, her need to cum diminished, and her devotion to Erik increased. Perhaps she’d not need the trials anymore... because she’d finish right here and now.

Meanwhile, Naeku came over a little hesitantly and wrapped her arms around his chest from behind him. She placed her chin on his shoulder and moved her hips in sync with his. "It’s a weird thought, knowing what’s happening to my friend right now..." she muttered softly, yet looked at the process with strange fascination.

Erik smirked and glanced at her face. "Still calling her your friend, huh?"

Naeku sighed and shrugged. "We had some good times, I guess... I hope this makes her happy, and she finds what she’s looking for..."

Anne stepped up next to them with a playful smirk. "Oh, you don’t need to worry about that. Even if she wasn’t willing, she’d be willing and overjoyed by the time it finished." Then she shrugged. "Or, that’s what it feels like, anyway. I was very willing, so maybe I’m wrong."

Naeku chuckled wryly. "I’m not sure if that makes me feel better, but thanks..."

The situation continued for a few more minutes, until Nora suddenly pulled back and looked at Aster intensely. Then, she turned to Erik with a confident smile. "I think she’s done, Master. I feel the same thing from her as I do Anne. I suggest letting her cum now, to really burn it into her mind."

By now, Aster’s body had gone fully slack, a serene smile across her face. Behind the blindfold, her eyes were glassy and calm.

But... three words from Erik destroyed the peace and calm she felt at that moment.

"Cum for me."
