“How can this happen without me knowing about it? Does each succubus choose her own master or is there some other requirement that you haven’t told me about?” Zach asked in panic as his facial features twitched in helplessness.

“You remember the pattern that appeared on my abdomen when we slept together? That pattern is the proof of my awakening and the bond that ties me to you. We call it ‘awakening’. In this life, I can only follow after you. There will only be Master and no one else for me. You see, due to the awakening I can never have sex with anyone other than you ‘Master’. No other man will ever be able to touch me again from this moment onwards even if it is against my intentions; even if I have to die of hunger in case you choose not to accept me.” Luna looked at Zach with a gaze filled with love and adoration even though her life was practically in his hands. Her eyes reflected her trust and affection and Zach wondered if he could ever find humans capable of such pure and unconditional love.

“Shouldn’t you hate me for that? I took away your freedom, your future, all the possibilities and the turns your life could have taken. Now you are forced to look at me with those eyes, forced to call me ‘Master’.” prodded Zach in order to uncover her true thoughts behind the loving girl pretense. He could not accept that she was willing to call him Master when any respectable individual would disdain to do so.

“Why would I hate you? I can’t stop loving you enough ‘Master’. Do you even know how hard it is for a succubus to find her fated master? It is rarer than you think. Most of us burn through our entire lives waiting for such an encounter. And the freedom you are talking about is nothing less than a prison to me; every second of it is a hellish torture that I have escaped from, all thanks to you. I call you ‘Master’ not because I am being forced by the bond between us or out of some obligation but of my own free will. The affection I have for ‘Master’ is real and not fabricated based on some orthodox beliefs. So please don’t reject me.” asked Luna gently; her voice full of the same affection and her eyes displaying the same level of trust that Zach had noticed earlier.

[A quest has been added to the list of Daily Quests available. The information can be accessed in the quest screen.]

Zach was distracted by the sudden system notification that blocked his vision. To Luna it appeared as if Zach had gotten lost in thought. She prayed inwardly that Zach would accept her and the way her nails were digging into her palm showed how much she was panicking.

Zach tried to close the notification in order to view it later but the window refused to go away as if the system had hung up from all the information that it had been processing.

But then Zach figure out that the system wanted him to open the quest screen so he gave in and complied to its demands.

The new Daily Quest highlighted by the system was emboldened in the quest list. Zach clicked on it in order to view the quest description.

[New Daily Quest]

[Feed That Succubus]

[Quest Description: By achieving maximum affinity with ‘Luna’, you have become the exclusive master of the Fiery Succubus. No other man will be able to touch her except you. Since the succubus has given herself to you, it is only right that you feed her appropriately for her loyalty to you. Moreover, the leftover potential inside of her will benefit you as well. Harness the power left inside her and absorb more of it through sex. The energy will not only help you increase your power but will also replenish your semen so you can repeat the quest again without suffering any of the consequences of engaging in carnal activities with a succubus.]

[Quest Clear Conditions: Have sex with Luna and absorb the leftover energy inside her.]

[Quest Time Limit: This quest can be repeated and will remain available in the Daily Quest screen. However, the rewards for the quest can only be claimed every 24 hours.]

[Quest Rewards: Affinity with Luna will increase slightly. If the affinity is already at maximum, chances of receiving a hidden reward increase with each completion of the quest.]

[Accept Daily Quest: Y/N]

Zach remained in a daze for a long time; every second of which was a torture for Luna who was waiting for him to reply to her earlier request. She only wanted him to keep her by his side but Zach’s lost look devastated her heart from the inside.

Unaware of the storm raging inside Luna, Zach carefully re-read the contents of the daily quest to make sure that he had seen it right.

“So the useless hidden reward of the system wasn’t useless after all. I was wondering why the hidden reward for the quest was so lousy. It turned out that maximum affinity with Luna was the pre-requisite for this awakening that she keeps talking about.” the puzzle pieces all fell in place and Zach figured out all the answers to his questions.

Zach was having difficulty adapting to the new reality that Luna had become his slave; a sex slave at that with no ability to reject his advances.

Even if it was an isekai, Zach’s moral compass was still calibrated to the standards of his previous world. He was uncomfortable with the fact that he had unknowingly and unwillingly enslaved Luna and had restricted her will which was nothing if not inhumane and evil.

With a helpless look on his face, Zach peered down at the kneeling Luna who had a pleading look on her face. Zach couldn’t help but pity her and at the same time cursed himself for not picking her up sooner thinking her knees might be hurting.

Luna watched him get down on his knees in front of her and her eyes met his deep ones. She got flustered as she tried to stop him but his eyes forced her to stay at her place as if ordering her to stay put. 𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

“I don’t know how this happened but I can’t help but feel guilty about this outcome. Your beliefs are very different from what I have considered normal my whole life. Even if I want to be comfortable with this change, it will be very difficult for me to accept it.”

Luna felt as if all her hopes had come crashing down on top of her crushing her underneath their weight. A giant foot seemed to be pressing her chest as she was having difficulty breathing as if oxygen in the air refused to heed her desperate calls. Her blood ran in reverse breaking her from the inside out on a cellular level. Her reality had collapsed in on itself with the words that came out of Zach’s mouth.

She prayed with all her heart to any god who might be out there. “Please don’t let him throw me aside. Please…please…please…”

Zach watched the color drain from her face and he immediately followed up with his words to calm her oozing insecurity.

“It’s not what you are thinking. I am not going to abandon you.” Zach coaxed her while his hand caressed her hair gently.

“I am the reason that this has happened to you. So, I will take responsibility for you. I promise you, I will not force you to do things that you don’t want to do. So don’t be afraid, all right? I will take care of you from here on out.”

“Hmm” Luna barely produced a sound that he could hear. She was too overwhelmed by emotions and needed some time to calm down. But the force with which she nodded conveyed her happiness to Zach who finally felt some relief.

Zach pulled her in towards him and laid her against his chest. Luna found solace in his powerful embrace and barely stopped herself from crying. She somehow managed to keep herself from wailing loudly but couldn’t stop the tears from escaping past the corner of her eyes. The glistening tears left a trail on her beautiful and seductive face and their journey ended on his chest.
