Dreadwolf, Lord of Runes

After Kane pulled out of the ramling, Luna looked down on the shivering, unconscious mess her master had left behind, and snorted. "Hmpf, she doesn't even have the decency to clean up her own mess."

Next to her, Kane grinned, and grabbed the catling's neck, before pulling her ear close to his mouth as he dominantly grabbed the base of her tail with his other hand.

Luna yelped, but didn't offer much resistance.

"Fortunately, I have my beautiful Valkyrie to do that for me, correct?" he whispered in her ear in a domineering tone. "You had a lot of fun with Mira, and you deserve it, but that makes it as much your mess as hers, don't you think?"

Luna shivered and grinned slightly. She enjoyed dominating another woman together with her master, but she enjoyed it just as much when he did the same to her.

Without another word, and continuing to grin, she slid down to a crouch, rubbing her soft body against his along the way. Meanwhile, Kane had released her neck, but kept holding on to her tail, causing it to slide up in his hand while Luna lowered herself, until he held the tip when the catling reached her lowest point.

Softly and submissively, the tip of her tail remained in his hand and caressed him slightly, while the young woman's tongue got to work on cleaning the various juices clinging to his cock.

Meanwhile, Kane now turned to an Aelia, who was glaring at him with annoyance. "What…?" Kane asked smugly, while shivering slightly from Luna's somewhat rough tongue.

"I'm starting to think you simply enjoy humiliating women" she snarled, while desperately trying to ignore the shivering, sleeping mess that was her friend and subordinate.

Kane closed his eyes, chuckled, and shook his head. "I wouldn't say that."

But then his eyes snapped open again. They flashed with excitement, and he grinned widely, as a thick and palpable atmosphere of obsession filled the room.

"I enjoy power, Aelia," he growled softly, yet full of determination. "Power of my own. Power over others. Any kind of power, because only that can break my chains and grant true freedom."

Aelia looked at his expression with wide eyes. Cold sweat trickled down her back as the atmosphere in the room made her forget to breath for a moment.

But then the air relaxed again. Aelia found herself panting slightly, while the tension left Kane's body, and he smiled softly. "But I'm not unreasonable. I won't sacrifice those who serve me faithfully in its pursuit. In fact, I'll pull you up with me."

He indicated towards the softly snoring Mira and continued, "Mira here is a good example. You say I humiliated her, but can you deny she not only enjoyed herself, but also grew stronger? Am I than not allowed to enjoy myself a little as well by exercising my power over her?"

Aelia's mind was a bit of a jumble. She was realizing more and more how different Kane truly was from them. While prideful, Aelia had never made herself any illusions about grandeur in her life. But her new boss did.

Whether they were illusions or predictions was unsure, but she realized she was both excited and terrified of the future.

Yet, she quickly clamped down and refocused on the moment. She refused to let herself be swept up in Kane's flow entirely. With narrowed eyes, she continued to confront him, "So what happens if when someone doesn't enjoy…" She gulped a little. "You know… that."

Kane couldn't help but wonder if she was talking about herself. Yet, either way, there was only one real answer. So, he grinned widely. "I'll let you know when I find someone who I can't persuade into choosing pleasure over a little bit of pride."

"You…!" Aelia exclaimed, but then palmed her face as she groaned, "Ugh, whatever…"

Meanwhile, Luna was done and stood up again while licking her lips mischievously and cleaning herself with some energy. "I think you'll be waiting a long time. Master can be very persuasive, you know?"

Kane grinned and kissed her lips, uncaring for where they'd just been, partly because the catling had already cleaned herself. "Right you are, my beautiful Valkyrie," he agreed, after they separated again.

As for Aelia, she'd clearly decided to leave this discussion for later. As long as he didn't force anyone, she had no leg to stand on.

Of course, there was one thing she worried about the most: now that Kane had proven his ability, she might have to eventually give in to it as well, assuming she wanted to stay at a relevant level of power in her own organization.

Thus, she asked, a little hesitantly, "But you'll still… you know… have sex and share your power with someone who didn't want to submit like that?"

"Of course," Kane immediately chuckled. "I'll spend every moment of it trying to make you, but even if you never do, I won't discriminate." But then he grinned with a hint of mocking, "But honestly, if you can't even say the words, how will you ever resist me?"

Aelia immediately blushed and grumbled when Kane made it obvious what they were talking about here, but she quickly shook her head and moved on.

"Fine, whatever," she sighed, before turning a little awkwardly towards Mira. "So uhm, what now?"

Kane smiled and shrugged while he snapped his fingers to put his clothes back on. "Now, I suggest you get some rest. I won't be needing my bed tonight, so Mira can sleep here. Tomorrow is another busy day, and I'll expect you to corroborate my claims when it comes to it."

Aelia knew he meant his ability to boost power through sex, and since she couldn't deny that after personally witnessing the boost Mira received, she could only sigh and nod.

"I will, don't worry," she agreed, before turning to the peacefully sleeping Mira again. "But I'll rest here, if you don't mind."

"Still don't trust me?" Kane asked while raising a curious eyebrow. "You know you can't be here every time I do this, right?"

Aelia snorted and grumbled, "I know… and for what it's worth, I do trust you… a little. I just want to make sure she's alright when she wakes up."

Kane smiled a little, "That's good to hear. Do as you like then."

With that said, he turned to Luna, who was still naked, and had been glaring at him for a last few moments, barely suppressing the urge to interrupt his conversation with Mira.

"Why are you dressed again?!" she complained loudly. "Don't think you're getting out of fucking me next!" she continued while pointing at him accusingly.

Kane was unsurprised and chuckled softly. Obviously, Luna wanted him to boost her cores again as well, as her desire for reaching the top of the Core Awakening stage like her master was a top priority for her right now.

He kissed her again. "Later, alright?" he promised with a slight smirk. "I don't want you to grow much more powerful before tomorrow."

Unsurprisingly, Luna instantly got the urge to ask about his plans again, but Kane shushed her.

"Just trust me, alright?" he grinned mischievously, before turning around and walking out the door. "Now come on, let's check out this meditation room. I want to contact Mána again, and have a look at what Archibald's technique has in store for me."

Luna grumbled a little, but still sighed, clothed herself, and followed her master. "Fine… but tomorrow better be good!"
