“My queen,” Rat replied.

“You are a queen,” the little imp said. He bowed and made a little flourish with his hands, and suddenly darkness seemed to well out from corners and recesses in the hall. Out of the darkness, imps came dozens of them.

“Succubi are creatures manifest from lust and passion.” Rat explained while bowed. “You, you aren’t manifest from desire. You, yourself, manifest desire.”

“I’m a monster,” Beth screamed.

Rat nodded, “Yes, but you are a most fetching monster, and if you allowed us, we would all like to take our pleasures upon you and serve you.”

Beth closed her eyes and thought for a moment. “I have been changed by corruption,” she said.

Rat shrugged, “Human words, not demon words. Corruption is the magic humans think is unnatural, but is it perfectly natural where we come from.” He indicated those around him, which now numbered some one hundred imps.

“You are all here to serve me?” Bethany asked them as she looked around.

Rat nodded. “We will do anything, to spend some time in your presence and so much more to be able to enjoy your company.”

Beth closed her eyes, trying to focus, trying to hold her lust at bay. “Alright, alright. You call me queen,” she said, “then I have edicts.” She pointed at Rat. He had been loyal-ish. “You,” she looked around and found another imp that had a nice thick cock, “you.” She continued to pick out imps, male and female until she felt she would have her fill. “You stay here, you attend me, and if I’m not satisfied.” She pointed at the Marhagore, “I will stuff you up its anus. The rest of you. I need the essence of water, the scale of a mermaid, the crystal of thrull and fourteen pristine white flowers. Bring them here, and to those who bring the ingredients, I will be at their disposal until they beg me to stop.”

The Imps quickly scrambled to comply. Several of them approaching her, and others running back into the dark alcoves they had come from. “My Queen,” Rat said, “I am honoured to have been picked. I forfeit the time that you own me in return for one boon.”

Bethany turned to face him, “What is it you desire?”

Rat smiled, “To be at your disposal and please you how I meagrely can, as much as I can until my body wastes away.”

Bethany sat on the Marhagore’s thigh and spread her legs, “Then get to it, with your mouth.”
