“We don’t have time do we?” Marco said.

Dain-az-garth smiled, “We have as long as you want to spend.”

“But we need to figure out what is going on and if we’ve been going at it for four hours?” he shrugged his shoulders.

“Fine,” she said with an exasperated sigh. “But please do fuck me later, and you can cum anywhere you like.”

She walked towards the exit, her arse and tail swishing. As Marco watched, he cursed himself for not taking her up on the offer. He wanted to feel her fully. “So, where are we going?”

She bent over, revealing her glistening slit to him as she picked up her corset and fastened it. It lifted her breasts and had a leather strappy skirt hanging from it which, mostly, covered her nakedness. “Well, the Nexus is the obvious choice, but if you can’t use magic at the moment, you might want to gear up some. Make sure that the next thing we face, you can handle.”

Marco joined her in getting dressed, “The next thing?”

Dain-az-garth laughed. “Oh yes, I can smell the magic here. There are many things about. Much worse things than banshees or succubi.”

Marco thought for a moment, “Then we go to the Solarnarium. It’s restricted due to the dangerous artifacts held there. But hopefully, we will be able to get in and get something that will help.”

The succubus smiled and licked her lips, “I think that sounds like a good plan. And hopefully, we can find somewhere quiet to spend some time together.”

Marco led the way out as the succubus conjured a sphere of light. Slowly they walked through the abandoned halls of the school before getting to the secret passage he used to access this part of the architecture. He said the passphrase, and Dain-az-garth laughed. “Won’t work. Magic is broken, remember.”

“Shit, we’ll have to go the long way. Come on.” He led them back into the dark tunnels. After a little way, Marco stopped. “What’s that noise?” he asked.

Dain-az-garth stopped. She could hear a rasping sound in the distance. “Walk carefully,” she said as she lowered the brightness of the light.

They walked a little further on before Marco peered around a corner. What he saw made his blood run cold.
