A normal (if stunning) human woman... at first.

The last thing Pascal expected from the mysterious 'Mayor Scarlet' was an actual human woman, but there she was, striding towards him. Dusky sun-kissed skin, luxuriously wavy black hair, full ruby-red lips, striking blue eyes, and a gorgeous red dress with a plunging neckline showing off her firm, melon-sized breasts... which were small for this world but immense in human proportions. Pascal was fully stunned by her supermodel beauty as she walked right up to him and... kissed him passionately, taking him by surprise as she fully made out with him for a few long, eternal seconds.

When she finally released him from her kiss, he was breathless and she was smiling, just a little bit proudly. "I do apologize for giving you a panic attack," she said, her arms still wrapped around his shoulders and her chest smooshed under his chin - she was a little taller than him, too. "I thought it'd be better to let you have a little fun first before bringing you here and bringing everything to a screeching halt for some exposition. But in doing so, I left you with a lot of existential questions, and I'm sorry."

Feeling compelled to assuage this beautiful woman's worries, even though he barely had context for what she was saying, Pascal waved a hand dismissively and said, "I just kind of have panic attacks whenever, so you were probably damned either way. That's on me."

Mayor Scarlet chuckled and ran a hand seductively through Pascal's hair, making his heart race again. "Oh, Pascal... Always quick to take everything on your own shoulders. But this is a place for you to enjoy yourself to the fullest, to let go and indulge. You have zero responsibilities here, zero expectations, zero deadlines, zero danger, and infinite opportunities."

Sweating and swallowing a lump in his throat, Pascal glanced behind him at the grand table with the scale model of Nestledeep, then back at her. "What... What kind of place is this?" Under his breath, he added, "Seems too good to be true..."

Scarlet finally let him go. Smirking, she brushed past him and sat upon the edge of the table. "I suppose that brings us to the dreaded exposition. I'm going to try to answer as many of your burning questions as possible in one go, so don't interrupt me until I'm finished, okay?"

Pascal just nodded and listened.

"This world is a dreamscape in your mind. A dream conjured and controlled by me, drawn and influenced from your deepest fantasies. I am the Scarlet Consort, the 'spirit' - if you will - of the Book of Erotic Fantasies, the red leather book you opened by chance this evening. I am nourished by your lust and satisfaction, so I have every incentive to make sure you are having the time of your life. There is no hidden cost, no devil's pact for your soul or life **** - all that is required of you is your participation. This is symbiotic, not parasitic. I am functionally immortal and not strictly human; I do not get 'bored' or 'disappointed' or 'scandalized' like a human might in my position, so you are in no danger of being 'kicked out.' This dream lasts until you are ready and explicitly willing to wake up. When you do, you will have slept deeply, peacefully, and healthily in the real world for 8 hours without incident, no matter how much time you spend 'here,' even if that's for years and years on end." The Scarlet Consort took a deep breath and smiled brightly. "There we go - any questions so far?"

Stunned, Pascal took a few long seconds to ruminate on what he'd just heard. His quick-to-panic brain tried to find something to worry about, but she'd managed to cover a lot of bases. The only thing he could really worry about logic-wise was whether or not she was telling the truth. And if she'd really gone to all the trouble of generating this... this paizuri paradise... then it was hard to imagine a logical scenario where this was all one big setup.

"Of course," the Scarlet Consort added, interrupting his train of thought, "if you ever feel truly scared or like you can't trust me, you have the ability to 'eject' from this dream at any time and finish your 8 hours of sleep without me. I hold incredible power here, but ultimately this is your dream. This is not a hostage situation; I cannot 'capture' you. It's not a matter of survival for me, either - worst-case scenario, I'll just have to wait until another potential dreamer opens the Book. It usually doesn't take long," she added with a smirk.

Pascal just had to chuckle - he was being read like, well... a book! "You've done this a few times, huh?"

"For countless years," she confirmed with an unmistakably proud smile, "for many men, women, and those between. Needless to say, every question you could possibly have, I've answered it a few times before."

Pascal rubbed the back of his neck and digested all this information a little more. He looked around the room, taking in the details of the architecture. "...This is very detailed for a dream."

The Scarlet Consort almost beamed. "Thank you! Though I can't take all the credit." She slid off the table and walked around it, running a hand along the edge as she fixed her gaze on the model of Nestledeep. "The characteristics of the dreams I make are, in many ways big and small, drawn from the minds of the dreamer themselves. And you, Mr. Zenovich, are a very detail-oriented person with a vivid imagination."

With a chuckle and a sigh, he nodded and replied, "Escapism will do that..."

"Then think of this as a vacation from reality," she said as she completed her lap around the table. "A vacation that will last as looong as you want, and no one else will know. And when you decide to wake up and spend another day in your real life, you can open the book again the next night and continue this fantasy where you left off, or embark on a brand new one." She let out a huff. "Goodness, there's a lot to cover. You see why I wanted to let you jump into the action first?"

Pascal nodded. Unfortunately, his nerves needed all these questions to be answered, or else he'd be worried about them and unable to focus on just enjoying the fantasy around him. Even when it was chock-full of his favorite thing. After spending some time staring off into space in thought, he glanced over at her again, drinking in her supermodel body. "So... if everything here is drawn from my fantasies... does that include you? Or is this your, uh, 'normal' form...?"

The Scarlet Consort grinned, as though he had asked exactly the right question. "What you're actually asking is, 'Why don't I look like some ultra-busty exotic sci-fi or fantasy woman straight out of my most erotic fantasies?'"

He was caught. Pascal gulped. Her human body was hot and all... but he was a massive pervert, and simply being a supermodel wasn't quite enough for his interests...

"Such a greedy human..." she teased, her voice taking on a faint additional layer. She leaned back against the model table and wiggled her bust at him. "Lucky for you, I love indulging your sexual greed... to the fullest."

The Scarlet Consort threw her head back and moaned as her body began to... shrink? Her arms, legs, head, and torso began to recede before his eyes, until her feet were no longer touching the ground and she had to sit on the edge of the table. Her bust, however, was steadily growing, like the rest of her body mass was shifting into it. As for her red dress, it was... spreading out, covering the rest of her body, and also tightening around her, almost like... a second skin? Silky-smooth, blood-red skin...

Pascal realized what was happening the moment before a pair of black horns sprouted from the top of Scarlet's head. A long spaded tail emerged from her ample backside, and a pair of leathery bat wings burst from her shoulder blades. Each new feature was accompanied with another gasping moan and convulsion of ecstasy.

Moments later, the transformation was finished. Where there had once been a stunning human woman, there was now a naked demonic imp, a thickly padded shortstack with stubby arms and legs, sporting humongous lap-overflowing tits twice as big as Pascal's own head. Her eyelids fluttered and then opened, revealing pitch-black eyes with glowing blue irises, devilish and powerful. Her plump blowjob lips parted to reveal a mischievous sharp-toothed grin.

"This is my 'true' form in this world," the Scarlet Consort mused with a sultry hum as she examined her black, pointed nails. Her voice had taken on a full additional layer, demonic and tempting, like every word was sizzling on the air when it left her mouth. With a playful pout, she glanced up at him with faux nonchalance. "What do you think? It was drawn from your fantasies, after all."

Pascal swallowed hard as he beheld the true Mayor Scarlet in her demonic shortstack form. He couldn't help but notice she was like a cross between several fictional characters of similar proportions, with a massive bust to dwarf the inspirations. "M-My fantasies, huh? Y-Yeah, that tracks...!"
