How To Treat a Hero

"I see you did enjoy yourself after all." Dusklord noted upon his return. Lilly felt her face flushing a deep red, her hands were still cuffed behind the chair. She wanted to deny him, but the vibrators were still mostly in place too.

"J-just let me out of this, okay? I did what you ask, I could have broken out, but I promised no powers!"

"That is true..." Duslord admitted, walking around the chair slowly, she could hear his foot falls, they made her heart beat faster. She swallowed, trying to moisten her dry throat. Somehow, this wasn't a position she'd ever seen herself in during her fantasies. Or at least, not one she thought might ever actually happen. Tied naked to a chair, the villain slowly stalking around her.

It was made worse by the fact that she could feel that Dusklord was admiring her body, turning this way and that to get the best look at it. His eyes roamed across her pale skin. She wanted to twitch or to pull away, but somehow she managed to resist that urge, closing her eyes and pressing herself back into the chair.

"Do you like what you see?" She said, trying to find refuge in sarcasm.

"I liked it a long time ago," Dusklord replied, totally unfazed, "At this point, I'm just admiring it. You know, you have a very nice body."

Lilly felt herself blushing again, which only fuelled her inner fire. A voice inside of her head couldn't help but ask why she was flushing and blushing like some schoolgirl. It wasn't as though she'd never has sex before, or done anything that was kinky. It was just that somehow, she'd never thought to be doing it with someone who, well, frankly, had tried to kill her a few times in the past. Though she did admit that was when they had both been a bit younger and more hot headed. Nowadays, they mostly just clashed, exchanged banter, and then sooner or later one of them would get the edge over the other and win the fight. Lilly was by far one of the most powerful heroes in the city, so it wasn't like she was often the loser even when Dusklord was her foe, but she was and always had been acutely aware that he was probably by far the most powerful villain in the city too. When they fought, it was always a spectacle, and the media loved it.

What would the cameras and the media think if they saw her now? Chained to a chair, and Dusklord circling her like a shark? The very idea made her shiver and shake, and caused a tiny spark to flicker inside of her body, filling her with heat.

"What..." Lilly swallowed, and tried to speak more confidently as he started again, "What exactly are you going to do now, Dusklord?"

He looked down at her, his handsome face was difficult to read, but she was sure she saw the echo of the same longing that filled her own mind. Lilly jumped as he put a hand on her shoulder, his fingers gently brushing her skin. He felt colder than average. Not like unhealthily cold or something, but it was to do with why he was so pale and how his power worked. She could feel his body so close to her own, and tried not to focus on how much she wanted it to be even closer yet.

"That depends..." He said, slowly leaning down, and moving his mouth to her ear. The soft play of his breath tickled her skin, made her ear twitch. Lilly tried to bit down on the moan, but it escaped when he started to gently nibble her ear. He was soft, gentle, it didn't hurt, but the stimulation was surprisingly strong. The moan escaped her lips before she could catch it, quickly followed by a few more as he started to work his way down her neck, kissing her again and again. His lips traced a pattern down the side of her throat, lazily teasing her skin, making her toes curl and her fingers flex. She breathed heavily, unable to believe just how intense this felt just with his lips alone.

As he moved slowly downwards, Lilly's heart rate spiked. Her insides curled and coiled, exciting and dread mixing together. Down he went, tracing a path around to her front, kissing her, and trailing his mouth lower and lower. Then, just when Lilly felt she knew what was about to happen, Dusklord broke away, Lilly felt a ping of disappointment that he hadn't carried on and moved to her chest.

"What do you think should happen next?" He breathed into her ear again, the feeling of the words sent vibrations dancing along her spine. "What should happen to a heroine who was captured by her archenemy, and is now stripped naked? Should she be given any mercy? Allowed any dignity?"

"N-no..." Lilly breathed, her heart was hammering faster, and her mouth was dry, she couldn't believe what she was saying, but it felt like all of those years of quiet yearning were coming to a fore now, all her fantasies laid out before her. Maybe that was what he was doing, maybe he knew that he was simply making her choose one of her many daydreams. It didn't matter. She gulped, feeling a strange sense which turned out out to be fear mixed with trepidation.

"What should happen, Redwing?"

"She..." Lilly took a breath, her head was spinning, and her mouth was dry. She knew that her nipples were getting stiff again, she could feel their hardness as they caught the cold air. "She shouldn't be offered any of those things. A...a hero who was captured..."

"Yes?" Dusklord pressed, his words tickled her ear. "What should happen to her?"

"S-she should be stripped naked, and made to walk to her cell so that everyone can see her shame. All of the villain's minions would get a chance to see the hero who had beaten them again and again at her most ****. She should be made to apologise to them, f-for ever getting in their way. And if she doesn't, the villain should punish her in front of them until she does..."

Lilly swallowed again, her ears couldn't believe what her mouth was saying, but at the same time, she couldn't seem to stop, she plunged on before she lost her courage.

"The cell should be somewhere small, but not too small. It just shouldn't have anywhere to hide for her. And...and it should be public, so that anyone who wants in the castle can come and see her humiliation. There should be machines there, a-and tools to steal her dignity. And once she is there, those machines should be used to tease her all night..."

"And that is how you break a hero, is it?" Dusklord asked.

That's how you break this one, Lilly thought but didn't say.

"Oh, very well. You're clearly the expert here. So as a mere arch-villain, I should bow to your superior experience. Come, my lady. Your room awaits."
