Who should we go for?
Voi of Nox.
Being more apprehensive and nervous than before, and given that you enjoy living, a couple of days before she was supposed to arrive, you took a very long drive across state borders, where you hope no one would recognize you, to find a house of ill-repute, with a sizable line-up. Your reasoning being, that you'd rather compensate women for their energy, instead of just leeching it off them. That plan worked for the evening you were there, before you were banned from the establishment, after making the entire shift, including the receptionist, ragged and bowlegged with just your mouth and fingers. You don't get much sleep in the hotel that night, your nerves crackling like lightning.
When you returned home the next day, you were greeted by the sounds of a scuffle and shrieking. Opening your door, you saw Selas being physically restrained by Nanny Mara and Grimmsby. "Come on! He's glowing brighter than the Gates! Just let me have a little bit! I'm pregnant! I need it for the baby!" With her kicking and screaming and flailing wildly, her retainers managed to drag her away from you, reminding her that you needed this charge for her plans. You shook your head, turned on your heel, and left to go find somewhere you can sleep, to remove temptation from her.
In the morning, Nanny Mara calls you and says that they've made the necessary steps to ensure that you and Selas won't be in the same physical space, even if you're in the same room, so that proper protocol can be observed when your guest arrives. That proves to be true when you walk through your door again, and when Selas flat-out tackles you, she passes through you before being caught by demons so that she doesn't hurt herself. After the next ten failed attempts, she stomps away, swearing under her breath and taking out her frustrations by vaporizing any unfortunate demon that gets in her path.
She seems to have composed herself enough though, when the two of you are in the summoning room, but her tail does keep jabbing at your ankles. A portal opens wide and you feel the air in the room get sucked through it, and a chill shiver on your skin, despite your great, albeit temporary, power. A slim female being of black shadows with what look like tiny stars littering her body, steps out of the portal, and two pools of white and grey open where her eyes should be. "Selas Lusandar," a multitude of voices comes from her mouthless face, but you can hear a welcoming smile in her tone. "I am grateful for the invitation. How long has it been since we've visited each other?"
"Nox Voi," Selas replies, as the portal winks shut, "We welcome you to our new home." You raise an eyebrow at that, but she ignores you. "How was your journey?"
"Well enough, well enough," Voi says, her tone growing more and more bored. Her head looks around and her hands come up. "That ought to be enough for protocol right?"
"Oh fuck yeah. Get over here, bitch!" Selas smiles from ear to ear. Laughing, the demonesses hug each other and kiss cheeks. "Oh, you fucking whore, I have missed you."
"You're one to talk, slut," Voi scoffs, putting a hand on Selas' stomach. "I'm not the one with a human's baby in their body."
"Not yet," is the sly counter. Taking her hand, Selas lead Voi over to you and you introduce yourself politely. The smile in her eyes (?) vanishes and they narrow deeply. You know what she's doing. You puff your chest out and project your power in her direction, showing her that now, you are not to be underestimated.
