Story 2 "Lilith"
By Homer Vargas and Trey Gallant
The wind and rain lashed the windows of the stately
house on the hill in the country-side. Through the
clamor of the storm, Lilith heard a car's engine begin
to sputter and miss. Few could have caught the sound
over the storm rattling the windows, but her hearing
was more acute than an ordinary woman's. All her
senses -- and urges -- were. And those senses informed
her that the auto turned off the road into her driveway,
and its motor died, leaving it to coast to a stop near
her entrance gate.
She was not expecting any company. She had dressed
for the evening en negligee', as the French used to
say, suitable for a night alone. But also for a tete
a tete, she smiled. Always be prepared. Her house
was set back a long way from the road, and it was
raining torrents. Out here, twenty miles from the
city there were no near neighbors. There was no help
for it, the driver of the stricken vehicle would have
to come up the drive to her door, and hope she would
let him in to call for a tow truck. He was going to
get soaked, walking that far. Or she? No, somehow
she knew it would be a male, a young male. Her nerves
tingled in expectation, and her hunger stirred. It
would take him a few minutes to make his way here.
More than enough time to prepare.
She opened her satin robe, black as her hair, exposing
the shorter night gown of the same material. She
appraised her appearance in the mirror in the hall,
noting with approval how the gown and robe set off her
fair, almost pale skin. Her eyes were dark,
mysterious; many women tried to imitate the effect
with make-up. She needed none. Her ensemble clung to
her slender yet voluptuous figure. Her bosom was twin
snowy mounds with a deeply shadowed valley between.
This would do very well. Experience gave her
confidence in her powers.
She was ready by the entrance when the doorbell rang.
She let it ring a second time, then opened the door.
She studied the young man standing there while her
appearance had its desired effect on him. He was well
made. His face was ruggedly strong rather than
handsome. No little intelligence, and even more
strength of character looked out of his blue eyes.
His hair was wetly plastered to his head; she could
not judge the color. In spite of being miserably
drenched and cold, he radiated vigor and vitality.
She suppressed an urge to lick her lips. She could
not have chosen better. His stunned reaction
indicated a healthy masculine heterosexuality. Very
good. This would make her task easier ... and more
pleasant. She allowed him to stare for a few seconds
longer.
"Yes?" she said finally. He came to himself with a
start. He seemed embarrassed by his speechlessness,
as if it was the fault of his rudeness rather than her
calculated effort. She eyed him with amusement.
"My car broke down." He gestured towards the gate of
her drive, although human eyes probably could not see
it through the storm. "I wonder if I could use your
'phone to call the auto club?"
"They warn single women alone never to let a strange
man into her house," she replied in a teasing tone.
"And the traveler-in-distress is the most transparent
ploy ..." She should know; she had used it often
enough in the past herself. Her accent reflected her
long cosmopolitan life. Of course she did not show
the least sign of apprehension.
"Yes, Ma'am," the distressed traveler answered, taking
her at her word. "This whole situation is right out
of a B-movie script. Could you call them for me,
then? Here is my membership card with my member
number. tell them I'll wait for them in my car. It's
a gray..."
"Oh, _do_ come in!" she interrupted a trifle
impatiently. His misplaced gallantry would spoil her
plans. "I'm in no danger from you, but you're likely
to catch your death if you stand in the rain any
longer!" She stepped aside and opened the door fully.
He did not hesitate, but entered quickly, visibly glad
to get out of the cold and wet. They were in the
entrance hall, with the gleaming white tiled kitchen
off the left, and the living room/parlor straight
ahead. The darkened hall to the right led to the
sleeping quarters. The living room was furnished in
white: deep carpets, plush overstuffed furniture. A
fire burned in the white brick fireplace. Music was
playing softly on her stereo system; although the
volume was low, one could feel the bass line from the
powerful speakers.
"Don't just stand there dripping on my carpet," she
smiled.. "Go into the kitchen and remove those wet
things. I'll bring you something to wear." She went
down the hall to the linen closet. From her vantage
point in the dark, she watched him. He went into the
kitchen, took off his coat and draped it over a chair.
He removed his shoes, then hesitated. She returned to
the foyer and tossed him a large, fluffy towel through
the kitchen door. She laughed. "Go on! Get
undressed! I won't look," she lied. "Dry off!"
He blushed (how charming, she thought), but disrobed
as instructed and dried himself. She busied herself
preparing the living room for the next stage,
surreptitiously looking in on him as he finished and
wrapped the towel around his body. When he had tucked
the ends in to secure the bath sheet in place, she
returned as if by coincidence with a white terry cloth
kimono. "Here," she said not unsympathetically,
handing him the robe. "Put this on. I'll make you
some tea and join you in the living room."
He donned the robe and went into the other room.
While he was in the kitchen, she had turned down the
lights, and changed the music to something soft and
dreamy, vaguely oriental, very quiet but with a slow
pulsing base. "Sit down and make yourself
comfortable," Lilith called to him from the kitchen.
"I've turned up the heat, to help take the chill out
of you."
She watched until he sank into the plush upholstery
and soft cushions of the over-stuffed couch with a
sigh. The warmth of the fire and the sensuous feel of
the velvety pile would coax him into relaxing. She
saw him hesitate, them put his head back, giving in to
the music's invitation to let go. She smiled to
herself and put the kettle on. Soothing and mildly
sedative herbs were ready in an infusion bag. She let
the implied suggestions she had implanted in the
living room music take effect while the kettle boiled
and the brew steeped. When it had reached the right
strength and temperature, she poured a cup for him,
and returned to the living room.
His eyes were closed as she expected. She sat by his
side, curling one leg up under her so she was facing
him, regarding him for a few moments. He would do; he
would more than do. Sensing her presence, he blinked,
and raised his head to look at her. She handed him
the faintly steaming mug with a smile. "Comfy? Might
as well make the best of it Look's like you're stuck
here with me for a while, so you might as well feel at
home. Here, drink this."
Her fingers lightly brushed his own as she handed him
the mug. He sipped the sweet fragrant liquid,
somewhere between warm and hot, to encourage him to
drink. It was delicious. He sipped again. As she
watched, she could almost see its soothing effect
speed through him, relieving the chill and stiffness
of the drenching he had received, as it gently relaxed
his muscles and beguiled his defenses. He glanced at
her over the rim of the cup. Her robe was open and
flowed behind her. The gown was slit to the hip, and
she had seated herself in a position calculated to
open it and subtly display her smooth, shapely legs.
The neckline of her gown was disconcertingly low, and
contrasted strikingly with her milk white bosom. He
realized he was staring, and jerked his eyes up to her
face. She saw his confusion, and smiled again.
"It is all right," she spoke in a tone of quiet
amusement. "Finish your tea. Relax. I want you to
feel comfortable here."
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to stare," he stammered,
then sipped more of the herbal brew to cover his
embarrassment.
"It really is all right," she assured him. "It is
hard not to look at me, isn't it" Don't worry, I want
you to relax and feel comfortable looking at me."
He blushed furiously. How sweet, she thought, to find
a man who can blush these days. Plainly to cover his
confusion, he raised one eyebrow quizzically. She
laughed musically and placed her right hand on his
thigh.
"Would I dress like this if I didn't want men to look
at me. I LIKE having a man look at me. Especially a
nice YOUNG man." She smiled and leaned her face in
her left hand, resting that elbow on the back of the
couch. She gazed steadily into his eyes as she
continued speaking. "And you do enjoy looking at my
breasts, don't you?" She did not remove her hand from
his lap, but let it drift lightly up towards his
crotch.
"Er...yes, yes I ... I do," he admitted nervously.
"Of course you do," she repeated with mock coyness.
"I can tell," she went on, trailing her fingers across
his groin. "I believe looking at my cleavage could
even be getting you turned on. Don't be embarrassed.
It happens all the when I show young men my breasts.
I like it when a man cannot keep his eyes off my
bosom. I like it even better when he tries to peek up
my gown as you are doing." His eyes dropped to her
lap in response to the implicit suggestion. "Trying
to see if I have on panties?" She didn't, of course,
and his eyes were riveted to the narrow gap at the top
of the slit in her gown by the hint of a confirming
glimpse. She reached out and took the now empty cup
from his unfeeling fingers. "What is your name? she
said, abruptly changing the subject.
"Ah...my name? Oh, Carl," he stammered, blinking and
dragging his eyes back up to meet her own. "My name
is Carl..."
"Carl," she interrupted. "That's a nice name, an
easy, pleasant name. You like being here with me,
don't you, Carl? Not waiting for an answer, she put
the cup down on the coffee table, and slipped her hand
inside the robe he was wearing, grazing her fingertips
down his bare thigh. "Are you feeling relaxed and
comfortable, Carl?"
"Oh, . sure," he replied hastily, clearly trying not
to show just how un-comfortable he really was. He
tried to return her steady look, but her gaze was too
intense, and the pull of her low neckline was so
strong, that his eyes kept drifting back into the
shadowed cleft between her creamy breasts.
"I don't think you are not telling me the truth,
Carl," she smiled. "It's all right. Like most men,
you are a little bit afraid of me. I am a mysterious,
sexy woman and I am wearing clothes to make you look
at me. I think this negligee with its low neckline
intimidates you. You are feeling a little aroused.
Perhaps you are worried that I might seduce you, try
to take advantage of you. After all, the lights are
dim, the room is warm and cozy. I have you all alone
with no one to see what I am doing to you. I could
caress you and you might become hopelessly aroused."
Her palm rested warmly against the inside of his
thigh, while her fingers moved dreamily in little
circles, barely touching his skin. "Are you afraid
that I might make you have sex with me against your
will?"
"Yes...," he answered abstractedly, his eyes and mind
elsewhere, as she had arranged.
"Well, you are right to be concerned. It would be
easy, so easy to manipulate your mind to take
advantage of you." Just as I have been doing, she
thought. "But you do not need to worry, Carl. Relax.
I never make love to a man against his will. I do not
take a man until I have made him very, very willing.
If I fuck you, I will make sure you really want it
first. So make yourself comfortable, and just put
those fears out of your mind."
"All right." he murmured compliantly, knowing somehow
that he should not.
"Let me help you forget your fears. You can relax.
You can trust me." She slid her hand up to his waist
and unfastened the robe. She smiled a twisted little
smile, almost a smirk, and dropped her hand to his
lap. she began a slow gentle stroking of his crotch.
"We will just talk. You can tell me anything, and
listen carefully to everything I say."
"Uh, ma'am... Oh! . You shouldn't. . Please don't
do that!"
"No?" She didn't pause even for an instant as she
replied. "Do you not like a woman's warm hand on your
sex?"
"Aahh...yes. But it is getting me aroused!"
"That's just the point. Your prick is already getting
so big and hard!"
"But..."
"Do not fight it, Carl. It is for your own good. You
must be completely open and at ease with me. Open to
me. I want you aroused. Getting a man aroused makes
him docile and obedient. Does not my playing with
your penis make you feel like doing anything I tell
you?"
"Oh, yeess, Ma'am," Carl sighed.
"That's right. Good. Very good. Now close your eyes
and tell me everything about yourself," she commanded.
"Yes, Ma'am," Carl murmured as he drifted slowly down
through the dreamy mood her hand on his cock induced
and to the threshold of trance she had prepared him
for. His eyelids drifted shut. She spoke to him
softly, her lips next to his ear. She knew he was
hearing her voice as if from a long way off. She
asked him about his name, where he lived, his friends,
his family, his job.... He answered automatically,
without thinking. Eventually, using the information
she gleaned, she began turning the questions around,
twisting his answers into contradictions, confusing
him, rendering the things he had told her meaningless.
The facts of his life grew fuzzy and unimportant to
him. Making him forget the pretty little blonde
fiancee was a little harder, but so satisfying.
Eventually it was impossible for him to follow what
she was doing in the hazy sensual fog with which she
surrounded him, saturated him. Finally, she recalled
him to consciousness. "You may open your eyes, carl."
She made sure he heard in her tone her use of the
lower case initial letter of his name, turning it into
a diminutive.
His eyes fluttered open, as if he were reluctant to
leave the pleasant daze. She gazed intently into his
face from up close. Her perfume was a fragrant cloud
around him, making his head swim. She had opened his
robe, and unwrapped his towel, but he barely seemed to
notice. He stirred slightly, trying to move. She knew
he would feel light headed and leaden limbed.
"What happened, Ma'am," he asked. "And what IS your
name? I can't just keep calling you 'Ma'am'."
"You may call me Lilith, for now," she replied. "What
happened is what is still happening, what is going to
happen, what I am going to do . to you." She
continued to caress his manhood, which was by now
quite engorged and erect.
"Doing to me, Lilith?" he asked, looking helpless and
confused.
"Do you not know, carl? You Americans have forgotten
so much history and folk lore. It makes you so
vulnerable, so easy to take advantage of." She smiled
triumphantly. Her teeth were very white, and her lips
had become rosy and full. She saw he noticed the
change. "The tea, of course, was drugged. Nothing
strong, just some herbs to make you sleepy and
disoriented. You really should not accept food or
drink from strangers, you know." He struggled to sit
up, evidently finding it extraordinarily difficult.
She placed a gentle restraining hand on his bare
chest, easily pushing him back down. "Don't bother
trying. You are too dizzy to get up yet," she
suggested. She began to play with his nipples. "And
then I aroused you, as I am still doing. That makes
it easy to cast my spell over you. You would say I
hypnotized you."
"But why?" Carl gasped.
"Why?" Lilith tossed her hair back. "Because I can.
Because I need to feed off the sexual energy of men
who are careless enough to let me seduce them. Do you
know what a succubus is?" She slipped off her robe,
leaving only the black satin gown clinging to her lush
body.
"Some kind of demon of lust?" Carl answered. She
sensed him struggling to comprehend and resist what
was happening. Such great strength of will, such
steely character. His resistance excited her.
"That is medieval superstition," Lilith responded
scornfully. "I am as natural a creature as you.
According to your Professor Gould, our two kinds must
even have had a common ancestor in the distant past;
I could bear a child by you, if I chose to. But
tonight we will merely have sex." She smiled
wickedly. "that is how I feed, you know. I will
arouse you until you cannot resist me, and then I will
take you, and at your climax drain from you the sexual
energy that I need. Afterwards, if you left here and
I had not told you, you would not have noticed. You
would have only a fuzzy memory of some amazing sex.
Of course, you would have been completely exhausted
for a week or more, but you would have recovered, none
the wiser."
"Then why are you telling me this?" Carl asked,
suspiciously.
"Because you will NOT leave here, carl. When I pick
up occasional men, I am forced to gorge myself which
leaves them drained and exhausted. It is more
healthful for me, and more pleasant for the man, if I
have a regular lover from whom I can take smaller
amounts of sexual energy more frequently. Until he
passed away, I had a wonderful slave who met my needs
several times a week, even more frequently, when he
was young like you. Since then, I have not been able
to get it nearly often enough. It is even dangerous
picking up strange men. There are too many diseases
out there now."
"And besides, I do need a man around a big house like
this, you know," she added, running her fingers
through his hair, almost tenderly. "Now all I have to
do is take you to bed with me. I'll make you enjoy it
so much that after just one night with me, you will
become my private servant and devoted lover. You have
what I need, and soon you will need what I only can
give you, carl. But fear not, my sweet, I am going to
make sure you always enjoy serving and feeding me."
"Lilith!" he protested. "You can't do...I won't..."
"Hush," she said tenderly and kissed him, taking hold
of his cock again and starting to rub it vigorously
but deliciously. "Do not say silly things. I know
what I can do to you, what I have done to you. I am
now your succubus. I have been in your mind. After
our little chat, I understand you completely. I know
your weaknesses and how to take advantage of them. I
know how to turn you on, carl, whether you want to be
or not. Like most human males, you have a secret
desire to be dominated by a beautiful woman. With me
, you are going to get your deepest wish."
"No, Lilith, I don't want that!" he protested. "I
won't let you..."
"Yes, carl, domination. Enthrallment. I can make you
screw me any time I want you to. And since I have not
had a man in several days, I want you now!" She arose
from the couch in a fluid movement. "You will watch
me closely while I remove my gown." She shrugged her
shoulders and the jet satin flowed to the floor. Her
pale flesh gleamed in the dim light. "Seeing my naked
is arousing you intensely. You are becoming very
excited. Having intercourse with me is the capstone
of the spell of enslavement. It will seal the trance
that will make you mine forever."
"I won't let you do that," he objected.
"Yes, you will. You will because I am using a drug on
you that will destroy your mind's last defenses
against my control. It will make you weak and permit
me to do with you as I wish. It is a powerful drug,
carl, much more so than the silly potion I put in your
tea. It will put you into a deep, deep sleep." She
moved back to the couch and knelt beside him.
"A drug?" Carl said skeptically, looking around for
any sign of a hypodermic or pills. She could see that
he was regaining some control of his speech and
thoughts. Soon voluntary control of his limbs would
creep back into his body, as the effects of the
drugged tea faded. He was almost dangerous.
Magnificent! It was time to act.
Lilith laughed. "We succubae have been using this
drug to make men ours for eons. Men know and fear its
power. It is a drug which can become a habit, a drug
that the man knows can make him a slave to the woman
who gives it to him. But when a female of my kind
offers him the potion, he cannot help taking it. You
cannot help taking it," she said, her eyes glowing
into his.
He shook his head, his eyes glazed with both lust and
horror. He tried to avert his gaze, but he was
powerless to prevent her from beginning to stroke his
penis again. With the other hand she caressed his
face, his shoulders and chest, and gently pushed him
down onto the sofa. "Men allow us to drug you because
you enjoy too much they way we administer it," she
gloated.
"Lilith, stop!" he pleaded, looking up into her eyes.
"Are you sure you want me to stop?" she smiled,
teasing his cock with her supple fingers as she
crawled up his body to mount him. "We give you the
drug with our pussies, carl. I secrete a mind-
controlling hormone from between my legs. It is
absorbed by your penis when you make love to me. It
goes into your blood and flows to your brain. It will
make you my slave. Don't make me stop, carl. You
will love the way I drug you. You will come back to
me for it often. You will have to keep coming back to
me again and again for additional doses."
"Look at my breasts!" Her tone changed as she changed
the subject, confusing him further. "I want you to
kiss my tits." She leaned closer, flaunting her bosom
inches from his face, bringing her nipples, so proudly
erect, close to his lips. "Kiss them," she coaxed.
"Lick them. Suck on them."
The languor which arose from her hand stroking his
prick had spread through his body and mind, making
further resistance unthinkable. She slipped one hand
to the back of his neck and drew his face to her
bosom. He moaned as his face sank into her voluptuous
breasts. His obedient mouth found her nipple.
"Ah...that is so nice," the seductress sighed, her
voice deepening with hunger and lust. "You do that
very well, as I knew you would. I will teach you a
thousand ways to please me. You are going to be a
wonderful slave," she sighed as she moved to straddle
his hips. "Tonight, darling, it is not just to feed
on your energy, you know, nor even just to enslave
you. I also have a voracious sexual appetite." she
guided the tip of his prick between her vaginal lips.
"You have come very far, and done very well, and now I
am going to give you the reward I have made you long
for."
With a complex flexing of her lower abdominal
muscles, her nether lips reached out and sucked his
cock inside her. "Best of all," she continued,
leading his mind to be enveloped by hers as his
manhood was swallowed within her body, "You do not
have to do a thing. Just lie back, my darling, and
let me work my will. Feel my pussy close around your
cock. Feel it go up and down the shaft of your
manhood. You like this, don't you? Up...and down,
taking you deeper and deeper into me each time. From
now on, I will take charge of your sex life and make
you love it. It is so easy, carl. You love the way I
fuck you. My pussy goes up...and down...up...and
down...deeper and deeper...It is so relaxing, carl.
You are going to close your eyes and surrender to the
pleasure I am giving you. Close your eyes and let me
fuck you...fuck you..."
"No, Lilith," he protested with the last of his
strength and will. He was almost overwhelmed by the
sensual pleasure, she saw, but that strength of
character she had seen in him from the first instant
rose up to defend his autonomy from her soft assault.
How marvelous to find prey worthy of her powers and
skills. She beamed down at him with admiration, as
she continued to rock him into submission. He looked
directly at her, and accused, "You're trying to
hypnotize me!"
"No, carl. I am strengthening the hypnotic control I
already have. You started going under when you first
saw me. I put you into a medium trance while we were
talking as you drank my tea, right after you came in.
Post-hypnotic suggestion left you weak and easy to
sexually arouse. Now you are going under my spell
again. Each time I fuck you, it will get easier to
take you under my control, the control you will come
to crave. Now be still and let me continue."
"No," he moaned vainly.
"Yes, carl. This feels too good to resist. You are
getting so weak, sinking into my power. You are so
drowsy. You are struggling so hard to stay awake, my
sweet. Don't fight it. Close your eyes, my darling,
and let me fuck you. You are going to fall asleep in
my arms, carl. You will fall into a deep sleep and
when you awake you will be my happy sex slave. You no
longer remember your former life. You will not need
to think about anything but pleasing me. Serving me,
feeding me, pleasing me will be your whole life,
carl."
"Now relax completely, my sweet, while my cunt goes up
and down on your cock and puts you to sleep ... up ...
and down ... fucks you ... up ... and down ....
Putting you to sleep ... up ... and down ... deeper
... up ... and down ... puts you to sleep ... fucks
you to sleep ... fucks you ... to sleep.." Her voice
became softer and her movements accelerated as she
rode him towards orgasm.
He came, and she reached out with the immaterial part
of herself, her own orgasm enveloping and absorbing
his sexual energy, feeding on it, as her body fed on
his cum. Only then did she allow her own climax to
wash over her. She lay next to him for long delicious
minutes as she felt the flow of power from his body to
hers, re-energizing her, nourishing her, rejuvenating
her.
Then, sated for a time, she looked down on the young
man lying beneath her. Drained now, sleeping so
peacefully, so profoundly. Surprisingly, she found
she actually felt affection for him. He was strong.
He would serve her well for many years. The service
would take its toll, of course, but with proper care,
for many years just the same. She had never been
particularly good at caring for her men. But this one
seemed special. She could see that the years would be
happy ones, filled with pleasure. Pleasure in serving
her.
Perhaps, even ... it was too soon to think about that
yet, but the time could be coming ... perhaps he would
be the one she would allow to put the long-desired
daughter into her womb. She snuggled against his hard
young body, happy with her new slave, and joined him
in sleep.
