Chapter 9: Looks can be deceiving

Christian's injuries were starting to take a toll on him, his eyes still burned from the green mist the fleaman and his back hurt from the vampires he'd just battled. From the little vision that he had, he could he see that he was in the castle's living quarters. As he passed through the corridor, a feminine voice entered his mind,

"Well, well well…what do we have here? Has the handsome Belmont come to pay me a visit?" The voice asked ending with a haughty laugh, Christian ignored the voice and continued through the living quarters, and so far he hadn't encountered any monsters….yet. The hall ended with a large double door; from behind the door he could smell an exotic perfume. Slowly he opened the door and stepped inside, the room was fairly large with several windows that held an excellent view of the castle's forest, in the center of the room was a large bed covered by silky satin black sheets and pillows but it was the figure on the bed that caught Christian's attention. A red headed woman lay on the bed fully nude, her body was the essence of perfection, she had curves in all the right places and her breasts were the perfect shape, not too small but not too large. Her long legs were spread opening revealing a shaven vagina, but what Christian noticed when he looked at her face was that the woman looked remarkably identical to Krystal.

"Christian, come…make love to me." The woman said lustfully, her tongue running over her full red lips. Christian's body became stiff with pleasure as the woman giggled in amusement and wiggled her finger, motioning for him to come closer. Despite her resemblance to his lover, he knew that this woman was not his woman and thus he had to resist his slowly but surely desires.

"I do not know if you are a slave or an inhabitant of this castle but I will not give in to your temptations…" Christian said trying to keep his voice calm and firm, the red headed woman began to laugh and suddenly a white light filled the room. When it cleared, the woman was no longer on the bed but was floating in the air, two long batlike wings formed from her shoulder blades.

"It seems tempting you wasn't as easy as I thought it would be…I guess death will have to do then." The succubus said and shot a spike from her wing at him, Christian rolled out of the way and threw a dagger at her, the flying demon dodged it and flew at him, Christian hit her twice with his whip forcing her to back off momentarily. Seeing this, Christian raced out of the room with the demon right behind him; he knew he had the advantage in the halls since the succubus couldn't fly too high which kept her in range of his weapons. As he reached one of the many stair cases, he turned and faced the succubus who had made two additional images of herself, all of whom sent spikes from their wings at him. At the last minute, Christian back flipped off the edge of the stairs and threw two crosses at the succubus; the holy weapons destroyed the two fake succubus and sent the real succubus to the stairs below them. The demoness began to bleed out as Christian landed right in front of her, but to his shock she started laughing as she managed to weakly point above him. Looking up, a dark figure dropped in front of Christian and kicked him in the jaw sending him stumbling to the lower stairs, knocking him unconscious. The figure looked at the dead succubus for a moment before dropping down next to the unconscious Belmont; he was a very good looking male with short black hair, red eyes and a body that any human would die for, like the succubus he had bat like wings. He was the male counterpart to the succubus;

He was an incubus.
