Chapter 5 the woman who lived a thousand years.
That night Aiden decided to go out drinking for a bit.
Putting on a nice coat and holstering a handgun just in case along with a taser Aiden walked by Kimihito and said, "I'm going out drinking if I'm not back by let's say midnight send Rachnera, if I'm not back by 4 am send Lala and if I'm not back at all… call a hearse."
Kimihito groaned and his brothers attempt at humor and said, "okay I promise, but at least let your girls know where you're going because they get worried every time you go out!"
Aiden nodded and walked into the living room to see Xochitl reading a magazine, Kiyomi playing a tennis game with Papi, and Freya having a lovely chat with Cerea. As if sensing his presence, the girls all turned to Aiden who told them the same thing he told Kimihito.
Freya said, "okay Alpha just…. please be safe there has been an awful lot of robberies going on and I don't want you to get hurt…please do be careful" looking a little concerned with her piercing blue eyes.
Xochitl smiled at Aiden and said, "hope you have fun sweetheart promise me you'll have fun, and don't worry if Mr. Kimihito and Ms. Lala are unable to get to you, I will personally send my full wrath to find you."
Kiyomi was the only one protesting pausing her game and holding on to Aiden saying, "can I go with you honey bear?"
Aiden gave Kiyomi a loving pat on the head and said, "I know you want to try and protect me, but you don't have to worry about me, if I can survive wars, I can survive a walk at night possibly drunk."
Kiyomi looked up at Aiden with her big, beautiful eyes and nodded her head before going back to her game with Papi and Suu who had snuck in to watch in awe at the games.
Aiden smiled and started to head out for the night arriving shortly at a small pub called the final wish. As he got inside Aiden was greeted by a small group of veterans ranging from Air force to Navy and every branch in between.
Noticing Aiden one of the marine veterans laughed and said, "Oi mate, c'mere!"
Aiden chuckled and went over to them and said, "you guys' veterans too?"
The marine nodded and said, "yeah, all of us served one way or another, what about you mate you have the stance of someone who served, what branch were you?"
Aiden chuckled and said, "Navy, served as a SEAL during for around 11 years."
The marine raised an eyebrow and said, "wait, you wouldn't happen to be the grey ghost would you?"
Aiden laughed and said, "yeah that would be me" before sitting down and ordering a bottle of Lagavulin 16 and a glass.
The marine snickered and said, "nice well, I'm Fredrick, over there is Yuan, Sully, Itami and Doug, we all served most of us were marines minus sully who served air force."
Sully snickered and said, "and I'm the only sober one here."
Aiden laughed and said, "wouldn't have expected anything less from the chair force- sorry I mean air force."
This sent the other veterans into a bit of a laughing fit as Aiden retorted saying, "oi bartender let me get some crayons for my buddy here, he's lookin a little hungry."
The Veterans talked for what seemed like hours till Aiden looked outside to see if the sun was out only to notice his brother Kimihito and Lala surrounded by a group of thugs, two of the thugs Aiden recognized as the couple who insulted him while he was having a small panic attack during the cinco de mayo festival.
Sighing Aiden took a drink of whiskey and said, "excuse me for a second you guys I have something I need to take care of" before going outside to hear the thug making remarks about what he would do to Lala's head.
Aiden's presence didn't go unnoticed, and one of the men turned to face him, smirking arrogantly. "Oi, go back inside punk no need for you to die tonight."
In response, Aiden's eyes hardened, and he said in a stern but controlled voice, "This is your only warning. Leave them alone and walk away. Trust me, you don't want this ass kicking."
The main thug went over to Aiden size him up brandishing his pipe and shouting, "kid there are more of us than you, the only way this will end is with you in a body bag."
Aiden merely straightened his Navy SEAL cap in response and whistled, catching the attention of the other vets who came out to see what the commotion was.
The marine Vet broke his bottle turning it into a makeshift shank and said, "okay lieutenant who needs to die tonight?"
The thugs hesitated for a moment, uncertain of the force they were up against. The atmosphere around the veterans was electric, and they could feel the tension building in the air.
Aiden stepped forward, and his gaze met the leader's eyes. "You have no idea who you're dealing with," he said, the edges of his words carrying a warning. "We've been through hell and back, so I'll say this in words your simple mind can understand, Piss off now."
The leader looked around at the united front of battle-hardened veterans, and it finally dawned on him that they were vastly outnumbered and outmatched. Reluctantly, he gestured to his companions, and they begrudgingly backed off, retreating into the shadows.
As the group dispersed, Aiden turned to Kimihito and Lala, concern etched on his face. "Are you both alright?"
Kimihito nodded with gratitude. "Yes, thanks to you guys"
Lala's eyes glowed with admiration. "Thank you," she said softly.
Aiden smiled calmly and said, "I guess I should have called in to tell you guys I was alright, I'm gonna go back inside and finish my whiskey and then head back home, okay?"
Kimihito nodded and said, "okay thanks bro we'll see you at home" before walking away.
Aiden nodded and went back to drinking with his buddies through the night.
Sully looked at Aiden and said, "Oi Aiden, you a part of the whole homestay program?"
Aiden gave a nod and said, "my brother is too, he has a lamia a harpy a mermaid, a centaur an Arachne a slime and a Dullahan living with him meanwhile I have an Oni and a Quetzecoatl"
Sully whistled and said, "must be rough at times, that also explains why your prosthetic looks so beaten up."
Aiden looked down at his left arm which looked like it had been through hell and back and said, "yeah, I mean I guess it has but not a lot of engineers out here know how to repair it without billing me in the hundred thousand"
Sully laughed and said, "well then come on down to the VET center we have some tech guys who can buff it out and I'm sure you'd love to be around other vets."
Sully then handed him a card with an address on it and said, "stop by whenever you like we'd be more than happy to chill with you."
Finally, Aiden looked at his watch and realized it was already 2 in the morning.
"Well, I got to head out I work in a couple hours and know this headache will be the death of me if I don't get some sleep" Aiden chuckled paying off the bar tab.
The other veterans laughed and told Aiden to take care for the night and Aiden started to walk home.
As he walked, he noticed a gorgeous lady with vibrant Jade eyes with black markings, her skin as pale as snow yet unblemished, with long red hair that went down to her knees. In the back of Aiden's mind, he swore the hair was moving almost like magic was causing it to float and wave around. The woman was dressed elegantly, in a long black dress, thigh high fishnet stockings a short black jacket with studded silver spikes, and a pair of spiked latex boots. The woman was the definition of a dominatrix, Aiden chuckled to himself remembering the time one of his men got seduced by such a woman while they were on base in Germany.
The woman seemed to noticed Aiden's staring and smiled softly before blowing Aiden a kiss.
Aiden also noticed the lady was being followed by some unruly looking people. Aiden worried for the woman followed the men seeing where they would go or what they would do. It might have been a hunch, but Aiden believed these men might try to steal from her and sure enough he was right as suddenly one of the men bolted at the woman pulling out a gun.
This seemed to catch the woman off guard as the man shouted, "okay bitch come quietly with us and don't make a sound."
The look of shock in the woman's eyes was enough to trigger Aiden's fight or flight response as he rushed the two men and said, "oi leave her alone!" grabbing the gun out of the guy's hand and hitting him in the face with his elbow.
The other man pulled out a Knife and Aiden simply raised the gun and said, "stand down, now".
Aiden then proceeded to beat up the two guys leaving them unconscious.
After that was all said and done, Aiden walked up to the lady and said, "you okay Miss?"
The lady smiled taking a feathered fan with intricate markings out of her small person and unfolding it in front of her face, "ara ara, I thank you kind sir if you hadn't been there to protect me who knows what kind of unspeakable things those men would have done to me, but why help me out?"
Aiden chuckled and said, "as a former navy man I guess you can say it's a habit of mine to protect everyone, someone's got to be the good guy in this world full of bad am I right?"
The lady giggled and said, "oh so your ex-military, I thank you personally for your service to the world, tell me what your name is?"
Aiden smiled and held out his hand and said, "the names Aiden Kurusu Ma'am, if I may ask, what is yours?"
The lady giggled and said, "they call me many names Aiden…but you can call me Lilith, only those I deem worthy are allowed to call me by my true name and I think after you saved my life, I would give you that honor."
Aiden chuckled and said, "I would offer you a drink but…I think it's a little too late for that so instead mind if I walk you home for the night?"
Lilith smiled and said, "I would be okay with that."
Together the two of them walked to Lilith's home soon finding out that they both shared a love for ancient history with Lilith being very keen on mostly Germany, France, and Japan's history to the point where it even left Aiden speechless. She was smart as hell and Aiden could respect that. Soon though they made it to Lilith's apartment and Aiden looked at her and said, "well here we are, I hope you have a nice night Lilith"
Lilith smiled and said, "it would be rude to leave you without a gift, wait right there I'll be right back."
Lilith soon returned with a napkin with her phone number and a kiss on it and said, "if you're ever looking for a fun time or someone to hang out with just give me a call my dark knight~" before giving Aiden a hug and muttering something in German.
Aiden didn't think anything of it and put the napkin in his bag and said, "thank you, I'll keep that in mind I hope you have a nice night" before returning the hug and parting ways with Lilith.
The next day Aiden was stuck at MON HQ doing paperwork when he started to feel an itching sensation form on his neck. Thinking it was just a mosquito he continued working till he noticed a glow. Reaching around to Manako's desk he grabbed the small compact mirror she used for makeup and examined his neck. When he held up the mirror, he noticed a violet heart with intricate lines all over it was on his neck. This was new as the only tattoo Aiden had was his Navy SEAL tattoo on his left arm.
Tio who had been walking by eating some sweets noticed Aiden's confused look and said, "Hey, Aiden, what's going on?"
Aiden furrowed his brow and showed Tio the tattoo and said, "Tio, check this out. This tattoo... It just appeared out of nowhere. I have no idea how it got there."
Tio leaned in a bit closer making Aiden blush as he realized Tio isn't wearing a bra, "Whoa! That's quite the mark you've got there. It looks so gothic and intricate. Is it a new war tattoo? Did you join some secret society without telling us?"
Aiden shook his head and said, "No, Tio, nothing like that. I didn't get this tattoo intentionally. It just showed up out of nowhere."
Agent Smith had just walked in to give the morning briefing when she caught the sight of Aiden's new tattoo, "Aiden, who gave you that mark!"
Aiden looked up at Agent Smith, surprised by her reaction. "You know something about this Smith?"
Agent Smith nodded grimly and said, "This tattoo, Aiden... It's the symbol of Baphomet, demihumans associated with various occult traditions. This one in particular represents the union of opposites, the balance of light and dark, masculine and feminine. In simple terms…someone's marked you as their lover"
Aiden's eyes widened in surprise," Baphomet? That's... unexpected. But what does it mean that I have this tattoo?"
Agent Smith sighed a bit taking a sip of her coffee, "It's not a tattoo one acquires lightly, Aiden. To have the mark of Baphomet means that you are considered a Baphomet's lover."
Aiden and Smith then headed to the records room to look through the security footage from last night to see if they could find out when the mark first showed up starting from that morning. It was a long process with Tio having to bring many cups of coffee for the two. If this was a demihuman they had to figure out who and more importantly if the Baphomet was hostile. Nearly 4 hours later they finally came across it.
Aiden leaned forward in his chair and said, "Wait a minute... Look here, Smith. This is the night."
Aiden fast forwarded the tape of the lady getting robbed and saw after she had given him a hug as she moved her hand the mark showed up and then disappeared.
Aiden leaned back and said, "That's the exact moment when I felt that strange sensation on my neck."
Agent Smith's eyebrow raised in shock as she turned to Aiden and said, "Aiden, I think I know what happened. Lilith, the one you saved that night, she is a Baphomet."
Aiden raised an eyebrow in surprise, "really? How can you tell you know other than the fact she gave me the mark"
Agent Smith gave a nod, "Baphomet's are known to conceal their true identities, blending into human society. When they find someone they like and want to be closer too they mark them so other demons know not to touch them, it's because of this that they have a special exception in the bill which gives them the ability to choose who they want for their homestay, and quite frankly Aiden your stuck with one of the oldest Baphomet's cause according to Lilith's own accounts she's been around since the dark ages"
Aiden scratched the mark on his neck knowing he had to make the call because if Lilith had marked him, it meant she had to come in a fill the homestay papers to stay with him so she didn't get deported.
Pulling out the napkin Lilith had given him last night with her number and a lipstick mark on it Aiden made the call.
Lilith giggled and said, "Hello~ Who might this be?" in a playful tone.
Aiden stuttered a bit and said, "Hey, Lilith. It's Aiden. We met last night remember?"
Lilith purred happily and said, "Oh, Aiden! How delightful to hear from you. What can I do for you, handsome?"
Aiden chuckled softly, appreciating Lilith's playful nature, "Well, Lilith, I wanted to talk to you about something important. I saw your mark."
Lilith giggled and said, "I was wondering when you would notice lover boy~ so what time do you want me over."
Aiden chuckled and said, "actually I was wondering if you could come down to MON HQ to fill out your homestay papers so you can live with me a couple girls I have as part of my monster exchange program and my brother with his harem."
Lilith purred happily and said, "anything for you my little boytoy, hmmm no I think I'll call you my dark knight from now on. But are you sure you can handle having me as your homestay guest? I can be quite... mischievous."
Aiden grinned, amused by Lilith's flirtatious tone, "Mischievous or not, I think I can handle it. Besides, I've always got my hands full with this lively bunch at home."
Lilith purred again and said, "Well, if you're up for the challenge, darling, I'd be more than happy to accept your offer. I'll be down in a bit."
Aiden replied saying, "I won't be there to help you however because I have to head home and get everything ready for you, so when you're all done just drop on by the house"
Lilith giggled and said, "Sounds delightful! I can't wait to see you again, Aiden. I'll be there in a jiffy. Oh, and maybe I'll bring a little surprise for you~ hope you like chains and whips~"
Aiden laughs softly, anticipating the unpredictable nature of Lilith's surprises, "I'll be looking forward to it, Lilith. See you soon."
Aiden chuckled and when he hung up he was met with the smug glances from Agent Smith and the girls of MON.
"what's with that look?" Aiden asked.
Dramatically Tio pretended to faint and mimic Lilith as she said, "anything for you my little boytoy, hmmm no I think I'll call you my dark knight from now on. But are you sure you can handle having me as your homestay guest? I can be quite... mischievous."
And as if on cue Zombina started to mimic Aiden as she pretended to pick up Tio and said, "Mischievous or not, I think I can handle it. Besides, I've always got my hands full with this lively bunch at home." Causing the group to break out into laughter.
Aiden laughed too and said, "heyyy it's not like that."
Agent Smith chuckled and said, "just remember Aiden, use protection~"
Aiden chuckled and said, "okay Mom" before laughing hardily.
As soon as Aiden got back home, he walked into the kitchen and was confused to find that the only one home was Kiyomi who was on the couch playing Mortal Kombat.
"yo Kiyo where is everyone" Aiden asked curiously.
Kiyomi paused her game and said, "oh most of them went to either their part time jobs or to the gym to burn off some calories, if you're looking for your brother though he went to the park with Suu and Papi, something about meeting a dryad, what are you doing home so early?"
Aiden chuckled and said, "decided to come home a bit early to get things ready for another new homestay" before sitting down with Kiyomi who looked at Aiden with a raised eyebrow.
"oooh who did you seduce this time Honey bear" Kiyomi chuckled before grabbing a soda off the coffee table in front of her and taking a sip.
"a Baphomet going by the name of Lilith Von Heisenberg" Aiden said reaching for a soda as well and then saying, "mind if I play with you too?"
This shocked Kiyomi who said, "wait, wait, wait Lilith Von Heisenberg as in the doujin author turned video game voice actress turned Vogue supermodel Lilith Von Heisenberg the queen of fashion!"
Aiden looked confused and said, "you say that as if I should know the name."
Kiyomi nodded before rushing out of the room and returning with a huge stack of manga and said, "she was the author of Femme fatal blood-soaked goddess One of my favorite manga that got turned into a video game! She sadly retired from the whole fashion scene 12 years ago after willingly giving up the spotlight to her protégé but yeah, she is an icon for both the fashion world and she's staying here! i. am. So. Happy!"
Aiden laughed at how hyped Kiyomi was before leaning on her shoulder and saying, "just promise me you'll act nice towards her, cause well…she has me marked."
Kiyomi raised her eyebrow at this statement and said, "what do you mean marked?"
Aiden then revealed the tattoo on his neck and said, "apparently Baphomets mark the ones they love with this seal to keep other demons away, and more importantly its…well it's like a lover mark."
This shocked Kiyomi who looked at the mark and said, "God damn it Honey bear another women in our house! I mean don't get me wrong Freya and Xochitl are…. cool and I am happy to know them, but yet another woman!"
Aiden Laughed a bit and said, "yeah, yeah I know Kiyomi but you must be excited because your idol is going to be living with us"
Kiyomi sighed and said, "I know and that's why I am not as mad…but you do know Xochitl and Freya will be jealous right?"
Aiden chuckled and said, "I have a feeling they'll come around as well."
Kiyomi rolled her eyes and smiled saying, "you're lucky you're too lovable to stay mad at".
Aiden grinned as he laid his head on Kiyomi's lap and said, "hehehe I'm lucky to have such understanding women like you guys in my life."
Kiyomi rolled her eyes again and started to rub Aiden's head saying, "such a goofball"
Later on, Aiden informed the others about the fact a Baphomet would be moving in with them and Lala looked a little concerned.
"Lilith isn't just some normal Baphomet Aiden, she's an Elder Baphomet, the epitome of ancient Lust and Seduction not like a succubus who is all about sex but…well she represents elegant seduction, it's harder to explain but yeah she's an elder Baphomet so I hope you know what you're getting yourself into" Lala said a bit worried.
Kimihito chuckled and said, "seems like someone has a thing for older women."
Aiden gave a slight chuckle and said, "oi don't go painting me in that kind of light brother, it doesn't look good on me."
The doorbell then rang, and Aiden rushed over to see it was Lilith standing outside in the same outfit she wore when they first met along with the addition of a black studded pillbox hat.
Aiden then opened the door with a smile and said, "glad to see you again Lilith but…do you mind showing your true form? We all know you're an elder Baphomet."
Lilith Smiled saying, "well I guess there is no use now hiding my true form~ not around you my lovable dark knight."
Lilith then took off her pillbox hat and ran her long fingers through her hair, as she did a set of long curled horns started to form from the back of her head curling down and around her ears, as the horns materialize the parts closer to the skull start to envelop in flams a bit leaving intricate marks made of gold as the fires die. A second set of horns then forms along her forehead forming almost a crown of sorts with tips pointing upwards, and just like the first set of horns, these horn catch fire and leaving golden marks all along the horns this time though it was the entire horns. Lilith smiled and stretched out a bit letting a set of beautiful black wings as dark as ebony unfurl from her back.
Lilith smiled pulling out her feathered fan and saying, "well my dark knight your Gräfin der Finsternis is here it's okay to blush in my presence most men would, but I would only acknowledge you."
Aiden smiled giving Lilith a hug and said, "I'm glad you were able to find the house Lilith."
Lilith pulled out her fan and opened it in front of her smiling and said, "did you forget my dark knight we are connected through that mark, so I know wherever you go almost like a gps"
Aiden laughed and said, "well I'm sure the others would love to meet you."
Lilith followed Aiden into the house into the living room where the girls from kimihito's harem and Aiden's growing harem were waiting.
Aiden smiled and said, "ladies and brother I'd like to you to meet the newest member of our growing family, this is Lilith."
Lilith dramatically posed with her feathered fan in front of her face and said, "ara ara isn't this a fine gathering of people I'm glad that my dark knight is surrounded by such wonderful people, I am Lilith Von Heisenberg first and last of my name, originally I am from Germany but immigrated here to Japan sometime during the feudal era"
Kiyomi stared a bit before walking up and kneeling in front of Lilith saying, "it is an honor to have you in our home I am one of your biggest fans from when you used to voice act in my favorite video games and anime and when you were the number one fashion icon for lounge wear!"
Lilith giggled before patting Kiyomi on the head, "oh~ well it's so nice to meet a fan after so long, it's been a long time since a fan has recognized me."
Kiyomi then rushed to her room and rushed back with a manga and said, "can- can I get your autograph."
Lilith raised her eyebrow and said, "is- is this the special edition Femme fatal blood-soaked goddess doujin! Only 10 of these were ever produced!"
Kiyomi blushed a bit and said, "w-well I really liked your work when you were a mangaka and when you went into voice acting, I fell for your voice acting and then your lounge wear fashion."
Lilith chuckled and said, "well I am glad I could create something you loved" before signing the manga and giving it back to Kiyomi who squealed and ran away.
Lilith shrugged nonchalantly, relishing the reactions she was getting. "Well, Aiden and I have a special connection. One sacred to all Baphomets, I doubt a feathered serpent would get a connection as deep as ours."
Kiyomi came back and was a bit curious, "Special connection, huh? What's so special about it?"
Lilith's grin widened, and she leaned in a little closer to Aiden, wrapping her arm and leg around him. "Oh, just the way he looks at me and makes me feel. It's like we've known each other for ages."
Rachnera noticed Lilith's playful nature and muttered, "oooh I like this girl I wonder if she likes being tied up…or if she likes to tie people up."
Freya's jealousy flared up, and she stepped forward, trying to maintain her composure. "You barely know him! Don't act like you're so close to him already."
Lilith chuckled softly, enjoying the banter. "Oh, and what's this a simple Fenrir jealous of her Alpha's growing harem there's no harm in getting to know him better, right?" before elegantly turning Aiden's head towards hers and going in for a kiss.
Xochitl's frustration was evident in her voice as she used her tail to pull Aiden from Lilith. "And you think you're the one who's going to get to know him better than the rest of us?"
Lilith feigned innocence, batting her eyelashes playfully. "Oh, I didn't say that. I just think we have a special connection, that's all."
Aiden, sensing the tension, decided to interject. "Come on, girls, there's no need to be jealous. Lilith is welcome here, just like all of you."
Lilith's eyes sparkled mischievously as she added, "Exactly! So let's all get along and make this household even more fun."
Freya, Xochitl, and Kiyomi exchanged glances, still feeling a little uneasy about Lilith's sudden arrival. However, they knew they couldn't push her away, not when Aiden was fine with her staying.
Freya sighed, trying to be more accepting. "Fine, but don't think you've won us over just yet."
Xochitl nodded in agreement. "Yeah, we'll be keeping an eye on you."
Kiyomi smirked, unable to resist the challenge. "You won't get to honey bear that easily."
Lilith chuckled, undeterred by their jealousy. "Oh, believe me, I don't plan to. But let's see who my dark knight spends more time within the end." Before grabbing Aiden and hugging him, stuffing his head between her boobs.
At this point Aiden was used to this by now so he was able to hold his breath while being smothered causing Kimihito to start laughing.
"hahaha man its funny to see someone else get strangled!" Kimihito laughed.
Flipping of Kimihito Aiden said, "your just jealous you have near death experiences when this happens to you."
Kimihito couldn't stop laughing and said, "oh god I can't breathe I think im gonna pass out!" before falling over laughing.
Pulling himself away from Lilith Aiden walked over to his brother and bopped him on the head and said, "oi don't go being an Ass brother."
After that nights dinner Aiden went back to his room to not only check to see if Miia's god awful cooking had poisoned him but to also get some work done. Agent Smith had sent Aiden a couple emails about rare species of demihumans that had been seen across the world and wondered if Aiden had ever cam across them in the field.
As a recon SEAL It was Aiden's job to scout out not only the target but also possible allies for missions so that included Demihumans civilizations that could be considered friendly. A couple of the species Agent Smith listed did stand out to Aiden.
Muttering to himself Aiden said, "heres a species you don't see every day, an electric eel mermaid subspecies" looking over the file of a girl with long orange hair, and instead of legs she had a long orange eel like body.
Leaning back in his seat Aiden recounted he came across a group of electric eel mermaids in the Belgian Congo they were dangerous but also docile.
"hmmm people like them could benefit society but if I remember correctly they had to wear a lot of rubber clothings due to their electricity" Aiden remembered how he nearly went into cardiac arrest while on a mission and a hug from an electric eel jumpstarted his heart.
"They could be good for the cultural exchange, but they'd have to wear something rubber around their lower bodies and some sort of insulator around their upper bodies but other than that I think they would be perfect" Aiden muttered sending the email to smith approving them for the cultural exchange.
As Aiden sat in his desk chair looking at some files Smith sent him, he started to feel some tense pain in his shoulders and back and started to move around a bit trying to relax a bit.
"Feeling a bit tense my dear dark knight?" Lilith Purred in Aiden's ear.
This startled Aiden a bit as he jumped and looked back at Lilith.
"Jesus Christ you nearly gave me a heart attack!" Aiden shouted.
Lilith giggled and said, "hehehe sorry about that~ but still you look tense shall I help you out."
Aiden nodded and said, "sure, I'd love that."
Lilith then had Aiden lay down on a mat and took his shirt off before massaging his back.
"Boy I can feel how tense your muscles are! Have you ever gotten a massage?" Lilith said in concern.
Aiden shook his head no and said, "no…as a recon specialist I had to take naps in some of the most uncomfortable and roughest of areas." Remembering how he had slept on a pile of rocks once and in a tree on multiple occasions behind enemy lines.
Aiden then heard some of his bone cracked and a bit startled he said, "oi, oi, oi what are you doing!"
Lilith giggled and said, "it's okay my dear dark knight all I'm doing is adding in a bit of chiropractor bone cracking, you have more than just tense muscles you have tense bones too…this is a bit concerning so you just lay your head down and let your dear Gräfin der Finsternis help you out."
Aiden trusted Lilith and allowed her to work her magic cracking bones and relieving muscles that had never felt so….at peace. It was like the scars and stress of his pass was slowly disappearing with each muscle and Joint Lilith cracked and massaged.
Lilith then giggled and started massaging Aiden's prosthetic giggling and saying, "boy you're so tense here! It's like metal! Cold to the touch and hard to move! Are you sure you don't have rigor mortis?"
Aiden laughed a bit and said, "very funny Lilith."
Lilith then picked Aiden up and said, "so how do you feel?"
Aiden Smiled rotating his shoulders nicely for the first time in a long time and said, "this- this feels good! Thank you, Lilith."
Lilith then looked outside Aiden's window and said, "it's almost night, you should get some sleep."
Aiden chuckled and said, "wanna come lay in bed with me?"
Lilith giggled and said, "oh you tease~ I would but I still have to talk with my old landlord about moving my personal belongings from my old apartment out to here and pay him back in full for illegally hosting a demihuman, though if I remember correctly Baphomet's had special privileges, right?"
Unsure of the answer Aiden went to his computer and looked it up and said, "yeah, I mean it would be wise to pay him in full for the lease and what not but he's not gonna get in trouble for hosting a Baphomet, if it were a demihuman without special needs such as a lamia or harpy you'd have to pay him double but you should be good"
Aiden then felt his head get turned and soon felt his lips get kissed by Lilith. Aiden closed his eyes slowly and wrapped his arms around Lilith and pulled her into a hug.
Smiling, Aiden got out of his chair picking up Lilith and bringing her to bed where the two of them cuddled and fell asleep.
