<~> Chapter 123It took a while to calm Mimi down now that she was out in the open again but eventually she quieted down and sat in Nadia's p. After the transformation the mousekin had gained some height and with Mimi being shorter, she fit perfectly in the mouse girl's p. Nadia for her part seemed quite happy and ed her arms around the naked Mimi, careful not to touch her too intimately, yet.

  Raya was lookiless, I was about to ask her about it before she suddenly blurted out, "I want to go ! You included me because you were going to ask me tht?"

  Oe gave her an appraising look. "Are you sure Raya? This seems like a big ge."

  Raya nodded. "I'm sure. We... This is what we were talking about on the rooftop, isn't it? When you asked me if I would ge them?"

  I smiled. "Looks like you don't o wait for a crazy flesh mage after all."

  Her rge paws tightened before she jumped up and ed her arms around me, pullio a tight hug. I held her there for what felt like a whole minute before she pulled away.

  Nadia raised her hand. "If yonna do it, sit down on the couch first. Trust me, it's intense." Bel nodded in agreement.

  Raya gulped and nodded. before sitting back down on the couch across from me.

  "Are you ready for this?" I asked her.

  She closed her eyes and nodded. "Yes, I'm ready."

  I nodded. "Go ahead and picture your ideal self, then take the oath."

  Raya went quiet for a short time before speaking, "I swear to not knowingly wainst you, I wish to bee a succubi... your family."

  Anasmic scream filled the room as Raya's body began to ge. I couldn't help but be curious and look at Raya's hands, they shrunk down to that of a normal beastkin's. Her hands retained some of the beast-like qualities, like fur and paw pads, but they shifted into a much more humanoid and notably dexterous form. Her hips also widened pretty signifitly and her breasts went from the size es to the size of taloupes, giving her a buxom hss look. Just like Nadia, her other features were enhanced and she lost all of the small blemishes she once had. Unlike Nadia, her face maintained most of its look, making her much mnizable despite the rest of the drastic ges. What really caught me off guard though was the presence of two additional ails for a total of three, making her look... a lot like the sign oside of the brothel.

  Raya stretched up with a sexy groan. "That felt amazing!" She ced her fingers and gave a heartfelt smile that brought me back to the beautiful smile I saw when we were on the roof together.

  She opened and closed her hands again, then shifted them into a recreation of her old paws. She flexed her cws and was even able to trol how blunted or sharp they were now.

  "You're pretty skilled at that already," I said, bringing her out of her thoughts.

  She gri me. "Thanks! The shift es naturally since I am so familiar with how they used to be. I wao see if I had the option to go back to them if I wao." Her rge paws shifted bato normal hands again. "They feel a little weak though, like I don't know how to move them right."

  Bel got up and sat o her. "You probably don't, it might take some getting used to. It did for me."

  She smiled while looking down at them. "I'm sure they will feel natural in no time."

  I felt the emotions from our new e brush against me and her eyes jumped to mine when she felt it too. I felt curiosity, probing, i, flow through the bond as she looked at me.

  I looked down at her tails, "Looks like you grew a few more tails, how do they feel?"

  She looked down, perhaps notig them for the first time. She stood up and her ails gracefully flowed behiheiffened up and awkwardly started to move indepely from each other.

  "Oh, this is strange. I know how to move the new ohey're just like my old tail, but it feels weird to trol all of them separately..." She looked over to Bel. "Is this how it felt for you?"

  Bel shook her head. "No, I never used to have a tail or even mobile ears." She gripped the base of her ears to demonstrate, they twitched cutely. "At first I couldn't trol them at all, only by instinct. Eventually, my trol of them grew as I got used to how it felt."

  Oe leaned ba the coud eyed Raya up and down. "How does it feel? The ges?"

  Raya looked over at the naga woman with a bright smile. "I feel great! Things feel a bit strahough. I'm not used to my body and how it's ged yet. I feel a bit wobbly on my feet, like I'm off bance. But the stra ge is actually my e to the others, I bsp;feel them in a way that I 't expin!"

  Now that she was focused on the bond I could feel her looking over the other succubi in the room. It was like I could feel the attention on Bel or myself. The bond has beeing stroely, more clear, more uandable by the day. But it wasn't until Raya joihat I could see it from the outside again. I've been growing into it little by little. Even though I've made more extensive use of it with Mimi tely I ook a step back to sider how... powerful and unique of a e it was. As if to punctuate that, my first rea was to let the feeling flow through the bond ahe other succubi ected to me now feel what I was feeling.

  I shivered, I hadn't realized until now how natural this type of unicatio.

  [Bonded unication has increased from level 5 to level 6]

  Another level so soon. I wonder if this new perspective gave me more insight into the ability. Perhaps I've focused so mu the practical side of my skills that I haven't examihe knowledge and philosophical side of them as much. Those are thoughts for ter though, for now, I brought my attention back to the present.

  Oe was looking over Raya closer now, she was ag like a mother hen which was a funny thought in its ht. Raya looked bright and happy and that transted into her charismatic presence. Before she retty, don't get me wrong, but now she was a bombshell and her down-to-earth easygoing attitude was all the more attractive on her new form. She was simultaneously beautiful and approachable at the same time. She's going to break some hearts, no doubt about it.

  I g Grace who had been quietly writing something on a notebook she had handy, her brow was furrowed, deep in thought. Curious I stepped closer to her and she looked up at me. She smiled and tilted the notebook to give me a look. Names.

  "I am thinking through everyone who might be ied, people who fit your criteria. Those who enjoy their life here, the ohat love sex maybe a little too much... and those who want a e, family."

  I looked at the list and smiled. "I'm gd you're putting that much thought into this, it's important to me."

  She nodded. "It is important to me too. This kind of thing, this kind of ge. It could ge everything for us. Not just the food situation... You are a lot here."

  "Us?" I asked.

  She stiffened a bit. "Yes. The brothel, the girls... me. It is... a lot to take in."

  "You're sidering the offer as well?" I asked.

  She tapped her quill gently against the paper, putting together her thoughts. "It is... tempting for me, what you are but... I don't know yet. I still have things to sider."

  "sider it an open offer. I won't push you iher dire, it's not a decision to take lightly."

  She smiled, a hint of relief came through her otherwise calm expression. "Thank you Lilith. I... appreciate the time to sider things."

  "Of course. Please take your time with your decision."

  I looked back at the remaining people in the room. The twialking with Nadia and Mimi, still seated on the mousekin's p. Bel and Silva were talking with Oe and Raya, Oe seems to have calmed down signifitly since she was first fussing over Raya's transformation.

  "Lilith, is this offer open to everyone who lives and works at the Brothel?"

  I turo look back at Grace. "Anyone who would be willing to take the oath or could be trusted not to tell anyone about it. ...I may choose not to make the offer if I don't think they're a good person."

  I thought about Karma. None of the people I've e across in the brothel has had ive karma, I just hadn't even thought about it because of that. ...Not that I'm pining but lots of people sider being a prostitute a bad thing. It doesn't seem to be a sideration in the Karma I see at all. Who makes the rules?

  Grace started to tinue and it brought me out of my thoughts. "What about outside the brothel? I have a brother... would he be allowed the offer as well?"

  I furrowed my brows. "I'm... not sure? I actually... don't know how it would affect a man." I g Bel for a moment, she had physically been a man before, eve some of the parts, but now she wasn't. Could a man even bee a Succubus? Would they bee an incubus instead? Would it force them to bee a erhaps like Bel, or would it not work at all?

  She hesitated. "What do you mean? Is the invitation only open to women?"

  I shook my head. "It's not that it's... I'm not sure what would happen. Where I'm from succubi are a myth and they're all women. There is something simir, an incubus, essentially a male terpart to the succubus. But I don't know if they t as the same thing or if... the transformation would always turn a man into a woman instead."

  "I see. ...if he were willing to take the risk, would the offer still be open?" she asked.

  I looked up at the ceiling. Would it? If he khe risks would that bother me? It might be good to know but experimenting with that sort of thing didn't feel right. What if it made him feel like Bel had felt before? Trapped in a body he didn't want? Still though, it would be his choice. I think I could respect that.

  I looked back at Grace. "If he really wants to test it then sure, it would be his choiake. But I'll o make sure he uands the risks and he will still have to accept what the ge will mean. If the ge forces him to bee a woman, he would still have to have sex to survive. Would something like this be worth the risk for him?"

  Grace's face hardened. "He was born frail as sick easily... It's why I inally got into this business in the first pce. I don't know what he would choose but... I want to offer him the choice if you allow it."

  A sigh left my lips. "I uand. You give him the offer, assuming you trust him not to share the information with others. If he is willing to take the risk, we try it, but only if I feel he adequately uands the risks."

  She smiled. "Thank you Lilith. This talk makes me trust you all the more. I'll talk with him and sider it for myself as well. For now, I'll get back to this list."

  "Sounds good," I said with a wry smile.

  I sat back down on the couch. I didn't want to think this way, because just thinking about it this way might turn my thoughts into reality, but I had a pretty strong idea of how it would go. Perhaps it just wouldn't work at all, I would prefer that I think. But I had to be truthful with myself, I don't think succubi and incubi are the same thing. I don't think my power would turn him into an incubus, it doesn't feel like two names for the same thing or some kind of sexual dimorphism. I have a feeling they are two different things. I will have to make that clear when it es to it but I will still allow him the choice. It's not my choiake, it should be his.
