Still, there was something so surreal about seeing a bunch of beat-up old love shacks out in the middle of the Nevada desert, just next to the shimmering lights of Sin City. Lola finally rolled to a stop in front of a four-story building on the far outskirts of town that had brown brick siding and looked like it had been abandoned for years.
“This will be the perfect spot to take on Earl,” I said as I got out of the yellow sedan. “A piece of filth like him deserves to die in a shithole like this!”
“We should hurry. Earl will be back in less than twelve hours,” Cupi reminded me.
“I personally can’t wait,” Todd shrugged. “He only got to see a small dose of my karate expertise. I’m gonna go all crouching dragon on him this time!”
I rolled my eyes as Todd spread his legs apart in a fighting stance and let out a loud “waaaaa” as he lowered his fists. The imp had spirit, that was for sure, but if we didn’t get these traps set up, I didn’t know if even my newfound powers would be enough to save us.
We walked across the sidewalk and approached the front of the decrepit building.
“It’s locked, of course,” I said after I tried the door. “I’m going to kick it dow--”
“Aren’t you forgetting something?” Liby interrupted me.
“Oh,” I chuckled. “Yeah, I forgot I have Hellfire powers.” I glanced at the door, but then I looked up and saw that one of the large windows on the third floor was broken.
“Well, handsome, how are you going to get us inside?” Cupi winked at me.
“I’ve only ever teleported Todd before,” I said.
“Wait, what?” my friend asked. “No you didn’t.”
“Yeah,” I laughed.
“Uhh no,” Todd sighed. “Bro, I would totally remember something as awesome as you teleporting me. I have a flawless memory for awesome stuff like that.”
“You were super stoned,” I said as I stared at him.
“Oh, no doubt. No doubt.” He laughed.
“This could be a good way to test your teleporting power,” Cupi said with a shrug of her slender shoulders.
“I could also lift us up through the window,” I said as I pointed up.
“Or you could just explode-er-ate the door,” Todd said.
“All three options can work,” Cupi said.
“I’ll try the teleport,” I said. “Give me a second to focus.”
Now that the three of us had strengthened our connection, I only had to think briefly about what made me disgusted and jealous. Given our current situation, it didn’t take much effort to think of something. Earl’s slimy mug appeared in my head, smiling as he belittled me in front of my succubi. This asshole wanted to take away the greatest things that had ever happened to me and turn them back into little more than high-end demonic escorts. The green flame burned bright around the four of our bodies as I pictured the inside of the building.
The next thing I knew, we were in a pitch-black building. I thought back to the connection to fuel my passion, and a blaze of red fire illuminated the room. This place most likely had been a convenience store back in the day. There were shelves everywhere filled with jars of now-molded food and canned goods that wore expiration dates from the fifties. There was a large oak counter that stretched all the way around the building in a u-shape, and an old-fashioned cash register at the bottom of the shape.
“This place looks like it was ripped straight out of a western movie,” Todd commented as he climbed up on a shelf and grabbed a can of beans.
“You’re not seriously going to eat that, are you?” I asked in disbelief.
“I have a gut of steel now,” he replied as opened the can with his dagger-like claws. “So, yes, I am going to eat them.”
He grinned at me as he pried open the top part of the can with his claws and dumped the contents into his gullet. With a smack of his lips, he tossed the can aside and went for another one, consuming about five cans of beans before he finally got full. Todd sat down and patted his belly, satisfied.
“Those were totally still good, man. You want to try some?” he asked as he reached for another can.
“I think I’m good,” I retorted. “I’d prefer not to spend the entire night trying not to shit my guts out.”
“Your loss,” he shrugged as he scurried into the other room.
“Cupi,” I said as I turned to the blonde succubus. “What’s our next move? You’re the expert here.”
“We will need to set up multiple demon traps all around this place.” She motioned with her hands outstretched. “He’s going to expect us to fight back, but he can’t win a war of attrition. Earl’s not that high up the totem pole.”
“Can’t Jacob just take Earl to the shadow world and leave him there with all the shadow people?” Todd asked.
“No!” Cupi and Liby hissed at Todd.
“The Shadow World is not something to be toyed with, Todd.” Cupi continued. “Even we demons don’t know the full extent of what those things that inhabit it are capable of. It’s too risky. Between the four of us, we are more than capable of handling one low-level demon here on Earth Realm.”
“Gotcha,” Todd said as he nodded slowly. Then he turned to me and winked. “We definitely aren’t ever going to use the shadow world. Like… ever. Cause no way that’s bueno. For sure. You hear that, Jacob? No shadow world. It’s super dangerous and even demons are afraid of it. Don’t even think about it. Terrible idea, bro.”
“I hear you, Todd,” I said as I rolled my eyes.
“Good,” the imp said. “Cause I just want to make sure you understand how dangerous and powerful it is, and like… no one can use it but you it sounds like, so don’t even think about using it on Earl.”
“See?” Cupi said as she patted the imp’s head. “Your friend understands.”
“I totally do,” Todd said as he held his hand up to his face so my girlfriends couldn’t see him wink at me again.
“That brings up a good point,” I sighed as I realized my two girlfriends had no idea that Todd was totally full of shit. “Why doesn’t Earl just bring in all of his other succubi to kill us? He’s got five more.”
“I can answer that one!” Liby bounced up and down with her hand raised. “He thinks that me and my sister here will eventually give in and cower when he unleashes his full wrath. Once it happens, he believes you and Todd will be child’s play to dispose of.”
“Or maybe he’s afraid that the other succubi will fall for Jacob like we did,” Cupi added.
“I mean, it took some persuasion to get you to stay…” I said with a sly smile, and Cupiditas and Libidine both returned the grin.
“Thankfully, Earl is too foolish to realize that we’ve already made our decision,” Cupi continued. “We’re with you until the end. Whether that is today or not is up to us.”
“Then let’s get to work,” I said. “Todd, you are our resident protective circle expert. Can you--”
“Also sexy,” he interrupted.
“Yeah,” I replied, “but can you draw those Key of Solomon runes we went over in the middle of--”
“Also well-endowed,” he interrupted again.
“Dude,” I sighed.
“I know,” he laughed. “I’ll focus on etching out those rune circles. You’ll want one on each door?”
“I was thinking you could put one right out in the open where Earl can see it.”
“Uh, doesn’t that kind of defeat the whole purpose setting up a surprise trap?” Todd asked as he scratched his head with a stubby finger.
“Exactly,” I nodded. “We want him to think we’re complete idiots. That way he’ll walk right into the real trap.”
“I can see it now.” Cupi put her hands on her hips and changed the pitch of her voice to mock her pimp. “He’ll waltz in here with his stupid slicked-back hair and say something like ‘You’ll have to try harder than that, Mr. Ralston’ or ‘Did you really think I, the servant of Azazel, would fall for such a primitive trap?’ He’s
so far up his own ass that I don’t know how he breathes without spewing shit everywhere.”
“Look at that!” Todd giggled. “Cupi is a regular comedian over here. Can you do Morgan Freeman?”
One look from the succubi told us that she had no idea who that was, so Todd shrugged and got to work with a piece of chalk. It took him no time at all to create the large white protective circle in between the u-shaped counter of the room. The thing must have been at least three or four feet wide in diameter. There was no way Earl was going to miss this.
“Let’s scratch some into the wood.” I pointed to the inner and outer parts of the counter. “Those will be much less visible.”
“Sure thing, boss-man.” Todd saluted and then scurried over to the right side of the structure.
The imp started to use his claws to scratch a Key of Solomon onto the counter while Libidine and Cupi used a knife to create their own just on the opposite side. The imp finished his drawing first and scuttled over to Liby to help ensure that her design was perfect.
The succubus wiped her brow and once the circles were now set up and ready to go. The curvy, dark-haired woman stood up and arched her back to stretch, which made the two voluptuous breasts on her chest look even more enlarged than they already were.
“Uh--” I gulped at the sight. “Is it time to make the Witch Bottle yet?”
“I thought you’d never ask,” Cupiditas purred.
“This is my favorite part!” Libidine bounced up and down and then pranced over to my position.
“Todd, could you--” I started, but the imp threw up a hand to silence me.
“Yeah, yeah, I’ll go check out the mirror situation while you guys do your thing. The bottle is in the bag.” Todd laughed as he passed through the doorway.
As soon as my friend was gone, Cupi dropped to her knees and pulled down my pants with glee while Libidine caressed my chest as she passionately kissed me. The blonde succubus used one hand to tug off her shirt and reveal the erect nipples underneath while she pleasured my member with the other. The dark-haired woman pulled away for a second to admire what her sister was doing, and she slowly reached down with her left hand to hold her sister’s chin. Cupi’s violet eyes burned intensely, and she opened her mouth and let her sister ease her forward onto my cock.
I groaned in pleasure as the blonde continued to go to lick and suck on me, and Liby grabbed my hand so she could press it onto her now exposed breast. I caressed the woman sensually, and we went back to making out. My free hand slipped down and gave Cupi’s hair a playful pull. She must have liked it because she let out a muffled moan and started going double time. Then Libidine started to kiss her way down my neck, eventually getting down on her knees to help out with the extraction process.
Strengthening our connection earlier had done much more than make us stronger with our mystical powers. It felt like the three of us were now truly one soul. We could sense each other’s feelings, which also just so happened to include our darkest fantasies and most intimate desires, and these two succubi were most certainly acting on those feelings. They continued for a few more minutes before I couldn’t take it anymore.
“I’m going to cum,” I hissed as my hips started to gyrate.
“Hmmmm,” Cupi moaned as she pushed her mouth down all way so that the tip of my penis slid against the back of her throat.
Liby was bent sideways down below her sister and she swirled her tongue around my balls frantically, and I grabbed the backs of both their heads so that I could steady myself.
It was just too much, and I groaned as I began to fill the blonde’s mouth. My orgasm seemed to last for almost a minute, and I almost couldn’t stand as the pleasure and agony both pulsed through me.
Then I felt the blonde woman suck the last of my sperm out of the tip of my cock, and she slid her mouth off me.
“How was it?” Liby asked her sister as she reached for the bottle in Todd’s pack.
“Yummm,” Cupi said as she looked up into my eyes and smirked playfully.
“I think you need to spit his cum into this bottle,” Liby said as she pulled the glass from the bag and held it out to her sister.
“Ohhh, ummm,” Cupi grimaced and then licked her lips. “I just swallowed it all.”
“Oh, you greedy bitch,” Liby laughed. “We needed that for the trap.”
“Oops. I guess we’ll just have to do it all again. Right, Jacob?” Cupi gave me a little shrug.
“You guys are exhausting,” I joked.
The two women looked absolutely radiant as they tugged their clothes back over their delicate bodies, and I somehow felt myself get hard again.
“Let us know when you’re ready for round two.” Cupi winked, and I almost asked for them to go again. Then I figured that I’d give them more cum if we worked on the runes for a few more hours so I could recover.
I pulled my pants back up while the blonde turned around, locked arms with Libidine, and then strutted back over to continue working. The succubi giggled playfully as they finished drawing the protective circles on the ground and counters, and Todd sauntered back in just as they were getting finished.
“Did you get the… uh… stuff?” he asked with an awkward tone.
“He tasted too good,” Cupi explained. “I had to swallow all of it.”
“Totally didn’t need to know that, broette,” the imp laughed. “Luckily for you, there are literally dozens of other ways to trap a demon that doesn’t involve your love juice.”
“That’s a shame.” Cupi’s eyes simmered as the words left her mouth.
Todd held up an empty bottle. “Alright, Jake, I tried to let you do this the fun way. Now we’re gonna try one of the grosser ways. Blood, hair, or nails?”
“How much are we talking here?” I nervously ran my hands through my hair as I tried to think of which option was going to be the least intrusive.
“All of it,” the imp whispered eagerly as he leaned in close to my ear.
A wild grin bared Todd’s teeth as my heart fell into my stomach. The imp stared into my eyes sadistically, but then a chuckle broke through his serious expression. Todd fell backward on the floor and laughed maniacally.
“I’m just fucking with you, bro!” He giggled. “Just give me a couple hairs, and we should be a-ok.”
I let out a sigh of relief as I reached up to pluck a few strands out of my brown locks. Then Todd swiped the piece of my DNA, tossed it in the bottle, set it down on the wooden countertop, and motioned for all of us to gather around. Once we were all in position, the imp cracked his knuckles and shook his hands in anticipation.
“Alright guys, repeat after me,” he cleared his throat as we waited with bated breath. “Day-o!”
Cupi and Libidine repeated Todd’s words, but I just sighed.
“Dayyyy-aaayyy-ooohhh!” Todd sang out.
“Dayyyy-aaayyy-ooohhh!” Cupi and Liby repeated.
“Todd,” I sighed, but there was no stopping him.
“Daylight come and me wanna go home,” the imp said as he began to shake his hips to the side like a belly dancer.
“Daylight come and me wanna go home,” the two women repeated as they began to gyrate their hips and raise their hands over their heads.
“Dude--” I started to say.
“Work all night on a drink of rum!” he said as he clapped his hands over his head. “Daylight come and me wanna go home.”
“Work all night on a drink of--”
“Bro!” I interrupted the girls. “Seriously?”
“Come on, you know it was funny!” He giggled. “But seriously, repeat after me this time, or it won’t work. For reals this time.”
Todd outstretched his tiny mitts for us to grab. The four of us formed a circle around the bottle and closed our eyes as we awaited the next step. Then the imp lowered his head and began to hum.
“Hac tum praetoria nave benedicat Caelo, quia est de mala destinarat purgandis mentibus praepositam,” he chanted, and the three of us
echoed his words.
The hair inside the bottle rose up as if suspended by an invisible wire and glowed a bright bronze. A low hum echoed from within the vessel, and as the sound grew more intense, the glass began to vibrate, and I worried that it was going to shatter into a million pieces. The bottle itself began to shine brightly with a blue light. The hair fluttered down into the bottom of its glass case, and the room grew silent. Todd’s spell was completed.
“Now the question is how are we going to get Earl to fall for an enchanted bottle?” Cupiditas questioned.
“We won’t have to.” I corrected the blonde as I summoned a green flame and transported the vessel from the table into my hand. “I just need to know its location, and then I can bring it to him.”
“What about the mirror trap?” Cupiditas turned to Todd. “Did you find anything while we were--”
“Yes!” Todd could barely contain his excitement. “There’s two bathrooms down the hall, and they both have a wall mirror. Let’s go smash some shit!”
Libidine and I ventured into the first restroom while Todd and Cupi went after the mirror in the other. My friend was right, there was definitely a full wall mirror in here. But it had to be at least twenty years old, and who knows when it was last cleaned. The image of the succubus and I that stared back at us was distorted by cracks, smudges, and splatters of grime that I didn’t even want to consider identifying, so I walked over to a piece of baby blue tile that had come loose from the floor and picked it up.
“You might wanna stand back,” I warned Liby as I pulled back.
The succubus stepped to the far left, and I heaved my arm forward. The piece of tile smashed into the lower right part of the large mirror and sent pieces of reflective glass crashing toward the ground. Then I summoned my purple flames to catch the falling debris and lowered them safely to the ground.
“That looks like fun. May I?” the dark-haired woman asked.
“Be my guest!” I pulled loose another chunk of tile and tossed it into her hands.
Liby let out a squeal of glee as she caught the cold ceramic projectile. She, however, took a different approach to the destruction process. The succubus ran up to the mirror and repeatedly smashed the weaponized decor into the glass. Shards rained down as I tried my best to catch them with my flames. When she was finally satisfied, Libidine flipped her long hair in victory and strutted back to my position. We spent the next few minutes disassembling the mirror in the most fun ways possible, but we remained careful so that we didn’t render it useless.
