Chapter 53 - Chapter 51: Episode 50 - Exposed
Miel kept Seon-ah's memories of Yu-rin locked away deep in his mind.
It wasn't just out of jealousy; she needed to keep his mind in a state of restoration.
For that purpose, suppressing all trauma-related memories was the most efficient approach.
Most of Seon-ah's trauma stemmed from his kidnapping and the sexual life where Yu-rin had raped him to the brink of death.
For Miel, scrubbing away Yu-rin's traces from Seon-ah's body and mind was a deeply satisfying task.
The memories of being drugged and the lingering withdrawal symptoms in his body—all of it had been wiped clean.
Now, in his mind, she was the only one he could call his lover.
After every session, she never failed to lock away the memories of the act from his consciousness.
Seon-ah was fun enough when he was used to her, but...
Keeping him in a state where his sexual experiences were erased each time, and then furiously fucking him while he acted like a virgin, was as delicious as plucking fresh fruit.
His reactions were completely different that way.
So, she always suppressed those memories, forcing him to live in a state of mental virginity.
That way, she could rape him whenever she wanted and witness that fresh, innocent reaction.
"Miel noona... what's wrong?"
"No, what is it?"
Lately, she had been having Seon-ah live with the implanted memory that she was his older sister.
If she overlapped with someone from his existing memories, Seon-ah would often feel a sense of dissonance.
Miel had implanted a new relationship that hadn't existed in his past.
And she filled that role with memories of herself.
It was still experimental, but the results were undeniable.
Unlike the beginning, when she had to spend a whole week piecing together his shattered mind, these days, even if he broke, she could restore him in less than a day.
Tasting every corner of his mind and memories during that process was fun, but since she couldn't rape him while he was broken, this method was the best way to maintain him in an optimal state.
Seon-ah seemed recovered enough to be raped again.
"You were smiling all of a sudden. I asked if something good happened."
"Yeah, there's something fun. Seon-ah. There's something fun—want to come to the room for a bit?"
Miel grabbed Seon-ah's hand and pulled him, urging him toward the room.
"What is it? Okay. Let's go."
With a pure, curious expression, Seon-ah followed her.
The door closed, the warm sensation of Miel's hand still lingering on his arm.
As always, Seon-ah's tearful, pained screams and moans stained with betrayal and regret leaked out from the room.
The Succubus Lord knew that Miel hadn't been living properly since her last expedition failed.
She showed no sign of heading out again, and the maids reported she was living a debauched life, barely leaving her room.
A high-ranking demon who should have been an example to others had fallen for an awakened male and was acting like this.
As a mother, she finally had a reason to discipline Miel.
Using discipline as an excuse, she could pass that male—though he was just an object—to her other daughters and have them gang-rape him to death.
Then, nothing would remain for Miel.
She would live being nagged daily, trapped in a cycle of misery and pain.
At that thought, the Lord's lips curled into a smile as she contemplated the punishment she would inflict on Miel.
Miel grabbed her head, locking away the memories that were on the verge of driving Seon-ah insane.
It was a daily routine, but every time she raped him, she felt she had rewardingly stirred his entire body and mind.
She believed this enjoyable life would last forever.
Until she ended up in a situation like this...
It happened the moment she stepped out of her room after devouring Seon-ah.
"Miel? It's only right to share among family. But you shouldn't act like that. Are you going to refuse Mother's orders?"
A succubus of the same race was speaking to her, pressing her.
"It's Mother's order, anyway. You know what happens if you refuse, don't you?"
Another succubus next to her spoke, seemingly kindly, but there was a clear threat lurking in her words.
"But that's not okay. Sisters... I'll go on an expedition soon and catch another male..."
The two succubi in front of her were Miel's older sisters.
Having received orders from their mother, the Lord, to take the awakened male from their youngest sister, they were now confronting Miel.
"Mother said to hand over the male you have now. You know better than anyone that saying you'll find a replacement won't work."
Miel was on the verge of going crazy.
Her mother and sisters probably didn't know she had carved her Yin Mark onto Seon-ah.
But even if she showed them, it would be useless.
From what she'd seen of how they treated her, they would break her property without a shred of mercy.
If she told them he was her mate, they would only harass him more with burning eyes.
Everything her mother and sisters had done to her so far had been intentional harassment.
Knowing that the pleasure and pain experienced by the mate connected to the Yin Mark would be transmitted to her, they would probably keep raping him until he was on the verge of death.
It was something that would inevitably happen if Seon-ah fell into those bitches' hands.
It was a situation that absolutely could not be discovered.
"Why is it taking so long? Do you all want to be punished together?"
At that moment, Mother appeared in person.
"Mother..."
The two sisters bowed their heads slightly.
Mother, who should have been waiting in her office, had come personally.
"Let's see the condition of the male first."
Acting as if he were already her property, she brushed past Miel and the sisters and reached for the doorknob.
It was too fast to stop her.
"No!"
Miel shouted without realizing it.
Inside, Seon-ah lay on the bed in pure white nudity, the Yin Mark clearly visible on his abdomen, his mind dazed.
Since she had raped him not long ago, most of his memories were locked away to keep him stable.
When the Succubus Lord witnessed that sight, she began to laugh out loud, amused.
"This is your mate? Pretty good taste, huh? Looks like he'll be fun to play with."
Although there was a rule that a succubus must not touch another's mate, it didn't apply in front of her mother, who held absolute power in this territory.
Miel was agonizing over what to do.
The Lord had ordered her daughters to bring the male Miel had to the office.
When they didn't return after a while, she decided to go herself.
She had finished her work and had nothing else to do, so she moved to check on Miel as well.
In front of Miel's room, she saw her two daughters talking to her.
It was clear Miel was struggling, resisting the order to hand him over.
Normally, Miel would have handed him over out of fear, so why was this happening?
If Miel couldn't show that male, her guess would likely be correct.
Yin Mark.
The tattoo carved on a succubus's abdomen, also carved on the mate.
Surely the male Miel had would have the Yin Mark carved on him.
In other words, the awakened male was Miel's mate.
Her insides boiled with rage.
What woman could bear to see that bitch who stole her mate prosper?
She would take that male, have him raped by her daughters, and make Miel sit there and watch him wither and die.
Thinking she would make him wither away over several hundred days to inflict as much pain as possible, she brushed past Miel and the two daughters, grabbed the knob, and opened the door.
There,
In pure white nudity, with a mark shaped like Miel's Yin Mark on his abdomen, was a beautiful male.
Even compared to the beautiful sex slaves kept by the high-ranking nobles she knew, there was no male like him.
And on top of that, he was an Awakened with a tough, strong life force...
If such a mate were taken away, the pain would be even greater.
Thinking that, she formed a low smile and reached her hand out toward him.
As Mother reached for Seon-ah, Miel shoved her hard.
Then, quickly holding Seon-ah with her left arm, she swung the nails of her right hand to attack the two sisters rushing at the door.
Both fell, clutching their necks as if fatally wounded.
It happened in a split second; they hadn't predicted she would attack, and three succubi stronger than her were taken down.
She wouldn't be able to live in this territory anymore.
But she didn't regret it.
Seon-ah could only be hers.
They should be grateful she didn't gouge out the eyeballs of those three bitches who had looked at Seon-ah with such dirty eyes.
Thinking that, she began to flee with the unconscious Seon-ah.
To where the demons would never be able to chase...
Toward the gate leading to Earth...
