Reborn as a Succubus: Time To Live My Best Life!

{Isabella}

The first rays of dawn were creeping through the windows of the Alchemist's Tower.

Isabella sat at her workbench, having been here all night.

Her eyes were bloodshot, her hair was a tangled mess, and her hands trembled with exhaustion. But none of that mattered.

Because there, clutched in her fingers, was the fruit of her labors. The culmination of countless hours of research, experimentation, and sheer, stubborn determination!

The wand!

Isabella held it up to the light like a divine relic, marveling at its sleek, polished, black surface.

It was a thing of beauty. Elegant and refined, yet thrumming with untold potential.

[I did it,] she thought, a giddy laugh bubbling up from her throat. [I actually fucking did it!]

She ran her fingers along the length of the wand. Doing that made her heart race and her skin tingle.

[Hahahahaha, I... I did it.]

Isabella's mind raced with the possibilities, the countless applications and innovations that her invention could bring about.

But most of all, she thought of Melisa.

[AAAAAAH! She's going to be so proud of me! So impressed! Maybe I could convince her to try swallowing my cum, even... That was basically the one thing we didn't get to try.]

Isabella's tail rocked side to side, a flush rising to her cheeks as her thoughts took a decidedly less academic turn.

[Later,] she told herself firmly, pushing those fantasies aside for the moment. [First, I need to show her what I've created. Need to see the look on her face when she realizes just how brilliant her girlfriend is. And, before her...]

(Melisa hadn't officially made Isabella her girlfriend yet. Isabella had just sort of... decided she was. First of many, of course. She hadn't forgotten Melisa had needs, as did she.)

With a final, reverent stroke of the wand, Isabella tucked it carefully into her bag and stood, her legs wobbling slightly from the hours of sitting still.

She made her way out of the tower, blinking owlishly in the bright morning light.

The campus was just beginning to stir, a few early risers making their way to the dining hall or the training grounds, while Isabella was making her way out.

But Isabella paid them no mind, her feet carrying her swiftly towards the gates.

A while later, she reached her front door, fumbling with the key in her excitement. She burst into the house, a wide grin splitting her face as she called out:

"Mom! Mom, wake up! You won't believe what I've-"

She stopped short.

The living room was empty. The house was silent, save for the soft ticking of the clock on the mantel.

[Right. It's still early. She's probably still in bed.]

Isabella made her way upstairs, her footsteps muffled by the thick carpet.

She pushed open the door to her mother's bedroom, her eyes adjusting to the dim light that filtered through the curtains.

There, sprawled out on the massive bed, was Kimiko, her silky hair fanned out across the pillows, her tail- a lot bigger and fluffier than Isabella's- curled around her body.

Isabella sighed, with a little smile on her face.

Unable to resist, Isabella crawled onto the bed, school uniform still on and all, curling herself around Kimiko's sleeping form. She nuzzled into the crook of her neck, breathing in the familiar scent of cherry blossoms and warm fur.

"Mmm... Bella?" Kimiko murmured, stirring slightly as Isabella began licking up her neck. "What time is it?"

"Early," Isabella whispered, pressing soft kisses to her mother's shoulder. "Sorry to wake you up like this. I just... I have something to show you."

Kimiko rolled over, blinking up at her daughter with sleep-clouded eyes.

"Can't it wait until morning, darling?" she asked, a hint of a whine in her voice. "Mommy needs her beauty rest, you know."

Isabella giggled, gently pulling Kimiko's face in her direction.

"Trust me, Mom. You're beautiful enough already."

She leaned down, capturing Kimiko's lips in a slow, tired kiss. The older kitsune hummed in approval, her hand coming up to tangle in Isabella's hair briefly.

"You're very lucky you're so cute," Kimiko murmured when they broke apart, "or I might just have to punish you for interrupting my slumber."

"Please do~"

Kimiko laughed, swatting at Isabella's rear with a playful growl.

"Don't tempt me. Now, what's this thing you're so eager to show me?"

Isabella's excitement returned in a rush, her fatigue momentarily forgotten.

"Oh, Mom, you're not going to believe it! I finally did it! I created-"

She paused, stifling a huge yawn that threatened to crack her jaw.

[Shit, I really am tired.]

She hadn't noticed until now.

Kimiko chuckled, running a soothing hand through Isabella's hair.

"Created what, sweetheart?"

Isabella shook her head, fighting to keep her eyes open.

"The wand! I finished it!"

Kimiko's eyes widened.

"It's done?"

Isabella nodded eagerly, reaching for her bag.

"Yes, yes, look!"

She fumbled with the clasp, her fingers clumsy with exhaustion. But before she could pull out her creation, Kimiko's hand closed over hers, stilling her movements.

"Isabella, my love, you're dead on your feet. Whatever this wand is, it can wait until you've had some rest."

Isabella opened her mouth to protest, but another jaw-cracking yawn cut her off.

"Shit."

Kimiko smiled fondly, tugging Isabella down to lay beside her.

"Sleep now," she cooed, wrapping her tail around her daughter's body like a fluffy blanket. "You can show me your brilliant invention in the morning when you're not about to pass out from exhaustion."

"It's already morning."

"Don't be a smartass."

Isabella giggled.

"Mom?" she mumbled, her voice thick with impending sleep.

"Yes, darling?"

"Can you... can you invite Melisa over? I want to show her the wand as soon as possible."

Kimiko pressed a tender kiss to Isabella's forehead, her voice soft.

"Of course, my little genius. I'll make sure she's here to bow down to you, and all that."

"Lovely~"

{Melisa}

Melisa's heart fluttered as Javir's spectral carriage slowed to a stop outside Isabella's grand manor.

The ethereal horses pawed at the ground, their translucent hooves leaving no marks on the cobblestone path. Melisa stepped out, her cheeks already flushing as memories of her last visit flooded her mind.

[... Pretty wild night, all things considered.]

"This is the place, I think," Javir said, her voice oddly strained. Melisa turned to thank her mentor, but noticed the older woman leaning back in her seat, her eyes fixed on some distant point.

"Javir? Is everything alright?" Melisa asked, taking a step closer.

Javir's nostrils flared, and she leaned even further away.

"It's fine, Melisa. Just... your pheromones. They're..." She swallowed. "Pretty damn potent these days."

"Oh!" Melisa gasped, quickly backing away. "I'm so sorry, I forgot. I'll try to keep my distance."

Javir nodded, a tight smile on her face.

"It's alright. Have a good time. Isabella, or her mom, can probably bring you back home themselves."

With that, she left.

As the carriage disappeared into the morning mist, Melisa took a deep breath and approached the imposing front door.

She raised her hand to knock, hesitated for a moment, then rapped twice in quick succession.

The door swung open almost immediately, revealing Kimiko Summer in all her glory.

The older kitsune woman stood there, her emerald eyes gleaming as they roamed over Melisa's form with completely undisguised appreciation.

Melisa found her own gaze wandering, taking in Kimiko's generous curves, the way her silky robe clung to her body, leaving little to the imagination.

It was like looking at a more... blessed version of Isabella, and the sight was...

[Maybe she's got her own pheromones. Holy fuck.]

"Well, well," Kimiko purred, her voice rich and smooth as honey. "If it isn't our little Melisa. Come in, darling."

Melisa stepped inside, the scent of cherry blossoms and something distinctly... carnal washing over her.

"Thank you for having me, Mrs. Summer. Is Isabella awake?"

Kimiko chuckled, leading Melisa to the plush living room.

"Please, call me Kimiko. And no, I'm afraid our little night owl is still fast asleep, last I checked." She gestured for Melisa to sit. "Can I get you something to eat while we wait? You must be famished after your journey."

Melisa nodded gratefully, sinking into the soft cushions.

"That would be nice, thank you."

As Kimiko busied herself in the kitchen, Melisa took a moment to gather her thoughts.

This was the first time she'd been alone with Isabella's mother, and she found herself both nervous and intrigued.

When Kimiko returned with a tray of pastries and tea, Melisa decided to seize the opportunity.

"So, Kimiko," she began, accepting a steaming cup. "I was wondering if you could tell me a bit more about yourself. Mom's told me some things, but I'd love to hear it from you directly."

Kimiko's eyes sparkled with amusement.

"That right?" She grinned. "And, what exactly did my dear sister tell you about?"

"..."

Melisa swallowed.

[God, she has this intense energy to her... I feel like she's undressing me with her eyes.]

"Just... Some stuff... Here and there."

At that, Kimiko giggled.

"Well, what would you like to know, little one? I'm an open book."

Melisa hesitated for a moment, then decided to dive right in.

"Well, I know you and mom were... Uh..." Melisa recalled how she saw them making out and blushed. "Close. Close, growing up. How did you end up here in Syux instead of back in the village?"

Kimiko lounged back, crossing her legs in a way that drew Melisa's eye to the expanse of smooth thigh revealed by her parting robe.

Gulp.

If she wasn't making a conscious effort to seduce Melisa right now, well... That only meant she was even more dangerous.

"Oh, Margaret and I were very close, indeed," she grinned. Then, however, her face turned more serious, her smile more nostalgic. "We had grand plans, you know. To settle down together, and raise a family. I'd always had it in the back of my mind that I'd at least put one baby in Margaret." She winked.

[Good lord.]

"But life has a way of taking unexpected turns."

She sipped her tea, her gaze turning distant.

"I met Isabella's other mother on a trading expedition. She was fierce, brilliant, and utterly captivating. Before I knew it, I was swept up in a whirlwind that took me far, far from our little village."

Melisa leaned forward, entranced.

"What happened to her? Isabella's other mother, I mean."

A shadow passed over Kimiko's face.

For the first time since she answered the door, the lady stopped smiling.

Just briefly, though.

"She... left this world when Isabella was very young. All things considered, my time with that woman did not last even a fraction of the time I wish it had. Still, she did leave me with one beautiful gift before it happened. She gave me my daughter, after all."

Just then, a noise from upstairs drew their attention.

Footsteps padded down the hall, and moments later, Isabella appeared at the top of the stairs, her hair a tousled mess and her eyes still heavy with sleep.

The moment she spotted Melisa, however, her face lit up like the sun breaking through clouds.

"Melisa!" she yelled, practically flying down the stairs and launching herself into the nim girl's arms.

Melisa barely had time to set down her teacup before Isabella's lips were on hers, soft and insistent.

"Mmm!"

The kiss was deep and hungry, Isabella's tongue sweeping into Melisa's mouth like it owned the place. When they finally broke apart, Melisa was breathless.

"Good morning to you too," Melisa laughed, her cheeks flushed.

Isabella grinned, then turned to Kimiko.

"Morning, Mom," she said, leaning in to give her mother a kiss that was just as passionate.

"..."

Melisa blinked as she watched Isabella squeeze one of Kimiko's massive tits.

She watched, still slightly stunned by the casual intimacy. Well, perhaps casual wasn't quite the right word. Melisa could, after all, very clearly see Isabella's tongue entering Kimiko's mouth and the hard-on the smaller kitsune had too.

She turned away.

[I almost feel like I'm intruding on something.]

"Sleep well, my little genius?" Kimiko asked, stroking Isabella's hair fondly. There was still a strand of saliva connecting them.

"Mhmm," Isabella nodded, then turned back to Melisa, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "I'm so glad you're here, Mel. I have something amazing to show you!"

Melisa raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

That quickly got Melisa's mind off the southern anthems running through it.

"Oh? What is it?"

Isabella bounced on her toes, practically vibrating with anticipation.

"It's finished! The wand, I mean. I did it!"

She darted back to the halls, returning moments later with a slender, polished black object clutched reverently in her hands.

Isabella held it up, her face glowing with pride.

"Watch this," she said, then spoke the incantation for Illuminate and drew its spellsign, using the wand.

The tip of the wand burst into brilliant light, far brighter and more focused than any Illuminate spell Melisa had ever seen cast by hand.

Her jaw dropped in awe.

"Isabella, that's incredible!" she gasped, reaching out to touch the wand with tentative fingers. "You've really done it!"

Isabella beamed at the praise, but then her expression turned more serious.

"There's something else, Mel. When I present this to the world, I want you to be right there beside me. I want to say it was our invention, yours and mine."

Melisa blinked in surprise.

Even Kimiko looked like she hadn't been expecting this.

"But... I didn't really do anything. This was all you, Izzy."

Isabella shook her head, taking Melisa's hands in her own.

"You inspired me, Mel. That's more than enough. And besides," her grin turned sly, "if we're going to be the most powerful, most famous magical couple in all of Eldora, we need to start building our reputation now."@@novelbin@@

Melisa's heart skipped a beat.

"Couple?"

Isabella nodded, grinning.

"Of course. You and me, Mel. You're welcome to have your concubines," she waved dismissively, "I understand your needs. But when I make it to the top of the magic world, I want to feel you there, next to me."

Melisa felt chills at that moment, looking into Isabella's eyes.

There was a fire in them. Like Isabella had been visualizing that outcome for years.

[... This girl's a force of nature. A storm,] Melisa understood in that moment. [And a lot of people are going to get swept away, huh?]

Melisa pondered what the girl had suggested.

To be honest... It didn't sound that bad.

Besides, it was nice to have it be official and all.

"Okay..." Melisa smiled back at her. "Together, then. A couple."

And, Isabella tackled the girl.

Kimiko rolled her eyes.

"At least let her have breakfast before you fuck her, Bella."

Isabella extracted her tongue from Melisa's mouth.

"Fine, fine... I guess I should."
