The Devil's Pact Pt. 43

I leaned my head, craning my neck, and sucked on her nipples. I went back and forth, making her gasp and moan, her pussy clenching down on my dick every time. Then I nuzzled into her neck, breathing in her musk.

Her hips rode me faster and faster as I explored her body. My hands touched her sides, her ass, her thighs. I felt her muscles flexing beneath silky skin. Her belly quivered beneath my touch. Her nipples throbbed between my fingers. She added twists and pivots with her hips, sliding my cock around through the silk of her sheath, building the ache in my balls.

"Oh, Mare," I groaned, staring up at her. "My sweet, beautiful filly. Cum for me! Let me feel your passion."

"Yes, yes!" she panted as I stroked her thighs, feeling her toned muscles lift and lower her pussy up and down my cock. "I want that! Your cock, Mark! Make me cum on your cock!"

With a growl, I thrust up to meet her. I bounced her on my crotch. She gasped, her back arching as she rose. Her breasts heaved, rising and falling. Her auburn hair spilled about her flushed face as she rode my cock with such passion.

She danced for me, a beautiful ballet that gave me such pleasure.

I seized her heaving breasts, thumbing her throbbing nipples. She whimpered. Her face contorted in bliss. Her eyes fluttered as she slammed down my cock over and over. She whimpered and moaned, her back arching, her pussy growing so tight on my cock.

"Oh, Mark! Oh, my stallion! Yes!"

She slammed down on my cock. Came.

I groaned, savoring the rippling silk of her sheath writhing about my cock. Such exquisite delight rippled down my shaft to my balls. I groaned as her orgasming pussy milked my cock, sending rapture surging through me. Her moans sang, her face twisting with rapture.

"My beautiful Goddess!" I moaned. "My naughty filly!"

"Cum in me, Mark!" Her fingernails scratched my muscular chest. "Please!"

I grunted through clenched teeth, my dick throbbing so hard. I drove my cock up into her one last time. I buried into her sweet embrace. Her silky pussy bounced on my cock, rising up and it and crashing back down, spasming the entire time.

I grunted and spilled my love into her.

Three large blasts of ecstasy shot through my body. Smaller burst shot from my cock. I groaned and gasped, my eyes squeezing shut for a moment as the pleasure shot through me. I kneaded her tits as she trembled atop me, her pussy wringing my cock dry.

Ecstasy buzzed through my veins as I came down from my peak and crashed into buzzing pleasure. Mary fell atop my chest, her pussy's convulsions slowing, stilling. Her breasts rubbed against me, her breathing slowing.

"I love you," she whispered, cuddling on me while my cock softened in the heaven of her pussy.

I stroked her hair, kissed her forehead. "Love you with all my heart, Mare."

Mary's breath grew shallow as she drifted off to sleep in my arms. I held her, enjoying the feel of her chest rising and falling, the warmth of her breath, of her body against me. I treasured the beat of her heart pounding in rhythm with mine. My eyes were heavy. I let them close, feeling safe in the embrace of my wife. We'd face this new problem together.

Like we always had.

I flashed into the cafeteria on a beam of pure light. Doug and Tina awaited, along with hundreds of men and women they'd freed from my parents' tyranny. Around the world, seventy-one other pairs of Nuns and Monks had gathered similar groups, poised to lead their hundreds against the apparatus of my parents' rule.

Today, we would free mankind.

Today, I would die with my parents.

For the last year, we had prepared slowly. Each Nun exorcising clusters of Thralls in small communities, careful and cautious, while I coordinated everything. Holding onto all those one-hundred and forty-four gifts, if only briefly, had changed me. I could see the Light and travel upon the heavenly rays like the angels. When I spoke, people listened. They were swayed by my newfound eloquence, understanding me in their native tongues. I would speak English, but a Spaniard would hear Spanish; a Filipino, Tagalog; an Egyptian, Arabic. My words would protect them, armoring them against my parents' mind-control power.

A few had been captured, sadly, but hopefully they would hold out against torture.

We had thousands unchained, ready around the world to attack all the centers of the Theocracy's powers. It wasn't enough just to kill my parents if the bureaucrats and priests remained behind ready to continue to rule in their names. We had to have something to offer in their place, or we were just condemning the world to anarchy.

I would be with Doug and his group as they attacked. I knew my parents and their security drills. They'd activate the shield and evacuate the mansion on the lawn. They'd be in the open, and I would have my opportunity before they fled to whatever bolt-hole they'd prepared.

If they escaped, things would be far more difficult.

"I've spoken to all the rest," I told Doug, glancing at my watch. Flashing seventy-two times in just a short time was tiring, but the adrenaline pumping through my veins was helping to mask my weariness. "They will start their marches in seven minutes."

Doug nodded, and summoned his golden armor. My father once had armor like that. He had been so magnificent when I had watched him duel Ashtoreth on the mansion lawn so many years ago. I had thought he was a hero.

Sadly, I grew up, and, like all children, learned my parents were only flawed humans.

My hand shook. I turned my back on Doug as the emotion stole over me. I breathed slowly, battling the tears, as I walked to the window. I looked up South Hill at the concrete wall that segregated the Theocracy's capital from its slaves. In a few minutes, five large forces of armed, freed Thralls would march on the seat of my parents' power and attack it from all sides. Behind me, our followers readied themselves for battle, eager to take back their Liberty.

The blood of Patriots and Tyrants...

Chapter Six

Even that morning, I prayed for a different way. I hoped that this was a test, like when God commanded Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac only to provide a scapegoat in his place. Maybe... Maybe there was another way.

Mary Glassner

Mark and I awoke to frantic knocks at our door.

"Sir! Ma'am!" 51 shouted, bursting in. She had dressed hastily, her blouse buttoned up wrong, her ebony face twisted in panic. "The Theocracy is under attack!"

"What?" Mark asked, his voice slurred.

I stirred on his chest and sat up, looking around in confusion. Sleep fell off of me. "What's going on, 51?"

"There are five armed groups attacking the perimeter. They number in the hundreds!"

"Shit!" Mark snarled.

Hundreds? I gaped at that.

"Those fucking nuns have been busy!" Mark growled. "51, pull back the bodyguard! Your sixty-four can't possibly hold against that many!"

"Yes, sir!" she saluted, her ebony face fierce and beautiful.

I rolled out of bed as our frightened maids scurried into the room with our clothing. My body trembled as I stood there, letting them dress me in the black, utilitarian clothing I hadn't worn in thirty years. I felt the cold adrenaline coursing so violently through my system.

I hadn't felt this since the last demon attacked the mansion. When I'd watched Mark duel Ashtoreth on the mansion's lawn and beheaded the bitch. April and Xiu had died that day. My anger rose. We had grown lax. Thirty years of peace had made us complacent.

This time, Mark and I would account for every last nun and monk.

We would set the entire world to hunt them down!

"I miss my Celestial armor," Mark grunted as he strapped on body armor, wearing an enchanted vest like mine.

"Yeah," I said as I finished velcroing the straps of the body armor. It felt so strange to wear it again. A maid held up a bronze amulet. We had started wearing our protective amulets again, warding us against gunshots.

I draped it around my neck and tucked it beneath the vest, feeling it pressing against my sternum. A maid tied back my auburn hair while another held open a box with my 9mm handgun. I picked it up and, with muscle memory I'd thought I'd forgotten, slapped in the magazine and drew back the slide. The round chambered.

I holstered it.

"Maids, take shelter in the basement," Mark ordered as he holstered a.45.

"You'll be fine," I added, then followed my husband out of our chambers.

We hurried through the mansion, maids scurrying to and fro, faces twisted in fear. They looked at us, pleading for reassurance. I lied to them, passing along the order to get to the bunker. Hope melted away their terror.

They believed in us.

Alison and Desiree were waiting for us in the security room, both dressed in black fatigues. Excitement burned in Alison's face; she had always been so reckless during the Demon Wars. "Master, Mistress," she purred. "It's going to be a wild day."

"Too wild," I muttered.

On the banks of security cameras lining the far wall was footage of the outer walls breached in a dozen places. Hordes of men and women poured in, all carrying various automatic weapons. My stomach tensed at the sight of the guns. I felt the weight of my protective amulet swinging next to the heart-shaped locket Mark gave me forty-one years ago.

"Where the fuck did they get those?" Mark demanded.

I nodded my head in agreement.

Alison shrugged. "Some cache a paranoid dictator buried during the troubles. Does it really matter, Master?"

"Sir, we're getting reports from across the globe," a seemingly young Japanese communication officer named Ami said. She was a former Air Force officer who served us since before Lucifer was defeated. "Nine of the administrative districts report they're under attack."

I swallowed, feeling cold. Nine of fourteen. "Which ones?"

She opened her mouth to answer, then paused, listening into her headset. "Sir, Washington D.C. is about to fall. Sean and Tiffany have barricaded themselves in their bedroom with the last two of their guards."

"Central America?" Mark asked, his voice tight. His mother ruled from Mexico City.

"They haven't responded," Roni, another former Air Force officer, answered. "I'm sorry, sir. Paris is reporting an armed mob attacking them, and there was a brief message from Tokyo."

"We should retreat to the bunker," I whispered, my body cold. Both of our parents were in trouble. And our sisters. Our families were in danger.

"Bunker?" Mark asked. He shook his head. I could see the anger building in them. "My mom and sister were in danger! These filthy vermin are trying to hurt my family! And you want to go to the bunker?"

"Yes, the missile silo, Mark," I answered. It was our bolt-hole in Oklahoma. We had only used it once. I was pretty sure we still had it maintained. Those SWAT officers we stationed there with their families should still be guarding it after forty years. "There's no way they can know about it, Mark. We have to regroup."

"Fuck!" Mark snarled, nodding his head.

Sam entered the room. "Sir, I've triggered the mansion's shield. I predict it will last fifteen minutes under the volume of fire."

"Fuck that! I'm going out there and fighting them," Mark barked. "I'm immortal. They can't hurt me! Even if they empty every fucking bullet they have into me, I'll keep on going!"

"You'd be swarmed under and captured," I objected, fear squeezing at my heart.

"I have the power to do it. I'll open the ground beneath their feet, summon the winds to batter them, and cook them with fire! I am Mark Glassner. I'll show them why you don't fuck with a Living God!"

I shook my head. Our families were under attack, probably about to die. I couldn't lose him. "It's too risky." My mind flailed for a reason to stop him. "We don't know enough about the situation. What they can do."

"I can crush them like the insects they are!" Molech's flames danced on his skin and Milcom's lightning crackled between his fingers. I felt the power surging through my husband, drawn from the vast reserves of energy we possessed, the power of all the greater demons we killed. "I'll send the vermin scurrying back to their holes while you evacuate the mansion."

I grabbed his arm. I had to make him understand. "We don't have enough information, Mark! What if there are more? We need to regroup and figure out what's going on!" I stared into his blue eyes, pleading with him. "Please, Mark, please. For me."

"Fuck!" He snarled. He shook his head, conflict raging across his face. Then he relaxed. He always saw reason after he calmed down. "Fine. We evacuate to the bunker and then figure out how we crush them!"

"Yes," I said, my own anger spiking through my fear. "We'll show these monks and nuns the depths of their mistake in challenging us." I cupped his face. "We will destroy them."

A vicious grin crossed Mark's face. "I'll make them realize the error of their mistake. I'll enjoy crushing them beneath my boot."

"We'll make them pay," I growled, tears brimming in my eyes. "They'll suffer for every member of our family they've hurt!"

Mark Glassner

I led our servants and the sluts outside of the mansion. The blue shield shimmered in a dome around the ground. Five gold columns reared around the grounds blazed like the sun, powering the spell. Only our most trusted servants and our family could walk through the shield. It would rebuff anyone else.

Outside, the mob beat at it, shot at it, and hurled whatever objects they could at it. Every impact sent ripples of blue spreading across it and dimmed the golden columns by a fraction, reducing the energy sustaining it. Eventually, the dome would fail, the shield would collapse, and the besiegers would pour in like water rushing through a breached dam.

I stared at the insects. Power brimmed inside of me. A part of me wanted to ignore Mary's advice and just go out there. I would vaporize them with Lucifer's light, befuddle them with Lilith's lusts, fry them with Milcom's lightning. I would summon a tsunami to drown them and rend the earth beneath their feet to swallow them.

"The maids are assembled, my Lord," Pearl stated. I turned to find her standing before the ranks of her girls. They all looked scared.

My sons and daughters, and their children, huddled nearby. Silas had Delilah and Andrea clinging to him while Marcelo and Calypso hugged their daughter Liza. The sluts stood in a nervous clump, Violet hugging Cindy, Jessica trying to stay calm as Korina trembled in Lillian's arms. The sixty-four bodyguards formed a circle around us, watching the shield. 51 nodded to me, then gave a worried glance at her husband, assembled with other servants, groundskeepers, mechanics, and laborers. Even she trembled, her ebony face ashen. She had survived Brandon, the Patriots, and been through the worst of the Demon Wars.

Alison strode out of the mansion. "Master, the mansion's been evacuated. I've destroyed the computers."

Anger burned inside me; I would crush those fucking nuns and monks. I'd spike their heads as a warning to future generations. The power coursed through me, begging to be unleashed on the insects attacking us.

"Then let's go!" I snarled, hating myself for running. Gods should never run. I drew a bronze dagger, prepared to cut a hole in the air and create a portal to the Shadows so we could escape.

Light flashed down from above, pure white, blinding. For a heartbeat, it connected earth and sky. Then it flashed back up into the heavens. Where the light had fallen on the lawn now stood a person.

Chase.

I heard Mary gasp, a sharp intake of breath. The bronze dagger tumbled out of my hand. It was Chase, my beautiful daughter. Her blue eyes fixed on me, a sad smile on her freckled face. Her auburn hair fell loosely about her shoulders, swaying in the gentle breeze. I drank in the sight of her. Hope, happiness, joy, filled me up.

My beautiful daughter had come home.

I didn't remember crossing the distance between us. One moment, I was staring in amazement at her. The next, she was just before me. I must have run to cross the distance so fast. I threw my arms around her, crushing her against my chest. She was wonderful, real, alive, beautiful. So warm and vital in my arms. I smelled her hair and--

I didn't see the ugly dagger clutched in her hand.

"I'm sorry, Daddy," she whispered.

The pain flared sharply as it sliced my thigh.

I stumbled back as the small cut, hardly more than a scratch, burned with venomous agony. The fire spread through my veins, every beat of my heart spreading the poison through my body. Dizziness swept through me. My legs wobbled.

I stared at my daughter in astonishment; her blue eyes brimmed with pleading sorrow.

"Chase?" I asked, confused. My legs buckled. I collapsed onto my back.

"Mark!" Mary screamed

The blue sky stretched out above me--a perfect, beautiful sky. I had seen its like once before, so long ago.

Mary knelt beside me. Her crying face hovered above me, an even more beautiful sight. Her hand grasped mine. She brought my numbing hand to her lips. She gently kissed my knuckles before her mouth moved.

Red light engulfed me.

I felt the heat of her love flow into me. The healing spell rippled through my body. It attacked the venom and...

Failed to defeat it. The pain still burned through me; her healing spell failed.

The world grew darker; my vision grew fuzzy as the agony came closer and closer to my heart. With every moment, my death came closer and closer. I had felt this same poison once, coursing through Mary.

Only, Lilith wasn't going to save us this time.

"Mispach!" Candy shouted. "She has the Mispach. Hurry, we need to kill her and spill her blood on him before he dies!"

My eyes fell on the ugly dagger gripped in my daughter's hand. Cain's dagger. The only way to save me was for Chase to die. If her life blood didn't spill over me, I would perish. And along with me would die my beautiful Mary. I had once condemned the world to darkness to save my wife. I would do anything to protect her, to save her. I thought I could kill anyone to keep my wife alive.

I was wrong.

"No," I croaked. "No."

Mary nodded, tears glistening in her eyes.

"Do not touch our daughter!" my wife commanded with steel in her voice.

"We all die when he does!" Candy objected. "If none of you will kill the bitch, then I'll--"

"You will do nothing!" 51 roared. I could hear a scuffle, a woman screaming in pain. A gun barked. A body thudded on the ground. Sam cried out in anguish.

Chase knelt on the other side of me, her blue eyes swimming with tears. "I'm so sorry, Daddy," she cried, taking my other hand. "It had to be done. Your tyranny had to be stopped. You wouldn't listen to me. Power corrupted you."

I looked from my wife to my daughter as agony pumped through my veins. Chase was as beautiful as her mother. She reached across me, taking her mother's hand. All three of us held each other. Both their hands felt warm and soft. I struggled to speak; there was something very important I had to tell my daughter.

"I... forgive... you."

Turned out it wasn't hard to do at all. It was the easiest thing to do in the entire universe.

Chase Glassner

Life fled Father's blue eyes.

Mother slumped limply forward across his chest. Around me, my siblings, the sluts, the maids, and the bodyguards all fell dead. I killed them all. Tears ran hot down my cheeks. My entire body shook. Hundreds dead from a single knife stroke.

Was I as bad as my parents? Were my murders as justified as theirs?

I didn't know.
