Another early morning but it keeps the lights on. Better then having to join a gang or sleeping on the street; speaking of which.
"Hear you go guys." I hand out the day-olds with a smile, the homeless around here are kind enough to make sure no one messes with me and in exchange I give them the older stuff. It's still good but no one buys it so better it goes to people that need it. Once the last of them are handed out I head back in an lock up until its proper opening time; I'm kind not stupid.
Setting the new pastries and breads in the display case I pause as a voice rings in my head and writing forms in front of my eyes. Shit it was more then me burning my quick breakfast wasn't it.
[Host selected, Congrats on being given the Chaos Gacha. You shall now serve as entertainment for the extra-dimensional masses, in exchange you shall be granted power beyond your comprehension.]
"Am I getting punked by a ghost?" Thats honestly better then a stroke, I can run from a ghost at least.
[No, we are far beyond that. As you have managed to actually survive in this nightmare hellhole you might have what it takes to grant us some entertainment. Now go forth and bring Chaos upon the land.]
"Have you looked outside, I can see a full-blown bum war over the last piece of crust." Dam it Shoeless Dan I told you to stop picking fights!!
[You know how they say theres never enough of a good thing; when it comes to Chaos that is correct. Now receive your starting pow… okay are we sure this didn…. yes I am looking at it…]
"Umm….. what's going on?" The voice is getting even weirder now, I wonder if non-Daten citizen would be taking this so well.
[I have to wonder what star you were born under.
Rare ability: Holy Water - Allows you to create and control holy water, holy water is very effective against unholy beings, you expend more energy to either create more water or create more potent holy water.
Elite Skill: Expert Kama Sutra -You are an expert in the carnal, being intimately familiar with picking up signs of arousal and pleasuring your partners in bed. Unless your partner is completely frigid, no one will leave your bed unsatisfied, your skill in bed is unmatched by most. If you were given magic you could probably create Eromancy.]
For a second my brain burns and I fear it really was a stroke until it stops and I suddenly have far, far more information on the art of sex then before as well as new instincts that I can easily pick out. Reaching out I 'grab' the ability and slot it into a void in my mind and hold out my hand and watch as a small pool of shining water forms in my hand.
"Huh, neat." I feel like I should say more but honestly I've been awake for several hours baking and I have one hour to rest before I open up for the day. I just want a nap right now, future me can worry about it.
A knock on the door rouses me from my nap and I check the clock, still have five minutes till opening but I know exactly who it is. I open the door to find my biggest customer already there.
How the hell she can eat so many sweets and still look like that I'll never understand even with her fighting the ghosts all the time. >
"Come on baker-boy, I'm hungry for some sweets." I snort and hold the door open for Stocking as she runs in and starts perusing today's selection. No one has ever embodied kid in a candy store then she is right now. Wandering behind the counter I start filling a box with her usual selection while she calls out anything extra she wants today. Stocking drooling as I slide a few extra powdered croissants into her box, she's a loyal customer so a little extra only builds up goodwill.
"Alright that'll be $136.65." Stocking eagerly slides her credit card through the machine and takes the box from me.
"Hehehe! Oh yeah come to Mama!" Jumping up and leaning over the counter I'm surprised when she presses her lips against my cheek. "See you later Baker-Boy, I've got a skank to go pick up." As she walks out the door already chowing down I'm wiling to admit I enjoy the view as she goes.
[Get kissed by an angel (on the cheek); received 1x bronze trait ticket]
Wait, Stocking is an actual angel? I thought it was something like those tricolored girls that were always fighting the kaiju. Wait does that mean that chant about heaven was real. Right putting existential thoughts aside how do I use this?
[Rolling Bronze trait ticket
Common Trait: Blood Pack - Your body holds inordinate amounts of blood, approximately 5 times the average person, this does not affect your body in any noticeable way... somehow. ]
Well my body doesn't feel like it's going changed, not quite willing to cut myself to check it. Doesn't say I'll heal quickly just that I have more blood. The ring of the door bell cuts my thoughts off and I get back to selling my wares.
[What should we do after we close up shop.]
Once I've closed up for the day I consider going out and testing my holy water but then I remember that utility bills are due soon and I like to have some buffer in my account. So setting aside the stock that didn't sell and munching on some for my own I get to work preparing for tomorrow. As I'm kneading a batch of dough I find myself wondering what a bit of holy water could do for it.
It's easy to add some into it as I go, putting minute amounts into the dough as I prepare it. For a second the dough infused with the stuff shines before returning to normal, feels like that is a sign it did something at least. Putting that thought aside I store away the doughs based on type and what sort of prep they'll need and go grab a shower before heading to bed. A one person bakery was hard work but I didn't have to worry about employees robbing me or stabbing me.
-x-X-x-
I wake up from my post prep nap to find Stocking standing in front of the door and tapping her foot so fast I'm worried she's going to put a hole in the pavement… no she did just that.
"Stocking are you okay?" She glares at me and for a second I fear for my life before she huffs and looks away.
"My stupid skank of a sister kept me up all night with her full team orgy, she had to see if the hockey players had dicks that matched their sticks and she made a god-dam mess in the common area and didn't clean it up. IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR HER TO KEEP IT IN HER ROOM BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR HER TO KEEP HER LEGS CLOSED!!!" Okay, calming her down before she starts stabbing stuff and pushing the curiosity of how an angel is having sex down.
"How about I make you something special on the house Stocking?" Anger is instantly gone and instead sheer joy is in her eyes.
"Really!?" Opening up the door I nod and gesture to one of the two chairs I keep for customers to sit in and wait.
"Yeah, give me an hour and it'll be ready." I was saving this next week but honestly calming my best customer down sound like a better use of it.
-x-X-x-
Stocking is perfectly willing to wait for her treat, especially once I get a pot of tea going. It's a slower morning so I get the chance to chat with her while the cake I pulled out of the oven is cooling.
"So I'm going to be honest I didn't realize you were an actual angel until recently. If it's not too much to ask how does that work with Panty's …" Stocking chuckles and gives me a dark look, not directed at me but in general.
"General Skankery, we're down here aren't we and I can tell you as good as the sweets are it isn't out of our own free will." Ahh, thankfully the awkward moment passes as the timer goes off and I start icing and decorating the cooled cake. Pressing some strawberries into the icing I slice off a piece, plate it and hand it over to Stocking who curls up in her seat and eagerly takes a bite. >
For a second Stocking goes still, I'm worried she doesn't like it or that Holy Water might actually be affecting her poorly given she's apparently been thrown out of Heaven but then it passes and she begins to gobble it up. Okay that's all good, The Angel is still happy with me. Then her head rolls back and her eyes roll back as she flashes her quickly soaking panties at me. >

"Hey Baker-Boy whats you're name? I should remember but you kinda just accepted the nickname and it stuck." Stocking is looking at me with affection and a wide grin as she takes another bite after asking her question; not having bothered to close her legs as she takes another bite of cake and shivers as she swallows.
"Apron, Apron Baker." Are.. are those hearts in her eyes?

"I…I'm sorry what?" Final bite eaten Stocking stands up and before I can blink she's in front of me. Skirt still ridden up and her shirt open enough to expose her cleavage as she pins me to a wall. >
"I want you to pin me down, smack me around, choke me out, and fuck me real good. Okay with you; I know you've been starring at my ass when I leave so you should have no problem leaving handprints as you shove my face into the mattress right." One hand dips lower, grazing the erection thats begun straining against my pants; in the face of all this there's only one thing I can say.
"Your place or mine?"
-x-X-x-
Stocking decides she wants it at her place; mostly as payback against her sister; I felt like I was walking on a tightrope when I didn't leave immediately but I had to shut down some equipment and lock up before leaving. I don't remember a lot of the drive to her place, only the scenery blurring together and a lot of time spent on only two wheels to get through traffic. I staggered out of the car and took in the church she apparently lived in. I didn't get to take in much of the sight before Stocking my arm wrapped in her cleavage and was pulling me along.
.
--------->
.
"Come on, the slut's probably out hunting for another lay and Garterbelt said something about getting his afro deepcleaned so we should be alone. YOU COME IN MY ROOM CHUCK I'M MAKING SASHIMI OUT OF YOU!!!" I almost ask who Chuck is only to catch some green thing slinking away in the corner of my eye and think better of it.
It's a bit of a maze but Stocking has us fast walking to her room, humming the entire time; it's cute and quite frankly keeps my mind off some suspicious stains in the corner. Eventually I find myself thrown onto her bed and treated to the site of Stocking stripping down. Mindlessly I start doing the same, enjoying the feeling of her looking me over and seemingly pleased with what she saw.
"Alright then, like I said I want it rough and as an angel I can't get pregnant from a mortal and I'm completly clean and can't even carry anything so feel free to rawdog me." Stocking doesn't make a move beyond crawling onto the bed, clearly handing me the reins to direct how this goes. Getting off the bed myself I snag her legs and spread them open.
"I have to admit, after all the sweets I see you eat I've been wondering if you'll taste just as sweet."
Not giving her a chance to respond I dive in, my Expert Kama Sutra enhancing what experience I had before and guiding me on the best way to tease Stocking. Soon I had her writhing on the bed as she I explored her snatch, mapping out the most sensitive spots as her thighs clamp around my head and I get to enjoy the delectable squish. I don't let her cum, every time she starts to reach that peak I back off and let her start to calm down.
"Fuck you!!! What the he…AAHHH!" Once more I have her squirming and get to witness and as I refuse to let her orgasm once more I get to witness and angel beg.
"FUCK!! LETMECUMLETMECUMPLEASELETMECU-AHHH!!!" >
With her legs wrapped around me I swallow or I just might drown, my guess is proven correct though as she tastes sweet. Eventually I manage to pry her legs open and take in her flushed face before pushing her down and following my new instincts to spread her legs and push them up before spearing into her without warning.
"Gahh!! Oh fuck you got a fat baguette! Come on you can do more then that." Reaching out I lay one hand around her throat and look to her for permission, she nods slightly and I grip hard Stocking's throat hard as I put more force into my thrusts. >
The hearts return to her eyes as I restrict her supply of oxygen and drool leaks from her mouth and my skill whispers words into my mind, to further play into Stocking's desires.
"Such a nasty little angel, unable to fight back as I, a simple mortal, claim you as my own." She starts to cum again at those words and her face grows redder, my skill telling me she's still good for the moment so I keep up the pressure and lean down as more words come from the depths of my skill.
"You'll no longer have to worry about you're place in the world. It will be whatever I decide; chained to my bed, serving as my stress toy, reduced to producing nephilim after nephilim for me. You're my slave." Those last three words are whispered into her ear and Stocking spasms as her biggest orgasm yet comes, dragging my own along with it as her cunt tightens around my cock.
Not giving her a moment to recover I flip Stocking around onto her front and getting on my knees I force her onto all fours and spank her ass hard, enjoying the ripple it causes as she looks over her shoulder at me even as she pants for breath.
"Get moving." Stocking doesn't respond just starts thrusting her body back and doing all the work as I allow my body to somewhat recover as the only thing I do is spank her when she doesn't move fast enough and enjoy the view. >
Eventually its too much and I cum once more but not before getting a handful of Stocking's hair and wrapping it around my arm to tighten my grip when I shove her face into the biggest stain on the mattress. That only excites her more as she cums, letting out muffled promises of servitude and thanks for using her. For the next bit I have enough left in the tank for one more round so I decide to go big.
From there it's a haze, Stocking continues to take every abuse thrown at her as we destroy her bed. Slapping, twisting her nipples a full 360, further degradation and even restricting her air flow are welcomed by Stocking as we fuck. Hours later I'm still going somehow but the burn in my body has built up and I'm begining to tire so I decide to finish strong.
Picking Stocking's limp body up I put her in a full nelson, her body tensing for a second before she starts cumming again as her body is contorted like a pretzel and I bite into her neck leaving my mark in her flesh. A small part of me wonders how my efforts have even been able to damage her when I once saw a ghost send her flying though a building and she got right back up but I silence that and give her another hickey.
"Gahh… so good. Best ever, keep going Apron!" Swapping around abilities I put Arousal to the test as I use it to claim one more climax from her before my own is ripped from me. Stocking screams as she head snaps back and her eyes roll up into the back of her head. Her pussy squirting and leaking like faucet as my cock slips away from her body for the first time in hours. >
Falling back onto the bed I lie there exhausted as Stocking lays on top of me, calling for one last act I manage to slide her off of me and curl up around her. Pulling her close as enjoying the feeling of her back against my chest as we both just breathe and recover before Stocking's voice cuts through the moment.
"I'm keeping you." Thats all Stocking says before she closes her eyes she burrows back against me further.
"Sounds good, gnight Stocking." Right before sleep claims me announcements from the Gacha keep my attention for another minute.

Neat, Future Apron can focus on that. I'm going to enjoy cuddling an angel and crash. >
-x-X-x-
"Oh man, that feels nice." >
Stocking was pleased as I helped her scrub her hair clean, we woke up to the church bell in the morning and Stocking tried to drag me into the bath but I put my foot down. You relax in a tub, you get clean in the shower. Thankfully having her hair washed got her to stop pouting; I was just glad that my crotch wasn't so sticky.
Once out of the shower I put on my clothes and Stocking took me back to her room, not bothering to wear anything as she toweled her hair dry. >
"So don't take this the wrong way but I need to sneak you out now. If Panty sees you she'll try to snag you and I don't want her skank stank to get on you." That really shouldn't surprise me, I can think of three times Panty has been caught naked and in the midst of sex on camera and given what her own sister has to say about her.
"Fair, besides I prefer the sweet-stack over the skank." Stocking's face flushes at that and I hold out my phone.
"Put your number in there, I'll text you and we'll set up a date." Stocking looks at me with a confused look on her face.
"You.. you're serious aren't you, you want an actual date. Not just another round of making me your bitch."
"Yeah..? I don't know you that well but you're cute, you've been good to me, and I'd like to spend time with you." Stocking looks like she's bluescreened put types her number into my phone and hands it back. I quickly change her name to Sweet-Stack on it, I'm keeping that nickname for her.
-x-X-x-
"Well look what we have here, Stocking did you get something stuffed inside of you that wasn't that sugary garbage."
Yeah we didn't make it far before running into Stocking's sister who was returning from a run; either she took off her clothes and put them in a laundry basket or just lost them while having sex while out. Given what I know of her its probably the former. >
Panty Anarchy was looking at her with a shit-eating grin before giving me a onceover and tossing the towel that barely covered anything away.
"So then pretty-boy, want to try the better model out. Stocking actually has good taste sometimes when it isn't that sweet-crap she's always forcing down her throat. Bet I can make up for the disappointment from her not knowing how to make it good." I make to respond, not quite sure what would come out but it wouldn't be anything she'd want to hear only for Stocking to literally butt heads with her sister.
"OH HELL NO!!! BAKER BOY IS MINE!! AND FOR THE RECORD I MADE HIM CUM NEARLY SIX TIMES AND HE FUCKED ME ALL NIGHT!!!" Wait was Panty just getting back from her own fuck session. Shit that wasn't an exercise sweat coming from her.
"OH WELL I COULD DOUBLE THAT NUMBER!! AND OF COURSE YOUR CELLULITE ASS WOULD GO FOR A BAKER!! WHAT WANTED HIM TO ICE YOUR CAKE IN BED??!!!"
"SO WHAT AT LEAST HE WANTS MORE FROM ME THEN A CHEAP LAY!! YOU'RE JUST DATEN'S MOST WELL KNOWN LIVING FLESHLIGHT!!!" Fists are clenched and clearly about to start flying as the sister's argue.
"Ladies!" It takes a couple shouts but my voice cuts through the arguing sisters and their attention is back on me.
"Thank you, now let me be clear." I focus on Panty who smirks at her sister only for my next words to wipe it off her face. "I have no intention of getting into bed or any other place with you. I'm a Baker which means I know enough about hygine to say I'd never pass another health inspection even here if I got with you." Her jaw drops and Stocking starts laughing.
"I'll text you later to plan our date Sweet-Stack. I'll see myself out." I'll admit I put a little more effort to get out and start making my way home. I've heard the girls' weapons can't fatally hurt humans but they aren't fun to be hit by.
-x-X-x-
I can hear Stocking's laughter as I power walk away from the Church getting off the property and crossing the street just as …
"WHAT!!!!" Panty's reaction finally happens right as I cross the street and round a corner. I think I might just be the first guy to turn her down. Out of the house and It's already to late to open for the day so I can take my time getting home.

"Alright you bitch, give us your money and we might let you off with only a couple new holes in your body."
I resist the urge to sigh as I look over the half a dozen muggers gathered around me, honestly thats a little off even by Daten's standards. They don't have any gang tats or signs so they're independent but most of those groups don't get this large.
"Hey I'm talking to you punk, get that wallet out." The one in charge waves a knife under my nose and I hold in a sigh, I got to use to the hobos in my area keeping the block safe. Well I do need to put these new abilities to a test involving combat. I slot in Holy Water and let a few balls of it form around me, the thugs backing up at that but Daten has a way of getting you used to the bizarre.
"Right then, I have a business to return to and a date I need to get sorted out." I glare at the thugs and with a bit of effort get the Holy Water balls to contract in the center and push out so that they're now spiked.
-x-X-x-
"You think a little magic tri..GAHH!!" The leader is cut off as one spiked ball slams into his crouch, the tips are dull so it doesn't tear into him but it hurts all the same. Three more shoot out and slam into temples, putting three of them on the ground. This gets the last two charging in a panic, each aiming to stick me with a pocketknife.
"What the?!" I will two balls into position and mold their shape into hands, its rough and they only have four fingers but they grab the two by their heads and slam them together. I look at the leader who's rising on shaky legs, not giving him a chance to say anything another water fist forms and slams into his nose with a crack telling me it's broke.
"If you'll excuse me, I have places to be." Walking over their bodies I leave them behind to eventually wake up and nurse their wounds.

Huh, that's not to bad.
The rest of the walk home isn't too bad, it lets me see just how effective my Stamina trait is thats for sure. Once inside I gather up the old stuff and set it outside for the locals to take care of, it was totally worth it but I won't be pulling a stunt like that often. That taken care of I hold my hand out and with a thought my new slime appears in my hand, not very large or heavy but in time it can grow.
"Alright… think I'll name you Pastry." The slime doesn't really react in a way that I would consider emotive but I can get a sense of what it's feeling and right now it just wants some food. Given what that means I go and find some old clothes I held on to simply to have something old to wear. The thing immediately starts munching on them.
"Huh, you know Panty and Stocking use their clothes as weapons. Wonder if Stocking can get me some they don't use and see how those work for you.
-x-X-x-
"Well might as well ask, no harm in trying at least." Pulling out my phone I send Pastry back to wherever the familiars hang out and pull out my phone.
- Hey Sweet-Stack, everything going okay.
- Baker Boy you have no idea just how much I loved that. Seeing that whore's face after you turned her down, it only got better after you left. So what's up?
- I wanted to get our date set up; while yesterday was fun that cost me two days of buisness. I can't do that to often so we'll have to plan ahead.
- Wow, I know you meant it when you said you wanted a date but this is the first time anyone's followed through so quickly. Right you seem to vary on being open Sunday right?
- Yeah, I can get some big orders for weekend parties after school lets out so sometimes I just crash then.
- Okay, lets do that then. What do you want to do?
- How much do you know about baking
- I won't burn down the kitchen but it's never been something I picked up? Why?
- Would you want to come spend the day at the bakery and I could teach you?
- Will there be sweets you make yourself?
- Yes.
- Sound great, looking forward to it. Don't worry I'll have a treat for you as well. >
- Well that's just unfair, how can I compete with that offering.
- Hehe, you can try. I'll certainly enjoy every attempt.
- Oh speaking of treats I kind of got a pet slime now.
- Huh, weird change but thats neat. Didn't realize those were still around after all the magic types stopped being so out and about.
- Okay questions for later but see the thing is the only thing this one seems to eat are clothes and given you and your sister's clothes are super powerful I was wondering if you had any old one … maybe broken ones given they're also weapons… that you wouldn't mind me feeding it.
- You have a Hentai-Slime?!
- It just seems to eat clothes, not any of the other stuff that entails.
- You have a Hentai-Slime-Lite?!
- That's probably more accurate.

-x-X-x-
"Okay this is nice." I'm good with a knife, its not always a major thing for me but anyone that cooks needs to be capable with one. Now it's on a whole new level; between that, the Ring's boost, and my newfound stamina what was a major time investment has shrunk down a nice chunk. Once I get a filling meal in my stomach I still feel raring to go rather then just wanting to crash like I usually do.
Hmm, honestly there are a lot of ghosts out there. Could go hunt them down, put some practice in and maybe earn some more feats… yeah thats the plan. I won't go far but sitting around won't help and quite frankly the more power I have the less likely I am to die in some random ghost attack when they start throwing around the really esoteric stuff. Mind made up I head outside as the sun starts to dip, locking up behind me as I head out.
-x-X-x-
"COME AND DIE HUMANS!!! I JUST WANTED TO BEDROT BUT NO YOU HAD TO DEMOLISH MY APARTMENT WITH ME IN IT!! WELL NOW YOU GET TO DIE BY MY CLAWS AND FANGS!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!" >
"Okay, this one might be a bit more of a challenge." Hah a bit more! That thing's claws look like they'll cut through steel and bears are the most terrifying land predator around. I consider running only to shake that thought away, not for any moral reason like the people running away but for the simple fact that turning my back on this ghost sounds like a good way to find out what getting my spine severed feels like.
"Alright, head in the game." I consider forming holy water spears but decide on full blow spikes of the stuff, that fur probably has some kind of armor effect going on. My mathematic's skill is really showing itself as calculations fly through my head on the best angle and speeds to send the spikes.
"YOU WANT TO FIGHT YOU LITTLE BITCH!!! I'LL PICK MY TEETH WITH YOUR BONES!!"
A wall of holy water spikes is my response to the charging ghost. At the last second it recognizes the danger but it's to late to stop its charge; instead it pushes off to the side at the last second and only takes a scratch to the side rather then being impaled.
"GAHHH!!" The severity of holy water is made clear to me with this, it wasn't a small scratch but if it had been made by anything unblessed I doubt it would have slowed him down. Instead his scream rings out as the wound releases smoke and seems to be inflamed.
"YOu LITttlE SHIt!! I'lL EAT YOU slOwLY for ThaT!" Rearing back up the ghost draws in a breath and I sends a water rushing at it; it's not fast enough to stop him and when he roars a cloud spews from his mouth as well.
It clashes with my Holy Water and dissipates but I can see spots on the ground have been pitted away.
My opponents grows and spreads his paws out, his stance is off from his wound but the fact his claws extend another foot doesn't make me feel better.
"Wait a minute, lets try this on for size."
Holding my hand out I push the Holy Water into it, forcing it into a shape and thinning one side into a sharp edge. Right as he charges I'm holding a watery version of Stripes.
My Bladed Weapon skill kicks in and I push forward to meet his charge, claw meets blade and while he's clearly stronger then my my sword is made of Hardened Holy Water, it cuts through his claws like butter and I follow up with a slash that cuts off his declawed arm.
"SHIT!!!" The wound starts smoking and while he's distracted I slice upwards, taking off the other arm then spinning around him and slicing whatever passes for the tendons in his legs.
As he collapses in a screaming fit I shove forward and impale his head from behind, willing the blade to deform and start expanding throughout his body.
Digging through it and tearing it apart in case he has one last trump card.
It enough to finish it; rather then explode like others of his kind his body dissolves into dark mist, a little flicker of golden light visible for a second before it flies upwards.
I let my Holy Water fade away and let out a sigh as tension leaves my body, collapsing back and taking a moment to enjoy being alive.
"Oh man, and those two do this all the time and against even worse ones. Man I must have a Guardian Angel looking out for me."
I look around and notice people starting to come out from hiding, alright good deed for the day done.

Epic Ability: Shut Down - You are able to create a large zone around you that shuts off the functions of magical and scientific items. In this range, even the Excalibur is just a very durable sword. But if the item is too far above your level their power is simply drastically reduced.
Uncommon Trait: Reservior - Your energy reserves and recovery speed are greater than what most would consider average.
5 abilities have been collected, unlocking second slot]
Right as I take in my gains six coins fall down and land in my lap. I look them over and note the little wings stamped onto them. Pocketing them I get up off the ground, enjoying the feeling of energy recovering inside me. Alright that's enough for tonight time to head back home and get some sleep before work tomorrow.
-x-X-x-
The next couple days are slow, I focus on selling and taking care of the shop to justify closing Sunday, thankfully a big order comes in and lets me pad by bank account a little more. Plus I get a text from the High School informing me I can finally start up that home ec. class they called me about soon.
They finally repaired the classroom after the last teacher burned it down and himself down while he was high on bath salts.
Once Sunday arrives I'm happy to open the door in the late morning to find Stocking standing there in her usual outfit with a suitcase by her side. >
"Morning Stocking, you look nice."
"Thanks, this is one of my older sets so I don't have to worry if it's ruined. I brought the stuff I promised."
"Really thanks, Pastry's eaten the old clothes I've given him but I think those will help him grow even more." I carry Stocking's suitcase in but she takes it and opens it out of view. Pulling out a large armful of panties as I bring Pastry out and let put him on the ground, Stocking dumping the underwear on him and watching in glee as its dissolved, even drooling a little bit. Pastry manages to get a decent size increase so that I can't just easily hold him in my hands now. Sending him away I pull out a pink apron with a skull on it, I honestly can't remember where I got it from, and handed it to Stocking after she ties her hair up in a ponytail and slides a hair net on.
"What are you staring at?" I peck her on the cheek and move to get the ingredients out.
"Just think you look good with your hair up. Ready to begin."
"Yeah, lets get started. Sooner we finish the sooner I can something sweet in my mouth."
-x-X-x-
I look down at the cookies Stocking had put together unsure of how they had turned out this way. Stocking had listened to me, only eaten a few spoonfuls of the batter, and took everything seriously.
"Hey Stocking, how many eggs did you use." I had been busy when she whisked the eggs so it might have been that.
"Nine." That was another thing, Stocking was actually upset about her failure when she usually didn't seem to care too much about anything.
"Ah, proportion problems. Common mistake. Lets try again and we'll make another batch." It wasn't just the eggs but I'll explain that to her as we go, I think she messed up on a lot of the measurements but nothing that can't be fixed going forward.
"Right.. damn it all because of fucking eggs."
"Better then my first time baking." Stocking snorts at that as she tosses the failed attempt away.
"Oh really and what happened when you did it. Swap the sugar for salt."
"Started a fire that nearly burned the place down." Stockings attention is focused on me as I pass her another set of ingredients and start running her through it once more.
"So I didn't set the timer correctly and we weren't paying enough attention till the smoke started spewing out of the oven. Thankfully we put it out in time but my parents were furious, couldn't sit for a week."
"Okay yeah that wasn't bad, were are your folks anyway."
"They passed a few years ago, turns out the spot they grew up in wasn't built with proper materials and some of it caused toxic build-up." Stocking freezes for a second before continuing with her mixing the dough.
"Sorry."
"It's fine, it was a drawn out thing so it was kind of a relief when their suffering was at an end. I've come to terms with it and with you around I have proof they're in a better place. What about your folks?"
"My mom is one of the head honchos of Heaven, her name is Judgement. I got no clue who my father is, only some guesses and they're not great." I don't push further at that and we fall into a comfortable silence as we work. Once we slide the new batch into the Oven I hand Stocking a cookie from the batch she made and watched as a smile bloomed on her face before she started talking.
"Mom's distant, loves us but we're total screwups and that doesn't make her look good. We got sent here supposedly as a last chance but I don't think anyone expects us to collect the Heaven's necessary to do it."
"Those coins that drop when you kill ghosts?"
"Yeah, its going to take a while to get them all."
"Well I can help out slightly there." Reaching into my pocket I pull out the six coins from the Bear Ghost and hold them out.
"How the fuck did you get those?" Stocking snatches a coin and looks it over right after getting over her shock.
"Killed a ghost and these dropped, I got no use for them so if they help you feel free to have them." The timer interrupts us and I pull the new batch out of the oven while Stocking puts the coins in a side pocket of her suitcase.
"We'll be going over how you did that later but .. thank you. That means a lot to me."
"Of course. Now I'm thinking we order some takeout to be delivered and we veg out while watching crappy television with your new and improved batch for dessert."
"Can I pick the restaurant, I really don't want to order from one where Panty's fucked the delivery guy. Its awkward at best and creepy at worst."
"How many options does that leave us with?"
"Less then I'd like but not as few as you would think with how much the skank gets around."
-x-X-x-
I haven't eaten a lot of Thai food before but it's pretty good, Stocking seems to enjoy it. Stocking's curled into my side as we flip through the tv channels, lot of international news tonight.
"Once more the Powerpuff girls …."
"Local Hero Martha, survivor of Mayberry the crazy bitch and her family wer found dead alongside …."
"Revocs Corporation once more expanded …"
"Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel.."
"Apparently small town Amity Park was sucked into another dimension temporarily…"
"Of course this place is so shitty it gets TV from hell"
"What?"
"Yeah that Hotel is owned by my cousin down below, hope she stays safe with the all the shit going on."
"Your cousin … is she…."
"Lucifer's daughter? Yup, never met her but sweet girl apparently even if she's a naive idiot but then again she's only 200-something."
I do not ask Stocking her age, I'm not that stupid.
"Right where's your room?"
I look at Stocking with a raised eyebrow and she pats my cheek.
"Don't act like this wasn't going to happen, now where is it. I got something I need to set up."
I point down the hall to my room and she smiles at me.
"Give me five minutes then come inside and bring the slime."
I chuckle at that, not surprised Stocking wants that brought into play.
Gathering up the trash and clean up a bit to give stocking time for whatever she has planned.
-x-X-x-
"Stocking you're going to have to teach me how you do this ropework down the line." Mostly because if I wasn't so sure we could easily destroy these I would be worried about getting her loose later.
"Yeah, yeah. Now start taking advantage of this pure and innocent maiden you have captured." I don't laugh at that but its a near thing; time to show off a bit. I had told Stocking a bit about what I could do earlier but I saved my newest ability for as a surprise. Letting Pastry fall onto Stocking he happily starts slurping up her clothes while she moans and I disrobe myself.
.
----------->
.
"Of course, I've been looking for some new blood to replenish my tribe."
Stocking's arousal cuts into confusion only for a second before my body sifts, growing out and becoming taller and more muscular while horns sprout from my head while two more arms sprout from my shoulders.
Stocking starts panting heavily and squirming as Pastry vanishes with his meal finished.
"I look forward to seeing what sort of spawn you give me little angel. Try not to break." >
No foreplay this time, one hand chokes her, two force her thighs further apart, and the last begins playing with her breasts.
My cock has only grown in size, I lay it down on her stomach, showing her just how far it will go inside. >
"Oh fuck, you'll ruin me. Turn me into a demon spawning pit." I tighten my grip, all four of them, harder and slam into her.
"Thats the idea, it's not like you're good for anything other then being a piece of meat to fuck." Stocking is gasping and cuming already as I let go of one thigh and start stretching out both her breasts. "These will swell to serve my children." A smack to her rear, leaving a handprint as I watch her eyes roll back; the sight bringing me to release as well. >
Filling her up I pull loose and stand up, grabbing her with me and forcing her into a full nelson with one hand on each limb. >
"Oh yeah, thats th…GAHH!!! OH GOD YES!!!" Slamming into her ass I enjoy the feeling of her other hole stretching out to fit me. Stocking's cries devolving into gibberish as her ass is stretched out and her limbs pulled taut.
I start biting at her neck, leaving deeper bruising as I mark her. Losing track of time as I enjoy feeling her writhe impotently against my grip and around my cock. Another load soon joins the first inside her and I throw her onto the bed.
"Already done? No that can't be, you have more in you surely."
"B…bring it on yo…you bastard. I… I won't be your plaything." It would be so much more convincing if her eye's weren't filled with hearts again.
"Oh you will my angelic cumdump, because if you don't I'll simply break you."
Gripping her head with two hands I force my cock to her lips, giving her a second to protest. I know she cleaned herself before hand but if this was too much I was going to give her an out.
Only Stocking shows just how far she's willing to go as she opens her lips, sticks out her tongue, and looks at me pleadingly. I give her what she wants and shove my cock down her throat, watching as she eagerly works with my thrusts to choke herself on my cock.
"Get used to this, this will be your main source of food going forth. But you'll eagerly swallow every drop won't you."
"YNS!! FCK YS!!" >
Stocking cums once more as she gurgles out a reply around my cock and I speed up my thrusts, enjoying her mouth and throat and soon letting another load loose. I pull out and let Stocking collapse to the mattress.
Shifting back to normal I pick her up and carry her to the shower.
"Come on, lets get you cleaned up."
Stocking mumbles her thanks, pressing her cheek shoulder and dozing off, looking far more adorable then she has any right to be after what we just did. Once she's cleaned off I get her changed into some pajamas she brought with her, change the sheets and tuck her into bed. Crawling in alongside her I soon find myself being used as her pillow.
This feels nice.

This was wrong, she shouldn't be watching this. Shouldn't be finding it so enjoyable, shouldn't be jealous of Stocking one of the two that Sera was always complaning about, shouldn't want to be in her place. Yet here she was, watching the blue and pink hair angel cuddled up to the one she was so enamored with as he pet her hair after he had … had transformed into a beast and ravaged her.
She had felt the growing need inside her, shucked her robes aside and worked to pleasure herself to the sight.
And she desperately wanted more. >

Extracting myself from Stocking in the morning to begin working was a challenge but doable, I'll admit I rushed things a bit but with Four Arms enhancing my work speed further with my ring's boost I wasn't cutting any real corners.
[Belated Ticket Granted; Apologies for the delay

[Common Skill: Intermediate Driving - You are a seasoned driver, you are capable of handling a variety of vehicles ranging from bikes and cars to aircraft with familiarity.]
That would be nice if I owned a vehicle of any sort but those get jacked too often for me to want one and considering there are freaking loop-de-loops built in the street system I don't particularly want one.
"Mmh, do you get up this early all the time?"
Turning around I found Stocking in the door to the Bakery's kitchen still in her pjs and clutching her stuffed cat in one hand. >
"Part of working a bakery, go back to bed and I'll whip us up something to eat."
I start gathering the day-olds and that makes me think of my Obsidian Gargoyles, so as I pass the day-olds to the homeless.
I will my new familiars into existence; four taking perch on my roof while the other four spread out, one in each cardinal direction, to begin their new job of watching over my place
"No."
I feel Stocking wrap around me and nuzzle against my neck.
"You go rest, I'll make breakfast."
Honestly that sounds really good.
"Thanks Stocking, I'll take you up on that."
Walking back upstairs I crash onto my nap chair while Stocking moves to the kitchen. It reminds me of my parents slightly; they'd alternate who cooked while one of them napped before opening up.
Fuck, I'm really falling for this girl and falling for her fast.
[Realize your own feelings: Bronze item ticket]

Stocking had to leave after breakfast, apparently Garterbelt texted her about another ghost, but we both agreed we wanted another date; Stocking wanted to plan the next one and I was intrigued about what she might be planning. Still that left me alone with just the store to run, felt weird that Stocking isn't buying a whole box for herself but she left with leftovers from yesterday so I suppose even she has a limit.
That left me alone for the day minus customers; we had a good crowd today so I actually ran out of stock faster then expected and closed an hour early. That left me a good three hours before nighttime wondering what to do.
-x-X-x-
Honestly the Holy Water ability was my greatest asset right now although Shut Down had potential down the line. As such I decided to put some effort into further mastering the ability, mostly I worked on different shapes and forms and how to best move them.
-x-X-x-
I was in the zone, that was the best way to describe it. Over the next few hours I managed to triple the number of constructs I could maintain and use viably.
That was a major upgrade in my opinion, before hand five balls was taxing while now I could have fifteen of them and use just as easily as I could five of them while switching their forms around easily. Multiple forms at once was still difficult to operate but I can easily through up a shield while attacking now.
I look outside and realize the sun is starting to set and make to get a quick bite before catching a few hours of rest.
-x-X-x-
The smell is what alerts me something is off, I take care to make sure my plumbing never gets backed up because a bad smell will kill business. As such when I rush to my bathroom I'm already on edge and that lets me react quickly when shit starts flying out of it. Tinged with black and red and ghostly smoke flying off it I throw a deluge of Holy Water at it and watch as it melts away while a unholy shriek rings out from my plumbing.
"What the actual shit!"" Even for Daten this was crazy, looking outside I can see a literal river of shit flowing by while something rises up in skyline.
For a brief moment I consider not doing anything but then a wave of shit gets sent towards my bakery and I'm having to send a wave of holy water to counter it. Nope this thing dies now because I am not going to let my shop get washed away in fucking shit!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emily had to admit, she was not aware of how … disgusting the ghosts could be. She had never really been around Panty and Stocking and she hadn't heard a lot of good things about them but she was sending them a gift basket if this was what they had to deal with often. Honestly it was disgusting and made some of the other angels comments make more sense now; apparently they were being literal about how … shitty … the human world can be.
Still for how bad it was it did have one silver lining. She got to watch Apron rushing to save the day, using his Holy Water to slide across the ground at high speeds while sending blasts of water to give people time to flee or break free. It was amazing and heroic, and just all around wonderful.
Doki Doki
Emily wished she knew why her heart always seemed to feel like this when she watched him and why it brought forth so many images of her in Stocking's place or beside them or just her and Apron in so many different scenarios.
Didn't she once hear the best way to think through something was to write it out? That might be a good idea.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"This is without a doubt the most disgusting ghost ever." I managed to get to the ghost fairly quickly, it wasn't like it was hard to find and its main mass was slow as … well slow as shit.
"Well there's a face not even a mother could love." It must have heard me because it stopped and stared at me.
"You know normally I feel some sympathy for you ghosts, you're formed because of death, regret, and other dark emotions that people sometimes can't help but you, you I hate." I don't think this thing can really understand me but I don't care.
"My bakery is important, it's a dream of my parents I carry on. It's one of the most important things I have and you tried to cover it in shit." I can feel my eye twitch as I thought about my bakery, my home, what my parents poured blood and sweat to build and run and give me a good life with it.
"I'm going to enjoy every scream you make." Swords of holy water form around me while Shadow Darts are prepped and readied.
-x-X-x-
Tentacles of shit come my way only to be diced by my blades. Shadow Darts launched at its eyes and swords carve away at it's main body; gapping wounds left sizzling from the holy water.
"GAHHH!!!"
"What's wrong you were slinging all that shit earlier and now you can't take getting things thrown back! Just stay still and this will be over quicker!!" It isn't an easy thing though, the ghost is so large that even the worst cuts aren't that big in the grand scheme of things and it still has more then enough mass to attack me with but with my Math skill actually helping figure out their path and the ring of swiftness boosting my reflexes I can easily dodge them.
"Okay if I can't cut enough away …" I raising my hand, a massive amount of water forming and mimicking a the fist I form. "…then I'll smash it all at once!!!" The less said about the visceral, wet, squishing noise made from the impact the better but once the ghost's main body was flattened it stopped squirming and began to fade away, helped along by a dozen more Holy water blade stabbing it a lot, and when the last of it faded away a single Heaven Coin fell down and rolled to a stop at my feet.

"HOLY SHIT!!!"
I turn around to find Stocking looking at me with a blush on her face and a walking pile of shit. I immediatly start spraying wondering if I missed some only to reveal Panty beneath it all. Stocking clearly loves that while Panty just seems happy to be clean.
"YOU LANDED A FREAKING KILLING MACHINE LIKE THAT!! Come on spread the love sister."
"You go near him and I'll shave you bald, pluck your feathers and make you the new layer of a turducken."
"Oh come on girl, look at him! I swear he's getting even hotter. It's a crime for me not to sample that." I cut in there.
"Stocking is the only Anarchy I have any interest in. Stocking I'd love to chat but I need to go make sure my bakery is okay. I'll see you tomorrow for your next batch of pastries?"
"Of course, I'll make sure the skank doesn't ruin it." I nod and pick up the heaven coin and press it into her hand, it's not like I need it. I make to start my trek back but Stocking stops me.
"Wait, I can't just take this on top of the others." I laugh at that and turn to face her.
"Stocking you know I do..mmph!" I'm cut off by Stocking kissing me, its soft and warm and get my heart pumping and when she pulls back I get to see her blush spread.
"Th..there tha..that should be a fair exchange." I'm treated to the sight of Stocking running away with Panty chasing after her begging for details.

[Rare Ability: Hypnosis - Allows you to hypnotize people and influence or change their minds either subtly or directly, to hypnotize someone you have to get them off guard. The higher the target's willpower the more they can resist.
Uncommon Trait: Hacker - You are great at interfacing with technology and leveraging your skills to get into networks.
Common Skill: Novice Cooking - You are a novice in the culinary arts, you can cook most basic meals and they will taste good. But don't expect to get a job as a chef. You will however improve much faster than other people if you choose to train yourself.
Rare Trait: Precise - You are very precise and controlled when using your abilities or spells, your control over your own moves and body is beyond the norm.
Elite Ability- Holy Flame - Allows you to wield the holy flames of Angels, while not any more effective than regular against regular living creatures like humans and animals they deal extreme damage to any unholy or darkness-aligned being and prevent them from healing. In addition, they can be used to burn away afflictions if one is skilled enough at wielding them.]
Huh, the Novice Cooking is a bit of a waste for me and Hypnosis has a lot of moral implications while Hacker seems useful but the last two are the big wins. Precise for extra control and Holy Flame gives me another element to kill ghosts with. Wonder if can combine them to create Holy Steam and turn the very air against ghosts.
-x-X-x-
One week after the shit ghost and my morning routine is interrupted by a notification from the gacha system.

I pick the skill in the end, I can probably jury rig some steam with my current abilities Savior Faire has a wide range of benefits. Selection made I carry on my morning prep, stacking up the trays as I do so. Honestly that ticket was a welcome thing, over the past week I had gone on a couple hunts for ghosts but every one I killed netted me nothing but Heaven coins.
Clearly my combination of holy abilities means that regular ghosts don't pose enough of a challenge to merit tickets in the System's eyes. It's a shame but clearly I'll need to focus on quality now. That thought process is broken by my phone ringing Stocking's ringtone.
"What's up Stocking, we still on for tonight?" I can hear a lot of noise on the other end of the call, including what sounds like dozens of police sirens.
"I need your help Apron! That fucking skank is a no show and I'm trying to run down some ghost that took over a car, I …GAHH!!!" The sound of metal slamming against metal comes over the phone and I'm already rushing out the door.
"Stocking are you okay!!??"
"Yeah I'm fine but I can't hit this thing hard enough with See-Through and I can't drive and slice this thing at the same time!!" Creating a platform of water I rise up and get into the air, flicking Holy Flame into the second slot. I can see the army of police cars from here, my math skill helping me plot a course to intercept it.
"I'm on my way!!"
-----------------------------------------------------
Fuck that stupid slut, she was probably off fucking some limp dick quickshot and threw her phone in the trash. Meanwhile I have to have a high-speed chase where I can't truly fight back and now I'm having to pull out of a tailspin from down below. Fuck it!! Fuck it!!! FUCK IT!!!
Chuck is actually more useful then Panty right now, because if I get close enough I can at least throw him at this ghost.
I have to swerve around another car sent flying by the ghost and I'm desperately having to hope Apron can help me. Fuck I'm actually falling for him, because I can actually trust him and he doesn't judge, doesn't tell me to change everything.
The only time he's commented about my eating habits it was out of concern and once he was informed how my metabolism could easily handle human sweets with enough exercise he dropped it, he doesn't take me to task for my temper, just showed concern about how angry I could get and questioning my outlets for it. He doesn't understand how happy that makes me, how special it make him. The only person I've never gotten capital - A angry with.
"Hey come on Bitch, I wanted a challenge not a snooze fest!! Pick up the pace already!!"
"Will you shut up already!" I make to swerve at him only to quickly brake and pull back as a ball of fire comes flying at the ghost. It manages to swerve around it but has to perform some insane evasive maneuvers when spears of holy water start slamming down.
"YOU WANT A CHALLENGE!!! I'LL RIP YOUR FUCKING TAIL PIPE OFF AND SEE HOW FAR I CAN SHOVE IT DOWN YOUR THROAT!!!" I've never really seen Apron angry, I saw the tail-end of it with the shit ghost but this. His eye are wide, his flames burning bright as he comes rushing in and then he flips in mid air and lands in the seat next to me, giving me a vicious smirk as launches a blast of fire that tears the rear wing off the ghosts body.
"Let's kill this prick." If I wasn't driving I'd swoon; instead I gun it.
"Yeah, YOU'RE DEAD ASSHOLE!!!"
--------------------------------------------------------------
I can instantly see why Stocking is having problems, she's a melee fighter and that doesn't help when she has to drive at high speeds but thats not a problem for me. I can keep blasting it with holy attacks. I briefly consider slotting in Shut Down but then remember that See-Through is magical itself and I'd rather not be in it when it goes completely dead. Instead I decide to let this jackass be the one to spin out.
"Stocking get us closer and on the side!"
"You got it!!" Stocking slams the gas down so hard I'm amazed she doesn't break through the floor but See-Through rockets forward and we're up beside the ghost. With a gesture I send my holy water down in front of it, cutting off the contact the wheels of the ghosts have with the road.
"WOAH WOAH WOAH!!!! NOT COOL BRO!!! WHY YOU TRYING TO HARSH MY JOYRIDE!!"
"You think I care, you tried to hurt Stocking!!" I'll admit I lost my cool at that but this pricks 'joyride' involved trying to make Stocking crash and the thought of that has my temper boiling. So maybe jumping out of See-Through and onto the ghost wasn't the best idea but he shut when I shot a ball of fire into his engine right as a dozen blades of holy water slams into his head
What happens next is a bit of a blur as the car spins out, one second I'm shoving a blade between the ghost's eyes and the next I'm lying on the road, miraculously unharmed but feeling a breeze for some reason. That thought process was interupted by Stocking slamming into me and shaking me around like a ragdoll.
"WHAT THE FUCK YOU FUCKING IDIOT!! YOUR BEST IDEA WAS TO JUMP OUT OF THE CAR AND ONTO AN EXPLODING GHOST!! NEVER DO SOMETHING THAT STUPID AGAIN!!" Its hard to tell for a second due to all the shaking but I can see tears in Stocking's eyes. Reaching up I wipe them off and hold her close.
"I promise I won't do something that stupid when there are much better options." Stocking pulls back and looks at me before giggling at me pulling me along.
"You're lucky I love you, now lets go get you dressed and we'll start our date early." I almost don't catch that last part over the Stocking saying she loves me, honestly the fact I'm naked in the street and a news chopper is flying around is secondary to realizing I might feel comfortable saying I love you back. I'm dragged out of this train of thought when Stocking shoves me in See-Through and peels out while a line of achievements is made.

Once we arrive back in the bakery and I'm clothed I make a pot of tea and pour a cup for Stocking, she was clearly curious about what I wanted to tell her but appreciated the tea and cookies I presented her.
"Alright spill it, you've been really quiet." She freezes for a second and then sets her cup down before look at me with worry. "Did I say love too fast? Is this break up tea?!" I jolt at that, hating the thought of it.
"NO! No … I … I want you in my life Stocking, I .. I don't know if I'm ready to say it back and I'm sorry for that but my life would be much poorer without you in it." Stocking calms down at that and while I should tell the truth I have to ask.
"Why did you say it so quickly, we've only been dating a short time." Stocking nods and puts her tea down, leaning forward to look at me.
"You're human and while you aren't as squishy as the rest you're so short lived. I'm old enough that I honestly keep track more by decades now and I'm young by angel standards. I'm only going to have a short time with you and I can't count on you getting into Heaven because sometimes it feels like the requirements for entrance are a moving target. I'm a glutton, I know that and I want all the time I can have with you at it's most intense so that if I lose you I can always savor the memories to their fullest." There is only one thing I can say to that.
"I love you." Stocking's smile at that response is breathtaking but I power through. "And that's why I need to tell you something." And so I lay it all out, my first meeting with the force behind my power, the abilities and powers it gave me, and most importantly in this case the traits that would be affecting her. Stocking stays quiet the whole explanation, face blank as she sips her tea and waits for me to finish.
"So to be clear, you've got two .. traits that lead to you being angel bait and making people open to a harem when it comes to you." I nod, well aware I could be watching my relationship go down in flames.
"And you didn't get those till after we hooked up, the reason those treats in particular affected me so much because you infused them with holy water so it felt like I was home."
"I wasn't aware of the last part but yes." Stocking puts her cup back down and the walks over to me and straddles me.
"One I was attracted to you before hand, two Adam has a harem with his little groupies along with plenty of others and three.." Leaning in close she whispers into my ear sending a shiver down my spine. "… the thought of you being angel bait only makes you hotter." Leaning back she smirks down at me.
"Plus I'm very much bi, you want to share a girl between us I'm down for that so long as you're aware you're the only one I submit to." I get her in a hug and kiss the side of her neck, enjoying the feeling of her shivering against me from the contact.
"You're amazing Stocking."
"I know but feel free to keep telling me so."
------------------------------------------------
She couldn't stop writing as she watched Stocking and Apron cuddle in the back of a movie theater. While she had turned the sound part of the scrying spell off for privacy but she had been watching ever since they arrived back at Apron's home, plus when she couldn't hear them she could come up with her own dialogue.
'You want to expand our relationship, are you sure Stocking?'
'Of course, I know you have more then enough love in your heart. Plus I know the perfect girl to bring into this.'
'Oh?'
'Yes a cute little thing named Emily, she'd love to have a date with you.' Emily's face reddened and her thighs pressed together as she wrote the next part, recalling things she had heard Adam say that felt appropriate here. >
'Plus she'd look so good impaled on your cock and begging for you to make her your woman' It was only fantasy but for a brief moment Emily felt hope she couldn't explain before the burning need consumed her once more and tucked away her journal and work to quell it, mentally working out where her story would go and how Stocking would describe her having sex with Apron or even with both of them.
