You make a snarky, sarcastic comment. She smiles.
"That too. . . but a man like that could never have had the kind of success with women that he did without help. The kind of help that comes from people like me."
She spreads her wings, wide. Her naked body gleams in the dim darkness.
"The deal was made with your ancestor, a wizard in the late 10th century," she says. "Riches, power, and women. . . more than he could ever hope to have. In exchange. . . his soul. But the damned bastard decided to renege on the deal." Alicia shakes her head. "A simple ritual. Cast here, at a place of power, using powerful sexual magics. Three women, representing the three faces of the fates, taken by the one who carries the blood-bond. Their juices anointing him, sealing him against my power." She sighs and shakes her head. "And each soul, sealing the one before, in a chain leading back to that first ancestor."
"I wish to make a simple deal with you," Alicia says, softly. "Do not complete the ritual. Break the chain. It will cause the seal upon souls of your uncle, and your ancestors before them, to be released. They will become vulnerable, and me and mine will take what is rightfully ours. We will allow you to keep the power, the money, and the women. We will give you more than they ever had."
"All we ask for is our revenge. Revenge on the one that wronged us."
She smiles, a wide, mirthless smile. |
