Round 145

Hera moved closer to Silra, her amber eyes scanning the complex array of damaged supports and hastily applied repairs. The building's demands pulsed through the structure in a rhythm that felt almost biological, each beat sending a fresh wave of unwanted arousal coursing through her veins. She gritted her teeth, fighting against the insidious influence.

"What do you need from us?" Hera asked, her voice tight with barely contained frustration. "How can we help keep this place from collapsing while you work?" Her gaze lingered on Silra's tense shoulders for a moment before sliding sideways to where Jeane stood, watching them all with predatory interest. The succubus's eyes glowed faintly in the dim light of the penthouse suite, a visible reminder of the demonic nature barely contained beneath her human facade.

The building's next psychic pulse hit harder than the last, and Hera felt her knees weaken for just an instant before she locked them into place. The sensation was like nothing she'd ever experienced—a perverse combination of fear, arousal, and something deeper that spoke to her most primal instincts. She knew she had to stay focused, had to find a way to help Silra complete the repairs without succumbing to whatever dark magic pulsed through these walls.

"What can we do?" Hera pressed, her voice strained but determined. "Tell us what you need—anything at all."
