Continuation of Dorian's Deal. I'll give it a bit more... flesh.
_______________________________________________________________________
Dorian decided to test his bargain the hard way. Her eyes had immediately started glowing red.
"Dress up. We go to club."
"No, I'm not going to a club, woman. If I can even call you that. I don't want some passed-around hussy I'm gonna have to get tested because of."
"You just wear condom. Is good protection, for you too."
"How do you know all this stuff? They couldn't possibly have those back when you first started succubus'ing."
"You summon me. The magic, it comes from you, it tells me things. A part of your spark with the tongue of speaking, the shade of place you live, even tree of family. How you know about... succubus, hmm? How you know to go look?"
"Passed down through my family, there are many old stories. They would not tell me about the demons, I had to go look for myself. But I knew they were there."
"The parents, they speak. You know things of them. You speak, from the book. Like parents, telling you, the magic tells me."
"So you're like... my daughter?"
The succubus laughed. "We like you. You call us again."
"Yeah, well, we'll see about that. You better hold up your end of this."
"Be not concerned, take your prize. And then present me with mine."
"That's exactly what I'm going to do."
He got in his car, drove to the most expensive bath and fragrance store in town, and sat in the parking lot, waiting. Two hours he waited, watching who went in, and who came out. Finally he decided.
"That one," he said. "Let me meet her and make sure, but I think she will do."
Her hair was colored in a transition from a wild red at the roots to platinum blonde at the tips. The succubus had been 'sitting' in the passenger seat, not actually physically present as he'd surreptitiously determined by reaching over and running straight into the back of the chair with his thumb as his head was turned. He didn't bother to open the door for her, nor did she pretend to need it; she followed at arms length just behind him, drifting without the motion of walking where he could see her over his shoulder. He went inside and pretended to browse, walking by her and smiling. She had no wedding ring, so he took comfort in the fact that at least he wouldn't be an obvious homewrecker. She had fishnet under her torn jeans which he took as another good sign of her availability, or at least, receptivity to advances. He finished his cursory browse and headed for the door.
"Alright, I choose her. Now what?"
"Now go back out to your carriage, and hold your horses."
"What?!" he whispered. "How do I get anywhere if-"
"Do as I say, or the magic does not work. You do not want this, you should have turned down the deal. I am bound to you until bargain is complete."
"All right. Put up, or shut up," he muttered.
He went back out to his car, turned on the engine, and waited. He saw her come back out with a bag with her purchases, and get into her car - a fine Mercedes, if perhaps a few years old.
"Now, move the carriage into hers. Not too hard, but break the skin, as an apple."
"You want me to crash into her!?"
"Time is ending, be quick!"
He threw his car into gear, and floored it as her car passed him in the parking lot lane. His bumper struck her passenger side, leaving a decent, but not too serious, dent.
"Holy shit I actually-"
"Now get out. Apologize. Make nice."
He scrambled to get his seatbelt undone, threw the door open, just missing the large truck parked next to him, and stood up. The woman blushed as she recognized him right away.
"Oh my god I'm so sorry!" Dorian said.
Her hand went to her mouth for a moment, and it seemed like she bit back a quick reply.
"I- I think it was my fault," she said, pouting adorably. "I pulled out and you couldn't see me, I should have known you were leaving."
"No, no, no, I should have been watching more closely, I stopped to look at my phone and I didn't see you get in your car," Dorian said.
"Well- let's just- um, let's look at what happened here," she said, passing very close to him on her way to the other side of the car.
There was hardly a smudge on Dorian's bumper, and she had a dent and a few flakes of paint missing, but otherwise it didn't look bad.
"Gosh, that's- um, I really got the worst of it, didn't I?" she said, smiling ingratiatingly. "That's what I get for not paying attention!"
"No really, I'm pretty sure it was my fault," Dorian said.
"OK, listen. I'm sure you're a busy guy. I don't need to keep you here and fill out a police report. I know a guy who does mobile paint services. Let me just give him a call and I'll have him fix you up wherever you want. I'll handle the insurance, don't worry about a thing."
"I, um... if you insist."
"I do! I'm so sorry I wasn't watching, I feel like such an idiot now."
"It's fine, I'm sure. Like you said, you got the worst of it. Here, let me give you my number so we can discuss it when you talk to your guy."
He listed it off, and she texted him immediately.
"There, that's my number. I don't want you to feel like I'm about to run off and you never see your car fixed. I'm so embarrassed."
"Hey, it's fine. Everything's gonna be all right."
"Thank you. I'll talk to you soon."
__________________________
He got a call a few hours later. It was her.
"Hello?"
"Hi, it's Emilee. I know, I'm such a ditz, I forgot to even introduce myself when we sort of ran into each other earlier."
"Oh, no problem, I'm as guilty as you are on that front. Dorian."
"Yeah... so anyway, I was thinking, what if we went to dinner? My treat. Just to, you know, apologize for what happened."
Dorian looked over at Ovidia, louging on his bed, casually naked. She looked up at him and nodded.
"Are you coming on to me, miss? Did you run into me just to get my number?" He said, hoping the tease in his voice came through clearly.
"No! I'm not- I just- I want to make it up to you!"
"Well, all right. Just so long as we're clear it's not a date. If it's a date, I have to get dressed up, you know."
"I... yeah. Why don't you drop by my apartment at five? I've got a rental and you can leave your car there if you want."
"OK, sure."
She gave him the address and then hung up.
Dorian looked over at Ovidia. "Apartment? I thought for sure she'd have a big house or something."
The succubus just stared at him.
"Fine. I guess that wasn't really a question. How does this work. How is she attracted to me?"
"How sad, the boy does not know he is good-looking."
