The halls of Gwen's castle felt cold as Heather paced nervously before a grand window overlooking the gardens below. She caught her reflection in the glass and looked at her coppery skin that was so heavily on display as she dressed in the barest amount of clothing. Her eyes were red slits, matching the cascade of dark red hair that fell down her back. She had black horns that curled gently back, marking her as something devilish and wicked. Her entire appearance screamed sex, and yet that was the farthest…-

Heather clutched at her exposed ribs with blood-soaked fingers as Blackbast channeled a healing spell. Her body was numb from the shock, and she was sure several bones were broken. All of it began to knit back together as the healing magic did its job of soothing away the pain. The source of her injuries was a lion-like creature with the face of a man that stood tall on a pile of debris as it mocked them for their weakness. She had never been hit so hard before, and the impact had thrown her clear across…

Heather fretted as she sat at the table beside Frank while a room full of angry people debated what was to be done with Alexandria. The clever woman had found a way to amplify her magic and then ensnared both Chandice and Santos into a plan to lure Jaina away. The whole thing was brilliant and going exactly according to plan until her husband, who was an excellent judge of motive and character, saw through it. Frank figured out what was going on and prevented anyone from moving ahead. He challenged Santos…

It had been a normal day of laying about as Heather and Umtha played in the pool of the palace. It was a lovely marble pool in a great round circle that would easily hold fifty people. In the center was a fountain that warmed the water and gently cascaded into the pool. A few of Rajeen’s harem girls were also present, lounging on one of the benches in the water as they talked. “This is the perfect life,” Heather moaned as Umtha rubbed her shoulders. “Why didn’t Frank tell me I could be a…

“Are you ready?” Frank asked as Heather and the other girls stood by nervously. They were outside Idris's village as the sun was about to set, triggering her invasion. However, Frank had bolstered her event, and tonight's invasion would be one of a kind. Heather, Quinny, Breanne, and Umtha would have to stop the attack using their powers. “Do we really have to do this?” Heather asked nervously as her tail twitched side to side. “Yes,” Blackbast replied from where she stood in Frank's arm.…

Heather marveled at the size of the cavern as they passed through the stone archway that marked the edge of goblin control. Beyond the heavily guarded metal gate was a place she had never imagined possible. The vast region was oddly lit with moody blue lighting and glowing fungus, allowing a vague understanding of the space. Still, many regions were absolutely dark, but in the distance, lights twinkled as if torches were burning. Thankfully every member of the group had some form of night vision and could…

The cave was lit by magical light placed there by Frank to create an almost twilight light appearance. It was on the third level of his dungeon complex, hidden behind layers of traps, secret doors, and a small army of undead. Heather felt safe to practice her necromancy here as it was shielded from prying eyes. Deep below ground and watched by Frank while she was at her work. The cave was also large enough that she had room to cast some of the more destructive spells or even fly over the vast…

“So what do you think?” Frank asked as they stood at the intersection of a stone roadway that headed around the western borders of the swamp. It branched off and headed into the mountains, where it entered the region given to Lydia. The land was unclaimed and relatively flat, with the mountains in the far distance and Quinny's forest just to the north. Idris walked across the space, turning in circles with her dragon friend Zillix flying above her. She looked pleased by the region and asked how far…

The rooftops went by as Heather and her girls flew over the city, their wings spread wide. People below called up and waved as Heather found herself a whole new sense of celebrity. The fear of admitting who she was and what she wanted was gone. Now she was the brave princess who stood in the face of controversy and refused to be bullied. Whenever they landed, people gathered to congratulate them on their engagement and encourage them in their struggles. Several people even asked if they were interested…

“Do we really have to do this?” Umtha said as they stood on a high balcony ledge. Heather desperately wanted to say they didn't, but Frank stood behind them with his arms folded. His big gray form was an imposing wall, preventing them from running away. “Just jump off,” he insisted. “Use your wings and fly down.” Heather looked over her shoulder to the bat-like wings that sprouted from her back. She and Umtha had wings thanks to the Lilim and succubus class, but neither had dared to try to…
