My Servant System-Chapter 1323 - 1322: Coming Off Of The High
Kat PoV
Yet again I was released only because the one holding onto me - like I was the reason she continued to live - had finally decided that she had done enough to me already.
That the sex we had and the blood she had drained was enough to satisfy her urges, that she was content and willing to end it here for now and to give me a moment to recuperate, to finally have some rest.
It was time I needed lest my blood run dry and my insides turn to mush after her incessant pounding, and Leone knew that, hence why I was no longer being cradled in her arms and instead allowed to lay atop the pillows like some delicate treasure.
My neck ached fiercely, my heart beat wildly in my chest and the heat dripping out of me was a reminder of how 'dangerous' these days had become, and yet there was no other way I wanted to be right now as I submerged myself into those pillows and just... lounged here.
Waiting, listening, watching... my eyes darted between Leone - who was sitting nearby, her eyes closed while her skin slowly lost its crimson luster - and the other two, who were still in the throes of passion even now.
Jahi's blue skin glistened with sweat as she thrust forwards with a vengeance, her hips never stopping once as she gouged out my mate and used her to satiate her urges; her hands gripped at Anput's cheeks like she was afraid she might send her flying forwards, and the sound of their flesh smacking together filled the tent like it was a drum solo.
As for my mate, she was never more beautiful than she was now, the bronzed skin of the Jackalkin glowing as she was taken so brutally in front of me, while her moans were so delicious, turning me on despite what I had just been made to endure.

When Leone finally returned to her usual self, the Vampire let out a cute gasp before swaying side to side, her cheeks still somewhat red as she stared at me embarrassedly, unsure of what to do or to say.
She was still showing clear signs of lust, but her lips being stained red thanks to my blood - alongside her chin and some of her throat - alongside her back likely being in ribbons right now made it hard for her to do anything besides focus on making herself presentable and attempt to wash away some of her embarrassment.
It was a hard task for her though, since my own neck and some of my chest were stained red thanks to her, and I could already tell that she was going to try and apologize for what 'she' had done... so I just waved her off and continued to watch what was going on nearby.
I was still needy, still wanting to be put into my place and be punished for what could have been, but at the same time I was lucid enough - and capable enough - to think of what we had encountered in that Trial, and what it could mean.
A stairway to somewhere else, where someone with some clear power difference resided; it was - to me - a rather obvious indication that this was a world that was 'layered' in the way that the world we resided in - the part of the world that we resided in, anyways - was considered the 'lower' portion.
That this was a pond resting nearby a lake, which likely rested nearby an ocean; a small piece of a gigantic puzzle, a piece that had faded colors and was fraying at the edges when compared to the piece beside it.
The power that we had was just considered mediocre at best, or considered rather low in this next step above us, and it was something I was familiar with since there were many novels and many theories that had the same idea.
If that was all a correct assumption, then the Labyrinthian had been designed the way it was on purpose; that this wasn't some natural occurring structure that was mysterious and had no real goal, but a testing grounds created to filter out the talents of this continent.
This city was in the center of such a dangerous place, filled with these Trials that were testing us in so many different ways, Trials that were laden with various kinds of challenges and restrictions that forced you to act in certain ways.
That created what was in essence a very fine strainer, sifting out the weak and unworthy and leaving behind only those that were acceptable to ascend this 'Stairway Imperata', which meant that we had stumbled onto something... fascinating.
Something that Saturna Vera had discovered as well, and something she had likely ascended with her Time Magic; a way to seek out further power and head somewhere more challenging, to learn even more about everything that was, that is, and that will be.
If I was right though, the question instantly rose to my mind of whether or not I wanted to acknowledge this staircase at all, if I wanted to even think about what might occur around it, let alone up it.
It just came out of nowhere, really, with so many different things happening down here on this level that I just couldn't really find it in me to spare the energy to ponder about what might be up there...
The guess I had was that it was a way to get ever closer to the Gods, or it might even be the realm in which the Gods truly reside, but that already was giving me a shaky feeling in my chest that definitely wasn't caused by the loss of blood.
I didn't know what to think about the 'Stairway Imperata', but I did know that the people I cared about the most - the things that I wanted to keep close to me no matter what - were already right here, lounging in this tent with me.
There were even more people that I cherished waiting for me back home; the two budding lives and the two lives that had already chiseled out quite a story for themselves, and that alone was enough to make me 'falter'.
I didn't know what to think... and that was sadly becoming far too common for me in recent times, something that I wanted to try and rectify, but considering how loopy I was right now because of my own actions - and their consequences - I wasn't too certain that I could fix it just yet.
