"The rest don't even compare," Heda said, and there was more than a little truth to that. While many of her prior lovers could still be considered friends or at least they had parted on good terms, but Madison was different. Being with someone special to you really did change things.

Since she still had a free hand, Madison stroked Heda's legs, demonstrating that she had in fact learned things about Heda's body than not many who had come before her knew about. That spot on the back of her knees, or even just the sensitivity on the insides of her thighs; these were things that Madison knew. She exploited everything, caressing the back of the knees and kissing the inner thighs. She did not rely on clitoral stimulation to make Heda cum, though it did make it more fun and more explosive.

So that's what Madison did, launching a tongue-offensive on Heda's clitoral hood, snaking her way underneath and teasing the hard little nub while penetrating deeper with her fingers, spreading them as much as she could until Heda made an uncomfortable noise. She pulled just a little bit back, and she had her girlfriend right where she wanted her. Namely, cumming like a river beneath Madison's attentions.

Heda was gasping happily as Madison kissed her way back up that chiseled abdomen, delaying for a moment at the breasts, then peeking her head back out from under the covers to engage in a tongue-swapping kiss.

"When you get back," Heda said, "I'm gonna have all sorts of surprises waiting for you."

While still excited and pleased, that grin and that promise made Madison more than a little bit nervous.

Edgar and Kevin were sitting on the couch when Heda made her sleepy way downstairs to grab some orange juice the next morning.

“Hey," Heda said, scratching her ass through the shorts she had thrown on.

"Morning, oh delicate princess," Edgar replied, smiling at his sister.

Heda was not at her best in the morning.

"How's Madison?"

“She's okay," Heda replied from the kitchen. She came out and flopped down in a chair, juice in hand.

“She was really freaked, but she's calmed down."

“I bet. You spent most of the night ‘calming her down.

"Jealous?" Heda shot back with a grin. Her brothers all loved giving her shit about her sexual promiscuity.

He sighed.

"Actually, sort of. You had more fun that I did last night. But at least Kevin has an idea about how our perp is capturing his victims."

“Really? How?"

The red-headed alchemist picked up one of the files.

"Blood magic"

Heda's eyebrows shot up.

“And you arrived at that conclusion how?"

While blood magic was not exactly illegal in the magical world, it was highly scrutinized.

"Couple things," Kevin said.
