Nyx showed me around the mansion, trying to give Lyall and her mate some peace and quiet from us, who would tease her endlessly.

She steered me through the endless hallways, showing me the huge study, the library, the basketball court among other things. She showed me her home in all it's glory, revealing it to be an amazing place where every inch was decorated in ancient Greek and Roman artifacts and architecture.

The walls were covered in stone where in them were carvings of scenes you would see as the back drop of a play. In one mural Poseidon rode on the back of his water chariot, being pulled by his Hippocampi, which were essentially mermaid horses, with the upper body of a horse and the lower half of a fish.

I couldn't tear my eyes away from the beautiful stone creations that were before me. So much so that Nyx actually had to close my mouth for me because I was in too much awe to notice.

"When did... How did...?"

"We pulled them from ancient ruins before they were assimilated by Romans or their invaders. Or before they were destroyed by the humans seeking to forget us." Nyx explained.

"Their so perfect! Like they were created yesterday!" I admitted.

"Magic prevents them from crumbling. But it is the maids who take such good care of it." Nyx added. "A beautiful thing really. A reminder of what once was."

"Do you miss Greece?" I asked.

"More than you know." She confessed. "But time moves ever onward."

"One day I'll learn a spell to go back in time."

"No." She told me.

"What? Why not?"

"I don't want to go back. I may miss it, but they're better off being memories." She explained.

"I suppose some things are better left in the past." I agreed.

Her hand went to her chest where she gripped her necklace through her shirt.

I took her hand gently. "You miss her?"

"I do. But the past is in the past. I'm okay with how things turned out. I've accepted them."

"I'm glad." I smiled softly. "She'd be really proud of you."

"You think?"

"I do." I kissed her cheek softly.

She smiled happily. "I love you."

"I love you too." I answered. "How are you holding up with your needs and such."

"My dear Devin, are you asking for another round?" Nyx smiled devilishly. Her tail flicked like that of a cat hunting prey.

"I mean't blood!" I groaned. "I can't go another round with you or you might kill me, no offense."

"While under normal circumstances, sex multiple times over a short period with a succubus is deadly, it wouldn't be the case for you."

I raised an eyebrow.

"You know how Lyall was talking about how your touch feels like sex?"

"Was that true?"

She laughed. "No. Or at least, not the feeling part."

"So it is but doesn't feel like sex?"

"Yes. The mana from your contact is a lot stronger than that from anyone else. Because I had sex with you, I'll be fine for a few days, and since I'm not interested in sex all the time I don't need nor want to go another round." She confessed. "At the same time, I can have sex and not absorb mana."
