"She looks a lot different now, but she's still recognizably Bella... just with a few new additions," Morrigan said as she examined Bella in her new, much larger, form.
Bella was now similar in height to myself, though still slightly shorter. That made her somewhere in the ballpark of eight feet tall like I was in this form. She had long spiraling horns similar to mine but in a slightly different curve pattern. They were notably similar to ram horns though, as opposed to deer antlers, which gave her a rather unique look. She had large black wings and a thin black tail resembling the same sleek and slippery black flesh that I had. Her eyes were still pink, but now she had vertical slit pupils that made her look like she had snake eyes or maybe cat eyes. One detail I hadn't noticed right away was that she had noticeable fangs where her canines would be on a different animal. They looked a bit out of place on her deer-shaped head, which gave her a much more predatory look, especially when combined with her other changes. The brown part of her fur looked a bit darker but the cream color of her belly and heart-shaped spots remained the same. Her breasts were also a bit larger and were also engorged with milk like mine were in this form. Between her legs she had both sexes at the moment. Her cock was more or less the same but was proportionally larger with the rest of her.
"I feel fine. Better than before, if I'm honest," Bella said as she let us examine her.
It had been about an hour since our midday escapade and the following nap. The entire brothel had been buzzing about Bella's transformation ever since it happened from what Morrigan had told me. Since so many were watching us make love through the bond, lots of the succubi in the brothel at the time vicariously experienced the transformation as it happened. There had already been some curiosity about my own transformation into a greater succubus the first time, but Bella's transformation was essentially confirmation that it was on the table for others too. We still didn't know what the precise mechanism behind it was, but we now know it is possible for others.
"Tell me again about that other mana you saw?" Morrigan said while turning toward me.
I shrugged. "I wasn't in the clearest headspace when I saw it, but there was a second aspected mana that Bella had absorbed shortly before her transformation. It was more than just lust mana. I've become pretty good at recognizing that mana type at a glance. Lust mana is all over the place whenever we have sex. This was different."
"You don't think it's something like love mana do you?" Bella asked.
Morrigan gave her a flat look. "I'd hope it's not something as silly as that. This isn't a children's story."
"Too much sex for that," I joked.
Morrigan sighed but I could see the hint of a smile on her face. "Regardless, keep an eye out for more of it. If I can grab some of it, I may be able to get a better idea of what the conditions for... transforming? evolving? However we want to put it, are."
Bella stretched her wings and turned to get a better look at them. "Do you think I can fly now?"
Morrigan nodded. "I don't see why you wouldn't be able to fly if Lilith was able to figure it out."
"I haven't had any time to attempt flying again since the last time, but I think our practice with internal mana manipulation since then will make it easier for you to learn," I said.
Bella smiled. "I'm pretty excited to try it. I was scared to see you disappear into the horizon, but flying is something I've had dreams about before. Doing it together would be nice."
"I'm conflicted about it, to be honest," Morrigan said. "On one hand, it would be reassuring for you two to go together, but on the other hand, Bella is our healer. If anything goes wrong, she may not be able to heal herself."
"Nelly is receiving priest training at the temple of Velenthel right now. I'm not sure how strong her healing will be, but combined with her... milk, she may be able to compensate if something happens to Bella," I said.
Morrigan's face flushed at the mention of milk and she fidgeted momentarily. She recovered fast enough that I chose not to tease her about it, this time. I could tell that some group play with Morrigan and Nelly would be fun down the line.
She cleared her throat and continued. "Did the change update your status, Bella?"
"Yes, my race says greater succubus now, when it used to just say succubus and lesser succubus before that," Bella said. "Some of my other abilities updated too, like [Greater Succubus Shifting]."
"Do you think it's just a matter of time?" I asked Morrigan.
"Ehhh..." Morrigan shook her head. "No, I don't think so. If it was just about collecting enough lust aspect mana or waiting long enough, I think it would be odd for her to absorb that second type of mana you saw. I think something triggered it. I just don't know what. It's too bad no one else was there to witness it."
"Oh, so you admit to liking to watch then?" I joked.
This time Morrigan couldn't hide her smile and she playfully pushed me. "You're incorrigible. Do you feel different when you're like that?" she asked.
I looked down at my true form and I knew what she was getting at. "Yes, actually. It can be somewhat subtle though. I feel more confident, more dominant... and a bit more possessive than I would normally like to admit. It felt like a rush when I first transform."
"Oh! Yes, I feel that way too!" Bella said excitedly. "It feels even stronger for me. Subtle is not how I would describe these feelings." Her finger trailed up Morrigan's side and slid up to grope her breast. "It's taking a lot not to push Morrigan down right now," she whispered into her ear.
Morrigan squirmed and gently removed Bella's hand from her breast and scooted away, though I could tell it wasn't for lack of interest. Morrigan was just more determined to stay on track right now.
"That is a little concerning, it's not unheard of for... Uh, don't take this the wrong way, but for monsters to have sudden changes in temperament when evolving into new forms," Morrigan said.
"Hold on. Monsters can change forms the way we do?" I asked.
"Not precisely, but similar to the transition from lesser to greater, yes. I'm not suggesting that this means that you're monsters of course, just that the system is recognizing the way you're evolving in a similar way. Maybe we should use magic to see if either of you have manifested a monster core, just to be sure."
"There isn't. I examined my body using healing magic shortly after I woke back up and most things were the same. I would have noticed a monster core forming." She grinned from ear to ear. "No monster core, but it took. I'm pregnant now," Bella happily stated.
Morrigan and I both froze for a moment, but for different reasons. She was the first to react. "Wha- but how? I thought you said you couldn't get pregnant!"
"I couldn't until today! When we were at the temple of Velenthel, the goddess herself appeared and we bartered the ability for all succubi to be virile or fertile depending on how their genitals are shifted. Things... progressed quickly, but I couldn't be happier," she said as she caressed her belly.
"Okay, you're going to have to explain what happened to me later, but bartered? What did the goddess want?" Morrigan asked incredulously.
This question finally flustered Bella a little, but her new confident attitude while in this form let her move past it quickly. "The goddess asked me... to bear four of Lilith's children in exchange."
"F-four?" she asked, gazing down at Bella's tummy. "All at once?"
"Oh! No, I don't think so! Or maybe rather, I hope not. She didn't specify exactly, but it didn't sound like she was asking me to have quadruplets," Bella sputtered.
Morrigan's lips pressed into a line and she looked back up at Bella. "I don't know if it's better to get it all over with at once or to be constantly pregnant for four years."
"Three actually," I corrected.
Morrigan gave me a flat look. "You're not going to let her rest between?"
I put my hands up in defense. "That wasn't my point."
Bella laughed. "I got the impression that Goddess Velenthel would prefer as little waiting as possible, but the idea of being constantly pregnant... does have some appeal to it..."
Morrigan sighed. "That's just your horny brain talking, talk to me again when you can hardly walk." Morrigan's attitude faded and she scooted closer to Bella. "Still though, this is great news. I'm glad you were able to get what you had been wanting." She leaned in and gave Bella a kiss.
Bella pulled Morrigan into a hug, which looked a bit funny since the normally smaller Bella was now cradling a smaller Morrigan. Morrigan pulled herself away before things could go on much further and sighed. "The idea of becoming pregnant has never really appealed to me... it wasn't something I had ever seen myself wanting as someone who exclusively preferred the company of other women... At the same time though, the idea of being around to help raise your kids... some part of me is delighted by the idea."
"You don't have to have any kids yourself if you don't want to, Morrigan," I made sure to explicitly say. "I'm... capable as well, yet I'm not sure how I feel about that either."
Morrigan nodded. "I know. I know I can trust you not to make me do anything I don't want to do. It's more that... I had never even considered it a possibility to willingly become pregnant." She shook her head. "Any fantasies about becoming pregnant came with the unfortunate assumption that it would be with a man I was forced to sleep with... so I never found the idea appealing. I'll... have to think about what I actually want to do now that things have changed for me. Even the idea of... members don't turn me off the way they used to after some of the time we've spent together. As long as they're attached to someone I find attractive, or someone I love."
Bella smiled and pulled Morrigan against her again. "I love you too, Morrigan. I'm glad we've become so close."
Morrigan kissed Bella's cheek and smiled back. "I love you too, Bella. I couldn't ask for two better people to share my life with."
Noticeably absent from this conversation was Mimi and I couldn't feel her in the brothel. "Where is Mimi at?" I asked.
"From what I heard, Raya, Sibyl, and Mimi left sometime this morning and haven't gotten back yet. I'm not sure where they went."
I nodded. "I suppose we'll catch up with her later about all of this. I'm a bit curious what her take on pregnancy is."
"You're looking to knock up Mimi too?" Morrigan asked teasingly.
"No, I'm just not sure how she'll react based on her history in the dungeon. She wasn't raised by her kin. From what she's told me, she probably just came into existence fully formed. She had to fend for herself immediately or risk being eaten by the other mimics."
"Mimi has also been a succubus the longest after Bella," Morrigan added. "There haven't been any other greater succubi until now, so if time does play a role in the transformation, she would be the most likely to change next."
"I suspect Mimi might be different actually. She was technically a monster and a demon when we met, and her monster abilities blended into her succubi ones. I think it's possible she won't develop the same way we did."
"That's true," Morrigan conceded. "We'll have to keep an eye on her as well."
"Enough chatting, I'm still horny," Bella said with a predatory grin as she pulled Morrigan into her lap. "Let's take off these clothes and have a bit more fun before we go and see if Oceane is available."
Morrigan looked a bit flushed from Bella's advances but she didn't complain as my newly confident succubus deer girl began stripping off Morrigan's maid outfit. Morrigan bit her lip, but wasn't complaining anymore. Most of her intellectual curiosity had been sated and now she looked ready to enjoy her carnal curiosity with us instead.
"I know you love my breasts little kitty, come drink my milk," Bella whispered to Morrigan. The blush across Morrigan's face intensified and she allowed herself to be pulled against Bella's chest and have a taste of her cream. Bella had thoughtfully removed her shaft for now, so I did the same as I pressed my breasts into Morrigan's back.
I kissed her neck and caressed her body as she drank her fill of Bella's milk. We spent some time appreciating Bella's transformation for the next few bells.
What do you think?
