Bella Hayward
Two weeks.
It had been two weeks. That thought ran through my mind as I rubbed the polishing into the gilded frame of the Gizzamuluke's painting for the dozenth time. I cleaned it once a day at least. I didn't trust that grinning cat.
The thing leered at me as I worked around the edge of the painting. He hungered for me, but he was still bound. Still imprisoned in his painting. He couldn't harm me so long as I poured the magic of the Hayward into it. I could feel it trembling through me.
Two weeks... How much longer until Lance returned?
I finished with the frame. I then pulled out a cleaner that was gentle and wouldn't harm the varnish. I was certain really paintings weren't cleaned like this, but it was all... a ritual. Asuka had called it "sympathetic magic" a few days ago when she emerged from her room. She was working on some AI script to search for "anomalies."
Sympathetic magic. I was doing a ritual, an act that invoked magic by seeming to do this everyday occurrence. Symbolic or something. I just knew I didn't want this creature bursting out. It was dangerous. It frightened me more than any of the other Imprisoned.
And that included the Malevolence we captured two weeks ago. I had seen that thing in the... well, not flesh. But in reality. It had killed that poor nun and would have done more if it wasn't for Lance and us maids. We had driven it back.
Two weeks...
I finished wiping down the painting, leaving it with a wet gleam. The green eyes followed me as I moved on to clean elsewhere. Lance was coming back. He had to return. He would save his mother from the Seductress. I ached for him to be back.
I knew I would see him again.
I reached the bust of a man with a warm smile and yet he had such sinister eyes. I pulled out the right polish for the marble and started cleaning it. That smile was so inviting. I shuddered. This thing lured in victims with a veneer of friendliness.
Like the killer who built a fire in the dark to attract the lost and the frightened. A beacon of warmth in the cold. A lie. I scrubbed hard at it.

Lance Hayward
The Seductress knelt, her hands clasped behind her back with golden manacles. She had stopped laughing. Now she glowered. The reality of her situation had settled in her, I supposed. She glared up at me, the black garter stark about her pale thigh.
"What is going on?" she demanded. "What have you done to me."
"The impossible," Cali said, grabbing her blonde hair, the same hue as my mother's. "He bound you without a contract. You made a fatal error possessing his unborn daughter. I can see it now. Blood is power, but it is also connection. You had a bond with him, and he exploited that to make you his. He created... a new hue."
"No one has ever made a new hue?" I asked.
"Not since the contract," Cali said, studying the Seductress's black eyes. "She is your daughter, Master, and she is the Seductress."
I glanced at the manacles. "Does she have to stay bound like that? She's a maid now."
"She is, but do you want her running loose?" Cali glanced at me, her purple eyes unreadable. "Do you fully trust her?"
I glanced at the Seductress. Anger burned in her eyes. She put on a seductive smile, though. My cock stirred with desire for her. "No, she's a viper. I can see it in her eyes. She wants to lure me in so she can strike."
"She's a weapon, Master Hayward. A maid to be unleashed."
"Daddy," cooed the Seductress, "you can trust me. You bound me."
Those black eyes... I shuddered. "I definitely cannot trust you."
Whimpers of pain drew my attention. Now that the shadows were gone, I could see that all my maids were chained around the depression that we were in. Blood dripped from them all. It wasn't just me she had bled.
Only Mother was uninjured. Fear shot through me as I rushed over to my mother. She didn't look stoned any longer. She looked horrified as she stared at Kylie and Andrea who were side by side. Her daughters were so pale, slumped over.
"Free them," I snarled at the Seductress. "NOW!"
She gasped as my power slammed into her. The black chains melted. All the maids save my mother collapsed to the ground. Fear rushed through me. My mother hugged me tight, but they needed her milk right now.
"Nurse Andrea first!" I said. "Cali, we have to bandage them."
"Yes, Master," Cali said.
Mom rushed to Andrea while I went to Kylie. I ripped a strip of cloth off her uniform and bound it over the cut on her right thigh. It was almost a mirror to her pink garter. I wrapped the black cloth around the wound, binding it tight.
I moved on to Aunt Nancy. I ripped off the cloth from her. Mother nursed Andrea as I worked. I moved as quickly as I could, my heart pounding a wild beat in my chest. The Seductress wanted to bleed them slowly, but...
They were so pale.
I bound Mrs. Kenning. Opal. Marsha, Sister Martha Ruth, Carla, Gloria. Cali was working, too. She had Seo-Yun, Deidre, Ms. Docea, Ashley, Janiqua. My mother and Andrea were moving to the maids that hadn't been bandaged yet, Veronica and Tabitha.
The Seductress watched, kneeling and bound by my golden power. She had a smile on her lips. It amused her that we were trying to save my maids. That she had caused them all this pain with her scheme. Anger swelled in me.
But we soon had their wounds bound. Mother and Andrea moved swiftly. They breastfed each of the maids. They gulped down the milk and were soon standing up and we had more to help with the bandaging.
Finally, they were all back on their feet. Not fully healed, but enough that they weren't dying until they could be. Mother and Andrea were breastfeeding two at a time, maids gulping down the restorative milk as others were taking up positions on the perimeter to guard us.
"Set up the cottage," I told Cali.
She glanced at me. "Before I do, you need to fashion a golden dildo with your power. The Seductress's bonds must be maintained. Every hour, either your or a maid with the golden dildo, must fuck her."
"For how long?" I asked.
"Until the end of time." She glanced at the Seductress. "She must be kept subdued until you must unleash her against your enemies."
I nodded and concentrated on that. It was like making the manacles. I diverted a piece of the golden power to form the dildo. It appeared in my hand, a golden lance of a different sort. A weapon to be wielded by my maids.
Cali formed into the cottage in the middle of the clearing. I grabbed the Seductress by the arm and lifted her to her feet. She pressed against me in such a loving way like one of my other maids would, but I could feel the lie.
The Seductress... She would never stop trying to seduce me.
