Chapter 278: *Like Succubi Do - Part 1*

"This better not be someplace shady," Kordia grumbled as Stella led the way through the back alleys of the 4th District.

"Oh trust me, it only looks shady from the outside," Stella teased as the three of them reached their destination.

"Welcome to the Horns and Tail!"

A surprisingly bright sign that had been clearly enchanted depicted the titular horns and tail and little else.

"I should have known the succubus would take us to a brothel," Kordia shook her head.

"Not just any brothel!"

As soon as Kordia opened the double-doors, a sultry voice called out "Welcome to the- Mistress Stella!"

"Mistress?" Kir asked.
