Adam was awoken by a knock on Rowena's bedroom door.
"Ugh, it's too early," Rowena complained as she snuggled closer to Adam and buried her head in his chest.
"What time is it?" Adam asked.
"Who cares? Just go back to sleep," Rowena replied.
"It might be important," Adam stated.
"If it were important, they wouldn't have bothered knocking," Rowena replied as another knock came from the door. "Just ignore them; they will go away eventually."
"Sure," Adam replied as he pulled Rowena into his embrace and planned to let sleep wash over him again.
Unfortunately, whoever was at the door had other plans, as it suddenly opened, allowing the pair to hear voices.
"Stacey, wait, we shouldn't just enter," Lorelie's voice warned.
"I'm fed up with waiting, and we have things to discuss," Stacey replied in an annoyed tone.
"And what if they're busy having morning sex? Is that something you really want to walk in on?" Lorelie asked in amusement.
"Gah," Stacey replied while in the middle of opening the door.
There was silence for a few more seconds before Stacey called out, "If you two are having sex, tell me know, as that's not something I want to see."
"We're having sex," Rowena replied in as loud a voice as she could muster while suppressing a yawn.
"If that's the case, why do you sound so sleepy?" Stacey retorted before saying with a smirk. "If sex with Adam is boring you, I'll be more than happy to have extra sessions with him."
"Fine, fine, we're not having sex," Rowena admitted in annoyance. "Now what do you want? It's still early."
"Hardly, it's almost noon," Stacey scoffed as she and Lorelie entered the room, closing the door behind them.
"Noon?" Adam asked in surprise as he opened his eyes, only to quickly close them again as the sun shone in through the window.
"Gah, that's bright," Adam complained.
"She's lying; it's only about midmorning," Lorelie stated as she sat down on one of the bedroom's comfy chairs. "Still, that's rather late for you two. Did you tire yourselves out last night?"
"Adam was especially aggressive," Rowena declared. "It felt amazing, and we went for so many rounds."
"Ew, ew, ew, stop, stop," Stacey complained. "You know we don't talk about that stuff with each other."
"My bad," Rowena replied with a tired chuckle before asking. "So what brings you two here so early?"
"We wanted to discuss something with you before we get distracted by other things," Lorelie replied.
"That's convenient, as I wanted to discuss something with you three as well," Adam replied as he slowly opened his eyes, allowing them to get used to the brightness.
"Do you want to go first?" Lorelie asked.
"No, I'm still waking up, so it's probably best if you two go first," Adam replied.
"Ok," Lorelie nodded before saying. "We're starting to get concerned for Aphrodite."
"For Aphrodite?" Rowena repeated as she finally lifted her head to look at Stacey and Lorelie. "Not about Aphrodite?"
"That's correct," Lorelie replied. "Has she mentioned to you about needing to feed?"
As she heard the question, Rowena's eyes widened with realisation as she replied, "No, she hasn't."
"Is this to do with her feeding discussion from last night?" Adam asked.
Lorelie nodded before explaining, "Aphrodite's been with us for going on several months now, yet she hasn't fed once. Sooner or later she's going to start ageing.
While we don't think she's reached the point of proving her faithfulness to the group, we do believe she at least deserves the right to feed. Also, we think it's time we tested whether you're able to resist her."
Rowena propped herself up on Adam's chest and gave the pair a serious look as she asked, "You're suggesting that we let her feed on Adam?"
"Like, have sex?" Adam asked in surprise.
"Yes to grandmother, no to boyfriend," Stacey replied.
"A simple blowjob should suffice," Lorelie stated.
"No sexual activity from Aphrodite is simple, Lorelie. You do understand the risk involved in this, right?" Rowena asked.
"I am, but it's a test that needs to happen sooner or later, right?" Lorelie asked.
"Well, you're not wrong," Rowena admitted.
Adam saw the looks of worry in his three girlfriends' eyes and so asked, "Is there no way to protect myself against her… I suppose the best word is charms?"
"I'm not sure how charming having your dick shocked is, honey." Rowena laughed. "But to answer your question, no, there is no known way to resist becoming addicted to a Succuba. You're either strong enough, or you're not."
"And if you're not, sex with us will seem boring compared to it with Aphrodite," Stacey added.
"Then what if I just refuse to let her join?" Adam asked.
"That's an option, babe, but one we would rather not take," Lorelie explained. "Other than the fact that she is our friend, having her join the harem and being loyal to you would boost your prestige in the universe."
"It's true," Rowena nodded. "Being the only man in the universe to conquer and tame Aphrodite would carry a lot of weight in certain circles."
"What she means is that men will curse you while their wives will love you," Stacey teased.
"Funny," Adam replied while smirking.
Lorelie smiled before asking, "Then are you both in agreement?"
"I guess it can't be helped," Rowena replied before asking. "When should we test it?"
"And here you originally hated the idea of letting her get her hands on me, or, in this case, mouth," Adam teased.
"Oh, shut up, pervert," Rowena retorted while pinching him.
Lorelie chuckled at their banter before saying, "The sooner the better, though it's probably best to wait until after you claim Tephe and Revi."
"Right, there's still that," Adam sighed.
"Just hurry up and claim them both already," Stacey complained. "You were never this intense when it came to the three of us."
"I thought you were past the whole seeing Tephe as your sister thing?" Rowena asked.
"It's not something you can get over instantly," Adam replied. "Also, this will be the first time I'm the aggressive one. Each of you and even Jenny were the ones who pursued me."
"My, aren't we special," Stacey remarked while rolling her eyes.
"Just be aggressive, like you were with me last night," Rowena suggested before adding. "Or do I need to get Erkath to do a repeat of last night?"
"Repeat of last night?" Lorelie asked as she and Stacey both looked at Adam suspiciously.
Adam glared at Rowena, who stuck out her tongue, before he sighed and said, "That's what I wanted to discuss with you all.
Rowena already knows this because she was sitting next to me and gave the okay for it to continue, but Erkath made advances on me last night while we were eating."
"She did?" Lorelie asked in surprise.
"When? I didn't notice anything," Stacey remarked.
"Her tail got a little… mischievous," Adam replied.
"Yeah, if you call unzipping your trousers and invading them mischievous," Rowena giggled.
"You okayed this, Rowena?" Lorelie asked, to which Rowena shrugged.
"Tell us everything," Stacey demanded, to which Adam nodded before beginning the story.
"Of all people, I never expected Erkath to be into something like that," Lorelie stated in surprise.
"You're not the only one," Rowena replied. "I was shocked when I saw what she was doing."
"So what are all your feelings on this?" Adam asked.
"I'm personally fine with it since I was hoping to persuade her to join," Rowena replied. "
"No surprise there since you let it happen and want Erkath to join," Stacey replied.
"Why don't you tell us your feelings on this, babe?" Lorelie asked instead of answering.
Adam nodded and thought for a moment before asking the same question Spector asked him last night, "I may be the leader of this group relationship or harem, but what benefits does that actually bring me as leader?"
Adam's question brought pause to the three women, causing them each to fall into thought for several minutes.
Finally, Stacey was the first to speak as she asked, "Are you saying that the rules should be changed to allow you to have fun with anyone?"
"Not anyone, no," Adam replied. "But maybe potential harem members. What would have happened if I had stopped Erkath from doing what she did?"
"It would have put her in an awkward situation and possibly even exposed her activities to the rest of us, if not the entire restaurant," Rowena replied.
"Hmm," Stacey replied before turning to Lorelie and asking, "Lorelie?"
"I'm fine with it," Lorelie replied, surprising them all. "As long as your activities stay with only possible harem members, I see no problem with it, as it allows you to see if they match your tastes."
"Really?" Stacey asked in surprise.
"You're the one who came up with the rule in the first place," Adam added.
"And then I nearly broke it," Lorelie replied. "So, in a way, I have no right to refuse this suggestion of yours."
