All through Seductions.

The Chaos in my belly goes he-he-ha

He-he-ha. He-he-ha.

The Chaos in my belly goes he-he-ha.

All through Seductions.”

My most favored, precious, precious power surges through my skin, and I throw my head back, laughing as it hits all the vile patrons below me.

Those poor—soon-to-be dead—beings can’t hear my hysteria or the sounds of my chains rattling around.

The music and the moans cover the fair warning I’m giving them.

They’re too busy with their orgies to notice.

The consensual and nonconsensual ones taking place.

No, no, no, Riven. Don’t think about that.

Soon enough, your Chaos will wash away the Harmony you gave them.

Another laugh belts out of me when heads twitch and understanding breaks through the clouding in people’s eyes.

Yes, that’s it. Come on, feeders. Get mad.

Get off your knees and stab the scum in their throats.

“Now, Riven dear.”

My entire body flinches, and I fight the natural reaction of my powers.

Don’t you do it, you fucking coward. Do not give in to the Harmony.

Let Chaos reign.

I thrash back and forth, trying with all my might to snatch down the damn pillars I’m chained to.

Let them crush me.

My fight wanes as she places the small tip of her fragile whip over my shoulder. It lies across my chest. In warning.

“I told you I’d only be gone a few minutes, and you were to behave. I needed to check up on my new toy that your father gifted me. Why couldn’t you just listen to me?”

I don’t utter a sound as Sabelline struts around me until she’s blocking my sight.

I’m not sure which is worse. Staring at her or staring at the atrocities happening around the Charging Chamber that the two of us caused.

The space isn’t large enough for all the company it keeps, plus the many beds, couches, swings, and cages. The black silk sheets draped across everything minimize the area even more.

This is the most popular room in Seductions.

This is her favorite room in her establishment.

My least favorite.

In here, there are no rules. Which, yes, I’ll admit, I don’t like rules.
