  Gunshots rang out.

  Two of the redheaded women jerked their heads. As the women fell over, the others continued to walk at a steady pace.

  Paragon understood what Grant was saying, that they could kill Aphrodisia once and for all with a few shots, that Aphrodisia could kill thousands as opposed to a handful dying, but he couldn't just stand by and let innocent people die. That's probably what Aphrodisia was hoping they would do. He didn't want to be naive and could see Grant's point about finishing Aphrodisia off, but if Paragon was going to be a hero, he had to stand up for what he believed in. And killing innocent women under Aphrodisia's control wasn't what he believed in.

  He didn't know what to do. It wouldn't take more than a few seconds before the other women were killed. He couldn't stop all the snipers in that space of time. He could try to jump down and make himself a human shield. He could fly faster than he could run. Maybe he could reach them. But once he got close enough to block the bullets, he would be under Aphrodisia's power. That could lead to her making him do anything, including killing other people.

  He also wasn't prepared to let the police kill Aphrodisia in cold blood.

  Paragon felt like he had an impossible choice. Either he jumped in to stop the death of Aphrodisia's hostages and let himself fall under her spell or do nothing, let the women die, and live with the guilt of knowing he could have saved them.

  This wasn't what being a hero was supposed to be like. He knew superheroes often had to make tough choices, but he hadn't prepared himself for anything like this.

  He looked up, wishing Heavenly Hawk was there. With her Hawk-Vision, maybe she would have been able to tell which one was Aphrodisia, and tell the snipers which one to take out. But she was nowhere in sight. He had to handle this all by himself.

  He leaped off the roof, and activated his Flight power, sending him soaring across the open square to the wrecked limo where the four redheaded women continued their walk towards the mayor's platform. They didn't even seem to notice the ones who had been killed and walked at a steady pace. Even their boots hit the asphalt at the same time.

  Before he could reach the women, a white blur fell from the sky, Heavenly Hawk moving at lightning speed. As she landed, Heavenly Hawk spun around with her wings flapping to make a windstorm that swirled around her and the four women, throwing up clouds of dust that blocked the view.

  Heavenly Hawk held out her hand and called out, "Stop! Aphrodisia's not with them!"

  Paragon stopped to hover in the air. "What?"

  Hawk thrust out a finger. "It's a bloody trick! She's over there!"

  He turned to follow her finger to a woman in the crowd wearing a long black coat and a large black hat. She raised her head to reveal glowing red eyes and let the coat fall off her shoulders, revealing a curvy body enhanced by her tight red bikini.

  "Hello, everyone," she said into a microphone, and her voice carried from the limo instead. "Did you miss me?"

  NEW MISSION: STOP APHRODISIA

  REWARD: 30,000 XP

  Paragon's heart sank. She had pulled a double blind on them, using a mic to get her voice to come out of the limo and getting them to focus on it and the six redheaded women while she just walked right into the crowd.

  Someone screamed, and Paragon raised himself to attack her when the familiar sensation from the classroom swept over him.

  Too late.

  A flush of heat ran through his body from the top of his scalp down to his toes. His erection surged to life in his pants within seconds, making sweat break out on his forehead. He looked at Heavenly Hawk, and she looked so incredibly beautiful. Her golden hair surrounded her elegant face perfectly, and her chest rose and fell faster, making her already large breasts even more defined under her costume. Her wings fanned the air behind her slowly as she took on a hungry look in her eyes right before she lunged into Paragon's arms.

  He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her tightly against him as the two of them kissed passionately. She moaned into his lips, and her hands pressed up against his back, urging him closer. Her heaving breasts crushed against his chest as he pushed her tongue into her mouth and she sucked on the writhing tip. She moaned against him and her body pushed against his and all he could think about was how he hadn't been inside her in almost two days. The last time they had made love had been on the roof of her Nest, and he craved the moist warmth of her pussy around his hard cock again more than anything he could imagine.

  On some level, he knew Aphrodisia did this to him. He knew she was distracting him so she could do whatever she was here to do. He didn't care. He needed Heavenly Hawk.

  "Give it to me," Heavenly Hawk gasped.

  Her hands went to his waist and yanked it down so his stiffening flesh popped out into the cool air. His hands went to the waist of her costume to pull up her top, freeing her incredibly firm breasts. The nipples thickened between his lips as he ducked down to lick and suck on them and her hand wrapped around his shaft to jerk it hard.

  In the corner of his eye, he could see other people in the crowd turning to each other and tearing off their clothes as well. The screams of terror had been replaced by moans of pleasure. An old man had a young woman bent over a car as he rammed into her while an elderly woman rode a young man lying on the street.

  Aphrodisia called out, "Now play nice, my darlings, and Mommy will be right back."

  On some level, he knew that Aphrodisia walked into the laboratory but he didn't care. He couldn't think of anything other than his urgent need. He just ripped down the waist of Heavenly Hawk's white pants and thrust himself into her as deep as he could.

  ***

  Doctor Horne had been waiting in the limo while it came down the street to the laboratory, watching the six other decoy Aphrodisias making out with each other the whole time. They all wore red wigs and tight bikinis that showed off full breasts and long legs, and he stroked his cock while watching them tease and rub each other's bodies.

  Horne knew that Aphrodisia had a hold on him and was manipulating him to help her, but he didn't care. He had lost two marriages because of his sexual dysfunction, and had sex three times since joining Aphrodisia, more than he had in the past year. Horne loved it.

  A loud crash made the limo jerk forward and come to a sudden halt. He smelled smoke as Aphrodisia's voice came out of a speaker mounted on the ceiling. "It's showtime, ladies. You know what to do. Just walk."

  The six women climbed out and Aphrodisia spoke from the speaker again, "I know that was you, Paragon. Well done, lover. I suppose I'll have to walk."

  Horne watched the doubles of Aphrodisia walk out of sight of his window. He knew the plan, but still felt a thrill at watching them move into action. This would work.

  After a few seconds, shots rang out, screaming filled the air, and Horne saw people running past the car windows.

  The doors of the limo swung open again, and two large men looked in. He didn't know what lay ahead but Doctor Horne forced his swollen cock into his pants and climbed out.

  The two men walked Doctor Horne through a crowd which had fallen into another orgy like at the university. Horne enjoyed the view of dozens of naked women in all sorts of sexual positions as he passed by them, heading to the doors of the laboratory. He even saw Paragon feverishly grinding against Heavenly Hawk with their pants around their ankles. Aphrodisia's power seemed unstoppable.

  Horne was cooperating with Aphrodisia for another reason: power. He hoped that by analyzing her power, he could find a way to give himself the same power or even more.

  Aphrodisia walked ahead of them, and the crowds parted to allow her to pass. She hummed softly over the moans and cries of the men and women around her, occasionally stroking bare flesh with her hands.

  When she reached the platform, Aphrodisia took delicate steps up to it, and smiled at the mayor who lay naked on a middle-aged woman, pounding his hips into her at a furious pace.

  "My my my," Aphrodisia sighed, "it looks like the ma
yor is screwing someone else besides the city for a change."

  She picked up the pair of golden scissors left by the mayor and snipped the red ribbon stretched across the doors of the laboratory, then pushed the doors open and walked inside.

  They walked into a long hall with the Marino Company logo made of tiles on the floor. The footsteps of Horne and the two men with him echoed off the walls, but Aphrodisia's red boots made only the barest whisper.

  Aphrodisia led the way to a long hallway where they wound through rooms with scientific equipment. They occasionally passed a few people having sex with each other, but the lab was mostly empty.

  They came to a room at the end of the hall with consoles mounted on every wall around a huge white tube suspended over a bed.

  Horne nodded. "This is it."

  She climbed into the bed while nodding at Doctor Horne. "You know what to do, Doctor."

  "Yes, of course." Horne went to the control console, twitching his fingers in excitement. The hyperionic imaging scanner was cutting edge, something only a handful of scientists around the world had operated. Fortunately, he had studied extensively about its properties before arriving. He typed commands and clicked icons on the interface as the inside of the scanner began to glow and hum.

  The bed slid into the depths of the plastic tube while a blue light bathed over Aphrodisia.

  Horne worked on the console and studied the screens as three-dimensional graphics of Aphrodisia's body began to appear. He studied the outlines, tracing the pathway of her blood, skin, and even her hormones. Most useful of all, he could follow the path of the microscopic nanites that formed her ATLAS implant and where they clustered in her.

  Studying the information made him smile. "I see it. Extraordinary. Aphrodisia, you have a unique gland in your brain that produces and releases an incredibly powerful energy. So powerful that it can influence someone from almost a mile away. The energy triggers the release of testosterone in men and women, and also oxytocin and vasopressin--"

  "Spare me, doctor," Aphrodesia said from inside the scanner. "All I need to know is if you can do what I ask."

  Horne couldn't stop his hands from trembling as he traced a path on his screen. "Oh, yes. I can increase the range and strength of the gland."

  "Will I be able to reach all of Eros City?"

  Horne waved a hand. "All of Eros City? Yes. But that's just the beginning. With the right mechanism, I could boost your power a thousand times, maybe even a million times its current strength. You could saturate the Earth's atmosphere and reach anywhere in the world. I might even be able to cure your condition so you could feel sexual pleasure again. And with this data, I could revolutionize medicine, biology, and sexual research."

  He flipped a switch that caused the scanner to shut down, and the bed pushed Aphrodisia out of it. As she sat up, she gave him a warm smile. "Yes, doctor, I'm sure you'll win the Nobel Prize. If there's anyone left on Earth to give it to you."

  She climbed off the bed, and her butt swayed as she walked out. "Time to go."

  ***

  Paragon couldn't seem to get enough of Heavenly Hawk as he forced himself deeper into her. The two of them did it standing up, her holding him by the hips while he sank his fingers into the cheeks of her ass. They moaned into each other's mouths as they ground their hips into each other.

  "Yes," Heavenly Hawk moaned. "I need you inside me all the time. Don't ever stop, darling."

  "Aphrodisia," he grunted, and part of him began to focus, struggling against her control. He tried to force his concentration back to her, but it quickly faded in a wave of joy. He didn't know why he kept fighting what felt so good.

  Pleasure surged through him every time he sank into Hawk, and he felt her body quivering against him from orgasm after orgasm until her juices ran down their thighs. His body tensed from the climax building up inside him, but he hadn't reached it yet. He felt laser focused on their sweat-soaked bodies against each other, almost tuning out the men and women surrounding them in a circle of sexual excitement.

  When his hips stiffened and he finally came, filling Heavenly Hawk, he actually saw stars flashing around him from the power surging through him. His legs gave out and he sank to his knees, pinning her to the ground under him, leaving her squirming.

  In that moment, the trance broke, and he could think clearly again.

  Aphrodisia came strutting out of the laboratory, smiling while turning her piercing eyes to him. "Oh, baby, you look so good on your knees."

  Paragon climbed onto his feet, knowing he didn't look tough with his pants around his ankles and a dripping penis, but he needed to strike now while he could. It seemed like his refractory period after his orgasm weakened her power over him. It didn't completely free him because he still felt like grabbing her jiggling breasts, and Heavenly Hawk's hands groping his thighs made him want to plunge back into her, but he grit his teeth to fight his urges and throw himself forward.

  He pulled up his pants and flew through the air towards Aphrodisia. If he could knock her down or maybe even knock her out before she could target him, maybe her power wouldn't be enough to stop him.

  He rushed over the heads of the sighing, whimpering couples and groups sprawled on the grass, asphalt, and concrete. Aphrodisia's shimmering eyes narrowed towards him.

  She held up her hand with the palm out. "That's enough."

  And he couldn't understand why he would want to knock down or knock out such a hot and sexy woman like Aphrodisia. If anything, he wanted to wrap his arms around her, tear off her bikini, and plunge himself into her up to his balls. She wanted him to stop flying, and he did, coming to a sudden halt just a few feet away from her hand.

  Aphrodisia giggled. "Oh, you're so sweet. I love a man with stamina. But if you're going to be one of my slaves, you need to prove to me that you're worthy. Oh, ladies and gentlemen, please kill Paragon for me."

  NEW MISSION: ESCAPE THE MOB

  REWARD: 10,000 XP

  The crowd all untangled themselves from each other and rose off the ground to stumble towards Paragon. He turned to look into faces twisted with anger or desire, he couldn't tell which. Hands reached for his arms and legs. Even Heavenly Hawk had begun to crawl over to him with her boobs swaying under her.

  Paragon's mind seemed clear again, and he could feel the urgency to stop Aphrodisia. She headed for another white limo that had pulled up to the curb in front of the laboratory, along with two muscular guys and the professor she had taken from the university. He had to get her before she got away again, but the people pressing into him stood between them.

  Someone threw a punch at his face, but he barely felt it. A woman tried to kick him in the balls, and he didn't feel that either. He used his arm to brush them off, and they went flying.

  +250 XP

  +250 XP

  "Get back," he yelled, but the rest kept coming.

  This seemed like a waste of time. The crowd couldn't really hurt him, and he had to focus on Aphrodisia. It seemed like she had released him from her control, and he wasn't sure if that was a good thing because it meant he was free or a bad thing because she didn't consider him a threat anymore.

  He used his Flight power to launch himself into the air and flew over the crowds. Hands groped and swiped at him to pull him down, but he easily stayed out of their grasp, focused on Aphrodisia as she climbed into the back of the limo.

  With a roar, Alley Cat leaped from the crowd, grabbed onto his waist, and held on. Before he could even reach for her, she scrambled up onto his back, straddled him, and began swiping her claws at his back and neck.

  "Stay the fuck away from her!" Alley Cat yelled.

  Her claws weren't sharp enough to pierce his bulletproof skin, but were sharp enough to hurt. He grunted and spun himself around in a corkscrew in the air so she fell off.

  +500 XP

  She landed on a car, flipped off to land on her feet on the ground, and ran after him.

  The limo began to pull away from the cu
rb just as he reached it. He wouldn't let her get away this time. He plunged his fingers into the metal roof to let him tear it free.

  Aphrodisia sat in the back seat, along with her four other duplicates. No, when he looked down at their faces, he saw just vacant stares, not glowing eyes. They were all decoys.

  In the front seat, one of the muscular guys who escorted Aphrodisia held a remote in his hand with a single button.

  He pushed the button.

  The limo exploded, sending Paragon flying up into the air. He righted himself and hovered over the street as he looked down at the flaming wreckage of the limo. He wanted to check for survivors, but the mangled hunk of steel crackling below meant there was a slim chance of that.

  He looked up and down the street, and saw no other escaping cars or signs of Aphrodisia. She had gotten away again.

  MISSION FAILED

  With the destruction of the limo, everyone seemed to snap out of their trances. Once again, screams and yells replaced moaning as the women and men (but mostly women) came out of Aphrodisia's spell and discovered they were naked and fucking a stranger. The crowd scattered in all directions with people clutching clothes to themselves or just running off naked.

  Of all of them, Mayor Kirby seemed to be most panicked. His security guards rushed to form a circle around him while he scrambled to pull on his suit, yelling for help. The woman he had been banging shrieked while hobbling off the stage with her hands over her breasts and crotch.

  Paragon felt his heart sink as he realized he had failed again. Aphrodisia had escaped, and probably gotten whatever she came for. She had fooled him twice with her decoys, and turned him completely helpless again. It seemed like the only reason she hadn't ordered him to kill himself or anyone else is because she found him amusing, and she liked toying with him like a cat playing with a mouse.
