A Wolf's Howl, A Fairy's Wing

Since th, she had be casually preparing the stage for after Erik did his part.

For Erik, the hardest part during all this was to keep a straight face and keep his eyes trained on Nora, ev while his fairy companion was setting up some contraption she had pulled from the storage jewel on her forehead.

The contraption looked like the metal framework of a three-dimsional, life-size cube. There was a metal plate with cushions on the bottom, and four pillars rose up in the corners, with four horizontal beams connecting those pillars at the top.

Sturdy-looking metal chains and rings covered the tire structure in various places, making its purpose clear.

Elora set it up in such a casual manner, all behind the clueless Nora\'s back and without making a sound, that Erik could almost imagine Elora whistling as she prepared for the mature woman\'s demise.

Naturally, this made it all the harder for him not to laugh at poor Nora\'s cluelessness.

Wh Erik finally got Nora to agree to the bet, Elora had already be impatitly waiting to get started, having also lost her earlier collar and exchanged her nakedness for the dominatrix outfit she used during Emily\'s punishmt a few days earlier.

She stared at the blond woman\'s back with excitemt, and wh Nora finally agreed to Erik\'s proposal, she giggled and said, "I\'m glad you agreed! Now it\'s time to repay you for your earlier words, little Nora."

Before Nora could ev register that someone was talking behind her, Elora snapped her fingers, causing the contraption next to her to activate.

Four chains launched at Nora and wrapped themselves a her wrists and ankles. Utterly surprised, she muttered, "What the…?" before yelping as the chains pulled her to the g and began dragging her toward the contraption.

While her thoughts were still catching up with the new evts, Nora\'s first and instinctive reaction was to try and turn into her werewolf form, thinking she was under attack.

Yet, while most of her body changed just fine and ripped apart her black leather outfit in the process, her wrists and ankles, tightly covered by the chains, refused to expand, causing her to scream in pain.

She quickly reverted to human form before she did any permant damage to her body while the chains continued to drag her toward the cube. She looked at Erik with panic in her eyes while he gazed back at her with amusemt. "Erik! What\'s going on?! What happed to our deal?!"

Erik cocked his head to the side in fake confusion. "How do you mean? The deal was that Elora would get the chance to turn the tables on you, wasn\'t it? Looks like she managed to do so pretty quickly." He chuckled and crossed his arms, preparing to watch Elora work.

Before Nora could respond to Erik\'s words, she had be pulled to the middle of the cube, where she was now suspded in the air, completely naked. Chains stretched from her wrists and ankles to the cube\'s edges, splaying Nora in a deliberate X form.

Instead, she quickly tried to access her Runebound powers. Light blue runes began to appear all over her body, but before she could activate a skill, Elora suddly appeared before her with a wide grin and quickly drew a sigil on the woman\'s sizable chest.

Immediately, the runes dissipated, and Nora faltered. "Gah! Y- You! What did you do?!"

With a confidt and teasing smirk on her face, Elora shrugged. "I sealed your skills, of course."

Nora was about to respond wh she finally noticed Elora\'s currt differce from before. Instead of the trembling mess from earlier, the Elora she saw in front of her now was more like an inviolable goddess.

For a momt, she got lost in Elora\'s domineering emerald eyes and transcded beauty, giving her an almost instinctive desire to fall at the fairy\'s feet, a feeling only strgthed by Elora slightly spreading her third-rank aura.

Finally, she managed to shake herself free from her daze and panned her gaze betwe Erik and Elora with a complicated expression.

She looked aggrieved. "You tricked me."

Erik chuckled. "Did we? I never lied to you. You made your own assumptions, and I didn\'t dy them."

Nora scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Semantics." She spat, before turning her gaze towards Elora. "And you! Why would you let him do those things to you!"

Seeing Elora now and knowing what she had done to her, Nora immediately realized that this domineering woman was no less unique and powerful than Erik, making her confused about why she would submit to him like that.

Elora giggled. "Because I joy it, of course. I love it wh my man shows his power. Whether that be against me or someone else makes no differce." Her eyes flickered with lustful malice. "And soon, I\'ll make you joy it, too."

But Erik stuck up his hand. "Hold up. Let\'s give her one more chance to back out."

Immediately, Elora sighed, groaned, and muttered, "Damn your morals."

Erik chuckled, "It\'s the least I can do for a former companion of my mother," before turning to Nora. "You get one more chance to back out, Nora. Leave now, and we forget this ever happed. Stay, and Elora gets an hour to try and make you submit.

If she succeeds, you\'ll serve us. But if she fails, I will follow your every order for an hour, which you can use to try and \'tame me.\'

So what will it be?" He finished while smirking confidtly.

It may appear like he was giving her a choice, but Erik had se the look in Nora\'s eyes. There was no doubt in his mind about what she would choose, giv half a chance to try and dominate him.

Nora once again looked betwe Erik and Elora, feeling immse lust and a desire to dominate wh looking at Erik but some dread and fear wh looking at the grinning Elora.

Yet, ultimately, her desires won out over her caution, causing her to look defiantly at Elora.

"Bring it on." She spat.
