"Amateur," Jewel whispered to Pan. "This kid thinks that Eros' responsibilities are only concerned with fornication. Clearly, the boy has not been tutored well." The talking ferret, Sebastian, looked embarrassed.
"Next!" Felix announced. A rattlesnake slithered forward, and Pan almost gave out a gasp. "Hellosss. I am Fluffy. Plsss welcome my very talented candidate… Hisssss…” Pan raised his eyes to the human behind the snake. She was a petite girl who looked almost like a doll. Not taller than five foot two, she was in ponytails and wore a pink suit. Pan thought he had seen her somewhere before. "Hiiiii!" the girl chirped. "I am Jacqueline. You can call me Jackie! I come from Esther city. I want to become Eros's successor, smite everyone with love and kisses, and fill all hearts with stars and flowers." She made a victory sign for everyone. The audience applauded. Jackie was charming indeed. She could be a singing idol, perhaps. Pan found her very adorable. He could hold her and never let her go. 'I mean, in a brotherly manner,' the boy corrected his thoughts. 'Oh wait! She is Jackie Jade, the singing idol from Esther city!' "Next!" A tall, muscular guy walked forward and identified himself as Blazelander, or as he preferred to be called, Blaze. He was a hyper-masculine young man with light stubble on his face. His huge biceps strained his green swimsuit to its limit. A six-pack of abs and powerful lats showed through his clothes. Blaze's thighs were like stone pillars. His liaison was a bull terrier who identified himself as Brine. "My dream is that only fit and healthy people can have sex," Blaze announced. "Uglies, fatsos, and weaklings banging each other are despicable to look at." His gaze fell on Pan. "Weaklings like him will be prohibited from sex. What is he doing here, anyway? This contest is for becoming the God of Desire, not Slumdog Millionaire." Everyone but Pan laughed at the joke. Most likely, he was the only poor kid among the candidates. It was bullying for him all over again. 'I can never win until I stand for myself,' the boy determined. "I feel we should prohibit meatheads from trying to multiply themselves," he quipped at the beefy guy. "What did you say to me, squirt?!" Blaze fired back. "Candidates are requested not to talk or refer to each other unless it is a task in the contest," Felix announced. "Alright," Blaze said, flexing his muscles and stepping back. But his eyes never left Pan. Next came a bespectacled boy in a white swimsuit. His liaison was a parrot named Coco. "Please welcome Zeitgeist or Zete," the bird squawked. Zete pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and nodded at everyone else. He was of medium height and had a polished look about him. The boy had a smart device in his hand. "The world population is currently around 8 billion," he began. "My calculations are that at least 25 percent of human adults are desperate virgins and never even come close to getting laid. My efforts as the successor of Eros would be to bring them into the fold. Then I will spread the formula to the rest of the universe." There was no applause except from Pan. Someone coughed. "Nerd," Blaze chipped in. "Bully," Pan said under his breath. It was time for the last candidate. A possum skittered forward. It had a ribbon around its neck. "Hello, dearies. I am Cosmo. My candidate is Iverette. You can call her Ivy," she said. The girl stepped forward. Her swimsuit was so tight and translucent that Pan could clearly make out her nipples. She had a deep cameltoe. The guys watched her with gaping mouths. 'She's sexy and slutty,' Pan thought in wonder. 'Thanks, father. Good job!' "I love having sex," Ivy began. "And I also want the universe to be crazy about it." She arched her body and made poses, and twirled seductively. Pan almost got a nosebleed. "If any of you are interested, let me know," Ivy added. "We can arrange an orgy right here, right now." "Ahem," Felix interrupted the girl. "There will be no physical contact between candidates unless specified in the tasks. Do anything untoward, and we shall exercise our authority as liaisons to chuck you out of Erode." The candidates nodded, and the talking animals made sounds of comprehension. "Aren't we brothers and sisters, anyway?" Pan blurted out. "Anything physical between us would amount to incest, right?" Everyone else went silent. Felix glared at Pan for a moment. "Technically, you are step-brothers and step-sisters," he explained. "For example, Pan, your mother is Goddess Karina. Zete, your mother is Goddess Athena. All seven of you have been conceived from seven different divine wombs. But you are offspring from the same father, King Eros the Conqueror." Pete gulped and eyed the girls. His gaze flew from the bombshell to Penny to the doll Jackie to the slut Ivy. If they were his step-sisters, then… His mind was suddenly filled with the most perverted thoughts possible. The coming of another nosebleed was inevitable. Was it the result of coming of age that Jewel had warned him about? "Now that introductions are complete, it's time to begin the first contest," Felix declared. "Get ready, candidates!"Felix the hedgehog let out a resounding grunt, and a portal opened behind him. A bunch of people walked out of it. They were grown-ups, seven couples, to be exact. Meanwhile, the other liaisons used magic to bring seven tables and chairs to the garden. Each of the seven couples was asked to occupy a table. They seemed to be under some spell, so they followed the general commands of the liaisons. The adults all wore swimsuits as well. 'What's with the swimsuits?' Pan wondered. 'Is everyone expecting to go to the beach? Why am I the only one left out?' He was about to ask Jewel when the hedgehog spoke up. "As Managing Liaison, I will take this opportunity to explain the rules of the first test," Felix began. "The purpose of the God of Love is not only to create new matches but also to mend broken matches. It will be easy for the successor of Eros to do so once they have received the divine powers. But can they fix painful love through human abilities? Let's find out." "Each co
Splat! Another bubble blew up. It was the one above Penelope's table. The bombshell had somehow convinced her couple that their feelings for each other still existed. She had made good arguments about their history and present. Besides, she was so beautiful that it was difficult to disagree with her. Splat! Jackie's bubble burst. Her singing diva charm had done its wonders. Pan turned to his couple with a grimace. "Please listen to me, guys. You need to like each other again." "Like him?" the woman spat. "I'd rather eat my shoe!" "Like her?" the man fired back. "I'd rather fuck a goat!" Splat! Another bubble went off. It was Blaze's couple. Pan wondered if he threatened them into liking each other. But it also set off an inferiority complex within him. What if he was the black sheep, and Jewel made a mistake? The garden was filled with Felix's magical white haze. That meant most couples had already ignited their passions. There was no restriction on sexual activity as lo
Origin of the Universe The Liaisons Council sat in a closed circle. Nobody spoke a word for several minutes. They had provided the candidates with refreshments for the time being while the liaisons excused themselves to evaluate performances. Felix, the hedgehog, was in deep thought, tapping his tiny claws on the sandy ground. "I had no idea he had the flame," Jewel croaked. "I swear in the name of the gods!" Felix glared at the frog and said sternly," You have landed us in a lot of trouble, my friend. Such an incident had not happened over centuries!" Jewel sighed and hung his head. "Umm… What is the flame?" Coco the parrot asked. She was a fresher liaison and unfamiliar with ancient history and godlore. Felix wrung his hands and spoke up. "Fine. I will explain everything for the benefit of everyone who does not know. I'm getting old, so I'll depend on Jewel and Fluffy to fill in the gaps in information if I leave anything out. They are the only other seniors who have be
"Artemis was defeated by the assembly of gods in a war that went on for millennia. Our Lord, King Eros, was one of the Generals in the conflict. After facing a crushing defeat, Artemis reverted to his flame form. However, he was no longer a source of light but a mouth of darkness. He became the first greater flame of darkness. It disappeared and was lost in space." "That brings us to this boy- Pan." "What about him?" Cosmo asked. Felix sighed. "It seems the flame was hidden on Earth, waiting for its power to recover. When Pan was sent to planet Earth by King Eros to be nurtured and raised, the flame found him compatible and took deep roots within him. The troubling fact is that the boy doesn't realize his power." Coco seemed puzzled. "Umm… okay, there is a great power within him, right? Doesn't that make him the right candidate for Eros' successor?" she posed innocently. "Are you crazy?" Felix chided her. "If he becomes Eros' successor, he will transcend his father in power
"Hey, wake up, sleepy head," a velvety voice said. A warm hand touched Pan's cheek. He stirred with his eyes closed and held the hand against his face. "It's so warm… Mom…" he murmured and smiled. "Wake up, Pan..." the voice repeated. "I'm not your mom." The boy opened his eyes. A beautiful girl's face loomed over him. Ash-blonde hair cascaded down like dunes in the sand. Her blue eyes were so serene that they made Pan drowsy again. The boy lowered his eyes and saw a tight bust pressed against spandex. "Penelope?" he mumbled. "Yes, it's me. Penny. You were talking in your sleep. What happened to you? Why did you pass out?" "I… uh… I don't know. I don't remember. Did you guys see anything?" She shook her head gracefully. "Felix had magically censored everything happening at other tables. We were told you scored high on the test but passed out, probably due to exhaustion. But what actually happened at your couples table, nobody knows." Penny brought forth a tissue and wiped
Felix eyed Pan with slanted eyes before returning to the waterfall. Pan thanked Penelope and walked towards his mentor, Jewel. The talking frog hopped to a grassy area and stopped. Neither of them said anything for an elongated spell. "Jewel, what's wrong? Why are you silent?" "Eh?" the frog said. "It's just been a long day for me, kid…." "Hmm. Do you know what happened to me at the couples' table? How did I faint?" "How do I know?" Jewel said with a jittery voice. "The magical censoring was for everyone." "Oh, I figured so…" Pan looked like he wasn't satisfied with Jewel's answer. Was the creature hiding something? The talking frog turned to him. "Can I ask you something, boy?" "Yeah?" "Have you ever been angry?" "Ummm. Well, yeah... who hasn't?" "Did anything… err…strange ever happen to you while you were angry?" Pan shrugged. "Not that I know of. Why?" "Nothing," he replied, averting the boy's gaze. "Just a random interview question. We were asked to know
“Alright,” Felix the hedgehog began. All the candidates seem to have arrived through the portals. I’ll explain how this rung works shortly.” The liaisons had transported the boys and girls into what appeared to be inside a cave. They stood in a narrow, winding tunnel with dingy stone walls surrounding them. It was dark, but Felix had conjured an orb of light with magic. “Do not be alarmed,” the hedgehog insisted. “We are in the heart of Filo mountain and closer to the summit than earlier. If any candidate feels uncomfortable or has trouble breathing, let me know. We will portal you right back. However, remember that would be considered a forfeit from the contest.” The candidates nodded. The contests were getting weirder. “What sort of test will you conduct here?” Blaze asked. He was so tall that his head almost touched the tunnel’s roof. “In the last rung, we tested whether you could re-ignite love through your words. In this one, we’ll test if you can resist love.” The ca
The boys walked silently down the tunnel allotted to them. Initially, they could hear the girls' voices through the separating wall. However, as the passages diverged, their sounds faded and eventually disappeared. "We will appear at your side once the test is over," Felix the hedgehog had reassured them. "Good luck!" he had added before disappearing with his colleagues. And thus, the boys were by themselves, walking down the spooky tunnel. The liaisons had left each of them with a light orb that levitated above their heads like miner lamps. "Should we take off our clothes already?" Cory asked. "I don't want to be burned alive by the freaks. That's not the way I want to go." "Yes, let's do that right away!" Blaze announced with enthusiasm. The other boys stripped down to nothing. Pan hesitated and wished he could do it in the darkness. However, a gnarled light orb floated above him, casting him into the spotlight. Pan felt a wave of intimidation overwhelm him as he stared
Pan, Jackie, and Cory went through the next door to find themselves in a dark tunnel. The fog had thinned, and the temperature was warmer. The group walked silently, their bare feet pattering on the wet floor. About a hundred feet away, light shone at the end of the tunnel. Pan and Cory tried hard not to turn their heads and check out Jackie. The girl had insisted that she walk behind them. Even in pitch-black darkness, you couldn't trust boys. The wrong thing might bump into the right place. They were midway when a tiny creature hopped in front of them. Jackie gave out a yelp and turned to run. Was it one of the freak monsters? Pan and Cory prepared to kick it into a pulp. "It's okay, children," the creature said. "Calm down. It's me." An orb of light emanated from its paw and lit up the cave. Suddenly aware of their nudity, the teenagers covered up their private parts with their hands. "Felix!" Pan exclaimed. "What the fuck is going on? Why are you liaisons trying to kill us
Blaze scratched his head. "I don't understand this well. Just tell me how I can help." "Just stay close to me, and don't try to kill the freaks. I observed that the victim condition of abductees in each room has been getting more severe. A few tiny monsters latched onto Ivy. A giant freak attacked you. A sentient eye creature has possessed Cory and Jackie. I fear the next room would be worse, with a more evolved being." The hulk nodded. "You're right. I realize now I wouldn't have lasted more than half an hour. So, what do you suggest?" Pan pointed to the exit ahead. "Why don't you go to the next room? I will handle this eye monster. Since we don't have time, it is better to split up." Blaze shrugged. "I hate to leave you alone. But it's your call." The hulk went in a circle to avoid running into his possessed siblings and entered the next chamber. Pan walked closer to Cory and Jackie until they noticed his presence. "Ah, Pan!" Jackie said in an eerie dual-toned voice. "See
"Run…" Blaze said weakly. He leaned back on the chamber wall with his eyes closed. The hulk had accepted his punishment. The freaks would eventually drain him of all fluids, and he'll die a dry husk. Pan headed towards the nearest exit. But the colossal freak wouldn't let him go. Two of its tentacles darted toward the boy and wound around his leg. "Nooo…!" Pan fell on the hard rock floor and had the air knocked out of him. He gasped, trying to get to his feet, but the tentacles held him tight, gradually dragging him toward the monster. "Is this the end? I never imagined I'd be killed this way,' he thought. Just then, he saw smoke emanating from his legs. He sat up to take a closer look. His legs weren't letting off smoke. However, the tentacles wrapped around were fuming at the very areas in direct contact with his legs. 'What's happening?' The jelly around his ankles caught fire, burning to a crisp. The monster whined in pain as the tips of its tentacles were roasted to
Pan's eyes had adjusted to the mist, and now he could see the things, the creatures, riding on Ivy. Four jellyfish-like eel monsters clung to her. Two of them latched themselves onto a breast each. Two others were attached to her behind. Pan could figure from the side that one was half inside her pussy, and the other was trying to get into her ass. The creatures had no eyes, noses, or teeth. They were blobs with oval mouths with which they hitched onto the skin. Due to their uncanny shapes, they fit nicely into orifices, and over protrusions. The freaks on Ivy were sucking on her tits, ass, and pussy. They sucked like plungers on her breasts and acted like pistons in her holes, making cringey slurping sounds. The boy remembered that the freaks liked bodily fluids. That's why they targeted body parts capable of squirting. "Pan…" Ivy murmured, raising her face. She was flushed and near exhaustion, but the boy could tell she was enjoying herself. "Join me," she urged him. "What ar
Pan stumbled down the tunnel naked, adrenaline coursing through his veins. He was never into sports but had a naturally athletic cardiovascular system. His feet pattered loudly on the damp rock, trying not to slip. The boy's worst nightmare had come to life. Jelly-like eel monsters had attacked their group and overpowered the guys. Pan remained the only unmolested and unabducted one. The events reminded him of a recurring dream in which he helplessly roamed naked as faceless people laughed and sneered at him. In the dream, his dick had turned into a massive cylinder that he had to drag around as he moved. However, the current situation was real and life-threatening. He'd give a limb and an arm to be humiliated rather than be forced upon by monsters. 'I'm sure they'll be fine,' he thought, thinking about his siblings. They were sharp and resourceful kids, capable of handling themselves. The freaks got them mainly because it was a surprise attack. Pan took a turn, hoping agains
Pan was taken aback by the question but was glas to answer. "......." the boy replied. "What was that?" "Penny…." "Oh, yeah! Nice choice! Perfect boobs and ass," Blaze said, scratching his chin. "She would be my first choice if she weren't so preachy." "Don't get me started!" Cory exclaimed, throwing up his arms. "I thought I was the only one. In raw numbers, she could be a supermodel. However, she seems too holier than thou. The girl reminds me of my parents." "Perhaps she is truly kind and not pretentious like you think," Pan suggested, but nobody else was paying attention. "What's the deal with your parents, man?" Zete asked Cory. "You were pretty vocal about them earlier. Do they beat or abuse you or something?" The freerunner spat on the ground. "I despise them. Fucking snakes! Let me become a god first. I'll make them suffer hell on earth!" "Damn! That's some deep-rooted hatred right there," Blaze said with a wave. "Anyway, I hope it is clear to everyone now that
