I was always a loner, enjoying my own company more than I did the company of others. I had no real friends, not even family, and I spent most of my time alone, wandering the streets of the city or holed up in my small apartment.
One night, as I was walking home from a late night stroll, I heard a strange noise coming from an alleyway. Curiosity got the better of me and I decided to investigate. As I stepped into the dark alleyway, I saw a figure in the shadows. It was a woman with long, dark hair and eyes that glowed with an eerie light. Her skin was pale and her lips were red as blood. She moved with a grace that seemed almost supernatural and as I approached her, I felt a chill run down my spine.
The woman smiled at me, revealing sharp, pointed teeth. “Hello there,” she said in a voice like silk. “My name is Lilith. I’m a succubus, here to offer you something special.”
I stepped back in fear but Lilith didn’t seem to notice. Instead, she reached out her hand and said, “Come with me and I will give you the power to be alone forever.”
I hesitated for a moment before finally accepting her offer. She smiled and took my hand in hers, leading me away from the alley and into a dark chamber. Inside, Lilith began to chant strange incantations as she waved her hands over a pentagram drawn on the floor. When she was done, she turned to me and said, “From now on, you will never have to be alone again. You will be able to be in any place you choose and no one will be able to find you.”
I thanked Lilith for her gift and left the chamber. For months afterwards, I used my newfound power to stay in places no one else could find me. But then one night, as I was walking in an unfamiliar part of town, I heard a strange noise coming from an alleyway. Curiosity got the better of me and I stepped into the darkness.
There in the shadows was Lilith, smiling at me with those same sharp teeth. She spoke in a voice like silk and said, “Welcome back. I trust you have enjoyed your gift?”
I nodded but said nothing. Lilith laughed and waved her hand, creating a portal before me. She said, “Come, follow me and I will show you what it truly means to be alone.”
I stepped through the portal and found myself in a strange world filled with otherworldly creatures and creatures of the night. Lilith led me deeper into this strange realm until we came to a place called the Valley of Succubi—a place where succubi lived and worked their dark magic.
As we walked through this strange valley, Lilith told me all about the power of the succubus and how it could be used for both good and evil. When we reached the end of our journey, Lilith handed me a small vial filled with an unknown liquid. She told me that this potion would give me the power to be alone forever—to be invisible to everyone but myself.
I thanked Lilith for her gift before returning to my world and taking the vial with me. Since then, I have used my newfound power to stay hidden away from the world and its inhabitants—a loner forevermore.
