I got my first Patreon patron! I was almost resigned to never getting any patrons, so it warms my heart that someone thinks I'm worth supporting financially.

Content Warning: Brainwashing, sex through brainwashing, explicit intercourse

Estella groaned as she opened her eyes. Why did she feel so awake? She swore she had fallen asleep only minutes prior.

The fact that she was upright, bound to a huge stone, and surrounded by outback desert comprised of red sands, and a swirling, mystical night sky somewhat clued her in to what was going on, and her panic quickly subsided. “Guess I’m dreaming, then… Guess that’s a relief.”

“I wouldn’t get too comfortable if I were you, Estella,” remarked a female voice as a figure formed from rising sand, morphing into Gulara. Estella blushed as she realised the witch was completely nude. “I suppose this was something of a last resort, but getting to you in the physical world before the night of the ritual would be near impossible at this rate. So I’ll have to settle for this.”

Estella grit her teeth as she struggled against her bonds. Her hands were practically sunken into the rock itself, and they refused to budge. “How did who I-“

Gulara chuckled, stroking Estella’s cheek with her hand, “I had help from two of my pets.”

Two more figures rose from the sands - Karla and June. Both were also unclothed, their eyes glazed over, and they were unmoving, as if standing to attention. Their abdomens were notably expanded.

Estella tried not to stare. “But neither of them are-”

“-not in the waking world, but their dream selves are under my thrall. And yours shall be too,” Gulara said with an arrogant smirk. “If you knew anything about manipulating the dreamscape, you’d have freed yourself by now. Not that it would help you much - I’ve been doing it since you were in diapers.”

Estella grit her teeth, staring at her defiantly. She wasn’t going to let her get away with this. But before she could open her mouth to speak, Gulara chuckled, “and I know what you’re thinking. You could just warn your friends and allies about this. Well, here’s the thing… Why hasn’t Karla told you about this? Same reason you won’t when you wake up - you won’t remember a thing.”

Estella’s eyes widened, the implications easily coming to mind immediately, but those thoughts quickly fled her mind when Gulara began to rub her temples with her fingers, and her eyes turned into a swirl of colours that trapped Estella’s gaze. She could feel the witch flooding her mind with invasive thoughts, trying to warp her mind.

Of course, Estella was not weak-willed by any stretch, she resisted as hard as she could. But the witch had the advantage of time. Even assuming time passed in the dreamscape at the same rate as the waking world? That meant Estella had to hold out for several hours.

Estella’s exhausted, strained mind held out for… How many hours? She’d be impressed with the witch’s patience if she even had the mental strength to think about such things - she didn’t even know how long it had been. All she could do was stubbornly hold back the tide for as long as she possibly could.

Unfortunately, she had her limits, and at that point, she had reached them. The dam broke, and Estella’s mind was completely flooded.

“You held out for over six hours. Quite impressive, most people don’t even last two or even a single hour,” said Gulara, with some restrained frustration in her voice, “but now it’s time for you to embrace your true calling.”

Estella smiled dumbly as her mind became putty in her mistress’ hands, her being filled with happiness and bliss. The stone that kept her prisoner melted away into sand, and she stood up, staring at her mistress with love and admiration. “I’m yours, Mistress.”

Gulara grinned with obvious triumph, her eyes returning to normal as she pulled in Estella for a passionate kiss, as the pyjamas Estella had still been wearing melted away.

Estella was completely and utterly immersed in the kiss as Gulara fondled her breasts, tangling tongues with her mistress. Everything else was now a distant second to pleasing her by any means necessary.

“Fully claiming you is going to be troublesome in the waking world, but once I’ve fertilised your dream self, I’ll have the advantage when that night comes,” Gulara remarked, as she broke the kiss, continuing to molest Estella’s breasts, and slapping her ass. “You are a wonderful prize, indeed. If I had the time and energy to claim your sisters as well, I’d do so, but I’ll have to settle for you for now.”

Estella felt weak in the knees at the thought of her mistress claiming her sisters and making them as utterly blissful as she felt right now. But those thoughts were cleared away by the feeling of something hard pushing through the gap between her thighs. She looked down, and immediately swooned when she saw her mistress’ magnificent magical member still growing on her crotch. “You’re gonna breed me with that thing, Mistress~?”

“Indeed. But first, show your loyalty to me, my pet. Make use of those huge tits of yours and your mouth.”

Estella did not even think twice about it as she got on her knees, putting Gulara’s cock between her breasts. That monster would put any man she had slept with to shame, being over half a meter long and several centimetres thick. She gleefully began massaging it between her breasts, taking the tip into her mouth and worshipping it with her tongue - the taste was utterly exquisite.

Gulara groaned, petting Estella’s head approvingly. “Good girl. I see you’ve got a lot of experience with this.”

That, Estella couldn’t really deny, not that she would’ve ever wanted to. She began sucking on her mistress’ magnificent cock properly, bobbing her head up and down as she took in as much of it as she could before her breasts got in the way, continuing to massage with said breasts expertly.

The results spoke for themselves. It didn’t take long for her mistress to reach her limit, flooding Estella’s mouth and throat with semen.

Estella took the cock out of her mouth, holding in the cum and savouring the taste before swallowing. She panted, mouth open, to prove she hadn’t let a singe drop escape.

“Good girl, very good. I’m going to enjoy our nights together. Lie down, and spread your legs,” Gulara said with an eager glint in her eye, her cock still rock-hard.

Estella laid back on the sandy dune, which felt strangely comfortable and almost mattress-like (then again, it was a dream, it could feel like anything her mistress wanted), doing as commanded and spreading her legs. Her entrance was utterly soaked. “Fill me, Mistress~!”

Gulara got on top of her, pushing that monster into her pussy, making Estella squeal in delight as she felt it rub against her insides. The witch gripped Estella’s hips as she began thrusting in and out, pounding at her cunt with little in the way of restraint. Not that Estella cared right now. This was unimaginable bliss.

Estella’s eyes crossed as her mistress slammed her pussy over and over again, losing herself in the pleasure, until her mistress finally hit her limit, causing Estella to reach hers as well, likely some kind of dream effect - as Estella climaxed, shaking her body, she felt the witch fill her to the brim with her cum. She could feel something taking root in her womb.

She laid back on the sands, panting, “that was amazing, Mistress…”

“There’s a lot more where that came from, my pet,” Gulara chuckled, as they kissed once more.

The rest of the dream was entirely comprised of lovemaking. And Estella enjoyed every moment of it.

Unfortunately, the problem with being a vigilante was that regular responsibilities didn’t wait after a hectic night of battling. So Estella and her sisters still needed to attend university. But that didn’t compare to what happened afterwards.

The three sisters were sitting across from Karla, a holographic dome surrounding them with a galactic effect, making it virtually impossible to determine their location.

Estella was still a bit unsure about whether it was a good idea to do an informal interview, but at this point Karla knew who she was, and had promised that she wouldn’t reveal their true identities. Anja and Natalia had reluctantly agreed to go along with it. Besides, the cat was likely not going to stay in the bag for long - if Karla could figure it out, the government likely had suspicions as well, at least.

The trio were in their heroine outfits, mostly so their voices would be disguised when recorded and their identities visually obscured.

“Thank you so much for agreeing to do this. I know your true identities are important to you, so again, I won’t disclose anything in that regard to the public or the government against your wishes,” Karla said. She had a recording device and a laptop for taking notes. “Donavan, you ready?”

“Camera’s rolling,” Donavan said with a thumbs up, operating a video camera, focused on the sisters.

“Excellent. Now, then, first things first - what are your heroine aliases? Every superhero needs one.”

Estella sighed, “we never really put any thought into ours, honestly, because we weren’t planning to go public with our heroics. I go by ‘Arcane’, but I think it’s a bit too basic.”

“Mine’s Prometheus, because that’s the name of my symbiote. It works and I can’t be arsed to think of anything better,” Anja said.

“Blueshift,” Natalia said. “I think it works? My abilities and technology are from aliens who came to Earth, and also works with my suit colours. It’s a physics term related to how far an object is from Earth.”

“We might have to workshop the first two, but I won’t deny they suffice,” Karla nodded with some satisfaction. “So how did you become superheroines?”

The first part of the interview was mostly just recapping things, such as how the trio received their abilities and the university campus attack, amongst other things. Fairly straightforward stuff, really.

Karla finished jotting down notes, before she continued to her next subject of inquiry. “You’ve been fighting to protect this town without any expectation of fame or even recognition for your heroic deeds, nevermind putting your very lives on the line. What motivates you to do what you do?”

“It’s our town and our home,” Anja said, “we gotta do what we can to keep it safe. Sure, this might sound a bit selfish, but we do live here.”

Estella nodded in agreement. Sure, Anja could’ve been more delicate with her words, but a lot of people would probably understand. “We’ve got a responsibility to fight to keep our town safe from evildoers. I dunno if we’ll be stopping bank robberies or the like anytime soon, but right now, we’re doing what we can to stop the things threatening our town from taking over and hurting innocent people.”

Karla simply nodded, these answers apparently satisfactory enough for her to move on. “Let’s talk about these threats you speak of…”

“Thank you so much. I think this’ll do nicely, provided the government lets me publish any of it, but it’s been rather enlightening for me personally as well,” Karla said as she shook hands with the sisters, once the interview was over.

Estella chuckled. Karla’s heart was in the right place, at least, even if she could be a bit aggressive with trying to get to the heart of a story. “You’re welcome. Just… Stay safe out there, okay? Let us know if something happens.”

“With those devices your alien friends provided? I think that shouldn’t be much trouble,” Donavan said, flipping one of said devices in his hand as they stepped off the ship. “We’ll see ourselves out.”

“An actual alien spacecraft! Words can’t express how exciting it is! I really want to see more, and perhaps interview your alien friends as well, but I think we’ve stuck around enough for today. Later, and thanks again!” Karla smiled.

After seeing them off the property, the three went back into the ship. It was much busier than usual, but mostly due to the four new guests. Phi’Scia was talking to the monster-kin about themselves and the world they came from, and Arika had been talking to Clarette and Aurelius. Estella was surprised she didn’t just disappear after last night, but apparently the prospect of an actual bed to sleep in rather than making do with whatever she could find was too tempting for her. Also, her full name was Arika Alkawari. As everyone suspected, she had come down from the Blue Mountains, chasing after the evil coven, though unfortunately she hadn’t been able to bring backup with her.

“Heeeeeeyyyyy! Looks like you’re done with the interview!” Arika waved, walking over to Estella - Anja and Natalia had gone to talk with Phi and the monster-folk. “Karla’s pretty nice. I wish I could’ve gotten to her before Gulara raped her, but…”

“Hey, ain’t your fault, it was that bitch’s fault for doing it in the first place,” Estella said. “So… What’s up?”

Arika stared her in the eyes, and put her fingers against Estella’s temples. Estella was confused, but she trusted her enough to do it. “Well, shit. She already got to you.”

Estella blinked. “I don’t follow.”

“Estella, did you have a wet dream last night?” Clarette asked, as she and Aurelius walked up.

As a matter of fact… “Yeah, I did, why? I guess I must’ve had a pretty horny dream last night, but I can’t remember any of it. Hell, I must’ve forgotten I dreamed at all.”

Arika took her fingers away from Estella’s head, “that’s because Gulara messed with your head. Your dream self is under her thrall.”

Estella’s eyes nearly bulged at the notion, as she tried to process it. “Excuse me?! I thought the ‘Dreamtime’ wasn’t named that literally!”

Arika sighed, hands on her hips. “You’re right, the ‘Dreaming’, as you call it in English, encompasses everything to do with one’s life - the past, the present, the future, the physical and the spiritual. And that includes literal dreams. Of course, dreams aren’t that important for most people, but evil witches will use whatever they can. And since the word ‘Dreamtime’ is so associated with Aboriginal spirituality now, that’s also enabled them to invade dreams.”

Aurelius nodded. “Superstition and belief are very important to the workings of magic, and can affect how things work in the supernatural world. The witch mentioned the full moon when talking to Karla - the power of the full moon is simply because it has become so ingrained in our collective consciousness.”

“Still… Joy, I’m the fucking liability that Nat isn’t,” Estella groaned. “Fantastic.”

“Language, young lady,” Clarette said sternly, “but as Arika explained to us, this only affects the part of you that is your ‘dream self’, it will have absolutely no effect on your waking self… At least until the coven’s upcoming ritual.”

Estella raised an eyebrow. “Ritual?”

“The full moon thing,” Arika said. “It’s a thing the coven does to expand its ranks.”

Estella was wondering what that meant, but then she connected the dots with what Karla was told the night before. “Oh, geez, you mean Karla’s gonna give birth on that night?!”

“Yeah, but it’s also a spiritual rebirth of sorts - if Gulara did what we think she did to you and Karla, then you’ll both be converted into her apprentices and become witches,” Arika said.

Estella’s eye twitched. “Oh, like hell I’ll let her do that. But why tell me and not Karla?”

“Because we can make sure your dream self doesn’t inform Gulara that we know what she’s up to - a simple dream blocker should do the trick, until we can access your dreams and fix you right up,” Aurelius said. “We don’t have that luxury for Karla. We’ll figure something out, but our priority right now is making sure you aren’t brainwashed on the night of the full moon… Which is in about a week, so not a lot of time.”

Estella wasn’t exactly thrilled about all of this, but she nodded. “Right. Do what you gotta do, I suppose.”

Arika grinned. “And I’ll be sticking around to help out with all the magic stuff! Yeah, turns out I might’ve bitten off a bit more than I can chew, so having two Arcane Knights around to help deal with the coven is a huge relief.”

Estella smiled, “welcome to the team, then. Just… Don’t stink up the house with whatever drugs you use to get high with, okay?”

A couple of hours later, Estella went into Aurelius’ portable ‘lab’ to go looking for Jay, who was currently having a session learning magic with Aurelius.

As she came in to the main hub, Jay turned around to see her, and smiled, rushing to hug her. “I heard what Gulara did to you. You okay, Es?”

“I mean, I don’t remember any of it, so I guess so?” Estella chuckled, hugging him back, “thanks for asking.”

“That is a good point for a break, anyway,” Aurelius remarked. “You’ve been doing quite well in your studies, Jay. Having to juggle law and magic studies is no mean feat.”

“I actually defeated a witch last night, so I’m feeling pretty good about myself last night,” Jay said with a nervous grin. “I just hope I can keep it up.”

“Well, it’s a small victory but it’s still your first,” Estella grinned, putting a hand on his leg, “we could celebrate, if you want~”

Jay smirked back. He knew exactly what she was thinking. “I’d be down for that. We haven’t had some fun together in a bit.”

“If I recall, you two aren’t actually dating, so would it be a step too far for me to suggest I could join in?” Aurelius remarked, as he walked over.

That got Estella excited. She hadn’t had a proper threesome in a while, and she had to admit, Aurelius was pretty damn handsome. Besides, it was a way to pay him back for the magic lessons. “Sure! How about you, Jay?”

“Of course you’d be okay with it,” Jay chuckled, shaking his head, “alright, that’s fine. Guess I’m sharing you with another guy tonight.”

“I never said it’d just be you and I enjoying her company, Jay,” Aurelius chuckled, putting a hand on Jay’s shoulder, “I’m more than open to engaging in proper intimacy with you personally… If you’re fine with doing so.”

Estella couldn’t help but laugh as she saw Jay’s face redden. But his response genuinely surprised her. “I mean… I am kinda curious about doing something like that, so… If it’s with you, I’m okay with trying it…”

“Wow, I didn’t think you were actually bisexual, Jay,” said Estella.

“Well, I might be? I just want to see if doing it with another guy actually does anything for me.”

Estella actually thought up to this point that Jay was straight as an arrow, but she couldn’t help but find his willingness to experiment with his own sexuality to be kinda admirable. A lot of dudes would be a lot more reluctant.

“Let’s do it in my personal bedroom,” Aurelius remarked, as he lead them around a corner from the office. Estella smiled, feeling Jay’s arm around her waist. This was gonna be fun.

Aurelius’ bedroom was surprisingly modest, king-sized bed aside, mostly just decorated with shelves of books, a couple of closets and a wall adorned with awards for his achievements.

Estella whistled, looking it all over. “I gotta say, how do you keep all of your stuff from getting destroyed if something happens to the cube?”

“The cube has several protections on it, and if they’re breached, the cube will automatically teleport to a specific location already per-programmed,” Aurelius said, taking off his top. His figure was well-toned, if slender, and it did not fail to attract Estella’s gaze. “If the cube is destroyed, all of its contents are expelled in an orderly fashion, much like Natalia’s compression capsules.”

“Makes sense,” said Jay as he took his shirt off. Estella was wasting little time enjoying the eye-candy, resisting the urge to lick her lips. Both of them were rather attractive men - not all that traditionally ‘manly’, but Estella was not very picky about her sex partners by any stretch of the imagination.

She herself began to take off her clothes, starting with her jacket. She noticed both men staring, and smirked as she gave them a strip-show, taking off her shirt and slowly undoing her bra, allowing her breasts to bounce free. She slowly began to pull down her lower body garments and her stockings, showing off her wet vagina - she had already taken off her shoes back in the house.

“I’ll never get tired of seeing that gorgeous body of yours, Es,” said Jay as he took off his pants and underwear, before going over to her with a kiss and a two-handed grope of both her breasts. He was already rock-hard.

Aurelius gave Estella a smirk, revealing his own penis - both men were decently hung. Estella could hear him speak in her mind, likely a sending spell, “I have an idea to start getting Jay more acclimated…”

An image flashed in Estella’s mind, and she grinned, pushing Jay onto the bed, on his back. Jay blinked, “hey, what are you-”

He was interrupted by Estella sitting on his face, positioning her pussy at his mouth. He quickly got the message, licking at her crotch and causing her to moan lightly. Estella had full view of Aurelius beginning to suck Jay’s cock. It was probably the first time she had a threesome where one of the dudes was getting sucked off by the other dude, but there was a first time for everything, she supposed.

Jay was fairly experienced at eating her out, and he wasted little time aiming his tongue at her more sensitive spots. She let out lustful moans, watching Aurelius really get into sucking her ex-boyfriend’s dick. The fact that Jay was making surprisingly cute moans in response was surprisingly arousing.

Estella could feel Jay’s body shudder as he came into Aurelius’ mouth. Aurelius chuckled as he swallowed and then licked up the leaking semen, before revitalising his balls with a quick spell and jerking him off a bit to get him back to full mast. Estella wasn’t far behind, though, her ex-boyfriend’s experienced tongue-lashing driving her to spill her juices on his mouth.

Estella fell onto her back, panting as she spread her legs, casting a protective barrier inside her vagina that would act as contraception, “which one of you wants my cunt first?”

Jay got up, looking at Aurelius, now red as a tomato. “You can go first if you want, I’ve done it plenty of times with her…”

“Oh, no, I insist on you doing it first,” Aurelius said, standing up, “I have a different orifice in mind, and I think it’d be more comfortable for your first time with a man if you were having intercourse with Estella at the same time.”

Jay took a deep breath, and proceeded to get on top of Estella, his dick aimed at her crotch. “Just… Be gentle, okay?”

Aurelius got on the bed, taking a hold of Jay’s hips. “Of course.”

Estella moaned as Jay pushed his dick into her pussy. Shortly after, while she couldn’t see it, it was easy to tell when Aurelius pushed his member into Jay’s ass. The fact that he groaned louder from that was an interesting surprise to her. She wasn’t sure whether to be surprised that he seemed to enjoy it, or annoyed that he was possibly enjoying it more than putting his dick in her.

But that thought was quickly pushed aside as Jay began to thrust in and out of her with increasing force and pace, one hand keeping a steady grip on her hip and the other with a hearty grope of her breast. He knew she would prefer him to get to the good point quickly rather than be gentle with it. She could feel the force of Aurelius slamming him from behind as well. He groaned, “f-fuck… This is… Definitely new…”

“I don’t think you dislike it, though,” Estella moaned, leaning forward to kiss him.

“Guess I’m bi, then,” said Jay with another groan as he kissed back.

Getting plowed by her ex-boyfriend while he got rammed in the ass by another dude was rather hot, surprisingly. Or not so surprisingly. Either way, the chaotic threesome was doing a lot for her as she felt Jay’s dick rubbing against her sensitive areas, despite Aurelius’ own thrusting threatening to disrupt the rhythm.

Aurelius blew his load first, which caused a chain reaction of orgasms that went to Jay firing off his shot into Estella next. Several thrusts later, Estella moaned loudly as she climaxed in turn.

As she panted, she noticed Aurelius pull out, cum dripping from Jay’s rear. Jay collapsed onto the bed right beside her, panting.

“I think it might be time to stop here, if the two of you are spent,” Aurelius said.

“N-No, I’m fine… I want to swap places,” Jay said, as he sat up. “You don’t get to fuck my ass and not have yours untouched.”

Aurelius chuckled, and got on top of Estella, prepared to push into her. “Well, when you’re ready, Jay.”

Jay got behind him, used magic to revitalise his dick, and after getting his shaft up to full mast, pushed into Aurelius’ ass with a groan, which was followed by Aurelius pushing into Estella in turn.

Estella moaned happily. Having these two as regular sex partners was gonna be a lot of fun.

The Emperor found himself involved in an interesting stand-off.

He had known about the coven that had infiltrated the town, of course. They had interfered with his soldiers trying to capture people in the dead of night previously. But now he had to resolve a nasty confrontation between the coven and his soldiers downtown. The problem with having soldiers incapable of communication was that delegating responsibilities that didn’t involve violence was basically impossible. He decided that perhaps he should fix that at some point.

The two sides were facing off in the middle of the street, their intended captives trapped between them, and out cold - a few random uni students caught out that night downtown.

“So you’re the ‘Tenebris Imperatoris’. How interesting. I thought you were just some upstart, but there’s more to you than I expected,” said the leader of the witches - a female wearing only a cloak. In fact, she and her coven were entirely nude aside from said cloaks.

These witches would make Bayonetta look like a prude, the Emperor thought to himself. “And you’re the leader of the coven that has been rudely getting in the way of my soldiers. I staked a claim on the people of this town first, woman.”

“I don’t recognise the authority of one whose power is based on someone else’s power, especially when that power is itself stolen,” the witch snapped back.

“Stolen? At this point I’m just as native as you are,” scoffed the dark spirit as it emerged from his host. “I’m a practical being, and I don’t consider any kind of magic to belong to anyone. I simply learn and use what I think is useful.”

“Tch. You’re just a common thief in my eyes,” the witch said, before returning eye contact with the Emperor, “and what of you? What do you stand to gain from all of this?”

“A just world without conflict and violence, where no-one has to suffer,” the Emperor said simply.

There was a brief pause. And the witch laughed. “What utter tripe! Trying to create such a world with your methods?”

“Call them hypocritical if you like. I don’t care. I only care about the end result. Your coven will be part of my new world as well, whether you like it or not.”

“Seems we may come into conflict at some point, I see. If that’s how it is, then we’ll just have to fight over the spoils now and get it over with,” the witch said. “Don’t underestimate me, boy.”

“Likewise, you old hag,” said the Emperor as he formed a sword. He hated that this had to come to blows, but-

The two groups were immediately alerted to incoming vehicles, heralded by police sirens. The witch snarled, looking towards the noise, then back to the Emperor, “seems we’ll have to resolve this dispute later.”

The Emperor decided this was not a battle worth fighting. He had plenty more opportunities to claim new sources of soldiers. “Indeed. Farewell.”

Both groups fled the scene, being shot at by police and government mages…
