Dark Lord Seduction System: Taming Wives, Daughters, Aunts, and CEOs

Chapter 744: When Queens Build Empires

Madison and Vivienne materialized at my sides roughly twenty minutes after Lila had vanished upstairs with Emma, the two of them moving with that particular feminine certainty that says we’re not asking, darling, we’re informing.

"Come on," Madison murmured, her fingers sliding into mine with a warmth that felt far too innocent for the glint in her eye. "We need to talk."

Vivienne claimed my other hand without ceremony. "Outside. Right now, honey."

I didn’t resist. Why would I? Being led by two gorgeous women who clearly had plans for me was hardly a hardship.

We drifted through the house, past the low thump of music still leaking from the entertainment hall, out the back doors, and into the estate’s grounds where the world suddenly opened up like a greedy lover spreading her thighs.

The grass was obscene in its perfection—emerald, manicured, a lawn that whispered money and power every time your shoe sank into it. Homebots kept it that way, silent little obsessives trimming blades in the dead of night, so no human ever had to bend over and show their ass to the sky.

We walked.

Just the three of us, evening air cooling, golden hour painting everything in syrupy light that makes even the most cynical bastard think about poetry and burying himself balls-deep in someone beautiful.

I didn’t ask where we were going. Madison and Vivienne radiated delicious female confidence—they’d already decided how this ends, and I’d thank them for it later, probably on my knees.

So, I walked, content to be their temporary prisoner.

My mind, traitor that it is, wandered while my body obeyed.

The estate sprawled like a rich man’s wet dream: forest swallowing the horizon, hidden courts tucked among the trees—tennis, basketball, and soon a shooting range for Aunt Jasmine, who’d demanded it with the casual menace of a woman who’ll make a cartel boss cry by simply raising an eyebrow.

She’d probably use the range to practice putting rounds through the egos of anyone stupid enough to disappoint her.

No contractors these days. No sweaty foremen, no delays, no bribes.

Just IndustrialBots—heavier, meaner cousins of the sleek domestic Homebots—chrome and blue, built like sex machines that had traded orgasms for torque. They could lift, weld, pour concrete, and never once complain about the hours or demand health insurance.

They were erecting the range right now, extending the guest house, tending the underground levels where the real magic happened.

Because of course we had underground levels. Every proper lair needs a basement where the bodies—and the breakthroughs—are buried.

Production floors hummed quietly below, turning out everything we needed in elegant, self-sustaining loops. The IndustrialBots built the Homebots. Built the drones. Built the Quantum Watches.

No supply chains to choke, no factories in hostile countries, no nosy investors wondering why our patents read like science fiction written by a horny god.

We made everything ourselves.

Well, they made everything. I just sketched the impossible on a napkin and watched metal gods bring it to throbbing life.

The Quantum Watches were the golden child of production—still small runs, never mass market, but enough to dangle in front of Liberation Holdings clients, sovereign funds, and the occasional dictator with a trust fund.

Those buyers got the Q Watches:gorgeous, revolutionary, and deliberately castrated to ten percent power.

Ten percent was still enough to make billionaires cream their bespoke trousers. Holographic displays, quantum encryption, processing that turned every other device into a quaint antique.

The real Quantum Watches—the full, uncut, vein-throbbing monsters—those stayed in the family. On the wrists of my women. On mine. On the handful of people I trusted not to accidentally end civilization while checking their notifications.

We walked farther.

Madison on my left, fingers laced with mine like she owned the hand—and, let’s be honest, she could have it. Vivienne on my right, her newly cropped hair catching the dying light, shorter now, brushing her shoulders, making her neck look devastatingly biteable.

She’d cut it on a whim a few days ago and somehow emerged even more dangerously beautiful, like sharpening a blade you already feared.

All my women were beautiful.

Stupidly, unfairly, ruin-a-man beautiful.

I’d offered them beauty enhancement pills once—the subtle ones Madison had slipped Mia. Nothing drastic, just optimization. A little more symmetry here, a fraction tighter skin there. Turn goddesses into weapons of mass seduction.

They’d refused. Every last one.

I’d even asked Taboo about it, half expecting the system to tell me to override their objections for their own good.

Instead: [They don’t need it, Master. They’re already perfect in your eyes—and, more importantly, in their own. Forcing the issue risks turning desire into resentment. Let them choose.]

So, I let them.

Still didn’t fully understand it—they knew I’d want them covered in dust or diamonds—but it was their skin, their reflection, their exquisite, maddeningautonomy. I respected the boundary even while my baser instincts sulked like spoiled children denied a toy.

We reached a low rise in the terrain, a natural vantage that overlooked a wide expanse of lawn.

Fifty yards away, half-buried in the earth like some modernist art installation designed by a megalomaniac with impeccable taste, stood the massive entrance to the drone vault.

Brushed steel, geometric lines, blue accent lighting pulsing softly along the seams—beautiful enough to pass for sculpture, strong enough to survive a direct orbital strike while looking bored.

Behind that door slept hundreds—maybe thousands—of drones now. Fifty rolling off the line every day, networked to ARIA, each one a flying eye, ear, and occasionally fist. Enough surveillance and precision strike capability to make entire intelligence agencies wet themselves in envy and terror.

I stopped, sighed, and turned to the women flanking me.

"Okay," I said, voice low. "The secrecy, the scenic route—what’s the crisis? Someone run out of lube?"

They exchanged one of those looks—silent, loaded, wordless conversation perfected after enough shared nights, shared lovers, shared sins.

Then they both smiled, slow and wicked, and I realized there was no crisis at all.

Just business.

Their kind of business.

I looked at them.

Madison wore casual elegance—fitted jeans hugging every dangerous curve, a simple white blouse unbuttoned just enough to tease the eye, minimal jewelry save for the Quantum Watch gleaming on her wrist and the engagement ring that screamed mine in diamonds and intent.

Hair loose, makeup barely there, she looked every inch the eighteen-year-old queen she was: young enough to turn heads, old enough to ruin lives with a smile.

Vivienne had chosen sophisticated nonchalance—black slacks tailored to perfection, a grey cashmere sweater that cost more than most people’s rent yet draped like it didn’t give a damn, her newly shortened waves framing a face that now oscillated between youthful mischief and lethal promise.

She radiated the calm, predatory confidence of a woman who had already lived several lives and decided this one would be the most delicious.

Both of them devastating. Both of them mine.

My teenage empress and my seasoned siren.

They guided me to one of the estate’s absurdly expensive outdoor benches—hewn teak and steel that probably had its own trust fund—and sat me between them like a throne they intended to share.

Another glance passed between them, silent and conspiratorial.

"Good news first," Madison said, "or the better request?"

I chuckled, leaned in, and claimed Madison’s mouth first—slow, deliberate, savoring the familiar strawberry gloss and the soft little sigh she fed me. Then I turned to Vivienne, kissing her with the same unhurried possession, feeling her lips curve into a smile that tasted like victory.

No frenzy. No desperation. Just the quiet, filthy intimacy of people who own each other body and soul.

When I pulled back, both women were flushed, pupils blown, breathing a fraction faster.

"Good news first," I said, voice rough at the edges. "Save the indulgence for dessert. I want to savor whatever scheme my beautiful devils are cooking up."

Madison’s grin flashed triumphant as she extended her palm toward Vivienne.

Vivienne groaned theatrically, fished out two crisp hundred-dollar bills, and slapped them into Madison’s hand with mock resignation.

I laughed. "You wagered against me?"

Madison stuck her tongue out at Vivienne, quick and teasing. "This is why I wear the crown, darling. I know exactly how his mind works—especially the parts that end with him buried inside one of us."

"You’re insufferable when you win," Vivienne muttered, but her eyes danced.

Then the playfulness drained away, replaced by the razor focus I loved just as much.

"Serious now." Vivienne activated her Quantum Watch. A holographic display bloomed between us—crisp financials, property listings, architectural renders floating in the golden air like expensive witchcraft.
