Jade is a woman with a problem. Her lover, or what she thought was her lover, lost her in a game to a demon. That demon has cursed her and now she is becoming a Succubus. She does not understand what is happening, exactly, but an encounter reveals her future… and it’s not a good one. | |||

She does have the power to appear to others as their most desirable woman, like any Succubus can.
