Chapter 217: Almost Home
"You know," sighed Désiré as he and Luca watched the scene in front of them. "I never thought I would see the day when an orgy was just... blah," he sighed a second time. "Where is the passion? The enjoyment? It’s like these people aren’t even trying anymore."
With a wave of his hand, he let forth a toxic cloud to envelope the twenty or so men in front of them, giving them a much quicker death than the one he had originally planned. Really, there had to be something wrong with both him and Lust that he weren’t even just a little interested.

Even Salvatore seemed to be having fun by using his gift of manipulation to make the people jump into a small body of water beside the road. Within seconds, the gators opened their mouths to eat the offering, smiling the entire time.
