Lust Sync: Every Woman Wants Me Now-Chapter 44: The Mirror King Awakens

The rooftop garden was alive with moonlight and madness.

Charles stood at its center, shirtless, his chiseled chest slick with sweat that glistened under the silver glow. Around him, tension crackled like a summer storm—thick, electric, and soaked in desire.

Ayaka stepped closer. Her dark eyes shimmered, her petite frame framed by a cropped tank and yoga shorts clinging to her curves. "Take it off," she whispered.

He arched a brow. "Take what off?"

"Everything," Vanessa said, her voice smooth like honey and venom. Her crimson dress hugged every sinful curve, her long legs shifting with predatory grace. "You started this... now finish it."

Charles chuckled low in his throat, fingers drifting toward his belt.

Then—creak.

The door opened behind them.

A new presence shifted the entire air.

Her.

Sierra.

She stepped through the doorway like a queen returning to her court. Her robe was black silk, clinging to damp skin still warm from a late-night shower. Bare legs glided across the tile, and her hair clung to her shoulders like black flames. Her eyes... unreadable.

"Oh..." Her voice was a blade, cutting the tension with surgical precision. "So this is what happens when I leave you alone for five minutes?"

Ayaka stepped back. Vanessa narrowed her eyes. Charles didn’t move. Not yet.

Sierra’s gaze locked onto him, piercing through his casual stance, right into the very part of him the system had awakened.

"You think I don’t feel it?" she asked, each step echoing against the tiles. "The Sync. The heat when you touch them. The surge when they moan for you. I feel it, Charles. Every. Damn. Time."

"Sierra—" he began.

She reached him. Without another word, her fingers curled into his hair, pulled his head down—and kissed him.

Not soft. Not sweet.

It was claiming.

Possessive. Angry. Raw.

Ayaka gasped. Vanessa tensed.

When Sierra broke the kiss, her lips were swollen, her eyes burning.

"You want him?" she asked the others, voice steady and challenging. "Then fight for him."

Ayaka blinked. "W-What?"

"You heard me," Sierra said. "No more playing nice. We’re all synced now. We all feel it when one of us gets his touch. This isn’t just about sex anymore. This is about control. This is about who he chooses."

Vanessa’s smirk returned, laced with fire. "You want a competition, princess? You’ll get one."

Charles raised his hands. "Wait, are we seriously doing this?"

Sierra cupped his cheek, her thumb brushing his lips. "You said you wanted intensity, Charles. Now you’re going to drown in it."

Suddenly—

> [System Notification] Lust Arena Event Unlocked: Hearts at War Sync Rate Increased: Vanessa + Ayaka + Sierra – 95% Emotional Turbulence Detected. Libido Spike: 300% WARNING: Mental Strain May Occur

"Oh, shit, what did I do. This is going to be troublsome" Charles muttered.

---

The penthouse had never felt smaller.

The "arena" wasn’t literal, but the energy—the fire—was real.

Sierra reclined on the couch like a goddess on her throne. Her robe was barely closed, one leg crossed over the other, her smirk challenging.

Ayaka stood near the minibar, gulping down cold water, the condensation dripping down her toned stomach. Her tank top clung to her, wet and see-through, exposing the faint curve of her bra beneath.

Vanessa sat in his lap, one arm slung around his neck, her thigh pressing against his. Her lips hovered near his ear.

"This body’s mine tonight," she whispered, grinding gently. "Let them watch."

But Sierra stood. "Not yet."

The robe fell open.

She wore only lace panties, black and sheer. Her breasts stood proud, nipples already hard, chest rising with her breath.

Charles was shocked at the attire, but at the same time feeling horny.

Ayaka choked on her drink. "You’re really doing this?"

Sierra nodded. "No more hiding. I want him. I’m not ashamed of that. And I’m not afraid to win."

Vanessa rose, red dress slipping from her shoulders. "Fine. Let’s do this."

Ayaka stepped forward, cheeks flushed, but her eyes fierce. "Then we all show him who we really are."

Charles’s heart pounded. His entire body buzzed like live wire. "Wait—what the hell is going on here?"

Sierra pushed him gently onto the couch. "Sit."

Ayaka straddled one thigh. Vanessa took the other. Sierra knelt between his legs, her hands sliding along his thighs, lips parted, eyes locked on his.

"You’ve made us burn for you," she whispered. "Now it’s your turn."

The room pulsed.

> [System Alert] Tri-Sync Activated Lust Levels Critical. Synchronization Point Nearing Climax Threshold WARNING: Emotional Overload Detected

His body tensed as pleasure and emotion clashed. Their thoughts, feelings, fantasies—it all hit him at once. The desire, the jealousy, the need.

Their minds were syncing, and his system was the anchor.

Ayaka pressed her forehead to his. "Do you feel it?"

Vanessa’s tongue traced his jaw. "This isn’t just sex anymore."

Sierra looked up at him from between his thighs. "This is devotion."

Then—it hit.

A burst of energy exploded from his chest. His vision spun. The world turned red.

---

Charles blinked.

He was floating.

Gone was the penthouse, the women, the lust-soaked room.

He stood in a void of swirling crimson. Endless chains coiled like serpents in the air, pulsing with power.

At the center stood a man.

Tall. Barefoot. Tattooed in golden runes that glowed with an eerie light.

Charles opened his mouth, but his voice echoed oddly. "Who... are you?"

The man turned.

His face—his face.

But older. Sharper. More terrifying.

His eyes glowed gold and black. A crown of horns shimmered above his head, lightning crackling around him like a storm chained to his soul.

The other Charles grinned. "You’ve finally reached the threshold."

The real Charles stepped back. "What is this? What the hell are you?"

"I’m your endgame," the golden Charles said. "I am what comes after the Lust Sync. I am the one the system is evolving you into."

"No—this is some kind of illusion."

"Hardly." The other Charles stepped forward, and the void pulsed. "You’re syncing with them too fast. You’re feeling too much. You’re awakening what was buried deep inside you."

Then his form shattered into a thousand golden shards.

Charles gasped—and blinked.

---

Back in the penthouse.

Ayaka was straddling him. Vanessa was tugging off his pants. Sierra had her lips at his abs.

But they all froze when he jolted upright, breath ragged.

"Charles?" Ayaka whispered, concerned.

He stood abruptly, sweat dripping from his brow.

"I... saw something," he said, voice hollow. "Someone."

Sierra’s eyes narrowed. "A vision?"

He nodded.

Vanessa moved closer. "What did you see?"

...Me. But not me. Older. Stronger. Different. He said he was my endgame."

Before they could respond, the system buzzed again—

> [System Update Initiated] New Objective: Confront the Mirror King Synchronization Link Established: Temporal Threadline Detected WARNING: Your Destiny Is Being Rewritten Betrayal Event Probability: 84%

Charles stared at the glowing text.

"I think... the Sync isn’t just awakening them," he whispered. "It’s awakening something inside me. A deeper version. A darker one."

Sierra stood, robe forgotten. "A second Charles?"

"No," he said, voice tight. "The Mirror King."

Outside, lightning split the night sky.

---

Far away...

In an underground chamber laced with ancient sigils, a woman opened her eyes.

Her crimson robe clung to her curves, and a black gem pulsed between her breasts. Her long black hair floated around her like she was underwater.

"It’s starting," she whispered.

From the shadows behind her, a man emerged—hooded, armored in obsidian metal.

"He’s syncing too fast."

"He’s awakening," she corrected. "And if he completes the full evolution..."

The gem pulsed violently.

...then we’re all too late."

Another figure stepped into the torchlight, face hidden. "Shall we move?"

She nodded. "Summon the Council of Nine. Prepare the Ritual of Severance."

"What of the women?"

She smiled coldly. "They’re his anchors. If we can’t kill him yet... we break them."

---

Back in the penthouse...

Charles leaned on the wall, staring at his trembling hands. Power throbbed beneath his skin. His chest ached. His mind raced.

Ayaka held his arm gently. "You’re not alone, Charles. We’ll figure this out." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Vanessa stepped in front of him. "Even if we have to fight this ’other you,’ we’ve got your back."

Sierra wrapped her arms around him from behind. "Let them come. We’ll burn them to the ground."

Charles looked at the women—Ayaka’s quiet strength, Vanessa’s fire, Sierra’s intensity.

And then... the system spoke again.

> [New Skill Unlocked: Heartbound Resonance] Bond Level with Sierra: 89% Bond Level with Vanessa: 86% Bond Level with Ayaka: 92% Effect: Each woman’s emotional state now directly affects your power.

> New Trait Acquired: Alpha Core – Mirror Potential Detected WARNING: Mirror King Path Progression: 17%

Charles whispered, "This is just the beginning."

The lights flickered.

Somewhere, deep in the city’s underbelly, the chains of destiny tightened.

Then—a knock at the penthouse door.

Three knocks. Slow. Deliberate.

Charles turned.

The women tensed.

> [System Alert: External Intrusion Detected] Threat Level: ??? Warning: The Mirror Has Found You

The door creaked open—on its own.

A shadow stepped in.

Wearing his face.

Smiling.
