"My Lord… I have received grave news…" Dasaad spoke carefully.
Darkseid, who had been reading through several data files, slowly lifted his gaze."Grave?" he said. "Speak."
"Granny Goodness… the Female Furies… and your daughter, Grail, are missing. Presumed dead. The planet they were deployed to has been completely decimated. We believe the human… Jason Anderson… is responsible." Dasaad lowered his head, already bracing for Darkseid's wrath.
"I see," Darkseid replied calmly. "No matter. It only means they were weak."
He rose and seated himself upon his throne, his massive form settling like a final judgment."This also means Earth… and the human Jason Anderson… are now a danger to our plans. The Anti-Life Equation is not a goal we can afford to compromise." His eyes burned. "I think it is time."
Dasaad swallowed. "Time for what, my lord?"
"Time to make a move on Earth."
….
Back on Earth, Jason rose quietly from his bed. Zatanna, Raven, Diana, and Harley were still asleep beside him, tangled together in peaceful exhaustion. He left them undisturbed and made his way to his office.
He sat behind his desk, reviewing ongoing cases handled by the Pantheon. Executions. Containments. Operations progressing exactly as intended. After a while, he reached into a secured drawer and pulled out two rings. The rings of Atrocitus and Sinestro.
He turned them slowly between his fingers, studying every detail. No matter how much he examined them, there was nothing he could fully understand. His original plan had been to siphon power from them, or at least replicate their function with cursed energy. But the construction, the principles behind them, felt alien. Almost unreachable.
A knock came at the door.
Zatanna stepped inside. She was wearing nothing but one of his shirts, long enough to cover what she wanted covered, loose enough to make the effort obvious. She leaned against the doorframe, biting her lip slightly.
"Oh… back to work already?" she said. "Yesterday was fun…"
Jason smiled faintly without looking up. "Glad you liked it."
She took that as permission. Walking around the desk, she settled herself onto his lap and kissed his cheek."So," she asked softly, "what are you working on?"
Jason wrapped an arm around her waist. "Nothing much. Just trying to understand how these rings work."
Zatanna picked them up, examining them with a curious tilt of her head. "I heard they run on emotion. A spectrum or something like that."
Jason nodded. "That's what I've gathered too."
"So why study them?" she asked.
He leaned back slightly. "If I understand the mechanism, I might be able to imitate it. Create a similar system using cursed energy. It would help our people harness power more efficiently. A secondary energy source instead of relying purely on internal reserves."
Zatanna hummed thoughtfully. "But these are emotion-based. How do you plan to integrate that?"
Jason smiled. "Cursed energy is emotion-based too. You remember, right? It's born from negative emotions in our world."
She paused, then nodded slowly. "You might be right…"
Then her smile turned playful. "Want me to help? I think I have the skills for this. Though… I'll need a lot of testing. Using your cursed energy specifically. Which means…" Her voice dropped, slow and deliberate. "You and I are going to spend a lot of time together."
Jason raised an eyebrow. "You really pulled a switch on me. You hated my guts less than a week ago."
Zatanna shrugged lightly. "I decided to stop lying to myself. I know how I feel now. So prepare yourself. You're getting Zatanna Zatara's full love and attention from now on."
Jason smiled.
"Well," he said calmly, "I'm glad."
The door opened quietly as Harley slipped inside."Jason!" she chirped.
Her eyes immediately locked onto Zatanna sitting comfortably in his lap, and a wide grin spread across her face."Well well… looks like someone's been domesticated."
She bounced forward and hopped onto the edge of the desk, facing him, legs swinging."Looks like Daddy's turning into a real playboy," she added cheerfully. "I like it."
Jason sighed, rubbing his temple. "Meh. Not like I can refuse any of you. You're all way too beautiful to turn down."
Zatanna smiled at that, a soft sound escaping her as she leaned in. She kissed him deeply, unhurried and unapologetic. When they finally broke apart, Harley clapped her hands once.
"Hey! Share it with me!"
Without hesitation, Zatanna leaned over, and the two women met in an equally deep kiss, playful and bold. Jason watched them with open appreciation.
"This," he said slowly, "is… sexy. Also completely your fault."
They broke apart and turned to him at the same time.
"Our fault?" Zatanna asked, eyebrow raised.
"Oh no," Harley muttered, already recognizing the look in his eyes.
"Yep," Jason replied. "Time for another round."
He stood up and grabbed both of them without ceremony, already pulling them close.
...
The heavy scent of sweat and sex still hung in the air of the office, a thick, intimate perfume. Jason stood, his body humming with satisfied exertion, as the last tremors of pleasure ebbed from his muscles. Behind him, sprawled across the broad desk still littered with displaced papers, Harley and Zatanna lay in a spent, nude tangle of limbs, their breaths coming in soft, synchronized pants.
It was then a voice cut through the quiet, cool and appraising, from the shadows in the corner of the room.
"Quite the performance."
Harley and Zatanna yelped in unison, scrambling into defensive crouches despite their nakedness, magic and mallet already coalescing in their hands. Jason, however, simply raised a calming hand without turning.
"Don't bother," he said, his voice a low rumble.
He finally turned to face the intruder. Lounging in his high-backed leather chair as if it were a throne, one leg draped elegantly over the other, was Mazikeen. The former Queen of Hell regarded them with an inscrutable smile, her dark eyes missing no detail of the scene.
"Good to see you again, Queen Mazikeen," Jason said, a slow, unbothered smile spreading across his face. He made no move to cover himself, his still-hardened member a blatant testament to the recent activities. "Enjoyed the show?"
Her gaze, sharp and predatory, dipped down his torso and lingered appreciatively. "Yes... quite enjoyable," she purred. "Never expected to find someone much more... well... gifted than my Ex-husband." A flicker of dark amusement crossed her features. "Looks like he gave you a real good body? Luci tended to be that kind of guy."
Her eyes remained fixed on him as she continued, a note of genuine regret in her tone. "I'd love to take you for a spin... but unfortunately, I don't have time to play with you. As such... I'd like to talk."
Jason gave a short, knowing laugh. "Had a feeling you'd say that. I don't expect the Former Queen of Hell is here to critique my sex skills."
"No, I am not," Mazikeen stated, her playful demeanor hardening into one of grim purpose. She leaned forward slightly, the leather of the chair creaking. "In fact, I am here for a pressing matter. Short explanation would be, Hell is in turmoil. The balance of the demon lords Luci left behind has broken. War is raging right now."
She locked her intense gaze with his. "I need your help to solve that. As well... Luci isn't here anymore. And you're the only one I know and trust to do this."
