Dear Elle, I'm safe. Fay (AKA still your best friend, even though I disappeared). "Is he serious?!" I yelled out in frustration, throwing the piece of paper away from me in anger. "Samael is not known for his jokes. He's serious." Adrian said carefully whilst snatching Samael's letter from the air. "We asked him for a long letter from her, not a few words!" I snapped, right before I sighed deeply. This whole thing was making me angry and frustrated, and I was taking it out on Adrian unfairly. "She's alive, she's safe." Adrian said as he pulled me close. He didn't mind my snappiness. He said it was 'normal' in the demon realm. "I don't mean to snap at you, I'm sorry." I sighed out with my eyes closed. "Don't apologise. I like your feistiness. Especially last night, when you took it out on my naked body." Adrian grinned and my sour mood brightened very slightly. "Gross, guys. Come on." Elyse complained loudly. "This is nothing, last week a new species of flower was found. We all fo
"I want to play a game." Anna mysteriously said. "Okay..." I responded and looked at her with patience. "Let's summon a demon." We all had plenty of wine, but I didn't think we were THAT drunk. "Excuse me?" I answered. "I'm in!" Fay immediately shouted. "What? No! Fay, Anna, we are not summoning a demon." I said with a stern voice. "Are you scared?" Anna said with a mocking horror voice back to me. I looked at her with a huff. "Scared? No, of course not, but why would you even want to summon a demon? They don't exist?" I asked her with a shake of my head. "Come on, it will be fun! Maybe the demon in question can help me with my school work. You know, I will sell my soul and stuff." Anna said with a serious tone. She had been failing one of her classes repeatedly, and always blamed the teacher for it. "You're joking, right? You are going to summon a demon to get higher grades?" I responded to her. My head was a bit woozy from the alcohol and I tried to ignore the look
My eyes shot open."AAAAAAAAHHH!!!"We all screamed and I tried to jump back, but my hands were frozen in place by Fay's and Anna's. "What the fuck!?" Fay shouted in panic, looking at our intertwined hands. "Who are you?" Elyse asked in a panic tone to the man. "I can't believe it worked!" Anna shouted at the same time.It was a frenzy for a while. We were rooted at the spot and everybody screamed in panic. "Shut it." The man said and we were so shocked, we all fell silent in an instant."I felt some human females make contact with my world. I just HAD to see for myself who would be so foolish to attempt such a thing." He said in a deep voice. He was tall, really tall. He looked like an ordinary human. And by ordinary human I mean human looking- but more like a god. Black hair that complemented his perfect sculpted face. Not a blemish in sight. He wore a black suit but it was tight enough that I could see his muscles through the fabric. I saw a golden chain underneath his suit. Is thi
For some reason, I thought that maybe he wasn't physically there. But the moment his skin touched mine, it all became very, very real. I felt embarrassed that I even felt a trickle of lust in my body when he touched me. Shrugging it off, I looked at the spot where he just stood in front of us. Nothing remained of the guy that just dominated our home. I quickly gathered all the candles and blew them out, erasing all evidence of what we had done. "What do we do?" I asked my friends."What do you mean? What can we do? He's gone." Elyse answered but she nervously looked around the room. I sighed. I guess that was true. "He was hot though." Fay added in. I let out a grin. "I feel like I'm dreaming. Did this guy seriously just appear in our living room?" I asked out loud while rubbing my head. I definitely had a lot of wine. The best thing to do right now is get to bed. "We have school tomorrow. I'm going to bed." Anna said while already walking to the bathroom."No! Dibs on the bathroom!
I choked on my food and Dante let me go, instead clapping me on my back to help me survive. Reggie ignored me but Fay, Anna and Elyse looked at me with a question in their eyes.Did I imagine his voice? Was he really inside my head? I questioned what was happening to me when the voice continued.'I'm very protective of what is mine. Remember that.'I froze again. My breath picked up and I tried to relax. I released my food and put my hands in my lap, which were starting to shake.His voice was exactly the same as last night. Deep, dominating and terrifying. What if we actually fucked this up? What if we really were the reason for Mr. Stevenson's heart attack?"You don't like the food?" Dante asked me and I shook my head. "No, it's delicious. I just... I have a.. Headache. Yeah, I just feel a bit dizzy." I answered. I tried to suppress the shaking off my hands and tightly shut my eyes to release some pressure. When I opened my eyes again, Fay was looking at me with concern in her eyes
We ate our food in mostly silence at the dining table. My hunger completely disappeared for the second time today and I was stabbing my food with the fork like it had offended me personally."Is there anything we can do? There must be a way out of this kind of thing, right? I mean we didn't pay." Elyse said with a hopeful voice and she glanced at me. "Maybe he will collect his payment later." I said in a grumpy voice. I felt utterly defeated and empty. It felt like I was in a surreal situation, like I was under water and as soon as I got to the surface, it would be over and I could step out of the water and dry off. Back in the sun. I bit my nails in anxiety until someone knocked on our door. We all froze on the spot and we all looked at each other with panicky eyes. "Who's there?!" Fay shouted. No answer. "Let's not open-" I whispered-KNOCK KNOCK"Who's there!!?" Fay shouted louder this time. Another no answer. "I will get it," Anna said after 10 seconds and with protests from us
With a heavy heart, I got ready for Dante and Reggie's 'dorm party' with the girls doing their make up next to me. It was quieter than usual, and there was a sense of anxiety around us that we couldn't shake off. No more gifts came for us but the warning note that he left in the car still lay in the closed closet, where we hurriedly stuffed it in as soon as we got home.Elyse was still in possession of the car key but hadn't driven it yet, although the whole school knew that the shiny new car was her and they had no shame asking her for lifts to various places. She shrugged all comments and questions off but I did notice the lingering stares from Elyse to the Mercedes. She had wanted her own car for years but hadn't had the money to buy one. It was her dream to one day own a brand new Mercedes and there it was, in the parking lot of the school. I would be really happy for her if the circumstances were slightly different.I hadn't heard any more voices in my head but his eyes still fol
My head swayed and I stepped aside to steady my feet. The boy held out his arm and grabbed my lower arm to steady me. "What are you doing? Don't touch me." I said in a harsh tone. His finger gripped my arms tighter and I flinched back. Tiny black spots lined my vision and I tried to blink them away.'Little dove. Is someone touching you?'His voice resounded once again in my head. I was too dizzy to comprehend what was happening, but looking at the boy in front of me, I felt like his voice was similar to the sound of the heavens opening. I wanted to voice my thoughts back but my other hand was gripped as well, pulling me back to the bathroom in the dorm room.The boy pushed me against the cold stone wall of the bathroom and kept my arms to my side with force. "You're coming home with me." He said in a disgusting tone and I tried to fight, tried to loosen my hands, tried to bring my knee up, tried to move my head forward, anything. But my body wasn't moving in sync with my brain and I
