Devika's POV
The next morning, I came down by 6:30 after my morning ritual to find Mr. Young making breakfast in the kitchen."Good Morning Mr. Young" I greeted as I poured myself a glass of water."Good Morning Devika, how was your night?" he asked casually making me remember the feel of his hands against mine."It was nice Mr. Young" I replied taking deep breaths to calm the stupid thoughts am having."Drop the title already and go back to the way you spoke to me yesterday" he scolded lightly in a tone that made me wonder if he was joking or if he was serious.The thought of being casual with him excites and arouses me beyond comprehension as I find my stomach clenching and unclenching."I'm really sorry for that Mr. Young I didn't expect that you would be so young and ha..." I began to say without thinking at all. I wasn't even done speaking when I found him standing in front of me.His six-foot-something-tall frame towering over my 5'6 frame as he asked "And what Devika?""Nothing" I replied with a trembling voice that I didn't recognize. The proximity was fucking with my mind and body and I just can't help it.The way he spoke to me excited me as much as it scared me and I'm unaware of how to act or react."Really?" he asked again making me shudder. He began to take slow steps toward me while I backed away slowly from him until I hit the wall."Look at me" he ordered in a domineering way making me feel like a predator hunted by prey."Come and eat, and let's chat later," he said walking back to the dining table.Throughout breakfast, I found myself wishing he had done something to me or at least that he will. I know it's stupid but I can't help it, 19 years of celibacy and a hot guy in front of you can do that to you.After breakfast, he suggested we play 100 questions to get to know each other and that's what we've been doing for hours. We are using this old card for the game and it's been fun for the most part. He's a pretty interesting guy and I can't help but wish he is 'THE ONE' for me but that's wishful thinking. I once felt the same way about Tyler but look how it ended up for me."Next question," he says, picking up the next card from the pile. His lips curve into a smile as he asked "Any romantic commitment?""None" I replied as this little voice in my head began to wish that he would ask me out. My heart raced at the thought but I had to calm myself down while suppressing the urge to rub my chest."You won't ask me?" he asked in an amused way making me look at him. Looking into his eyes, It's like am being engulfed in a dark pit with no way out. There was no emotion there, nothing to give away his thoughts so I asked gently, "Do you have?" I tried my best not to sound interested even though I am."No, am readily available" he replied with a smirk that makes me feel naked.I picked up the next card and smiled at the question as I said"This is easy, how old are you?" I asked but instead of answering, he looked away. His reaction baffled me and I soon found my hand at the side of his face, the tingles coming to life as I turned it to face me."Hey you can't possibly be that old" I teased but his eyes trailed from my face to my chest."You are playing with fire little one," he said, his eyes not leaving my chest. My face and core burned in embarrassment but there was hope, he could make a move.A part of me wanted to just sit down and say nothing but then I found myself speaking. "Little? Am not much younger than you are" I challenged with no idea where the confidence came from.He looked at me with those bottomless eyes of his as he said."You really are something". There was a hint of amusement in his low voice but there was something else. Before I could process anything, his hand traveled to my face and the sparks made me shudder, falling right onto his lap. My face was on his shoulders, facing his neck while my palms were rested on his chest.3 of his buttons were open so some of my fingers were touching his skin and the sparks and tingles were dancing throughout my body. My yoni throbbed in anticipation as the sexual tension was killing me."I'm sorry, I didn't mean t..." I began to say when his lips covered mine.Remember those sparks I talked about? They are nothing compared to the sensation of this kiss. My whole body is on fire, my yoni danced with joy and I prayed he wouldn't stop. His kiss was demanding as if he was trying to conquer and dominate me and it felt so good. His hands moved all over my body making me arch my back, my chest meeting with his as I squeezed his hair in my hands but he stopped.He just stopped without warning and I almost cried, I'm so turned on but even though I want him to continue, I can't help but feel it's for the best."Consider it your punishment for not listening, next time you apologize for anything I won't stop," he said in his domineering tone making me shudder at the ray of hope."Understood?" he asked"Yes," I answered with a nod as I became embarrassed. He came on me and instead of stopping him, I went with it and I was even wishing he would go further."Good girl," he said, got me off his lap, and went upstairsTears of disappointment left my eyes like a steady stream. At a point, I even considered making a mistake to apologize for in hopes he might kiss me again. I can't believe am so cheap and easily seduced.Am sitting on one of the porches, admiring the green lands as I think and letting nature consume me.I have never been this type of girl who just craves to fuck and be fucked but with him around it's all I can think of and it scares me. I came to this small town for a reason but I barely think of it especially since that's the one thing that kept me awake for months before.Taking in the fresh air, I let the calm and peace engulf and consume me. I didn't realize I was smiling until Damien whom I had no idea was here mentioned it."I didn't know I was smiling" I replied shyly at the way he was looking at me."I didn't say it was a crime either" he replied be saying "Go wear something nice and come out""Why?" I asked getting confused as there was no reason for him to take me out."A little birdie says if I don't help you take a look around town, you'll spend the whole summer in your bedroom" he teased making me laugh as I think of Pheobe. I could never have guessed they were in touch and for a second, I began to suspect that this may be her plan to make me fall in love again. That's the only thing that can explain why he acts the way he does around me."Well as much as that sounds sexy, I'm sure you will appreciate this little town of ours" he added making my face flush."Sure" I reply leaving immediately and am sure that am practically running at the moment.What's with the guy and his flirtings? I don't think my poor little heart can take this.I know what I can do, yes, I'll just ask him nicely to stop with the flirtings but why does it make me feel this way.I wore a jean trouser with a cropped off-shoulder top and sneakers. Coming out into the driveway, Mr. hottie was leaning casually on his car wearing a long sleeves cardigan and trousers.He looks so hot and the way he's openly checking me out is doing plenty of things to my body, to my heart, and my mind. Being this hot should be a crime cuz am sure am not the only girl who feels this intense sensation around me.He smiles at me, that type of smile that shows a guy knows you are into him. He grabs my hand, igniting those invisible flames that send sparks of pleasure through my being. I want to ask him if he feels the sparks but I'm too busy enjoying the sensation until it was gone making me feel an immense level of disappointment.He had let go of my hands, closed the door for me, and was entering into the driver's seat."You know if you want me to hold you, you can just ask" he teased as he put his seatbelts on."No thank you" I replied, looking out the window as we drove out of the compound."Okay," he replied casually."Where are we going?" I asked after a few minutes of silence."Sightseeing" he replied with a smile as he looked at me."Can we check out Wema avenue then?" I asked hopefully."Why would you want to go there?" he asked with a casual smile and I couldn't help but turn away from his gaze."It's nothing, forget about it" I replied not wanting to tell him that I wanted to see a witch that lives there.Damian's POVMy mate is seating in my car and we are driving through town. She doesn't seem like she's enjoying the ride at all. Her mind must be occupied and I hope it is occupied by thoughts of me.For months after I met her, I stayed in the shadows planning our meeting. I didn't think I could have that kind of patience but after you've spent a millennium waiting for something, waiting a few more months would be nothing.The only problem is the insanity and restlessness of not seeing her face. She's still so young and bright and I don't want to take her life away but am selfish. She's mine and I want it to be that way. I'm too old, too demanding with urges she may not be able to handle while she's human but I want it to be her choice. Hopefully, she'll choose to be with me. I take a left turn, driving straight to wema avenue as requested. This is witches' territory and is sure they've sensed my arrival. I drive straight to one of the biggest shops on thi
Chapter 4Devika's POVThis is the 5th time I'm waking up tonight and it's not even 5 am yet. No matter how hard I try, I fail to fall asleep so am going downstairs. I walk slowly and steadily downstairs, not wanting to wake up Damian.Opening the backdoor, I walk to one of the pool chairs there and lay down, looking at the sky.Over and over again, the images of Damien fucking me keeps hunting me and I keep suppressing it as much as I can. I haven't even been here for 10 mins when a hand grabs my leg making me scream. I'm sure that was a hand but I can't find anyone. Without a second thought, I run to the light switch and turned it on.Coming back to where I was seated, a figure emerged from the water with a mocking smile on his face."You idiot!" I scream, finally able to breathe."What? Thought it was a ghost?" he asked with that sexy sweet smile of his."Nope, ghosts are way nicer than that, they don't just grab you without reason" I retor
Devika's PovThe streets were dark, the night eerily calm and there was no one or cars in the distance. I don’t remember how I came here but I know I should keep walking so I do just that. The street lights were on and there were fairy lights on most building giving off a vibe of celebration. The more I walked, the weirder things became until I woke up in a bed with a man beside me.I couldn’t make out his face but I could tell he was handsome, we were both naked, cuddling each other. I should scream right? But I don’t want to, it feels peaceful like home or at least how I imagined a real home to feel like.“Who are you?” I asked the strange man.He smiled and replied “Your beginning and your end”.“What does that mean?” I ask“You’ll Know soon little witch” he replied and placed a wet kiss on my lips.I was about to ask him more question when the sound of my alar
Damian’s PovJust like every other year, Camille has me teaching Occult 101 to her witch students and sometimes, giving how I willingly agree, I wonder if she has me under some sort of leash. This year, am here eagerly for a different reason, Devika Clare, my little mate.Seeing her stand there in the midst of the crowd, reminds me how young and bright she is. Sometimes, I get caught up in the fact that she is my mistake that I forget how young and fragile she is, inside and out.“Camille, how did it go?” I asked with hands in my pocket. If am going to teach Occult with my mate here, then I need to make sure my secret remains a secret.“You are Damian so we’ve got your back” she replied with a smile.“I’m not one of you” I replied. Fixing my eyes on my mate. She was wearing a long sleeve black cropped top and a denimjeans. Her bright brown hair, running down her shoulders in beautiful wave curls. Her brown eyes shinned under the sun, a pure reflection of the
Damian’s Pov“Hey what’s wrong?” I ask holding her face in my palms. Instead of answering, she shifts her gaze away from me as she struggled to get her face away from my grip.“Are you okay? Is there anything you want?” I ask looking intently at her but she still doesn’t.Running out of options, I got out the car and came to her. Opening the door, I turned her to face me yet she won’t look at me. “Did I do something wrong?” I ask and she shakes her head.Not knowing what else to do, I pull her into my arms letting her cry as much as she needed.“I’m sorry about your shirt”, she said pointing at her tears which had soaked my shirt.“Sorry doesn’t always solve everything little witch” I say making her look at me with wide eyes.“I didn’t mean to” she argued“Yeah, but you did so you have to pay for it” I reply, clos
Devika’s PovWhy do I care? Why am I such a busy body? I can’t even understand what am thinking or what am doing, I just want him back so badly but why?!This is so infuriating, am not this type of girl so why am I reacting the way I am? I can’t think or focus on anything but him, his face, ocean blue eyes and shiny brown hair.I can feel myself spiraling slowly and I have no idea how to save myself. Sometimes, I begin to wonder if he has me under some sort of spell. It has to be right? It’s been 3 days! Three fucking days since he and I last talked and he didn’t come back even though I literally begged.After all efforts I’ve been putting into my practice, I still can’t sit still to meditate and relax, it’s barely working and here I am today, ready for another day of school. Phoebe did fulfill her promise of calling that night but I didn’t feel like talking so we only chatted a bit.I want to bail on sch
Damian’s Pov“Dude go back home already, are you planning to stay here forever?” Aaron says as I walk into the living room. “Yes” I reply and he gasps, sometimes wonder if he still thinks he is 19 not or something.“But why?! I’ve been able to have a proper snack with you around.” He whines and I almost laugh. “I’m having a mid-life crises Aaron, so I’m sure you see how that could be a problem for you?” I ask teasingly making him sigh in frustration.Getting up from his seat, he turns to me and say “It is none of my business dude so please just go home.”I relax further in the chair, completely ignoring him as I stare from my phone to the door.“Why have you been staring at the door?” he asks wearily“Why have I?” I ask back in amusement as someone knocks on the door. Aaron looks at me questioningly and I just gesture for him to open the door. Opening the door, my favorite person in the world walk into the room with one of my most annoying underling.“Sir!” Jason greets,
Devika’s Pov “I’m sorry, that came out the wrong way”, I reply awkwardly, hoping he didn’t misunderstand. “It’s okay Devika you don’t have to apologize” he replied with a smile. “So? Am I forgiven?” he asks and I nod. “Great because I have something planned but it all depended on you accepting my apology”. He replied, pulling me back into the house and to the living room. “Where are we going?” I ask curiously as I try not to focus on the butterflies in my stomach nor the tingling sensation coming from where her held my hand. “Wait here” he said as he let go of my hand and walk into the dark living room. He lit a candle, letting its tiny light illuminate the room as much as it can. He uses the single lit candle to light the other candles, giving the room a very warm and cozy vibe. There was a tent and white blanket at the living room floor, the couch and sofas were nowhere in sight and in front of the tent is a circle tray with goodies in it. There’s pizza, glass cups, biscuits,
