As I laid there waiting for sleep to take me. I was startled as my eyes drifted they landed on a human shaped shadow again by the bathroom door. I tried to roll. Nothing happened. Scared now, I tried to reach my phone. My arms wouldn’t move. My breathing was getting rapid. The only thing that would move is my eyes. Why can’t I move? From the corner of my eye, I saw it. The shadow moved from the doorframe towards me. It was an ambiguous huge male human shape with a hat on its head. Once it reached the bed, it stopped. Less than a foot from me and I couldn’t make out any details. My heart was racing, and my breathing was ragged. Male knuckles traced my jaw from my ear to my chin. The touch was gentle. Intimate even. A husky, seductive chuckle filled the air that still smelt of the candle. “I know what you need little gazelle.” The shadow shimmered. Now I could see the details. He was at least six foot two. Dark skin, bald head, and wearing jeans that clung to his muscled legs. An unbuttoned dark purple shirt displayed his taunt chest. The moonlight showed his beautiful smile as he leaned towards me. I tried to speak, but nothing came out. “Shhh. I’m going to make it all better.” ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation.

Malam itu, langit tak hanya memerah. Ia menangis darah dan memanggil bocah yang seharusnya mati kemarin. Gohan Lee berdiri sendirian di ladang tua saat angin berhenti dan udara membeku. Bocah kurus itu memeluk keranjang rumput liar di dadanya. Pakaiannya tambal-sulam. Kain lusuh membebat tangan kanannya, sisa luka sabit bulan lalu. “Anak dungu itu lagi,” gumam seorang petani dari kejauhan. “Masih belum kapok dihina?” Gohan menunduk, pura-pura tak dengar. Sejak kecil ia dikenal lamban, bodoh, dan tak berguna. Tapi malam ini... bumi menyimpan sesuatu untuknya. Tanah bergetar pelan. Langit... berubah merah darah. “Apa-apaan ini...?” Gohan mendongak. Pusaran awan hitam menggulung tepat di atas kepalanya. Angin lenyap. Burung diam. Lalu suara datang dari dalam bumi, geraman rendah seperti raksasa bangkit dari tidur. Dan tiba-tiba... BLAAARRRR!!! Petir emas menyambar keras. Tanah di depan Gohan terbelah. Api memancar melingkar. Dari kawah itu muncul sebuah pedang. Berdiri tegak. Tak bergoyang. Pedang berkilau merah emas, dengan gagang berbentuk naga menggigit ekornya. Aura panas mengalir darinya. Udara berdengung. Waktu seakan berhenti. Gohan terpaku. Tubuhnya menolak bergerak. Lalu suara datang. “Gohan...” “Kau belum siap. Tapi waktumu tiba.” Suara itu bukan suara manusia, tapi gema... dari langit. “Apa... siapa kau?” Gohan tergagap, lututnya gemetar. Tak ada jawaban. Tapi dadanya membara. Jantungnya berdetak seperti genderang perang. Dan di kejauhan... terdengar benar-benar suara genderang. Samar. Jauh. Tapi nyata. Beberapa petani yang melihat kejadian itu menjerit. “P-Pedang Langit!” “Itu bukan legenda?!” “PEDANG ITU MEMILIH PEWARISNYA!” Gohan melangkah, tak sadar. Satu langkah. Dua. Tiga. Tangannya mengulur. Tak tahu kenapa. Tapi darahnya... tahu pedang ini memanggilnya. Begitu jemarinya menyentuh gagang... BZZZZTTT!! Cahaya menyambar. Dunia runtuh. Gohan berdiri di tengah medan perang. Ribuan mayat berserakan. Sungai darah emas mengalir dari tubuh para dewa. Di kejauhan, seseorang berdiri... ...dengan wajah yang sama persis dengannya. Namun mata sosok itu bersinar merah. Di tangannya, pedang yang sama, berlumuran darah para penguasa langit. “Aku... siapa?” Gambaran itu hilang. Gohan terbangun di ladang. Tubuhnya terpental, jatuh keras. “Ghh...!” Ia meringis. Tapi tangannya... bersinar. Di telapak tangan kanannya muncul simbol melingkar, bercahaya emas, dengan tujuh bintang kecil di dalamnya. Simbol itu berdenyut pelan, menyala lalu meredup. Dan untuk pertama kalinya dalam hidupnya, Gohan merasa... ia bukan manusia biasa. “Apa... yang terjadi dengan tubuhku?” Langkah-langkah mendekat. Warga desa berkumpul. Tapi tatapan mereka... bukan hinaan. Tapi takut. “Itu... simbol Langit Ketujuh!” “Anak ini... pewarisnya?” “Dewa penghancur... telah kembali?!” Seorang tetua, yang biasa memaki Gohan sebagai beban, kini berlutut gemetar. “Ribuan tahun... dan justru dia yang dipilih?” “Aku?” Gohan tergagap. “Tapi aku cuma anak biasa...” “Justru karena itu,” gumam sang tetua. “Langit tak pernah memilih dari singgasana, tapi dari lumpur.” Sebelum Gohan bisa bicara, suara kembali bergema di benaknya. “Cari tulang naga... sebelum fajar.” “T-Tulang naga...?” Pedang itu kini diam. Tapi langit belum selesai bicara. Awan hitam menggulung dari utara. Angin berubah tajam. Dan di langit, muncul simbol besar, menyala merah darah: simbol klan Li. “Itu segel darah terkutuk!” “Klan Li... sudah punah, bukan?!” “Siapa mereka?” tanya Gohan, bingung. Tapi warga tak menjawab. Mereka memandangnya seolah melihat kutukan. Tiba-tiba, seorang wanita menerobos kerumunan. Napasnya terengah. Wajahnya pucat. Ibunya. “GOHAN! Jangan sentuh pedang itu!” jeritnya. “Ikut Ibu sekarang juga!” “Tapi... Ibu lihat sendiri. Pedang itu—” PLAK! Tamparan mendarat di pipinya. Bukan karena benci. Tapi karena takut. “Kita harus sembunyi! Kalau mereka tahu kau yang dipilih... dunia akan memburu kita!” “Siapa ‘mereka’? Apa maksud semua ini?! Aku cuma anak desa!” Wanita itu memeluknya erat, tubuhnya gemetar. “Maafkan Ibu... Kau bukan anak kandung Ibu, Gohan.” Deg. “Apa maksudnya...?” “Kau... darah langit. Darah yang pernah menghancurkan surga.” Dunia Gohan runtuh sekali lagi. “Kenapa baru sekarang...?” “Karena semuanya telah dimulai, dan kita tak bisa menghentikannya.” “Ibu... aku takut...” Sang ibu mencengkeram tangannya. “Mungkin kau akan sendirian. Tapi dengarkan baik-baik... Darahmu mungkin milik langit. Tapi hatimu milikmu sendiri.” Langit bergemuruh. Petir membelah awan. Sekilas, naga hijau raksasa menampakkan diri, lalu lenyap di antara kabut malam. Pedang emas itu menyalak ke langit... lalu padam. Tanah hangus. Langit tetap merah. Tapi luka di bumi dan cahaya di tangan Gohan tidak akan pernah benar-benar hilang. Dan dari dalam pikirannya, suara itu terdengar sekali lagi. “Langit tak pernah memilih pahlawan. Hanya alat... untuk menghancurkan segalanya.” Gohan menatap langit, matanya gemetar. Dan malam pun pecah. Bersama takdir yang baru saja terbangun.A black swirling tornado blew into the small room. It morphed into the familiar sight of Kerrigan. One day I’d find out why a demon had a daffodil tattoo on their neck.“Yo Yo Yo!” Their voice was higher than normal. Black coal-like eyes flicked to me than back to the incubus. “You need something boss?”“Where have you been, imp?” His voice was like steel. Oh, someone was big mad.“Just taking care of business Boss!” They produced a duster from their lime green chef smock to wipe off the bookshelf that lined the wall. How had it fit in their pocket? “Office is coming along nicely boss!”“Kerrigan. Last chance.” He looked all menacing and hot. My girlie bits were still recovering from what we had just done and I wanted more. Surprised, he shot me a not now woman look. The tingle shot through me again. Clearing my throat, I reigned in my libido. I’d unleash it later.Kerrigan’s hair snakes wilted. Except the one I assumed was Glen. He just looked at me haughtily. “We were just taking
The second the call ended, I closed my laptop. I stared blindly for a moment. Did I really see what I thought I did? No. Surely not. Could I have imagined the imp tornado in the reflection? Even if it was an imp, it didn’t mean it was ours. Just because they kept disappearing. And Rich was my ex that could possibly cause problems for their demon boss. Shit. I think I know what Kerrigan and Kensington have been off doing. Now, how to break it to their demons.I chewed my thumb nail. Caspian was probably in the office downstairs. Sighing, I realized that if I didn’t go tell him, I would be keeping secrets from him. That was something I hated. Ugh. I stood up to go do the right thing. I slunk out of the room to traverse two flights of stairs to potentially upset a demon. What could go wrong.Now on the ground floor, I went through the foyer to the hall that ran beside the main staircase. Rehearsing what I was going to say in my head, I turned to the left to go down the hall that the gara
Waking against my will at the sound of the alarm the next morning, I stretched. My girlie bits were sore from Caspian claiming them the night before. Chuckling, I acknowledged it was my own fault for believing his early night line. I was working up the energy to roll out of bed when I was suddenly pinned under a demon.His warm sexy mouth was on mine with his hands caging my face. That long sexily muscled body of his was pressed against my lower half. Moaning against him as mulberry wrapped around me, I arched my back. My nipples grazed his chest. He moaned at the contact. Then pulled away to look down at me.Lust blazed in his glowing brown eyes. Frustration in his voice as he spoke. “I was going to let you go to work unscathed but…”His voice trailed off in an implied threat. I tugged his beard to bring his mouth to me. I kissed him quickly. “I have to get up. You can have me late.”Dramatically, he threw himself to the side and covered his face with his arm. “Fine. Leave me.”I gig
Snuggled together, we fell asleep. The next morning, I dressed simply in a pair of jean shorts and a deep red sleeveless shirt. My bigfoot slippers on my smaller feet. When I came out of the closet, the room shimmered. Caspian matched my outfit as usual. This time even wearing matching slippers. I chucked and tugged his beard to bend him down to me for a quick kiss.He led me down the stairs. On the main floor, we heard some voices coming from the kitchen. Holding hands, we walked through the archway. Ace and Carissa were leaning on the counter sipping coffee.“Good morning!” Carissa greeted us. She waved a hand towards the island. “Look at this spread!”“Welcome to my life.” I grinned. The island was covered with multiple flavors of scones, blintzes, egg muffins with peppers and onions, bagels, and a breakfast pizza. Various flavors of cream cheese and fruit compote filled cute little bowls. A platter of fresh chopped fruit was off to the side. Bacon, sausage, and toast rounded out
Four orgasms and a quick shower later, we slipped back into bed. Once again, we curled up together. This time my head on his chest. His arms wrapped around me. Under my hand, I could feel his heart beating. Mulberry was wrapped around me in soothing cocoon. I loved this man. Gently I kiss his bare chest. Hmming he kissed the top of my head.I lifted my head, so I was looking into his captivating brown eyes. My finger traced his seductive lips. I leaned forward like I was going to kiss him. then veered to his ear. Provocatively I whispered in his ear.“Tell me about Lena and Bodhi.” I tugged his earlobe between my teeth. He moaned lustfully.“Keep that up Querida, and I’ll bend you over something and fuck you until you can’t walk for two days.” Frustrated desire tinged his voice. Under me I could feel a bulge starting to press against me. Needing answers, I ignored it for now.“I’m already going to have trouble walking thanks to that anaconda you call a penis.” I snuggled back into his
There was no movement on the screen. A faint whisper was heard. Since I remembered what he said, I could make out the words. Ace and Carissa replayed it, trying to hear it better. Lena and Bodhi exchanged looks. I suspected they could hear Caspian.As we watched, there was a faint flicker on the screen. Then a shadow moved from the kitchen area to behind the couch. In the video, my breathing obviously increased. The shadow moved around the couch and flickered away. If I had to guess, that was when he took on his usual appearance.For the next few minutes, nothing seemed to be happening. Smiling, I remembered what he been doing to me at the time. I was grateful that we hadn’t made a porno.“Ok, this is way less titillating than I thought it would be.” Carissa pressed the fast forward button. When it reached max speed, we could finally see some movement. It was slight but occasionally my body would jerk or twitch.As I watched the video, I flashed back to that moment in time. I remember
