Under the incubus' protection Chapter 12
I was in Desmond’s hefty arms before my brain could contemplate the situation.He carried me to my bedroom and laid me on the bed like a bride. His face hovered close to my face, gazing intently into my eyes. The power of his eyes was something else. It was like staring into two multi-chrome suns, holding the power to blind your logical thinking instead of the eyes.His pink lips were inching toward my lips. Before they could touch, I put a hand between our mouths and pushed him back. “Get away from me!” I pushed harder.He stepped away and raised his hands in the air. “Just trying to help you. I think you fell for something at the door.” He winked at me like the little seductive devil he was.“Move away from me more. Your back must touch the door. I don’t want you anywhere near me,” I commanded, covering my eyes with one hand. There must be some magic in his eyes that he was using to hypnotize me. I was not driven by lust, especially not for some douche who had hurt my friend Mason

I watched the rain pour from Becky’s front-row passenger seat. She had picked me up after work on my request. We were parked on the street close to a store. The lack of sleep I had been experiencing for several nights was taking its toll on my mental health. A lot was going on in my head. It was spine-tingling to think that I could lose Mom in a week. How could someone be so heartless? Also, Desmond’s face kept flashing before my eyes. The way he spoke and behaved was confusing. His character was still a mystery to me. For multiple reasons, I didn’t say a word about him presenting himself as more than a non-solid ghostly apparition to me. The embarrassment of getting sexual with him out of lust was one of them. However, I also wished to give him a chance to prove himself. If Mom didn’t get better by midnight, I decided to expose that secret to Elaine.According to Mia’s latest update, Mom was still in a coma. “Your Mom would wake up soon, Cass. I know,” Becky comforted me from the

We sat in the waiting room while the doctors ran some final tests on Mom. I finger-combed my strawberry-blonde hair. Without makeup, bags under my eyes, and hair in disarray, I looked like a hot mess. Desmond might cancel our contract if he saw me in that condition. Other matters aside, I at least owed him an apology for treating him too harshly. It was generous of him to bring Mom back to health when I refused to provide what he wanted.I scanned my environment and found Becky missing. “Hey, where did Becky go?” I said to Mia.“She went to her car to grab a spare shirt or something. I think she spilled something on her clothes,” Mia informed me.“Okay,” I said, putting my fingers in my hair again.“You are brave, Cass. Among us three siblings, you’re the one who did something to save Mom. I’ll never forget the sacrifice you made for our family,” Mia remarked. Her thankfulness melted my heart. It was nice to be acknowledged by someone.I hugged my sister. “Thanks. Your words mean a l

“Desmond,” I called once more. By now, my legs were shivering. A grim feeling took over me. Something ominous lurked in the shadows, and it wasn’t my incubus. As the shadow stretched on my walls, it revealed itself as a figure of a long-haired woman. I goggled at it from root to bottom. It had expanded to such a degree that if I were consumed by its darkness, no one would ever know. That’s when my fight-or-flight response activated, and I made a run for the door. I would have fled earlier if my brain hadn’t frozen with terror.Pushing through my door, I luckily reached the hallway and banged at my sister’s door in front of me. “Open the door!” I called for help and screamed at Mia’s and Mom’s doors.“Mia!” I focused my energy on one door, screaming as loud as I could while throwing my fists at it continuously.I dared to glance back at my closed bedroom door and saw the same shadow peeking through the small gap at the bottom.“Oh, shit!” “There is something outside. Don’t open the do

“Would you open the door for me?” I requested Desmond standing outside my bedroom. He had already helped me check on my family. As they were sleeping soundly, I did not bother to wake them. Also, with Desmond around, I didn’t need to.“Sure.” Desmond opened the door like it was nothing and went inside. He had seen the terrifying demon as well. Why wasn’t he scared? Were sex spirits incapable of feeling fear?“It’s safe to come inside,” He assured me.With some feelings of uncertainty, I crossed the threshold. The image of the shuddersome shadow towering over me and the life-threatening chase would haunt me till my funeral. I made it to my bed and buried myself under the covers.“Do you want me to blow the candle?” Desmond asked.“No, please leave it be.” I had lit the candle for him. Did Desmond hear my call? Or was he saving me moments before death a coincidence? On my right, the mattress sank, and I felt his weight as he climbed on the bed.The hypnotic urge to taste him the first t

Lips smacking, tongue sucking, and moans of arousal. The kitchen of my parents’ house, where only innocent memories had lived before, seemed like the sexiest place on earth with Desmond.His powerful hands picked me up by my waist and put me on the counter, knocking down some things in the action. With his velvet mouth on my mouth and his hands around my body, I couldn’t care less about a mess.My fingers dug into the back of his neck. His ability to light my mouth on fire hit differently each time. I would devour that wet pleasure bomb of a tongue of his, for real, if I could. “Open your mouth a bit more. Let me see that tongue of yours,” He said to me.My tongue obeyed him like he was its master of pleasure. As soon as it was out, he attacked it like his prey and sucked hard on it. Maybe he heard my mind because that was exactly what I wanted to do to him. I had my chance when he paused, and I seized his tongue inside his mouth, forcing it to come out of its shelter with unforgiv

Half asleep, I rolled to my left to cuddle with my incubus. Instead of his ripped, warm body, my hands landed on the cold sheets. My fingers searched for him around my bed but couldn’t find him.“Desmond,” I called for him in my morning woolly voice.Still, no response came.Once I opened my eyes, I found the space next to me empty and unwrinkled. There wasn't a trace of anyone having laid on the sheet. “Where did he go?” I yawned and covered my gaping mouth.The needles on the clock gave me a reality check. It was noon. I had slept all morning! My silly self was expecting an early morning hour.“Oh no, Mom!” What kind of daughter was I who had left her fresh out of a coma mother to care for herself?!After putting on a long, baggy tee shirt, I rushed downstairs without touching anything else.It was hard to believe what I saw downstairs. Mom was cooking in the kitchen all alone.“What are you doing, Mom?” I snatched the spoon from her hands. “I know I am a terrible daughter for slee

Fear and dread are small words to describe my emotions. A lump of painful anxiety was stuck in my throat. Eventually, my tightened chest muscles would give out, bearing one astonishing news after the other.My stomach turned. I am not sure which of the following disturbed me the most:I shared a few nights of passion with an imposter, possibly a demon.Or, the man who had protected me and I had begun to grow fond of was a malignant spirit.“Cass, are you okay?” Becky touched my arm.“Yes, of course,” I lied through my teeth. “What were you saying about your great aunt, Elaine?”“Madame Meredith Long is one of the oldest white witches alive. She is the only one I know capable of detecting an imposter correctly. If Desmond is an incubus with some special ability, then she is the only one who can confirm,” Elaine answered.“Is she still practicing at eighty? She must not be able to travel a lot, so when can we leave to meet her? Or perhaps we can call her?”Elaine pursed her lips. “She l
