"I don’t sleep much. I stay up most of the night trying to figure out how to make things right with Harry. I don’t get too far but I do at least form the first step of the plan, one that I’m hoping will lead to more plans later on. I’m going to call Ryann and ask to meet up with her. Hopefully Harry hasn’t told her to ditch me or something. I suspect that if he did she would do as he asked, but I don’t think he would. My tentative friendship with Ryann hasn’t really had much to do with him, at least not until now. I’m hoping that she can fill me in a little on Incubus magic and maybe a little more about Harry in general. If I'm really lucky she will have some idea on how I can get him to talk to me. Right now I'm just kind of hoping that if I give him a bit of time to cool off, he’ll take my call. Or even better, turn up to talk to me in person. Ryann might be able to give me his address, but turning up at his home uninvited feels like crossing a line. I practically leap out of bed wi

"I sit dumbly as I try to think of a diplomatic way to say that Ryann is just completely wrong. Either resisting Incubi is totally impossible OR Harry has way less control than she thinks.“Ryann… Are you totally sure about Harry being controlled?” I ask quietly. She nods.“Sure, he’s an expressive person, but I think that’s part of how he manages his emotions. He lets them out so he doesn’t let out his magic. It makes sense to me at least.” She hesitates a little, probably because she’s making a lot of assumptions there. “I can sort of see that.” I agree. It’s starting to feel a little weird talking about Harry like this. Was it a mistake to basically go to his friends to get info on him? It’s starting to feel a little creepy. It was fine when I was asking about Incubi in general, but asking about Harry… I feel like this is something that I should be talking about with him. Still, maybe I’m just vulnerable to Incubi magic because I’ve never been around it until him. Is that a thing?

"It takes me three nights to be sure. But I am now completely convinced. Every night when I’m walking home from work, Harry is secretly following me, hiding in shadows and behind bushes and buildings whenever I turn around. At first I was concerned, I thought I had somehow picked up another stalker. I was constantly hearing footsteps behind me that paused whenever I did. Occasionally I could catch the sound of rustling bushes or someone else breathing. I was a little afraid that Simon had somehow been released. I even give the police a call during the day to check that he hasn’t been released and that I don’t need to worry about him. They assure me that he won’t be getting out anytime soon and a super sweet lady promises to give me a call if that should change at any point. I start paying more and more attention to every little detail on my way home trying to figure out what is going on. I feel a little silly about it, what are the actual chances of me picking up a second stalker in o

"I wake early the next morning, not used to sleeping next to someone, but I refuse to wake up completely or get out of bed. It’s my day off and I’m in no rush to face the day. Harry stirs not long after I do, but he is apparently on a similar lazy wavelength as me because he wraps his arms around me and clings to me like I’m a teddy bear, burying his face in my hair and sighing happily. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him so relaxed. Even his magic is relaxed, sending off sleepy vibes. Actually, that might explain my sudden desire to never leave this bed. That or the very naked Incubus. Okay, so probably the second thing. Still, since I want to make it clear to Harry that his magic definitely affects me, I take the chance to remind him. “Your magic is making me lazy.” I grumble affectionately. Harry chuckles and hugs me even tighter. “Sorry, I’m just comfortable. Did you need to get up?” He offers reluctantly. “Nah, I’m good. I was just letting you know.” I answer drowsily and it does

"*Hello! Apparently some people weren’t happy that Alex didn’t get his happily ever after included in the story. I actually did plan a love interest for him, but it never fit well into the story. So, I figured I might as well round the story out to 300 chapters and add one more chapter for you all so that you know I didn't leave him as the odd man out! It's kind of long but I didn't write enough for multiple chapters and it's just their introduction but this is all you're getting! -Kit*I hover awkwardly outside of the store that Megan texted us all about. I have no idea how I ended up in this situation. When Alpha Ryann and Alpha Kane got engaged it was a surprise to literally no one, especially not us on the security team. Alpha Kane is fiercely protective of his bride so after everything that happened with their adoptive daughter Kiara, we all got to know Alpha Ryann fairly well. I’ve been added to several rather terrifying group chats and I get dragged along to an endless stream o
