All Chapters of The Shadow Pact: Bound to the Demon : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Noah’s POV Beep… beep… Beeeeeeeeeeep. “For the love of all that’s holy, Jamie, shut that thing up before they sedate me instead of you.” I muttered low, sharp, and tired. Jamie burst into wheezy, uncontrollable laughter, shaking the bed, while every single patient and nurse in the ward turned their heads to look at us.One woman looked three seconds away from calling security. Fantastic. I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole. Jamie only laughed harder at my mortified face, the fucker. “Cut it out, Jamie, or I’ll never be able to show my face here again.” “Good,” he said, still chuckling. “Then you’ll finally stay home and sleep like a normal human being.” I sighed. “We’ve talked about this. I’m fine. You’re the one actually hooked to machines, not me. I’m supposed to take care of you.”He smiled, soft and infuriatingly calm. “Yeah, but if you blackout from exhaustion, how are you supposed to take care of me? Counterproductive isn’t it?” I rubbed my face and gave

Noah’s POVI stared at the tall Black man in front of me, disgust was written across his face in block letters, my mouth open, eyes burning, and a scream crawled up my throat, ready to burst.“Scream,” he said, voice low and deadly, “and I’ll make sure you never make another sound again for as long as you live.”My mouth snapped shut. Fear slithered up from my toes to my chest and wrapped around my throat. Tears blurred my vision. I should have screamed, raised an alarm, done something, but I couldn’t. Something about him pressed down on me, heavy and suffocating. Whatever it was, it didn’t feel human.He sighed, rubbing his brow like I was the inconvenience here, then started toward me. I scrambled backward, heart pounding. Every step he took, I took five. He stopped, groaned and vanished.My breath hitched. He just… disappeared. I blinked hard, rubbed my eyes, stared at the empty space he’d occupied. Nothing.Then I turned my head and nearly passed out again. He was crouched right b

Noah’s POVThe sound of the bus screeching to a halt in front of me snapped me out of my daze.Beside me, Kael made a small, very undignified squeak, mouth falling open.Yeah.Definitely his first time seeing a bus.I was pretty sure he would’ve walked right up and examined every inch of the thing like a museum curator inspecting a newly unearthed artifact if I hadn’t grabbed his sleeve and yanked him back.“What is this metal construction?” he demanded, eyes wide.“There are humans inside? Is it a public carriage? Is it alive? What’s it called? A car? A taxi? Answer me, goddammit!”I sighed and rubbed my brow as the relentless assault of questions continued, the Lord-knows-how-old demon poking me like an overexcited preschooler.“It’s called a bus,” I said flatly. “And get in before it leaves.”“The mighty oracle finally answers,” he grumbled, stepping onto the bus and then promptly freezing, unsure what to do next.I had to physically drag the demon to a seat.Quite embarrassingly,

Kael's POVI stared at the door of the room Noah came back to enter after he bolted out of the room in embarrassment, muttering under his breath.Cute, it I'm being honest.The way he flares up like a porcupine when irritated, kinda makes me want to rile him up even more.I chuckled as I remember how red his neck became when he found himself on top of me because of the pull of the tether and how even redder it became when I pointed out his erection.Makes me wonder how red his face and neck can be and do other places turn read as well?Ah questions, questions yet no answers in sight.My train of thought came to a screeching halt as he stepped out of the bathroom.Water droplets trailed down his body down to the waistline of his shorts and I followed it with my eyes.The shorts he wore clung to his damp skin, faint steam fanned his body. He was not muscular, yet not thin… just him, just right.My gaze lingered for far too long, tracing lines I shouldn't have, noticing the way the shor

Noah's POV Ha"…What did you…hel…no…"HaIt hurtsHaStop crying HaIt hurts HaIt's tastes weird Ha"Help!! Please!!!"Don't die*************************************Beep…beepThe air smelled like antiseptic.Chilly. The bright fluorescent lights of room burnt my eyes as I struggled to open them.Something scraped down my throat every time I tried to swallow.I taste plastic.I wanted to force it out of my throat but I couldn't move.Every thing hurts.And that beeping? God it hurts! Ramming me like a high-speed train.The sound of the door being slid open filled the room but I couldn't move to find out who entered the room.When I saw a person wearing a scrub enter my field of vision, I sighed in relief knowing where I lie.When she noticed my open eyes she bolted out of the room.What happened next was a blur as my consciousness started to fade.All that I could think, hope for is that Kael is okay.*************************************I felt like I'm falling, the darkness
