Romans & histoires Cell Phone Demon

His grip tightened around his collar. "Hey man, let go of him." They freed their colleague away from his grip. "Man, I think you need to really go to a specialist. You need to get yourself checked. We already told you, there's no such thing as demons. They don't exist." "Demon exists. I tell you, they exist." He looked around, then suddenly called out to her daughter's name. "Rosemary! Rosemary!!" He called out angrily. "Where the fuck is this useless child of mine."

Even though I knew exactly how things would end, it still didn’t stop me from parting my lips to release a moan. “Cathwulf Aibek?” said a small voice. My heart somersaulted to the back of my throat, and every molecule of my transparent body tightened with terror. There was only one reason a demon visited our cells, and that was to take us out for exercise. And by exercise, I meant torture. I squeezed my eyes shut, scratching their surfaces with lids encrusted with grit. “But I already had my punishment.” I tried not to let my voice shake, but the effort was futile. “Check your clipboard.”

Ready for an attack, I peer around the corner and watch the thing sniff my phone. It plants a giant paw on it, growling in frustration when the phone keeps ringing. If only there were a way to record this, I could get a lot of money from the phone case company for an advertisement. Keeps your phone safe against accidentally dropping it, a quick plunge into water, and colossal demon dogs. What is that thing? And more importantly, how do I kill it? I could conjure the biggest energy ball I can and throw it at the creature. Even if it doesn’t kill it, that thing will be seriously injured. There’s always the option of trying to telekinetically snap its neck, but it’s already proven difficult to

“Please come back as soon as you can. I’m feeling on edge.” Caiden hugged her carefully and kissed her forehead before teleporting to the demon world. *** The demon realm looked as it usually did with a dark sky, lava and black rocks everywhere. To Caiden it felt more unfriendly than it usually did now that he had a demon he was worried about. He spotted the usual two demons that always stayed around the teleporting area and approached them. Their names were Liam and Ben and they were mid-level demons who always made very quick contracts with humans.

“Yes, but with short distances like this, it’s not a problem.” “What about teleporting? Can you do that?” “Can demons do that?” “How would I know?” I shot back. He chuckled, burying his face in my neck. “You’d think she’d have learned something from living with one for months now.” I sent my elbow into his side, but he didn’t so much as wince. “She hasn’t. Said demon has been preventing her from learning about demons.” “The books aren’t accurate. They even spelled my name wrong.”

I explain. “That explains how he has kept himself alive. We must discover how he caught this demon and where he kept him. Ghaazi had to remodel one of his cells to hold a demon. If we could find out who helped him remodel that cell of whatever he is holding the demon in, we might be able to free the demon. If someone doesn’t stop him, then that will attract more attention to our realm than is needed.” Hamal points out.

Cash said unhappily. “Then why not just invite him here?” Reggie asked before I could. “Because if Leif finds out where we are, then Dandaline will find out, and then so will the source of all our problems. The demon already knows, and has been...here, in a manner of speaking. I doubt it’s going to be reporting back to the witch, since it’s already been set loose from the original possession.” Cash said, reminding me that the demon, Nybbas, originally possessed one of Cash’s employees.

I could picture him, standing in that house, his heart heavy with grief and guilt, trying to explain the unexplainable. But Lady Athena's response was calm and measured, her eyes holding a depth of ancient knowledge. "Silas, the demon doesn't need a physical form to exert its influence. It’s like a ghost. It's not like any ordinary creature. Hence, it does not leave a trace – no scent or footprint.” Lady Athena continued to explain, "The demon's influence is insidious. It feeds on fear, grief, and despair. It can manipulate emotions, twist perceptions. But it is not corporeal."

she asked. "Just a few of our top warriors, Beta Valor, his son, and Nigel." "You had our son out there fighting a feral?" Her voice shook with disbelief. "He came back alive, didn't he?" Nolan growled. "Pipe down." Cameron leaned forward. "That thing... It was talking. Ferals don't talk." Nolan's jaw tightened. "That's because something is possessing him. A demon. We don't know who it is or how it got inside him."

I beg to him to release me, but he doesn't acknowledge me or even turn to me. He pulls me past cells, all full of women and several men. Each either giving sympathetic looks or relieved ones. Likely relieved that he has a new 'toy' and they are spared for now. After we pass the last cell, we pass several large rooms and a wide hall. The hall is lined with several demons with eyes similar to Yeomorah's and to Nox's. They chuckle and whistle as I fight to get away. Several near us and Yeomorah slows down, giving them time to brush my skin or to grab my behind.
