A Demon’s Kiss
"They are wondering if you're a Demon, like me."
The way he says that word. Demon. He makes it sound as if we are Gods, above everyone else.
"People are terrified of you. Half the room is gone," I note. There's an obvious gap between Keo and I dancing and the rest of the crowd. Most are too curious to leave now, wanting to see what the Demon will do to the hosts wife.
"They hate Demon's. Everyone hates Demon's."
"Kastriv doesn't." I scan the room for my mate, but I cannot see him. I know he hasn't abandoned me, and that he will be close, ensuring Keo doesn't do anything, but for moral support, I wish I could see him.
