The Incubus and His Secretary
Strangely, they felt like hands; normal human hands that didn’t burn my skin on contact or draw blood.
I looked up at the figure in front of me and for a second, the beauty of the eyes that were looking back at me, struck me. Amethyst with a hint of grey and blue. They were human eyes, unlike the red orbs of the creatures that were surrounding me. Hope bloomed in my chest. I wasn’t alone. Someone was here with me, someone human!
But then those hands pushed me away and the creature turned to face the others. I don’t know what happened next but the moaning and groaning sounds increased in crescendo until they were like screams coming from all directions.
