Running With The Demon Novels & Stories

Mason had outraced his demons, but where there is one there will always be more, and this underground street life was sure to invite more trouble. But for now I could enjoy this. And him. And us.

How can you be sure of this unless you are in cahoots with her yourself? "I am not in cahoots with a demon!" Maddie replied, her voice rising. "I know this because she has been sending demons to attack me too. These creatures are out there, multiplying by the minute because of Aosoth's mere consciousness on this earth. Imagine what would happen if she eventually rose to power."

The demon fell onto its back and began crawling backward, retreating from her with clumsy, desperate movements. The third didn’t wait. It turned and ran. A demon from the underworld, running from an omega who weighed half as much as I did. Emili turned her head toward the fleeing figure. The dark mist swirling around her stretched out like a tentacle, catching the demon mid-escape. It wrapped around it, lifted it off the ground, and slammed it into a tree with enough force to split the trunk. The demon didn’t get back up. The big one — the one still on the ground — crawled into the forest shadows and disappeared. Emili let it go. As if it wasn’t worth the effort.

But at that moment, trapped inside the fear driving me to finally run the last few steps to the patio doors, I was nothing. It was so time to get my demon back. ***

And making her feel ashamed and worthless seemed to be exactly what the demon desired most. - "I'm going to pee in your little mouth, Clara.." the demon whispered in a hissing tone - and it made her mouth water again, though Clara fought desperately not to show it - not to give herself away. Some part of her still tried to resist, even though she knew that the demon could sense her true dark desires. "It will flow like a warm stream down your throat. Open wide.."

“I’m going to have you, Julia. I’m going to fuck you until you beg me to kill you.” A bubble of fear bursts inside me, lending me strength. I shove Amos with everything I can muster. It stumbles back half a step, and its grip loosens just the tiniest amount, but it’s enough. I jerk my arms away, breaking free from the demon’s hold. With nowhere else to go, I turn and run toward the back door.

"Hey, hey, look there! She's there, you bitch!" They were coming toward us. I didn't think. I just ran yes, I ran not from humans but from demons, whose eyes burned with pure lust. My whole body was trembling, shaking violently. My feet were bleeding. I'm sure they left bloody footprints behind me but I didn't stop. I ran for the baby girl who held my finger. How could I leave her here? I didn't think. No one else had survived, and even if they had, those men were coming with madness in their eyes. I couldn't leave her. Not like this.

“We need to go. You don’t understand—” “I understand perfectly,” Demon interrupted, his voice tight. “You think you can just run away from all of this? That you can escape Adonis and everything that’s happened? It’s not that simple.” Amelia’s eyes filled with tears, her voice breaking as she spoke. “I don’t care about any of that! I just want to be with you. Please, come with us!” Demon’s expression softened for a brief moment, but then he shook his head, his resolve hardening. “I can’t,” he said quietly. “I have my own loyalty, my own obligations. I can’t just walk away.”

I'm speechless. What's going on with this demon?

Beads of sweat were running down my back as a realization of my impending doom was only seconds away. “Don’t run away from your destiny, girl.” They were closer now, too close. I pushed my body further as I ran through the forest once again. Ducking under the low-hanging branches. I didn’t know where I was going; I just knew I had to get away. The moonlight was my guide in the darkness. My only beacon of hope that would somehow lead me away. It was all I could think of, dream of in this moment. Running was all that I could do to get away. I missed judged a step again, tumbling down a small hill. My whole body propelling downward in a blur of flailing body parts. My face cracking off the fore
