Chapter 16 ∣  He'll Never Change

-Adrasteia

I can't believe him!

Tilting my head to the side, I attempted to block out what was being said and how eyes were drifting to my body. The one thing I had come to enjoy quite a bit, was the warmth that emanated from the floor.

I'm never going to live where there is marble flooring again. Now, I do feel spoiled, enjoying the heat that it does have to offer, considering these demons don't like to wear shoes that often. With a floor as warm as this one, I can't blame them.

Actually...I can.

Keegan and I had composed ourselves. He was seated on his throne, Tyco standing to his right, while I stood to his left, looking around the large room absentmindedly. Keegan wore dark slacks and a nice maroon button-up shirt. That ebony hair of his was styled just right, his gray eyes sweeping the room with each new order of business that arouses.

While he could wear normal people clothes, I cringed inwardly at the very little selection I had. Complements of Keegan, I was mortified, as he had taken away my underwear, just leaving my bra beneath the new slim dark shorts and halter top I'd adorned after showering away the smell of my arousal that permeated his bedroom.

"Their attacks are growing more frequent with your selection of a...wife," one of the demons spoke up and I finally caught onto the conversation. He was wearing nice clothes, probably someone of importance that I neither cared to pay attention to nor act like a bitch too. For the moment that is.

Keegan arched a brow and asked, "And why is that so?"

The demon who had made this comment did look much older than many who were present in the room. He nodded his head and asked, "If I may?"

Keegan held no objections, the demon standing near the center of the room. His voice was loud, echoing off the tall standing walls, "It was before King Bram's time, most don't remember, or choose to forget, just like the vampires who walk the Earth now."

At the mention of the word vampires, this demon held my attention. My eyes narrowed on his form, seeing others quickly glancing at me and then back to him.

He paused, turning and then pointing directly at me, "Their kind, were the slaves we once held."

What?!

Vampires as slaves? Are you kidding me? In what world would that ever be a reality.

Ah, that's right...I touched the silver collar, drawing more attention as the demon continued to drone on.

"It was a very old and powerful vampire that created a rift, allowing the vampires to escape to Earth," he finished, "The demons who are a part of the rebellion are now even more satisfied, seeing her by your side as a sign that vampires can return and be slaves once again."

This went from vampires returning to where they came from to quickly being used as slaves. I didn't understand, none of this made any sense to me. Then again, I never really pictured this place as existing.

So, they just want us back because they think us the weaker species? Apparently, that isn't the whole truth. As others had said the time, I interrupted Keegan, we caused a lot of trouble when we lived here.

My eyes glanced sideways, seeing that Keegan was unmoved by what the demon had to say.

While chatting broke out amongst the group in the center of the room, I sighed, looking over their sea of heads. I caught those unique purple irises staring at me from the far-left corner, near one of the branching hallways.

Harlan was leaning up against a column, his eyes locked onto me. When I made eye contact with him, he didn't bother to avert his eyes. In fact, his stare grew more intense, seeing that brief shift in his eyes to an electric blue.

What's his problem?

I froze, the feeling of Keegan's warm hand resting against my lower back sent a pleasurable shudder down my spine. In taking my breath, I fell slightly back into his touch, my eyes fluttering shut for a second. This was undeniable, the most I've ever felt...when someone touched me.

Then his face flickered across my mind, Landon.

Damn it...

I really was trying...trying to let go of the one who had been made for me, in hopes of finding love in another. Though the universe didn't choose Keegan for me, he was quickly becoming an addiction. A very toxic addiction, one that right now I was completely aware was physical.

That's what lust is.

But...could I learn to love him?

Hearing his voice distantly while I stayed silently in my thoughts, I could see that he was handling many situations. I just hoped this one that involved me wasn't as terrible as every demon here was making it out to be.

"You may leave."

That broke me from my thoughts, not even realizing that Keegan now was standing behind me, his voice at my ear.

"Tyco and I need to speak about the rebellion and how we can truly put a stop to it. They just seem to always be just one step ahead," he sighed in frustration, but he removed his hand from my lower back.

I turned to look up at him and asked, "Will you be long?"

What...? What did I just ask?

The coldness that settled in when his skin left mine, sparked something in my body, not wanting him to be far. This was odd, unlike any feeling I ever did have for Landon.

I liked it. I wanted more of it.

Keegan's smirk made my eyes widened. I'd already felt the slickness between my thighs and I just shook my head in embarrassment. I knew he could smell me and I'm pretty sure every other demon could as well.

The air left my lungs when Keegan pulled me toward him, whispering, "I want you in nothing but your underwear and on my bed by the time I'm finished speaking with Tyco."

"B-B-But th-that just leaves my bra," I breathed out and he just chuckled darkly.

"Perfect," he replied, pulling away from me and walking to Tyco. I stood there in stunned silence, my breathing returning to normal.

What is he doing to me?! Is this because of what he is? These feelings...

...are only lust-filled? There is no care or love behind them?

Uncertainty was taking root, unsure of everything that I was feeling, knowing for sure that if this were Landon, it would be love.

Can an incubus love? Are they even capable of that?

The thoughts drifting away, I decided to take my opportunity to leave. Getting out of sight from all these demons would be a relief. Dressed in practically nothing I was slowly managing in front of Keegan. The rest of them, however, still made me uncomfortable.

Walking down and around the outer edge of the room, I began to walk down the hallway that led to Keegan's bedroom.

I wonder...

...what was he going to do with those restraints?

No, no, I don't even want to know.

I didn't like feeling out of control, especially when so many lives had relied on me for protection. It was hard to just be vulnerable, as I didn't let anyone see that side to me, hidden away in the shadows for most of my life.

I don't like being vulnerable...

Lifting my hand, I reached for the door handle. Taking it firmly and pressing it down, opening the door and letting myself in, I closed it right behind me.

"What is this place doing to me...?" I glanced up at the ceiling, closing my eye for a second and then sighing before I opened them once more.

A sudden scream escaped my lips when I found myself staring up into those purple irises once again. Harlan's arms were around me in a split second, his left arm wrapped around my waist, while the other held onto the front of my neck with little effort.

"Wh-What?" Confused beyond belief, he smirked at me, the pounding of my heart trying to level out to that of a normal pace.

"Adrasteia," his voice sent those same chills through my body as to when Keegan's had initially. His fingers not only played with the silver collar, but his left hand danced at the top of my shorts.

"Stop!" I growled, still being forced to look up into his eyes, not able to see what his fingers were doing, but I felt everything. "Why are you doing this?"

"Nothing I'm not allowed to do already," he responded, the feeling of his fingers diving down the front of my shorts and brushing my already sensitive clit made me whimper.

I struggled against him, but his grip remained strong, his fingers invading me further when he ran them up my wet slit and suddenly thrust two of them inside of me.

"I-I stop," I pleaded, heat rising in my cheeks and catching my breath when it faltered. He continued to stare into my eyes, that weird and foreign sensation traveling up my spine. It swirled around, taking hold of my mind and forcing me to relax, each new thrust of his fingers was amplified. My eyes were hazy, not able to fight that feeling taking over me. "Please..." I begged, "please stop..."

Harlan's eyes had shifted to an electric blue, our eyes continuing to stare deeply into each other's.

"It's amazing..." He spoke, his voice low and filled with lust, "He's managed to keep a virgin intact for this long. I know he can't wait that much longer, he never could," he breathed in my scent and I bucked my hips forward, moaning in the process, "oh, you like that, don't you?"

Harlan moved his fingers again and I tried to bite back the moan, but it surfaced again.

"You know, he really will never change," Harlan sighed.

"C-Change?" I gasped, my peaking building and I suddenly moaned loudly, the wave of pleasure washing over me as my walls clamped down around his fingers.

Panting lightly, Harlan just tilted his head to the side, looking me over once before whispering, "You're not the first he's treated this way, just to get what he wants, and you won't be the last. He'll never truly bond with you, even if he does take you as his wife because that would require him to relinquish a part of his soul to you. Since you have none to return to him, he'll be weaker, unable to heal and faze, leaving anyone who is a part of this rebellion to easily come and kill him. If he just bonded with another demon who has a soul, their soul would make up for the missing part of his. You would make him weak."

Again...with Landon and now Keegan...I make others weak...

I attempted to twist out of his grasp, tears filling my eyes.

"Where do you think you are going?" Harlan arched an eyebrow.

"I want to go home!" I screamed at him, but he just sighed with irritation.

"Unfortunately, Keegan still wants to keep you around, though I'm really not sure how long his fun will last for," his eyes shifted to an electric blue and my heart skipped a beat, giant bat-like leathery wings extending from his back and adding to his stature. "Now, I'll take what I've worked you up for. The absolute delectable energy to take is either during or after another's orgasm. That sexual energy...just too tempting to pass up."

As I tried to pull away, Harlan's hand that held my chin up to look at him, his thumb pressed down against it. My jaw went slack, fear building in the center of my chest when I felt an indescribable feeling leave my body and with it, leaving me weaker than I'd ever felt.

I saw the white wisps of energy leaving my lips, Harlan's own parted as he stole my energy away. Tired, I fought to stay awake, the feeling leaving from the base of my skull.

Faintly, the sound of the door opening, and closing met my ears, exhaling slowly as I sighed.

"You couldn't wait, could you?" Keegan asked, not sounding surprised in the slightest that Harlan had done this to me.

Harlan's lips closed, letting go of my chin and shifting his electric blue eyes to Keegan, "She's too tempting..."

"As I am like my late brother in some ways," Keegan was now standing in front of me, my eyes taking longer blinks in between, my eyelids trying to stay shut, "I had planned on sharing her rather soon with you. It's nice to share her lovely body, as she is just an exquisite creature."

Share?

Did I just hear that correctly?

Mates, beloved's, husbands...they don't share their significant other with their friends.

The world suddenly grew much darker and the last thing I heard Keegan saying was, "Though, I might have changed my mind with this one."
