“Yeah, my head fucking hurts. No big deal.”
I don’t tell him that I hear a whisper in the back of my mind, something that keeps calling out to me as well.
No, not something.
Someone.
The Vyastil. He won’t leave me the fuck alone, and it’s messing with my mind.
My eyes ache, and there’s a piercing thrum right at the base of my skull. I wish he’d leave me alone, but I’m pretty sure he won’t. Not after last time. He’s been very clear about what he wants from me.
“Why don’t you go home?”
I frown and shake my head. “No, it’s almost lunch. You won’t be able to keep up.”
“Man, I’ve got this. I’m not hungover today,” Sai says and then flips a hot dog up with his hand, as if to show me he has skills. Only problem is, it lands on a passerby who cusses at us.
Sai ducks down behind the stand, his eyes wide with panic, and I wave in apology. I don’t really have much more to give than that.
“You aren’t as talented as you think you are,” I say, kicking him lightly with my shoe.
“I fucking am. Did you see that breakfast dog I served up? The way those hash browns sat on those eggs…it was glorious.”
I sigh and then rub at my temples some more. The thought of food is making me a little nauseous.
“Dude, honestly, go home. You look really sick. I’ll call Xavy and see if he can come by and help. He does nothing but smoke weed all day anyway, and he is always bored. Bet he wouldn’t mind coming down here and helping out.”
“Call him, and if he can take my shift, I’ll leave.”
“Yes.Come to me.”
I’d roll my eyes, but that would hurt too much. Damn monster is infiltrating my brain and making me ache in all the worst ways. My dick just stopped hurting a few hours ago, and now this. When I see him again, I’m going to give him a piece of my mind.
Make him beg for my cock. Make him list why he needs it so badly, and then maybe tease him with the prospect of having me again.
Asshole. It’s what he deserves.
Thankfully, after a small bribe of all-you-can-eat dogs, Xavy agrees to take my shift, and Sai sends me off. I get into my car and rest my forehead on the steering wheel, taking a deep breath and trying to will the pain away. It doesn’t work. I need to go home and take a long shower, pop some meds, and try to nap.
Only problem is, I end up at the New Beginnings Clinic instead.
I’d like to blame the Vyastil for this, that he somehow took control of my limbs, but it was all me. My head hurts, and I know he won’t leave me alone without getting what he wants—my cum. And honestly, I’m worn down. I just want some peace.
I want him to get out of my head.
This is the only way. He’s going to keep bothering me until he gets what he wants.
Pushing through the doors, I check in, and the girl behind the counter gasps when she sees my name.
“Oh good. Everest. So glad you’re here.” She sags forward slightly, and I can see relief flicker across her face.
“He keeps bothering you, too?”
“He’s been…very insistent.”
My fingers dig into my temples, and I massage them. Not that it helps. “He’s annoying.”
She huffs a laugh before rolling her lips between her teeth. “He’s not used to being told no, I think.”
