Mei
Two blissful days have passed. We’ve defeated five of Diablos’ monsters, which means they get their wish, we’re just waiting for Diablos to come and make it official. Canto rang and left a message for the demon. I’m sure as soon as he gets it, we can get this over with.
I’m straddling Leaf, torturing him as I slowly ride him to completion. He holds me tight, his lips pressed to mine, swallowing every cry I make.
Diablos walks into the room.
“OH, holy hell! How many times am I going to have to see this? Get off his giant dick, we need to talk.”
Diablos turns to face the door. Leaf carefully lifts me off his cock and sets me aside, the whole time, letting out this menacing growl that is pure threat and promise.
The Sirens launch into the room, ready to kill.
“Wait!” I say because we want this wish. We need it. “Let’s hear him out first.”
Diablos gives me an approving grunt. “Smart girl.” Diablos hums, and I hear his claws scratching on something as thesilence builds. Just as suddenly, he breaks it. “Right, I wish I could help you, but sadly, Deux is still alive.”
The blunt information falls into the room around us and drops like a bomb. My body trembles, and I put my head in my hands, letting out a little sob.
“I’m sorry, what? We killed him!” Lirin shouts. “His body was splattered on the cliff.”
“I’m sorry to tell you, but reports are that he’s alive and having fun murdering innocent people.”
Ronit groans and turns away. “We have five days left. Five.”
I jerk my head up and study them with what senses I can. “Five until what? What does five days mean?”
They all freeze, and they don’t say anything. Leaf is just as confused as I am and moves up beside me. Why are they keeping secrets? What do they have to hide?
I reach until I feel my robe and pull it on over the long t-shirt I was wearing when Diablos walked in. I feel like I need more clothes, more protection.
Why aren’t they speaking?
Becky slams through the front door, her scent filling the space and making everything almost intolerable. I don’t want her in this space. It’s mine, but before I can say anything, she’s across the room.
She slams into Ronit, hitting him hard. When Lirin tries to stop her, Puppy appears with a growl, startling me. His rage erupts between us and grows in a dangerous snarl. I can feel the air move as he sweeps my alphas back, hurling them towards me and pulling her protectively behind him. She lets out a murmured protest that everyone ignores. The whole situation is downright alarming.
“You lying snakes. You pieces of shit!” Becky shouts.
“Becky!” I say in an icy voice, stalking between her and my alphas.
She snarls, but it’s lost some of its heat.
“Do you know what they’ve done?” Becky shouts, and I think she’s almost in tears.
I shift my weight uneasily. “I know about the deal.”
“Do you know about both of them?”
Both? What both? A sinking feeling opens up in my stomach. Both? What does that mean?
“The wish?” I ask hesitantly, but I’m unsure now.
“And what they get out of it!” Becky roars. “You’re not doing it. I won’t let you.” She shouts at them with no fear.
Unease spears through me. “What is she talking about, Canto?”
He inhales and exhales, but he doesn’t say a word.
