Calix's POV:
I slowly got out of bed with Emile and looked down at him before I kissed his lips. "Emile, I'm going to visit a very old friend of mine," I whispered to him. "I'll be back soon, promise. Don't run off," I hummed out and trailed my hand down his body before I grabbed the covers he had kicked off then brought it up to his chest. He looked up at me before nodding.
"Okay.... Don't take too long... Or I'll go find Malakai and do something fun with him," he warned.
"You could always come with me~" I told him and purred, kissing his neck. "He's a demon though. You might not like hanging out with a demon other than me~" I playfully ran my hand down the top of the blanket, messing with him. "He's not near as cool as me." I brushed my hand over his manhood through the blanket then and smirked as I gave his neck another kiss.
"No... I'm going to stay here in bed," he told me and moaned slightly. "Maybe watch a few movies."
"Alright," I purred in his ear and nipped at it before I sucked on his earlobe to tease him. He gasped before yanking me down to him.
"You could stay here," he whispered. I laughed and smirked as I straddled him through the blanket.
"Yeah? I could, couldn't I?" I purred and gave him a little smirk before I ran my hand down to the bottom of my white shirt and started to pull it up a little and gave a small moan to mess with him as I showed off the top of my leather pants and part of my lower stomach. He watched my stomach before looking up at my lips. I licked my lips then, showing them off to him before I leaned down and hovered my lips above his as I teasingly rubbed my hand against him through the blanket. He moaned and reached up for my shirt, yanking it off me. I laughed then leaned in and kissed him deeply, slipping my tongue past his lips then as I shifted my weight on his stomach down to his hips slowly. He pulled back from the kiss.
"You're staying here," he whispered.
"Oh, I am?" I asked him and chuckled, moving my lips down to his neck and started to give him a love bite as I playfully shifted my weight on his hips forward.
"You can't just leave me like this," he told me and pouted. "You have to stay." I laughed and then nodded.
"Better hold on tight," I teased him and smirked. I'll go see him when I satisfy him. I started to move the blanket down his body then, revealing him in his boxers and looked him over before I moved off his stomach and down between his legs, my leather pants brushing up against the inside of his thighs as I moved up against him and kissed his neck with a playful growl, running my hands down his body to his butt.
"Sounds fair," he purred out. I laughed and moved my lips down to his chest as I gave him another love bite and squeezed his butt. I lightly grinded my hips up against his, working him into it as I ran my fingers to his thighs and pulled them up more. He gasped and reached up, grabbing my hair and yanked my head so he could kiss my lips. I purred and kissed him deeply before I tilted my head and pulled his hips up against mine more firmly. He purred and kissed me back before looking my body over and went to push my pants down. I smirked and grabbed his hands before I started to push my pants down slowly myself, teasing him. I moaned out in his ear and slipped them down before I licked up his neck to his ear then started to suck on it. He gasped before kissing my cheek. He moaned and bit his bottom lip before yanking my boxers down. I moved closer to him then and grinded up against his boxers as I caressed his thigh, moving his boxer leg up a bit.
"Emile~" I moaned in his ear and let my hot breath hit it. Damn I have a great mate....
"Calix," he groaned out. He started to push his boxers downwards. I laughed then smirked before I made his morning amazing.
~~~
I slowly got up as I pulled my pants back up my body and reached down for my shirt, glancing back at Emile as he laid there in bed. "Did you like it?" I asked him and smirked as I put my shirt on.
"Yeah~" He purred out as he curled up to my pillow. "Go have fun with your friend," he mumbled. I smirked and then walked over, kissing his cheek.
"I love you," I whispered to him then purred before I pulled away, leaving him to do as he pleased. I stood outside the front of a hotel, the hot sun searing down at me. Hell, does the sun have to be so hot here? I groaned and stepped into the hotel, my stilettos clicking on the hard floor of the lobby. I looked around as I shielded myself in the shadows, taking my non-physical form as I moved through them. He'd be around here somewhere....
"Can I help you?" I heard a woman ask. Her name tag read Maria. I frowned before I took my physical form back and walked up to her.
"Maria..." I trailed off and looked at her tag then at her with a frown. She's a half eaten soul.... He must've eaten her mostly and reduced her down to this... serving form. "Where's your master?" I looked her in the eyes then as I leaned across the counter then smirked. "I'm looking for him." Heh, would he get upset if I took what was left of Maria? "You know, if you don't like this dead end job, I could get you out of here~" I sung out to her.
"I like this job, thank you. I'll give my boss a call," she eyed me over before picking up the desk phone and punched in a number to call him, looking down at the numbers before looking up at me. I frowned. He did a number on her, didn't he?
"Are you sure?" I purred and smirked. "There's nothing... painful about this job? Nothing you hate about it? You love it here?" I reached over the counter then rubbed her cheek. "Come on, what do you say? I could make it better for you."
"Don't touch me," she warned and backed away from my hand. She brightened up as the line picked up. "Mr. Helianthus? There's someone here for you at the front desk." She looked me over, weirded out. She heard the line click before putting the phone down. "He'll be here in a minute," she promised me. I frowned at her. Damn, she's been devoured bad. I pulled away then and wrinkled up my nose. I'd only have sloppy left overs if I tried to eat her. I went over to a couch and laid down on it then, purring as I stretched out to wait on Helianthus. He'd be excited to see me~ I found a guy walking up towards the desk then. He looked completely dirty. His clothes were ripped up, and he rubbed his head. He looked utterly confused.
"Excuse me...." He trailed off. "Do you know when I got here?" He asked her. "I don't remember..." He trailed off. She gave him a smile.
"You checked in yesterday. Here's a list of things to do." She handed him a piece of paper. He took it and looked it over.
"Gracias," he mumbled as he looked it over. "Could you direct me to the-" he looked the list over. "Sand room?" He rubbed at his head, some dirt started to fall out, and he looked at his hand curiously. "Why am I so dirty?"
"You forgot to take a bath," Maria told him and shrugged. "Maybe you should do that first." I glanced over and raised an eyebrow. There's another half eaten soul. Hmm, he must be doing that to all his human guests. I laughed and crossed my feet at my ankles, watching in amusement. Making slaves.... That's an interesting idea. Free labor right there for his little playground. He lives like a king I bet. I rolled over onto my stomach and hummed as I looked out the window to the hot desert before I got to my feet and went towards the doors leading out of the lobby, going to explore. He'd smell me anyways. I heard footsteps coming then before a voice erupted.
"Who was asking for me, Maria?" I heard his familiar voice ask as he came down the stairs. "Daniel, if you're going to walk around my hotel, take a shower and put on the clean clothes my employees provided for you."
"I'm sorry?" I heard the guy asking as he turned to face him.
"Now, Daniel-"
"How do you know my name?" He asked.
"I know every guest in my hotel."
"Oh- Ri-right." I heard Daniel walking out then- going to wherever he came from.
"Calix! It's been years! I should have known it would be you asking. You have two friends staying here after all- with their servants." I turned around to face Helianthus then smirked.
"Helianthus~ I heard about your whereabouts and came looking," I purred then walked up to him, my stilettos clicking on the floor. I smirked and got right up against him. "Did you miss me little demon?" I teased him and smirked, looking at him.
"Oh yeah~! It's good to see you Calix." He looked me over- his skin was a nice pale color so he would look more human. He even kept his aura at bay. I laughed then ruffled his hair.
"So~ You've been enslaving humans, haven't you?" I purred then smirked. "Only eating half their souls. I tried to get the left over of Maria's but she wanted nothing to do with me like she was brainwashed." I moved back a bit then, looking him over. Huh, he's definitely having fun here, isn't he?
"That's because I ate away at their memories. They don't know anywhere but here.... hell they can't even leave here. I own all of my servants here- and if I don't like them enough, I eat all of them. Maria is one of my favorites. That's why I made her the smiling face of the lobby. Daniel is going to be assisting her soon. He's delicious, Calix." He smirked. I raised an eyebrow then.
"If I had a taste, would you throw an exorcist my way?" I teased him then chuckled darkly. "I'd leave him barely there~"
"You better not," he hissed. "That boy will be mine soon. You better not eat him all up if I let you have a taste. After all.... they're better to keep around after you take the best parts of them."
"Awwww, why not?" I asked and laughed. "I could shove a contract into his hands~" I smirked then stretched. "No~ I'm quite well fed these days. Contracts are easier to come by with people working in dead end jobs in little cubes.... I found a contract about... seventeen years ago? Yeah, he's amazing! I found him in an insane asylum- had been put in there because he was cutting his wrists and he tried to kill his tormentors. He's still alive," I hummed out.
"Oh yeah~? Don't you love keeping the good ones alive? They're so interesting to watch. Daniel was kidnapped about two years ago. He managed to escape but no one would help him get back to America.... then he found my hotel and he's been here for one night... His soul is so good~ So delicious... but he'll be better off staying in my hotel for eternity. They're all bound to me and my hotel..." He trailed off and smirked. "Maria is so clever, telling Daniel to take a shower. He's going to smell great." I smirked then.
"You demon," I purred at him. "Damn, I'd hate to be a human in your company. You'd eat me right up." I shook my head then and smirked. "You should come visit me and meet my chosen mate~ I have a kid now too."
"A kid?! Since when? You don't have kids Calix. You're Calix, Insanity's demon. What kind of woman would sleep with you?" He teased me before wrapping an arm around my neck. "I'll come, but it'll have to be right after Daniel goes to bed and I feed from him. Night time is safer for me to leave. That's when most of my guests are asleep." I nodded then smirked.
"You know... I'm feeling up to some of our old tricks," I told him and leaned in towards his ear. "Want to go raid a village and make it seem like an outbreak of a disease?" I whispered to him and chuckled, pulling him close. "You know you want to~ We'd piss off some angels and a few grim reapers~!"
"As great as that sounds~ I'm more hungry for Daniel. I have dinner reservations~"
"Aww, no fun," I purred then pulled back from his ear. "Helianthus, you know it's been forever~ Trust me, you want to do this," I told him and smirked, running my hand across his cheek. "Come on~ It's been forever since I've rampaged. I'm dying to be let out~ I've been in this form for over seventeen years, and if my mate found out what I was planning, he might tie me up," I whispered. "You know you want this~" I ran my other hand down to his waist. "Even the devil himself might want to hang out with me on a day like today~" Yeah, that might be stretching it. I laughed then.
"Oh.... I don't know... What if I get too full and I can't eat Daniel like I wanted?" He asked me.
"Then you can just play with him," I purred to him. "You could always have sex with him instead and then eat more of him tomorrow."
"Sex?" He asked and laughed softly. "With Daniel?" He bit his bottom lip.
"Why not? If you like his soul so much, you could always have a bit of fun with him. He's going to be stuck here for eternity, might as well make him your favorite servant." I smirked at him then. "It's just a suggestion~ If you don't like the idea, then don't. He's cute- your type. Wouldn't it be great to have a delicious soul under you? I'll lend you some leather pants if you want~"
"It's not a bad idea.... I don't normally.... do things with my servants like that." He smirked as he thought it over.
"Yeah, you could make him the only one you do that with- make him your sex slave," I suggested and smirked at him as I watched him thinking about it. Aren't I a great demon?
"I might just do that," he laughed out and nodded. "Okay. We'll go eat up a town." I smirked then and grabbed his hand before I took us to an African town and let go of his hand, sniffing the air.
"Hmmmph~ smells like regret, sorrow, despair, and poverty~" I purred out and smirked. His skin started to turn his candy cane like color as he let his true self come to play. He shoved his hands into the pockets of his tight shorts before he looked around.
"Perfect for our appetite," he whispered. I smirked at him.
"Hey candy man~" I purred then stretched before I snapped my fingers, feeling fire course through my veins before my skin paled to a dark grey and I felt my jet black feathered wings growing in as my shirt burned to ash, falling down around me. My canines sharpened into sharp points and my nails grew out, becoming a dark pitch black. I looked towards him then, seeing my blood red eyes being reflected back at me from his eyes. I grinned at him then moaned as I stretched out my wings and saw my dark aura start to surround me like mist, barely there. "Ooooh, it's been forever~! This feels so good- You know, not even my mate has seen this," I purred out to him and smirked. I heard a small scream before a child ran away in terror, screaming for help. He looked me over before smirking as he heard the kid screaming. He cracked his neck before walking after the kid. The ground under his feet started to burn- the grass becoming flaky and ashed away.
"Here kiddy kiddy kiddy kiddy," he called after him. "I want your soul." The boy screamed out in fear before he cried out for his mommy and ran away. I smirked and then appeared in front of the boy before I picked him up off the ground.
"Hey~ Where are ya going so fast?" I asked him and leaned in, kissing his cheek. "We have a story to tell you." The boy started to cry loudly and pushed at my chest. "Once upon a time... there were two demons- very hungry demons mind you- and they found a little boy just like you... and they gobbled him up~!" I laughed and leaned in, smelling his neck as he shrieked. Damn I love fear~ It's so... tasty.
"Hey! I was going to eat him," Helianthus told me as he walked up. "I like them young." I looked up at him then smirked.
"Well then come here candy demon~" I teased him then shoved the boy his way, watching as he screamed and stumbled forward, falling at Helianthus's feet. I smirked and watched them as I ran my fingers down my throat, starting to feel hungry myself. He walked up and kicked the boy down to the ground, stomping into his chest. His body started to burn to ashes, leaving his soul behind. Helianthus bent down and scooped it up before swallowing it whole. My phone started to buzz in my pocket. I frowned then dug into my pocket, pulling my phone out to look at who it was. Laurence was calling me. Oh shit. I answered then and turned away from Helianthus.
"Calix, Insanity's Demon~ Please leave a message after the beep. Beeeep," I purred out.
"What ARE you doing? Do you know how sad you're going to make Malakai if he finds out what you're doing!? Which he will because I'll tell him." I tensed then. Shit.
"What exactly am I doing?" I asked him, checking to see if he knew exactly what this was.
"You're- You're! Doing something awful! That's what! Soul eater!" He hissed. Oh, okay. He knows.
"I eat souls all the time," I hummed out. "You've helped me eat souls too."
"Well you're stealing them this time," he grumbled. "You know Malakai doesn't like this." I groaned then.
"Did you have to remind me about my son?" I asked him then looked back at Helianthus, checking on him.
"Yeah~" Laurence purred out. Helianthus was watching me.
"You just want me to quit," I grumbled. "Sometimes your power is annoying."
"Thank you," he laughed out. "You know what you're doing isn't right."
"I know I'm a demon," I reminded him. "Demons eat souls."
"Grrr," he growled at me through the phone. I tensed then.
"What? Would you prefer me to starve?" I asked him then frowned. WHY THE HELL DO I PUT UP WITH THIS?! Oh wait... I like this soul.
"You have souls to eat," he hissed. "If you're worried about anyone starving- worry about your son."
"My son? He eats human food and drinks blood," I told him and then shook my head. "He doesn't eat like me."
"But he's half demon," he reminded me, "and you said it yourself... He'll need a soul."
"Yeah, I'll have to trick him to eat one eventually," I muttered then looked the village over. "Look Laurence, I picked a place where they live in misery. They wouldn't suffer anymore. It's also the kind of village where it would make sense for a mass plague to happen." He hung up on me quickly then. Shit. I called him back quickly. What the hell?! He answered me.
"What?" He asked.
"What are you doing?" I asked him quickly, narrowing my eyes.
"Not what you're doing," he hissed. "Enjoy your village." He hung up on me again. I frowned then dialed him again. What the hell is wrong with him? He answered me again.
"What?"
"Quit hanging up on me," I hissed into the phone.
"Oh yeah?" He asked before hanging up on me again. That. Little. TWERP! I called him again and snarled, getting angry. He answered me, staying silent this time.
"LAURENCE, I'M GOING TO GET YOU! YOU'RE GOING TO REGRET HANGING UP ON ME!" I snarled at him. "You're such a baby!" He hung up on me again. I growled and threw my phone before I looked at Helianthus. "I'll be back," I hissed. "I've got someone to punish."
"Okay," he said calmly. "I'll wait on you." I disappeared into the shadows before I stepped out in Laurence's bedroom, stalking over to his bed in rage as my shadow grew on the wall, darkening the entire room as the lights flickered then sparked before going out completely.
"Laurence," I hissed, snatching him up off the bed. He yelped and widened his eyes.
"C-Calix?" He asked and stated to panic.
"You hung up on me," I hissed then brought my wings close against my back. "You. Are. In. So. Much. Trou-" I heard Toru growl before he leapt up onto Laurence's shoulder and started to glow as he gave me a threatening yip, going to bite me on the nose. I caught him quickly and threw him back onto the bed, listening as he gave a surprised yelp then fell into the floor. Laurence gasped and looked towards Toru.
"Toru! Are you okay?" He asked in concern. I heard him give a whimper before he tried to jump onto the bed but fell again into the floor.
"He's fine," I hissed then looked at Laurence. "Let's see... maybe about ten whips for hanging up on me," I muttered then started to drag him away from the bed. "You're going to regret it!" Laurence growled at me and bit my hand quickly. I yelped then yanked my hand back before I looked at him and let him go. "What's the matter with you anyways- hanging up on me like that," I hissed at him. "You act like you're starved for attention." I softened my gaze then. It is true I have been spending less time with him.... "Is this just from you missing me?" He blushed and looked away from me.
"Of course I miss you..." He pushed his hair away from his face. "But don't you dare hurt Toru like that again." He looked up at me and gave me a stern look.
"He was about to bite me!" I heard Toru give a small whimper as he limped his way over to us, looking up at Laurence as he held his front paw off the floor like it got injured. Laurence scooped him up and kissed the top of his head.
"If you're going to be a jerk still," he glared me down and went back to his bed. I frowned then walked up before the lights came back on and I stole Toru from him, looking at his paw.
"It's just sprained," I told him calmly then looked Toru over. "He's fine. It'll heal rather quickly for him." He laid his ears back as he looked at me then licked his paw. I sat him back down with Laurence then before I ran my hand over his paw, watching as the pain on Toru's face faded. "There, he can't feel it." Laurence rubbed Toru's head before looking me over.
"I'm still mad at you."
"For what?" I asked him and smirked before I looked him over. "Toru is fine~ Isn't that right Toru?" He wagged his tail slightly but kept his ears laid back before he hid his face into Laurence's side.
"Because of your attitude towards me!" He poked me in the chest. "You think you're all big and bad? You can't just come in here and threaten me like that without getting in trouble." I growled at him then.
"You're the one who hung up on me," I reminded him before I grabbed his hand he poked me with.
"Yeah! I'll do it again but it's hard when you're not on the phone with me." I growled at him.
"No you won't," I hissed at him. "If you want my attention that badly, then tell me, and we'll go do something together!" I shoved his hand back at him then.
"Only when I forgive you for trying to eat a whole village." I narrowed my eyes slightly then sat down before I glared at him.
"I'm hanging out with an old friend of mine," I muttered to him. "It's not like we're eating New York. He does far worse things than I have done. He turns his prey into half eaten slaves."
"Oh yeah!? You have friends like that?" He grabbed my shirt and yanked me out of his room before shutting the door in front of my face. I frowned then before I went to go back in.
"LAURENCE!" I hissed. The hell! I heard him lock it quickly. That. Little.... I narrowed my eyes before I used the shadows, reappearing in his room. "Laurence," I hissed. "What the hell is wrong with you?! Quit this! You're being a baby! It's not like I've turned people into half eaten slaves. I devour my souls completely. I've risked a lot just for you- you know?! I did that favor for you of taking your maker into Hell! Do you know just how much trouble I can get in for that?!" Of course the devil still has yet to tell me he knows.... He might not know. Thank demons everywhere if he doesn't know what happened. Laurence turned to face me before sending me a glare.
"I know you've done a bunch for me," he mumbled. I narrowed my eyes then.
"The least you can do... is not hang up on me," I growled to him. He opened the door then and walked out, shutting the door quickly. I could hear him walking away then. I narrowed my eyes then went after him quickly, grabbing him as I caught up. "Laurence, knock it off," I muttered then pulled him into my arms. "Does the people getting eaten in Africa bother you that much?" I asked him then ran my fingers through his hair. He leaned his head into my chest then.
"I was wanting to protect those humans..... You have plenty to eat," he mumbled. I nodded then gently kissed the top of his head.
"Alright Laurence... we won't eat them," I whispered to him to calm him down, playing with his hair. "I am hungry though.... You might have to eat one of my contracts for me again."
"Really?" He asked and whined. "Okay... but only since you're hungry and it's your contract."
"Laurence, you can't starve me," I told him and sighed. "I have to eat souls, or else I'll get weak and starve, and I'll become unmanageable. I'll lash out at anyone and take anyone's soul to fix it when that happens. It's better that a few die instead of an entire family."
"Okay," he whispered and nodded.
"You okay?" I asked him and tilted his head to make him look up at me. "Would you like to come hang out in Mexico with me while I visit my friend? We could get drinks later... and listen to their music. Tacos sound good?"
"I want tacos," he told me quickly and gave a smile. "Okay, I want to come." I laughed then took us back to the African village.
"Helianthus~ We're going back to Mexico," I told him and gave him a small smirk. "We can play with your servants some instead of eat the village."
"What a bore," Helianthus complained before disappearing. I groaned then teleported us back to his hotel.
"Helianthus~! Would you rather go mess with demons in Hell?!" I called out. "We could go kick some lesser demon ass!" He walked up to me and shushed me.
"Of course not. I'm just upset. We can't have a fun time together doing our first plan." I felt Laurence fall down beside me and groan out in pain before growing silence as he passed out. "Oh, it's daytime by the way~ Incase you forgot. You better get him in a shadow." I widened my eyes and then quickly picked him up into my arms, enveloping us in my wings to hide him in the darkness. Forgot about the windows.... I looked him over in the darkness of my wings then bit my bottom lip.
"Laurence, are you okay?" I asked quickly, rubbing his cheek. "Come on~ Wake up." He groaned and looked towards me tiredly.
"It burns," he mumbled. "It's so hot and I'm so tired," he whispered.
"Maria, set up a dark room for my friends," Helianthus ordered.
"Yes sir," Maria said quickly and walked away. I nodded.
"Yeah, it's hot," I whispered to him. "You're safe though. I've got you~" Thank hell for wings. I heard Maria come back after a few minutes.
"Right this way," she told us. "I had the windows closed for them." I felt Helianthus guide us into the room before a door shut.
"It's safe," he told us. Laurence rubbed at his eyes and started to stand on his own. I removed my wings from around him then closed them against my back, watching him closely before I led him over to a chair for him to sit down.
"Is this better?" I asked him softly then rubbed his cheek. Thank goodness he didn't burst into flames. "Want me to get you some blood? I can get you some blood."
"Yeah, please!" He begged me and groaned as he grabbed at his chest.
"So~ Is this the soul you was telling me about?" Helianthus asked. I looked back at him and nodded.
"Yes, this is that soul I was telling you about that I had a contract with. He has my protection," I purred to him. "He was turned into a vampire after I rescued him from the asylum. He's sweet sometimes though." I got to my feet and held my hand out, watching as a glass of blood appeared in my hand and I gave it to him. "Here Laurence, drink this~" I watched him then looked back at Helianthus. "He has a pet lover too~" Laurence took a sip of the blood before he started to chug it down.
"I can smell he has bad nightmares~ Terrible memories from his past~ and he's taken a strong liking to you Calix." Helianthus told me. Laurence finished the glass off before sitting it down on the floor next to him.
"I can see that you're not a contract demon- but you feed off memories from your guests here and when you're finished taking them... you either eat them completely or you reform them into a slave."
"They're not slaves- not really. They're just my companions to keep me company and to make this place seem more friendly to guests. They all enjoy it here."
"That's because they don't know anywhere else but here. You took their memories from them." Laurence froze up suddenly like he was having a vision before he looked towards the door- Daniel was standing in the door way. He had taken his shower and was in a half- dressed uniform the other's were wearing that served here. He was missing a bow-tie, name tag, and shoes. Now that his hair wasn't so dirty, I could tell it was an ash blonde and his eyes were a pretty gray to go with it. His skin was a bit tan- from living in Mexico for so long. He backed up quickly before he took off running.
"Dinner time," Helianthus purred out before starting for the door. "I can't believe you spoiled the evening! Now I'll have to feast on him more than I planned to and early." Laurence got to his feet quickly.
"You can't!" Laurence shouted and started to run after him but stopped right before sunlight could touch him. "No!" He yelled as Helianthus paid him no attention and continued following his meal. I could hear Daniel rushing out of the hotel's entrance but the doors didn't shut... I could hear something getting dragged back inside and Daniel screamed. Laurence backed away from the light and rushed to my side, burying his face against my chest. The screaming fell silent after a few seconds. Helianthus carried in Daniel's sleeping body and placed him down on a couch nearby before he smirked and changed his skin tone to be a pretty pale color. He moved Daniel's head up as he sat down and placed his head in his lap. He started to run his fingers through his knife-cut hair before looking my way.
"What's the matter Laurence? Think I was going to devour him completely?" He asked and chuckled. Laurence sent him a sharp glare. I purred softly and kissed Laurence's head.
"It's alright. Daniel is still alive," I whispered to him. "You can't deny a demon their dinner when they need it. It causes bigger problems than that." I pulled him down into my lap as I sat down and kissed his cheek before I hugged him and purred. "Don't worry. You'll never end up like Daniel or any of these other humans here. You've caught my attention more than food."
"Yeah... but... I don't feel right letting him do this," he mumbled.
"Well, you don't live here, and he's not your demon," I reminded him. "You don't have any control over him, so you can't tell him not to do anything he wishes to do...."
"I know," he sighed out and glared down Helianthus. I ran my fingers through his hair then.
"You know what though~ You have me as your little demon," I teased him and smirked. "Isn't that cool? You've got a Kitsune and a demon."
"Yeah..." He gave me a smile as he looked me over. "It's pretty cool." I chuckled then ran my fingers down his spine before I pulled him closer and gave a small smirk.
"You're very... very lucky to have my interest," I whispered to him and smirked.
"I know," he told me and hugged me. "I'm very lucky to have a cool demon as a friend."
"Uh huh, one that isn't eating you," I purred to him then picked him up and carried him over to the couch across from Daniel and Helianthus, placing him down on it. "Here, the sun is out. Why don't you get some sleep Laurence?" I started to tuck him in and smirked as I buried him in the blankets set up in the coffee table. Maybe I'll be able to have some fun with Helianthus~! Laurence gave me a tired look and nodded in agreement.
"Okay," he told me and reached out for my hand. I grabbed his hand then and gave it a squeeze.
"Are you going to be okay in here?" I asked him worriedly, getting nervous about leaving him alone. After all, he's in a strange place... with another demon. Maybe this isn't such a good idea. I held his hand tightly then.
"I don't know," he admitted. "But I don't want to sleep without you by my side." I widened my eyes then.
"W-what?" I asked him and blushed then. Did he really just ask me to sleep by him?
"Uh-huh," he whispered tiredly. He sort of looked like he was fighting against his instincts to sleep. I bit my bottom lip before I nodded then got down on the couch with him and pulled him into my arms and on top of me as I cradled him. Damn it, he's turning me into a wuss. I just can't say no to him much anymore.... He looked at me before purring and closed his eyes. "Thanks Calix," he mumbled. I heard my phone going off in my pocket before I groaned and pulled it out, answering it.
"Hello-"
"WHERE'S LAURENCE?!" Toru growled into the phone. "You better not be hurting him!"
"I'm trying to sleep," Laurence mumbled.
"Laurie~!" I heard Toru purr quickly, hearing his voice. I shook my head then.
"Tell him to go lay down or something. He's yours," I told Laurence then handed him the phone.
"Toru.... I'm trying to sleep.... I'll be back later..." Laurence trailed off as the phone fell. He curled up to me quickly. I could hear Toru give a sharp whine then. I hung up on him then ran my fingers through his hair.
"Would you like me to take you to him instead? It's night there," I whispered in his ear then. He gripped my shirt.
"I'm too tired," he mumbled. I chuckled then. Awww~ I took a picture of the two of us then and sent it to Emile.
Me: Look what curled up on me ;)
Laurence's muscles came loose- finally giving in to his nature and fell asleep on me.
Emile: Is he sick or something?
Me: It's day here in Mexico, and he's passing out on me is all. I think it's rather adorable... even if I feel a little bit like a wuss cuddling with him in front of Helianthus.
Emile: Nah, he'd just be jealous he doesn't have a little Laurence like that.
Me: He's got someone named Daniel he's been feeding off of. I suggested he turn him into a kind of lover or something since how he says he likes him the best out of his humans.... I don't know. Most contract demons don't get attached to their contracts.... Most demons don't try to get a grim reaper for a mate but I did. I guess I'm just a strange demon.
Emile: You're absolutely fine the way you are. Don't think you're not. You might even be better.
Me: Yeah, I have a beautiful mate~ Btw, I was wondering if you'd like to talk to Sophie about making you a legal guardian of Malakai. We'd all three be his parents~
Emile: You're not even a legal guardian.
Me: I'm his father. I don't need to be a legal guardian. He's one half me! I have my rights to him.
Emile: Your name isn't even on the birth certificate- how much you want to bet?
I frowned then. I didn't think about that. I pulled up Sophie's number then.
Me: My name is on the birth certificate, right?
Sophie: You're hilarious. I didn't put a name on the father's side. I do that for all my children. That's why they have my last name.
Me: Sophie. I better be a legal guardian- recognizable as his father!
Sophie: Only genetically.
Me: I'm coming for my boy soon. He needs father time. Besides, I need to feed him a soul somehow to make sure he won't starve his demonic side.
Sophie: You want father-son time?
Me: Yeah, of course I want father son time with him. He's my son.
Sophie: You'll have to make time for him before he gets married.
Me: Yeah, of course. I'll come get him to stay with me after tonight. I'm busy giving Laurence attention and hanging out with Helianthus.
Sophie: Fine. He'll be happy to see you.
Me: Make me and Emile legal guardians too.
Sophie: Absolutely not. Malakai is my son. Not yours. I raised him.
Me: I helped create him. I'm here now to stay. I deserve to become a legal guardian.
Sophie: Fine.... I'll think about it.... but he's getting married so it doesn't matter anyways.
Me: Of course it matters~
I laughed then put my phone in my pocket before I looked towards Laurence then gave him a small squeeze before I smirked. "Helianthus, I'm taking Laurence home. I'll be back soon."
"Sure, I'll be around." Helianthus gave me a smile as he watched me curiously. I looked at him then smirked.
"Maybe we can sneak down into Hell and go enjoy a bar?" I suggested to him as I sat up with Laurence in my arms.
"Maybe," he purred out. "If you want to."
"We could go watch a death match~" I purred to him and smirked before I took Laurence home, laying him down in his bed. Toru rushed up onto his chest quickly in his fox form and laid down on him, wagging his tail in excitement. Laurence opened his eyes slowly and looked around curiously.
"Toru?" He asked. Toru yipped at him then started to lick his cheek as he wagged his tail and laid his ears back.
"Laurie~ Laurie~!" He called out and then licked Laurence's neck. "I love you so much! I missed you~! It was so lonely in here by myself!"
"I wasn't away that long," Laurence teased softly before rubbing his head. Toru started to calm down and leaned his head against Laurence's hand and rubbed his head against it before he yipped happily. He licked the inside of Laurence's wrist before he turned human and leaned in, kissing Laurence. I laughed and shook my head before I disappeared into the shadows to leave the two of them alone and went back to Mexico, appearing in front of Helianthus.
"Heliaaaaanthuuuus~" I purred then sat down in his lap, moving Daniel out of the way. He looked towards Daniel as he fell off the couch.
"Calix," Helianthus warned. "That's my dinner."
"Oh, he's fine~" I told him then smirked before I kicked my stilettos up onto the side of the couch, sitting sideways on him. "I want to do something fun~ Show me a good time," I told him and smirked.
"Fun? You're lame now, Calix. I couldn't even get you to eat a village with me. We'll have to do something baby proofed obviously." I frowned. Baby proofed?
"What the hell?" I hissed. "Baby proofed? I'm not a baby!"
"Really? Prove it." I frowned then. How should I prove it to him? I can't exactly... do something that will make Emile, Laurence, or Malakai angry with me.
"How would you like me to prove it?" I purred to him then and smirked. I can do what he throws at me.... I'm Calix, the Insanity Demon~
"Oh yeah? Let me think...." He smirked as he looked me over. "Let's ruin a human's life."
"A human's life?" I asked then smirked. Oh man, that sounds fun. "Alright~ Let's go then." I wrapped my arms around his neck then and gave him a dominant growl. "We'll make that human wish they had never been born~!" He laughed before disappearing with me... Enjoying our time as demons together- ruining a human's life.
