She tried by herself to change to a human form. There was the sound of bone cracking then she was on the floor, slowly rising. She was naked in her human form. Still, she was too beautiful to look at, And I knew at that point that not even an old mythical creature could reject her.
But something strange happened. The light from the time Arianell changed herself to human form, wasn't dim yet, it was still shining too bright and Daniel had to cover his eyes. The light blinded his eyes, though it was usual for me because I produced light when I changed back and forth from werewolf to human or vice versa.
But my light wouldn't last that long, I guessed it was the Empath's light manifested from her body. The light that usually stayed only in her mind now appeared as a real light. It was blinding Daniel's eyes, the creature of the night. It might be an angelic light that attacked the night creature.
"Aww, my eyes!" Daniel still covered his eyes and he was begging for Arianell to stop to light the blinding sight, "Please! It's too bright! I can't see! Please, my lady! Make it go away! I'm blind!"
Arianell didn't try to dim her light but she threatened the poor creature while I was trying to stand on my four furry legs but I still couldn't, so I was only sitting on the floor regaining the power that was about to be fully recovered.
"As long as you promise me to leave Daniel's body. Aren't you get tired, o mighty incubus? Aren't you feel full after you sucked me dry yesterday? Don't you think you've been in that body for far too long? I will turn off my light only if you promise me to leave Daniel's body. Once in a while demons will be wise, right? Now it's time to be!"
Now, I finally could stand on my four feet. But I couldn't take the risk of attacking Daniel again, not if finally, the incubus would leave Daniel's body. It was possible that I would kill Daniel's human form if the incubus suddenly left, so I waited.
"You're right. I am tired and feel full. Your juice was so different, I felt enlightened. That's why your light is so blinding. Now I can die happy... for a while ... I might not feel hungry for another thousand years. I'll leave now. Be careful of a centaur that appears after I leave Daniel's body."
HUH ?!
Both Arianell and I felt confused then we saw the incubus in his demon form with black horns and black wings transparently left Daniel's body. Then there was a light blinding our eyes. Slowly the light dimmed and there was a form of a centaur from the place Daniel stood.
He was so graceful in a centaur form. Arianell stepped back and I could finally stand on my feet while I was still alert in case the centaur attacked though I didn't see any form of weapon he carried.
He was just standing there with his bald head and half-horse body with his bare hands.
"Who had released me from that succubus?" the centaur finally spoke.
[Anne! Answer him! I dunno if he could read my telepathic mind.]
"I could hear your mind, a young werewolf," said the centaur.
Thank Moon Goddess!
"And this beautiful woman in her human form is your Luna? Did the succubus hurt her?" asked the centaur.
We were confused, Arianell's expression could be seen clearly that she had too many in her mind. This site was a lot to process.
[We didn't see any succubus but an incubus left your body. And where's Daniel? Are you Daniel? and how do you know that she's my Luna?]
"I'm not Daniel, young werewolf, later when I leave, you will see Daniel. She has your scent. I can smell your mark on her, young werewolf. Succubus and incubus, they're interchangeable. Succubus is the female form, and incubus is the male form. They both can be from one source of Djin. A supernatural that can possess anyone including me, the mythical centaur."
"And who are you?" Arianell finally gained her composure and asked.
"Ah ... forgive my being rude. I'm Centaur Abas and will be forever in your debt for releasing me from that succubus."
{Succubus or incubus? We saw only incubus.]
"She was a succubus, then ..."
[Sorry for interrupting, but I remember now, you're Centaur Abas from the Centauromacy, a battle with the Lapith, and you fled. I don't know that you were still alive until today. It has been around 4000 years then since that time. How do you even survive?]
"Well done with your history lesson, Mek" Arianell grinned. I wasn't proud of myself because there was a lot to explain by the centaur.
"I didn't agree with the battle, so after I few arrows I shot, though I missed many times. I was glad, I didn't kill anybody from the Lapith. We were just blinded by the sight of beautiful women and wine that made some of us become animals. We attacked the Lapiths which were supposed to be a peaceful wedding party. So I fled."
[And then what happened? How could you be possessed by the succubus or incubus?]
"In the exile, I missed a female companion, then the succubus came to seduce me. She gave me the pleasure of I could enjoy many women's bodies as long as she could possess me, so I said yes. She turned into an incubus and possessed me. Under his control, I enjoyed many women's bodies."
[Did you know that the incubus killed them in the end?]
"That, my fellow young werewolf, I didn't know. Like I said I was under his control. If I could I'd stop him from doing so."
[Then what's your connection with Daniel? How could you appear from his body and where is he now?]
"It wasn't his fault for being born in the eclipse on the 6th day of December. He was a perfect vessel to be able to contain both a mythical centaur and an incubus. Still, he was in a deep sleep when the incubus took over his body. The children of the eclipse are strong souls with strong bodies. They could contain supernatural beings and just sleep without slipping to death."
"Yeah, Centaur Abas is telling the truth, Akrem. It was the same thing that Daniel told me, that's why I can't read his mind, left alone his body was possessed by the incubus."
I believed in Arianell.
[Then where is Daniel now?]
