Chapter 17 – The Maybe’s

LUCIUS.

Title of the document

I left the human realm and sought comfort in my own kingdom after I argued with Patrea.

It took a while before I was able to calm myself, but not after I sucked the life out of two demons that were on my way.

I tried to put my mind in the blanks, but thoughts of her kept running through my head.

In the end, I caved in and opened my hologram to have a glimpse of her, but she was nowhere inside the house, only for me to find her outside, discussing things with people around her, including the man I was dying to crush.

She was not even bothered that I had left. Of course, humans would always be a better option than demons.

I shut the hologram and summoned a she-demon to ease my mind of the witch, even for a while. I shouldn’t be bothered by Patrea ignoring me. I would not run out of females if I wanted to.

“Ugggh…” I grunted as her mouth took in my whole length, but the grunt was not out of pleasure but of annoyance. The warmth that I was expecting didn’t come.

Having my c*ock in Patrea’s mouth ruined every other female for me.

I leaned forward from my chair-lounging position and wrapped my hand around the she-demon’s nape before tilting her head upward, causing her to release my c*ock from her mouth.

I met her eyes, but the gaze from the amber eyes I was searching for was not there.

F*uck.

I took a deep breath and released her neck without taking my eyes off her. I wanted to soak in her features to take the witch off my mind.

The she-demon was pretty with all the black veins printed on her skin. Her horns were not sharp yet, but her tail was long and playing on my back, caressing my neck. It was supposed to awaken my arousal, but it was far from what I was feeling at the moment.

I couldn’t feel as much excitement as I used to.

My chest was heavy.

She smiled wickedly at me before swiping her tongue over her fangs and tipping her head down, opening her mouth wide. But even before she could take my c*ock back into her mouth, I whisked her away and made her disappear from my chamber before I leaned back on the couch and contemplated what to do next.

After a few seconds, I gathered myself up and decided to go to someone who I was sure would be happy to see me.

PATREA.

It had already been more than 24 hours since Lucius left, and I had not heard from him again.

I wanted to call Lucy and ask if he’d been there, but I assumed Lucy would call me if he was. So maybe he went back to Kalmerus.

Now I was left wondering if there was something that he didn’t like about our setup because I thought we were moving forward.

Perhaps he lost interest and was looking for an excuse to leave, and Bernard gave him the best one.

Maybe I disappointed him with the blow job I gave him last night.

Of course, my mouth couldn’t compare to all the she -demons around him, and he probably wanted to f*uck — the real thing.

I knew how s*exual they were, and the only ones that could match him were the she-demons. I would never reach that intensity. I am just me.

And maybe he got tired of waiting. I should have given in. But I was not sure if I could. I thought he was okay with taking it slow.

Maybe he thought I was just making excuses not to fulfill the contract I made with him. So many maybes.

I adjusted the rearview mirror of my car and checked the traffic behind me as I drove my way home from the library.

I had no idea how I was able to function and finish today’s work, but I was grateful that I did. I was almost done with the inventory, and hopefully, by tomorrow I could wrap it up.

Bernard dropped by as he said he would, but I turned him over to my co-worker. I told him I was quite busy. But the truth was that, aside from the many things I had to do, I didn’t want to deal with him. He was a reminder that Lucius had left.

I hurried to finish what I could and left the library as soon as the clock ticked three o’clock. I was hoping Lucius was home.

The house felt empty without him, especially last night.
