Page 75 of Dark Souls Academy: The Sacrifice

I chuckled, but it was forced. “Don’t play stupid.” I got up. My eyes darted around, but there was no one else near us. And nothing but the crashing water and sand. Where did our house go?

My heart slammed into my rib cage demanding to be released. I asked again, but they still looked at me like I was crazy. No air would go to my lungs.

“Kain!” I screamed.

“He’s gone, my naughty little Queen.” The voice threatened to give me a heart attack. I snapped in Lucifer’s direction. He was butt ass naked with a huge hard cock pointing at me. “It’s time you come home.”

In a blink, my back was pressed to a cold wall with hot chains restraining me. I thrashed around. The chains bit into my now naked flesh. No.

“Mm, I do like seeing you so beautifully bared for me.” Lucifer sounded so smug like he won, but I wouldn’t stopfighting. I bucked and squirmed for what felt like hours, but the chains wouldn’t give. They sucked my power out of me.

“No, no, no! Get away from me!” I shouted in Lucifer’s face as his cock touched my lower stomach.

“I’ll make it good for you this time.” His words were barely heard over my screams. As he got close to the apex of my thighs, I couldn’t stop the tears from falling down my cheeks.

Right before the piece of shit could connect with me, a shout had my eyes snapping opened. A body slammed into Lucifer and took him down to the ground. Even though it was only a glimpse, I knew it was Trigger. Both of their bodies vanished.

“Trigger!”

The fruit in my stomach soured. What the fuck was happening? The tears still stung my eyes. The hope and love I had been filled with drained out of me like I had sprung a leak. Could anyone ever get to me? Was I Lucifer’s whore, now?

“Never, Poison. You’ll never be his anything.” In a desperate jerk I followed the voice.

“Kain?” I gasped out. He was fucking see-through like a ghost. “Oh fuck. Are you dead?”

He came to me and cupped my face. I cried harder when his warm skin touched mine. I didn’t care he was corporeal.

“I’m not dead.” He took my chains off slowly once I nodded that I understood. “I’m not quite alive either. I’m actually only here because of Piper.”

“Piper? What?”

He nodded, helping me to move away from the wall. When he took off his black jacket and threw it over my shoulders, I couldn’t help but be awed when the mystical fabric became solid against me. Whoa. I gladly slipped my arms in and sniffed the collar to smell his whisky scent.

“She won the Demon Trials as you know. When Lucifer gave her power, she found out she could dreamwalk. Well, notquite, it’s more of a voice then her appearing in the mind like normal dreamwalkers, but she managed to send me to you.” He shrugged and wrapped his arms around me. “I don’t know how it works, but I’m fucking thankful. We need to think about getting a seer of our own because she sounds like she’s helping them immensely.”

I squeezed him tightly. “Anything you want.”

“I could get used to those words.” A smiled stretched but it dropped at the pulling sensation in my stomach. I jerked in Kain’s arms, wincing at the pain. “Poison, just go with the sensation. I’m working on coming back to you.”

I shook my head. “I can’t leave you. I’m not whole unless you’re all there.” Those stupid tears fell down my cheeks again. My heart broke even thinking about not having all my mates.

“They’re working on it, but I promise. No matter what, I’ll make it back to you.” His voice faded in and out which just made me cling to him harder. It was feudal, he slipped from my tight grip. “Don’t cry, mate. I’ll find you again. I promise.”

This was a fucking dream. Oh goddess, was this even real?

“Ivy, I need you to wake up.” Soft hands touched me, but I didn’t want to listen. My dreams were so peaceful. I wanted to take Kain and go back to the beach with all my men. We were so happy. I felt it.

“My Dreamgirl, we need you.”

“You’ve been asleep for two days.”

“The sacrifice is today.”

Everything they said made me want to jump into the ocean and swim away. Being the one who was responsible and in charge sounded like a horrible idea. The tranquility called to me, giving that up would be stupid.

“Please.”

Damn it all to a prison in Hell. Why would they sound so lost like that? I didn’t know who spoke, but I knew that I cared forthem. So, like the dumbass that I was, I let go and gave into the pulling sensation. I seriously was going to regret this.
