He leaned back. "Wait, what?"

That was when the door to the apartment opened, Onyx's eyes flashed red, and he smiled. "Wave four. Eston. Happy birthday to me."

Chapter 24

Wynn

"Stay here," Onyx told me. "Osian, let's go." A maniacal grin spread across his face.

A smirk touched Osian's lips. He crossed the room to Onyx's side and pointed for me to stay.

I held up my hands. "Fine."

Then they were gone. I heard a struggle and shouting from the living room.

Onyx's voice came through loud and clear. "Did we need to leave the living room door unlocked? Is that all we should've done to lure you in? How'd you like those pictures of me and Wynn? Beautiful couple, aren't we?"

Eston hissed, "I know you're a demon. I won't let you trick Wynn. I'll kill you and make sure she knows all about you and how she's sinned before she begs me to take her sins away. I've decided to make her a slave so she can earn her penance before she dies."

Those words made me want to throw up. How deluded was this guy?

Onyx laughed. "I love how holy you've become without a soul. I've got news for you, buddy. 1) Wynn knows I'm a demon. She still likes me better than you. I may be psycho but at least I'm not crazy. 2) You're damned without a soul. No matter what." He paused. "Is that a cross? Do you think that's going to save you? Is that why you're so confident? News flash: it won’t save you. My friend and I here aren't vampires." Onyx laughed darkly. "You're going to wish we were, though."

The demons appeared in my kitchen doorway, holding a struggling Eston suspended between them, each with a grip on a shoulder. Onyx still wore his birthday hat.

"Wynn, anything to say to Eston?" Onyx asked. "He's not getting away again, so this is really goodbye."

Eston looked disheveled and defeated, suspended between Onyx and Osian, feet not touching the floor. A cross necklace hung helplessly around his neck.

My gaze found Eston's. "Fuck you. I'll never be your slave. I hope my demon family tears you limb from limb."

Onyx looked at Osian, who nodded at him. Onyx looked back to me. "We can do that."

I smiled at him. "Great. Onyx, I'll beg for forgiveness on your cock later. Osian, I'll cook, clean, whatever you want."

Osian smiled, and Onyx grinned. His face turned to Eston and whispered loudly in his ear. "Say goodbye."

Eston's eyes widened in panic. "Wynn—"

They disappeared.

Unlike last time, I didn't feel any shock or trauma about it, maybe because Eston hadn't touched me. I hoped Eston got what was coming. Mainly though, I wanted Onyx back.

Almost as though I conjured him, Onyx appeared in front of me, still wearing his happy birthday hat. His hands reached up to frame my face. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I sucked his thumb into my mouth. "Hurry and come back to me. I have another birthday present for you when we're alone."

Desire flared in his eyes. "Don't worry. I'll be back soon." He kissed me and smirked then stepped back and disappeared.

I went into the living room and turned on a random Netflix show. I cranked the volume up so I wouldn't have to listen to any stray noises. I fell asleep watching the show.

Onyx woke me later. I found myself naked in my bed, sprawled like a starfish.

"Ony—"

His tail whipped to my lips in a shhing movement from where he stood naked beside the bed. His cock stood tall and proud. Somewhere along the way, he'd lost his birthday hat. He had something in his hand but I couldn't tell what it was.

"Let's play a game. Let's see who can be quietest while we fuck. Winner gets a free meal or gets to be a free meal — winner's choice."
