Page 36 of Summoning Sex Demons

Mikayla returned a moment later and slammed the door. “Have fun!”

I arched my brow and pushed up to my feet, immediately putting out the sage because it was going to put me in a goddamn coughing fit. Mikayla really had put on a whole production, hadn’t she? Sage. Crystals. And a damn Ouija board.

After opening my window so the smoke would clear out of the room, I picked up the crystals that I’d kept stepping on with my bare feet and the popcorn. A cold breeze drifted into the room, and I shivered.

All I imagined was Acaros slipping through the open window, seizing my hips from behind, and having his way with me theway he had last night, and the night before, and the night before that.

But when I turned around, nobody was there. Only the curtains blowing into the room.

Maybe it didn’t work this time.

So, I peeled off today’s clothes and slipped into bed. Another crash of thunder rolled through the room, followed by lightning. And if I’d learnedanythingin science, lightning usually came first, didn’t it?

Lightning flashed again, and suddenly, a figure appeared in front of the window, the moonlight eclipsed by his body.

“Iza,” he said, voice floating through the air, deep but … different than Acaros’s.

He stepped out of the light.

My eyes widened as I stared at Professor Laufer in front of me.

“What are you doing here?” I whispered, pulling the blankets to my chin.

“You summoned me.”

“I—I … we …fuck.”

A low chuckle escaped his mouth, and he stalked toward me until he reached the baseboard of my bed. He placed his hands on it, his veins prominent under the dim moonlight. “We won’t be doing that tonight, Iza.”

My mouth dropped open. “B-but you’re … are you really a sex demon?”

“An incubus?” he asked. “Yes.”

“Oh God,” I muttered, running a hand through my hair. “I fucked up.”

“By summoning demons after you’ve already been claimed by one? Yes, you have.”

“You know?” I whispered.

“About Acaros? Yes. And he’s fucking crazy about you.”

My chest tightened, and guilt rushed through my body at the thought of betraying a man I barely knew. We had met only a couple of days ago, and I was so, so jealous of whoever that girl was who had been at his house this morning. For all I knew, it could’ve been his sister!

I sat up taller in my bed and drew my knees to my chest. “He is?”

“He’s been looking for you all night. There are demons after you.Followingyou because of your relationship with him.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

After scurrying out of the bed, I tugged on a pair of pants and ran a hand through my hair a couple of times to make it less of a mess. “Where is he?” I asked, grabbing my purse on my nightstand.

Before I could make it to the door, he grabbed my arm. “You’re not going to find him.”

“But—”

“If he knew that I was over here and let you leave in the middle of the night, neither of us would like the consequences.” Professor Laufer released my arm and nudged me toward the bed. “He will find you tomorrow, but you need to rest because when he finds out that other demons have been summoned here tonight, you’re going to get it.”
