The Tale of The Demon Thief

Where it all began

Chapter 1

Past Loco Illinois, 1717

"Fable, I don't feel right what was in that drink?"

"What do you mean love?" Eadlin, don't leave me like this!" You are the love of my life don't die on me."

I tried to stay awake and hold on as i laid there on the floor of my pub, but I felt myself slip away into the darkness.

Present day

I jolted up from a sound sleep. That was a weird dream who is Fable and why did that feel so real. It feels like I knew Fable in real life, but it was just a dream I must get ready to go to my pub.

As I got into my car to drive to my business, I couldn't help but wonder what that dream means. Oh, I'm sorry I haven't even told you who I am.

My name is Eadlin, I'm an average human who owns a pub. I was kicked out of my parents’ house at 18, because I never changed into a wolf and they disowned me. My parents are high in the counsel. My parents are werewolves and usually before you turned 18 you get your wolf.

So, my best friend Fae took me in. She's also part of the supernatural community she's a witch and she's a great one. She's good at looking into the future. She helps me out at my pub we run the show together. I do the hands-on stuff and she does my books and she take care of the people who wants to start fights.

"Hey, hot stuff you finally rolled out of bed! “Sounds like you were having a pretty steamy dream." said Fae.

"It sure was, but it felt so real." I feel like I know the guy from my dreams like we met a long time ago. “Near end he felt so broken inside and I couldn't fix it."

" Girl, it was just a dream just shake it off and come have a cup of coffee I got your favorite."

"You are the best Fae!"

"I know that's why we get along so well."

"So, what was the guy’s name in your dream?"

"Fable."

"What?!"

"His name was Fable he was so sweet, but the weird thing is that it took place in this pub in 1717."

"Eadlin, you never heard of the tale of the demon thief Fable?"

"No, why?"

"Fable, is a demon thief and he almost changed his ways, because he met his one and only and his best friend ended up poisoning her. “She was a pub owner if I'm correct this very pub is where she died."

"What was her name?"

"It's weird her name was Eadlin."

"You don't think he’s, real do you?"

"No, demon thieves are very rare they all went into hiding after 1717 after fable lost control and tried to wipe out the entire demon thief race."

"Wow, really?"

Fae, gave me that would I lie to you look and went to the back to put in our order for the week. Could that story really be real. I've never heard of demon thieves. Ok I need to start getting stuff ready for work tonight.

The night is in full swing. We are going to make a huge profit tonight. I was working behind the counter making drinks and Fae is walking around making sure our customers were safe and no one is fighting.

"Hey, Eadlin I need three more beers."

"Here you go. “How’s the crowd on the floor doing?"

"Fine, you do know we should probably hire some wait staff to make this easier on us."

"Then, we won't split the tips between us."

"Okay, I like my tip money it gives me a reason to keep getting my fancy clothes."

"Haha, that's what I thought Fae."

"Hey, hot stuff you finally rolled out of bed! "Sounds like you were having a pretty steamy dream." said Fae. At the end he felt so broken inside and I couldn't fix it."This very pub is where she died." For work tonight.

"Excuse me, could I please get a shot of whiskey please?"

"I'm so sorry sir coming right up."

As I was handing the customer his whiskey. I looked up and it was him the man from my dreams. I froze and just stared at him in complete and total shock. This can't be real! it must be another dream demon thieves don't exist.

I went back to making drink and serving customers, but my eyes keep going back to the man. I walked back over to him.

"Can I get you another drink Hun?"

"Just one more thanks."

"Coming right up."

I want to ask him his name, but I'm just so afraid he's going to say his name is Fable. I poured his drink and walked it over to him.

"Thank you so much." So, may I ask what's your name?"

" My name is Eadlin."

As soon as I said that he paid for his drinks and just walked out not waiting for his change. That was weird. I shake it off and continued making drinks until finally our night ends and Fae and I are cleaning up when I finally decided to tell her what happened.

" So, Fae this guy came in and he looked like the guy from the dreams I've been having."

"Are you sure it wasn't the lighting, because it can play tricks on your eyes."

As I was handing the customer his whiskey. I looked up and it was him the man from my dreams. I froze and just stared at him in complete and total shock. This can't be real! it has to be another dream; demon thieves don't exist. Eadlin finally decided to tell Fae what happened in the Steamy, Vivid Dream.

"Don't worry about it." He probably forgot to do something and that's why he left in a hurry. "Come on we're done here for the night let's go home." said Fae.

As I laid there in bed my mind was going a mile a minute. Are demon thief’s real? I started to fade to sleep and I had another dream.

"Excuse me, could I get a drink I've been waiting for a while now."

"I'm sorry sir, but I'm very busy and I run this place by myself." What would you like to drink?" said Eadlin.

" I would like a whiskey." said Fable.

"Coming right up."

"Here's your drink if you need anything else let me know."

"Thank you."

"So, what's your name?"

"My name is Eadlin. “What’s yours?"

"Fable."

"Out of all the pubs you can go to why does the demon thief decide to come to my pub?"

"I thought about stealing everything from you to where you have nothing, but for some reason I can't."

"The almighty demon thief can't steal from me and why is that?"

"I don't want your valuables like I usually take from people." I want you."

"You know that's forbidden for a demon hunter to fall for a human like myself."

"I don't care you make me happy."

We were about to kiss when I woke up from my dream. Gosh darn it every time it gets to the climax of everything I wake up.

As, I walk down the stairs to see Fae sitting there eating breakfast and I see she had a plate ready for me.

"How did you sleep hot stuff." said Fae.

"I had another dream about Fable, but this time it was when we first met."

"Have you ever thought about looking into your family history, because I forgot part of the story."

"Oh?' What's that?"

"The demon thief will return when his love has returned, and she'll start having dreams about him and draw him back to where they first met and that was at the pub she owned." said Fae.

"Are you telling me I just let a demon thief out on the town?"

"Don't worry about it. " He probably forgot to do something and that's why he left in a hurry. "Come on we're done here for the night let's go home." said Fae.t the pub she owned." said Fae.

We ate in silence after that, because I really didn't want to talk about this anymore. I have to find out about my family history, but my parents disowned me, because I'm not a wolf. I doubt they would have any information at the library about my family history, because they don't know about the supernatural world.

"I already know what you are thinking. I know someone who could help you out and find out if you are Fables one true love."

"How do you know all of this?"

"I'm a powerful witch. “Plus, my parents have a lot of pull in the community. “Besides you know my family is your family. My parents love you since what your parents did to you."

"I know, but it's just hard. I wish they were here so I can go to them."

"I know, but you have me and it's us against the world!" You are like my sister."

"Come on stop complaining we have work to do before we open the pub for the night." said Fae.

Fae started to drive us to her sources house so we can find out about my family history. It was a pretty long drive over there.

"So, do you think we should not open tonight?" We made a pretty good profit to take one extra day off besides Sunday."

"Probably not a bad idea just in case what we find out."

"Yes, because he always stayed far away from here, because he mourns the loss of his beloved. “to find out about my family history, but my parents disowned me, because I'm not a wolf. I doubt they would have any information at the library about my family history, because they don't know about the supernatural world.
