BOOK 2: INCUMBUS BARGAIN GONE WRONG
CHAPTER THREE
Scar POV
"Jason, we'll both be late if you don't get your ass in the bathroom," I said for the hundredth time that hour as I added the finishing touches to my makeup. We were already late as it is, hopefully we'd still make the party.
"s**t. We're one hour late already." Jason's flustered voice came from his gaming chair. He rushed out of it, dropping his Xbox controller, headset and everything on him before bolting to the bathroom. I couldn't help my eye roll at his dramatic rush. His system was still on, so I went over to help him shut it down properly when a message popped up on his screen.
"Wednesday is too far, lie to that b***h and come eat this clean shaven p***y for breakfast tomorrow."
I froze before clicking on the image attachment. I wasn't expecting to see my boss Bianca's face attached to a bare glistening p***y staring right at me.
Jason was still in the bathroom and would probably complain about boundaries and privacy before denying everything. I unlocked his phone and sent the picture to myself alongside other explicit images she'd shared in their chats. I saved everything on my phone and cleared the chat history before dropping his phone like nothing happened.
A few minutes later, he stepped out of his closet looking handsome and perfect, like he didn't put the C in cheater. I mirrored his smile, but at the last minute as we got to his car I couldn't keep up the pretense.
"Babe, I think you should go alone. I need to attend to something."
"Something? We're late, honey."
"Maybe you should go alone." I didn't look back as I took out my car key, opened the door and drove off to Lisa's house. She's my best friend and the only one with enough wisdom to advise me in this situation before I took my anger out on Jason.
"What's up, b***h?" she slurred, opening the door and almost falling over.
"Girl, it's not even noon and you're already drunk."
"Not drunk, just… free will is a thing, you know?" She belched loudly. "You have this strange look on your face. Who do I need to kill?"
I almost smiled. Almost.
"Jason's cheating on me with Bianca."
Her eyes widened comically before she shook her head like she was trying to clear the fog. "Bianca as in your bitchy boss?"
"Exactly," I replied dryly.
"Alright, death it is then. We kill Jason and Bianca—"
"I'll handle Bianca," I said, already creating fake anonymous accounts while waiting for my bestie to get her s**t together. "What do you mean death for Jason? I'm not going behind bars for his average dick."
"Well, I found this old spell book in my grandma's stuff. We can summon a demon to go kill him
in his sleep or something. Trust me, I have witchcraft in my blood."
"Alright. But first let me post her pictures and tag her across all platforms, especially LinkedIn. Then we can focus on the lying ass lizard."
A few minutes later, I was gathering ingredients following Lisa's drunken instructions. She was too wasted to deal with this herself, but I'd opened the summoning book and just like she said, the details were easy to follow. All I needed to do was set the stage.
"You don't have seven black candles," I said after several minutes of going through her stuff.
"You can mix it with any other color available, maybe lavender," she slurred.
I mixed black, lavender and one pink glittery candle because it smelled nice.
"What about the circle?"
"Just make the dots connect, it can be any shape."
The task was easier than I thought. I considered switching careers to witchcraft as I drew a heart-shaped diagram on the floor.
"Light the candles and sprinkle the ash or whatever powdery stuff you find around three times."
I did exactly that, then sat down looking proudly at my handiwork and Bianca's nudes going viral on i********:. Such a cute moment.
I noticed another presence in the room before I actually saw him standing in the middle of the now glowing circle of candles.
"Um, thank you for coming. I'm just—"
"This is the worst summoning I've seen in two centuries. What in Hades were you trying to summon?"
Lisa was already snoring, leaving me alone with this rude demon.
"You. I was trying to summon you. I need you to kill my cheating piece of s**t boyfriend," I said with fake confidence. Heat rushed between my legs like someone had flipped a switch. My c**t throbbed hard, and I pressed my thighs together without thinking. I hated how wet I already was and somehow his presence was making me feel weird, like I needed to touch myself and do it as soon as possible.
"I'm not a vengeance demon, sweetheart. I'm an incubus, and we do s*x, not suffering."
"Then seduce him, make him fall in love with and break his f*****g heart!" I half screamed in frustration.
"I don't do men, and that's not how this works. You—"
"Lisa!" I shook my friend awake and thankfully she seemed to grasp the situation.
"Wrong f*****g demon," she slurred, then opened one of her smaller containers and grabbed a fistful of herbs.
"What are you doing?" the demon and I asked at the same time.
Lisa dumped the herbs between the glowing candles and immediately runes and blinding light filled the room along with thick choking smoke, covering the creature from earlier.
"Stop it, something's wrong!" I screamed in panic. Before I could walk away, a hand shot out of the smoke and gripped my wrist so tightly there was no way to escape.
When I looked up again, the atmosphere had cleared but the hand remained on mine. I followed the grip up from a golden toned, fit and muscular chest to the most gorgeous, hot and handsome face I'd ever seen, staring at me with silver eyes that were definitely not human.
"Hello, my love."
My screams died in my throat. It came out as a choked gasp instead.
