that explains everything.
“You’re a succubus?” Levi asks and I go rigid against him.
“Correct, Angel.” She winks at him and I clench my fists. Of course she’s a fucking succubus. I’m really starting to hate this fucking realm.
“How, exactly, do you feed?” I ask her, trying to remain calm.
“I fuck and feed,” she purrs, her delight in her tone. “Any one of you will do, but all of you would be better.”
I clench my fists and she laughs. “Don’t make your decision now. Take the night to rest, I’ll have Terran set you up in one of the private residence quarters above the club. Let me know your decision tomorrow.”
Her eyes glitter as she says the words, and presses a button on the console on her desk. Seconds later, the woman in white, Terran I assume, opens the door by Roman.
“Set them up upstairs, get them anything they need,” Scarlett tells her and she nods.
“If you’ll follow me,” Terran says, and opens the door wider for us all.
“I’ll see you in the morning,” Scarlett purrs, running a hand down her chest. I roll my eyes at her and stand, Levi and Creek rise with me.
Kain joins us and we follow Terran, Roman bringing up the rear as we follow her and walk back across the entire club, towards the way we entered. We all remain silent as we take in the sights around us. Apparently while we were having our little meeting with Scarlett, things ramped up in here. The room is essentially one giant orgy. I guess Scarlett is getting her fill tonight.
Terran leads us outside of the club, which it turns out is just the bottom floor of a skyscraper and takes us to an alley beside it, where a staircase leads up to a metal door. We continue to follow her in silence and she places her palm flat on the door, unlocking it before pushing it open revealing an elevator.
“If you’ll please enter,” she says to us and I look to the guys who look as uneasy as I feel, but we climb in regardless. She presses the top button and smiles as she inserts a black card into the slot next to it. “Enjoy your evening.”
She steps back and the doors close, her grinning face the last thing we see before shooting upwards in the lift.
Fucking Demons.
It’s less than a minute before the elevator stops and the doors open with a ding. I grab the black card in the slot as I take in the view before us. The doors open directly into the apartment, a bright white space that’s bigger than I expected. Creek and the guys head out into the apartment first, and I catch up, realizing they’re making sure the space is empty.
Once they all reconvene in the living room, I flop down onto the sofa that faces the giant wall of glass in the room.
“That’s a hell of a view,” Roman says with a smirk and I can’t help but laugh at him.
“So punny,” Creek chuckles as they all sit down around the room with me.
“So, obviously we’re not fucking that crazy bitch,” Kain says, undoing his suit jacket. “So what is the plan?”
“I have no idea. I think we need to sleep, and work on it after we’ve rested,” I tell him, feeling my eyes droop already.
“I feel like I slept through most of the day, I’m not even remotely tired,” Roman says. “But you should sleep princess.”
“I’m not sleeping if you guys aren’t,” I shrug. “We’ll just work this out now.”
“No, you need to sleep,” Levi says, sounding firmer than I’ve heard him in a while. “I’ve no doubt you downplayed everything that happened while we were in that fucking trance of Luna’s. You need to rest otherwise you’ll burn yourself out, Remy.”
I look over to him and I know he’s right. I did downplay it. My ribs still fucking hurt, so does my face, but I’m healing, even if it is slower than usual. I guess that’s part of the Shadow Realm’s awesomeness too.
“Fine, but I’ll just sleep on the sofa here while you guys plot away.” I shrug and lean forward to undo my boots.
“Why would you do that when there is a giant bath tub in the bathroom, and an even bigger bed in the room back there?” Kain says softly. “Mon amour, you’ve looked after us all day. Let us take care of you now. Let us carry some of the weight from all of this
