“That is good. Now you can go back to being the rock we all need you to be,” I say rolling on my side to curl up next to him. I decide now is not the time to delve into the repercussions of this stronger connection.
“I would be more than happy to reclaim my title.”
Thinking of all that has occurred on this bed to night, I start to get a little worried. “Um. You don’t think what we just did created a mini you inside of me, do you?” I think in this case protection on his part would have hindered what we wanted to accomplish and on my part, there has never been a reason to look into contraception.
“Nah. I took care of all that ahead of time,” a voice that should not be in my bedroom right now claims. I swear I mentioned to him that he should always knock before entering a room I am in. Please tell me he wasn’t here for the whole thing.
“Ben, I don’t think you should be in this room right now,” I say focusing on him sitting in a chair that wasn’t previously a feature in my room.
“Don’t worry; I waited until the show was over before coming to clue you in on some things. I figured you would want to be assured that no babies were created in the making of this new bond. Although, I figure if you wanted anyone’s babies it would be the fangy ones. I guess we still have a little work to do on that front.”
“Do I want to know how you made sure that wouldn’t happen?” I ask. Neither me nor Sebastian seem too worried about him seeing us in our current states, so I haven’t bothered trying to dive under the covers.
“If you remember back when I first told you what the general process would entail, you shared a drink with me,” he begins.
“Yes, I remember the drink that I couldn’t help but toss back.”
“In the mix, other than some of the finest wine Hell has to offer, was a little potion that would bring your vampire nature to the surface. You may have noticed that over the past couple days. With your wolfy bits in hibernation, your vampire baby developer is barren, as it should be, giving you one hundred percent birth control.”
“And just when and how do I get my wolf to reactivate?” I ask not happy that he did this without my knowledge, but at the same time happy at the peace of mind I have because of his actions.
“No worries. It will wear off four days after consumption. I figured by then you would have succumbed to his vampire charms.”
“Well, I guess I should thank you for getting this duo back together,” I say almost causing myself physical pain. I have had to thank the demon too many times these last few days.
“No thanks necessary. Keep up the good work and all that jazz. I have business to attend to, just thought I would stop in for this quick chat,” he says smiling and waving his hands around.
“Oh, before you go, Glenda says she wants to change your deal and to meet her at midnight next Wednesday,” I say remembering my promise to pass the information along.
“Hmm. We will have to see about that. Tootles,” he says vanishing with the new smoke effect he has been trying out.
“I don’t think I will ever get used to that thing,” Sebastian says speaking for the first time since Demon Boy’s arrival.
“I still pray we will never have to,” I say in total agreement. “Well, I guess we better get back on with our lives now that we are bound tightly.”
“Are you sure we have to go so soon?” Sebastian asks rolling me over so I am on my back and he is above me. He leans down and starts another battle with our tongues.
I guess there isn’t anything too pressing I need to get to. After all, we have already done it once, if anyone asks, we can just say the second time was part of the ritual.
THE END
