To Love A Demon [Demon x Reader]

Chapter 25

It had been almost 2 months since my leg was broken by the heartless demon we all call Corvin, my leg now only in bandages instead of a cast.
Minx and I have been trying to get along for Serens sake and well, for my own sake of not having to deal with the bulshit arguements.

Not much has been happening, I have barely been able to go to the bathroom without Minx standing outside the door, does he not care for privacy.

Resting my leg up on a pillow I slowly flipped through a book I was reading. The book was about a girl who had a forbidden love, a man who cared not for her at first, but yet he still spent every day by her side.

Both runaways from a horrible kingdom.
As I read the pages that were filled with wonder, a familiar hand places itself on the book and takes it from my grasp, ripping me out of my imagination.

I irritatedly looked up, my eyebrow twitching. My eyes slowly ran up the masculine arm attached to the hand and of course it was none other than minx.

"You have been ignoring me this whole time" he glared down at me.

"I was reading.." i faked a smile, making him glare at me more

"And yesterday you were folding the dog" he huffed and glanced over the book before setting it down

"We don't have a dog"

"We have the vampire"

"He isn't a dog"

"He acts like a lost puppy"

I let out a frustrated sigh and leaned my head back "what did you want?" this question made minx's ears perk up (did i forget to mention he has cat ears when not in public?)

"No need to get so antsy, I was just checking up on you, you have been rather on edge lately.." the cat sat next to me, bouncing his leg slightly, a fidget of sorts.

He wasn't wrong, i had been on edge, i hadn't had a nightmare free dream in weeks, it was terrible.

Each dream filled with either gore, entities or corvin, speaking of corvin, he had been visiting me in my dreams here and there, but he didn't always interact with me, sometimes he just sat and watched me, like he was planning something.
God I hoped he wasn't planning anything..
"I'm fine, just yeah.. Nightmares. The usual." i huffed and rubbed my face, i just wanted it all to end.

Minx put a hand on my shoulder, a failed attempt at comfort, but appreciated nonetheless. "Look y/n.. I'm sure we'll find a way to-"

"Stop." i sighed as i looked at him, now sitting up
"I don't want you to try and tell me it's all gonna be okay.. I'm being stalked by a creepy, disgusting, perverted demon minx, it's not gonna get better, not yet at least.."

"Sorry" he removed his hand from me, now running it through his hair with a huff.

"Sorry.. I'm just stressed.." I slumped over, resting my head on his shoulder, this caused him to tense for a moment before moving his arm around me and rubbing my arm.

"Yeah, I know.. Seren should be back tonight or tomorrow, he said he had important business to attend to, he thinks he might know someone who can help.."

"Lovely" i closed my eyes and relaxed, minx's scent helping me do so, was that weird to say??
I find a sort of comfort in his scent, despite him being an asshole most the time.
