Demonic Spell (18+)

Recipe 22

“What are you doing here?!” I asked exasperatedly when I recognized the distinct feature of the figure behind the smoke. I then walk a distance away from the bed as to not to draw attention on its occupant.

There is only one demon who I know that sports a ridiculously multi-colored hair and I could not help but groan out loud. He is the last creature that I want to see right now.

“My.. my.. cousin. The night is still young and yet you’re grouchy as Charon.” A lilting voice rang out and from behind the screen of smoke, a figure bounced out towards where I stand.

“Another hundred years from now and you’re surely be friends with him, rowing across the river of Styx and Acheron making each other miserable when you continue being so grouchy.”

I let out a low growl when he begins to tug on my hair while jumping around like a zealous puppy, his rainbow-like hair whips back and forth.

I slightly bared my fangs when he suddenly stopped moving around and I smell curiousness emitting from him as he slowly run his blood-red nails in my arm that bears the Binding mark.

He arched his perfectly formed eyebrow while giving me this indescribable smirk that seems to say.

I know your secret. This annoys me so much that I wrenched my arm away from him.

“You know what, dear Cousin. I was lounging happily in the hot pits of hell, entertaining my followers when I suddenly felt that some crazy fellow opened the depth of hell and release Black fire in the mortal realm.” The black pupils of his incredibly golden eyes dilate as I stare back at him, calm and emotionless. He again smirked at my direction, circling me like the way a wolf might stalk its prey and like wolf he is dangerous.

“I wonder if you know who this crazy fellow is and the reason why Black fire was unleashed in this forbidden place.”

A flash of interest appear on his eyes when the girl twist and stir under the covers. I know it won’t take long for him to smell her blood and connect the events that had transpired in this isolated place.

“Shut up, Fuxal! You know well enough that it is I, who used Black fire.” I said as I annoyingly push him away from the bed, earning a warning growl in return but I just steadfastly position myself between her and my unpredictable cousin.

“Wow! The great demon, Thallan got himself bonded with a human.” I felt a whish of wind followed by…

My head immediately snap towards where the girl sleeps and found my cousin lounging carelessly beside her, fondling the Binding mark in her pale arm.

Damn it! He stopped the time on me!

“I.Told.You.Not.To.Use.That.On.Me.” I punctuated the words on him, annoyed that I fall to his trickery and let my guard down that he even managed to use his ability to stop Time on me.

“What do you..” I didn’t have a chance to finish what I am saying when I felt a hard slap at the back of my head.

What the heck?

One moment I was giving that idiotic cousin of mine a deathly glare that would freeze hell over and the next thing I knew he was glaring behind me after giving me a hard slap on the head.

Annoyed, I tried to swipe him out with my outstretched hand but as always having the ability to momentarily stop time gives him a sneaky advantage as he dodged my hand.

I growled in frustration when he again slaps me on the back of my head.

“Stop it! Fuxal!” Annoyed by his continues assault I bared my fangs on him, a warning gesture that I'm a pissed off demon and he finally stops his instantaneous movement.
