Dark Undone (Darkness Trilogy #1)

Chapter 2

"You're coming over right," Belphegor asks through the phone.

"Yeah," I answer as I park my bike, turning it off, "Davian and I should be there in a half hour or so."

"Is Kali with you?" He asks, "Bring him if so I'll let his dad know."

Kali snatches the phone from my hand and says, "Hey Belz, I know you don't like lying to Satan, but he thinks we've been at Via's all day."

"Fine as long as you don't take any of the fucking drugs while your here."

"Nope," Kali answers, "See ya soon."

He hangs up and tosses me my phone.

We walk back to the portal and walk through the club. Kali opens the door and we step through back to Hell. Our walk to the club is silent, besides Kali's texting. He says, "Hey guys I have to stop at Lucifer's Pride."

"Why," Davian asks, his voice hoarse.

"Nyx," Kali and I say in sync. I laugh, softly at his predictability. He glares at me and then turns into the club. I stand outside vaping. Davian standing there awkwardly so I offer my vape. He shakes his head and says, "I'm sorry."

"Don't," I say, purposely not looking at him. My body still hasn't calmed from the sex and the thrill of ride, "I don't regret it. Kali is just protective. Besides, he doesn't understand."

"Whatever he saw in your head wasn't good," He points out, "The way he reacted."

"No," I whisper as I lift my shirt spinning to him, "He saw these."

"Fuck," Davian brushes his hand to them, "I didn't mean to do that. My talons..."

I spin back to face him. I ask, my eyes searching his, "How?"

"How what?" Kali walks out holding two cups. His hair is mussed and he has a satisfied smirk.

"Who got the head?" I ask, taking the drink he offers me. I glance inside the cup to see Hell's Delight. Kali grins as I smirk.

"I'll tell you later," Kali says, his eyes saying: details for details.

We walk to Belphegor's house in silence. A mansion, almost a castle, on the hillside. Davian bursts through the door shouting, "Hey dad! I'm home."

"Hey!" Belphegor shouts from the kitchen. Davian heads that way, but I head up the stairs, Kali follows. I turn into the spare bedroom that I stay in when I'm here. There's artwork on the walls. A deep blue ocean and golden clouds in the sky, just like Heaven used to have from what I can remember. I sigh and flip on the bed.

"Was the sex at least good?" Kali asks, slumping into the chair.

I stretch my wings on the giant bed and say, "I mean I guess. I came, he didn't."

"Ouch," Kali hisses, "Poor guy."

"He wanted sex with me," I state, voice coming out numb, staring at the ceiling, "He got it."

"Eryx," Kali asks, his voice concerned, "It was consensual right?"

"Yeah," I sigh, "It was. It just felt like I was whoring myself so he would get what he wanted and I could be left alone."

"Don't do that again," Kali says, "Shower, you probably feel disgusting. I'll tell them you'll be down in a minute. Drink the shot too."

I grin and hear him leave. Standing up, I head to the bathroom. I run the shower for a second, making sure the water is hot. I strip and step into it. The heat blazes through me as I wash myself. I stand under the water, letting it soak through my hair and run down my face. I desperately wish I could wet my wings. I need the sex completely gone. I rinse my back as carefully as I can. Whoever had this room prior had wings. Wings they loved and needed to stretch.
