My Devil in Disguise

A Guardian And A Departure

(Depression notice Spoiler Alert!: I was balling my eyes out while writing this chapter)

K's POV
"Kay relax I know things look kinda wonky ok I promise it'll go away in just a second I promise baby just hold on"

Damian's expression was disturbingly serious as if he'd never done anything like this before. I put my left hand under Damian's arm and I couldn't feel my right hand, because it hurt so badly previously, and my body had numbed my arm. I wasn't even the one holding my arm up.

The thick slime in my veins was holding most of my body still. Damian finished the chant and tapped on 3 parts of my body my right, foot both my temples simultaneously, and my heart.

My arm was slowly released and slipped down to my side where the black slime slowly poured out and was now a white milky gray. I thought of a dog for some odd reason and sure enough the mass of goo turned into a dog and started acting like one.

My wrist healed perfectly and Damian apologized over and over just one after another and I blushed hard enough to the point where I realized there'd been enough apologizing.

I grabbed Damian's shoulders and pulled him into a hug then slowly tucked my arms under his and he incased me again.

"I just wanted I just wanted you to be-be safe b-because I-I-have t-to leave"

Damian picked me up in his arms and carried me back to the house holding me tighter than ever before. With every tear that landed on me from his face it was another little piece of me that was breaking. Another question added to the pile.

"For every month I spend here I have to spend a week in your time in Hell helping my dad"

It'd felt like Id just met him but in reality with everything he'd done for me it'd been a whole 29 days. Damian sat me on the couch ever so gently and I stood right back up.

"Im sorry you have to go and as much as I don't want you to" I sniffled wiping away the forming tears. "I know you have to go do your job"

I wrapped my arms around him for what would be the last time in 4 weeks my time. I placed my head on his chest and he kissed my head ever so delicately as if I'd fall into a pile dust.

"But hey you new dog here can do some pretty cool stuff" Damian walked into the other room and said "now think of me, think of me as if I were here with you"

Maxilotarine, the name I gave him odd as it is, or Max as In the dog Id got. He quickly shifted into what looked like Damian I heard his voice come from the blob and he wrapped me in a hug, a cold hug with no heartbeat.

"Im already gone beautiful and you couldn't even tell the difference till now. He will protect you I promise and even when Im busy he knows exactly how I act." Damian looked over his shoulder and looked back and said.

"I have to go and I-I-I love you Kadence"

I put my hand on his and as the blob turned back to a dog the tears well was fully cracked open now. I fell into the couch and Macy curled up next me and I held onto her for dear life. He was gone and he was gone till who knew when.
