Demons without Desire

Getting the hell out of here.

"Kaylee? Speak to me sweetie.." Zak urged.

"What?" I whispered confused.

"I said how are you feeling now?"

I pushed my feet under my body and stood up straight "I- I'm okay.. It's gone.. It has left for a while." I answered moving off him and to the basin. I looked at myself in the mirror seeing my puffy face and blood shot eyes.

"I- Hold on. Kaylee I'm just going outside the diner okay? Reception is terrible in here." Zak spoke with the phone pressed against his shoulder.

I nodded and ran the cold water, collecting it in my hand I threw it across my face and leant against the wall. Zak gave me another concerned look before leaving me alone in the restrooms.

Taking a look at myself in the mirror, I tried to fix my hair from the matted mess it had become from my hands pulling at it. Standing quietly I looked at the water disappearing in the basin before turning the tap off.

I could feel vibrations across my back, the hair slowly rose as I lifted my eyes to look in the mirror slowly. As I did, the mirror cracked causing me to startle back and cover my mouth slightly.

"I know you are still here.." I whispered looking around as I pressed myself up against the wall.

'I've been good to you Kaylee.. I've kept you out of harms way.' A voice spoke. I looked around me and back in the mirror before checking the cubicles.

"How? You're hurting me."

'No... No I'm not. It's a pleasurable pain but you wont accept it.'

"Because you're a demon." I retorted.

'I don't have to be... I can be anyone you want me to be.' It spoke.

Images of men flashed behind my eyes making me grip my head, one image stopped... Zak.

'I can be him. Only I have never lied to you...'

"Get out of my head." I struggled blinking tears away. I have gone cra-

'You haven't gone crazy.. Why would you think that?'

"Because this is messed up. Please! Please just leave me alone." I cried quietly.

'I'm protecting you from harm..'

"Harm from who?! You are the one hurting me!" I fired.

Sexual images flashed in my mind rapidly making me shrink back into the corner and slide onto the ground. Then it all froze as one image came up and stayed.. Of Zak and Elle, together.

'Haven't you seen the way they look at each other?'

"You're making this up."

'Am I? I can see inside his head as well as hers and even yours. This wasn't so long ago you know..'

"You're a liar." I growled.

'Are you sure? You saw Elle leant towards Zak.. She's a maneater, that's the term you humans use.. She has already tasted his body, a long time before you noticed him.'

"Shut up."

'What about Eric? Can you remember that moment you found him and that woman? She wasn't a mark on you. He swapped a platinum for a piece of copper.. You were better than her, you knew that. You were 10x the woman she was.'

"And..."

'Can you see her face? Do you need me to sh-'

Her face came up in my mind 'That's my girl. You know her.. Now. Who does she look like?'
