The Demons inside her *ON HOLD*

chapter 6

Mayas POV
I wake up to have my body snuggled up to a hard body that I remember intently. I can't believe I slapped the queen, but it seemed she has forgotten my behavior by the way she is holding me close. I try get up to pee, but she moans and pulls me closer.
"I need to pee, let me go." She did but sat up and rubbed her eyes. She looked so sexy with just her sports bra on and her well defined abs showing. She catches me looking and smirks.
"Like what you see." I blush and hurry in the bathroom when I finish my business I wash my hands when I look up, I scream. The queen burst in,
"What's wrong," she says on alert. She sees I'm looking at the mark where she bit me it is a big red splotch with two bumps where her teeth sank in.
She smirks,"Now the whole world will know you are mine and no one else's ." I look at her like like she's crazy.
"No disrespect queen—,
"Call me Nic," she interrupts.
"Nic, I don't even know you, we just met. I don't even know what you mean by mate."
"Okay, I can see that I have gone about this all wrong. Ugh, let me see, go get in the shower, when you come out breakfast will be waiting for you and I will tell you about myself. I nod and head to the shower.
The hot water felt good against my skin. It felt good to get cleaned. Even though its only been a day I felt extremely dirty. I got out and dried off. There was a sweater waiting for me when I got out, when I put it on it fell mid thigh it was quite large due to the fact that Nic is 5'11 and I'm 5'2, but it smelt of her. Since it covered my ass I was good till I went to the store and bought underwear. I walked out and it looked like she just finished cooking. I went to the kitchen which was off to the side and sat on the stool by the counter. Nic slid a plate to me. She made eggs, bacon and toast. I dug in, when I was finished I wipe my mouth with a napkin. Nic gets up and traps my hand and pulls me toward the couch, I sit down on the far side of the couch and she picks me up like I weigh nothing and sets me on her lap. I tense up first then relax in her arms.
"What do you wanna know?"
"What are mates exactly?"
"Mates are are two people destined to be together. They have a bond that can never be broken. I can't really describe it but they are soul mates."
"Are we mates," I suck in a breath.
"No, more like half," she says.
"What do you mean?"
"Well I mated with you by biting your neck and drinking your blood. So we are half mated. If your in pain a part of me feels pain, when you feel joy, I feel joy. I can sense all your emotions, I can link to you and talk to you telepathically. But we are not fully mates until you claim and drink my blood." I realized that I was still holding my breath so I let it out.
"Oh," I say cause there is nothing I have to say to that. I'm not ready to decide if I want to become her mate.
Nics POV
I see the indecision in her eyes I know not to push her, this is all so new to her.
I try to change the subject,"Ask me another question."
"Okay, everyone has something different about them that's not normal, for example I used to hear voices in my head. What about you?"
"Well, I have demons inside of me," I say not really comfortable where this conversation is heading.
"That doesn't make you unique doesn't everyone around here have demons?" She says.
"Yes but I have two." I know she's gonna ask me why she is my curious little bug. So I speak before she asks. "Everyone here is born with a demon but it was not always like that. In the past my ancestors, witches raised demons into jewelry and they would wear it and the demon would go inside there body and give the witch strength and health. Overtime if the women was mated to another demon they could have children, then a whole knew generation was born with demons inside them. Regularly demons who were born inside you, aren't as strong as the powerful demons the witches trapped in the jewelry. Its still not completely sure how this works but when the baby's in the womb it calls to the demon relatives if the demons of that family. One of the demons give their life to you and reside in the baby. This demon could be strong or not compared to how pure his decent if the father demon possessed a child then the child would be powerful but if a cousin passed it the child would be not so powerful," I say.
"You lost me," she says, I know I did cause I'm confusing myself.
"Okay, I have to teach it to you like my parents talked to me. Okay, there is a different plane forgot what it is called demons  live there its a horrible place. So demon come here to have a better life but the only way to come here is to take a human as a host so they give us there power and immortality to live inside us here. Demons don't have covens or packs they have families. The older the family the stronger the person gets when they are possessed by it. Now there is eight demon families. Now here is where it gets complicated now each family has a father, uncles, aunties, wife/mate, children cousins. Now the most powerful person in the family is the father, then the fathers brothers which are the uncles, then the father sisters the aunts, then its the fathers children, then the children's cousins. Now since there are eight demon families there are seven dukes, and I the queen which makes eight. Okay, now here's another hard part, demons didn't know how to possess a human until the witches rose up the eight fathers and put them in jewelry to wear to give them power. Out of the eight fathers one was stronger than all the rest and when the witch got possessed  by him she was queen. The most powerful. Then later on the witches realized if you mate with another demon you could have kids so they created a new race born with a demon. This was possible because the father demon inside the witch who is carrying the baby calls its Family to have a demon posses the child to be with the father once more one demon steps forward and posses the baby. It could be anyone in the family that steps forward so a person could get a weak cousin demon or a powerful uncle or anything in between. The witches though gave their jewelry to their first born girl and sometimes first born son. The father we don't know why kills the demon inside you and then resides in you. Its been a tradition as long as I can remember to pass on the jewelry to the next leader of your house hold. But for me its different I have two demons because I was born with one and then I got one passed down, but the father demon did not kill the one inside me because its his twin brother," I say.
"But I thought you said there was only eight fathers."
"No, I said there was eight families. What the witches did not know was that one family had two fathers because they were twins. So when they raised up eight fathers they didn't get all. It is very unusual for someone of my generation to get a powerful demon. Cause you see, only the first few couple generations got the powerful demons now people only get cousins but if your lucky you might get a child of the father demon. So only the leader who gets a father demon which is passed down is powerful," I say. I let out a breath its getting late and I got no work done. I see Maya yawn so I pick her up bridal style and carry her over to the bed.
"So you are descended from witches," she mumbles.
"Yes, now rest I will be back to take you down to dinner," I say while I lay her down and tuck her in.
"Stay with me," she mumbles. I know I have a ton of work to do but I crawl into bed beside her and pull her close and fall asleep.
