Book of the Demon {Harry Styles au}

VIII

I stood still in front of the door still debating whether or not I should trust this 'Alex' or not. I know Harry told me not to let anyone else inside besides Liam too. Alex's icy blue eyes stared into my brown ones, watching my every small movement, waiting for me to do something. I didn't like the vibe I was feeling around this guy, he gave me an off feeling. Out of no where, I step aside making a little room for Alex to step in. I didn't think this through I just did.

"Very obedient, Harry must've gotten lucky with you." He says while stepping further into castle. He looks at me and his eyes wonder around my body, making me regret letting him in. "Very lucky." He speaks again all while licking his lips hungrily, I felt like a meal.

"Oh, but baby. You are a meal." He says responding to my lost thoughts.

"What?"

"You're a meal to probably almost every creature in this forest, especially Harry. I'm surprised you didn't die like that poor Ashley, she was eaten up by the screamers. But I can tell you, as long as you're Harry's he'll do anything in his will power to keep you safe." He says. His voice and words, just the way he spoke made me have a feeling I couldn't describe. It's not a good one either.

"What are you talking about?" I'm a meal to Harry, but he'll do anything in his power to keep me safe? I'm just a random seventeen year old who read the wrong book.

"The book you read, did you finish it?" He says not answering my questions.
Curiosity and wonder filling his voice.

"No, I barely read any of it." I say honestly. I barely touched the book. Sure I read the first couple pages and the last page, but that's it.

"That's all it takes sweet heart, just a glance at one sentence in that devilish book, and you're his. - Did he ever tell you about the book and it's curse. Did he tell you story behind the book and the curse it has?" He spoke coming closer to me, my back was now up against the old wooden wall of the castle. We stood face to face, but not really, he's a lot taller than me. Although he doesn't compare to Harry's height.

He bit his lower lip and stared down at my own. "Damn, I might just have to take you for myself."

In a flash Alex is ripped away from my body. I look to see who it was and it's a girl. She has the same vibrant icy blue eyes like Alex along with the same jet black hair, her's being long, cascading down to her mid back. He chuckles a bit. "Alex, what the hell, stop playing around. Liam and Harry are coming soon and we gotta go!" She yells at him.

"Alexis chill, look who I found." This so called Alexis looks over at me and smiles a wicked smile. "She's Harry's." Alex finishes off, wiping the smiles right off her face.

She grabs Alex's hand and she pulls him out of the castle. I wait a couple minuets or so to make sure they left. I slowly walk over to the door and see they're no where in sight. I let out a huge sigh of relief that they had left, but Alex had told me more information that I wanted to know about. I would ask Harry but I'm not sure how he would react to that.

"You're a meal to probably almost every creature in this forest, especially Harry."

I jump up when the door swings open and I see Harry walk in with stains on his cloths along with a boy behind him holding several bags. They step in fully into the castle and I see the boy with the big brown eyes. Liam.

Liam plops all of the stuff onto the wooden floor boards and looks up at me and smiles. I smiles back and whisper a faint 'thank you' in which he just nods as a response. I look around for Harry but he kinda just disappeared.
