The other side of the Mirror (boyxboy)

Chapter 11.

Of course, when I saw it, I wasn’t surprised at all from the answer of my question. That was a volat – a rotten soul from the reflected world in the mirror, which it escaped together with me. They do hate us from a while, and it’s understandable – we take their skin off and we dry them outside like little sausages, we smash them to puree and we inhale them with our nose like drugs, because for us, they were exactly that. In this world, I suppose, drug sources weren’t as mobile as these. In our world, they were alive, breathing, moving in groups and flying in the sky, adding some final details to our apocalyptic sky. From afar they looked gorgeous, but I suppose their faces weren’t as beautiful up close.

I’ve never seen a volat that close. I’ve never looked into his eyes, never felt his scaly skin .. Only the dust left from its’ drying and cooking.

I clenched my teeth, realizing that I was starting to lose my mind from the magnificent, pulsating red light on the belly of the volat. No one knows for sure what its purpose is, but we think it’s either to alert other volats about its presence in the sky, or to lure her victims with its mesmerizing light show.

I gulped quietly and prepared myself mentally, knowing that I was about to run for my life. The creature pretended it didn’t see me (they were that smart), but the moment I look away, it’ll fly straight at me.

There was no point in delaying something which would happen sooner or later.

Using a dark alley for cover, I quickly turned in its direction and hid in the shadows. The creature above me cried and flew down – something I noticed through the pulsing light on its tummy.

If it was their greatest pro, then that signaling was also their biggest con.

I held my breath as it looked around, yet surprisingly, it averted his gaze to the skies and flew once again, quickly forgetting about its prey. I was more than confused but I couldn’t question it now. Perhaps Devin would know.

Then again, what would he know?

I left the dark alley and quickly ran in a random direction, feeling adrenaline build up in my stomach. It was such a lovely night – Christmas songs echoing everywhere, happy laughs and children playing and running around me. I swear to God, a kid even bumped in my legs, because it mistook me for the snow.

I was pale. Very pale. I was also quite handsome.

I smirked slightly when I reached a little, cozy house. It was in the middle of the city, and had cute snowmen in the yard, as well as Christmas lamps on the roof and around the windows and doors. It seemed incredibly sweet, yet such an emotion wasn’t known to me.

I suppose it looked nice.

Clearing my throat, I stepped closer to the entrance of this sweet home and knocked, waiting patiently outside. I didn’t expect to get greeted happily, yet I was a little surprised when Devin opened the door with his eyes wide and his mouth hanging open.

“Sup.” I nodded.

“U-Uh .. h-how did you..?”

“Well, I’ve been here before.” I confessed, further adding to the perplexed expression the brunette had on his face. Indeed, I’ve been here once. I remember it vaguely, and it feels more like a déjà vu, but my heart knew I’ve walked through these doors in the past.

“I..My mom is here, s-so -..”

“Great, I’ve always wanted to meet your beautiful mother. She’s single, isn’t she?” I smiled, feeling inner satisfaction when I saw Devin’s horrified look.

“W-what do you mean, my mom’s .. yes, she’s divorced, b-but that’s..”

“Relax, I’m gay.”

“W-WHAT, I-..”

“Joking.” I chuckled. His expressions were just priceless. I didn’t even know what gay means, but as far as I’ve heard from the people here, ‘gay’ means ‘bad’.  Very bad.

“O-oh, phew..” Dev relaxed, sighing in a slight disappointment, which he thought he had hidden with his own words of relief.

“Not.”

“W-WH-..”

I laughed out loud, seeing the brunette’s shock once again. He was so confused now, and a blush was spreading generously on his cheeks, yet I knew deep inside that .. this wasn’t even his final form.

I licked my lips mockingly and stepped forward, closing the door behind and pressing his back against it. We were outside, in the cold, yet his breathing felt so warm against my face. Devin was practically panting from embarrassment; his ears painted in a bright red, while his eyes were tightly shut, as if he was expecting to get his head chopped.

“D..Don’t erase my memory..” He quietly pleaded while stuttering, something to which I raised my eyebrows in confusion. Erase his memories? I couldn’t do that. My powers were a bit different.

“Even if I wanted, I wouldn’t be able to. Although I can do something else ..” my words trailed off, and a moment after, I could see him open his hazel eyes curiously. Humans were so predictable. They looked innocent, yet on the inside, they hungered for the forbidden fruit of wisdom, of knowledge for both evil and good. They looked harmless, yet they were capable of inflicting damage beyond imagination.

“W-what?” He asked, gulping from the lack of distance we had. Our lips were a breath away, and I knew that breath was making him uncomfortable.

I smiled mischievously, stroking his left cheek graciously. He didn’t flinch, to my surprise, but that was probably because he was so confused and still wondering what was my special ability.

“I can make new ones.” I softly whispered, and before he could question me, I took that breath away and joined our lips together, feeling his body tighten from the shock. Devin’s breath hitched, to which I smirked proudly. A moan was building in his throat, yet he kept it from leaving.

Cute.

I slowly ticked his lower lip with my tongue, moistening it with its hot and wet tip, and I could feel him lose his will to fight back and softly moan against my mouth, making the kiss vibrate sweetly. It was something I’ve never done before in my life, but I couldn’t help it when he reacted that way every time I teased him with words. Devin was so easy to provoke .. I had to see more of him. I wanted to see more. And I was going to.

Breaking our kiss, I breathed in slowly, whilst on the other hand, the brunette was panting heavily, his eyes moistened on their ends. His groin was pressed against my leg and I could feel something hard rub it. I couldn’t tell what it was. I didn’t know. I’ve never seen or felt it. I was merely teasing him, testing him. I wanted to see how far he will go.

Yet, looking at him now, I felt my own heart tremble in excitement. This was the first time I’ve had such sensations, and I couldn’t help but feel curious myself. Another reason why I needed to get more of the boy. And I will, I smirked.

I’ll see every single emotion on his face and every single part of his gentle body. I’ll tease him to the point where he’s writhing below me, trembling and begging me to stop, with teary eyes and flushed skin. I’ll make him feel so much at once..

And I’ll be doing it tonight.
