The Hell In Helena

Chapter Eight

Keep Me Alive

Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events that occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future.

In other words, things happen randomly and things happen fast. So fast that for one moment, you can be something and another thing in another.

For example, one moment you're going on a date with your crush, almost did the dirty deed with him, tragically got caught by your own father, and the next, he tells you you're a succubus all this time.

Yes, a succubus.

A man seducing, fantasy satisfying, sex thriving demon.

Hard to take in, I know.

I looked at the view of our small town from my dad's balcony as I tried to reflect and absorb everything.

The busy streets with the busy cars, all passing by not knowing anything in the world.

"So, I'm a succubus." I sighed to myself.

"...part succubus actually, I'm sorry I had to wait til you're... grown up to tell you, Helena. I thought it wouldn't even matter if I'd tell you or not." My dad held my shoulders from behind.

So these crazy feelings I've been having, all these mixed up emotions, all this time I thought I was just a psycho for craving sex,

"But I'm a succubus after all," I faced him. "And I need sex to..."

"Keep yourself alive." He took a deep sigh, dismayed. Like all this was all his fault.

"Well actually, for some scientific reason that even I, a doctor, heck— a world-renowned surgeon couldn't even figure out is that succubi crave affection and touch. It's the feeling they're— you're looking for, not the actual act." His wrinkles on his forehead became evident as he looked down.

"Dad, I'm not mad or anything but this is all too much,"

"I know, honey. But I'm here for you." His eyes teared.

"But how? When?"

"Your mum is a succubus. Apparently, I'm one of her victims and..." So she must be a full-blown seductive woman— who used my dad to give her pleasure.

"Dad, I think I'll take some rest now." I immediately turned my back as soon as my heart started throbbing again.

I knew that even I'll be given answers tonight, answers that I've been looking for, explaining why I'm behaving this way— it still won't help me cope up with all of this.

I hated the thought of my mum being a- whore. Let alone a demon whore. I wonder
how is she right now. Is she still doing those deeds? Was she even kind to dad?

That's why she left us.

I went to bed thinking that when I wake up, everything will turn back to the way things are.

My alarm went off and to my dismay, I woke up remembering all that happened last night. What fool could think of sleeping could actually make you forget your problems? Your identity?

I got dressed and went to school to be loudly greeted by Cay as soon as I stepped inside the hallways.

"Gu—rl! So did it hurt? Tell me all the dirty lil' deets!" Typical Caia. If you only knew.

Way up to start the morning, "Hmm where should I start?" I laughed mostly because I don't even know why I'm still going to school with all of this.

"Well, he's a lifeguard for a reason, I'll tell you that. He has a body that makes you wanna drown on purpose!" I said as she squealed covering her mouth.

Oh you ain't hearing anything yet. "But we didn't had sex," She narrowed her eyebrows.

"'Cause my paps caught us,"

"W-what!?" She exclaimed.

"And it turns out... I'm part succubus." I grinned.

As I said those words, at first she laughed and thought I was joking, but as I went on to explain, her amused expression shifted in curiosity.

"So basically, you need sex in order to heal the pain or the illness you're feeling, so you won't die?" Her jaw drops in disbelief.

"Yes," I closed my locker as we walked into our first period.

"But mainly, I need affection, Cay. Not the sex part only." I snorted making her roll her eyes.

She snickered, "Yeah right. I wish I was you right now, that would be an awesome reason to have sex." Oh, I doubt that.

The bell rang signaling it was time for first period to begin and as the class started to be filled with students, I froze at my sight.

"So what ya gonna do with Mr. Mcdreamy over there?" Cay elbowed me referring to Sky as he entered the classroom wearing his typical varsity jacket. Acting normal, like nothing happened last night.

"Well," I gazed at him as he turned to me and somewhat avoided my look.

"Imagine one day, you wake up and realized you're dying and sex is your only cure, what will you do?"
