My eyes fluttered open to see I was in a very familiar all black bedroom and I cursed pinching myself over and over, trying wake up, but to no avail when I opened my eyes I was still in the stupid bedroom. I forgot he could do this. This isn't even fair! He's cheating. I can hang up or leave him on read in my dream.

"Babygirl...." my body tensed up as I heard his voice, his large hands caressed my sides and his body heat radiated onto me in harsh waves.

"I told you not to call me that. I'm not your babygirl" I stood up walking away from him. I could feel his stare boring into my back. I was wearing one of Andre's hoodies, knee socks and undies. A few minutes ago I had fallen asleep on the couch cause they'd gone on a date and I was all alone and now I'm stuck here.

"Can you just let me explain please? If you don't like what you hear I'll leave you alone forever" Did I want that? To pretend like he never existed at all? For him to be nothing but a memory? I really didn't know. My mind and my heart have been so damn conflicted these days.

"I'm listening...." I sat on the couch against the wall, away from him pulling my knees to my chest, resting my head on top of them, staring at him. He let his chin hairs grow out, it was cute. It's been about a month and I'd been avoiding Sinclair as much as possible. I haven't been in my apartment and I went so far as to get a talisman that wards off demons, just it's upstairs over the bed and I'm sleeping downstairs on the couch.

"I'm not just any incubus" he started off his story and I listened closely to everything he was saying.

"I'm Prince Sinclair Gambino, son of the King and Queen of Lust and next in line for the throne. Before I was born my father signed a contract with a fellow king stating that I'd marry his eldest daughter and she'd rule beside me as Queen; that's who my mother introduced as my so called fiance..."

He's engaged to a fucking princess?! Of fucking course. He has a whole princess as his future wife and I'm just here being a bum. Lovely.

"If you would let me finish instead of thinking negatively" he rolled his eyes at me and I stuck my tongue out at him

"When I found out I refused to high Heaven. I grew up watching the people in the kingdom find their mates and settle down happily. I never thought I'd have that so I did what any incubus would do. I fucked my problems away and then I found you...." there was a tense silence in the air after that and I looked everywhere but him.

"Suddenly only you could feed my sexual energy and you roamed my mind. I tried so hard to stay away from you but I couldn't. Your laugh, your smile, your blush, the way you sing in the shower and dance around the kitchen when you're cooking. Just you. I watched you and suddenly I couldn't get you out of my head."

"My every waking thought surrounded you and once I made you have your first dream I was an addict. Kendra was always glued to me and my parents were always pestering me so I ran away to be with you but they've found me"

"My parents have always tried to control my life. They want me to take over the throne and marry Kendra, to them I'm nothing but an heir. My parents have never been parents. I was technically raised by the servants in the castle."

"They nursed me to health when my dad beat me to a pulp cause I couldn't beat him in a fight or I didn't want kill an innocent and made me feel better when my mom would scream at me for a little mistake like tripping or stumbling. They taught me other things beside murder and sex. They're my family" his voice shook at the end and I had to resist the urge to get up and console him.

Was there even a reason to be mad? I mean it's nothing but an arranged marriage that he wants no part of. Did I overreact? Maybe I should've just let him explain the first place instead of being extra. Definitely...

"There's more...."

"They want me to take the throne but taking the throne would mean that you'd have to Queen. Once an incubus with royal blood finds their mate no one but their mate can rule by their side; even if that wasn't true I wasn't marrying Kendra for nothing. A human cannot rule in hell....." his red rimmed eyes met mine and my breath hitched.

"I'd have to turn you into some kind of demon. As Queen there's so much people that are going to be after you. A Queen is stronger than their King so you'll be a target and I just cannot do that to you. I can't intentionally put you in danger but then again I don't think I can survive without you" this was a lot to take in. Me a demon? A queen?

"I don't want to take the throne and as much as I love telling my father to fuck off I'm not doing it, it is my responsibility as the prince and my people deserve more than my cruel mother and father" King Sinclair Gambino, it had a nice ring to it.

I let the urge get the best of me and walked right into his arms. He wrapped his arms around my waist and cuddled into my belly and I ran my fingers through his hair. This was a lot to think about, my life would definitely change and I don't know if it would be for the better or for the worse. I felt stuck between a rock and hard place.

"You don't have to make a choice now. I just want you in my arms again" I nodded but my mind was still on the situation.

"I know you're lying. You're worrying. I'm in your head babygirl" I sighed.

This was a lot of information to take in all of once, the fiance thing didn't even matter anymore. Sinclair's a prince, a future king and he wants me to rule by his side but that would mean he'd have to turn me into a demon like him. Would I even be a good queen?

"I just need time to process all this"

It was really setting in that Sinclair wasn't exactly human now and that my life could potentially be at risk being with him.

"Okay take as long as you need"

In a blink of an eye I was back in Anna's living room. Sherlock was still playing on Netflix and food was still everywhere.

For some reason I burst into tears, you ever just cry and you don't know why you're crying. I just needed to cry.

I heard the front door open and immediately Anna was by my side holding me.

"What's wrong?" Anna asked worriedly and I wiped my snooty nose before answering her.

"I talked to S-Sinclair..." I muttered, well he technically talked to me.

"Okay....what did he say?" Andre but in, I'd been trying to hold him back from going and beating the shit out of Sinclair, cause he really wanted to. He trusted him and one thing Andre hates is mistrust.

"He explained himself" I told them little snippets of what Sinclair told me leaving out the entire incubus thing, so the arranged marriage and his parents constantly trying to control his life and how he refused.

"So he's not engaged?" I nodded my head, my sobbing had died down to sniffles.

"Good cause I was gonna bomb his car, light that bitch the fuck up with him in it. Oouu he's so lucky" I burst out laughing.

"So you can go back to your apartment right?"

And Andre ruins the moment again.
