Witch Doctor #4: Talisman MxM (Staten Krown)

6

It was a Friday evening when I finally caught up with Genesis. He was actually in the ballroom of the Sanctuary. I walked in and saw that he was talking to some of the workers who were decorating the ballroom hall for the Queen's arrival. The decorators were human this time and from the look of it he was just ordering them around.

"I fucking trusted you!" I said immediately walking up to him, "You made a deal with Belial seriously?"

Genesis looked over to the woman who was standing next to him, "Ashley can you go ahead and make sure the carpets are cleaned. We need everything steamed and ready. Also I'll need several dozen flowers...red roses. Line up on the aisles."

"I'm talking to you!"
I wanted to put my hands on him so badly at that moment

Genesis smiled at his assistant who looked at me and seemed a little scared. He grabbed me, pulling me by my arm and took me to a private corner of the ballroom.

"Are you crazy?" Genesis asked, "You want to talk about magic in front of humans? You need to be more discreet."
"I don't give a flying fuck about discretion. Did you or did you not make a deal with Belial? Did you tell the demon to go after Micko years ago?"

Genesis laughed, "I did no such thing. Let me guess...Micko told you that."
"Clearly and I believe him."

Genesis looked heavily annoyed, "Get it through your fucking skull Mason. Micko is still possessed by Belial. He's trying to turn us against one another. That's what the fuck demons do. They cause mischief."
I looked at Genesis. It could have been an issue of the boy who called wolf. Genesis was sneaky as fuck and I always knew that. He was the most manipulative person I knew. The idea of having him really do one more thing manipulative was really bothering me. I hated the idea of it.

"If I find out you are lying to me," I threatened him.

I knew Genesis didn't take threats softly.

He surprisingly tried to touch my cheek and I had to admit his touch was soft...tender, "Don't be like that Mason..."

"Don't fucking touch me!"
I pulled away. The reaction had happened so quickly. I was pissed off at him. I didn't trust him. Genesis probably did make set Micko up all those years ago. Because of Genesis I missed 5 years with the father of my son. Now Genesis was sitting around giving orders to the help like some desperate housewife while I had to raise my son alone. It wasn't fucking fair.

"So Micko's back and I can't touch you anymore?" he asked.

"You know and I know it was just about sex. You knew how I felt about Micko before we started doing what we started doing. You were just a fuck to me Genesis. Plain and simple..."

Genesis withdrew his hand. It was the first time that I saw him look hurt over just words. I had to admit that Genesis looked hurt. He stepped back at that moment. I thought about taking it back and even apologizing but I didn't. I wanted to hurt Genesis. I wanted to pay him back for all the things that he had done to Micko and I.

"I need to get back to planning," Genesis explained walking away. I could tell he was actually really hurt by it. I reached my hand out to pull him back but I stopped. Maybe it was best that I let him go. Whatever this thing was that I had going on with Genesis had gone long enough.

A week had passed that I had seen Micko. Genesis or Brandon must have scolded the Demetrius guy more because for some reason he was stuck to Micko. There was no way for me to actually get to him. I missed him. I wanted to see him. I wanted him to see his son. Things with Genesis and I were definitely on the rocks. I was pretty sure it had something to do with Micko being back. I kind of just knew that we would have had a strained relationship. I didn't know what to really think about whether or not Genesis was lying or Micko. My heart said to trust Micko. Micko had to be real. He had to have come back to me.
