The Demon Queen

Chapter 5

Scarlett’s POV-

I hurriedly pulled Amelia from the library, after checking my books out. We headed straight for the café; Amelia could tell there was something going on. But I said nothing until we were sitting with our coffees. I told her what happened in the library between Birsha and I. Honestly, at that moment, a virgin like me would probably have felt trapped, maybe too nervous to do anything. But I felt this surge of energy like if I didn’t do something to touch him, or be close to him, I might die. Every fiber in my being was telling me to jump on him, right there in the library. His smell felt even more alluring. When I kissed his cheek, I could feel strong tingles like tiny sparks from where my lips pressed against his cheek. He shuddered at the kiss on his cheek, but was stunned. I knew Damien was watching us. I wonder how he felt about that situation. I can still feel those tingles even now, as I recount what happened and told how I felt to Amelia.

“Is this what it feels like for demons, when they touch their fated mates,” I asked her.

She shrugged, “I would assume it is the same for all supernatural creatures, though were-creatures are different, as they have an extra being inside them that screams that is our mate. For those of us without those creatures, we have to listen to our instincts, the mate bond relies heavily on us trusting our instincts. We do feel the tingles or sparks from our mates’ touches, or from when we touch them, which you have already said you experienced. So, let me ask you this, does it feel right instinctually speaking to pounce on them and rip their clothes off?”

I blushed at the thought of doing that, but I still nodded, “It does feel right. But I am only seventeen.”

“Only for a few more days, plus your demons have thousands of years on you and with each other, so their bond in probably unbreakable. I don’t even think witch magic could touch it. And, I have always said you are incredibly powerful. I have never seen a witch and demon hybrid before, not to mention some of the things you have done are remarkable, and half of you have not been awakened yet. So, being this close to them, your mate bond with them could already be trying to form,” she responded, keeping her voice low.

“It will be nice if it is trying to form, because honestly, I like them both. But I just wish I knew more about being a demon. You told me everything you knew, which isn’t much. I wish my dad were here, I miss him,” I said.

“Well, first, ask those mates of yours. I am sure they would be more than willing to answer any questions that you have. As for your father, do you not know where he went, or tell you a way to contact him,” she asked.

I sighed, “He gave me something to use to contact him should I ever need him, but those bastard step-siblings of mine destroyed. So, I really do not know. From what I have heard, he needs to be the one to awaken my demon, so surely, he would find me on my eighteenth, right?”

“I really do hope so. You know when we do this pamper session, we should totally bring our mates. You bring your demons, and I bring my bear and vamp,” she giggled.

“You want them to meet, don’t you,” I chuckled.

She nodded, “I think it would be hilarious.”

“Okay, I will ask them to come,” I smiled.

“So, when are you going to kiss them? You haven’t even had your first kiss yet,” she said.

“I don’t know. I need to find time to talk with them about stuff. They probably have already figured out that I am pure,” I whispered to her.

“Well, if they haven’t, I will drop massive hints. Not to mention my bear, has no filter and can smell purity,” she winked.

“Don’t tell me he smelt it on me,” I said.

She nodded, “Ajax did smell it. He was so disappointed when he didn’t smell it on me, but when I explained my age and Silas' age and when he and I met, he understood.”

“I guess it is something I will have to come to understand. I don’t even know how old they are. I have a lot to talk with them about while making sure we get this assignment done,” I sighed.

“Don’t worry, I have a feeling that they are your mates, so honestly, just try to talk about everything, and be open. The more open and truthful you are, the better it is for mates to get along. Something I hope they will be with you. Being the youngest, they will try to protect you and shield you from the world. Not to mention you are a woman. Ajax is the youngest, but because I am a woman, Silas and he are always trying to protect me,” Amelia replied.

“That does not surprise me. God, I am so worried about my first time,” I whispered.

“Why? Because you have two huge hunks to deal with for your first time,” she giggled.

I nodded, she took my hand, and said, “The only time I would be worried about demons, is lust demons. There are different types. I heard that lust demons can’t control themselves when they are intimate, and they get rough. I also heard that they have this craze they go in, the longer they are not intimate. But if one of them is a lust demon, I am sure the other one will protect you for your first few times, at least.”

“How would I know if they are lust demons or not,” I asked.

She shrugged, “I have no idea. Just be grateful that you know they are demons.”

My phone buzzed on the table in front of me. I looked, and it was a text from an unknown number. It read, “It is Birsha. Damien and I are outside waiting for you. Xx”

I couldn’t help but smile at the text on my screen. Amelia chuckled next to me. I looked at her and said, “What?”

“I have never seen you smile like that at a text before. Is it from them,” she asked.

I nodded, blushing, but still smiling, “I had better go. They want to go on a study date.”

“Go, I think I need to rendezvous with my mates anyway,” she shooed me away towards the door to the café.

I grabbed my bag and the stack of books I had gotten from the library, before stepping towards the front entrance to the café. I paused, turning around, and Amelia waved, winking at me. I felt so nervous. I turned to the entrance, and took another step towards it, as my phone buzzed again. It was a text from Birsha again, “Hurry and get that cute ass of yours out here, before we come in here and carry you out.”

I felt my cheeks flush red, as I put my phone back in my bag, and pulled my car keys out. I headed outside. I gripped my keys and books tightly to my chest. I felt so nervous about being alone with them, in my own home. Everyone always says I am so mature, so grown up, but I always get so nervous about so many things. When my eyes locked on them, my breathing hitched, and I thought my heart would stop. They look so handsome. They always make me nervous. They both flashed handsome smiles at me, making my heart melt, as I moved closer to them.
