Succubus And Her Hunter

Do succubus exist or is it a fairytale?

A little child asked. She smiled and touch the face of the little girl.

"Every little tales exist and maybe Succubus do too" she looked at the dull colors of the sky. " It will rain soon. Come we must move hastily to catch up with the rest of the travelers."

They stood up from the fallen tree in search of the travelers crew they had lost. The little girl looked back and for a minute she looked at me who had hidden in the coverage of a tree to watch them.

Her blue eyes smiled at me and I was surprised. I wasn't in my beautiful form during the day and from my last night adventure I need some time to recover so I wasn't beautiful or alluring but still she smiled as she looked over her shoulders and for the first time I didn't feel dirty..

The moon shone brighter than it has ever done and once again I became beautiful and lustful. Whoever said Succubus walks into dreams to fulfill their sexual urges clearly degrade us, Dream walking was the smallest fragment of my ability. I stared at the lake, looking at my reflection and admiring myself. Sleek long black hair and the pitch black eyes which transformed into wood brown. Everything was complete and it was time to play.

Who knew tonight was going to turn into what I didn't expect. Walking into the bar and all eyes laid on me, all lustful and I feed on it. I sense so many lustful desires in this place, it gave me a thrilling rush in my body and when I sat down, they all came running at my feet. Offering their golds and lands to me and I enjoyed it and it was then my eyes laid on him. He was drinking so fast as if he was been chased. Probably he had a stressful day or something and when his gaze landed at me and he smirked. I was used to getting men falling on my feet but I wasn't used to rejection and him not coming to fall on my feet with promises to give up wealth and status was rejection. For the first time I felt intrigued by this stranger and stood up to meet him.

*Name's Christian. What's yours? His voice sounded like a melody in my eyes and it made my sexual desires increase and this men could never fufill it. It was something only him could do and it was something I wanted only him to do.

"Ophis" I trailed my hands on his shoulder but he didn't respond which made me confused.

"Ophis.. what does it mean? He looked at me like he was staring at my soul that's if I had one.

"Serpent" I smiled and took his drink.

"Ophis, serpent, pretty" he said in a low tone and I stared at him. For the first time I can't decipher what a man was thinking and before I could ask, he crushed down his lips on mine like a hungry animal. My body responded to it and somehow we got out of the bar to his house. A small cottage in the valley and it was so quiet, I assumed he lived here alone. He unclad and I did the same, his lips were on mine again and this time he was possessive. I became submissive under his touch like a animal that was tamed and yes he tamed me with every touch from his hands. I was excited, no, I was hyped with sexual urges which had never happened to me before with any of the men I've slept with and when he entered inside me, I roared softly. My eyes went pitch black and l felt a rush of life inside me, something I never felt before with anyone.

"You're so sweet" He groaned with pleasure. He gave and I received, I gave and he received. The pleasure was too much and unbearable. My tongue elongated and I hissed softly. He took me to the peak of my desire and we came down, I felt Alive.

Our affair went on and on every night, for months and I was in love with him. So funny for a demon of lust to be in love but here I was, so in love that I was willing to tell him everything. So that night after we had another experience of estacy, I was convinced that I want to remain by his side for eternity and beyond.

"Christian"

"Yes Love"

" The truth is....."

So I told him everything, from my existence down to the tales of everything i had done, hoping to still be loved but instead of Love I got Hatred. The love in his eyes were replaced with disgust, anger and rejection. Just one look into his eyes, I knew I had made a terrible decision.

"You've been sucking life out of me everytime we sleep together" He became a roaring beast, A madness. And that night, I tasted Fear and Destruction. He had became my nightmare, beat me up till I was lifeless on the floor. I could've fought back, killed him but no, he was the first and last human I love and the moment his love was replaced with anger, I knew there wasn't a point in living.

I struggled to stand up from the floor when he returned with Men who took me and tied me up to a cursed tree. I knew I was going to die and it was useless to escape besides it was daylight and my energy has been drained out. I looked at the faces who came to watch my end and I looked at his face. It wasn't the man I had fallen in love with, tears flowed down my eyes as the villagers set the tree on fire. The heat wasn't suppose to burn me since I was born out of fire but with my energy all gone, I was vulnerable and it got to me. I cried out as I burn slowly. The men who had slept with me were laughing.... At Me.

"I curse you with my tears" I screamed out loud. "All you that rejoice over my death so shall your enemies rejoice over your death. You shall bury your children, you shall weep over the lost of your lands, Children and you all shall call for death but death had abandoned you" I laughed.

"You all will beg for your daily bread and eventually become the bread of the birds of the air" tears were pouring down so fast. "Hell will be released unto you". My eyes were now closing in death, I stared their faces then my eyes meet that of a little girl. Those blue eyes I remembered vividly were filled with tears too. I sense her emotions and she did with mine.

"I will be with you for eternity to come...."

Psalm had only one goal in life which was breaking his family's curse that had been passed down from generations. He never wanted this life but the life found him, he always wanted to live peacefully with the lady of his dreams and raise cute, troublesome kids but sometimes reality gives you a life different from what you wanted. And it didn't stop him from having the life he desired and he was willing to go all the way to have it. All he needed to do was to find the descendant of Ophis and Kill her, it was the only option before his time on earth was up.

He had swore on his late father's deathbed that he would finish what his father had started before he ended up like his father. That's the reason for him not having a committed relationship, the fear of leaving the love of your life behind because of this wicked curse. He too feared that he may end up like his father and his ancestors. This was the unfair gene of the Anderberg bloodline and he was about turning into his thirties which means his time was coming sooner than he had expected. At this point he had wished that he would've gone back in time to his childhood where he had no worries till he turned eighteen when his father had considered him grown enough to learn about his family history. Such a shitty history if you ask him but too bad it was one couldn't escape from it except killing the daughter of Ophis. She was innocent yes as a person but the blood that ran through her was not so innocent. It was demonic as well as her founding ancestor. He was so determined to escape from this fate at all cost and had promised his father he would, and carry on the honor of his family but first he had to get all his stuff inside the house.

"I still don't get it. Why do will have to move all the way from boston to Reedshores" his little brother complained. Messy dark hair, sculpted face that embraced all the fine features, lips slightly red unlike his that was so obvious. Typical teenage with the love of soccer.

"Need a change of atmosphere" He considered telling him everything but he shrugged off that thought. He won't be able to handle it and Psalm wanted him to live a normal life without worrying about when he's going to die just like he had. And besides Reedshores was a good change of pace, a small town with a peaceful atmosphere aside from its insane murder stories but the town itself was a beauty.

"Still don't get it. You could've have accepted the promotion instead of requesting for a transfer"

"Like I said, Dan, change of pace" he smirked. Dan followed him into the house trying to continue the conversation which Psalm kept brushing off.

"Fine as long as Mum can't reach out to us here" Dan's facial expression was sad. He could never get over the painful memory of his mother inflicting pain on him ever since their father died. She grieved so hard and became a monster. Each time she gets home, intoxicated from alcohol, she will beat Dan and blame him for her pain, misery, sorrow and most of all his existence. One night she had come back drunk and had beaten Dan till he almost died if it hadn't been for the neighbor Mrs Jolie who had broken the window glass and rescued him before his own mother could use the baseball bat on him and had rushed him to the hospital where he battled for his life. He was a broken kid and Psalm had blamed himself for not knowing about it

"Hey, she won't come near you anymore. You're with me okay? She can't hurt you anymore" Psalm dropped the boxes on the floor and pulled Dan into his arms, stroking his hair, comforting him. What he passed through was something Psalm couldn't imagine since he had been lucky to escape. That night as Dan had battled for his life in the operation room, Psalm had blamed himself for leaving Dan alone with their mentally deranged mother who would have taken the liberty to end her son's life. But was it really Psalm's fault that it all happened? That question had always been at the back of his mind. He blamed himself for everything and also blamed Ophis for the curse she had made. If he wasn't so caught up trying to break the curse he would've been by his brother's side and this wouldn't have happened. And their father will probably be alive. And their mother maybe won't be the mentally deranged patient she was, they would've been a one big happy family or so he thought.

"Can we order pizza now? " Dan asked. Psalm chucked and nodded his head. No matter what happens, he will give his brother the life he deserved, away from all of this. At least Dan will live a normal life.

"Yes please I'm starving"

"I thought you weren't hungry. Wonder if the nextdoor neighbors are nice " Psalm never cared about his neighbors cause he hardly sees them, some days he won't be back till the next week. But he hoped Dan would get along with the neighbors so he wouldn't get lonely here.

"They'll be nice" Psalm smiled. After thirty minutes of arrangements, they were finally through with moving in when the doorbell rang. Psalm laughed over the tired Dan who lay on the couch looking lifeless. He strutted to the door and opened it.

Looking at the oval face, exotic hazel eyes that dance around with excitement, her lips was unpainted but still looking pink, her ginger red hair was slightly short but not to a man's length and it curled, her lips went into a smile and her dimples made their appearance on the both side of her cheeks.

"Hi! You must be the new neighbor. I'm Emily.."

Emily has always loved art ever since she was a little girl. Her mother always told her that every drawing had life and a meaning, art is life. And this teaching had been stuck in her heart even after Her mother was mysteriously murdered and the police never caught the culprit.

That morning she had prepared to go to work when the town real estate agent informed her about the Psalms move in. She decided she would go say hello when she got back from the office. She had fervently prayed that it shouldn't be an old couple who was moving in but learning that it was some city guys, she was relieved but then again she hoped that it shouldn't be weirdos or an ex-convict. She didn't have any problem with them but she just didn't like having them around.

"Emily. Mrs Callaghan had requested to see the new paintings" Jordy had snapped her out of her unconsciousness and pulled her back to business.

"Thanks Jordy" Jordy was a curator at the gallery and had been friends with her for over two years. Those two clicked the moment they met and have been inseparable. Emily adjusted her outfit as she stood up to meet with her client, probably a potential buyer.

The clock ran more than its usual pace and before Emily knew it, it was time to get off work. The day was still clear and she got a few more minutes to get ready for her night appointment and also stopped by to say hello to her new neighbors.

She stared at her slender figure in the long gold frame mirror that stood by the corner of her room, the dress she had picked hugged her body like a child who won't let go of the mother. The outfit revealed her bare neck with she placed the single gemstone necklace her mother had passed down to her. She clutched it as she stared at herself. She was a splitting image of her mother but tonight she was going to leave her grieving heart and put on a cheerful one. She was ready for her appointment and still had some minutes left. She took her mini bag and strutted over to Psalm's place, she took a deep breath and wore her cheerful smile as she rang the doorbell.

The Man that opened the door was nothing she had ever seen. He was taller than her even on her heels, his face was like that of a Greek god, sculpted and well defined. His wood brown eyes were beautiful and it was nothing like she has ever seen and those kissable lips that stared at her like they were waiting for her to kiss them. She felt the urge of running her hands into his messy hair but she composed herself.

"Hi!,You must be the new neighbor, I'm Emily." She was definitely attracted to this man. The way his eyes stared into hers gave an adrenaline rush.

"Yeah it's nice to meet you Emily. I'm Psalm" his voice sounded like music to her ears and this feeling building inside her was lustful and it was all because of this stranger who stood before her.

"I live across the street, heard you new here just wanted to say hi "

"Sorry we should be the one doing the greetings but we're so tired from moving in "

"Nope it's okay. It doesn't matter" she let out a soft laugh. She was definitely attractive, Psalm concluded.

"Hey babe" A blonde hair in a sky blue shirt and black pants walked over, placing his hands on Emily and giving her a kiss on her cheek.

"Hi love, this my new neighbor Psalm" she smiled. "Psalm my boyfriend Adams "

Psalm felt a twitch of pain, it was no secret he was attracted to her but she was in a relationship probably a committed one. They fit together, a classic lady and a classic guy with an ironed shirt instead of him who was wearing a hoodie and gray sweatpants.

"Nice to meet you man " he said introducing himself which Adam did in return. He was surprised how they included him in every conversation they had and he felt like he had known them for a long time.

"Are you seeing someone?" Adams asked.

"Nooo.. uh haven't found the right one yet" Psalm shrugged. He never bothered looking for one since his time was numbered. Maybe after everything, when he's done searching for the descendant of Ophis, maybe then he'll find love.

"You're in Reedshores, it's small but there's a lot of beautiful ladies surely you'll fall in love with one just like I did " Adams kissed Emily who just laughed at the gesture.

"Don't mind Adams, he's a bit talkative. We will be on our way now, if you need anything please don't hesitate to come over " She stepped in front of him and gave him a kiss on both sides of his cheeks before leaving with Adams.

Emily likes her new neighbor, that's without a doubt. She was attracted to him, that's right, just a mere attraction. Looking at Adams she couldn't help to notice the difference between the both of them. Psalm was Hot and mysterious type but Adams was cute and an open book.

"Why are you looking at me like that? " Adams asked. She just smiled and placed her lips on his. He was not perfect or hot like Psalm but he was perfect for her or so she thought.

"I'm going to need more of those when we get back" Emily chuckled, placing her hands on his cheeks.

"You'll get more than that " She kissed him again which he reciprocated, wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulled her closer to him.

"I love you Emily Sanchez" he muttered in between the kisses.

"I know, " She smiled. Maybe she loved him, maybe she didn't. But at this point she didn't care, all she cared about was spending the night with her lover, doing all sorts of weird stuff.
