74 Chapter 74: Eve’s the Culprit

On social media, Jasmin and Emy saw the sudden death of a TV star. When Jasmin saw the way his favorite artist was looking, he put his hand over his mouth. Its whole body, including its flesh, was dry. The news story’s caption is also funny. Because the man died in a hotel smiling and naked. The police looked into what happened, but no one knew who went with him into the hotel.

“It’s sad to hear the news,” Jasmin said while looking very sad. “Sky is too young to die. He was still at his most popular, and then... Will he just die like this?”

Emy said nothing because she knew that Jasmin and Avery liked the handsome actor. It has also been in many movies and commercials. Even its ads make a lot of money, so, sadly, it died this way.

“Looks like someone you both know died,” Reed said something as he brought them a cup of coffee.

Emy looked over at Reed. “Yes, someone died.”

Reed made a face. “Jasmin, I have to tell you, you can’t have a leave of absence, because Avery isn’t here.”

When Emy laughed, Reed looked over at her. “What?”

“His favorite musician passed away. You might know Sky.”

“Your man still looks cute on film?”

.....

“Sir, he’s not just pretending to be cute, he’s really cute,” Jasmin said. “I know you’re handsome, but he’s cute, and that’s a big difference.”

Jasmin walked away from Emy and Reed. Reed just looked at Jasmin. “What is wrong with her?”

“Have patience. She’s hurt. She was one of his fans, you know. Anyway, have you seen Sky’s video?”

“What happened that killed him? He killed himself?”

Emy gave a headshake. She shows Reed a picture of Sky that was on social media before they took down it. All the other pictures of how her death looked have also been blurred, but Jasmin has a copy of the clear picture.

Reed took the phone from Emy. The man was dry, but it was clear from his face that he had died of happiness. Emy saw how Reed reacted.

“Did a demon do that?”

Reed gave Emy her phone back. “Get rid of that picture. You shouldn’t have something like that on your phone. Put up a picture of me with no clothes on to get you to work.”

Emy suddenly laughed. He was about to say that Reed was just kidding, but his face showed he wasn’t kidding.

“I’ll be right back to talk to someone. I’m just going to leave for a moment.” Reed gave Emy the cup of coffee, and then, suddenly, it was gone. Emy turned around to see if anyone had seen what Reed had done, but luckily, no one had.

Emy drank the coffee Reed left for her, and when Jasmin came out of the bathroom, she went to the pantry. The death of their favorite artist hit them hard. When Emy turned around to put the cup in her bag after washing it, Devin was standing there. When he suddenly turned, they were about to kiss. He also dropped the cup, which Devin picked up while he was holding her behind him.

“Looks like I surprised you...” Devin said.

Emy said, “It’s clear...” Devin looked at her for a moment, then gave her a small smile and let her go.

Devin walked over to the cup holder and put the cup he had caught there. “What do you want to do here? Are you okay?”

He looked at Emy. “Yes, look...” it surprised Emy when Devin pulled up her T-shirt out of the blue.

Even though surprised, she couldn’t help but look at what Devin did. Even though the wound is gone, there is still a scar. Emy’s finger touched Devin’s scar instead of her own. Devin watched Emy.

Devin said, “You can see my scars.”

Emy took her hand off of Devin’s body right away and turned away from the man. Devin went after him right away and stood in his way.

“Devin, I’m working...” Emy said.

“I don’t mean to bother you. Just tell me what you think of my scars. Do you see the wounds on Reed?”

“Why do you need Reed’s as well? You can just talk about yourself.”

Emy tried to open the pantry door, but Devin pulled her away and pushed her against the wall next to the door. He put his two hands on the wall between her head.

“Devin...”

Devin kept looking at Emy. Again, he had that strange feeling.

“Why do I feel this way every time I see you, talk to you, or even just touch your skin?” Devin asked. “Why... why do I always think about you? What sort of magic did you use on me?”

“Why do you have me on your mind?” Emy asked out of interest.

“Before, I could handle this, but that night...” Devin said.

“What night?”

“I had to save you that night, and Reed let me.....” Devin briefly bit his lower lip. “I kissed you.”

“W-what?” Emy asked in shock. “Did Reed...”

“Damn it!” Devin said something and then left Emy. He turned his back on Emy and held his head. After a while, he turned around and faced Emy again. “This has never happened before.”

Emy said nothing; she just looked at Devin, who looked very upset. “Look, Reed and I haven’t been friends since we were kids. It’s fine that he doesn’t trust me. We never disagree about something. We didn’t both like the same things.”

“I’m not a thing, Devin,” Emy said.

“I know...” Devin’s head was being held by his two hands. “Tell me. What’s the trick? Don’t just tell me what I’m feeling is love, because I shouldn’t feel love. I’m a demon.”

Emy suddenly remembered what Reed had said to her when they liked each other or when another man looked at her.

“The way you feel won’t be good for the three of us. Just put it out of your mind and pay attention to other people or things.” Amy said.

“So,” Devin said to Emy. “Am I... really in love with you?”

It surprised Eve to see Reed in her room when she came out of the bathroom. He was looking out the window while he stood by it. He had his hands in his pockets and was thinking hard. Reed didn’t even know she was getting close. She stood right beside Reed.

“Reed...”

Reed looked over at Eve. She had on a bathrobe that was thin and short. At that time, he could see her stiff n-pples, and because the dress was so short, he could see Eve’s p-ssy every time she moved. But, strangely, he couldn’t feel anything. It did not arouse him. Even the fresh smell of her doesn’t make him want to touch her. That’s Emy’s magic on him. He only wants Emy that’s why he can’t let anyone or anything took her away from him. She’s her queen, his precious gem.

“Are you looking for something?” Eve asked as she ran her finger along Reed’s lips. He has never tried those tastes, so when he sees Reed, he looks like he wants to eat them.

I think all the female demons he knows have already tasted Reed. That’s why it’s a big insult to her. He avoids her every time he attracts her, especially now that what he’s doing doesn’t seem to work.

‘It’s annoying that Emy seems to know what Reed needs. He didn’t even respond to anything I did,’ Eve thought.

Reed reached out and took Eve’s hand away from her face. “Let’s talk. Get dressed.”

Reed sat down on the couch in Eve’s room and turned his back on her. Eve smiled and took another step toward her closet. And since the sofa was facing the closet, Eve took off her robe so Reed could see her naked body. She looked at the man while she put the lotion on him. She bought the lotion after hearing from other models that it was good for the skin. Eve put her leg up over the table and let Reed see she was a woman.

While Reed was looking at Eve, he was also thinking about something else. Last night, that’s what happened. He knew that Emy’s eyes were special because she could see things that most people couldn’t. He hurt Maria when he got a knife to defend himself.

‘Should I doubt Maria? Should I believe Devin?’ Reed thought.

Eve hit Reed with a bottle of lotion, which made him lose his train of thought.

He was angry and said, “Damn it!”

“Why did you come here?” Eve said, annoyed.

Reed gave Eve the cream back. Eve used her black smoke to catch it right away.

“Why are you rude to me, but nice to Emy? You know you’re annoying, right?”

“Emy is my wife, and you are just...” Reed said. “A sister to me. So, I’m being rude to you.”

“Damn you, Reed.”

“Don’t curse me,” Reed said. “Tell me, were you involved in any way with the actor’s death in a hotel?”

Eve stopped looking at Reed. He was all dressed up and ready to leave. “Who’s the actor?”

Reed got up and moved toward him. “The man’s body was naked when he died. Even though his whole body is dry and he is smiling, his manhood is still standing tall, even though it is dry. No one else can do that but you.”

“And right off the bat, you’re saying that’s me? Reed, when you heard it, did you immediately think of me? Whoa, am I supposed to be flattered?”

“Stop making fun of me, Eve. I’m asking in the right way.”

“Yes, I killed him,” Eve said. “That’s what I have to do to make a living. Reed, you might have forgotten that I’m a succubus. I live in the lust of everyone.”

“You know what’s going on, right? You were very close to dying before.”

“What will you do if I die or go away from this world?” Eve asked. “I’m neither your sister Reed nor your wife, so don’t tell me to stop doing what I want to do.”

“Do you not see Eve? I protect you. That bastard wants to kill us. How many times have you and Devin been put in situations when things did not go as planned? Do you disagree?”

“You don’t have to look out for me,” he said. Eve said something, and then she quickly left Reed’s sight.
