The demon faltered just long enough for Xero to blast him in the face. The hit did some serious damage, but it also broke my spell. I tried again.
“Stop,” I ordered, pulling on the last dregs of my persuasive energy. God, I’m so fucking low. It’s like sucking on the dregs of a milkshake. “Sleep.”
Again, it barely made him falter. He didn’t seem to know what was affecting him yet, but I couldn’t hold on to him for longer than a few seconds. Xero attacked, but he was almost immediately pinned down again.
“Here.”
I turned toward Kai’s voice just in time for him to haul me toward him, pressing me flush against his body as he kissed me hard.
Jesus. It can’t be healthy to go from mortal terror to panty-soaking arousal and back in the space of a few seconds like this.
But such was the life of a succubus, I guessed.
For just a split second, my hands latched onto Kai’s shoulders, holding on desperately as his kiss made my pulse spike and my pussy clench.
And then we broke apart, and the battle came rushing back in.
We both turned toward the demon pinning down Xero. Kai jumped on the demon’s back as I summoned my persuasion again, fueling it with my newly boosted power.
“Relax,” I told the demon, soothing energy infusing my voice. “You’re so sleepy.”
He stopped throwing fireballs at Xero and trying to buck the vampire off his back. Then his eyes rolled up in his head, and his knees buckled.
Kai tore the demon’s throat out before his unconscious head hit the ground. Xero gave a very brief, breathless smile of thanks before gesturing behind us.
All of the students’ energies had converged on the massive spider thing, but it wasn’t enough. Everyone was tapped out. Weak energy balls exploded harmlessly off of its exoskeleton, and tired red flames slid uselessly off of its skin. It paid its attackers no attention. It was too busy pounding on the double doors at the entrance of the school.
“It’s trying to break through!” I called as I started to run. “We have to stop it!”
“How?” Jayce was at my side now, sounding exhausted even with his echoing hellhound voice. His hellhound form was large, bigger than a Great Dane, and wisps of smoke and fire seemed to flicker on his coat, like embers from a fire that’d just been extinguished. “We’ve been at that thing this whole time. It won’t fucking die!”
“The underside!” Xero shouted. “It’s weakest there!”
“Attack it from beneath!” My shout, powered up as I was, couldn’t cut through the chaos surrounding the spider’s legs. Closer, I had to be closer.
Bones crunched under my feet as I ran, and I tried not to look at what the squishy bits were. As long as whatever monster they belonged to were dead, I didn’t have time to care. Xero shoved a path through the crowd, shouting his instruction as he went.
“Attack the underside! The underside!”
People were understandably reluctant to get between the sharp, spiky spider’s legs. His words were having no effect.
With an extra burst of speed, I caught up to the muscled fire demon, grabbing his arm to get his attention. “We need to get through to them. Put me on your shoulders.”
He lifted me up without hesitation, and I straddled his neck from behind as his large hands held my thighs to steady me. The contact, even through clothes, gave me a power boost.
“Get underneath him,” I persuaded, keeping my voice calm and soothing, even as adrenaline roared through my veins. I raised my voice as much as I could without shouting, forcing the persuasion through the words. “Attack from beneath!”
So many people rushed to do as I said that the spider began to topple.
Xero moved toward the fray with long strides, tightening his grip to keep me stabilized. I was pressed so closely to him that my clit found friction against the back of his neck with each heavy footstep he took.
Oh, fuck. Does he know he’s doing that?
Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, it put me back in that place where I straddled the line between battle frenzy and sex, and more power filled me up like a balloon.
“Push him over. That’s good. Push him over!”
I was sending out orders and pulsing with pleasure all at once. If we survived this, I was going to have to thank the fire demon—thoroughly.
