“Today, we will be doing the telum ceremony. A ceremony where first year reapers are awarded a weapon for their journey of becoming Soul Reapers. As you know, souls’ power almost everything in the Shadow World, including the electricity in this school. It is a highly demanding job here, and you will have opportunities that not many have ever had.

“Now I expect the upperclassmen to be on their best behavior as they concentrate. One by one, the reapers will come up, shift into their demon form if they haven’t, and then they will reach for their weapon. The enhancement chips are there to enhance their powers. Most newcomers will not be strong enough to pull it out without the chips. Slowly, over the next few months, you will learn how to do that. But the chips will bring out your demon form…”

I get to come out? the demon in my head says.

Fuck. I swallow. Normally a reaper’s body is fused with a demon, which is a big difference. She’s a different person and I have no control over her when she takes over. My medicine stops her from coming out.

My heart picks up. Will you behave?

Maybe…

Then you don’t get to come out, Circe.

I hear her suck her teeth. I’ll behave, Asura… I promise. I never get to come out. I want to show them who we can be and who not to fuck with.

Just behave.

It was hard to keep her inside, but we have gotten to the point in our relationship that we understand that we can’t be mean to everyone and kill them because they were mean to us.
