“I’m just gonna rest my eyes for a second,” even I could tell my words were starting to slur from fatigue.

“Hush, sleep,” Lilith bent down to press a kiss to my lips. It felt like someone had reached inside my mind and turned off the lights.

I was out before the argument between the two roommates even got going.

Chapter 10

Sunlight streamed in through a crack in the blinds. I groaned and tried to roll over to avoid the assault on my groggy mind. Halfway through my turn I hit something warm.

“Wha?” I reached out with my free hand and felt around. What I grabbed was undoubtedly a boob.

My eyes snapped open, and I found myself staring into a pair of emeralds. “Hi,” Lilith yawned, and stretched out like a cat.

I scrambled backwards and fell off the side of the twin bed. The bed’s the academy provided were not meant to be used by two people, and I was pretty sure that was on purpose. When parents paid forty grand to have their kids go here, the last thing they wanted to worry about was teen pregnancy.

“What . . . how . . . when . . .?” I stumbled over my words as I looked around the room.

On the opposite side of the room, my eyeballs zeroed in on a large pair of dwarf tits that were sitting like twin mountains on top of the other bed. Despite my abrupt awakening, the roommate – Dani I remembered Lilith calling her – was still asleep.

“Calm yourself,” Lilith held out her hands in a non-threatening gesture. She was fully clothed, which I wasn’t sure how I felt about. Afterall, who got in bed with a succubus and didn’t fuck them. “All is well,” she continued to try and soothe me.

I looked myself over. My pants were still on. I didn’t have on a shirt, but there were towels wrapped around me and . . . “Oh fuck,” the night’s events rushed back with a vengeance.

“You did indeed fuck,” Lilith got up and headed for her dresser. “When I walked in, that bitch had you right where she wanted you.”

I rubbed my eyes hard and shook my head to clear the vivid image of Chloe stabbing me with a glamour blade. “How could . . .?”

“How could Aveena order a hit on you?” Lilith finished the question for me. “She’s a Fae noble. She feels she can do anything.” That was a shitty reason, but you didn’t need a good one when you were at Aveena’s level. “My guess is that she had one of her changelings call her pet nymph and had her drive out right after you offended her. That way, it won’t trace back to her, and all her people will be bound to silence by their oaths of fealty.”

Lilith grabbed a purse out of her dresser and opened it. “Chloe McKenna, a Junior at Boston College. She’s here on a student Visa from the Faerie Realm to study human art,” Lilith rattled off.

“At least she didn’t lie to me,” it was small consolation after taking a dagger to the chest.

Lilith put the purse down and advanced on me. “No,” I scrambled backward across the hardwood. “Stay back.” My yells finally woke up Dani.

“Shut the fuck up,” she grumbled as she rolled over away from us. “You better not be eye-ballin’ me, human,” she added.

It was too late for that, but Lilith had stopped when I ordered her to. Although, she did look amused by my reaction. The smug look on her face pissed me off.

“I know I should thank you for saving my life and everything, but you did some weird shit before I nearly got shish-kabobbed. Remember?” I gave her a hard look. “The janitor’s closet.”

“Oh yeah,” she caught on. “I wanted to check something out. I told you that,” she sounded completely innocent.

“You threw me in a closet and proceeded to blow my mind alongside my dick,” I shot back. “You put my semen in a fucking beaker for your little experiments. That’s fucked up!”

“Will you two just fuck already and get it over with,” Dani groaned.

“Shut up!” Lilith joined me in shouting her down.

“Cam,” Lilith kept up her neutral tone and casual demeanor. “I will admit that I wanted to test out your semen.”

“There!” I yelled in triumph. “I have some sort of super cum that you and your succubus cabal were going to milk from me for the rest of my life.” When I heard it coming out of my mouth, it sounded a little crazy; but I believed it with every fiber of my being.

Unfortunately, both Dani and Lilith thought it was complete and utter nonsense, and their laughing just pissed me off more.

“I’m sorry, Cam,” Lilith replied once she got herself under control. “Really, I am,” she schooled her features when she saw the rage on my face. “But what do you actually know about succubae?”

“I know you feed off sexual energy, and . . . and . . . you conjure fire swords and have telekinesis,” I remembered proudly. “And . . .” I sat there with my mouth hanging open, unable to name anything else.

“Partially correct,” Lilith inched a little closer, like I was a stray dog she was trying to coax onto a leash. “I’m not looking to turn you into a human cow, Cam. I want you for my harem.”

“Harem?” my mouth remained open in surprise.

“Yes. Do you know what a harem is?” she asked, as she took a seat in front of me.

Of course I knew what a harem was. Every guy did. It was an eastern practice where a dude got a bunch of hotties to bang all the time. Usually sultans or princes in the Middle East had them.

“That
