the building was a second away from catching fire. A green inferno stared down Xamira, and the imp was doing her best not to cower.

“Aunt Lilith, I . . .” she never finished. Once second, she was trying to explain, and the next she rocketed back into the far wall. She hit with a crunch, and slid down limply to land in a heap.

With a single thought, Lilith had knocked her the fuck out. I was suddenly very afraid as the succubus advanced on me. Her chest heaved in anger, and despite the situation, my dick had a brain all its own. It rose up to meet her, and sent a surge of pain through me. A thin ribbon of cum shone green as her eyes locked on me. She stood over me, her eyes still burning with other-worldly light, but her breathing looked under control.

I could practically hear her mental commands to calm down and breathe. The fire in her eyes winked out to show her normal emerald irises. She bent down, and dipped a finger in the stomach pancake I’d made. She brought it up to her lips and sucked it down.

“Gods that’s good,” her legs shook beneath her just like Xamira’s had when I fucked her to the point I nearly broke my dick. Lilith’s eyes met mine, and the anger was gone. “This wasn’t your fault,” she explained, as she started cleaning me up. My spunk was deposited in another specimen jar she produced from her sub-space pocket, and she licked her fingers clean with a look of pure bliss on her face.

“Like I told you back when we talked over your contract, succubae are a little territorial about their harem; especially their First. For some reason, Xamira unleased a massive amount of lust on you and wiped away all your inhibitions.”

“So that’s what that was,” the lightheaded, carefree, Xamira is the only thing in the world that matters and I must fuck her feeling; that made sense.

“I’ll question her when she wakes up,” Lilith shot a glare at the imp, who still hadn’t moved. “I broke her spine, so it should be a day or so. You had her fully charged up, so that will speed things along,” Lilith’s eyes twinkled with desire, but she didn’t act on it despite my cock wanting her too.

“Broke her spine?” I gulped. I didn’t know if I was more impressed by the power of Lilith’s telekinetic burst, or that Xamira would be completely healed from a near-lethal attack in a day.

I tried to think back to before the fuckfest, but everything about the training session felt dull and boring in comparison. “We were fighting,” I remembered. “She was winning, and it think I surprised her. She punched me, and the next thing I knew,” I pointed to my bruised dick.

“It’s possible it was an instinctual reaction to a threat,” Lilith nodded, but she still didn’t look upset about nearly killing her niece. “Xamira is half succubus, and one of our more potent attacks is to literally make anything unable to resist us. Why fight someone if I can put them in thrall of me, and have them slit their own throat.”

I gulped, and she must have seen my unease. “Don’t worry, Cam. You’re mine, and I have promised to protect you.”

“So did Xamira, and look at her,” I spared one look at the broken imp; still naked, with everything hanging out for anyone to see if they walked in.

“Xander will take care of her, and Dani will step in to train you tomorrow. You need to practice your sword work. We’re running out of time.

I didn’t want to look at my phone’s calendar. December was right around the corner, and the fight would happen a few days before Christmas. If I lived, that would be the best Christmas gift a guy could ask for.

Chapter 23

I didn’t know it was possible to breakout in an instantaneous, full-body, cold sweat. I’d never been so afraid. There was nothing in this life, or the next, that was so utterly terrifying to a man as nearly having his dick cut off.

“What the fuck, Dani?” I came out of a roll and dropped my sword. A shallow, red line appeared on my inner thigh and a trickle of blood seeped out.

“Shit, my bad,” the dwarf looked properly apologetic, but it didn’t help.

“Damn right it’s your bad,” I snapped back. “The ghost of my dick would haunt you till your dying day, which wouldn’t be long once Lilith heard about it.”

Now the dwarf’s face paled. She’d seen what had happened to someone else fucking me without her permission. If she removed my priceless tool, the twig above my golden berries, the thunder junk that the cabal was going through a lot of effort to protect . . . I didn’t want to say someone would definitely murder her ass, but my ego felt that level of punishment was appropriate.

“You’re right,” she sighed and slid her sword into its scabbard. “Let’s take five.”

It was Thanksgiving break, and while turkey day was a few days behind us, the school grounds were still virtually empty. With the threat against my adoptive parents’ lives still hanging over me, I didn’t make the quick ten-mile drive home. Instead, I decided to get in more practice with Dani.

None of the cabal or Fae had taken a holiday. I saw the changelings occasionally, but the truce was holding. The underlings didn’t care much for all the blood feud shit, they just wanted their bosses to be happy and move on so more of them wouldn’t die. Chloe’s death had been a bit of a shock to them.

“High school is getting way too Game of Thrones for my comfort,” I plopped down on the gym mat and caught the water Dani tossed at me.

Since the incident, which
