CHAPTER ELEVEN
Another day had come and gone. After going over the map several times, it became clear that Kansas City was going to be one hell of an adventure. There were a lot of towns to stop by along the way, supplies to get and places to explore. I had more to learn about Ally and her ways on the side. Speaking of, sheâs sleeping right now â off in the dream space. Iâm not a demon, so I canât really say how peculiar that is nor do I care. Itâs post-apocalyptic America, why bother? Weâve been so busy fighting the walking corpses and scrounging for food, it didnât really cross my mind.
Now itâs me and Jill, driving north.
âYou think,â Jill says, âthat they dream like us?â
âWhat do you mean?â
Jill shrugs, a gentle breeze kissing her face as we pass more abandoned businesses. âI mean, you said she goes to sleep, right?â
âI donât really know what it is she does, I just know when she needs to rest, her physical body just kind of goes poof.â
âSo, sheâs sleeping, right?â
I shrug. âPhysically. Sometimes she can whisper to me.â
âStrange,â she says, âI wonder how she pulls that off.â
âNo idea, but when she comes around again, we should ask her,â I say.
Jill bites her lip. âSo like⦠sheâs a sex demon, right?â
I flush red. âUh⦠yeah. How did you know that?â
âI mean look at her. And I heard you guys,â Jill says, âso I was curious.â
âYeah, sheâs a succubus. Thatâs what she says,â I grab one of the breakfast pastries from the glove-box I set aside, opening it to take a bite. Mm. Apple.
Jill nods. âShe gets your energy, right, when you guys screw?â
I about spit out my food. âJill, jeez.â
âWhat else do you want me to say. When you fuck?â
âI, er-â
She bursts out laughing. âWhat, did I embarrass you? What are you, a little boy? Grow up, Dex.â
Good lord, Jill, do you have to be so blunt about everything? I take another bite, trying to play it off. âHa ha, very funny,â I roll my eyes sarcastically, âgood one. Do I ask about your sex life?â
She laughs again. âWhat sex life?â
âLook, it doesnât matter. The world is over, sex doesnât matter.â
She shrugs. âThatâs when youâre supposed to do it like rabbits. So answer my question.â
Jillâs really pushy about this for some reason. âYeah, apparently. And yes, she gets energy from me that way, at least the most of it. She can feed of âawakeâ energy. Like, being conscious, but she hasnât explained why sheâs able to do that on a whim, then go and use my⦠um, romantic⦠energy...â
She scratches her chin. âI wonder if that means you guys are in a relationship?â
âOh come on, Allyâs a sex demon.â
âYeah, but I bet youâre bound somehow. Thatâs how those things work. Havenât ever watched a scary movie? You summon a demon, you make a pact, or when you meet one, you have to bind yourself in someway.â
âWell, Iâll get clarification on that,â I say.
