CHAPTER 13
Stryga
I carried the demon on the way back to the house. We were all quiet as we made the way there. The demon weighed nothing. I almost forgot I was carrying him at some point.
Gregori had ruled that we would accept him as Angieâs other mate and, at first, I raged. Dark whispers in the back of my mind wanted me to hate him. But I couldnât.
After thinking about it, it made sense. We couldnât protect her during the daytime, and she needed that protection.
She liked to go off and do her own thing, despite our warnings. Although Gregoriâs spanking may have stopped that a bit.
Plus, Enzo wasnât bad to look at. I wanted to mess with his tail, but I refrained. I wasnât Ru. Which was why I was carrying him and not Ru. That lug would probably mess with the demon by dropping him.
Then it would take us forever to get home. Ru had no sense of time or urgency. Or many manners for what was acceptable in mixed company.
âI know you may not like me,â the demon looked up at me, âI donât mean your pack harm.â
I looked down at him. âI know that.â
âI hope that we can get along. For Angieâs sake.â His tail twitched. âAll I want is for her to smile.â
Now I couldnât hate him on principle. Angie came first for all of us. Just adjusting to a demon in our family was going to take time. Weâd spent centuries fighting his kind. They had killed my family. It would take time before I fully trusted him.
Bartholomew not ripping his nuts off was a good sign as well. The cat could sense the intentions of individuals and wouldnât hesitate to maul anyone who would harm Cora or his friends. And apparently Angie was his friend now.
Landing on the flat roof, I set Enzo down softly before dropping down next to him. I turned to talk to him when there was a blur and Ru tackled the demon to the ground, their tails winding together.
Sighing, I crossed my arms.
âReally, Ru?â
The smaller gargoyle sat up, his wings spread out. He grinned down at Enzo. âWe have a few hours before bed, so why donât we get to know each other?â
Enzo grunted, placing his claws on Ruâs thighs that straddled him. He winced as Ru shifted and I watched as their tails tangled together in a mix of twisting movements. If his tail was like ours, Ru was teasing him. I shifted, my own tail throbbed, making me want to join theirs.
âWhat did you have in mind?â Enzo growled softly, and I watched in interest as his fangs lengthened.
Ru raked his nails down Enzoâs defined chest. âDid you know our Angie likes watching us play with each other?â
Pure, raw lust burst through Enzoâs eyes, making them glow in the dim light of the room.
Angieâs scent reached my nostrils, along with Gregori and Baroque, as they landed on the roof beside us. Gregori flew slower when he had Angie in tow.
