the party

Dressed in a tiny black latex costume that didn’t hide anything, I curled my arm around Gaian’s and stepped onto the sidewalk that led to Maxine’s Halloween party. While Maxine might’ve been hosting, I hadn’t been to her home in over four years, and I was in awe.

Maxine lived alone in a house that her ancestors had passed down through the generations. Sitting on the outskirts of Durnbone, the gray stone house stood three stories tall against the foggy night. It was covered in cobwebs and fake spiders, blood and gore.

“Sina!” Maxine shouted as we approached the doorway, as if she had been waiting for us. She threw her arms around my shoulders and pulled me into the house. When she finally pulled away, she looked me up and down, her gaze lingering on my barely covered body. “Yes! You look so sexy!”

“Maxine!” I said, covering my breasts with my hands, not enjoying her sudden attention. “Can you lower your voice?”

The guys might’ve dressed me tonight, but I didn’t want the attention from any other species or people besides them. I had too much other shit to worry about than wandering eyes.

“No, bitch,” she said with a grin, shutting the door behind my four guys. “You’re sexy AF.”

My cheeks flushed as Calder grabbed my hand.

“Thanks for the invite, Maxine.”

I cut my gaze to him, knowing well that nobody had invited him or any of them. They’d all just decided to come once they figured out that Maxine had invited me over. They weren’t about to let me out of their sight, and after earlier, I didn’t want them to either.

“Come on,” Maxine said, pulling me through the crowd. “I want you to meet Xorgor.”

“Xorgor,” I repeated.

I had only seen her boyfriend a couple of times in passing. He seemed to stay out of the crowd and the drama in Durnbone, and I didn’t blame him. I didn’t want Maxine to be messed up in all the craziness. She’d already had a shit time, growing up, from bullies who joked about the scars from a werewolf attack on her chest.

Thankfully, growing up, Calder, Thayer, Darius, and Gaian had completely slaughtered the pack who had done this to her. Or at least, I thought they had because I had innocently asked the day after my sixteenth birthday to make things right, and the next day, she had found their leader’s head on her front steps.

Still, nobody looked at her the same for the rest of her time here. It pissed me off.

“Xorgor!” Maxine called, pushing through the crowd and into the back, where a group of demons hung out.

Thayer walked closer to me, snatching my hand out of Calder’s and growling at the demons who looked me up and down. “Don’t fucking look them in the eye, Pretty Bird. Don’t trust any one of these fuckers.”

A couple of moments later, a tall demon sidestepped around other rowdy guys. One half of his face was humanlike—a green eye, pale skin, and shaggy brown hair.
