There's nothing harder than explaining to an ordinary human being that the world they live in, the one they think they know, is just a tiny fragnt of reality—a reality I barely understand myself.
Right after I cum inside little lania and we get dressed again, Elaine bursts out from behind the trees. She cries and screams like soone possessed, shouting nonsense and waving her arms wildly.
My heart breaks seeing her like that—like she just escaped from a madhouse. Still, I can't really bla her. lania, on the other hand, stays completely unfazed. She isn't even surprised to see her cousin. lania might be a first-class slut, but she's anything but stupid. Of course she knew Elaine would be around, since she was aware of this eting.
Now that I think about it… why did lania tell her? If she had made up any other excuse, Elaine wouldn't have been so worried. She definitely wouldn't have followed her here, risking interrupting her at the worst possible mont—sothing that almost happened if I hadn't stopped her.
Anyway, that's not what matters now. There are bigger problems, like Elaine's outburst.
lania glares at her.
«Shut your mouth. You're annoying , and I can't stand being bothered after I've finished fucking,» she hisses.
But Elaine doesn't calm down. If anything, those words throw fuel on the fire.
«DEMONS? VAMPIRES?! I'M NOT SO KID WHO BELIEVES IN THAT CRAP! THE TRUTH IS YOU'RE A LITTLE WHORE AND REN IS A PERVERT! HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON, HUH?! SINCE THE TI HE STAYED OVER AT OUR PLACE?! I CAN'T LEAVE YOU ALONE WITH ANY WOMAN WITHOUT YOU TRYING TO SCREW HER! YOU'RE SICK, REN! GET HELP!»
Ah… so now it's my fault? If it weren't for , lania would still be down at the docks getting railed by the entire US Marines! I've been sacrificing myself, giving her my dick whenever she wants so she doesn't end up with shady people—and this is the thanks I get? Altruism never pays…
«I… I…» Elaine sobs, red as a tomato, breathing hard. «I'M GOING TO TELL AUNT EVERYTHING! YOU'LL BE LOCKED IN YOUR ROOM UNTIL YOU TURN EIGHTEEN! FROM NOW ON, I'LL PERSONALLY TAKE YOU TO MIDDLE SCHOOL AND PICK YOU UP EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY! AND YOU, REN, IF YOU DARE GO NEAR HER AGAIN, I SWEAR I'LL CALL THE POLICE!»
«Now you've really pissed off,» lania growls. Her pupils glow with a sinister purple light. «Shut that damn mouth and sit down!»
At once, Elaine's eyes mirror that sa glow. She goes quiet instantly, sits calmly on the bench where lania and Tyler had been just before.
lania stands in front of her, wrapped in a faint violet aura.
«lania, what the hell did you do to her?! Why is she so blank now?!» I snap, not hiding my worry.
«Relax. I only sedated her enough to shut her up and make her listen. Succubi can manipulate all emotions, not just the ones tied to sex. Sure, that's how I use my powers most of the ti, but that doesn't an I can't do more. I just turned her anger into apathy, that's all.» Her words calm a little—I doubt she'd ever hurt her own blood.
lania's attention shifts back to Elaine.
«What Ren told you is completely true. I'm a demon—a succubus, to be exact. And as such, I need sen to keep my strength. It may sound disgusting, but I couldn't care less. This is my nature. I'm not about to let so pathetic human judge , nor do I care if you understand .»
«A… demon…» Elaine repeats faintly, her tone flat and distant. «No… demons exist only in stories… you're not a demon, lania… this is all just an excuse for the filthy things I caught you doing…»
I let out a sigh of relief. Elaine is still conscious, able to understand what's being said. lania hasn't brainwashed her—she's just cald her down.
«How can you be so blind to reality?» lania mutters in disbelief. «My eyes are glowing purple… my body is glowing purple! A mont ago you were screaming so loud they probably heard you in Washington, and now you're sitting here quiet as a whipped dog. How do you think that happened? Clearly your mind is making excuses to deny the truth—so I'll give you proof you can't ignore!»
As soon as she says that, massive bat-like wings spread from her back. Each wing stretches over a ter wide, the mbranes shining with the sa purple glow.
It's not the first ti I've seen lania in her true succubus form, but my body still trembles instinctively, rembering that night at the docks when she knocked flat with a single wave of energy. The aura she gives off now is even stronger than back then. It's terrifying.
The fear in Elaine's eyes cuts through even her mask of apathy. She doesn't speak, doesn't move. Her eyes bulge wide open, her irises trembling and darting as if she were in the middle of a seizure.
If lania in this form terrifies , a vampire… I can't imagine what Elaine feels. It's fear beyond comprehension, sothing no human mind should endure—yet she's forced to face it against her will.
Shit… I just hope Elaine doesn't break completely from this trauma. But it's necessary. She can't stay ignorant now that lania's thirteenth birthday is right around the corner. Knowing the truth, Elaine might stop her cousin from leaving her family to run off to N'Raeth with her biological father. And honestly, it's exhausting hiding my vampire nature from soone I spend so much ti with. At least now, maybe I can finally be myself around her too.
With the sa suddenness, the wings and the purple glow vanish. lania returns to her usual appearance—a particularly developed twelve-year-old girl. The apathy binding Elaine fades too. Still, no scream escapes her lips. She stays frozen, then collapses to the ground unconscious.
