Page 134 of Demon Heart: The Complete Series

I climaxed in an incredible explosion, painting my chest in hot jets of cum as my eyes rolled back, my hold on myself surrendering to the incredible, riotous sensation.

“Fuck!” I bellowed, releasing his arse, clawing at the bed sheets.

I wouldn’t stop coming, so much pent-up semen shooting out of me, like a dormant volcano happy to get its lava on again.

“Holy shit!”

Xavier kept thrusting, growling his way to climax.

I grabbed his face, holding his gaze to mine, reveling in the pants, the incredible heat, his beads of sweat splashing my cheeks.

“Roman…” He spoke as his cock throbbed and unleased its own volcanic eruption into me, filling me up to the brim.

I loved having every part of Xavier inside me—cock, cum, saliva, fingers, and his beautiful heart.

Spent, my beautiful demon collapsed on top of me, burying his face into the crook of my neck.

I held him, more cum shooting out of his shaft as he stayed inside me.

“There’s so much of it,” he mumbled.

I kissed his damp hair, happy to remain connected like this for the rest of the night.

“You’re amazing,” I told him, tracing a finger across the scar on his chest.

“So are you.”

We kissed and I rested my head on his chest, enveloped in his cinnamon-violet scent.

This blue-and-white room was perfect, the bed big enough for several bodies, and for rolling around on. Man, there would definitely be a lot more rolling going on from here on out.

The drapes billowed in the warm sea breeze coming off the Mediterranean, everything about this space so special, so romantic.

The three vases of red roses Xavier bought me yesterday helped.

“I could stay right here forever,” I said softly.

He stroked my spine. “Can I hold you to that?”

“Absolutely.”

My cum wasn’t silver after all, but still made a mess on my chest. We hit the shower after peeling ourselves off the bed, cleaning up, making out, then jerking each other off until the water went cold.

Fresh as daisies, we got back into bed for snuggles. In a little while, we’d be… Well, we’d see. Maybe I’d be the top this time.

The bedroom door crashed open. I yelped, springing off the bed at the same time as Xavier, a thin jet of silk firing out of my fingertips. It splattered on the wall beside the door, narrowly missing the naked man standing there.

“What the fuck!” I bellowed.

“Roman…”

“What bullshit is this?” Things were sailing at too much of a happy pace. I just knew someone would come along to shit on it.

“Roman…” Xavier repeated.

“You fired a spider web at me?” the intruder said.

Only, he wasn’t an intruder. He was Darcy. A very naked, human Darcy.

“Huh?” I blinked at him, waiting for the rest of me to catch up. “You’re…”

He smiled. “Human.”

“Huh?” Was I dreaming?

Darcy came into the room, gesticulating. “I was sleeping on the beach, minding my own business, dreaming about cookies. And the next thing I knew, I’m waking up in this body.” He slapped his chest. “In my body, Roman.” He laughed, jumping up and down.

My brain misfired, struggling to process this. “You’re…human?”

He nodded, stroking his chin. “I think it’s down to the change in Synth. You know how spells are disappearing? Well, that must be it. The essence of the spell that turned me no longer exists. Gone.” He clapped his hands once.

I felt my lips spread upward, my brain finally catching up. “You’re human. You’re actually human.” I burst into laughter, then ran at him.

“I’m human!”

We hugged and danced in a circle. I wanted to cry and sing like I was in the climactic scene of a musical.

My bestie got to live a longer life. He got to be a man again. There weren’t enough yays in the world to do this happiness justice.

We stopped dancing, still hugging.

He went rigid.

“What’s wrong?” I asked.

“You’re naked.”

“Oh. Yeah. So are you.”

He sniffed. “Have you just been shagging?”

“Yeah.”

He broke free of me, shaking his hands, hopping from foot to foot. “Yuck! What are you doing hugging when you’re covered in sex juices? Christ!”

“I’m not!” I protested. “And sex juices? Seriously?”

“You should have seen him ten minutes ago,” Xavier said mischievously.

Darcy retched, his cheeks bright red. “I’m out of here.” He turned, striding toward the door. Then paused to examine the splatter of silk. “Wait. You did this, Roman?”

“I did. We’ll talk about it in a bit.”

“I think I need a drink. A big drink. I can have big boozy drinks again.” He skipped out of the room, embarrassment forgotten.

I ran to Xavier, getting another round of hugging. “Can you believe it?”

He picked me up, spinning me around, laughing with me.

“He’s human. He’s human. He’s human.” Was this real? Did we all really get to have this happy ending?

Here came the nibble of guilt as it always did.

Xavier stopped spinning me, cupping my face. “We must join him for that big drink.”

“Amen.” I slapped the guilt away. Let it come back later. Whatever. This was the best surprise ever.

“Shortly,” he purred.

I giggled, ready for more sweaty action.

Everything that transpired really did seem like fate connecting things with crazy threads. As if we were meant to walk through the fire in order to come out reborn into this happiness.

I just had to get there in my journey of acceptance, of allowing myself to move on from my old life. To redeem myself.

All in good time.

All with these guys by my side.

We kissed and returned to bed, holding each other until the stars came out.

Back at the beach, the three of us drank cocktails with Queen Piper, enjoying every twinkle in the night sky while in full celebration mode, drunk on booze and joy.

Whatever the future held, bring it on. I’d face every moment with my head held high and strength in my new heart. The world was my oyster because I had an abundance of the best word to ever grace a crossword grid.

One across, four letters.

Clue 1: Xavier is the ___ of my life.

Clue 2: I ___ my bestie to the stars and back.

Answer: Love.

Man, did I have so much love.

The End
