Tempting.
So temping, like the kid to candy.
Lucy could only look at the black book in hand as she stood facing the closed door of the witch shop
Why did she accept it? Was she under a spell to do everything the girl asks her to?
"No, no...I should give it back. This doesn't sit right with me" Lucy says, taking a step forward and looking up but gasps
The shop was not there, it was like it never existed. The warmth of the place gone and replaced with the cold chills that ran down her spine
A drop of water falls on her head, then another and another until she was running to close the door of her apartment
Lucy looks at the book in hand, still dry and warm even after all that pouring rain. Her heart thumps hard on her chest
"A rain in the middle of winter? Did I enter a different world when i stepped outside?" she closes her eyes, taking a deep breath
Minutes later, she followed the steps written in the book. She just choose a random page with a long spell which she assumed was to call the strongest demon that had made her draw a huge circle and candles surrounding all of her attic, the room resonating with the sound of rain
"Okay, Latin...huh? Damn should've concentrated more on how to say them than writing them"
Lucy curses more, before she started to spell them out with the pronouncing getting better with every line
"Fuck, why this getting hard as it goes"
She starts the spell again, and again. Until she reached the end of the page, she begins again getting a hang of it. Nothing was happening, no black smoke that appears like in the movies, no sounds except the rain to know if there was another presence in the place, it was the same as it was for the past hour
"Maybe I'm wrong, haha...you've gone nuts Lucy, you stupid fuck" she laughs dryly, brushing her hair away from her face
"Mavis, your annoying but I guess you will be worth for it"
Lucy freezes to the core, she could hear the thumping of her heart and the chills that run down her entire body
The voice chuckled from behind her "saying that spell over and over" he steps into the circle she sat in "did you even realize who you were calling for?"
Lucy turns head, now able to see the demon dressed in black silks that were drapedd over his body. The hair slick back, fangs that were on displace as his smile got wider and wider with each step he took
Before she could turn completely, the demon appeared before her, sinking to level holding her chin
"Name?"
Lucy gulped down, his tanned upper body full on display and his firewood scent so strong she could choke
"L-Lucy"
"Mhm...and the reason for summoning?"
"A wish"
The demon let's his eyes travel down her body, the white cotton dress tightly hug on her body as he licked his lips eyes glistening with hunger
"A wi-wish to heal my mo-mother"
Right after her sentence finished, she felt dizzy and hot. Not just her body but the room, the floor and his touch everything scorching hot
The sweat trickling down her face, the demon staring at her with a side smirk brining his face closer to hers. So weak, mortals were interesting creatures and it always fascinated him.
Lucy's eyes widen in surprise, her body shaking from the fear but not a second late, their lips meet.
Softly, warm lips meeting her cold plum ones.
The demon backs away, thumb brushing over her lips as he licks his own
"I've sealed the deal, we are connected now my precious" his husky voice gives Lucy a shiver.
"Will she h-heal?"
"As good as a horse, but are you really wiling to sell your soul?"
Her eyes widen, of course how could she forget. The witch did warn her of the price "I'mㅡi don't, I'm sorry...I haven't thought this through, I'm so sorryㅡ"
"I'll give you time, stop rambling" he shuts her off "Call my name when you are ready"
He stands up, the chocolate abs on display for her as he looks at her stoic
"What shouldㅡno, how should I call you?"
"By my name, darling" Natsu tilts his head, the smirk crawling back on his face
"Na-name?"
"Natsu"
And he was gone.
