Chapter 50
When he got home that early evening Neil sat down in the kitchen with his huge coffee cup and stared off into the great unknown, thinking. He knew what had to be done, but it was getting the nerve to do so. He had gone over spells and enchantments he knew how to banish the next demon, it just bothered him that the one who hurt him was the bait. He needed to text the ex, lie to her. Even though she deserved it and much worse, he wasn't that kind of a guy. He didn't like being that vindictive. He didn't like to screw people over, no matter what the reason.
Reminding himself it was for the good of humanity, not revenge that fueled this dishonest act he would be putting on. Well maybe a small portion of what he was going to do was revenge but mostly it was for the good of every mortal on earth. He needed to think about what to say to her. How did he know she would take the bait and come over? He gulped down the contents of his cup, before it had gotten any colder than luke warm. He looked over the spell again, knowing it backwards and forwards. He had even read it upside down. He could have read it in his sleep if it had been a requirement.
He had the candles ready to go, meditated for over an hour. Everything ready. He grabbed holy water from another priest and as the spell called for it thirteen grains of salt added to it. Getting up, pouring another cup of strong black coffee he procrastinated a bit longer. He didn't like to use people, but she had used him in the worst way. Then sipping the drink quickly, the demon hunter took the plunge and sent her a message.
can you stop over, I need you.
Then forcing his nerves, he waited for a reply.
Are you sorry? Jenna texted back.
Yes, please come over. I want to make it up to you. I can't live without you.
A few seconds passed by before she replied again.
You're cute when you beg. I'll be on my way soon. I love you.
I love you too, can't wait.
He rolled his eyes at the smart phone. He couldn't believe it worked. Trying not to lose his nerve, he went over the spell again before hiding the book. He had to do this and knew it was now or never. He tried to keep from acting nervous, repeating how this would play out in his mind until she knocked on his door fifteen minutes later.
He took a deep breath, then opened the door.
"Thank you for coming. I'm so sorry." He tried groveling, even faking it was easy.
"Anything for you." She replied.
He grabbed her and began to kiss her passionately. He walked her to the couch and then lit the black candles he had set up and dimmed the lights. He was going to hate himself for it but he had no choice in the matter. He began to massage her, kissing the nape of her neck. He kept reminding himself that he had to go through with this, no matter how much he wanted to forget he ever met her.
He grabbed her butt giving it a tight squeeze.
She moaned his name and began to rip his shirt off.
Un hooking her bra, he began to fondle her until they were both driven by the carnal urges of lust. She was ready to climb on top of his wanting body when he began to speak in a strange ancient dialect that she half way recognized, once it was far too late.
Neil then called out the demon of lust in it's own language, as it left her body. He quickly dowsed the demon with the salt infused holy water and started to chant, she screamed. He chanted over the sound of it as if she weren't even there.
He kept chanting until the lust demon had began to sizzle and cook as Neil banished it from returning to the human world. As he did this a black liquid hole opened up and a black slick arm reached through, dragging Jenna back into the underworld, where she truly belonged. Neil grabbed the side of his couch and leaped over it.
He didn't know if it was an upper level demon that had snatched her or Lucifer himself, but he didn't want to be close enough to find out. After the hole closed up and he heard a spark that sounded like lightning he slowly rose up from behind the couch. There was nothing left but the ashes of the demon and that horrid smell like before. He swept up the remains of the lust demon and blew it outside the living room window.
