Hoodwinked (The Demon Exchange Series Book 1) by Beth Hendrix (10)

10

We finally made it back to the hotel after stealing some beach towels from lord knows who. I am just glad we made it back without being arrested for public indecency. I was now fully clothed sitting on the bed watching Donovan and Draven pace in front of me. If they kept this up they were going to wear holes in the floor. If they didn't look so serious this would be extremely funny. Actually, the serious look gave them an alluring presence, but that could be from the fact that I still hadn’t come down from my orgasmic high.

After what felt like hours Donovan walked over to me and kneeled down beside the bed. "We need to tell the other guys what happened and see if we can do it again." He said, caressing my hand with his thumb. Wait. What? I was not gonna just have sex with them to prove that I could teleport or whatever the hell I had done. It would be so much fun though. Vita whispered into my head. Damn demon was gonna cause problems, I just knew it. Of course I would be the one stuck with another smartass in her head. I felt myself start to heat up. Uh oh, guess it was about to be fire time again. Damn men!

"Now you listen here. I will not just fuck y'all to see if I can transport us again. I can not believe you would suggest that. No matter how good it was. I will not be an experiment!" I could not believe he would say that. My hands started to spark as they moved while I spoke. Even though it may have been hard to stay pissed due to the fact that I would be so down to being with all four of them. However, with me not knowing what all I could do, I needed to be very careful with them. They may be supernaturals but that did not mean that I couldn't hurt them by accident and not even know how I had done it.

"I did not mean that. Damn it Gwen, calm your ass down before you set the place on fire!" Donovan yelled out at me. As soon as he said that, I felt myself calm down. I was going to have to work on not jumping to the worst conclusion with them, because so far every time they had proved me wrong. Which was gonna be harder done than said, because everyone I had ever dealt with eventually showed me the worst.

"Okay. Yeah, we should do that. We need to figure out what is going on so that I can learn to control it." I replied while scrubbing my hands over my face. Why did this have to happen to me? I just wanted to be normal again. I really had to stop worrying about it or I was going to get sucked down into a pit of depression and that was definitely not somewhere I wanted to be. So time to buck up and attempt to make the most of it. Everyone is dealt a shit hand sometimes. Mine’s just a lot shittier than I ever expected. At some point during my little mini episode Ethane and Barrett had come into the room. I guess I had been in my own head longer than I thought.

I listened as Draven updated the others about what had happened. Not gonna lie but I was waiting for the shame look because not even a few hours earlier I had messed around with Barrett. However, the look never came. Barrett eyes flicked over to me and I could see the promise that we would finish what we had started. What the hell was I thinking. I couldn't fuck around with three guys at the same time could I? Even though I really wanted a taste of Ethane too because damn he was just so yummy.

"Gwen, we need to figure out a way for you to teleport yourself again." Barrett replied with exasperation. He had such a serious look on his face. It was slightly at odds with his tank and tropical shorts.

"Well care to tell me how we do that without having sex? Yeah it was fun but I am not having sex just to figure this out." I stood up and started to pace. I know I sounded cantankerous but my life was changing by the hour it seemed. I had a right to be irritable. Taking a deep breathe and releasing it slowly, I tried to think analytically. Maybe teleporting was like a Wizard of Oz thing, like if I thought about it hard enough maybe I could do it again. Okay time to get serious. I was gonna try to make it to the guy’s bathroom.

Hey Vita how does this teleport stuff work? I figured I might as well ask. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner. I guess it was taking longer than I thought to get accustomed to having someone else in my head. Hopefully, I would eventually get the hang of it.

As I told you before I do not know the extent of your powers, and I only know how to use a few. I can not be helpful at this time. You will just have to figure it out. She sassed, dashing my dreams. Well damn! I would have to figure this out on my own because I could not be transporting myself all over the place by accident. Why couldn’t I have gotten a helpful demon? Fucking Vita was going to be a handful. I needed to get this settled so I could get back to the case. I had children to find.

"Uh Gwen? You okay there? You kinda spaced out." Ethane’s voice broke me from my thoughts. I was gonna have to work on that, I probably looked ridiculous spaced out talking to myself.

"Yeah I am fine. Just talking to the demon in my head, and yes, I know how crazy that sounds. Now y'all just be quiet and let me concentrate." I instructed as I sat down on the bed next to Barrett and Draven. I sat with my legs criss-crossed and closed my eyes, focusing on my breathing. I could feel both of their legs pressed against mine. They were so warm and smelled so nice. Okay enough of that. It was time to focus on teleporting to the guy’s room. I thought about the bathroom. How cold the tile floor would be under my feet, the cream colored walls, and about how the last time I had been in there it was with Barrett. I could smell his woodsy smell as I was breathing. I felt a tug in my stomach, and then something cold and hard on my butt. Opening my eyes, I saw that I had made it to my destination.

"Hell Yes!!" I yelled in excitement thinking of all the places that I could go and all the things that I could do now. Maybe being a demon wasn't all bad. Now I had to focus and try to pop back to my room. I focused again on the mental picture of my room and once again I felt that tug in my stomach and landed on my bed with a bounce. Opening my eyes I could see all the guys just staring at me. I was so excited that I had to keep myself from getting up and jumping around like a five year old who had just gotten a new toy.

"Well I'll be damned. I have never seen anything like that. One second you were sitting there and the next you were gone, then poof you were back." Donovan looked at me in awe.

"I think we all need to talk about what we are gonna do. I know that if Paraoffice finds out about you they will hunt you down and experiment on you. I say we work this case and go from there." Barrett said taking charge. It was not surprising seeing that he seemed to run the group. All of the guys nodded in agreement and looked to me as I was the deciding factor. He was so gorgeous standing there. My face flamed as I remembered the events from earlier.

“I think that sounds like a good idea. I say that we call it a night and reconvene about the case in the morning because I am exhausted.” I hated to admit weakness, but what I said was the truth. I guess all of my flaming and teleporting stuff had taken a lot out of me. I really just wanted to lay down in my comfy king-sized bed and sleep for a week.

“I think one of us should stay with you to make sure nothing happens in your sleep. Especially since we really know nothing about what you can do other than what we have found out so far.” Barrett responded giving me one of his serious I am the boss looks. God. He was so sexy when he did that.

“Yeah, you are probably right. I think Ethane should stay tonight since he is the only one I haven't really spent any time with.” I had no energy for funny business, but I could so go for some cuddling. I couldn't remember the last time that I had just cuddled with anyone besides my cat.

“Sounds good to me. Call if you need anything.” Barrett’s voice sounded tired as he rubbed his hand over his face. I’d noticed that he did that a lot. I wonder if it was a subconscious kind of thing. The guys all looked at me like they wanted to say more, but thats all they did before following Barrett out the door.

“I usually sleep in the buff, but my boxers will do tonight I guess.” Ethane’s declaration broke the silence as he started getting undressed. He took off his shirt first and I could see he was as perfectly defined as I had imagined. His chest had no hair and looked so smooth that I just wanted to reach out and run my hands down it. He even had that sexy v that led down into his shorts that came off a few seconds later. He had muscled legs that traveled up to some tight fitting boxers where I could see the outline of his package. What a drool worthy package it was. It was a shame that I was so tired and couldn't take advantage of the ridiculously hot man in front of me.

“Um. I’m just gonna go put on a night shirt and then lay down. Make yourself comfortable.” I stuttered back to him. These damn men were going to be the death of me. I got up before waiting for a reply and headed to the closet. I grabbed out my too big Star Wars shirt with a giant face of Darth Vader on it and headed to the bathroom. I was still shocked every time I saw myself in the mirror because it was just such a major difference than what I was used to. I undressed and slipped on my shirt. I had never been able to sleep in a bra. The damn things had to have been made by men to torture women. I looked anything but sexy which was what I had been going for. I made my way back into the bedroom to see Ethane was sprawled out in the middle of the bed watching what looked like House Hunters on the TV. Considering the day I had, it was so normal that I felt myself completely relax as I pulled back the covers and snuggled in close to him.

“I would have never guessed you for a HGTV guy. I figured you would like more action style stuff." I said as he lifted his arm up so that I could lay my head on his chest. He smelled like wild magic. It was intoxicating.

"Well before I started working with the guys, I was a woodworker. My grandad owned a shop and I helped him out. I always liked it, but I just felt that with my magic I could be doing more. So once all the supes came out I signed on to work with Paraoffice. I have always loved renovation stuff though." His confession shocked me. He fit in to the group and his job so well that I couldn't imagine him as a woodworker. I felt myself starting to doze to the sound of his rhythmic heartbeat. I thought I felt a soft kiss to my forehead but I was so out of it that it could have been a dream. I fell asleep thinking that I really hoped it wasn’t my imagination.
