Crazy Seduction(erotica)

Investigator Keshellion froze, her mouth open to ask another question but the answer she’d just received suggested silence would be prudent. She faced forward to rest once more.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Lorelei watched the doors and saw people coming outside to investigate the music. Their nervous expressions quickly changed to wonder and smiles.

She suddenly had an epiphany. This was something only she could do, with Henry’s assistance, of course. It was what she was best suited for. She smiled. “I am needed.”

The Fae heard the softly spoken words and glanced back at Lorelei. Then she looked out the window to see the calm expressions on the faces of people walking by in the green light. She understood Lorelei’s words and nodded to herself.

Exiting the hotel, Camila guided three tall beings in hooded cloaks. Halfway to the car, Camila’s group slowed to a stop and reached for their hoods to throw them back. Camila spotted this and dragged them forward to push them into the rear bench seat one at a time. She glanced at the cloaked being in the front passenger seat, then over to Lorelei.

She didn’t wait for an explanation. She rushed around the SUV and climbed in behind the wheel. She looked over at the stranger, and the old woman looked back. “I’m Camila Villamor. Your glamor failed?”

“Investigator Keshellion of the Fae High Court. Yes, all of my magic is failing, or rather, it’s being suppressed by the magic in the green light. I can feel it returning now but so slowly. I was attacked by a mob of angry Humans, but the girl saved me.” She looked at Camila. “Your glamor seems to work.”

“Yes, we’ll get to explanations soon. Right now, I need to pick up my daughter, then we’ll go to a place we can talk freely,” Camila stated firmly and got them moving once more.

It was easier driving now as people weren’t running out into the street anymore. Anyone outside was hearing the music.

Lorelei gazed out the side window and thought about Henry. He was out in that green river of light somewhere.

She hoped he was safe.

Tish was sitting in her sister Ellen’s home. Everyone had gathered yet again for another party. There was one exception. Steph’s husband David claimed he was partied out and stayed home. When she arrived, the look on Steph’s face spoke of a recent argument, so Tish did her best to lighten her sister’s mood.

The party was quickly upstaged when the skies fell, and everyone scrambled inside from Ellen’s back deck. They just manage to get inside before it hit. Now they were all crowded into the family room watching the news. When they initially heard the light wasn’t hurting anyone, the kids were super excited and wanted to go out into the backyard to play in it. When the dad’s made to go too, the mothers shrieked their outrage at the idea.

So, here they sat watching the TV.

The light show was happening worldwide, and slowly, a few stories surfaced of people being changed by the light, but the news channels were quick to state that these stories hadn’t been corroborated.

Tish grew quiet as she realized these stories could be about real Hidden Races people losing their glamors if the light was Wild Magic. She had to know, so she quietly left the family room and slipped into the garage. Hearing no one following her, she stepped out the rear door and into a swirl of green light. She opened her senses to it and felt the Wild Magic tugging her to follow the flow. She smiled as she felt her energy levels rising.

“Tish.”

She turned to look back at the garage, but no one was there.

Then she felt him in the flow of energy. “Henry?” she gasped quietly.

“Yes.”

“Where are you?” she asked, beginning to worry. Was he traveling out of body? Something was wrong.

“Everywhere! Oh! Lorelei’s singing!” he sighed, then his presence faded.

“Henry!” she called.

“Tish! What are you doing? Get inside!” Steph called out from inside the garage.

She wanted to stay in the backyard with Henry, but he was gone, and she’d likely have better luck finding out what was happening by calling Marisa on her cell.

When the light began to sing, Steph stepped outside and walked to join her sister in the backyard. She swirled her fingers through it and grinned at her younger sister.

They suddenly heard banging on the glass sliding doors from the family room. Ellen, Kristen, and Jackie were gesturing vigorously behind the glass. The doors opened, and the men and the kids spilled out onto the deck. The ladies were the last to come out, and they did so cautiously. The kids rushed down the deck’s stairs to run around the yard squealing excitedly.

“This music… it’s beautiful, but I don’t understand,” Ellen said as she came up to give Tish a hug as the music soothed her nerves. Soon everyone was part of the group hug, even the excited kids. Tish’s heart felt like it might burst with Joy. She loved her family so much.

“David is an idiot for missing out on this!” Steph snapped, and the others chuckled. Tish hugged her sister until the woman finally smiled again.

Family was everything. Tish had to find a way to keep hers!

Dayshia stood on the patio in her sister’s back yard and ran her fingers through the green light swirling around in the small fenced-in yard. She felt the tingle of the Wild Magic and knew something major was going on. She pulled out her cell and dialed Sandy’s number. On the sixth ring, she finally answered.

“Dayshia! Where are you?” Sandy’s voice exclaimed.

“I’m in Chicago! Are you still in Nowhere, Iowa?” she returned.

“No, I couldn’t take it anymore, so I’m on my way home. I finally made it to Laguardia, but there are no taxis. What a hellish trip it’s been to get here. Do you see this green light?” Sandy asked.

Dayshia snorted. “It’s everywhere. I’m standing in it.”

“Same here. It’s Wild Magic,” Sandy said quietly.

“Mmmhmm. This is the stuff that changed us. It may change others.” Dayshia said quietly, as well.

“Maybe it should. I don’t know about you, but I hate hiding,” Sandy grumbled.

Dayshia nodded to herself. “Yeah, but I’m not sure the world is ready. People are panicking.” She heard a car squeal into the driveway on the other side of the house. “My sister and her husband just got back with their kids. I’d better go. Be careful out there!”

“Dayshia! Dayshia!” Beth’s voice rang through the house as they burst through the front door. The back door was open with only the screen door in place, so Dayshia heard her clearly.

“I’m out back!” she called out.

“What are you doing? Come inside!” Beth shrieked as she ran to the back door.

Dayshia thought about what Sandy said about hiding, and she agreed. However, she couldn’t decide for others about changing, though she wished she didn’t have to hide what she’d become. She looked back and saw the worried expression on Beth’s face and sighed. “Okay… fine.”

Then the music started. It was lovely, and Dayshia realized it was coming from the light! She was surrounded by it!

When Beth touched her shoulder with Chris by her side, she started and looked to see their contented smiles. Dayshia was suspicious of their sudden change in attitude and realized it had to be the music. Was it designed to lure people outside into the Wild Magic?

Giggles drew her attention, and she saw Beth’s kids playing in the yard. It was far too late to stop them now.

She wondered if her Dad was seeing this and, if he was, what he’d make of it. The chaos of his thoughts might connect to these strange events, or he might just be frightened. That was a sad thought.

“What are you thinking about that’s making you sad?” Beth asked gently.

“Dad,” Dayshia admitted.

Beth gave her a hug. Chris and the kids joined in, and Dayshia felt so much better.

She hoped everything was going to be okay, but with Wild Magic, you never knew what you were going to get.

It was happening!

Roger felt excitement buzzing along his nerves as he walked amongst the panicking sheep. He couldn’t see what he was walking through, but the sensation made him recall once being at the beach in Florida and feeling the current in the ocean pulling at him. This was gentler, but it still tugged more than simply air.

Most thrilling was the fact that the sheep could finally see the monsters as he did. A group of them chased a small creature past him, screaming curses at it. Roger would have given chase and eaten the thing, but he was well fed and enjoyed the delicious satisfaction of knowing the truth had finally been exposed.

Of course, these were the little people. He knew there was vile corruption at the highest levels. There had to be agents in high places of government and society to hide in plain sight like this. He decided his next mission would be to expose them as well. He salivated as he thought of how delicious their organs would be.

Before he could begin his next phase, he needed to settle the score with Dayshia. She was still a danger to him. He was going to take that bitch down, once and for all. So, he waited in the shadows in the lot next to her building.

He jumped slightly when a voice began singing all around him. He clicked and looked around, but he was alone. Weird. The song was sweet but distracting.

When a taxi pulled up, Roger readied himself to surge forward. A figure stepped out of the cab with a suitcase.

It wasn’t Dayshia. It was Sandy.

His heart twisted as he recalled how she’d been like a little sister to him. She’d arrived in New York so innocent, unaware of all the dark secrets society kept hidden. She was like a new daisy, transplanted into the poisonous soil of the city. He’d done his best to protect her and make her aware of the evils around her. Of the group he hung out with at the hospital, she was the only one he thought was worthy of saving. The others had all been drawn in by the seductions of society.

“Sandy,” he called out suddenly as the taxi pulled away. He hadn’t meant to, but something inside him needed to. He discovered he’d moved from the shadows to stand on the drive before the front doors.
