The Penance

In the beginning, an incubus was merely a low-ranking demon who fed on the sexual terror he could inflict upon a human being. But that was before one of them got the idea to turn a human with nothing to lose into the perfect demon feeder.

But everything created will also evolve, and the creating demon never expected his plan to turn out quite like this.

Mason has overcome many struggles since the demon was locked inside him to grow strong. They've found a balance to live together over the past four hundred or so years.

But there's one thing about being human the demon has never experienced—something Mason hasn't experienced until this cycle, either. Being truly loved. With love comes the risk of a broken heart, and that's very dangerous for the lover when the demon doesn't understand it as anything but a threat to the host body.
