CHAPTER TWELVE

BROOKE'S POV

We all sat at the dinner table quietly. The clanking of forks and knives across plates being the only thing that could be heard. It was intense and the tension was thick in the air. I on the other hand got death stares by two women now. I guess one death stare wasn't enough. Why does the females from this place hate me so much? Or maybe I'm not likeable.

Why do you care if they like you or not. They are obviously jealous of us.

Lilith says inside my mind. We had a weird way of talking telepathically. I didn't know I could do that. She still wants to take over my body but I manage to keep her at bay.

How are they jealous of us? Have you seen them? They are both gorgeous. Model thin bodies and pale skin. Look at us ... We are brown skinned and fat! We should be the ones who's jealous.

But Enoch doesn't want them. He wants you that's why they are jealous. You have something they don't have. And girl we are not fat. It's called being curvy. Stop saying we are fat.

She scolds and I couldn't help but chuckle lightly. Making everyone on the table turn towards me. "Sorry." I say as I continue to munch on my food.

"Brooke?"

"Mmmh?" I turn my attention towards Enoch who was sitting beside me. As I chew my food nonchalantly. He was sitting where Asmodeus sat that night. And to be honest I wasn't quite comfortable with it. I don't think I'll ever forget that night.

Oh! Get over it.

Lilith says as I roll my eyes getting a confused expression from Enoch.

"Are you ok?" He asks as he places his hand over mine.

"Yeah I'm good. It's just Lilith that's annoying me. Nothing to worry about." I smile nervously at him.

"Okay."he says as he gently rubs my hand drawing circles. This didn't get nice looks on the table. "I think I still have some explaining to do. About your question yesterday." Oh yeah I had forgotten about that. He then turns to the strange blonde bombshell who was sitting next to Ivy. "This is Anna. I'm not sure if she's the Anna I used to know but I had a wife who looked exactly like her. But she died ten years ago." He says as he maintains an intense eye contact with Anna. I could see the sadness and denial in his eyes. Making me wonder what history they had with eachother.

"But how is she here if she died years ago?" I ask my curiosity taking the best of me.

"That I don't know." He says defeated.

"Ofc you do Enoch! Stop pretending!" Anna suddenly gets up from her chair. Her face burning red with anger as she looks at me and then at Enoch. "Ooooh I get it. You are denying me because of her."she points towards me. I honestly didn't want to get in between their feud but I guess the heavens hate me right now.

"Don't bring Brooke into this shenanigans of yours. She wasn't there." Enoch yells at her as his eyes shift to a black colour. That intimidating dominance of his present in the air.

"Tell me right now you don't love me Enoch!" She yells back as tears start streaming from her eyes. I couldn't bare that sight. I felt horrible and guilty. As if all this was my fault.

"Excuse me." I say as I quickly stand up and leave the room. Heading towards the balcony outside. I desperately needed some fresh air. The air inside there was stuffed.

"Are you okay?" I turn around to find Blake slowly approaching me.

"No I'm not. I feel as if it's my fault." I say as I lean on the stone rail staring at the bright moonlight.

"Ofc it's not. You weren't there when it happened. Anna is just trying to find something to get angry at. She has always been like that." Blake says as he places his hand on my shoulder.

"Is she the real one? I see Enoch has some doubts. He's the one to know if she's the real deal." I say as I stand upright turning towards Blake.

"Your right about that." He says. I scan his body seeing he had a robe on with nothing underneath. The moonlight illuminated his skin perfectly. He almost looked like he was shining.

"What's with the robe?" I ask as I look up at him to find he was smirking. Did he notice me staring.

Ofc he did dumbass.

Shhh! Stop interfering with my thoughts.

And you stop talking in your mind. Your disturbing my peace!

I roll my eyes at Lilith comment. "Is it Lilith again?" Blake asks. And I nod my head. "How do you deal with your demon?" I ask as I see a sparkle in his eyes. "Me and my demon are complete opposites. My demon is more of an introvert while I'm an extrovert. So he doesn't really talk much. The only time he comes out is when I'm feeding. But he's quite romantic when he's horny." He smirks as he scans my body lustfully. His eyes become dilated with every move. "You never umm answered my question." I say trying to change the topic. "What question? I don't remember." He grins as he slowly starts walking towards me. I back away slowly until my back hits the wall. "The o..one about your robe." I was a stuttering mess. But who could blame me. I was being pinned onto the wall by a very seductive demon human. He slowly tilts my head so that I could look at him. I see that his eyes were black and his canines were sharp. "I wear it because it's comfortable. Just like you are in your PJ's tonight. It's comfortable like that right?" I nod my head too stunned to talk. He shakes his head, "words mamaa. Words." He says his mouth now on my neck kissing slowly. "Ye...yess." I breath out as I immediately bite my lip to suppress the moans that were about to escape my mouth. Being horny was an understatement. I was drenched already. I could feel the short I was wearing getting wet with every kiss he gave me.

"Brooke? Are you out here?" We suddenly hear Enoch's voice as his footsteps approach us swiftly.
