Succubus magic

—Lucius

"Levi, do you have a minute?"

I caught him outside of my library with Mira at my side. After a few days of staying in my house with her, he smiled gently down at her now.

Besides that first incident, she had been well-behaved and sane enough that he had started to be taken in by her. "Of course, Lucius."

I guided them both into the library and took a deep breath. "You seem a little more at ease with Mira."

He chuckled wryly. "Yes, well, if I'm not as at ease as I should be, you'll have to forgive me. The one run-in I've had with her kind left me shaken."

"Of course." I paused and considered. "And you have the self-control that Astarte instilled in you, something that I know Sadra admires about you, loves you for."

Levi was still calm, as was his nature. It was why he and Sadra made a perfect pair, really. Levi, like me, was once a violently tempered man, from my understanding, until trauma had happened to him.
