THE CHILLING TOUCH of the midnight air caresses the soft skin of my cheek. The minute hand struck at exactly 3am. I am in the middle of my own hypnosis as my bedroom window slammed the window pane. 

 

It suddenly opened my eyes without warning. Nauseated, still trying to grasp the reality in front of me. I whirled my head and scanned across the room but I couldn’t see a thing.

 

But regardless of the blank space it felt like a huge mass is pinning my body. I can literally feel the cushion of my bed arched a bit. Until my legs spread instinctively. 

 

“What is happening to me?” I gasped.

 

Strangely, a tingling sensation from my slit sends signals down my spine. My legs jolted as my hair strands stood still all over my body. I suddenly lose control of myself.

 

“Oooh!” I breathe heavily as my keeps moistening. I tried to touch it but my arms were locked up on the cushion with no chain. 

 

I glanced downwards and suddenly I realized I am lying on my bed . “What the ?” I started to panic as I try to move my body.

 

I knew I tucked myself in last night fully clothed and now they’re all gone. My heart beats faster than a millisecond now. Shame covers my body despite of me being alone.

 

Then in just a snap, Something happened that made my eyes opened wide enough to see the entire ceiling. The darkness of the room finally showed a shimmer of light as a hard, long piece just entered my womanhood.

 

In and out it s the insides of me. My mind tells me to keep fighting yet my body seemed to be welcoming. As the air keeps pounding my , my fear slowly turned into lust. A desire that wrings out of my flesh. 

 

And from that moment I didn’t care. All the inhibitions have been set aside for the meantime. All I want is for this unexplainable, invisible element to keep ing. The entire night made me wanting more till I drift-off.

 

***

BEEP!!!

 

My eyes opened with the sound of my alarm. I reached it with my hand as my sight is battling through the sunlight coming through my window. My head feels heavy as I move it from side to side.

 

Then suddenly, the mysterious exposure I had last night suddenly came back to my senses. I lifted my comforter and peak underneath and found myself in my pajamas.

 

“Was it just a dream?” I have never been so confused my entire life. I know what I felt was real and yet, it isn’t. I’m supposed to be happy that it was just a dream. But why am I feeling heavy, covered with discontent.

 

Something tells me that I wish it was real. In the back of my head recognizes the hope that’s growing inside me. A whisper in my ear made me utter, “Please come back.”

 

I brushed it off my mind when I heard noises from the streets. I had to make myself believe that nothing happened. I got off the bed and do my morning routine. Everything is going back to just another regular day until I got into the shower.

 

I startled when I took off my . The thin cloth was soiled with my white and had been wet throughout the night.

 

***

“CINDY, can I come see you?” I asked hoping that my best friend is available to spend some time with me. I really need someone to talk to right now about the situation. Someone I can trust. My mind is still at a blur while waiting for my best friend to respond.

 

“Why what’s wrong? Is everything Ok? You sound scared,” Cindy uttered.

 

“I’ll tell you everything later. Are you free tonight?”   

 

“Yeah sure. Just text me the place and what time.”

 

I sighed as soon as I hung up. I dressed up and went to work. Every minute that passes seemed like days of my life. If I can just fast forward it to night time. Anxious to what Cindy is about to say. More anxious to find out if it’ll come back.

 

I HOPE IT COMES BACK. 

 

The sooner the sun sets, the more my heart stomped. I can feel my blood rushing through my veins as I am on my way to see Cindy.

 

I entered the café swarmed with a lot of buzzes coming from the chatters across the hall. I surveyed the entire room to look for my best friend. But there she wasn’t.

 

So I decided to get a table for two, with a mind still occupied with the thought of last night. Unnoticing, I found myself scouring the people in the café, thinking if they had a moment of something so magical yet so terrifying just like I had.

 

Minutes passed and finally, a familiar face entered through the door. I smiled just by seeing Cindy. Comfort has finally enveloped me which was absent all throughout the day.

 

I raised my hand to get her attention. She nodded as our eyes met and she hurled towards me. “Helen what’s wrong? I was worried when I heard you on the phone this morning?” Cindy’s eyes scream for tension as she hugs me tightly.

 

The warmth of her body just made me feel secure. We sat and ordered a few drinks. Made a few small talks till we get down to business.

 

I told her exactly what happened the night before. From the moment I opened my eyes till the time I closed them. I laid down every detail. Inch by inch. Moment by moment. I was mumbling across her face while filling her in. Then it made me stop after hearing her say,

 

“We do it all the time Helen. Relax!”

 

What the hell was she saying. Here I am dreaded of my own horror while here she is, unabashed of what she just uttered.

 

“What do you mean we do it all the time?” I asked. Cindy just smiled and held my hand as she leaned towards me.

 

“You are fine Helen. Trust me,” she said. I just nodded with a demented mind.

 

We stayed up for a few more hours and had a few more drinks. My head is already spinning when we both agreed we had enough for the night.

 

“You’re gonna be ok Helen. Alright?” Cindy said as she touches my face. Her eyes are so assuring as she stares at me. The smile on her face gives me certainty.

 

So I held her hand and smiled back at my best friend. Nodding. Agreeing to something that I’m not even sure if that’s what I really wanted. What if, I don’t want to be ok? What if, I enjoy being ed by someone I do not see.

 

All I know is that the thing that happened to me last night was unusual. And that is enough for me to keep wanting more. 

 

I got home with the thought of what Cindy said to me. I wanted to ask her if she had felt the same thing but I didn’t get the courage.

 

My head was heavy when I got to bed. My heart’s pounding as I get ready to shut my eyes. Wondering if I would get awake in the middle of the night with a stuffed . I took a deep breath and finally fell asleep.

 

***

MY EYES OPENED from the growling sound coming from the kitchen. I looked to the side to see the time on my clock. It is 2:55. I get up and followed the sound.

 

My heart is about to get off my chest as the sound gets louder every step I make. I am breathing heavily as I walk towards the kitchen.

 

I stopped as soon as I enter the room where the sound comes from. It was the microwave. Fear suddenly engulfed me. “Who’s there?” I uttered with a terrified voice.

 

I grabbed a knife and held it tightly as I switched off the microwave. All my senses are wary. Ready to swing to a possible attacker.

 

Till a loud sound banged off my window. I dropped the knife and went to a state of shock. My entire body started to chill as I walked across the hall to see what’s causing the noise.

 

And there I saw my window crashing. The horror intensifies as I can no longer take another step. Electricity started to run through my skin. Until I slowly felt my legs down my ankles tighten. It seemed like something is grabbing it.

 

And in just a snap, my entire body got pulled back towards my bedroom. My chest slammed on the floor as I crawl backwards. I waggled my arms trying to hold on to something as I scream for help.

 

Without warning, that thick, long thing I was thirsty for suddenly entered my body. My cry slowly switched into loud moans as I get ed violently while in all fours.

 

“Aaah! ! More!” My juices started to flow off my . My s harden as I can feel someone is pinching it invisibly. My head gets into oblivion as my s gets fondled by thin air.

 

The tingling sensation freezes my body. Blood gushes through my veins as my walls gets ed rapidly. My moans are coming from everywhere as I am reaching .

 

I lost track of time. My is starting to soar yet my body keeps begging for more. My juices are edging off my hole getting ready to explode. I was panting as I savor the thickness of whatever’s inside me.

 

And in a blink of an eye, my body jolted as my surged feely down my thighs. My body fell on the floor as my arms went numb. All the energy got out of my body. My head starts to spin all of a sudden until everything fades.

 

***

MS. JAMISON, TO THE DOCTOR’S OFFICE NOW PLEASE.

 

“Ms. Jamison? Ma’am?” A voice caught my attention and saw a woman behind the front desk staring at me. 

 

“You may enter the room now Ms. Jamison,” the woman uttered as she extends her hand toward a doctor’s clinic.

 

I looked around and saw pregnant women sitting across me. I scoured more until I saw the sign GYNECOLOGIST right above the doorway. How did I get here? Puzzled, I stood and walk towards the room.

 

There I saw a lady dressed in her white gown. She greeted me with a smile as if she knew me for a long time. 

 

“I got great news for you Ms. Jamison,” the doctor said while I’m still in disbelief.

 

“You are 6 weeks pregnant! Congratulations!” she exclaimed. 

 

I froze from what I heard. I don’t even know how to react as none of these makes sense to me. I don’t even remember how I got here.

 

The doctor noticed the confusion from my face. She held my arm and said, “Relax Ms. Jamison. What you’re feeling right now is completely understandable. It’s normal to feel confused, and afraid especially if it’s the first time.” 

 

I left the doctor’s office disoriented. Mortified even more so. How am I gonna tell everyone I got knocked up by air. I wanted to call Cindy but I don’t even know how to tell her. I don’t want my best friend to think I’m crazy.

 

So I went straight home and fired up my laptop. I started to search for events similar to my condition. None of the articles I read made sense to me. I was ready to give up until a word caught my eye. INCUBUS.

 

I typed in the word on the search bar and hit Enter. And I couldn’t believe what’s unfolding right off my sight.

 

I am slowly choking as I read each word. The truth behind the ual nights were unfathomable.

 

“Oh my!” I was horrified when I saw a picture of a muscular man with decaying wings on his back and monstrous horns on his head making love with a woman in her sleep. I couldn’t move as horror starts to crawl all over my body. I am gasping for air as I try to process the thought of getting ed by a demon.

 

I stood up and hurriedly went to the kitchen. I grabbed all the knives I can and brought it to my bedside table. All of a sudden, my dreams are turning into a nightmare. I despise myself for making out with evil.

 

***

HOURS passed and here I am lying on my bed. Trying to fight gravity as my eyes gets pulled to shut. I put on 3 layers of clothes to protect myself. Hiding underneath the thick sheets of my comforter. Thinking of other ways how to drive this thing away until I dozed off. 

 

Get off her body! My eyes opened as I heard a whisper in my ear. I panicked as I saw a man dressed in black sitting on my belly. He was laying his hand on my forehead as my emotions are hysterical.

 

“Who are you? Get off me!” I screamed as I tried to get off the man. I moved from side to side hoping to tip him over but to no avail. Till I saw another guy standing in the corner of the room.

 

“Hang on babe. Be strong!” the man said looking worriedly towards me. Why was he calling me babe? My head started to spin as I am battling against the man pinning me.

 

“Come now Helenina. It’s time.” I glanced at the side as I heard a woman’s voice called my name.

 

“Cindy?” I uttered in disbelief. 

 

Suddenly the man pulled a piece of metal from his side pocket. He held it up till I realized what he was holding was a crucifix. My body reflexes as soon as the crucifix caught my eye.

 

“In the name of Jesus I command you to get off this woman’s body! I command you to stop seducing this woman’s husband. I command you to leave this couple in peace!” the man said in a demanding loud voice.

 

I looked back at Cindy and there I found a woman, fully with scales covering her skin. 2 rounded horns on her forehead with sharp tips. I screamed as soon as I saw the monster. I moved wildly to escape from this captivity.

 

And when I looked back at the man I saw him holding a mirror. I shrieked when I saw myself in the mirror for the first time. I saw a woman similar to what I just saw on the side except, it was my face that’s on it.

 

My mind was perplexed after the revelations. I suddenly stopped moving, Trying to process everything I have just learned.

 

“Come Helenina. It’s time to go,” the woman uttered. I glanced back at here and saw Cindy’s face covered with scales.

 

Suddenly I got off the bed with no force. I walked towards her and looked back at the man on the bed. And there I saw him sitting on the side of the cushion. Exhausted. The other guy quickly embraced his wife who was still in shock.

 

Everything made sense to me now. I remember exactly how it started. How I saw the couple walking, holding hands right of the city park.

 

I quickly noticed the guy and instantly got attracted. I followed them everywhere they went until they got home. For days I’ve been there by his side. Watching every move he makes. Even at their sleep.

 

I remember how I touched his skin during his sleep. his till it hardens. Made him want to make love to his wife. 

 

I recall how I entered his wife’s body. Just to feel his hard inside me. Whispered to his ear that I wanted to experience being forced. A roleplay I always fantasized. Made him think it was his wife’s idea. 

 

I turned my head to Cindy. And realized my best friend’s name wasn’t Cindy after all. “Come Xynthyrh,” I gasped.

 

She smiled back at me and together we left the room.

 

***

It’s a beautiful day. The sun ablaze gracefully through the park. A lot of happy faces. While I am here, waiting, sitting on the bench.

 

As I scanned the field I found two people sitting underneath the shade of an oak tree. Perfectly in love with each other. I can feel the love radiating from the woman’s eyes as she stares at her man. That sight made me smirk.

 

***

I opened my eyes as I felt something brushed my face. I rolled on the bed and found the most beautiful face in my entire existence. “Good morning sweetheart!” said the man from the park.
