Cam 51- Poison and passion

I sit dumbly as I try to think of a diplomatic way to say that Ryann is just completely wrong. Either resisting Incubi is totally impossible OR Harry has way less control than she thinks.

“Ryann… Are you totally sure about Harry being controlled?” I ask quietly. She nods.

“Sure, he’s an expressive person, but I think that’s part of how he manages his emotions. He lets them out so he doesn’t let out his magic. It makes sense to me at least.” She hesitates a little, probably because she’s making a lot of assumptions there.

“I can sort of see that.” I agree. It’s starting to feel a little weird talking about Harry like this. Was it a mistake to basically go to his friends to get info on him? It’s starting to feel a little creepy. It was fine when I was asking about Incubi in general, but asking about Harry… I feel like this is something that I should be talking about with him. Still, maybe I’m just vulnerable

to Incubi magic because I’ve never been around it until him. Is that a thing?

“Is it possible to be especially weak to Incubi magic?” I ask, I can feel heat in my cheeks as

they blush red. I do my best to ignore Megan’s snickering and Darrien’s smirk. Aaron actually

the group he’s the only one not making me uncomfortable right now. His silence that is usually imposing is now comforting. I risk a small smile at him and he gives a small nod. Yeah, he knows what he’s doing. Ryann takes

if you’re drunk you might be to it, but alcohol would make you weaker to most magic, I mean it’s technically a poison, right?” She smiles awkwardly, probably remembering

shouldn’t. The only Incubi I’ve really been. around is Harry so I haven’t had a chance to build up resistance either. I’ve almost never felt anything from him other than the occasional happy vibe. I like to think of it as Harry manages to control like ninety five of the emotions he has around me so I just feel a little of his magic. Of course you’re going to feel way more, he HAS way more feelings around you and I suspect that he has less control around you because he’s probably more relaxed around you. I mean imagine trying to stay in control of your emotions and magic

so bad in your case? Particularly since you apparently feel the same way about him anyway. It might make your emotions more intense, but if you didn’t actually feel those emotions they wouldn’t last more than a few minutes. His magic is pretty focussed on you, he probably isn’t doing it on purpose or anything. He just loves you and that makes it hard for him to hold himself back. He usually avoids people when trying not to share his emotions

around other Incubi. They’re also saving Harry can’t make people feel things he doesn’t

at least focussed on someone, won’t really have magic that works on other people?” I ask, trying to see if

out some kind of feelings of attraction to any remotely appealing person. He’s good at seeing the good in people. But why would he want to? He might enjoy the attention, but he is loyal. So I wouldn’t worry about it.”
