Na’eemah had a pip in her step as she walked back to her apartment. She found information on her own that she could report to her mother and she’d get even more information by tomorrow night. The walk back to her apartment felt even lighter and more refreshing than the walk she had taken to the park. Once she had made it back to her apartment she flopped onto her bed with a heavy sigh. She felt full of energy and wasn’t sure what else she should do. She thought about going to the temple to pray or practice her magic but quickly dismissed the thought. Finally she decided to call on Allocen.
“Allocen.” She called out loud as she sat up in her bed and rested comfortably against her pillows.
“Allocen.” She repeated slightly louder than her first call.
Suddenly a man appeared in her room. He materialized out of thin air and walked to her side as if he had been walking before he appeared in her room.
“ You called?” He asked with raised brow.
Na’eemah’s heart fluttered. The man was tall and was dressed in loose harem pants and long sleeveless shirt. He had a pair of daggers hitched at his waist as well as a longsword with a double curled design. His cheekbones were high, his eyes the lightest shade of green and his hair was full and slightly untidy. He looked downright sinful. He wasn’t an ethereal beauty one wouldn’t dare approach but instead looked like devilishly handsome and someone any woman would want to ravish. Na’eemah stared at him as he kneeled beside her bed. Allocen took note of her gaze and chuckled, he leaned upward and pressed his lips against hers briefly before saying softly. “Breathe, sweetheart.”
Na’eemah took a deep breathe inward then exhaled. Her mind seemed to defog and she cleared her throat. “You-ah, did I interrupt you?” she asked looking at his weapons.
Allocen followed her gaze and then looked back at her. “ It can wait.”
Na’eemah shook her head. “ No you should finish then come back.”
Allocen tilted his head, silently asking why he should go back.
Na’eemah smiled “ You need to complete your duties for today. You were supposed to go back to heaven a century ago but you got held up because you decided to stay by my side and look after me all that time ago.”
Allocen sighed “ Your safety and wellbeing will always be a priority.”
“Your tendency to care too much and believe others is what landed you in Hell in the first place.”
“How was I supposed to know that Lucifer was going to cause this much trouble for everyone? He had his moments where I thought he was crazy but I didn’t think he was that crazy until I got caught in the crossfire and confusion and ended up being damned to Hell until God thought I learned my lesson.” Allocen pouted cutely his dangerous aura diminishing. “ I got played by someone that was supposed to be my brother.”
Na’eemah patted his head “ But that's why you need to actually do what you were assigned to do instead of running off all the time.”
Allocen grimace “ I’m not running off all the time, I just seem to always find a reason to avoid an annoying task for the day. I think of it as Jehovah looking out for me even while I’m receiving punishment.”
Na’eemah chuckled and leaned over draping her arms over his shoulders. She pecked his cheek.and gave him a beautiful smile. Allocen couldn’t help but return her grin.
“ I don’t have much information for you today. I don’t think that Amara girl has been in Hell for a while. I heard she has a lot of contact with the mortals so that could have something to do with why it’s been so quiet lately. Or Beelzebub and Lucifer are both planning stuff and are trying to be secretive. I’m starting to think that, the Yoruba girl actually instigating anything but just happens to be around when shit goes down. According to another duke she’s quite vengeful and sneaks into Hell just so she could torture slave owners, slave capturers and the like. Do you think we could have been wrong and he’s right?”
Na’eemah shrugged “She’s crazy from what I heard. It’s possible that instead of giving punishment to those in her underworld she chooses to torture those in Hell since that's what they are there for. Look at you sounding concerned about not misjudging people.”
Allocen laughed “ I am a good being I just don’t live in what is considered a good place.”
Na’eemah raised a brow, “ You may not live in a good place but you have me, I can be your good place, and then you’ll be inside a good place.”
Allocen looked at her, his eyes transfixed on her lips. “ That mouth of yours. We need to do something about that.” He mumbled
Na’eemah climbed into his lap. “How do you think we should go about this? Maybe a kiss will fix it?” She suggested
Allocen smirked and pressed his lips against hers. He kissed her softly and Na’eemah smiled into the kiss his beard always tickled her chin. She bit on his bottom lip and deepened the kiss. They took their time as they kissed. Then Allocen lifted Na’eemah with one arm and laid her against her bed, never once breaking their kiss. He was nestled in her hold, her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist. Na’eemah broke the kiss and smiled.
“ Remove your sword and daggers from your waist.”
Allocen looked down at her then chuckled deeply “ That’s not my dagger Na’eemah.” He then looked at a spot on the floor beside her bed and Na’eemah followed his gaze. Indeed his weapons were discarded on the floor. She didn’t even notice when he had done it. Na’eemah laughed loudly. Allocen smiled and laughed with her. His heart swelled. The only other feeling he could compare it to was his love for his God, maybe not as intense and devoted but he felt very strongly for the woman before him. Na’eemah took advantage of his distracted moment and rolled them over on the bed so she was straddling his waist. “ Looks like we both have something to work on.” She said innocently. “ I know a way we can work on both at the same time.”
Allocen looked at her a chuckled “ How can you say things like this so innocently?”
Na’eemah made a cute face. “ I’ll only let you stay distracted for short while and then you must go back and finish what you were doing before I called you.”
Allocen nodded. “ As you wish.” He promised.
Na’eemah leaned down and captured his lips once more and tugged at his top pulling it over arms then over his head as she trailed her kisses down his body....
When she was done having her way with him and Allocen had exerted all of her energy so she was spent, she cuddled up beside him. " I met a young God today he's the son of Aengus and Caer. Apparently this trouble has extended quite far in terms on Pantheons. He said he's going to question his father further and get back to me tomorrow."
Allocen nodded " That's good. I only know whats going on in my own turf and even then since none of us trust each other, my information is limited. Keep going out and speaking to more people. Travel into the woodlands don't they have faeries and all that here? Ask the blood suckers."
"You know some Gods suck blood too."
Allocen rolled his eyes " Just go some of the places vampires like to visit they might know something."
Na'eemah pouted " But why the vampires, there's so many other creatures."
"Na'eemah-" Allocen started
"Uggghhhhh. Fine I'll go. When they kick me out and just dismiss me don't tell me I didn't try."
" You make it seem like they are some elite club that shuns outsiders. They aren't a bunch of preparatory school mean girls."
Na'eemah gave him a look and he coughed " Well, on second thought." He trailed off. They both chuckled and then with a heavy sigh Allocen stood up. Na'eemah stretched out a hand and Allocen tugged on her hand to pull her up and out of the bed. They cleaned themselves of the remnants of their earlier activities and then dressed. Na'eemah pecked his lips and Allocen sent her a wink over his shoulder before disappearing from her sight. She stared at the empty spot for a moment before turning and crawling into her bed. She grabbed a book she had sitting on her side table and began reading until eventually she fell asleep.
