‘I suggest a deal’ she whispered to him, staring into his amber eyes.

‘A deal? I like it’

‘Yes, you, diabolic dregs, are able to do anything according to a deal…’

‘Diabolic dregs?’ Kharon frowned.

Victoria looked at him being seriously afraid of his next actions. She didn’t know what could happen next, what Antarctica he would throw her in. But Vic was insanely interested in how he would react and what he would do.

Kharon kept on frowning, incinerated the girl with the sly look. Finally, he just smiled.

‘What kind of deal?’ he asked.

‘I want to know what women give their lives for. What do you give them in return?’ the girl’s eyes were burning. ‘I can suggest you live a human life’

‘What does that mean?’ Kharon was looking at the girl imperturbably.

‘That means you will understand what to be a human means’

‘Should I be interested in it? What can be interesting about a human life? Instincts and a couple of clever phrases said for the whole life? A couple of love adventures? Crocodile tears?’

‘Well, you will have a chance to find out.’

‘No, Dear. You cannot have a deal in such a way. I named the price and gave you a right to choose. For the thing that you suggest I can give only platonic love. You will be able to feel body physics only after deal is concluded’

‘You’re so stubborn’ Vic smiled.

‘No, that’s not the point. This is a law and I must follow it. I do my job’

‘Even now?’

‘No, we are drinking coffee now not lying in bed’

‘I saw a spell which could tether you to me…’ Vic gave a hint and scarcely smiled.

The demon smiled, too and a burning flame appeared in his eyes. Kharon squeezed her hand and couldn’t take his eyes off her.

‘A spell which can tether me, right?

‘Yeah’ the girl answered shyly.

‘There are no such spells, dear. Everything that you find in books, internet, in manuscripts is just a described collaboration between the human world and ours. If a demon is in love with an earthborn woman then he certainly can be tethered to her. If he is bored and suddenly hears a tethered spell, he can pretend to be tethered just for fun. But when a demon is tired of the game, human dies. Mostly such kind of spells are executed for boredom. Believe me: it is not always possible to get a demon interested in you’

‘Does it mean that I have no chance to get you to experiment?’

‘There is always a chance. Get me. By the way, your preparatory meeting is over in 15 minutes. The professor has been asked the last question’

‘How do you know all of that?’

Kharon smiled in response. He was so amused by people. He was probably one of the few demonic creatures who had genuine satisfaction in dealing with people. Against their background he looked like an all-powerful giant and people turned into small ants.

Most of all Kharon liked communicating with women. That was understandable, he was an incubus. He was created for female sex. Women deified him and gave their lives with no regret until their minds joined the game.

‘I don’t know everything. For example, I don’t know what you will do in your future. I am perfectly aware of your past, great on the present, but future is beyond even our control’

‘So, there’s a chance to surprise you, isn’t there?’

‘You can do whatever you want. There are no limits except you and your consciousness. Every unlawful limit is your consciousness’

Victoria sighed and looked out of the window. People were going somewhere, speaking about something, they looked interested in life. But in fact, they went with the time slowly without even managing their auxiliary parts. They just floated.
