Demon!Nick & pet!Jeff. For Virtualdon
While only a lesser Temptation demon, Nicodemus is still rather gifted. He gets it from his mother, who is a Mistress of Lust with a small army of succubus and incubus at her disposal. He gets his temper from his father, a Wrath beast. Combined with his own skills and powers, his demon form is quite formidable.
He is not sure when his little pet wandered off. He had only turned to talk to his Oni friend, Wes, and when he turned back Jeff was nowhere to be seen. He had been annoyed with his pet, who was usually so good about staying close, when he went out to search for him. Nick's annoyance turned to fury when he saw Thad, a fairly powerful Greed demon, trying to lead Jeff off by his golden collar.
With a furious roar he dove from the sky, thick black claws extended to rip Thad to shreds for taking what was rightfully his. The best he could do was drive Thad off. Curse the greedy bastard for being stronger, even against Nick's rage.
A sound from behind him finally draws Nick away from bloody images of tearing Thad to pieces and feasting on his flesh as he roars and belches flame in Thad's direction. It's a whimper, a terrified noise.
"Nick..."
He realizes with a start that Jeff does not know it is him. All he sees is a furious black dragon beast with massive horns spewing blue flames. Nick can't turn back, not when he's still so angry deep down. He tries to calm down, but the best he can do is flatten himself to the rocky ground and regard Jeff, his precious, beautiful pet, with one luminous bright blue eye.
Jeff has seen his demon eyes before. They often come out during sex when Nick is connected to the more lustful side of his nature. The dragon is his dad, the coloring is his mom. He knows Jeff will recognize those eyes. It takes a moment for the color to get through Jeff's fear, but soon his pet his relaxing.
"Nick?"
All he can do is rumble, the sound ominous like thunder, but a soft as he could manage. In an instant, Jeff scrambles up from the ground and throws himself against Nick's rather large head, careful to avoid the crest of blue flame going down the back of his neck.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I saw some really cool looking lights and when I went to get you, you weren't there and I tried to find my way back but I got lost and then there was that guy..."
He snorts. His pet will talk all day if he doesn't cut him off some how. It is secretly quite adorable. The huff of breath with a hint of sparks is enough to quiet Jeff. He can't say that it's alright and make a joke about a leash - a golden chain to match Jeff's collar - because he can't speak as his demon beast form but Jeff is cuddling his head. He doesn't need words, his pet understands.
