Exorcist Servant: Demon Hunter

Caleb's face grew pale, his large brown eyes fluttered, his lips parted slightly.John felt a wild urge to kiss him, to soothe the sting of those words.

no.Caleb was depending on him now, and he couldn't take advantage of it.

"I guessed it," Caleb said with a sneer. "I don't want to be caged; so, I have to cooperate. Perfect government logic."

"Damn it, Caleb, listen to me!" John took a step forward, and he almost missed the man lecturing him hard. "You shouldn't have escaped from the barrier. And how did you do it?"

"I just walked out." Caleb said, but there was a little more hesitation in his unyielding tone.

That sounds bad, very bad. "You just walked out. Let's take a minute to talk about what you did, okay? I'm the best exorcist in the southeastern United States, and you and Ash just walked out of an unbreakable You are saying that the exorcism method that I - and every exorcist here - relies on is ineffective on you. Now do you understand why people are furious when they find out about this Bar?"

Caleb swallowed, the pale Adam's apple on his neck rising and falling, "Then why don't you have one?"

"What about me?"

"Furious?" Caleb grinned. "I mean, there's a big, scary vampire monster inside my head. Shouldn't you put me in silver handcuffs, or call for backup, or run for my life?"

"Oh, that's, everyone says I'm a person who doesn't play cards according to the usual rules." John ran his hands tiredly along his hair. "I trust you."

Caleb stares at him like he's lost all reason. "Why? God, I can't believe myself right now!"

This question can be regarded as the right one, and John now has no way to find an answer to convince himself, let alone others.Maybe everything he's doing now is based on intuition, and it's the worst thing to do.

"Because you haven't given me a reason not to believe you yet," he said finally.

Caleb snorted. "You're a bad enough federal agent." He shook his head, and the corners of his ever-tight lips curled into a slight smile.

The current situation... Well, although it is not completely under control, it is still stable at present, "What non-human spiritual body did you mention before?"

The other party's smile disappeared. "Yeah. I—we—smelled it on the run. It's the demon that Ash found in that abandoned house earlier. Maybe...I don't know, but maybe it killed Ben .Ash said Ben's... still smells of it on Ben's body."

"You choose to believe that Gray wasn't the murderer of Ben?" John had never thought so, after all, all the evidence pointed to the murderer being an early werewolf, but he was still curious why Caleb had changed his mind now. view.

Caleb folded his hands over his chest in a defensive gesture, "I know he turned Ben's body into a loathsome walking corpse. I also know he made me and Melanie unable to give Ben One RIP. I know better that he turned my life into a living hell. But... I don't believe he killed Ben. I don't know how to explain it to you so that I don't look like a lunatic - or that Now it's even crazier—but Hui is too honest. Not out of any moral considerations, but because he doesn't think there's any point in lying. He doesn't understand any skills in dealing with people and things, and doesn't understand that sometimes you can't speak so well. Straight.” Caleb shrugged resignedly. "If he had done that, then he would have told me straight up and would have been baffled that I was so angry."

John half leaned against the bar that separates the living room from the kitchen.It seems he shares Caleb's opinion about Ash.Either they were both being played by the vampire, or his instincts were right this time.He prefers to believe the latter. "Thanks for telling me. So you tried to find this inhuman spirit?"

"Yeah. But trying to no avail." Caleb frowned quickly, as if in response to a voice John couldn't hear, "Too many smells mixed together. We chased it all the way to Batley Street, But after four or five blocks it was lost."

"Damn." Leaving aside the potential threat of Hui, the existence of another non-human spirit body is enough to pose a danger.The werewolf doesn't stop after a murder, "I have a proposal for you two."

A look of disbelief came over Caleb's pretty face. "Oh, that sounds really good."

"It won't be too much. I won't let you sell your soul, it's just your first child."

"That's interesting. Did you learn this snarky skill, or are you gifted?"

"It's just what I was born with. I have many talents that you don't know about." John blinked, seeing Caleb's flushed cheeks with satisfaction. "Although for different purposes, you and Hui both want to find this inhuman spirit body. I also want to find it."

Caleb pushed his hair back impatiently over his shoulders. "What are you implying?"

"We no longer have to focus on finding ways to disperse the ash, but work together to find this inhuman spirit before it kills next time"

Caleb's eyes widened. "You mean the three of us should work together?"

"You two are the 'demon-tracking magic beagle.' Seriously, that skill really helps me, plus you can get out of the apartment."

For a minute, Caleb's attention seemed to turn to the inside of his brain.Then he smiled a little embarrassedly, and held out his hand.

John took his hand.Caleb's long, slender artist fingers wrapped around his, and his hand was strong and dry, and John's pulse quickened. "Ok, deal."

***

A hand on Caleb's shoulder jolted him awake. "Hey, Caleb. Get up."

Blinking sleepy eyes, he sat up to find Starkweather sitting on the edge of the bed.The only sources of light in the room were the electronic clock on the bedside table and the dim light from the open door in the hallway.

Even without adequate lighting, he could still see clearly: the worried look on Starkweather's face, and the T-shirt and overalls he wore before bed had been replaced by a suit and tie.

Great, he has another ability in his eyes.Night vision might have sounded like a good thing before, but it's not a good thing now.

"Night is the best time to hunt. Humans hide in the house and don't look out. The possibility of being disturbed is reduced."

"Still sounds bad," he murmured.

Starkweather switched on the bedside lamp, squinting at the sudden light. "What did you say?"

"Uh, nothing. What's going on? Now—" he glanced at the clock, "it's only fucking two in the morning? Is this some new interrogation method? Because I gotta say, it sucks You can't get a few coherent words out of my mouth without paying for a few big cups of coffee."

"This is not an interrogation. I didn't bring the whip and the handcuffs in the bedroom." Starkweather raised the corners of his mouth, and his eyes swept over Caleb's bare chest, looking at the light-colored nipples and sparse hair. And flat belly, one by one in the fundus.

It's been a long time since anyone looked at him like that.It's as if John wants to throw the blanket off and jump on Caleb the next second.What would he do with Caleb's tits?Bite hard with your teeth or lick gently?Would he put Caleb on the bed and run his hands down Caleb's stomach until his fingers wrapped around Caleb's cock?

no.Can't get enough of this sexy agent, especially while he's still here in person.Caleb pulled the blanket up higher, praying that his erection wasn't as obvious from the outside. "Are you overdressed? Or do you usually sleep with a tie on?"

"It depends on what I'm going to do with it. From time to time, I still take the tie off."

Enough of obscenity or something.

Starkweather withdrew the flirting expression on his face, adjusted his sitting posture, and made the bed creak, "My boss, Director Kania just called."

It must be no good to call at such an early night, "What happened?"

"Another murder case. A few people were partying all night, and a body was found in an alley on Haiwan East Road. The murderer can be judged to be a wolf changer. It may be the murderer who killed your brother."

Despite the blanket, Caleb felt the chill.He hadn't seen what Ben's body looked like when it was still in the morgue.Melanie had seen it, and she had mentioned it to him, but never in detail.He knew it must look bad, but how bad it was, he had never known.

Hui moved, like a tiger wagging its tail. "Are we finally going to hunt this demon?"

"You, you're asking Hui and I to go to the scene with you, aren't you?"

"What can I say? I just can't bear to spend extra money on dates." Starkweather stood up, "When you came downstairs, remember that there is a cup of coffee waiting for you. Hurry up , don't take too long."
