Thanks for reading the first chapter! I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you enjoy this next chapter. I'm still keeping this in Nonhuman, as the demon plays part in all of this, though humans appear as well. As always, please comment! This contains elements of reluctance, bondage and control.

I must have passed out. When I woke up, I was no longer on the platform. I was in a huge bed. Silk sheets beneath me. A warm fluffy comforter over me. The room was dimly lit, lit just enough for me to know I'd never been here before. My body ached. My ass from the spanking, my breasts from the clamps. The rest of me from being used.
Sitting up, I waited for the guilt to kick in. I hadn't wanted any of that. I had said no at first, even begged. Then something happened. It felt like a switch had been flipped in my head and I wanted it. I needed it. I enjoyed it. Even on the brink of passing out after numerous orgasms, I enjoyed it. What did that say about me?
I looked around and didn't see my demon. My demon? Whoa there, Ember. Back the fuck up. He's not my demon. I didn't ask for any of this. I didn't call him. I may have humored Cora, again, with the seance shit, but I didn't call him. He's not my demon.
"Arguing with yourself already?" He said, coming in a door I hadn't spied when I was checking out the room. I yelped and pulled the sheet around my chest more snugly. He laughed at the gesture.
"I have already seen you naked. You don't have to hide. Who do you think bathed you before putting you to bed?" I closed my eyes. Shame and embarrassment flooded me. I don't know why, but the thought of him cleaning me up after all that was more humiliating than the whole pillory thing had been.
He held out a paper bag to me. It had Patty's Cakes logo on it. I snatched it out of his hand. How the hell did he know that was my favorite bakery?! Oh, god, the scone smelled amazing. I pulled it out and bit into it. Cream cheese and raspberries and fluffy scone filled my mouth. I groaned.
"You're beautiful," the demon said, staring down at me. I blushed again, running my hand through my hair, pushing it from my face.
"When Can I go home," I asked between bites. I tried to savor the scone, but I never had the will power to slowly enjoy it. Instead, I was shoving it into my mouth as soon as the last bite was swallowed.
"You have called me and I have claimed you. You will stay here with me." The scone felt like a rock in my throat. I had no idea what that meant. Was I stuck in this room forever? Would I ever see my friends and family again? Would I ever see Trevor destitute and begging for change on the street corner?
A hand ran down my head, playing in my hair. I worked on swallowing the bite that was stuck like glue in my throat.
Oh god, what must my friends think?! I had just disappeared into thin air! Literally! Were they searching for me? Were they blaming themselves?
"The memory has been wiped from their brains. They will remember going to the reunion, but that you were unable to attend. They will go home and slowly you will fade from their memories."
I cried. The left over scone fell from my hand and I buried my face into my hands. The hand left my hair and rubbed my back as my body shook with sobs.
"I want to go back," I croaked, voice muffled from my hands.
He said nothing. Didn't lie or try to placate me. He just sat there, letting my tears fall until they ran out. Hiccups plagued me after my sob session and I struggled to control my breath.
"I will take care of you. You will soon forget them and you will live for only me. I will worship your body as you worship mine. We will be happy."
He stood and held out his hand. I didn't take it. He gripped my upper arm and slowly dragged me from the bed, letting my feet scramble to catch myself. I tried to cover my nakedness with one hand.
"Come, we have more."
