The Incubus System Chapter 1461. A Boyfriend and A Religion
The Incubus System Chapter 1461. A Boyfriend and A Religion
Ruby bit her lip hard enough to leave marks.
“Your fault…”
“Good.”
Her thighs tightened around my waist instinctively after that while my cock pressed against her again, drawing another shaky breath from her lips.
And yeah.
This time I wasn’t letting her control the pace.
Not even slightly.
I moved rougher. Harder. Enough to make the bed creak again while Ruby buried her face against my shoulder with breathless little sounds that only encouraged me more.
Seeing her like this did something deeply unhealthy to my brain.
The clinginess.
The obsession.
The way she looked at me like I was simultaneously a boyfriend and a religion.
Dangerous combination.
Then…
A voice cut through the room.
“Oh look,” Astra said flatly. “I came here to observe.”
…
My soul left my body instantly.
I froze.
Actually froze.
Then slowly turned my head.
Astra floated there.
Midair.
Deadpan expression.
Arms folded.
Watching us like someone witnessing the collapse of civilization.
I physically cringed.
“…Uh.”
Ruby looked entirely unbothered beneath me.
“I can explain?” I offered weakly.
Astra blinked once.
“What exactly are you going to explain?”
Fair.
Very fair.
“You want to say she came to you first?” Astra continued calmly.
I immediately pointed downward.
“That is EXACTLY what happened.”
Ruby grinned shamelessly from beneath me.
“It did.”
Astra looked deeply unconvinced.
“It doesn’t look like that.”
“I woke up getting attacked.”
Ruby kissed my shoulder proudly. “He says attacked,” she purred. “I say adored.”
Astra stared at me for another second before sighing softly.
“You really don’t act as innocent as you look, Ethan.”
I cringed harder.
“I never claimed to be innocent.”
“Your face does.”
“That sounds discriminatory.”
Ruby meanwhile looked delighted by the entire situation.
“This is how he feeds me,” she explained proudly while wrapping her arms around my neck again. “C’mon, Ethan. F*ck me more.”
“Amazing timing, Ruby.”
“Thank you.”
Astra shook her head slowly.
But she didn’t leave.
That was the problem.
Instead…
She kept looking.
Actually looking.
At me.
At my body.
At the mess of blankets and tangled limbs and visible skin and morning heat.
And unfortunately?
I noticed the exact second her gaze dropped lower.
Oh absolutely no.
Because her cheeks slowly turned red again.
My brain screamed internally.
“Astra.”
She blinked once.
Still looking.
“Yes?”
“Why are you still here?”
Astra looked away immediately.
Too late.
Caught.
“…Observation.”
“Observation my ass.”
Ruby burst into laughter beneath me.
Then Astra’s gaze flicked back toward me again briefly.
And yeah.
She absolutely looked at my cock again before realizing what she was doing.
The blush deepened instantly afterward.
What was wrong with angels?
I rubbed my face with one hand dramatically. “So what? You’re just gonna watch us now?”
Astra immediately straightened.
“I am not watching.”
“You are literally floating in my room.”
“I came to call you for breakfast.”
“By staring at my naked body?”
Silence.
Astra looked away again.
“I’ll wait downstairs.”
Then she vanished immediately in a flash of light before I could say anything else.
The room went quiet afterward.
Ruby stared toward the empty space for exactly two seconds before looking back at me with glowing eyes.
“She wants you.”
I dropped face-first onto her shoulder. “I know. But the real question is… why?”
Ruby laughed immediately beneath me, fingers lazily combing through my hair like she was petting an exhausted wolf instead of comforting a deeply confused nephilim.
Before she could answer, another voice came from the pillow beside us.
“…Maybe because she loves you.”
I lifted my head slightly.
Foxy was awake now.
Still in fox form.
Eyes half-open and sleepy while her tails curled around herself comfortably.
Ruby pointed dramatically at her.
“Obviously.”
I groaned into the blanket.
“No, see, that’s the problem.”
Ruby blinked.
“What problem?”
I rolled onto my back finally, staring at the ceiling while my brain tried to process angel logic and failing spectacularly.
If Astra was human?
Fine.
I’d understand.
Attraction happened. Weird emotional chemistry happened. Love-at-first-sight nonsense apparently existed.
But she was an angel.
An actual angel.
And after everything I’d heard?
Rotten apple.
Hybrid trash.
Corrupted.
Anomaly.
Dangerous.
Unwanted.
Somewhere along the way, I’d actually started accepting that logic a little.
Not fully.
But enough.
Enough that part of me genuinely believed the Light Realm would always see me as something wrong.
I wasn’t even angry about it anymore.
I didn’t want the light dimension.
Didn’t want their throne.
Didn’t want their approval.
I just wanted them to leave me alone and let me exist here quietly with my weird little family and emotionally unstable servant girls.
That was all.
So the fact Astra pointed weapons at me yesterday…
Called me dangerous…
Looked ready to kill me and now blushed every time she saw my face?
Yeah.
My brain couldn’t connect those dots.
I rubbed my face slowly.
“Right.”
Ruby tilted her head.
“Right?”
I sighed dramatically.
“She loves me.”
Ruby grinned proudly.
“Yes.”
“We’ll just assume that for now.”
“Good choice.”
Foxy looked at me quietly from the pillow.
“You sound confused, Master.”
“I am confused.”
Understatement of the century.
Ruby sat up slightly beside me and rested her chin on my chest.
“Why?”
I stared at the ceiling for another long second before answering honestly.
“Because angels should hate me.”
The room quieted slightly after that.
Not awkward.
Just softer.
I continued before either of them interrupted.
“Their evaluation of me should start at minus ten, not zero.”
Ruby blinked once.
“That’s depressing.”
“Yeah, well.” I shrugged weakly. “That’s kinda how it always worked.”
Foxy’s ears lowered slightly.
The worst part was how normal it sounded coming out of my own mouth.
Because yeah.
That expectation had been there for a while now.
Demons distrusted the angel side.
Angels distrusted the demon side.
Humans feared both.
So somewhere in the middle I just…
Stopped expecting acceptance from anyone outside this house.
Which made Astra’s reaction feel even stranger.
“I understand attraction,” I muttered. “I get the logic of ‘cute guy’ or whatever.”
Ruby nodded proudly.
“You are very cute.”
“Thank you. Disturbing timing, but thank you.”
“But?” Foxy asked softly.
I exhaled slowly.
“But she looked at me like I was filth yesterday.”
That sentence sat heavier than I intended.
“She summoned weapons,” I continued quietly. “Tried to kill me. Called me corrupted.”
