Kasadya Hellhound Awakened Read online

  ***

  “Kas, wake up, man!” I heard Nanini, grabbed the lifeline, and flew awake. I was gasping like a fish out of water. She and Lada were sitting on my bed, looking at me with concern.

  “You okay, Kas?” Lada asked, looking me up and down, trying to find the problem.

  “Yeah, just had a really bad nightmare,” I replied and placed my head in my hands, trying to get the freaking picture out of it.

  “Man, you were screaming and moaning and stuff,” Nanini pitched in, sitting still for a change.

  Embarrassed, I just put my head back into my hands. No way in hell was I going to tell them about me making out with a demon.

  “You want to talk about it?” Lada asked, and I felt her hand on my shoulder.

  Pull it together, Kas. I raised my head to look at the two of them. “Na, don’t worry. It was just a dream,” I soothed with a forced smile.

  “Well, at least it’s morning, so no worries about sleep,” Nanini said, gesturing to our window where the first sunbeams peeked in.

  “Yeah, I’ll take on Chax any day before another nightmare like that,” I replied and lifted the covers off me to start a new day of my freaking cursed life.
