Moonlit Love (Relax, I'm A Demon) (Patreon)

((Y/N)'s POV)

It's been two days and I was starting to feel a lot better. Ms. Tamayo said I still could not leave until I was all better, but I felt fine enough to go home. She was not having it and she would sometimes even make me go to bed early. Right now, we were in the middle of a sponge bath again before we have dinner lunch, but i've never seen her eat. The bath was over, and she took me out to dry me off and dress me again. This was the same thing we did for days. Wake up, breakfast, bath time, treatments, lunch, rest, dinner, then sleep. The only thing that was different was what she would do in the moments between those things, and the weirdest one was when she should twirl her finger in my hair to play with me. It was getting harder and harder to read her eyes and she what she was really like, and I don't even know why. I was put on a matt in the middle of the room, and I just rolled my sleeves up.

Tamayo-Wait, right here. I'll be back with a few things for your treatments.

(Y/N)-Ok.

(Tamayo's POV)

There were a few close calls where I almost got caught on my true intentions, but now I think I came up with a way to get past his eyes more or less, but I need to be careful. He's still skeptical and getting paranoid over me keeping him here for what he thinks is only a little longer. I am trying to prepare his body to transform him without it hurting, but that will take months. That's time that I do not have since he will no doubt be on to me soon, so it'll have to do it today to get it over with. I didn't want this to hurt him, and he'll be mad and scared when that time comes, but he'll have me. After I came back and did the treatments on him, this time he was a little sore from the serum I injected him with. I even saw a tear come out of his eye which made him look like a kicked puppy. Something you want to hold and comfort.

<figure></figure>

Tamayo-Sorry... I noticed that your fever is completely gone, but that could only be temporary.

(Y/N)-How?

Tamayo-Your immune system is shoot, so it's gonna be very easy for you to get sick again.

That lie should buy me time until I can inject him again tonight to make him sick all over again. He was looking at me the whole time like he was worried now. I finished the treatments then pulled him into my lap to cuddle and kiss him like any good mother would do until it was time to make him lunch, so I put him to bed to rest for a bit.

Tamayo-I'll make something new tonight and I have a feeling that you'll love it. ~

When I left the room, I couldn't help, but smile to myself in excitement. I started with boiling water then cut my finger a little to drop one drop of blood into the water.

Tamayo's mind-We'll be together fever! I won't let anyone see you, so you won't be in any danger! You'll be all mine! ~

((Y/N)'s POV)

I saw something in her eyes when she said I could get sick again easily, and it was even on her lips, so I was sure she was happy. If she was happy about that then I don't think it was anything good and with her acting weird lately...

(Y/N)'s mind-I need to get out of here. Now.

I got out of bed then snuck down the hall, but the biggest problem is that she is cooking something, so she'll see me if she turns around. When I made it down the hall and around the corner, I saw her, and she was humming a little song until the kettle started to whistle... The mist coming out of it was red.

<figure></figure>

I slowly crept halfway around the room when she suddenly turned to try and get a knife for the vegetables but stopped when she saw me.

Tamayo-Sweetie, what are you doing out of bed?

Her eyes were very hard to read, but I could tell if she caught me, something bad would happen because she was panicking a little. She has the face of a person that looks like they were just caught in a lie. She took one step to me then my body acted on its own when I ran for the door, and she ran after me. I made it outside the front door, but she grabbed my hand until her hand caught on fire a little which made, he let go of me. The fire didn't burn me for reason and stopped when... she was out of the sunlight. I remembered Nezuko would only go out at night and that day I saw my first demon, it was cloudy.

(Y/N)'s mind-Demons can't go into the sun light! They'll burn!

I stopped running since I was safe, but I was going home now.

Tamayo-(Y/N), please! You're not well enough! You have to come back inside! I promise, it'll just be a little longer then i'll take you home! I swear!

I was not listening to her lies anymore and when I reached the gate to get out of here, she said one more thing while crying.

Tamayo-PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE!!! I JUST WANTED TO LOVE AND CARE FOR YOU!!! WAS THAT SO WRONG OF ME?!?!?! YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT DANGERS ARE OUT THERE AND WILL FIND YOU AGAIN!!!

I didn't want to look at her and even after whatever she might've been up to, I did feel bad for her a little. When I turned the corner to walk into town, I heard her crying get weaker and weaker.

(Tamayo's POV)

I could not hold back my cries and cursed that it was morning, so I could not go after him, but I can send my cat after him when they come back. The only problem is that my cat only comes back when Tanjiro has collected blood. My baby was getting farther and farther away while I was stuck here until night.

Tamayo-*Sobbing* *sniffle* I... I'll find you and I don't care what I have to do... YOU WILL LOVE ME!!!

(Timeskip To Dawn)

It was gonna be dark soon and that means that demons were gonna start to come out and Ms. Tamayo was gonna start looking for me. I have to find a place really soon and I have no idea where I was going. Everyone I try to ask for directions back to my hometown don't know where that is or the directions were too hard, and nobody had a map. I was lost, scared, time was running out, and I have no idea what to do. I was tired, my feet really hurt from walking so much, and I could only think about my home and mommy that I just wanted to be at now. When it was finally nighttime, I was so scared that I just curled up and cried against a tree since I wasn't even in a town anymore, just the middle of some stupid mountain.

(Y/N)-*Whimper* M-Mommy.

(???'s POV)

I was off somewhere crying alone to grieve over this nightmare of a 'family' and the day I had trapped in that house with Rui and Father. Many of us just wanted companionship when we turned demons but were denied at every turn. I can't remember what my life was like before as a human, but it had to be better than this. Anything had to be better than this for me if all I wanted to even feel a shred of actual love and when I looked into the pond I was leaning over, I just punched my reflection.

<figure></figure>

Mother's mind-What did I do to deserve this?... Did I always take pleasure in hurting others?... Was I ever loved or even had beautiful name?... What's there even left for me?

Rui was cruel and forced this life onto us. I don't wanna die, I don't want to live like this... What can I even do?! I hate this! I hate everything about this God forsaken mountain and bootleg family! Tears came out of my eyes more and more until one of my spiders found someone nearby and this feeling... It was a human.

Mother-... Maybe I just need to blow off some steam.

I conjured more spiders to tie this human up then felt that this human was very small, so they were most likely a child. I'll head over there myself to see them with my own eyes before I make them go through a slow and painful end. They will feel the pain I felt. When I finally made it to where the child was tied up by my spiders and forced to be hold their arms a legs out to make them understand that they were at my mercy, I saw the child and how they were crying from fear.

<figure></figure>

They didn't notice me at first and just I thought about breaking one of his fingers they spotted me... Something made me stop before I could hurt him.

Mother's mind-Blue eyes... They look so... familiar. Where have I seen those before?

I felt something in my heart, and it was like it knew something I did not... I need to speak with this child.

((Y/N)'s POV)

I saw someone in the darkness, like they were a shadow until they came into the moonlight and I could see them... IT WAS ANOTHER DEMON!!!

<figure></figure>

I tried harder to break free, but nothing was working, and she was only getting closer until she was right in front of me, so I just closed my eyes. Anything could happen now, but all that happened was that my chin was lifted up.

???-Open your eyes again. Let me see them.

Her voice sounded pretty, but a demon can be very tricky, so she might want to rip them out. I kept my eyes shut and tried to turn away from her, but she made me turn back to her.

???-I said open your eyes! Now!

I did what she said and looked her again, expecting to see an evil look. She was kind of angry, but I think she was also curious. As she rubbed around my eyes, I wanted to close from her being too close to touching them, but I knew she would be very mad. She might even try to eat me.

???-Who are you and what are you doing here?

(Y/N)-I-I'm (Y-Y/N) and... i'm lost. *Whimper* Pl-Please don't hurt me. *Sniffle*

I looked into her eyes, and I couldn't tell how she felt exactly, but she started being gentler and more like she looked a little sad and confused. She was even crying until she collected herself.

(Y/N)-U-Um... Who are you?

???-I forgot my name a long time ago... I go by Mother now.

Just then she pulled back her hand and I was too distracted by her face to look at her hands and saw strings attached to them. My body went from being spread wide open to wrapped up tight with my arms and legs together. I was about to fall over, but she caught me, and spiders came down her arms and spun webs around my mouth to keep me quiet. I tried to scream for help, but it was too late, and I don't think anyone was nearby to hear me anyway.

Mother-Don't scream or the others might hear you... You're coming with me and if I feel you struggle a tiny bit more in protest in anyway, i'll just wrap you up tighter.

She put me over her shoulder and started to walk off with me.

(Mother's POV)

I know of a cave that was a secret to the others that I only go to on rare occasions, so Rui doesn't find it. Rui and the others should be busy with 'family game night' which was basically a game where you do just slightly odder commands from one another to play old games or Rui punishes you. When we made it there, I pushed the layers and layers of leaves, roots, and vines out of my way then lit the lanterns in here before I put (Y/N) down then had my spiders put a coating of webs over him to stick him to the ground. The light in his eyes just danced with the flames of the lanterns and it made me feel happy and for some reason, safe. He was still clearly afraid of me which just reminded me of Rui which I just hated and did not want him to look at me like that... He's like me. He wants compassion as much as I do... And i'm not sharing it with the others that stab each other in the back just for Rui.

Mother-Don't be afraid... You made me feel something I haven't felt in a very long time. Nobody is going to take you away from me... Not even yourself. ~
