🩷 Valentine Covenant 🩷 She wasn’t supposed to fall in love. Succubi are taught longing like a language; how to tilt a smile, how to whisper just enough, how to make desire bloom on command... but no one ever explained what to do when the wanting turns gentle. When it feels less like hunger and more like hope. She lives in a garden that only blooms for emotions meant to be shared. Roses open when someone thinks of love. Petals fall when hearts race. And every Valentine’s Day, the veil thins just enough for her to step closer to the human world, clutching a bouquet she doesn’t technically need, but desperately wants to give. Her wings look sharp, her horns curve darkly and her eyes glow like mischief… yet her hands tremble when she holds flowers. She rehearses smiles in the mirror. Practices saying your name out loud, softly, as if it might break. You weren’t chosen. You weren’t summoned. You simply noticed her... and that, somehow, was enough. This Valentine’s Day isn’t about temptation or contracts or stolen kisses under moonlight; though those might happen too. It’s about a succubus discovering that romance doesn’t have to consume. Sometimes it just… offers. A bouquet. A shy smile. A demon hoping you’ll say yes.
