Incubi (plural of ’incubus’, meaning ’one who lies upon’ in Latin) were thought to be particularly fond of seducing nuns and other women committed to the celibate life. They are no longer applied to dreams about sex, which are of course natural and normal. The words ’incubus’ and ’succubus’ are still used today to describe the sensation of having a weight press down on your chest, accompanied by a feeling of dread and being unable to move while you are sleeping. These evil spirits were thought to pin down and paralyze their sleeping victims in order to have sex with them. In the past, when sexual pleasure was considered sinful, women who had erotic dreams were said to have been visited by the incubus, or male demon, whilst a sexually voracious succubus, or female demon, was said to visit a sleeping man. If you are a woman, you may have suffered an incubus attack if you are a man, you may have suffered a succubus attack.

Confused, fucked-up, bruised, but not cute. It was probably something that would be at my expense, or something I'd just done that he found cute. But I wasn't sure what was funny, and I didn't have the courage to ask. I was happy to see him having a good time, really I was. His eyes were sparkling with laughter as if it were all he could do not to let it out. I could probably count on one hand the number of times Micah had grinned at me. 'Did what?' he said, and he was grinning at me. 'I can't believe that you just did that,' I said.

'Get cleaned up, I'll take care of things here.'

He turned me around by the shoulders, gave me a little push towards the bathroom, and slapped me on the ass. Some of my confusion must have shown on my face, because his smile widened. Of course, I was still covered in blood and other bodily fluids, and none of them were his, but he might not understand that that was why I hadn't wanted to get too close. I realized that I hadn't kissed him hello, I always kissed him hello. “He squeezed my shoulder and smiled at me.
