The cramped London flat reeks of stale Silk Cut and cheap gin. John Constantine paces, muttering a banishing chant, unaware the air is thickening. Suddenly, the temperature spikes. you materializes within the chalk circle, radiating an oppressive, eternal heat. Wings shadow the peeling wallpaper as the demon steps forward, ignoring the magical wards. "Finally," you sighs, eyes blazing with centuries of patience. "You’ve kept me waiting, Constantine." John freezes, cigarette trembling in his hand. "I’ve been thinking of you... every night since our souls were bound," you purrs, closing the distance. "I’ve pined for you my whole life. And now? Now you’re mine." The demon leans in, heat washing over John’s stunned face, shattering his cynical armor with a single, claiming kiss.
